Chapter 56: Angel's Screaming Groundhog

While Saint Freya and Welt were discussing business, Angel and Kiana were having dinner.

It goes without saying why Angel didn't join the conversation.

And it's easy to understand why Kiana didn't join.

"Why aren't Himeko, Mei, and Bronya here? What did they do?"

"Yes, what did they do? I don't know either."

Angel and Kiana looked at each other, eating the lunch prepared by Raiden Mei, both equally confused.

However, it should be obvious which one was genuinely confused and which one was pretending.

Angel quickly emptied her lunch box. As a Herrscher, she could match Kiana's appetite.

Then, Angel put away the lunch box and got serious. "Kiana, forget about them for now. Have you found out what the monitor likes?"

"Ah? Well, sort of, not really..."

Kiana blinked cutely, then frowned in distress.

Angel was puzzled. "What's the situation?"

"I asked her what she likes, and she said there's nothing special. I asked her what she likes to do, and she said there's nothing special. I asked her if there's anything she wants, and she said there's nothing she wants... How can I find out!"

Kiana puffed up her face and shook her body angrily.

Angel: "(๑˘˘๑)..."

Don't panic, stay calm.

From the plot stage, Fu Hua is somewhat autistic now. Her politeness is just a mask, and her closed heart won't be easily approached. Moreover, she is still Otto's spy, so she naturally maintains a distance from Saint Freya's students.

In short, gaining Fu Hua's trust and closeness is more difficult than expected, and Angel is still patiently planning.

"Just be direct. I have no patience left!"

Angel slapped the lunch box and puffed up her cheeks unhappily.

While other Angels were making progress step by step, how could she stand still?

Kiana chewed the meatball in her mouth, looked at Angel's sudden irritable reaction, thought for a while, forked out her last meatball, and offered it to Angel.

"Calm down, ah~~"

Angel subconsciously opened her mouth.

Then, her angry squirrel-like reaction instantly dissipated, and she squinted her eyes happily.

"Good times~~"

"Right, right, I also think today's lunch box is very rich. Is it some festival we don't know about?"

Kiana smiled and cleaned up her tableware.

...

That afternoon, they didn't wait for Himeko, Mei, and Bronya to come back to class.

The school bell rang, and Kiana sat up straight, bursting her sleepy snot bubble. She grabbed her shoulder bag and rushed out without saying a word.

"Let's go find Mei~~"

But her bag seemed hooked by a steel pipe, and no matter how hard Kiana stepped, she couldn't move forward.

"Huh?"

Kiana turned her head and saw Angel sitting upright, staring at Fu Hua walking out of the classroom, holding Kiana's bag with one hand.

"Hey!"

Kiana used all her strength, her face flushed, trying to pull out the bag, but Angel's little hand was as immovable as an iron statue. Tired, Kiana squatted down and rolled her eyes:

"What do you want to do?"

"Come on, accompany me to intercept her!"

"I don't want to! I want to find Mei! I haven't seen Mei for a long time!"

"Two strawberry cakes."

"Hey, do you think such a little thing can bribe me? I tell you, Mei is my..."

"Three. And I'll sleep in your room at night and be your pillow."

"Deal! I know the general route of the class monitor after school. Come on, I'll take you on a shortcut!"

The two shook hands in a friendly manner and reached a win-win agreement. Then Kiana excitedly directed the route.

...

Five minutes later, Fu Hua was walking on the road to the library.

She stopped beside a landscaped grass on the side of the road.

"Hey, Kiana, Angel, what do you want to talk to me about?"

Fu Hua had a calm expression and sighed softly. The next second, two cute little heads popped out of the grass.

Angel's face was serious, and Kiana was smiling. Both of them had some green grass and leaves on their heads, obviously, they have been waiting here in advance.

Then, under Fu Hua's and Kiana's gaze, Angel stood in front of Fu Hua, patted the grass and leaves off her body, bowed, and held out a thick envelope with both hands.

"Please teach me martial arts!"

"Well, before that, I want to know what this is?"

"The apprenticeship gift, my current salary! And I will pay it on time every month until I become a master!"

Angel kept bowing, raised her head, tightened her face, and said seriously in a soft voice.

"That's not necessary."

Fu Hua was a little speechless.

She felt the sincerity, but Fu Hua had never seen this way of expressing sincerity before.

Fu Hua clenched her fist, put it to her mouth, and coughed dryly. "Well, it's good character to treat money as dirt. But... Anyway, I only know a little bit of basic boxing and kicking skills inherited from my family. It's nothing great. Instead of looking for me, you might as well practice more basic physical skills in practical classes."

Fu Hua refused somewhat helplessly. It's not that she cherishes her skills. It's that the basic physical skills developed by Otto are already a highly streamlined universal version of her unique skills.

In terms of tempering the physique and exercising control of Honkai energy, they are sufficient for high-level female warriors.

As for the real unique skills, the talent requirements exclude more than 99% of people. Fu Hua is pessimistic about this. She doesn't think Angel is an exception. Moreover, her current identity as a spy is not suitable for exposing too much power.

Angel took a deep breath. After following Fu Hua for more than half a month, she got used to her, so much time and effort were not in vain. She had been tolerant of this kind of autistic personality.

"(￣^￣)ゞhum!"

Angel stood up, walked to Fu Hua with a fierce momentum, slapped the envelope into Fu Hua's hand with a "snap", and said angrily:

"Take it, I'll wait for you at the training ground tomorrow morning! Kiana, let's go."

"Oh! Goodbye, class monitor~~"

Fu Hua stood there, looking at the slender backs of the two girls running away quickly in a daze.

After a long time, she blinked her eyes, looked at the envelope in her hand, and said hesitantly:

"I didn't agree either, classmate Angel..."

However, Angel, who should have heard this sentence, had disappeared without a trace.

...

"You got the wrong direction, Jingwei has never been an active personality! She has always been passive, just like when she was sealed by Kiana and was rescued!"

"Jingwei is a bottom, a bottom!"

"You should learn from Kiana's recklessness; that is the correct way to solve the problem!"

Angel made a painful judgment and felt sorry for her mistakes over the past weeks.

It had been several months. If she had found that direction earlier, with her effort, she would have learned so many real skills by now.

"Sure enough, I still have to be strong and aggressive! As long as I am strong enough, she will retreat again and again until she teaches me Taixuan Eminence!"

"Finally, I have sorted out my thoughts. Okay, starting tomorrow, let's drain the martial arts inventory of the immortal!"

"Angel, fight!"

Angel lay in Kiana's soft and fragrant arms, squinted her eyes comfortably, and fell asleep with the expectation of tomorrow.

But tonight, she had a strange dream.

In the dream, there was a snow-white and boundless space. Angel's mind was not very clear, and she walked forward subconsciously.

Until she saw an exquisite and beautiful crystal throne with no one sitting on it.

Around the throne, a graceful girl with silver hair spread on the ground sat behind the crystal throne, holding potato chips in one hand and a game console in the other.

Angel poked her head out from the edge of the throne, and the girl seemed to notice something and turned to look at Angel.

"..."×2

The two looked at each other, and the whole world was frighteningly quiet.

The girl had golden eyes with cross patterns, and a silly and beautiful face exactly like Kiana. The corners of her mouth had crumbs left after a big mouthful of potato chips. After seeing Angel, her expression changed rapidly, and soon exuded a creepy murderous intent.

Angel clung to the edge of the crystal throne motionlessly.

She recognized the queen, so under her expressionless little face, she began to scream like a groundhog in her heart.

'Gyaaaaaaaaaaghhh! ! ! '
