Chapter 246 - Chapter 248: A Little Happy Photo

"Here it is..."

Kallen cautiously observed the person standing beside her.

"Your... or rather, the interior of the Kaslana family stigmata."

A blurred figure with white hair appeared next to Kallen.

"Instead, I am an intelligent recorder."

"Is this the legacy of our family's Wise Master?" Kallen rubbed her head upon hearing this.

"But what about before that... especially those first two dishes?"

"Not even dogs would eat that, right?"

The intelligent camera beside her made a sound as if it were gritting its teeth.

"Indeed." Kallen nodded in agreement.

The only thing I can say is that even a dog would shake its head at those first two dishes.

"But speaking of which, why would there be such a level?" Kallen asked, a bit puzzled.

With those three things together, anyone would know which one to choose!

"Because the original body wanted the Kaslana family to remember forever that not even dogs would eat the food prepared by Dr. MEI and Dr. Mobius."

Even Kallen could feel the intense and terrifying resentment emanating from the other party.

However, Kallen suddenly remembered something.

"Um... so you've eaten it?"

"..."

The blurred figure suddenly fell silent.

"Even though I am only a fleeting image, please do not remind me of those terrible things."

"..."

Kallen thought of the appearance of the two dishes and nodded.

One must admit that the scene of eating such things could truly be quite terrifying.

"However, speaking of that," the image began slowly.

"Those two dishes are actually a legacy."

"One is the Soul Steel Puppet Technology of the eldest sister, and the other is Mobius's Artificial Body Technology..."

"But, in general, it is impossible to obtain them."

"Why?"

"Because if you choose those two dishes, you might lose consciousness and be teleported away while eating them."

"And once you are teleported, you will never be able to enter again."

The image's tone was tinged with sadness.

"The essence of this inheritance is simply to extract memories, modify them, and present them to you..."

"The original body, or rather, I, have experienced something very painful."

"Were you forced to eat that?" Kallen seemed to understand something.

"You guessed correctly."

Kallen felt that the photograph beside her seemed to tremble.

"That's quite terrifying." Kallen nodded with a hint of pity, but then thought of something else.

"Eh? Does that mean our family has three inheritances? All from the Wise Master?"

"Yes."

"Why so many?"

"Because I am responsible for continuing the family line in my family... which includes all of you."

"This is a privilege that my older sisters granted me out of respect, to give the Kaslana family three paths."

The image said with a sigh.

"All questions have answers."

"Now it is time to talk about the legacy you have chosen: you use a greatsword, right?"

"Eh... I know a little, but I feel more comfortable with twin pistols," Kallen responded truthfully.

After all, the Kaslana family's Judgment of Shamash would definitely fall into her hands in the future.

From what she already knew about Twin-Pistol Kallen.

"Only weaklings use twin pistols!" The voice in the image suddenly became enraged.

"If that Su hadn't abandoned me and fled, my older sisters wouldn't have forced me to eat that horrible food!"

"But I am a girl."

Kallen was not angry; she simply tilted her head innocently.

"..."

The image sighed.

It seems that is true.

"Consider yourself lucky; I also have records of dual-wielding skills."

After all, among her companions, the second eldest sister and the eldest sister were in love with their master.

While he and Su were the closest.

"I certainly don't know the skill of using two weapons, but there are records of it."

The scene before Kallen's eyes changed; there was a different boy, but the adults remained the same.

"Are you ready?"

"Ready."

Seeing that they were getting down to business, Kallen took a deep breath and prepared herself.

"Good, begin!" With the image's command, Kallen's vision turned black.

When she opened her eyes, a smiling face appeared before her.

Then, the other person slowly opened his mouth and asked.

"Su, what do you want to learn?"

"Wait a moment, doesn't this voice sound familiar?"

...

"Ugh... my head hurts." Kallen rubbed her temples.

A moment ago, she experienced a moving lesson from God through the perspective of a boy named "Su."

That's right!

