In the video, after the real combat training, Kiana rushed non-stop to the classroom, listening to Himeko's lecture.
And with Himeko's crisp voice, as well as Kiana's snoring sounds from deep sleep, people got a more detailed understanding of the disaster brought by Honkai, and it was also the first time they learned about the concept of the "Herrscher."
When they heard Himeko say that the destructive power of the "Herrscher" was comparable to a nuclear bomb, people in the real world instinctively sucked in a breath of cold air.
An uncontrollable nuclear bomb, just thinking about it was terrifying.
The scene suddenly shifted to the principal's office. Inside the office, Theresa was in a call with a Valkyrie wearing a black and white lace maid outfit. The video very considerately displayed subtitles for the audience as an introduction.
[Rita Rossweisse, one of the three active S-rank Valkyries of Schicksal, Vice-Captain of Schicksal's strongest Valkyrie squad "Immortal Blades."]
Through the conversation between the two, people also understood the purpose of Rita's call.
To summarize, as Schicksal's branch in the Far East region, St. Freya Academy had submitted the report related to the Moonlight Throne, which was brought back to Schicksal HQ by Van.
After reading the report, Schicksal Overseer Otto ordered Rita to verify the report and the battleship, and to attend this year's Valkyrie exam as a guest.
At the end of the call, Rita also praised Theresa for being as cute as a doll, making Theresa extremely embarrassed.
After teasing Theresa, Rita hung up the call, leaving Theresa alone, disoriented in the wind.
In the real world, the appearance of the "Herrscher of Binding" Rita added another member to many netizens' personal harem rosters.
[Gotta say, this Mihoyo company really knows what they're doing! Hiss~ Maid outfit and black stockings! Prprprpr...]
[Stop licking the screen, bro! You're about to break your monitor!]
[Mind your business! I'm licking my wife's legs, what about it! I'm proud!]
[But seriously, this Rita... looks are one thing, but I get the feeling she has some hidden agenda at St. Freya Academy.]
[A bad woman? Isn't that even better! Rita, please mess with my feelings... no, mess with my body!!!]
While netizens were going crazy as usual, the video scene changed again.
After a day of training, the exhausted Kiana returned to the dorm to rest, but the moment she lay down, she felt a wave of dizziness in her head.
"My head... kinda hurts..."
Right after, a strange red light flashed by.
Kiana suddenly found herself at the gate of St. Freya Academy, and at some point, her pajamas had also been replaced by a Valkyrie combat suit.
Seeing this eerie atmosphere, many netizens immediately reacted.
[F*ck me, my DNA moved—I can't watch this!]
[What the hell!]
[That red light!]
[That sound effect!]
[Mihoyo's writers, will you ever stop?!]
At this moment, a dark shadow flashed by. Kiana looked ahead cautiously and shouted, "Who! Who's there?!"
"Lost little girl... welcome home~★" A strange female voice echoed.
"Who are you? Why am I here?" Kiana asked with a puzzled expression.
The strange female voice continued, "Why? The gears of fate have turned again, and now have finally reached this place. Welcome home~ Kiana Kaslana."
"Home? But this is clearly..."
Hearing the other's wording, Kiana suddenly became alert.
"No! Who exactly are you?! Why do you know my name?!"
"Just your name?" The strange voice mocked, "That's not all I know~"
"What do you mean?"
"Kiana Kaslana, a poor soul abandoned by her father, who's never even seen her mother... Haven't you ever wondered why you've never had your mother's company since birth? Why your father left you?"
"You! What exactly do you know?!"
"Oh~ Did I finally pique your interest?"
The strange voice said smugly, "You should know, even in your dreams, I've always been watching you~ So I can say I know everything about you... Your life, from start-to-finish, has all been a lie~☆"
"Stop joking!" Kiana shouted, "A shadowy figure like you won't shake me with just a few words!"
"Is that so? Then I'll now give you a chance to ask one question, about your father, or your mother."
Upon hearing she could learn about her parents, Kiana instinctively wanted to ask. Just as she was about to decide, Van's words from earlier suddenly echoed in her mind, "Kiana, if one day you're facing an unknown enemy, the most important thing you need to do isn't anything else, but to find a way to get information out of them."
Those words in her mind gave Kiana inspiration. Rather than asking about a mother she had no knowledge of, it was better to ask about the father she at least knew a bit.
At the very least, through the other's response, she could verify if they really knew everything about her.
"My father, huh?"
The strange voice sneered, "You surely know about the 'Second Eruption' in Siberia 14 years ago, right?
Just like your Mei in Changkong City became the Third Herrscher, a certain girl became the Second Herrscher in that incident, known as the Herrscher of Void..."
Then, with the strange voice's revelations, Kiana's origins were brought to light.
Upon hearing that both her parents were S-rank Valkyries of Schicksal, not just Kiana, even netizens in the real world were shocked.
[Didn't expect my silly-looking wife to be a second-gen Valkyrie!]
[Alright alright! Looks like I gotta eat this soft rice (rely on her)!]
[Can't believe it—Mei, who always took Ls before, turned out to be the Third Herrscher?!]
Back in the video, after learning the truth from the strange voice, Kiana looked stunned in disbelief.
But what shocked her even more was that as the scene shifted, the Mei she'd been longing for suddenly appeared before her.
However, this Mei seemed different. She looked coldly at Kiana and said blandly, "Kiana, I've had enough of you. In the squad, you're always dragging us down, always needing protection. You're nothing compared to Bronya and me..."
"W-What? Mei... why are you saying this..."
"Because you're too weak, Kiana. Too weak~☆"
While Kiana hesitated, the 'Mei' in front of her kept changing into Bronya, Himeko, and even Theresa.
Seeing her former friends now verbally attacking her one by one, Kiana's heart couldn't help but waver.
"Kiana, don't you understand yet why Siegfried left you?"
"It's because, after giving birth to you, Cecilia hadn't even recovered and was forced to fight a Herrscher, ultimately dying in battle."
"Schicksal Overseer Otto Apocalypse launched a Honkai Fission Bomb at Siberia, with the goal of killing both Cecilia and the Second Herrscher together."
"Poor Siegfried, he couldn't face his wife's death, and even more so couldn't face the daughter who caused it..."
Hearing this, Kiana broke down and shouted, "Stop... stop talking!"
But her cries didn't stop the other. Instead, the voice grew more triumphant, "Kiana, you should understand better than anyone, the greatest misfortune of your parents' lives, was giving birth to you!"
In the end, the strange voice's words were like sharp blades, piercing Kiana's heart. Taking advantage of Kiana's mental breakdown, the strange voice manipulated the fake Mei and others to launch an attack on her.
[WTF! This is so unfair! Straight up ganging up on her?]
[Damn it, this plot is infuriating! It's bad enough she got trashed verbally, now she's losing the fight too!]
[Worst part is, you probably can't even kill these illusions, can you?!]
[Who was it that said this plot was healthy, positive, and uplifting?! Show yourself!!]

[Mr. Rick: So you're the one who led the enemy here, huh?!]
