This question troubled Kiana☆.
Feeling Kiana☆'s slightly quickened breathing beside him, Fu Lin's mouth twitched, instantly knowing she must be thinking of something unhealthy.
-------------------------------------
Cecilia, 〈After that Honkai Beast incident, Siegfried finally pulled himself together, and Kiana☆ has also been more energetic than ever.〉
Siegfried, 〈...I'm truly a failure of a father.〉
[When Siegfried woke up from his coma, he seemed to have lost his sanity, pouncing on the food on the table like a starving wolf.
No matter how hard Kiana☆ pulled, she couldn't stop his urge to eat.
Eventually, after a whirlwind of eating, he unsurprisingly collapsed again.
Fu Lin, who had been watching from the side, exchanged glances with Kiana☆, both showing surprise and helplessness.
Then, Fu Lin suddenly suggested playing chess, and Kiana☆ gladly agreed, so the two set up a board on the coffee table in the living room and began to play.
However, every match ended with Fu Lin's victory. Although Kiana☆ was a little unwilling, there was nothing she could do.
Afterward, Kiana☆'s stomach growled loudly, and only then did she realize that a lot of time had passed.
So, Kiana☆ decided not to continue playing, insisted on calling it a draw, and then went to the kitchen to find something to eat.
However, after rummaging through the kitchen for a long time, she couldn't find anything edible, so she decided to cook for herself!
...
The fire spread rapidly, filling the entire room with smoke. Fu Lin carried the still unconscious Siegfried and stood in the snow for a long time.
Beside them was Kiana☆, looking disheveled after her mistake.
The house was gone, but fortunately, Fu Lin knew of an abandoned cabin, so Kiana☆ wouldn't have to sleep outdoors in the freezing snowfield.
And so, that cabin became Kiana☆'s home from then on.]
Sirin, 〈That was my brother's and my home!!!〉
Kiana☆ said with a serious expression, "Sirin, do you really care about that between us~? Your house is mine, and your brother is also mine, just accept it."
Sirin, 〈You... you robber!〉
Cecilia stroked the furious Sirin and helplessly advised, 〈Sigh, Kiana☆, tone it down a bit~〉
Bronya, 〈As expected, you can't let a Kaslana into the kitchen, or something always gets destroyed.〉
Kiana, 〈Bronya! That's stereotyping!〉
Bronya, 〈Is there a Kaslana in the stream who can actually cook?〉
Kiana, 〈...〉
Kallen, 〈...〉
[Miss Lily]Otto, 〈It's fine if you can't cook, Kallen, you still have me.〉
Seeing Otto take the words she wanted to say, Yae Sakura's face showed a trace of anxiety as she echoed, 〈I can too, Kallen.〉
Durandal, 〈I'm sorry, I can't either, but I'll work hard to learn!〉
Rita, 〈No need, just leave all the cooking to me, Lady Durandal!〉
Siegfried, 〈...Does toast pizza count?〉
Kevin, 〈I can cook some things, but it's too much trouble, instant noodles are better.〉
[Sit-ups King]Welt, 〈Don't you dare bring up your lousy instant noodles again!!!〉
Finally being asked this question, Kiana☆ straightened her back excitedly and said loudly and confidently, "Hmph! I can cook!"
Einstein, 〈That's definitely a genetic mutation.〉
[Magical Girl]Theresa (hands on hips), 〈Then I have to mention the magic Grandpa taught me. Just prepare the ingredients and recipe on the counter, take a nap, and the food will be ready when you wake up.〉
Himeko, 〈It's hard to break the dean's innocence...〉
Himeko couldn't bear to, but someone else could!
Fu Lin opened her mouth mischievously, "Hehe, Theresa, your nap-cooking magic doesn't work anymore~"
[Magical Girl]Theresa's eyes flashed with panic, 〈Impossible! Grandpa's magic can't fail! Fu Lin, you meanie!〉
[Miss Lily]Otto, 〈Don't worry, my dear granddaughter, as long as Grandpa is alive, nap-cooking magic will never fail.〉
Fu Lin tilted her mouth into a mocking smile and said, "When I play your death video later, won't you freak out?"
However, Otto looked unusually calm and replied lightly, 〈That's fine, actually. I'd love to personally witness the conclusion of the wish I've been pursuing for 500 years.〉
Hearing this, Fu Lin's eyes turned and she immediately had an idea, deliberately teasing, "Oh? So you really want to see your own death, huh? Well, since you want to see it so badly, I just won't show it to you. Hehe, I'll go against you and deny your wish, bleh bleh bleh..."
Kallen, 〈Mr. Fu Lin, please make sure to play Otto's ending, I'm begging you!〉
Li Sushang, 〈Senior Fu Lin, I also want to see if the Rasputin guy's final plan worked.〉
[Time accelerated! The video fast-forwarded like someone pressed a speed-up button until it reached a day one year later.
During that year, Kiana☆ sometimes went on missions with her dad, sometimes stayed home with Fu Lin reading, drawing, playing chess, or burning kitchens.
Among them, Kiana☆ lost more than she won in chess all year, often regretting moves, but every time Fu Lin refused takebacks, she puffed up angrily like a pufferfish, full of grievance and frustration.]
Fu Shi, 〈Lol~ Just practice more, if you can't handle losing then don't play.〉
[Shenzhou Tablet]Fu Hua, 〈Fu Shi, when playing chess with me you're even worse than Kiana☆, seemingly using Herrscher authority to secretly alter my consciousness.〉
Fu Shi froze, then turned bright red, exclaiming, 〈Huh? Ah? You knew, old antique?!〉
[Shenzhou Tablet]Fu Hua's lips curved slightly, 〈Just a faint feeling, I originally thought it was an illusion, but turns out you really...〉
Fu Shi realized it and her face darkened as she roared, 〈So you were guessing earlier? Old antique, you tricked me!〉
Li Sushang, 〈As expected of Grandmaster, no wonder I kept losing to Fu Shi, so that's why.〉
Cheng Lixue, 〈I knew it, there's no way I'm that bad, not winning a single match.〉
Fu Shi spammed, 〈I didn't, I'm innocent, you're lying!〉
In the livestream, seeing Fu Shi appear, Kiana☆ looked at Fu Lin beside her, "Fu Lin, did you let Fu Shi out of the ban?"
Fu Lin nodded, explaining, "I heard you can't have a stream without Fu Shi, or half the fun is gone. I also let Dr. Tesla out too."
But some people's focus was still on the kitchen.
Mei marveled, 〈How many kitchens have you burned? That entire area is black.〉
Bronya, 〈Blind guess, π〉
Tesla, 〈Hey, chicken nest head, look! Someone who can't cook is teaching a Kaslana to cook, hilarious, ahahahaha...〉
Einstein, 〈...Goodbye.〉
Tesla, 〈???〉
[Tesla was simultaneously muted by two hosts and given a harsh "tui" sound...]
[Sit-ups King]Welt, 〈....〉
Mei☆, 〈But I have to admit, Kiana☆ did learn some simple dishes. Maybe Fu Lin helped, but most of the credit goes to class monitor.〉
Kiana, 〈Huh? Class monitor, I want to learn cooking too!〉
Kallen, 〈Me too.〉
Siegfried, 〈Count me in, Celestial Immortal.〉
Faced with three eager students, Fu Hua felt a suffocating sense as if being wrapped by a python.
Elysia, 〈Aha, Fu Hua's being entangled by Kevin's descendants~?〉
