Chapter 389 Chat
Chapter 389 Chat
Perhaps because of the strong affinity that snow itself possesses, during the conversation that was like a tea party, Karim unknowingly let go of her awe of the Snow Star King's identity.
"Come to think of it..." Xue took a sip of the fine black tea prepared by the church and looked at Karim.
"Karim, do you... have Overlord blood?"
I have to say, the more I look at Karim's purple eyes, the more familiar they become. They are really similar to the right pupil of my brother in my previous life.
"Yes... I do have the rare bloodline of the Overlord from my great-grandmother. Your Majesty, the Star King, how come..."
Karim was somewhat surprised that Xue could tell at a glance that she had the blood of the Overlord.
"After all, your eyes are very similar to those of my brother~"
"Brother?" Karim was stunned.
"That's right. You may not believe this, but in my previous life, Star King Alicia Pendragon and Overlord Klaus Ingwald were actually cousins."
"Eh? Eh!!!"
Karim was stunned at first, then she let out a scream.
The Star King and Overlord in history were actually cousins? ! ! !
"That's right. Back then, as the only sons of the Pendragon and Ingvard families, we had an incredibly close relationship, like siblings."
"In other words, I could probably be considered an ancestor of yours, Karim."
"Yes…"
Karim nodded blankly. She had gained another ancestor for some unknown reason.
"Haha, Karim, you and I had the exact same expression when we heard this~"
Looking at Karim's expression, Jifeng couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"Ok?"
Suddenly, the communication sounded and Ji Feng put away his smile.
"Is this a communication from Fate and the others?"
Xue looked at Jifeng.
"Ah."
The holographic screen unfolded, and the images of Nanoha and Fate appeared on it.
"Fate, Nanoha, how's the auction going?"
"It's going pretty smoothly for now. Quite a few mechanical puppets have arrived, just as expected, but..."
"…but?"
Hayate sensed something was wrong, and Xue guessed what Nanoha wanted to say.
"The mechanical puppets this time aren't all autonomous like before. There are also some human-controlled models mixed in."
"Human control..."
Ji Feng fell into deep thought, while Xue also began to think about what would happen next, or in the near future.
Because she did not finish watching Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha SS in her previous life, she did not know the series of stories that happened after the auction.
At this moment, she temporarily lost her reference to the future development trajectory of the Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha world.
"Oh, right!"
"?"
Xue and Jifeng raised their heads at the same time when they heard this. The next second, a person who was unexpected by Jifeng but expected by Xue appeared in their sight.
"Yuno!?"
"Yuuno?"
The person who appeared on the holographic screen was our Se Diao (crossed out), our original and official partner of Nanoha, the grown-up Mr. Yuno.
"Alicia, Hayate, long time no see~"
Looking at his other two friends besides Nanoha and Fate, Yuno greeted them with a smile.
"Long time no see, Yuno~"
"By the way, Yuno, why are you at the auction?"
"I'm here to appraise and introduce the auction items~"
"I see..." Xue and Jifeng nodded.
……
After chatting for a while, the two sides disconnected the communication. After all, the mission of Nanoha and Fate was not officially over yet.
After glancing at the time, Xue and Hayate prepared to bid farewell to Knight Karim and return to the headquarters of Mobile Division 6.
"Karim, see you later~"
"Yes, you are welcome to come to the Holy King Church again, Your Majesty the Star King."
Before leaving, Karim remembered that Xue was actually the reincarnation of the Star King. Unconsciously, she had subconsciously regarded Xue as an ordinary friend of hers, rather than the three legendary Belka kings believed in by the church.
Xue and Hayate returned to the Sixth Department Headquarters by car. Coincidentally, Nanoha, Fate and the others also came back by magic helicopter.
It was already dusk, so everyone naturally went to the restaurant for dinner together, but Xue found that one of the four little ones was missing.
"By the way, where's Tiana?"
When Tingxue mentioned Tiana, everyone, especially Vita, looked gloomy.
“…What happened?” Ji Feng also realized that something was wrong.
“Here’s what happened…”
In order to prevent the other three little ones not far away from hearing, everyone turned on the telepathic communication line.
“I see…”
Just as she remembered, Tiana made a mistake while dealing with the mechanical puppet and almost backstabbed Ang.
Fortunately, Vita noticed it and blocked the fatal blow for Ang.
"Hmm...is everyone free after dinner?"
Except for Ji Feng who needed to go back to the office soon, everyone else looked at each other and nodded.
……
In the lounge, everyone gathered here.
"Alicia, here you go."
"Ah, thanks."
After taking the hot tea handed to her by Sally, the equipment designer and communications director of Section 6, Xue continued to listen to Vita's story.
"During my training, I often worried about Tiana... Young mages are eager to grow, so it's understandable that they might act recklessly, but she sometimes goes beyond her limits..."
"Did she encounter anything before coming here?"
Vita and the others looked at Nanoha and Fate, who were the ones most familiar with Tiana.
"Hmm..." Nanoha's expression became a little depressed, and she raised her hand to pull up a photo from the holographic screen.
"Who is this…"
Everyone was a little surprised when they saw the man in the ID photo and the word "died in the line of duty" in the information.
"…This is Tiana's brother, Tida Lanster. At the time, he was a Lieutenant First Class, serving in the Capital Air Force."
“…died at the age of 21.”
"He's a great elite..."
Everyone glanced at the other information on the holographic screen, and Fate took over Nanoha's words and continued.
"Yes, precisely because he was an elite... Lieutenant First Class Tidus died in the line of duty. Although he injured the fleeing illegal mage, he still escaped."
"However, thanks to the assistance of the Army Corps, the criminal was apprehended on the same day."
Nanoha continued.
"Regarding this incident, a supervisor made irresponsible comments, which sparked controversy at the time."
"What kind of… comments?"
As the instructor who spent the most time with Tiana, Vita realized that something was wrong.
"They found the criminal but let him go."
"It's clearly a disgrace to the Capital Air Force."
“Even if it costs his life, he should be brought to justice.”
"Something like 'useless trash...'"
"..."
Everyone was quite surprised that a superior would make such irresponsible remarks... It's outrageous.
"At that time, Tiana was only ten years old. Her only relative died in the line of duty, but the meaning of her death was completely denied..."
"That child must be very sad and upset..."
Xue could already imagine what Tiana looked like at that time...
"…So, Tiana decided to prove to everyone that the magic her brother taught her was not useless and that she was capable of taking on any difficult task."
"And... inherit his dream... become an executive officer... fulfill his brother's dream..."
"...That's why Tiana fights so hard."
Everyone was silent. No wonder Tiana was so eager to become stronger that she almost hurt her teammates by mistake.
