After handing the tissue on the table to Yuno, Lin Yu said to Yuno lightly.
"You may have developed this apologetic personality because you were bullied in school in the past, but now, as a Valkyrie of Saint Freya Academy, you should be a little more confident - no one here dares to bully you, so rest assured."
"Yes......"
After starting to wipe the table clean with a tissue, Yuno looked at Lin Yu with an inexplicable look of anticipation in her eyes.
"Well, although what Bishop Otto said is correct, the topic is too vague."
"As warriors of destiny, we should indeed fight against Honkai and help others, but there is a problem with Bishop Otto's actions."
Hearing this, Yuno immediately asked unconsciously.
"What's the problem? Didn't the bishop say it very well?"
"His words of encouragement are fine, but ... the bishop is very busy and cannot always lead us forward."
Lin Yu, who already had an idea, started to talk nonsense mode and began to chat under Yuno's slightly admiring gaze.
"We can't always rely on the Bishop to guide us forward. As a mature warrior-"
"But... I just became a Valkyrie..."
"——Then you will mature sooner or later in the future."
Looking at Yuno who was still not very confident, Lin Yu continued to speak to Yuno.
"I know you are still insecure and confused, but you must cheer up now."
"Or to put it more directly - if you feel that you are a person who has committed a serious crime, you should cheer up."
"If you feel that you have committed a great sin, you should work hard to atone for it. Hiding away and feeling sorry for yourself will do no good to yourself or the world."
"As for what you should do now, it's actually very simple - first, you have to accept your identity as a Herrscher."
Having said that, Lin Yu picked up the teacup, took a sip of milk tea, and said in a slightly gentle tone.
"It's true that the Herrscher is the apostle of Honkai, but in the final analysis - all of us Fate Warriors are warriors who rely on Honkai to fight against the Stigmata."
"Whether power is good or evil, I am not a philosopher and I don't know. But I know very well that if the person who holds the power can help others, then this power is a good thing for that person."
"According to the rules of destiny, except for special circumstances, a Valkyrie can only be upgraded to Class B before she can go to the battlefield. And I believe that with your ability, it is not difficult to upgrade to Class B. Now, you should move in this direction."
Seeing the growing anticipation in Yuno's eyes, Lin Yu thought for a moment and decided to add fuel to the fire.
"Besides, you have another reason to keep working hard. Although I lied to you about some topics at that time, the other parts of what I said were indeed true."
"The disaster in Changkong City was indeed caused by that woman named Cocolia. To put it bluntly..."
"——Your mother died because of Cocolia's evil deeds."
"Mother......"
After uttering this word softly, Yuno felt the confusion and uneasiness in her heart gradually disappear.
"Senior, what should I do?"
Ha, that’s how it ended up.
Seeing a bit more hatred in Yuno's eyes, Lin Yu knew that he had seduced the girl to take this step.
Yuno's anxiety and despair basically stem from her insecurity about her own strength, her fear of losing control of her body, and her sadness for killing her mother.
So now, Lin Yu had to bring up some topics so that Yuno could formally understand her current situation.
Ultimately, the anxiety about strength and the fear of losing control of the body can be gradually eliminated by tempering one's own state of mind.
However, Lin Yu couldn't let Yuno forget the sadness of killing her mother in a short time.
Perhaps for others, Lin Yu can hope that they can slowly get out of their sadness.
But to put it bluntly, the emotions of a Herrscher are easily inflamed.
Therefore, rather than letting her torture herself because of this despair and sadness, heading towards the path of self-destruction and then having her body taken away again, Lin Yu's choice is...
"It's simple. If Cocolia can do evil in Changkong City, it means that she may also cause Honkai in other places. Publicly, she is the enemy of our destiny... No, it can even be said to be the enemy of the world. Privately, she is one of the culprits who killed your mother."
"It's not a good thing for you or the world to let this kind of person continue to get away with it. So..."
"I will find a way to kill her, and in the process, I need others to assist me."
——Lead Yuno to the 'evil path' of revenge, with 'killing Cocolia' as the starting point, so that she has the motivation to continue living and taking action.
There is no doubt that it is not a good thing to turn someone into a vengeful ghost.
But now Yuno, to put it bluntly, needs a reason to divert her attention.
[Haha, wonderful. Drinking poison to quench thirst is certainly not a good thing, but it is better than dying of thirst. ]
[You can feel that Yuno, who was originally wary of you because of guilt and because you had deceived her, now completely trusts you. ]
[Looking at the girl with shining eyes in front of you, you can't help but sigh - no matter which little girl she is, she is so easy to fool. ]
That's enough, you know it.
[Yes, you know very well that this dog system clearly knows that you are in a bad mood, but it still wants to nag you at this time. ]
[But you know one thing better - oftentimes, lies and rhetoric are indeed "necessities" for others.]
...It's really annoying, but it's an undeniable fact.