That voice definitely came from God!

"Do you understand?"

"Mostly?"

Kallen's head was spinning.

"Regardless, even if you don't remember it, I don't have the authority to play it back again."

The image said indifferently.

"Alright, I'm sending you out now."

"Remember, this inheritance can only be reused after at least thirty years."

"Wait, wait! I have something else to ask you!"

Hearing the words "sending out," Kallen, forgetting her dizziness, exclaimed loudly.

"I'll ask you."

"Um... is God the wise master of our family?"

"Lord God?" The tone of the image was a bit strange.

"Yes! Lord God! The voice is exactly the same!" Kallen knew what was important and went straight to the point.

A Kaslana was always very reliable in important matters.

"That should be it." The image nodded.

"We couldn't see him at that time either."

"You can see him because we restored it manually when extracting the memories later."

However, after saying this, the image fell silent for a moment.

Wait a minute.

"Could it be that my descendant was chosen by the master?"

Hmm...

The image inexplicably remembered his own past.

The scene of being forced to taste food made him feel a wave of malice.

"Dr. MEI, Mobius, you were ruthless at the beginning."

"So don't blame me for being ruthless too!"

"Lord God... What a nice title!"

"Now that I think about it, that's what Aponia used to call the master back then."

He smiled at Kallen in the photo, although his face was blurred.

"Child, are you interested in cooking... or rather, making noodles?"

"Ah?"

Kallen didn't understand why he was suddenly asking her that.

The image continued sweetly: "Back then, after very deep reflection and diligent research, I created the '108 Noodle Styles'."

"They encompass the essence of noodles from all over the world..."

"Girl, would you like to learn them? It's a gift, a hidden reward."

"Um... do I learn?" Kallen gave a tentative answer.

Since it's free anyway, she might as well learn it.

"Alright! This way!"

...

"Hmph, hmph, hmph..."

As the image watched Kallen's figure disappear into space, an evil smile formed on his lips.

"Dr. MEI? Mobius?"

"Don't you like to argue?"

"Don't you like to make strange and unappetizing dishes?"

"Then don't blame me for being ruthless."

"I'm going to send my family's descendants to steal the master's culinary skills!"

"When you come out in the future, Dr. MEI, just wait and call that girl 'Master's Wife'!"

"Mobius, you should go find a corner and cry!"

Wait a minute.

As he thought of something, the image suddenly calmed down.

"If it really works, wouldn't my true self have to call that little girl 'Master's Wife'?"

Well, it's not so bad.

After all, if you look at it from another perspective, the seniority of the original body wouldn't be greater than that of the master.

Wait, even if the master doesn't mind this kind of thinking, the older sisters will probably silence me.

The image seemed to think of some great horror and the blurred figure trembled.

Hmm?

That doesn't seem right either.

The original body will suffer.

"But... what does this have to do with me, an image in the Kaslana inheritance?"

The main body won't be happy, but I am happy!

...

"Dizzy..."

Kallen sat in the chair, looking completely bewildered.

"What have you learned?" Otto asked while pouring water for Kallen.

"Cooking... cooking?" Kallen replied dazed.

"...?"

Question marks appeared over the heads of Nagamitsu and Otto.

"Is cooking a family tradition?"

"Oh, no, no! It's not cooking, it's making noodles." Kallen seemed to sense that something was wrong and corrected herself quickly.

"...?"

This correction makes absolutely no difference!

"The legacy of the Kaslana family really fits their style." Otto sighed.

Although it sounds strange, it's actually not that unusual.

"Ah, no, no, no! It's actually a dual-wielding technique!"

As Kallen regained her senses, she immediately realized she had said something incorrect.

"It was God who personally taught me the dual-weapon techniques!"

"Taught by God personally?" Otto's gaze sharpened.

"Even while making noodles?"

"Eh, they are not noodles."

Tian Shi reflected for a moment and then said.

"Alright, Kallen, tell me what happened with the inheritance."

"Whoa..."

