People around her more or less understand Kiana's extremely insensitive neural circuits when it comes to certain things.
"Seele" in a certain world line once mercilessly criticized the insect's ability to understand, which had reached a quantum level that was difficult for ordinary people to understand; "Seele's" good sister Bronya, in another future choice branch, expressed her undisguised contempt for the insect's slowness and clarity.
Although there is another option in that choice branch that is more normal and more in line with reality, the fact that another person's name appears in that choice branch is itself quite outrageous when the Herrscher of Recognition clearly said, "It's too weird to ask me to guide them," and even gave straightforward hints such as "I'll give up," and "You'll know soon, remember not to be too shy."
——Of course, if we think about it from another perspective, maybe Kiana at that time was not insensitive, but simply wanted to expand her harem.
This outrageous possibility will be omitted for the moment. In short, this insect's accomplishments in "reading the air" are so great that even Ms. Fu Hua, who is also a blockhead, cannot even compare to her.
However... perhaps because they were both made of wood, even though Fu Hua had tried her best to suppress her emotions to be as calm as usual, Kiana was still keenly aware of the turbulent waves underneath the seemingly calm state.
Kiana looked back at the young swordsman who was quietly waiting for breakfast, pondered for a moment, and finally suppressed the urge to continue asking questions.
It was impossible for Fu Hua to truly know this young swordsman from an interstellar civilization. In other words, no matter what those "insignificant past events" she mentioned were, they had little to do with the young swordsman who visited this cafe this morning. It would be meaningless to ask him about them in person.
On the other side, behind the bar in the hall, the store manager bit the tip of his gel pen and pressed his temple with a headache.
Compared to yesterday's series of unexpected encounters, this morning's business was relatively smooth.
After all, from his perspective, it had been some time since Delta borrowed Hyperion to hunt down the sisters who had driven away with her ship.
During the time when he was still traveling in the Quantum Sea as Captain Hyperion, he had witnessed countless times the huge destructive power of these two naughty kids, which could almost be regarded as causal weapons.
——Any vehicle they get on will be driven away. No matter what they encounter on the way, no matter whether that thing is in a dormant state or is completely broken, it will be reactivated in all kinds of strange ways. All kinds of low-probability events with only a one in a thousand or even one in ten thousand chance of occurrence will become inevitable the moment they hit the sisters. These things may not all be bad. In the process of causing trouble, they have even unconsciously become leaders of many world bubbles and saved countless world bubbles that were on the verge of extinction.
But once these things become bad, their severity will undoubtedly be catastrophic.
Compared with all the chaos he had encountered before, the fact that Delta managed to catch the two naughty kids in just a few days was beyond his expectations.
Perhaps, in this vast quantum ocean, only Delta, whom they call "Sister Delta", can control this pair of sisters who are like weapons of causality at a relatively minimal cost.
After the Arlene sisters were dragged away by Delta, the only trouble left for the store manager was the woman that Mistlin had dragged back.
The store manager slammed the account book in his hand on the bar counter and turned his gaze to Mistrylin, who looked disheveled but smiling happily. He felt a little uneasy inexplicably.
Could it be that this guy has awakened some strange habit?
Muttering to himself, the store manager glanced at the woman who was dragged back to the store by Mistellin like a sack by her ankle. Her long black hair was spread all over the floor like a mop. "Who did you bring back?"
"Oh, you didn't notice their presence?" Mistrylin exclaimed, with a hint of obvious surprise in her eyes. "I thought that with the manager's ability, he should have noticed these little mice hiding near you a long time ago."
"..." The store manager tilted his head, thought seriously for a while, then clapped his hands and suddenly realized, "Oh...you mean the pile of weeds that can't be cleared away? It turns out that the body of that thing is a person?"
"..." Looking at the surprised expression of the store manager, the corners of Mistierine's mouth couldn't help but twitch slightly, and the smile on her face fell.
She couldn't help but feel a little melancholy - although she didn't mention it, but for Mistylin, who had suffered a great loss at the hands of this guy, she was more or less proud of being able to forcibly capture a dangerous person like Vita.
But looking at the indifferent expression of the store manager, Mistierine understood that no matter whether it was "Su" or Vita who was now forcibly captured by her, in the eyes of the other party, they were probably not even opponents.
The boss they had fought so hard to defeat was, to the store manager, just a small soldier that could be easily killed... Although Kiana, the Herrscher of the End in their world, could probably do the same, to Mistellin, who had wanted to bring Vita to the store manager to take credit, the huge psychological gap brought about by the difference in strength still made her feel like she was punching cotton.
Yan Qing, who was sitting at the table, glanced at the woman being dragged on the ground and suddenly frowned.
What about weeds that just won’t go away?
This strange way of describing made the young swordsman, a member of the Cloud Cavalry Guard, almost instantly think of a monster that they had been "hunting" for a long time.
The moment he thought of that monster, Yan Qing stood up without hesitation driven by a sense of responsibility.
