“Otto…
is he really dead?” Siegfried was still a bit dazed.
That man who toyed with the world, that insidious, cunning, and scheming man—was he truly gone just like that?
“It feels…
a bit surreal.” Welt also hadn’t expected Otto’s death to be so abrupt, but Kiana couldn’t help but interject.
What seemed like an abrupt death in their eyes was actually the result of Kiana’s exhaustive calculations.
“After all, there was an information gap.
Otto only knew I had mastered the power of the Herrscher of the Void, but he didn’t know that the Herrscher of the Void could hide a body within another dimension, concealing it from his sight.
He didn’t know that the Divine Key buried beneath Nagazora City was complete, and he certainly didn’t expect me to go back on my word and attack Schicksal once again.”
Kiana still didn’t dare to relax.
She had been planning to kill Otto ever since she reformed the Herrscher of the Void as a child.
To that end, she had continuously developed new space-related skills and used her foresight to obtain Jizo Mitama.
Only she knew the hardships she had endured along the way.
“You’ve worked hard, daughter…
Oh no!
Durandal!” Siegfried remembered Durandal, who had been left behind when he was suddenly teleported away.
Just as he spoke, Durandal arrived at the battlefield and saw Otto’s corpse.
“What did you do to the Lord Bishop?” Durandal’s Black Abyss White Flower locked onto Kiana and the others.
But in the next second, her vision blurred, and she lost consciousness.
Her body went limp and fell, only to be caught by Kiana.
“How is she?” Siegfried asked with concern.
Kiana simply waved him off, her voice tinged with a tsundere tone: “Who are you looking down on, you smelly old dad?
Don’t worry, I’ll definitely make Big Sister remember everything!”
Kiana withdrew the Kaslana bloodline awakening from Siegfried and instead connected herself to Durandal.
Using the Authorities of Space and Corruption, Kiana entered Durandal’s consciousness space, allowing her to relive her past life as the one named [Kiana Kaslana].
In the real world, Siegfried watched Durandal anxiously and asked Kiana urgently, “My dear daughter, how…
how long will she take…”
Big Sister will wake up soon.” Just as Kiana finished speaking, Durandal opened her eyes.
A single tear rolled down her cheek.
She had seen her past self and her mother.
Durandal’s gaze fell upon Siegfried.
Compared to the Siegfried in her memories, the current Siegfried looked much older and had a somewhat decadent air about him.
She then looked at Kiana.
The little girl from her memories had grown up and inherited her name.
In the consciousness space, she had also seen the life of this younger sister who had taken her name—a life that made her feel both proud and heartbroken as an elder sister.
“Do…
do you remember?
Ki…” Siegfried didn’t know how to address his two daughters anymore.
After all, he had initially given the name Kiana to the current Kiana because he thought his original daughter had died.
“Just call me Durandal or Bianka…
Mr.
Siegfried.” Although she had seen the memories, she had viewed them from a third-person perspective.
Durandal still felt a bit uncertain about how to face her father and sister.
“That’s fine too, Bianka…
Bianka Durandal Ataegina, it really is a wonderful name…” Siegfried felt a bit dejected, but he could understand Durandal’s feelings.
After all, it was normal to find it hard to accept having family again after being amnesiac for so long.
“Now, our family is finally reunited!” Kiana giggled and hugged Durandal and Siegfried.
Durandal was caught off guard, but…
seeing the emotions in Kiana’s sky-blue eyes, she calmed down and cautiously raised her hands to return the hug.
“[Bond with Durandal has significantly increased.
Obtained 5-star card: Durandal: Stellar Armor.
Please continue to increase favorability to obtain new cards.]”
The system’s notification sounded.
Kiana only needed to obtain Theresa’s card to unlock a new Kaslana bond passive, which would allow a second Kaslana bloodline awakening.
“Can I…
Coming back to her senses, Kiana saw the nervous Durandal and immediately hugged her, acting spoiled: “Of course you can, Big Sister~”
“Mm, little sister!” Durandal’s eyes seemed to light up.
The Herrscher of the Void, however, gave a jealous huff.
This sound reminded the newly reunited Kaslana family that there were others present.
“Ahem, please continue.
Don’t mind us.” Welt coughed lightly, trying his best to lower his presence.
Raiden Mei’s eyes were full of congratulations for Kiana’s family reunion, while the Herrscher of the Void was a bit jealous.
Unexpectedly, both of them were pulled into the large group hug by Kiana in the next second.
“Big Sister, Big Sister, this is Mei.
She’s the dearest friend I want to spend my life with.
And this is the Herrscher of the Void inside me; she’s also another big sister who takes care of and protects me!” As Kiana introduced the two, Durandal looked at the Herrscher of the Void and suddenly had a momentary lapse, blurting out: “Then shouldn’t you also call me Big Sister?”
“Hello, Big Sister,” Raiden Mei greeted politely.
The Herrscher of the Void, on the other hand, bristled and hissed at Durandal, “Call a mere ant ‘Big Sister’?
Don’t even think about it!”
Seeing the hissing Herrscher of the Void and the polite Raiden Mei, Durandal’s face turned slightly red.
After all, she hadn’t expected herself to say something so silly just now.
“What do you plan to do next, Kiana?” Durandal asked her sister.
Otto’s death could easily throw Schicksal into chaos; it needed a pillar of support.
“Hmm…
With Otto dead, logically, the one to inherit Schicksal should be Theresa.” Siegfried stroked his chin.
After all, Theresa was Otto’s granddaughter and his direct heir.
“No, I intend to take the position of Schicksal Overseer myself.” Kiana was very clear about Theresa’s current state.
Just as Otto had said, Theresa was still too naive.
Since Siegfried had no interest in the position, why couldn’t it be hers, Kiana Kaslana’s?
“In terms of bloodline, I am Big Sister’s clone, so I also possess the Schariac and Kaslana bloodlines.
As for the Apocalypse Family, isn’t there Theresa?
As long as Theresa is willing to nominate me, it’s basically a done deal.
And in terms of strength, I am a Herrscher, my best friend is also a Herrscher, and I’m even comrades-in-arms with Rin.
One could say I’m the most qualified for this position.”
