Chapter 39
Great, just great. Everyone here is a crybaby, with the exception of this cute little girl beside me.
Well, let's introduce ourselves for my own sanity.
"Hello, I'm Anna. Can you be my friend? You're the only one who would understand me with the introduction you did in the class." I mean, who would make a 4-year-old do an introduction when they barely know their own birthday?
Can't deny the fact that I've always forgotten my birthday, even to this day, despite the intelligence I have.
Oh, the introduction she made was something similar to an office woman giving a presentation to the whole class. She even explained how gravity works.
"I'm Mei. I remember you saying that you want to be a scientist in Fire Moth," Mei said. She observed me, looking me up and down.
"Yup, I'm gonna become a scientist and wait for the right person from the prison cell and marry him," I answered, making the little girl look at me with weird eyes.
I was only joking about marrying him, because my plan is to create a device that would allow me to travel to other worlds, visit my own world, then revive my cousin and have him all to myself.
In case he was reincarnated, I plan to find his whereabouts. Although I still don't have any idea how to do that, I'm a stubborn person and once I set my mind to something, I won't change my mind.
"You want to marry a criminal?" Mei asked, stating the most obvious thing.
"No, he wasn't a criminal. He would just show up in the prison cell of the most dangerous girl in the world," I said, as it was the truth. RIN would become the most dangerous being in the world if not for Amane showing up in the cell.
RIN has the ability to go inside any network just like a virus, and if she went on a rampage, there's a chance she could fire nuclear warheads into various countries.
Over time, I began to discuss various experiments I had conducted, and surprisingly, she could understand what I was saying and even offered her own ideas.
As time passed, we finally reached the age of 15 and both of us were entering Senba High School. This would be fun as Mei's springtime would begin here.
I had already reached level 1 million, and in my dungeon creation, I was fighting the original gods.
I gathered various battle experiences, and I created a flying fortress with the exact design of the Flying Garden of Babylon from the Fate series.
But I knew this wasn't enough. We were dealing with the most dangerous virus in the Imaginary Tree, one that even the ancient gods feared. Heck, even dimensional beings avoided this world thanks to the Honkai.
Honestly just imagining it made me scared of how strong Amane is.
He could control the Honkai if he wanted to, but he chose not to. Instead, he left it for Kiana. He was the type of person who would go to great lengths to ensure the happiness of those he deemed important.
Honestly, in my previous world, he was well-known as "Chadmane" because he would perform miracles to make his harem happy.
"Anna, stop reminiscing too much. You're always lost in your own world," MEI said, waving her hand in front of my face.
"Sheesh, Mei, don't interrupt me while I'm lost in memories," I teased, pointing at the white-haired guy. "Looks like your lover is here~"
"Tsk." Mei clicked her tongue in annoyance. Kevin always sought her attention and wanted her as his girlfriend. Honestly, Kevin and Mei were suitable for each other – an introvert and an extrovert. Now I miss my cousin; I would go down a path similar to Otto's if it's necessary, just to have him again.
"Anna, you're scaring me," Kevin said, shuddering at the way I looked at him. Mei nodded her head in agreement.
Did I make a weird expression just now?

Anna, Mei, Kevin, and Su were walking down the street together when suddenly a car crashed into a wall.
The impact caught their group by surprise, and suddenly everything connected to the electricity went out of control, including the stoplights.
Cars began crashing into the wall, with some avoiding the pedestrians while others collided with each other.
People started turning into zombies, and animals began transforming into giant beasts.
"ENK! ENK! ENK!" An alarm blared suddenly. "A huge Honkai Eruption has been detected in Nagazora." The announcement echoed as a large unit of soldiers surrounded Anna's group.
"Miss Anna, Miss Mei, we are soldiers of Fire Moth. We have been tasked to bring you to the HQ," the captain said, escorting us towards a military jeep.
"Did my father and mother evacuate from the area?" Anna asked, feigning panic despite having seen their location on the map.
"Dr. Leon and Dr. Alice are already at the HQ. They have tasked us with escorting you there," the soldier answered as she started the engine.
"ROAR!" A giant Honkai beast suddenly appeared in front of the jeep, but its hand was swiftly cut in half and its body sliced apart. The soldier and Kevin were taken by surprise, with Kevin being ready to leap into action with his baseball bat.

(Anna pov)
I couldn't help but despise this era as I observed the civilians succumbing to infection at an alarming rate, thanks to the intensified Honkai Energy.
I watch at the walking corpses revealed their bodies being corroded, and I couldn't help but regret not possessing a healing magic on par with Han Jihan's. Though I could accelerate their regenerative capabilities, the corrupting influence of the Honkai's energy were too potent for me to counteract.
It's no surprise that even with the brilliant minds of Mobius and Mei, they still faced defeat.

AN: This is the end of her pov, and in the later chapters, she will meet Amane.
