After hanging up, Theresa shook her head and sighed. That idiot Kiana was so much trouble. Oh well, it was still early, she'd go back to sleep for a bit.
Theresa had barely closed her eyes for a few seconds when Kiana started shouting and shaking her awake.
"Grand-aunt, let me explain, it's not what you think! It was clearly that idiot Bronya who wet the bed herself, it had nothing to do with me!"
Theresa blinked her eyes, which were almost too tired to open, and looked at Kiana with an expression of utter resignation.
First a nightmare, then woken up by a phone call, and now she couldn't even go back to sleep?
"I just felt a fluctuation of Honkai energy..." Theresa rubbed her brow and gave Kiana an apologetic look. "You were so anxious that you used Honkai energy to come here... I'm sorry, Kiana, it seems I really misunderstood you this time."
"Hehe, as long as Grand-aunt knows the truth, that it was Bronya who wet the bed herself, it's fine~ I don't blame you." Kiana happily started to dress the drowsy Theresa, pulling a shirt over her head.
"Wait, wait..."
Theresa's head popped out of the shirt. She adjusted it, turned around, and then stuck her arms out.
"Kiana, don't... let me sleep a little longer..."
"Huh? So Grand-aunt is a big sleepyhead too~"
Kiana chuckled and patted Theresa's head, then skillfully pulled off the shirt she had just put on her.
"Kiana! Don't be so disrespectful!"
"Okay, okay, I'll be sure to respect the old and love the young! You get some rest then, Grand-aunt, I'm off~"
"Remember to come to class this morning."
"Huh? What did you say, Grand-aunt—my ears seem to have been injured during yesterday's mission, I can't hear—no, wait, I'm injured! I need three days of leave!"
"Kiana!"
Theresa shouted angrily. Kiana was so full of life and excitement, where did she look injured! It was clearly an excuse to skip class.
"Ehehe." Kiana giggled, then quickly reached out to pat Theresa's head, opened a spatial portal behind her, leaned back, and fell into it, disappearing from Theresa's sight.
"Hey, stop patting my head!" Theresa yelled in annoyance, but when she looked up, Kiana was already gone.
"...?!"
Theresa's eyes widened, all sleepiness gone. She quickly checked the room's window and door, confirming they were still closed as she had left them yesterday. Without even bothering to get properly dressed, she threw on a coat and ran out of the bedroom.
"Kiana didn't enter my room through conventional means, and she used Honkai energy... This is trouble. Did she master that power that suddenly appeared last time, or... has Sirin's power awakened?"
As Theresa rushed towards the armory, she sent a message to Himeko, telling her to prepare for the worst and, if necessary, to knock Kiana out if she lost control.
She should also let Ryn know about this. With Ryn's power, he could forcibly suppress the situation.
With this in mind, Theresa quickly sent a message to Ryn. With Cortana around, there was no fear of Ryn not receiving the message in time.
———————————————
In the midst of his passionate battle with Mei, Ryn paused as a holographic projection of Cortana suddenly popped up from his phone.
Taking advantage of Ryn's momentary distraction, Mei turned the tables, reclaiming dominance and pressing Ryn beneath her.
Slowly rotating her slender waist, a simple and direct movement, yet it brought an insatiable pleasure to both of them.
Ryn held Mei's firm and sexy waist and sat up. The momentarily distracted Mei was then pulled into Ryn's embrace.
"Mei, wait a moment... I have a message, Cortana sent me something. It might be urgent."
"Mmm... alright."
Mei's eyes were alluring, and she seemed reluctant to stop, but she knew what was important. She covered her chest with one hand and reached over to get Ryn's phone, respectfully not looking or glancing at the message on the screen.
Ryn read the message, then closed his eyes and scanned the entire St. Freya High School.
After confirming that the white-haired pest Kiana was currently using her powers to steal various delicious breakfast items from the cafeteria, his face darkened.
He then gave Cortana a flick on the head, sending the idiotic hologram flying.
Theresa: "Ryn, I have something very important to tell you. It might be hard to believe, but there's no time to explain now. Kiana has the power of the Second Herrscher, Sirin, inside her, and Sirin's consciousness might even exist within her."
Ryn: "Okay, got it. We'll talk about it later."
Theresa: "?"
Theresa: "What do you mean by that? This is something very important concerning Kiana!"
Ryn: "Don't worry, I already know about it. I just discussed it with my father-in-law Siegfried yesterday... Let's talk about it with Kiana tonight. There's no need to hide some things."
Theresa: "But Kiana's condition is very strange right now! She can already manipulate space and teleport herself!"
Ryn: "Mhm, it's just the Second Herrscher Core reforming. It's fine, Kiana is very healthy and safe right now... as long as she doesn't randomly run off to somewhere she shouldn't..."
Theresa: "???"
Ryn: "If you're really worried, Grand-aunt, just go catch Kiana in the cafeteria... Are you really worried that someone who only uses her powers to peep and steal food will destroy the world?"
Theresa: "???"
"Huh?" Theresa looked at the message from Ryn, her head tilted 90 degrees, her large eyes filled with shock and confusion.
"What do you mean 'just the Second Herrscher Core reforming'?! That's terrifying!"
Theresa exclaimed, about to continue her tirade against Ryn, but when she remembered Ryn saying Kiana was stealing food in the cafeteria, her blood pressure shot up again.
Is that how you're supposed to use this power?!
Utterly disappointed and furious, Theresa slung the Faux Oath of Judah over her back and stormed towards the cafeteria.
——————————————
Ryn put his phone aside and looked at the shy, sexy beauty in his arms.
"What happened? Was it urgent? You should go wash up. I'll go make you some noodles. Eat something to fill your stomach before you go on a mission."
Mei propped herself up on Ryn's chest, ready to get dressed and pack. But seeing Ryn lying lazily in bed, not at all tense, she was a bit confused.
"Cortana came to notify you directly, wasn't it something important?"
"It's somewhat important, but it's all under control, so there's no hurry... Let Kiana have her fun for now. After all, a child with a new toy is always full of curiosity. But once the excitement wears off, she'll start to ponder its meaning..."
"A new toy? Meaning? Is it that circle Kiana drew this morning for peeping?"
"..." Ryn's face darkened, and he nodded. "Although I hate to say it, that circle is actually a spatial portal, it's very powerful..."
"But Kiana used it to peep..."
"This circle can be used to transport people, objects, and even an entire space. And there are many other wonderful uses waiting to be discovered!"
"But Kiana used it to peep..."
Ryn covered his face with one hand, then pushed the smirking Mei back down onto the bed.
"Hmph, peeping, peeping, let me take a look too!"
"Oh, no... be gentle... I just had an orgasm, I can't take this kind of movement right now..."
"Weren't you quite capable just now? Prepare to die, little Mei!"
