Did the main characters enter the wrong game in their second playthrough?

Fu Hua, who arrived later, nodded slightly to Himeko.

"Yes, thank you for your hard work these past few days, Fu Hua."

Looking at Fu Hua carrying Wendy's luggage, Himeko nodded in response.

The three gradually entered the Hyperion. As the engines slowly started, the massive ship began to rise into the air, then turned around in mid-air, carrying a lost girl back to her former home...

"..."

At the top of the Oceania branch terminal, a slender figure holding a lance watched the ship gradually accelerate away, then turned and jumped down from that height.

"Bianca, you did a great job. Now you don't need to hold back anymore. Go and teach some of the ambitious people in [Anti-Entropy] a good lesson."

The flippant voice came through the communicator, while the girl named "Bianca" simply gripped her lance tightly, her golden hair flowing behind her, making her appear exceptionally radiant...

"Received, Bishop."

The girl's voice was exceptionally cold. At the same time... the Destiny Fleet surrounding the entire Oceania began to move. Their mission was complete, and the fleet no longer needed to be involved in the following matters.

……

“Your Excellency, isn’t this a bit too risky? After all, the gem inside Miss Wendy’s body is not stable. Even with Lady Fu Hua’s assistance, she is still an unstable bomb.”

At the headquarters of Destiny, Amber appropriately expressed her concerns to Otto.

Clearly, sending Wendy, who has already reached the level of a Herrscher, to the Far East Branch is not a prudent move.

If Wendy undergoes a "transformation" during the process, or after arriving at St. Freya Academy, the consequences will far exceed the losses suffered by the Oceania branch.

"amber……"

Otto did not answer Amber's question immediately, but turned his back, avoiding looking at that "familiar" face.

"Yes, Lord Bishop."

Upon hearing this, Amber lowered her head slightly and responded.

"You know, I never do anything I'm not sure of, and I never let things go far beyond my expectations..."

There was no trace of worry or caution in those emerald eyes; only unparalleled confidence.

“I believe that little traveler will make our Miss Wendy better, or even… restore her ability to walk.”

Turning away from the window, Otto sat down in his seat, letting the sunlight stream in. The warm sunlight filtered through the window frame, creating a Tyndall effect that blurred the entire office and made the man behind the desk even more indistinct.

But... it was precisely because of this ambiguity that Amber felt the bishop in front of her became even more real.

The bishop before me seems to have undergone some changes.

That change was something she had never experienced or perceived before...

"Go on with your business. Oh, and remember not to embarrass our [allies] too much."

"Yes! Lord Bishop!"

After the white figure turned and left, the curtains behind the office automatically closed, once again blocking the sunlight from entering.

The figure in the shadows remained calm and composed, staring intently at the virtual projection before him, a faint smile slowly spreading across his lips.

"This is indeed a bold attempt, my friend, but... if the experiment succeeds, we will reach that destination much faster!"

Looking at the projection in front of him, Otto slowly spoke, as if he were communicating with it.

"Impatient? No... I'm not in a hurry. I already know my fate, and I'm willing to pay any price for that beautiful ending. I'm not a greedy person, and I won't ask for any more of the 'beauty'."

"But... our little traveler is still too weak, and a soon-to-be-formed [Herrscher] will be the first [nutrient] for her to become stronger!"

"As for her stage... Changkong City might be a good choice, wouldn't you say?"

"I assure you, my friend, the plan is proceeding as scheduled. Although things are not going according to plan, humanity will weather this collapse in a more secure and safer way, and what follows..."

At this point, Otto slightly turned his head to look at another projection on the side.

The projection displayed Kiana Kaslana in her [Herrscher of the End] form, or as he called her... "K423".

"It all depends on when our savior from another world will return those two powers..."

Chapter 82 Ying: Kiana, the plot has fallen apart again!

Meanwhile, the "three little ones" who were resting in St. Freya's dormitory also received the latest news from Himeko.

A new "classmate" is about to return to St. Freya Academy, and this new "classmate" will be moving into their dormitory.

Upon learning this news, Mei immediately got up and cleaned the fourth room in the dormitory. After asking Himeko for the name and arrival time of the "new classmate," she quickly began to prepare for the upcoming "welcome party."

When Ying heard the name of the "new classmate," she froze on the spot, her golden eyes widening as if she had heard an unbelievable name!

