"Your AI talks too much"
Theresa rolled her eyes at Tian Shi's sudden interruption.
"I'm just speaking the truth"
Tian Shi pursed his lips, even if the flat screen didn't show it.
"Besides, with this configuration, we are still far from breaking into the Alliance"
"I was just saying"
Himeko scratched her head, but Ragna's expression gradually became strange.
Why did it sound like it had a hidden meaning?
"Um... do you know Schicksal's defensive capabilities"
To be honest, when Ragna was still with Schicksal, she only had a superficial understanding of its defenses.
For example, the Valkyrie defense deployment map, although it seems impressive, it's been three years since she left Schicksal.
Defense deployment and things like that are outdated information.
"Hmm... I only have a vague understanding"
Tian Shi muttered.
"I left something on the network when I returned to Schicksal headquarters. Can I tell Theresa"
Theresa and Otto haven't completely broken up yet.
"Given the defense capabilities and iteration speed of Schicksal Airport, it is practically impossible for one of these objects alone to penetrate the defense line... well, it would be difficult even to get close"
In the future invasion, Anti-Entropy only managed to successfully infiltrate the Hyperion by sending a large number of mechas as cover after hacking the defense system.
"And didn't you notice that this thing doesn't have a main weapon"
"Main weapon"
Himeko was surprised and looked at the configuration list again.
Did it really seem like there was no main weapon? Himeko looked at Theresa with a bewildered expression.
"Well... because Himeko, you are the main weapon"
Theresa turned her head with some guilt.
"And is it really appropriate for you to discuss how to raid Schicksal headquarters in front of me"
"Don't change the subject, Director"
Himeko remained unfazed.
"You want me, a useless person, to be the 'main cannon' of a warship"
"How about that? Don't you feel flattered" Theresa puffed out her chest to make her words more convincing.
However, the fact that Theresa didn't even correct Himeko's use of the term "old" reveals her guilty conscience.
"You probably just forgot, but you remember that I'm from Anti-Entropy, don't you"
Himeko's expression was subtle.
"Or are you making this arrangement precisely because I am an Anti-Entropy person"
"No! Not at all"
Theresa quickly waved her hand in denial.
"That's how it was when they gave it to me from headquarters, I can't do anything about it. They said it was custom-made"
"What measure" Himeko complained "
Do I have more meat than other A-rank Valkyries or something"
"I think you are more suitable to be the main weapon only in terms of destructive power"
"The main weapon..."
Ragna looked at Himeko's developed chest.
"In that sense, Himeko, you are indeed more suitable for the main weapon than the Director"
Ragna's resentful tone surprised Tian Shi. Ragna's tone was often tinged with resentment.
Theresa, following Ragna's gaze, instantly understood what was happening and immediately blushed.
"Anyway, you can find Anti-Entropy to modify it! I... I'm leaving"
Himeko looked speechlessly at her Captain as Theresa fled disorganized, humiliated, and embarrassed.
"Didn't you just calm down? Why did you suddenly become resentful again"
"Is there anything you two need"
Tian Shi looked at both of them with some perplexity.
"It's alright, Alliance Leader Sir"
Ragna sighed again.
"Uh... can I request a transfer"
"Transfer"
Tian Shi was surprised by Ragna's words.
"Ragna, what's wrong"
"Well... the job of professor bores me a little. Why do you look like the world is ending"
Ragna looked at the tablet screen with a surprised expression.
"Because I honestly didn't expect you to find the job boring"
This is Ragna, the social worker and philanthropist who is obsessed with public welfare! How could she find teaching a boring job?
"Well... it's a shame, but it's not impossible to transfer you"
Tian Shi was quite understanding, especially since Ragna herself was very reliable.
"But Ragna, have you already decided where you want to go"
"Hmm... can't I rejoin the team"
Ragna wanted to return.
She wants to regroup the troops... Bah!
For no other reason than to team up with her teammates to make things difficult for Himeko.
Although I managed to let it go at first, well... this is the kind of thing that makes you angrier the more you think about it.
Seeing Tian Shi emerge only intensified Ragna's resentment.
