In a certain whimsical room at Schicksal, a short girl climbed for a while before she could get onto her rather high bed.
"Damn those aliens, one day I'll smash their heads in."
Theresa shivered under the covers. After a long day of work, she had finally come home to rest, read some manga, and fell asleep when she got tired.
Then, she found herself still working in her dream. The most infuriating part was when a meteorite suddenly fell from the sky. First came the sound of the meteorite's impact, and before she could recover from the sonic boom, she was torn into cosmic dust by the pulling gravitational forces.
Theresa was so scared she thought Ryn was getting back at her for bullying him too much. After asking Himeko and the others, she found out they all had similar dreams, but Mei and Kika weren't really affected.
Now that Schicksal HQ announced it was the aliens' doing, Theresa had added the aliens to her must-kill list.
But from what Theresa knew, didn't the aliens flee as soon as they heard there was a Herrscher on Earth? Why were they launching another major attack now?

Early in the morning, Kiana's eyes snapped open, filled with confusion and shock.
But seeing Ryn still sound asleep beside her, Kiana smiled faintly, bent down, and gave him a kiss. Then she stretched and got out of bed.
After getting up, Kiana first checked the alarm clock to estimate how long she had been unconscious.
"Strange... Was I so tired last night that I just fell asleep? Ryn brought me back without waking me up. Looks like I was sleeping like a log..." Kiana scratched her head in confusion.
She also had a dream about the world ending, but in this dream, she was the one destroying it.
"Oh well, oh well. Ryn is still here, I'm still here, and the world is still here. What a scary dream~ My stomach's a bit hungry..."
Kiana clapped her little hands, deciding not to dwell on such a bizarre dream. She then patted her little tummy and thought about going to the kitchen.
But as Kiana pictured the kitchen and intended to go there, a spatial portal opened right in front of her. Through the scene in the portal, Kiana recognized it at a glance as her most familiar kitchen...
"???"
Kiana's brain short-circuited. The sudden appearance of this portal left her dumbfounded.
As Kiana's attention subconsciously shifted to why the portal had appeared, her desire to go to the kitchen lessened, and the portal vanished before her eyes.
"So strange... Was I just sleepy and hallucinating... or..."
Kiana stretched out her hand, focused on the space in front of her, and began to visualize the layout and location of Mei's bedroom.
The next moment, a spatial portal leading to Mei's room quietly opened in front of Kiana's outstretched hand.
Through the portal, Kiana could clearly see Mei, who had just woken up and was getting dressed, preparing to make breakfast for everyone.
"How amazing... It's really Mei!"
*Spurt—*
Although they were both girls and Kiana had openly watched Mei change many times, the thrill of peeping still made Kiana's heart race, and a nosebleed started to flow involuntarily.
Mei, turning slightly to look in the mirror after getting dressed, noticed the suddenly opened spatial portal behind her. On the other side of the portal, Kiana was covering her nose, blood trickling through her fingers.
Kiana gave Mei a thumbs-up in praise.
"Mei, not bad at all!"
"Aaaahhhh—"
Mei screamed while covering her body with her hands, grabbing clothes and pillows from the bed and throwing them all at Kiana.
Kiana was hit square in the face by Mei's pillow, knocking her backward as her nosebleed sprayed three feet high.
"Whoa, close the portal, close the portal..."
Snapping back to reality, Kiana fumbled to close the portal. Unfortunately, she wasn't skilled enough yet. Although she eventually succeeded, she was hit several more times by the things Mei threw.
Seeing the portal disappear, Mei stopped throwing things, but her chest heaved up and down with anger at Kiana.
"How infuriating! What new toy has Kiana gotten her hands on now... How could she use it for peeping!"
Mei sat on the bed to calm down for a moment, then grabbed a slipper and a clothes hanger and headed towards Kiana's room.
A disobedient child needs a good lesson from her mother. If she didn't spank that idiot Kiana's butt, who knows when Kiana would try to peep on her next.
———————————————
"Oh no, oh no, Mei's definitely coming to get me..."
Kiana paced around her room anxiously. Then, as if an idea struck her, she jumped onto the bed and started pulling off Ryn's clothes.
Ryn was groggily helped up by Kiana, who took off his shirt.
"Mmm... Kiana, you're awake?"
"Mhm, mhm..."
Kiana hummed in response and continued to strip Ryn's clothes.
When she started pulling at his pants, Ryn instantly woke up.
"Kiana, what are you doing? It's too early for this! Besides... I have something to tell you."
"Is it important? If not, we can talk later."
Kiana pinned down Ryn's hands with one hand and yanked his pants off with the other.
Then Kiana quickly teased Ryn a little, pushed him down to lie flat on the bed, and then took a step back and jumped off the bed herself.
Ryn closed his eyes, waited for a moment, but Kiana didn't make her next move. When he opened his eyes to see what Kiana was up to, he saw her quickly putting on her socks and shoes, and slinging a large backpack over her shoulder, looking like she was about to run away from home.
"Wait, is something wrong here?" Ryn looked at Kiana, bewildered. "You can't just stop halfway! Kiana, you've already gotten me interested, don't just put your clothes on and leave!"
"Hehe, sorry, I've got things to do, gotta go." Kiana grinned thoughtlessly, then waved at Ryn as a portal to an unknown destination opened behind her.
"I called Mei to keep you company~ You two have fun!"
With that, Kiana jumped into the portal, which closed instantly after she entered, not giving Ryn a chance to understand the situation.
Less than half a second after Kiana left, with a bang, Mei burst into the room, fuming, with a slipper in her left hand and a hanger in her right.
Then, she froze on the spot when she saw the naked Ryn on the bed.
"Where's Kiana?"
"I don't know..."
Ryn silently pulled the blanket up a bit to cover himself.
Mei took a deep breath, then took out her phone and sent a message to Fu Hua, asking her to request a day off for her. At the same time, Mei quickly locked the door from the inside.
"A little kitty like you who aids and abets the wicked deserves to be punished severely!"