The moment he finished saying this to the system, Lin Yu saw a character introduction template pop up on the system.
[Name: Yuno (surname discarded)]
[Identity: You are a descendant of Tianming, a pseudo-hersword {Hersword of Poison}. ]
[Current Favorability: 35]
[Note: Her trust in you has surpassed everyone else's, but you know very well that this trust has nothing to do with love between men and women.]
Ha, it’s still 35…
[If you had spoken well a few days ago, your favorability would have soared to 70. ]
Oh, and what's the cost?
【Look at her name, guess what the price is? 】
...It is a simple and easy-to-understand statement.
"I understand. I completely understand."
At this moment, Yuno could feel that her head was beginning to ache slightly, but...
Get back here!
The moment she realized that the Herrscher personality was about to awaken again, Yuno, who already had a goal, instantly suppressed the Herrscher personality with all her strength.
"I will work hard to become stronger, Senior. But there is one thing I cannot promise you."
At this time, Yuno spoke to Lin Yu very forcefully with her own will in front of Lin Yu for the first time.
"because......"
"——I must end Cocolia's life with my own hands!"
...
Chapter 87. What is this called—Oh yes, a deer running around in panic!
St. Freya College. Commercial Street
On the other side of the commercial street, Kiana and the other two were choosing spare clothes in the store.
Originally, according to Kiana, she wanted to pick out a few more beautiful clothes.
Under normal circumstances, girls do love beauty.
But now Bronya is still doubting herself because of Lin Yu's questioning of her a few days ago.
Because of what she had done, Mei decided to work hard to improve herself.
As both of them had their own concerns, they really had no interest in Kiana's proposal.
Originally, Kiana planned to take the two of them to buy a few more clothes, and then meet up with Lin Yu and have a meal, so that everyone could relax a little.
As a result, she didn’t know what happened to Lin Yu and Yuno. Anyway, the atmosphere on their side... was quite awkward.
If this continues, Kiana feels that she can't expect them to relax today.
Alas, everyone has something on his mind.
But even if I have something on my mind, I still have to live my life - I can't say this now.
Mei's father's life or death is unknown. Although we don't know the specific situation of Bronya, she doesn't want to speak up and her personal situation is not very good.
When I think about it, knowing that my old man is still alive, I went on a shopping spree with the bank card given to me by Bishop Otto... I feel really heartless.
"that......"
Kiana was about to say something, but suddenly met Mei's eyes.
Then, looking at Kiana's hesitant expression, Mei chuckled and shook her head.
"Kiana, I know you are worried about me, but don't worry, I'm not that fragile."
"Also, I have obtained the information that Bishop Otto helped me investigate on the side of Tianming. Although I don't know how my father is doing now, the other branches of ME Club are still operating for the time being."
"Now Cocolia has withdrawn from Changkong City, and while ME Club's main club has problems, other branches are still able to operate normally... In fact, if you think about it for a moment, you can guess that this is probably the work of my father."
"Oh, that's right."
Listening to Mei's explanation, Kiana immediately took the opportunity to speak.
"Then to celebrate your father's complete safety, let's find a place to have a big meal today!"
"Um, Kiana...sister."
After hearing the name Cocolia, Bronya came back to her senses and spoke softly to Kiana.
"Bronya thinks it's better for you not to do this."
"Well, why?"
"Because, anyway... Yuno-sister's mother just passed away."
After a brief pause, Bronya continued in a low voice.
"If we celebrate at this time, Yuno-san won't be happy. And if we don't bring her along, it will seem like we are ostracizing her."
"...You are right."
Kiana, who had just realized this, sighed slightly and stopped talking about this topic.
Come to think of it, I was sad for a long time after my dad left without saying goodbye.
What's more, Yuno's mother died in front of her because of her.
If I were in your shoes, then...
I was still thinking about celebrating at this time. What was going on in my mind?
Just when Kiana felt guilty about this idea, a voice suddenly came into everyone's ears.
"Bronya, thank you for thinking so much about me."
"But this kind of thing doesn't really matter."
In the eyes of everyone, Yuno, who had just walked into this clothing store, spoke to everyone very calmly.
"Whether you're celebrating for Mei's father's safety or celebrating for everyone being alright, this is a perfectly normal thing."
"I think if my mother were still alive, she wouldn't want me to be sad every day, but would want me to be happy every day."
At this time, Yuno did not change her makeup.
But both the tone of her voice and the mental state she displayed at this moment were completely different from Yuno dozens of minutes ago.
If Yuno in front of everyone before was like a timid little animal, then Yuno now is like an elegant female leopard, giving others a feeling of confidence mixed with a bit of danger.
As Yuno's classmate, Kiana feels that if Yuno in the past had this kind of temperament, then those bad guys she mentioned would never dare to bully her.
This, Youno only talked with the senior for less than half an hour, and she has changed so much?