At the same time, the door of the cafe was slowly opened from the outside.
"I'm sorry to interrupt your conversation, but are you guys discussing the news regarding the Absurd Creature of Plenty?"
Yan Qing walked towards Mistylin and the store manager, gently placed his intact arm on his chest, and said politely:
"Ah, I haven't introduced myself yet. My name is Yan Qing. I am a registered member of the Cloud Cavalry and the general's bodyguard. If this woman under your control has any relationship with the evil creature of abundance, could you please hand her over to me?"
"Yanqing...Yanqing...?"
At this moment, a voice that sounded a little dazed suddenly sounded from outside the door.
The extremely familiar voice stunned Kiana, who was waiting in the hall for the next customer, and Mei Raiden, who was preparing food in the kitchen with Rita.
Mei Raiden quickly lifted the door curtain of the back kitchen with her mouth slightly opened, while Kiana looked outside the door dully. Even the Fu Hua in her body fell into a lifeless silence. If she showed up at this moment, most of the others would probably see a dumbfounded expression.
Mistierine was slightly stunned, then the corners of her mouth curled up wildly, and she felt that her whole body was suddenly high, and the feeling of frustration not long ago disappeared like smoke.
Just for this moment! She wanted to see this moment! Just for the joy of this moment! That’s why she wanted to stay in this cafe! ! ! !
This cafe is the best!
In a corner where no one was paying attention, Vita's eyelids suddenly twitched.
——Under the gaze of everyone in the hall, a woman with an extremely mediocre figure carelessly pushed open the door of the cafe. She was wearing a bohemian black ancient costume, with her legs and left shoulder exposed without caring about the sight of others.
The moment she pushed open the door of the shop, there was still a look of curiosity on her face. However, when she heard the young swordsman's completely polite self-introduction, the carefree woman suddenly fell into a daze.
Like this woman, there was also Yan Qing who subconsciously turned his gaze towards the door when his name was called.
When Yan Qing saw the face in his eyes, his pupils shrank slightly.
Marshal? How did she appear in Luofu?
Did the Jianmu Rebellion on Luofu even alarm the Marshal?
But soon, Yan Qing felt an extremely strong sense of disharmony.
As a member of the Cloud Riders, Yan Qing certainly recognized the face of the Immortal Boat Marshal who was extremely famous throughout the galaxy, but...
...Does the Marshal have such a bohemian style?
Because of this feeling of confusion, Yan Qing was unable to reveal his identity to the other party at the first opportunity.
...and completely missed the last chance to avoid a beating.
The woman standing at the door of the store blinked her red eyes, and the dazed look in her eyes quickly disappeared.
The moment she came out of her daze, the woman's face immediately revealed an expression of rage, as if she had encountered some blood feud.
"Great! Great!! Great!!! You are not a horse! How dare you, a wicked disciple who betrays your master and ancestors, appear in front of my master?!"
“Uh…uh uh uh…ah…??”
Yan Qing was dumbfounded.
Then, a surge of anger at being insulted and slandered rose up.
What the hell…what is going on?! Disrespecting the teacher and destroying the ancestors!? ? Are you kidding me? How could I, Yan Qing, do such a treasonous thing? !
Even the Marshal cannot slander his fellow Cloud Riders like this! Where is justice? Where is fairness?
"you……"
"Come here, you!!!"
Yan Qing was not given any chance to defend himself. A terrifying murderous aura and intimidation suddenly burst out from the woman who appeared at the door of the store. A bone-chilling chill instantly enveloped Yan Qing's entire body. Strips of light rushed out from the void behind the woman and flew towards Yan Qing.
Faced with such an unreasonable attack, Yan Qing certainly would not sit there and wait to die. He hastily summoned his weapon and exerted force on his feet, trying to escape from the light bands emitted by the woman.
However, in the next second, dark cracks were suddenly carved on everything around.
"I will - turn everything around!!!"
Along with the woman's voice, the world began to bend and twist within those pitch-black cracks, and was twisted into a huge vortex.
Then, it shattered and scattered.
Like shattered glass.
The world falls apart, and the world reassembles.
In the abnormal phenomenon that occurred in less than a millisecond, time and space completely lost their meaning. Gray-white clouds surged in the wind, and an ancient giant sword that was hundreds of meters long unfolded like a scroll. Rough chains extended from the hollow sword guard in all directions, connecting to huge sword blades that were also hundreds of meters long.
The chains hanging in the air swayed in the wind in the gray-white clouds. Thousands of huge iron rings collided with each other, and the sound of metal clashing was rough and wild. In front of these huge swords, the size of a human being was no different from a small grain of sand.
A normal person would probably be overwhelmed by the majesty of these ancient giant swords, but Yan Qing almost drooled as he stood on the huge sword pier. His eyes widened with desire, as if a glutton had seen a delicious meal... He was an extremely sword-loving person, and whenever he came across swords he had never seen before, he would try to collect them one by one. In his eyes, these ancient giant swords surrounding him were like treasures that were within his reach.