...

Ten minutes later.

Although Kallen's language skills were not very good, with Otto as her professional translator, she managed to explain herself.

Tian Shi's feelings were somewhat complicated.

The Gun-fu technique he taught Su was actually taken from Bianca.

From the orthodox Kaslana Gun-fu.

Even though little Bianca had only forgotten some basic details, that didn't stop Tian Shi from practicing it.

As a result, after going in circles, this technique is now known as the technique of the Kaslana family.

An unexpected closed loop.

What a coincidence!

Otto, for her part, also experienced mixed feelings.

Being able to truly see the face of God and receive instructions from him...

Well, although she already has the latter, the former remains something enviable!

"I knew that the Kaslana family was the family with the closest ties to this old man."

Void Archives exerted pressure on Otto routinely.

"Tsk tsk tsk, this kind of advantage..."

"Judging by this, the Kaslana family must have been raised by Dr. MEI and the others as the follower family of this old man."

"After all, that old man himself is quite charismatic and has excellent teaching skills."

"In addition to the filter passed down from generation to generation... tsk tsk tsk."

Otto remained silent.

Void Archives attacked while the iron was hot.

"Didn't you see how her eyes practically shone after going in and looking around?"

"My Lord God! My Lord God! Can you continue teaching me Gun-fu?"

Kallen was now clinging to Tian Shi.

"Didn't you remember it?"

"Cough... that business with the 108 noodle movements is making me dizzy."

"Bang! I remembered 100%, but I forgot 70%." Kallen said with some awkwardness.

Although she's a bit silly most of the time, she's not stupid at all when it comes to crucial things.

She didn't remember the technique, but the deity who taught it is right beside her!

In the past, Kallen wouldn't have been so direct.

But now that the deity is considered equivalent to her sage, she no longer needs to feel burdened.

"Look, they've already gotten closer!"

"Don't use those little tricks." Otto thought to herself coldly.

"The matter of seniority is obvious: if you say one more word, I will report you to god."

"..."

Are you saying we can't play this game if you snitch on someone?

The words Void Archives wanted to say were immediately swallowed.

Alright, although she also thinks seniority is a problem.

After all, the generation gap is enormous.

"Fine, do what you want, but don't cry later."

Void Archives may lose the battle, but she will never lose the fight.

However, Otto no longer had any intention of arguing and instead asked about things that mattered more to her.

"Do you have the technology for the other two options Kallen mentioned saved?"

"I don't know." Void Archives hesitated for a moment before answering.

"After all, I don't even know how much knowledge I have stored..."

"But this kind of knowledge is probably top secret."

"Something that even I, as a librarian, cannot access."

"Is it really that important?"

"Don't underestimate women."

Void Archives' words seem illogical, but they reveal a truth.

"Don't speak as if I weren't a woman."

"A girl who doesn't even have breasts shouldn't talk about women."

Void Archives simply wanted to annoy Otto.

"No breasts, no butt... Alright, just give me Kallen."

"I feel like I have a better future with her."

"..."

"What's wrong, Miss Otto? You don't look well." Nagamitsu looked at Otto with concern.

"No, it's nothing."

Otto looked at Nagamitsu's physique and took a deep breath.

Or... we could just perish along with Void Archives.

Neither should live any longer!

"Ahem! Speaking of those top-secret files, I don't have access, but there is one person who does."

Void Archives understood it was better not to provoke Otto when she was about to explode.

"Who?"

Otto suppressed her urge to explode and asked.

"Of course it's that old man!" Void Archives said naturally.

"All of that was prepared for him."

"If he doesn't have the authority, who else would?"

"I just don't know how to authenticate it... But if we take a step back, it can..."

Void Archives' words stopped abruptly.

The next moment, even her voice was filled with sadness.

"Damn it! Did they actually install a lock that no one can open?"

"And then waited for that old bastard to hack it and get it for himself?"

"I think that is the most realistic conclusion you have reached today."
