Chapter 850 - They're All Stress Monsters

This breakfast felt more like lunch. It was a good thing this house actually had a dining table that could seat so many people.

A large group of girls sat on both sides of a long table, which was filled with a sumptuous... breakfast.

Shu saw the pot that Kiana had snatched from him. It was now sitting squarely in the middle of the table. And on the table, there were actually two other large bowls of soup. It didn't look like Mei's specialty, miso soup, but some kind of thick soup.

Hmm... didn't Kiana say that Mei hadn't made soup?

No, Kiana hadn't even said that so many people would be coming here for a meal today.

Looking at the appearance of this breakfast, Shu felt that it wouldn't be strange if everyone went on a spring outing right after finishing breakfast. This harmonious atmosphere, plus so many little girls...

There were so many people here. The adults were only Natasha, Siegfried, Cecilia, and Kallen.

And the minors?

At a glance, from Li Sushang, who was just in elementary school, to Mei, who was only of middle school age, besides the adults, the oldest was himself, the "uncle." The rest were all little brats who still had to do their summer homework.

As soon as he thought about how the future of this world rested on these people, and that the current world was also on their shoulders, Shu suddenly felt that the future of human civilization was full of vitality and all things were competing.

Fortunately, when they were on the train, the mealtime was also like this. Shu was already familiar with the process of the whole meal.

It was nothing more than...

"Ah! Lilia is so despicable! She snatched my fish fillet while I wasn't paying attention!"

"Hmm? Where's my fried chicken? Where's my fried chicken? Hey! Have you seen my fried chicken?"

"Mmm? Wuwuwuwu!"

"Damn it! It must be you!"

"Mei~ help me get a bowl of soup~ that miso soup~ look, it's almost all gone!"

"Seele, this is Homu brand miso soup. It's very delicious."

"Hmm... it does have a unique flavor. Lady Bianka and Lady Alvitr can try it too."

Seeing that the pot of soup was so popular among these people, Shu was already sweating profusely just thinking about the "double soy sauce and MSG" he had added to the soup.

Kiana could pop up and steal soup as soon as he had left. It was hard to believe that Kiana hadn't seen anything. If these people knew that what they were drinking now was made that way, would they vomit it out?

Probably not. Shu still believed in them on this point, but he was still guilty.

And at this time, there was another "sword-drawing and bewildered" person at the dining table.

Ana was holding a bowl of rice and a pair of chopsticks, sitting like a sculpture between Sussanna and Alvitr.

She had been in this position for a while now, her mind still in a state of chaos from joining this "big family."

Who am I? Where am I? Why am I at this dining table, eating a breakfast that is even more sumptuous than lunch?

Is this really breakfast?

No, the question now is—is that person who looks like he's easy to bully really the legendary Shu?

Looking at Shu, who was almost about to shrink himself up, Ana felt like something in her heart had shattered, and the shattered pieces on the ground had formed a picture that she had never dared to imagine before.

He didn't even show that aloof, "keep others out" look. Instead, he clearly showed his fear of communication to everyone.

There was no cover-up, so real that it made people frown.

Seemingly realizing that it wasn't good for her to just freeze like this, Ana, while in a daze, reached out and took a bite of food, and shoveled it into her mouth with her rice.

"Does Miss Ana often eat Chinese food?" Rita's voice came from the side, interrupting Ana's thoughts.

Ana was stunned for a moment, then shook her head. "I guess so... I only arrived in Shenzhou a few months ago..."

A few months ago, which meant that Ana had only arrived in Shenzhou a short time before the Great Honkai.

Rita smiled at Ana. "Unfortunately, today's breakfast is more of a Far East flavor. It seems that we will have to prepare Chinese food for Miss Ana in the future... how about General Tso's chicken?"

"...Is that really Chinese food?"

"At least the Chinese food that Miss Ana often eats is like that, right?" Rita reached out and helped Alvitr with a bite of food, then corrected her extremely awkward way of holding chopsticks again.

Alvitr had a bitter face and accepted Rita's correction sullenly.

She had never felt that her hands were so disobedient. The hands that could fold paper flowers that looked real could not control two short chopsticks at this moment.

Alvitr had also suspected that it was because she was not from Shenzhou, but when she looked up, she saw that there were only three or four people from Shenzhou at this table. Everyone else was from other places, but she was the only one who couldn't use chopsticks.

Rosalia and Lilia were at most a little unfamiliar. Fréllei even used chopsticks with a unique elegance, which made Alvitr's eyes full of envy and jealousy...

No, no, no, I can't be jealous, I absolutely can't be jealous!!

A chill ran up her spine, and Alvitr felt phantom pain all over her body. But just by looking at the people present, the phantom pain disappeared.

She was extremely safe now!

It could only be said that they were indeed people from Fire Moth. Even such a small matter was beyond her reach.

Thinking about it, the fact that she could enter Bianka's squad was still like a dream. To this day, Alvitr still didn't know what she had relied on to enter this squad.

But it was precisely because she didn't know anything that Alvitr was a little at ease.

Because Rita was teaching her. Alvitr didn't know what abilities she had, but did Rita, who had let her join the team, not know what abilities she had?

Rita must be teaching her in the direction that the squad needed. So all she needed to do was abandon her own thoughts and concentrate on learning.

Although there was pressure, it was not that great. After all, it was not yet time for her to stand on her own. With so many tall people at this table, when would it be her turn to hold up the sky?

Alvitr didn't even dare to imagine what the pressure would be like if she were to go to the front line now.

As for the pressure on the front line... whether it was Kiana and the other two, or Kallen, Himeko, and Natasha, they were all battle-hardened. Kallen's side were reliable adults, and Bronya and Kiana had also seen the world.

Even Mei, under the leadership of Kiana and Shu, was already "weather-beaten." She was not a member of the front-line battlefield, but more of a support.

So now, among the members on the front line, the one with the most pressure was still Fréllei.
