Chapter 346

"You're welcome! Big brother and big sister are really a match made in heaven, a talented man and a beautiful woman. I wish you eternal happiness, and may God also bless you and big sister forever."

"Ah, this..."

Where did this high-quality human loli come from? To have such emotional intelligence at such a young age, what will she be like when she grows up?

Speaking of which, it was only until now that Bai Ge noticed that this girl in front of him looked a bit too exquisite, with golden long hair and emerald-like eyes.

However, before Bai Ge could continue observing for a moment, a man suddenly walked over from not far away and called the girl's name.

"Hm? Dad is back, then I should go home too. You two should keep working hard."

"Er, okay, okay..."

Kiana nodded in embarrassment.

Work hard, work hard at what? She was an idiot, so she couldn't understand what this little girl was saying. Was she saying she should work hard at eating? Then okay, no problem.

"Also, although I think being a mistress is wrong."

"Pfft!"

"But I believe that you and big brother are true love, big sister, so please, big sister, wipe out all the bad women who are blocking the way, and then snatch big brother! If you two get together in the future, don't forget to count me in for the credit. Well then, bye-bye!"

"…………"x2

Bai Ge and Kiana didn't know what to say. They could only say that this child would be invincible in the future.

Afterward, the girl's father thanked the two, held the little girl's hand, and the two left along the street bathed in the sunset. The figures of the father and daughter were so harmonious and warm, full of the beauty called home.

Bai Ge didn't have much feeling.

But Kiana beside him was stunned.

"So this is what a father and daughter from someone else's family are like. It feels... really good."

(Siegfried, you bastard, get out here!)

Bai Ge roared the name of his father-in-law in his heart.

Kiana gripped her small hands tightly in envy.

Memories of her childhood appeared in her mind involuntarily, and then... she became even more envious!

However, the next second.

"!!!"

Kiana felt her hand wrapped in warmth. Turning her head, she found it was Bai Ge holding her hand.

The next second, the white-haired boy pulled her into his arms with pity and touched her head with his usual gentleness. Such a gentle action made Kiana want to rely on him involuntarily.

"Thank you, Bai Ge."

"It's okay, if it's Kiana, my shoulders and embrace can be lent to you at any time."

"Mm!"

Originally, the two had intended to go back, but now they sat back on the bench by the street.

This was Bai Ge's suggestion.

Because the street bathed in the sunset at this moment was beautiful, and beautiful scenery could always heal the scars of the soul. It was just right for Kiana's mood to get some relaxation.

Kiana's head rested on his lap, just like an obedient white kitten, enjoying Bai Ge's light scratching.

However, although the scenery in front of her was beautiful and the boy beside her was even more beautiful, recalling the appearance of the warm father and daughter she had just seen, Kiana only felt empty in her heart.

After all, she had been searching the world alone for the disappeared Siegfried since she was ten, and at the same time started dealing with Honkai beasts.

"Bai Ge, do you think stinky old man doesn't want me anymore? It's been so many years and he doesn't even know to come see me."

Kiana said dejectedly.

"Kiana, don't think too much. Although that guy Siegfried is unreliable, reckless, and impulsive, there is indeed a reason."

Bai Ge looked at this pitiful girl, and his hand movements became even gentler.

"…………"

After a long silence, Kiana turned over.

She looked up at the sky, half dyed red by the sunset and half dotted with stars, and slowly extended her arm, as if she were going to touch and pick those stars.

At the same time, feeling Bai Ge's aura beside her, an indescribable sense of peace made her subconsciously rely on him. Afterward, Kiana revealed her true heart and spoke leisurely.

"Bai Ge, do you know? I actually don't have memories from before I was eight. Stinky old man said at the time that it was because my head was severely injured in an accident."

"At that time, stinky old man seemed to hate me very much. He would never smile at me, and he wouldn't even tell me my name. Every time I had a birthday, he would get dead drunk."

Bai Ge's eyes narrowed, and his dissatisfaction and killing intent toward Siegfried increased by a billion points.

However, it wasn't that he couldn't understand. Siegfried at that time was immersed in the pain of his biological daughter's "death."

Facing Kiana, who was created by Otto, the culprit, and who looked exactly like his daughter, if he could still smile at this artificial human, that would be a miracle.

"But once, when I secretly took his Shamash to fight Honkai beasts and said I also wanted to protect others, stinky old man smiled at me for the first time, and then he told me... my name is Kiana Kaslana."

Kiana revealed a nostalgic expression.