Is this heaven?! Before Yan Qing could put his thoughts into words, a voice of anger and incomprehension suddenly rang in his ears:
"You...are you crazy?!"
The sharp sound of a whip exploded the air, and the several-meter-long chain blade lashed towards Yan Qing's back like a long whip. Yan Qing then realized that he was being attacked by the "Marshal". His body trembled slightly, and he turned around without hesitation to summon his sword to meet the attack.
Eh…my arm…?
The moment he summoned the sword, Yan Qing was suddenly stunned. The bandage on his arm had disappeared without him noticing. His wrist, which had originally been difficult to move, had unknowingly returned to its original state after the world had changed drastically.
While he was doubtful, the chain blade and the sword's edge intersected without any hindrance.
A huge force came from the junction of the weapons, which shook Yan Qing's entire body back.
"Oh, what an interesting sword technique. Although you look young, you are much better than my stupid disciple."
The unruly woman looked at Yan Qing who was beaten back with a somewhat surprised look, and the smile on her face was as healthy as a child's.
"You are not the marshal, who are you?" Yan Qing gritted his teeth and spoke in a low voice, "Why did you attack me?"
"Marshal? What's that? Have I ever been a marshal somewhere before? I don't seem to remember it." The woman scratched her hair, with a confused expression on her face, but she quickly put this confusion behind her. "Forget it, it's not important. I'm not an unreasonable person. It was just an accident that I attacked you. I recognized the wrong person."
"Did you recognize the wrong person?" Hearing the woman's frank words, Yan Qing couldn't help but show a look of surprise.
"Yeah, you look so much like that bastard who betrayed his teacher and ancestors. Even your name is exactly the same." The unruly woman shook her hands and said with some melancholy, "If it was really that bastard, then what happened just now would not be so easy to deal with."
"..."
Did she stop?
Yan Qing pursed his lips, a hint of unwillingness flashing in his eyes.
There is no doubt that this woman is very strong. With his current level, he cannot tell who is stronger between this woman and the star core hunter named "Blade". Therefore, she is very likely the strongest person he has ever met in his life except for the general.
The woman shook her head and sighed, and there was a sense of regret in her tone:
"Okay, now that I know you're not my evil disciple, I'll leave first. This coffee shop is really weird. With my... bah, perception ability, I can't even detect the presence of Kiana and Mei before entering the door. I don't want to see their faces at this time, so I'd better get back on the road as soon as possible."
"Please stay, Teacher!" Yan Qing subconsciously extended his hand to the woman.
As a result, this subconscious attempt to retain him was met with another thunderous whip sound.
Yan Qing's eyes narrowed and he raised his sword to block. He was confident that he had made full preparations this time and he would not be knocked back without any resistance like he had just been. However, the moment the weapons made contact, the force was totally irresistible and his face changed immediately.
"Well……"
He immediately realized that he was wrong, and very wrong.
Damn it, isn't this a chain blade? How can it deliver a blow heavier than a hammer? And my wrist is numb...Is the bone inside going to be broken again?
“Don’t call me teacher!” The woman’s shoulders trembled slightly, as if she had PTSD about the title, and her face was full of anger. “I wanted to let you go, but you still want to fight, right?!”
"I just……"
"Okay! You want to fight, right? Then I'll satisfy you!!"
"Great!" Yan Qing jumped up with joy on the spot.
The unruly woman's expression froze and her eyes widened.
"No - you really have a mental problem!!!"
——A few minutes later, in Hyperion Cafe.
The unruly woman had a stinky face and sat with her legs crossed high on the dining table. Her sitting posture was neither straight nor elegant.
Yanqing was lying on the ground, his index finger trembling as he pointed outside the door.
"You...you ordered the tofu pudding."
Kiana tremblingly carried the white porcelain bowl and walked to the side of the unruly woman, her eyes constantly glancing at her crossed legs on the table.
"That, that..."
"You really don't know me? You just drove me out of the old antique's body! And you forgot about me the next moment, right?" The woman interrupted Kiana impatiently, snatched the white porcelain bowl of sweet tofu pudding from her hand, and looked at the latter with her red eyes filled with scrutiny.
"..."
Class leader! Class leader, where are you? Don’t play dead at this time! Help! This person looks like someone who is not easy to deal with! How should I answer? Kiana was swiping the barrage of comments frantically in her heart.
"..."
In fact, Fu Hua also has some doubts about life.
This person who looks similar to me but has a completely different temperament and style is a Herrscher - this is not difficult to guess.
Not only was this matter not difficult to guess, Fu Hua could even tell at a glance that the current state of this "Herrser" was actually quite similar to her current state.
That is, although it can interfere with the real world through material means to a certain extent, it is still just a consciousness without a body.
The body that the unruly woman is currently using is just a replica created from pure energy.