"No problem... but how about we finish this year's class first? I remember your class is the graduating one, right"
"Ah... that's right"
The adorable students in her own class eased Ragna's resentment.
"Speaking of that, can we sign someone for Anti-Entropy? Like that class monitor of yours"
Tian Shi leaned forward.
"Wendy..."
Ragna looked worried when talking about her class monitor.
"That girl is already an A-rank Valkyrie, she's been on headquarters' radar for a long time, and even her plans after graduation are already set; she's very enthusiastic"
"Then forget about it"
Tian Shi felt a little regretful about this.
After all, Theresa and Anti-Entropy only maintain a cooperative relationship.
It would be terrible if something like a robbery happened that made them separate.
"Speaking of that, could our Anti-Entropy recruit some Valkyries from St. Freya"
If we can't sign Wendy, a high-quality player, then it's not out of the question to try a different approach.
"You're overthinking it, as long as you're a B-rank Valkyrie, headquarters will have it registered"
Although Valkyries have become more docile, their primary combat standards remain unchanged.
B compatibility is always a hurdle.
"Those below B-grade are possible... but it is practically impossible for graduates to have those people, and it is not worth it"
Anti-Entropy does not lack low-to-mid level combat power; those Titan mechas are incredibly fierce in combat.
"That's true"
Ragna's words brought Tian Shi back to reality.
That's right. What Anti-Entropy has always lacked is elite combat power, that is, the middle and upper levels of the pyramid. If it were Schicksal, it would be like an A-level Valkyrie.
Below, a group of mechas of various models, led by the Titan, would suffice.
Above, although there is a slight shortage, Joyce and Reanna should not be underestimated.
"Sigh... then let's leave it at that"
Although Tian Shi is a warrior of pure love, he doesn't mind feeling pure love for other people's love, for example, the Schicksal Valkyries.
Ragna's speech immediately discouraged Tian Shi.
However, if we change our perspective, we have already recruited quite a few people from Schicksal.
Ragna's entire elite Valkyrie squad, according to current classification standards, would be considered A-level.
Even taking a step back, the entire Anti-Entropy was unearthed from Schicksal.
"So, am I an experienced blonde"
"However... well, following the principle of 'trying three times even if there is no chance,' why not try"
"Yes, ma'am"
A year passed in the blink of an eye.
Wendy's generation of Valkyries graduated from St. Freya, and Ragna was subsequently transferred.
Even though she was being transferred, Ragna and her team members still sent some things to Tian Shi from time to time.
Yes, for Tian Shi.
Himeko was not included at all.
Himeko, with a "handsome ghost" by her side, has become a class enemy of the entire Stormtrooper squad.
This caused Himeko to be quite depressed for a while.
With Tian Shi's help, Kiana's grades have improved slightly in the last six months, but the scope of her progress has made Tian Shi lose confidence.
Fu Hua is still the class supervisor, but after the initial enthusiasm fades, the nickname "Big Sister" gradually loses its presence; of course, Fu Hua is quite happy about this.
In comparison, the only one who hasn't changed is Theresa: she simply went from forty-one to forty-two years old.
As for St. Freya Academy, enrollment is still somewhat difficult, so, as an ally, Anti-Entropy selflessly provided two new students to St. Freya Academy.
Raiden Mei and Bronya Zaychik.
Tian Shi's two younger sisters.
"But then, why isn't Seele included? Haven't these three become the Anti-Entropy Trio"
"Because... Sister Seele is not feeling well"
"It was Mei who hung Seele... Black Seele on the ceiling again"
Bronya mercilessly exposed Mei's lie.
"W-when did that happen..." Mei was instantly embarrassed"
That... that was done by another me"
"You are the same person, right"
Tian Shi looked at Mei, her face flushed, speechless.
Being honest, the belt he created ignored the personality of the Thunder Queen, didn't it?
"These days, since you left, Brother, Mei has been using the belt whenever she has difficulty making a decision"
Bronya, expressionless, exposed Mei's secrets.
"Two months ago, we even brought back Uncle Ryoma, who had run away from home"
Running away from home?
