What else can he say? He is not busy, he just can't sit still and has to find something to do?
Why does it sound a bit mean...
"If, I mean if, we have to use words like 'sorry' between the two of us, it would be a bit too sad.
"I can guarantee that I will never find Mei and her affairs troublesome at any time."
Lu Mian, who seldom makes promises, suppressed all thoughts in his mind and made such a promise.
After hearing this, Mei Raiden couldn't help but feel a warm sensation in her heart. She raised her little face and smiled sweetly, but her reflection reflected the appearance of the two of them.
There is herself, and there is also the Herrscher Mei.
"Then let me ask you again, will we always be as close as we are now and will we never be apart?" they asked.
Lu Mian raised the corners of his mouth slightly in a determined arc, his voice was gentle and full of security:
"Well, I think Plasma Shadow Show has already answered that for me."
After he finished speaking, he blinked funnyy.
Seeing this, Raiden Mei's smile widened, "Is that so..."
Just like that, the perfect couple hugged each other and looked into each other's eyes.
The feelings are so tender and lingering that words cannot express it.
And just as they were immersed in this charming atmosphere and wanted to get closer to each other.
A fragrance came in through the crack in the door.
Smelling the unique meaty aroma of some unknown meat stew, Lu Mian was stunned, "What smells so good? Did Ji Zi secretly cook while you were away?"
He didn't know that soup was stewing in the kitchen at this time, and he didn't know who cooked the soup.
Such speculation is merely rational.
After all, in this teacher's dormitory, apart from Mei Raiden who can cook, the only other person who can take the initiative to walk into the kitchen is Himeko Murata.
Kiana has lived with Siegfried since she was a child, so she will never starve to death, but forget about cooking. It's fatal.
And maybe he will even do something magical like serve a Honkai beast like the "Ice Pig" to the table.
Bronya is even more impossible.
It is said that those who play games every day are good bad friends. Judging from the bad friends' judgment, this little duck head would not cook even if he had to eat the pile of canned food stored under the bed.
The reason is simple - laziness.
While Lu Mian was guessing, Mei Raiden suddenly remembered something and her face changed.
Then he got out of bed at an incredibly fast speed, walked quickly towards the door in his slippers.
"Oh no, my soup!" He kept muttering to himself as he walked, as if his eyebrows were in a hurry.
"Click——"
With the crisp and urgent sound of the door closing, the girl's figure disappeared from sight.
Seeing this, Lu Mian, who was left standing there, smacked his lips and held his head to admire the surrounding environment.
I wasn't worried at all.
If it's about fighting small monsters or subduing Herrscher, he can still help out;
But in this small space of the kitchen, we should still obey Raiden Mei, the Herrscher of Food.
Professional matters should be done by professionals.
All in all, St. Freya Academy is peaceful and tranquil tonight.
Chapter 19 Cecilia (Two in One)
morning.
Above Europe, the floating island of the Destiny headquarters.
The bright sunlight shone straight through the gap in the floor-to-ceiling windows covered by curtains, casting a ray of light.
Otto, who had spent the early morning processing a cart of documents left behind by the Fool, stretched himself and decided to reward himself.
So she casually dialed someone's number.
One second, two seconds, three seconds...
After a busy tone, the communication was successfully connected.
Looking at the familiar and friendly handsome face of the person on the other end of the line, Otto smiled happily from the bottom of his heart.
Her voice also unconsciously became gentle: "Mian, how have you been recently?"
"Lately, things are pretty good. How are you and Karin?" said Lu Mian, who was wearing a white coat and looked like he had just finished giving psychological counseling to a student.
His expression was indescribably relaxed and comfortable.
Hearing Lu Mian's concerned words, Otto lowered his eyes, with an inexplicable sense of relief on his face, "I have been dealing with too many messes left by the bishop;
"Kallen has taken on the responsibility of the 'Saint Maiden' once again. She should be transmitting ideas and giving lectures to the Valkyrie now?"
Hearing this, Lu Mian nodded and said, "It's always a good thing to have something important to do, but you also have to pay attention to the combination of work and rest.
"If you really feel tired, take a few days off and come visit me.
"Or you can call me through the communication and I will come to find you. I got the ability of space teleportation some time ago, and now I can go to the Destiny headquarters at any time."
Otto listened quietly to Lu Mian's meticulous and somewhat nagging concern. There was no impatience on his face. Instead, he looked attentively and even enjoyed it a bit.
"Yes, I will. You should also make sure to rest. I see that your schedule these days is quite full." He only responded at the end.
After hearing this, Lu Mian, who was not able to react for a moment, turned his eyes as gentle as black jade and subconsciously thought and recalled.
In addition to the daily devilish training and sitting in the health room, he also has to prepare to accompany Kiana to the exam in the next few days, and at the same time he has agreed to go out and play with the neglected Mei Raiden.
In addition, he was thinking about treating Bronya, with whom he was getting along very well, for her lack of emotional system and her legs that could only move with the help of an alloy exoskeleton.
After finishing these things, I also have to take Meia, Bella, Aurora, Agata, and Galina to the commercial street of St. Freya Academy for a good stroll.
Although they don't need someone to help them get familiar with modern life like Yaesakura, Yae Rin and Hiyamaru did, as the "Cat Man" of the family, he still has to be responsible, right?
Finally, shouldn’t we try to improve our relationship with our two roommates, Tesla and Ain?