"Hmm... I wonder what Wendy likes to eat. Maybe I should ask Major Himeko to help me find out..."

Mei hesitated for a moment, then gently tapped her cheek with her index finger. She turned to ask Ying for advice, only to find Ying looking utterly bewildered. So, with a hint of confusion, she tilted her head slightly and asked, "..."

"Ying? What's wrong?"

"Um...it's nothing, I just feel a little dizzy, I'll go back and get some sleep!"

Ying said to Mei in a slightly flustered manner, and then, without even having time to put on her slippers, she ran barefoot back to her room.

Mei and Bronya were left staring at each other in the living room.

After returning to her bedroom, Ying promptly tagged her "cheat code" in the group chat.

Ying: "@Kiana"

Ying: "Kiana! Something terrible has happened! Wendy is coming to St. Freya Academy!"

Kiana: "?"

Kiana: "That's fine, right? Next, you'll head to Oceania to pick up Wendy..."

Ying: "No, what I mean is... Wendy has been successfully taken to the Hyperion by Himeko, and we'll be arriving at St. Freya soon!"

Kiana: “!!!”

Kiana, who had been lying in her second-floor "storage room" bedroom, suddenly sat up, her azure eyes filled with panic.

What happened? Wendy... why didn't Wendy become the Fourth Herrscher like in the original storyline? Or is it that... she plans to activate her Herrscher powers after returning to St. Freya Academy?

After she left the Honkai world, did the plot change so much?

But... Oh no, St. Freya is in danger!

After a quick thought, Kiana then said to Ying with some anxiety.

Kiana: "Go find the class monitor and Auntie!"

Ying: "Huh?"

Ying scratched her head, puzzled. Looking for the class monitor… what good would it do in this situation? Besides, the class monitor is on the Hyperion right now! As for her period… is Kiana's period the headmistress?

So, Ying replied to Kiana.

Ying: "Um, the class monitor is on the Hyperion right now. She's in charge of bringing Wendy back. Wendy's return was also arranged by the headmaster. She's waiting on the tarmac now."

Upon hearing this, Kiana fell silent for a moment.

To be precise, Kiana's little mind was completely in a mess at that moment!

What is this all about?

Why has the class monitor already gone to Oceania?

No... if that's the case, then Wendy hasn't become the Fourth Herrscher yet?

But this doesn't add up...

However, since the class monitor is here, Wendy shouldn't do anything extreme, right?

Ying: "So, with the class monitor around, Wendy won't get into trouble?"

Ying's doubts resurfaced in the chat group.

Kiana: "Well... all I can say is that the class president can temporarily suppress Wendy's Herrscher personality, but that's all it is, just suppression."

Ying: "Wow... the class monitor is so amazing!"

Ying was quite surprised, little did she know that Kiana's words were rather conservative.

In reality, for Wendy, Fu Hua's "suppression" was merely using the power of the Feather Dust to help Wendy maintain her true self. If Wendy were truly unable to hold onto her true self and were consumed by the Herrscher personality...

Then Fu Hua will probably have to use physical means to "suppress" Wendy.

Given Wendy's extremely poor performance in the past, she even suspected that the class monitor only needed to use "Inch Punch. Heaven Opening" on Wendy, and the Fourth Herrscher would simply "disappear".

But the real issue now shouldn't be whether the class monitor can kill Wendy with one punch, but rather...

The plot has gradually developed to the point where Kiana can no longer understand it.

So... if she had passed the Valkyrie exam smoothly back then, none of what happened afterward would have occurred?

Okay, actually, it's because "she" has become Ying...

Ying wasn't dwelling on why Fu Hua was able to suppress a Herrscher; all she wanted to know was what to do next.

Ying: "So... what should I do now?"

Kiana: "..."

Kiana said she didn't know what to do either.

But it's impossible for Wendy to turn around and blow up St. Freya Academy.

Even ignoring the class monitor, Theresa's Judah alone would probably render Wendy incapable of fighting.

So I thought about it for a moment...

Kiana: "Hmm... So, you'll try to get along better with Wendy next?"

Hoshino: "Hmm? There's another problem with Ying's storyline?"

Ying: "Trying to build a good relationship!?"

Ying: "@Star, yeah (Paimon sighs)"

Xing: "Well, I'm fine here, everything's normal."

Kiana: "..."
