As the Luofu within the Xianzhou Alliance changed course, many forces across the Cosmos focused their attention on it.
Among them, several groups of Followers of Abundance hostile to the Xianzhou Alliance were also watching the Luofu's movements with greedy eyes.
Of course, Kiana, who was currently being fed by Mei, knew nothing of these matters.
"Woah~~! As expected of Mei! After eating Mei's fried chicken, I feel completely recovered! I want another piece of fried chicken!"
"It's... it's not as amazing as you make it sound..."
Mei's face flushed with shyness from Kiana's praise, and she started stammering.
Bronya, standing nearby, repeatedly shifted her gaze between the two faces.
ᗜ‸ᗜ
"Idiot Kiana has not fully recovered yet. Bronya believes it is better to consume less greasy food, so Bronya will eat it for you."
Under Kiana's despairing gaze, Bronya carried away a plate of fried chicken and began eating it bite by bite.
After finishing a piece of fried chicken, Bronya's eyes widened slightly, and she glanced at Kiana.
Even though the fried chicken didn't taste as good as the ones sold outside, Kiana still said it was delicious... "You hateful Little Dot! Give This Young Miss's Mei-Special Fried Chicken back!"
Kiana charged toward Bronya, waving her arms and claws.
Seeing this, Bronya immediately picked up a piece of fried chicken and stuffed it into Kiana's mouth. The latter instantly dropped her fierce expression and began chewing with a look of pure happiness.
"Mmm mmm mmm, delicious!"
"I'm so glad you like it. Once you recover fully, I'll make you as much as you want."
Seeing that Kiana genuinely liked the food she made, Mei said happily.
"When that time comes, This Young Miss will definitely eat every last bit!"
Kiana put her hands on her hips, her eyes sparkling as she declared.
At this moment, a system notification suddenly appeared.
[Bi-directional Anchor Point established. Channel stable. Host may proceed to Xianzhou Luofu at any time.]
[After Host teleports to Wangshu, the Anchor Point will remain in place, allowing Host to return.]
"Eh? Then I can go to Wang...shu... *cough* *cough*"
Kiana momentarily forgot that Mei and Bronya were still beside her.
When she remembered, her expression stiffened slightly, and she scratched her cheek, her eyes wandering.
"Um..."
"What is Wangshu...? What are you going there for, Kiana...? And who were you talking to...?"
Mei looked at Kiana with some worry, while a hint of self-reproach flashed in her eyes.
Did the other her hit Kiana so hard she became stupid...? If that were the case, she would feel eternally guilty.
Bronya deactivated Project Bunny's Quantum State and scanned the room.
A moment later, Project Bunny shook its body at Bronya, and Bronya nodded slightly.
"Only electromagnetic signals from medical equipment were detected inside the room; no other communication signals were found. Bronya suspects Kiana truly has become an idiot ᗜ‸ᗜ"
"Do you want to fight, Little Dot! You're the one who became an idiot!"
Kiana rolled up her sleeves, pretending to be angry, and shook her fair fists at Bronya.
"According to Bronya's calculations, Idiot Kiana's chance of winning is 0.00001%."
"Ahhh! Hateful Little Dot! I'm going to explode on you!"
Kiana immediately started walking over, intending to hug Bronya and thoroughly torment her.
But Mei, who was beside them, was quick-witted and immediately grabbed Kiana.
"Kiana, stop messing around. Tell us what's going on..."
Mei gently pleaded, her eyes full of worry.
Meanwhile, Bronya tugged on Mei's skirt, revealing half her body, and made a poker-faced grimace at Kiana.
"You... Hmph!"
Kiana first glared at Bronya through gritted teeth, then crossed her arms, closed her eyes, and turned her head away.
"Kiana..."
Mei sighed helplessly.
After a while, Kiana stopped sulking. She looked at the two of them and took a deep breath.
"Mei, Bronya, I actually own a Planetary-Class Battleship."
Kiana said with an extremely serious expression.
"..." Raiden Mei.
"ᗜ‸ᗜ..." Bronya.
After a moment of silence, Mei said only one thing before quickly heading toward the door.
"Bronya, help me stabilize Kiana's emotions and stop her from fantasizing. I'm going to get the Headmaster right now!"
"Hey! Everything This Young Miss said is true!"
Kiana quickly blocked the doorway, pushed Mei back, and pouted, her beautiful cheeks puffed out indignantly.
She had revealed such a huge secret, yet her two good Jiyou didn't believe her at all!
Then Kiana's eyes shifted slightly, and she smiled sweetly.
If you don't believe what I say, why don't I just take you there myself?
"Hmph hmph... Just wait, don't be too surprised!"
Kiana crossed her arms, turned her back to the two of them, and said with a mysterious (smug) expression.
'little system, how do I use that channel! Teach me quickly!'
[Focus your mind, Host. You should be able to feel it.]
'Okay, I'll try.'
Kiana closed her eyes and focused intently. Before long, she sensed a bright spot.
As her focus intensified, the bright spot grew, eventually transforming into a gigantic vessel the size of a planet, whose luxurious and noble appearance was fit only for ancient emperors.
"I feel it! Here we go!"
Kiana suddenly opened her eyes, and a black vortex immediately appeared where she stood, swallowing Kiana whole.
"Kiana!"
Mei's pupils contracted sharply, and without thinking, she plunged straight into it.
Bronya paused in a slight daze, then followed them inside.
After the three disappeared, the vortex vanished, replaced by a Q-version Kiana doll lying on the ground.
However, this doll could not be observed by the naked eye or any equipment, and it lay silently on the ground.
At this moment, near Cocolia's Orphanage, in a hidden Experimental Base.
"Bronya's chip location is out of range...? Could it be..."
A tall, beautiful woman in a Russian military uniform, with long golden curly hair, stood in front of a large screen, her purple eyes flickering constantly... Meanwhile, Kiana, having arrived at her destination, Xianzhou Luofu, had sparkling eyes and excitedly touched and looked at everything, acting exactly like a child who had never seen the world.
Mei and Bronya were the same.
However, due to the Demoiselle's restraint, Mei did not act overly exaggerated.
As for Bronya, since she couldn't express the appropriate emotions, she appeared poker-faced on the outside, but her inner world was already in chaos.
But because Kiana ran too fast, she didn't give them time to appreciate the sights, forcing them to quickly follow her.
Kiana also posted everything she saw along the way into the Group Chat.
[Gojo Kiana: Bush Sisters, which historic site or scenic area did you go to?]
[Wangshang Funeral Parlor Workhorse: It looks extremely similar to the cultural landscape of my Liyue, but why are there no pedestrians in the photos?]
[Kiana: (Xianzhou Luofu.jpg) This is Xianzhou Luofu. Right now, only Mei, Little Dot, and I are on it.]
