What?! You want me to become the Herrscher of Finality?!

Late at night, after waiting for dinner to end, everyone returned to their rooms and dormitories.

Thinking back to this dinner, everyone's faces were no longer as cheerful as they were during previous dinners. Instead, this time there was more silence.

...In Fu Hua's room

"Sirin's consciousness was suppressed... Wasn't it really you who did it, old friend?"

"Does it really make sense for you to ask these questions now? If I'm not mistaken, there should be a data monitor left by you on the Shadow Knight's equipment. You... Haven't you seen it clearly?"

In a dark room, Fu Hua was reporting the results of this mission to Otto over the phone.

"Don't care so much, after all, I just asked casually."

Otto's iconic voice came from the other end of the phone, and while speaking, Otto also cleverly avoided the fact that he had installed monitoring equipment on the Shadow Knight Battlesuit, but Fu Hua didn't care.

So, the two continued to chat.

"...Let's not talk about these for now. What are you going to do about Bai Mo's death and Kiana's next arrangements?"

"If possible, I hope you can let Kiana continue to stay in St. Freya Academy. After all, the consciousness of Sirin in her body has been sealed, so Kiana now has no value to you."

She didn't make too many calculations because Fu Hua was only thinking about how to properly arrange Bai Mo's death and the fact that Bai Mo had asked her to take care of Kiana before she died.

One day, a whole day, Fu Hua didn't really relax. Even at the dinner party, she only ate a few bites and came back early.

Because until now, her mind still lingered on the relieved smile that Bai Mo showed to her before she died.

Obviously, Bai Mo at that time must have used some unknown method to eavesdrop on what Otto said to her.

Therefore, in that situation, Bai Mo must have known that she had been abandoned, but in order not to embarrass herself, she resolutely hugged Sirin and jumped into the imaginary space.

"Yes, it must be like this," Fu Hua thought silently in her heart.

Because this is the only guess that can explain Bai Mo's behavior at that time. After all, who doesn't want to live?

Therefore, the more Fu Hua thought about it, the guiltier she felt towards Bai Mo. It was because of this that Fu Hua felt she had to take good care of Kiana. At least... before Sirin's consciousness woke up, she had to protect Kiana.

"The death of that Valkyrie? ...Don't worry, old friend. I will arrange all her affairs. After all, I have always respected the Valkyries willingly sacrifice themselves for humanity."

"I hope you can do what you say. Then, what about Kiana?"

Although Fu Hua had a big prejudice against Otto's character, she could choose to give Otto a chance in this matter.

After all, Bai Mo's death can be said to be caused by Otto's selfishness.

"Kiana... Indeed, given her current situation, Kiana does not have much use on me."

"But since you, my old friend, want her to continue to stay in St. Freya Academy, then I will do as you say, but this also means that your mission will continue."

Otto's voice paused for a while. Obviously, he was thinking about the consequences of doing so. But after thinking it over, Otto finally agreed to Fu Hua's proposal and chose to let Kiana continue to stay in St. Freya Academy.

"Just continue the mission. Just like before, if Sirin's consciousness in Kiana shows signs of awakening, I will tell you as soon as possible."

-----------------------------

Three days later, in the principal's office of St. Freya Academy.

"What's wrong, Theresa, are you still worried about the resignation of Mr. Yang?"

Expertly taking out a cup of bitter melon juice from Judah and placing it in front of Theresa, Himeko gently rubbed her already sore shoulders.

"No... That teacher's matter has been dealt with long ago, and the new history teacher has been recruited. It is estimated that he will come to work tomorrow."

Looking at the bitter melon juice in front of her, Theresa did not drink it in one breath as usual but ignored it directly. After all, she was in a very complicated mood now.

Facing Theresa's very abnormal behavior that would never appear in daily life, "If it weren't for Teacher Welt..."

Thinking of this, Himeko also understood it instantly.

"Is it... because of Bai Mo? What's up, Theresa, have you found out anything?"

Although in her heart, Himeko had long believed that Bai Mo would have an accident during that mission, she still hoped that Theresa could tell her that Bai Mo might still be alive.

Don't let anything happen! Don't let it be an irreversible situation! Even if it's just an injury, even if it's just an injury!

At this time, Himeko hoped that Theresa's answer would not be too cruel.

In response, Theresa first looked up at Himeko. After making sure that the other party was ready, Theresa slowly put the report in her hand on the table and then spoke.

"Bai Mo, she died in that mission..."

At this point, Theresa could no longer hold back the pain in her heart. Her eyes turned slightly red, and she burst into tears until tears flowed from her eyes.

On the other hand, Theresa's words pierced Himeko's heart like a sword. Looking at the report in front of her, Himeko pretended to be calm and turned the page of the death report with her hands that had been shaking for a long time.