Until now, she still hadn't recalled her memories from before she was eight. Although she was still very curious, she didn't care much anymore.

And when she knew her name was Kiana Kaslana and that she was from a knight family whose mission was to protect humanity from the hands of the Honkai, she truly stepped onto her own life path.

From then on, she learned knowledge related to the Honkai while learning how to fight against Honkai beasts.

This was also thanks to her body's Kaslana bloodline, otherwise, a little loli of only eight or nine years old wouldn't have been able to defeat even the weakest Honkai beast.

However, when Kiana was ten.

Her life ushered in a turning point again.

"When I was ten, one day I suddenly lost consciousness. When I woke up, I found myself in a fire, and I don't know how old man's left hand disappeared."

Suddenly Kiana paused. She took a deep breath and raised her hand to cover her face.

"No, that's not right. Actually, I know. That hand old man lost might have been my doing. Although I don't know exactly what happened, but Bai Ge, I have an intuition... it might just be my fault."

Bai Ge hugged Kiana with a heart full of pity.

He knew what that was about.

Kiana fell into a rampage when she was ten, the Herrscher of Void core awakened, causing her to fall into a state of mild Herrscher-ization, and Siegfried's King's power/arm was lost in that battle... although it had already been healed by him now.

And after that, Siegfried stayed away from Kiana.

Because anyone related to the Second Honkai Eruption would, to a greater or lesser extent, affect the Honkai energy in Kiana's body, carrying the risk of the Herrscher personality awakening.

"Bai Ge, you say, could it be because I'm actually a terrifying monster that stinky old man didn't want me? Will I do that kind of thing to you in the future? If the future me hurts you, hurts everyone..."

Kiana hugged her shoulders and curled up. Perhaps out of unconscious self-protection, she hadn't dared to think about it carefully in the past, but Siegfried's "abandonment" made her feel fear.

Worried that the future her would repeat the same mistakes.

Afraid that the future her would also hurt Bai Ge.

However, just when Kiana was terrified and uneasy.

Suddenly her cheeks were cupped by a pair of hands.

"Bai Ge, what are you doing sob sob sob――!"

"What am I doing? That's my line, okay? Kiana, why are you crying with a long face? And just by relying on a gluttonous grasshopper like you, you want to hurt me? You're still a hundred years too early!"

Bai Ge rubbed Kiana's cheeks forcefully, completely destroying the girl's melancholy expression just now, and then treated her face like a toy, pinching it into all kinds of strange expressions.

He truly felt that this Kiana was getting carried away.

Even if you, grasshopper, successfully master the Gem of Sentience and become the Herrscher of Void, so what?

Now in front of you is the five-core Feathered Herrscher! Do you know who Lord Bai Ge, who is almost invincible in the current version, is!

"And that guy Siegfried actually hasn't been too far from you. As far as I know, even when you were in Nagazora, he was always near you."

"What? Stinky old man, he..."

"Hehe, do you feel like you've been played? When you were searching the world for him, that guy was actually around you. Otherwise, do you think a mere ten-year-old girl could really run around the world alone? Without cover, you would have been gone long ago."

Bai Ge raised his hand and flicked Kiana's forehead.

The grasshopper, feeling the pain, covered her head in shock.

"Then why didn't stinky old man come find me? Wait, could it be that he's actually nearby right now?"

"What are you thinking? This place isn't far from St. Freya Academy, it's not a school for ordinary people like Chiba Academy. If Siegfried dares to lurk here where there are Valkyries everywhere, he would definitely be hunted down as a pervert."

Bai Ge said with disdain. The only male creature welcomed in St. Freya Academy now was him. In this garden of girls, only he existed as this one green leaf.

"Didn't I say I saw him in Anti-Entropy a while ago? Don't worry, that guy is alive and kicking and doing well with Mei's old man. That left arm was also healed by me, and it's not Kiana's fault at all, so stop letting your imagination run wild."

"．． I see. But even so, he could have come to see me, right? This stinky old man, making me look for him for so long, and he was actually near me the whole time, he's really too bad!"

"Exactly, exactly, he's really too bad! Next time we meet, I'll back you up, and we'll teach Siegfried a good lesson."

"Mm!"

Kiana nodded and regained her vitality. Bai Ge's words made her feel at ease. Immediately, her whole person leaned closer to him, and then she finally relaxed with peace of mind.

Bai Ge hugged her slender waist and rubbed against this Kiana's cheek. He knew that Kiana was actually quite lacking in love, which was why he doted on her extra much on weekdays.
