Chapter 57 - Chapter 57: Future Plans (Part 2)

"As for the matter with your other niece Kiana, you don't need to worry about it for now. When the right time comes, she will come to your side."

Since it concerned Kiana, Shun definitely had to handle it personally especially now that he had already caused some butterfly effects.

That beginner dungeon in Nagazora City Shun had to keep it under control. As the place where the dream began, although the dungeon difficulty wasn't high, the impact it brought was enormous.

It could be said that everything Shun had done since crossing over couldn't compare to the influence of the third Honkai eruption in Nagazora City.

"The intelligence all came from you, so I'm reassured if you handle it." Although Theresa wasn't a good leader, she at least understood delegation. In areas she didn't understand, she would never make operations like "advance the front line ten meters" or "rotate the gun barrel 15 degrees to the right."

It could only be said that the abstract level of micro-management mastery of Chiang Kai-shek was something ordinary people couldn't achieve. If he had to make an analogy, Theresa would be Liu Shan?

Then wouldn't Shun become Zhuge Liang? However, he wouldn't be like the Chancellor, exerting himself to the utmost until his dying breath. He had quite a few thoughts about talking back to his superiors.

"As for Siegfried's side, to be honest, Siegfried is in quite a dangerous state right now. He is like an unstable bomb right now. If things go wrong, he could explode at any moment."

To tell the truth, although Siegfried barely qualified to activate Honkai corrosion, the side effects were severe unless the ancestor logged in to play for him.

If things went wrong, Siegfried's Honkai beast genes could go out of control, and it would be perfectly normal for him to freeze an entire country.

"What happened to Siegfried? The last time I saw him, he was still full of vigor!" Theresa was very surprised and worried. Although they were romantic rivals and she often said it would be best if Siegfried died early, they still had more than ten years of old friendship.

Moreover, Siegfried had once saved Theresa's life. If one day Siegfried really died, Theresa felt she would still be quite sad.

"The matter is a bit complicated. It's the side effect of the second Honkai eruption. You wouldn't understand." Theresa's memories of the second Honkai eruption had been wiped by Otto, so the current Theresa didn't even know how to use Judas's zero-rated power.

Theresa was a bit annoyed by this feeling of not understanding anything. Everything had to be explained by Shun. Although this way she didn't need to use her brain, the feeling of not knowing anything herself really gave Theresa a sense of powerlessness.

"Then what can I do?" Theresa realized that besides helping Shun transfer Ana to her Japanese Branch, it seemed there was nothing else she could do for him.

"It's fine. Just smile. You can treat me as the type who doesn't easily trust others." This wasn't that Shun really didn't trust Theresa; it was just that there were too many variables, and the risks needed to be borne by Shun himself.

"Then aren't I still unable to help you?" Back when Siegfried defected from Schicksal, Theresa couldn't help. Now she still couldn't help. This feeling that everyone was working hard while she alone was slacking off was hard for Theresa to accept.

I also want to do something within my ability. Theresa almost said that Herrscher password.

"How is that possible? Not to mention how much you helped me by transferring Ana to Japan Branch for me, just having you stand on my side means Otto that old man will more or less take your feelings into consideration. That's already a huge help."

After all, Otto was the person in this world who doted on Theresa the most. As long as it didn't cause too much impact on his plan to revive Kallen, Otto would let Theresa do as she pleased.

"As for Siegfried's matter, don't worry, I'll take care of it." Siegfried's body was something the current Anti-Entropy definitely couldn't handle, and Schicksal had relatively little research on MANTISs.

So they couldn't solve Siegfried's physical problem. But the key was… Shun was from World Serpent! When it came to research on MANTISs, which force could compare to World Serpent?

In the plot, World Serpent had captured Siegfried for so long. Although they only locked him up, it could also be considered protecting him.

It was just that Siegfried himself had a knot in his heart and couldn't gain the recognition of the Kaslana Stigmata will.

"Then… I'll trouble you." Theresa slightly bowed and gave Shun a bow. Had she stayed in Japan for too long and picked up the spirit of the bowing craftsman?

"It's fine, it's fine. Let's part ways here for now. You go help me get Ana over. If I need your help in the future, I definitely won't let you stay idle."

"Keep in touch when you have time!"

As Shun spoke, he opened a portal and teleported himself back. After all, he had really set up bait. It would be a waste if he didn't catch anything.

Watching Shun leave, leaving only the two roadside stall chairs on the mountaintop, Theresa let out a soft sigh, then immediately perked up.

Although she felt she had been quite useless today, she had ultimately received a lot of good news whether it was the whereabouts of the real Kiana or matters concerning Siegfried and the others.

Perhaps this was the most meaningful day she had had in these past few years?

Theresa felt that since Shun trusted her so much, she should give the proper response to the Shun who trusted her.

She decided. She would immediately go back to find that old man, act spoiled and throw a tantrum. Theresa refused to believe that her always doting grandpa would refuse such a small request.

"Judas! Skateboard mode!" Accompanied by a delicate shout, Theresa lightly raised her jade-like hand. The Judas in her hand, emitting a mysterious glow, was casually thrown out by her. Judas drew a graceful arc in the air and then steadily floated in mid-air, as if held up by an invisible force.

Theresa's figure flashed. Like a light swallow, she leaped high and landed precisely on top of Judas.

Immediately after, Theresa stomped hard with her foot. Judas shot forward like a bolt of lightning. The wind whistled past her ears as Theresa followed the original path back the way she came.

Nighttime, Schariac residence. Shun carried a bucket of fish to the front door and happened to run into Friedrich, whose bucket was completely empty.

"Father-in-law went air force today?" Shun teased Friedrich.

"Nonsense. Share some with me and I won't be air force." With that, Friedrich tried to snatch Shun's bucket.

Fish were the dignity of a fishing enthusiast. How could Shun let his little father-in-law snatch it? He wasn't some emotion god who had been bewitched.

"Father-in-law, you just like to set up bait in one spot. The fish are already full. Who would bite your hook? It's fine if you like setting up in one place, but you fish there every day. It would be strange if you could catch any fish."

"Hiss..." Hearing this, Friedrich felt as if clouds had parted to reveal the sun. As a fishing enthusiast with decades of experience, he definitely wasn't lacking in technique. Could it really be that there was something wrong with his bait setup?

"Hey, don't run! Come back and finish explaining!" Friedrich still wanted to ask, but Shun had already slipped away, opened the door, and run inside.

It seemed today his air force result was unavoidable...