Tian Shi was a little confused by these words, and then a distant memory appeared in his mind.
Could the so-called "running away from home" be the result of Ryoma's rebellion, who is obsessed with his daughter? Then he was punished by his own daughter. Is this what they mean by "a daughter should not stay at home once she grows up"?
It seems like the one who shouldn't stay is me?
"Mei"
"Yes"
Mei stood up instantly.
"My brother will probably scold me... after all, I hung Seele again"
"But at that moment, it was a last resort"
"Who... who let Black Seele say that I only have hen thoughts and that I'm a pervert"
"Does... does she have the right to say that about me? Isn't it clearly Black Seele who has her mind full of lewd thoughts? ...Or perhaps Seele"
Mei recreated the scene in her mind and couldn't help but feel a little wronged.
Mei put on the belt because she couldn't argue with Black Seele.
However... after all, Black Seele was hung, and that's undeniable.
Mei obediently lowered her head and awaited instructions.
"How did you tie Black Seele"
"Hanging vertically... cough, Brother, why are you asking that"
Mei was a little embarrassed.
Although the club is very good at Japanese bondage... that is not a skill I can show my brother! Although I had already said it once before.
"Just a little curiosity"
After all, the rope bondage techniques of the masters are definitely worth it, right?
"Okay... Are you curious"
Mei hesitated for a moment, but then seemed to make up her mind.
"Um, if you want to see, Brother, I can practice here"
"???" Tian Shi asked bewildered.
Bronya silently took a step back.
She didn't want to be a guinea pig... although being a guinea pig in front of her brother wouldn't be bad, would it?
"I've been trying to learn to do self-bondage and things like that for the last two months"
Mei blushed and lowered her head.
After discovering that Tian Shi was also interested in bondage, she began to study it more deeply.
"For example, if you are interested, Brother..."
"???"
Is it really appropriate to say such things in this type of situation?
"Great, I'm going to call the police"
Himeko, seeing the siblings reunite, took her phone without expression.
"Go to hell! Do you call this your younger sister? This looks more like a real fiancée than a fiancée! This girl seems so modest, how is it that she can say such provocative things right away? Rope bondage? And self-bondage? Is your sister really a proper sister? I would believe you if you said she was a child bride"
"What's the use of reversing entropy if calling the police is useful"
Tian Shi silenced Himeko with a single sentence.
Tian Shi, who had already been threatened this way several times before, had some experience with it.
"Arrogant and extravagant"
Himeko muttered indignantly.
"How could you lay a hand on a girl like that"
"Uh... Lady Himeko, I'm already 17 years old this year, an age when I can get married"
Mei suppressed her shyness and replied.
"..." Himeko was speechless.
She was already preparing to marry Tian Shi at 17 years old.
What was I doing at 17? Oh, while promising not to become a "leftover woman" like her predecessors, she underwent arduous training.
Tian Shi is still unaware of his good fortune... Ah... I suddenly really want to travel back in time and strangle myself.
Himeko is a little depressed.
Ragna just left and here are these two right after!
"Speaking of that, Mei, did you bring a belt this time"
Faced with Mei's direct advances, Tian Shi could only change the subject.
"No..."
Mei said a little ashamed.
"Because I used it very often, so... um, Aunt Edison confiscated it"
You call her "sister" to her face, but "Aunt" behind her back, right?
Tian Shi was speechless.
"I didn't bring it... but it's not a big deal, since your purpose for coming to St. Freya is to learn conventional combat techniques"
Tian Shi tried to steer the conversation in a positive direction.
"Yes, that's what Sister Reanna said"
Mei nodded, looking slightly disappointed.
"Was I really too radical"
"And there's also intelligence gathering and things like that"
Bronya added from the side.
If it weren't for Tian Shi's presence, Bronya would have already wanted Heavy Bunny to take Mei away.
"What a shame...! Fortunately, my brother is a gentleman"
"Speaking of that, can Bronya sleep with her brother tonight"
As soon as Bronya finished asking the question, an immense sense of oppression emanated from Himeko behind Tian Shi.