Even if we don't do that, there's still Ms. Himeko Muryota who seems to be neglected just like Mei Raiden...
Looking at it this way, there are indeed a lot of things to do, and the itinerary is indeed quite full...
It's probably to the extent that you can capture elves in the world of "Date A Live".
After thinking about it carefully, Lu Mian found that Otto seemed to have "something in mind" and felt a little embarrassed, but his expression did not change even a little.
He still chuckled and shrugged, his words showing helplessness and self-mockery:
"Well - I can only say that this is the 'time management master' of St. Freya Academy."
In response, Otto smiled teasingly and raised his smooth chin slightly in a noncommittal manner.
But he didn't continue the topic.
She did not initiate this communication for the purpose of "accountability".
Besides, a girl who is so aggressive is not competitive at all.
This is not possible.
"By the way, when they were encircling and suppressing the woman named Cocolia and destroying Anti-Entropy, the bishop also captured all the children in the orphanage founded by Cocolia and brought them back to Heaven's Destiny.
"Mian, how do you want me to deal with them? Or, how do you think you will deal with them?" After a little thought, Otto changed the subject and talked about business.
After hearing this, Lu Mian's eyes narrowed, and the figure of Cocolia gradually appeared in front of him.
When this unlucky figure faded away, Bronya's petite figure reappeared, and then several childish girls gradually appeared beside her.
A pink-haired girl who looks lively and enthusiastic, a blue-haired girl who looks almost the same as the pink-haired girl but has a calmer temperament, and a short-haired tomboy who looks crazy and aloof.
They are Rosalia Arlene, Lilia Arlene and Xing Maer.
Like Bronya and Seele, who is currently free-swimming in the Quantum Ocean, they are all children from the Cocolia Orphanage.
Cocolia's death, perhaps, no, definitely had no impact on Bronya and Seele.
After several twists and turns, and with Lu Mian as a new guarantee, the former can probably cut Cocolia without any pressure;
As for the latter, after being persuaded by the former, he was almost able to accept Cocolia's death.
So Kokolia died and that was it.
At the same time, the situation with Rosalia, Lilia and Xing was somewhat different.
Due to the problem of time, they have not yet been affected by Cocolia's magical operation, so they probably still have deep feelings for this "Cocolia Mom".
It is very likely that they will remember Cocolia's death due to fate and "Otto" deeply.
In time, it may become a threat.
In this way, Lu Mian was silent and thoughtful, and it took him quite a while to sort out all the connections of the matter.
For a moment, he was caught in a dilemma, and he had lost the decisiveness he had in the past when fighting against the collapse.
Logically speaking, the most "efficient" option at the moment is to get rid of the three girls, Rosalia, Lilia and Xing, before they grow up.
In this way, many unnecessary troubles and hidden dangers can be avoided.
But he pondered for a moment, and finally said slowly: "If it's not too much trouble, just take good care of it first."
It is impossible for a person to always make the right choices in his life, and it is even more impossible to avoid all troubles and hidden dangers, right?
Otto could understand Lu Mian's thoughts. She chuckled and nodded slowly, "What's the trouble? A few little girls can't cause any trouble. The most important thing is that you think this choice is what you want."
The implication is that in addition to relief, there is more confidence, pride and a little bit of pride.
It's more like saying:
"Look, I've grown up and I have the ability to control everything in front of me and in the world. You don't have to make any choices against your will to accommodate me, and you don't have to cause unnecessary killings to pave the way. Just be yourself."
Lu Mian could naturally understand the deeper meaning behind Otto's words.
Somehow, he felt his nose getting a little sour, and his eyes were covered with a thin mist and became a little blurry. He had rarely sighed since he witnessed little Otto and little Karin growing to the height of his chest in the blink of an eye.
The feeling at this moment may be touching, gratified, proud or even proud...
However, it doesn't matter anymore.
He just raised the corners of his mouth without dodging or avoiding, and responded in a gentle and slightly hoarse voice:
"I've already reunited with you and Kallen, what else could possibly go wrong?"
Watch carefully, this somewhat handsome man used only one sentence to make the flawless bishop who had been in charge of destiny for five hundred years and had a bright life lose control of his expression and was deeply moved.
They stared at each other, their night pupils reflecting the green eyes across time and space, the stars twinkling in their eyes, and they were speechless for a moment.
Two or three minutes later, Otto, who was the first to adjust his condition, pursed his lips and mentioned one last thing worth mentioning:
"By the way, Mian, I have a 'child' here that I want you to meet. She was raised by Karen and I. She's pretty, too. You should like her."
"Is it the child named Messiah?" Lu Mian guessed based on the information given by Otto.
"She is not the Messiah. She is still imprisoned in the headquarters of the destiny in our previous world. No, she is a bishop," Otto explained, and suddenly smiled playfully. "The child I want to introduce to you is named: Cecilia."
When Lu Mian heard Otto's name, which sounded so familiar, he was stunned at first.
Cecilia?
Then he reacted instantly, "You just said Cecilia, right? Hiss - I'm funny."
Although it is definitely not the "Cecilia" of this world, so she cannot instantly bring her mother back to Yulande and Kiana.
But it seems possible to get to know Cecilia in the previous simulation world.
After all, who doesn’t like Cecilia?
Just as Lu Mian smiled brightly at the name "Cecilia", Otto smiled mischievously as if a prank had been successfully pulled, and added:
"Her name, by the way, is Cecilia Apokalis."
Cecilia Apokalis?
