But speaking of it, an absolute good guy like Welt Yang is simply a saint (no derogatory meaning). He may have no personal desires except saving the world. It's really hard to anger him. What should she do?
Well... she got it!
Isn't he an undercover agent in Saint Freya now? Isn't an undercover agent most afraid of being exposed?
Lin Ling thought quickly and immediately came up with a good idea.
She pretended to be on alert and spoke to Welt Yang who was approaching.
*Who are you?!"
"Lin Ling, don't be nervous," Fu Hua explained. "There was no history class yesterday, so you didn't see him. Actually, he's our history teacher."
"Oh, I see." Lin Ling scratched the back of her head innocently. "I thought he was the leader of Anti-Entropy."
"Pfft!"
Upon hearing this, even Kiana who wasn't in the best mood burst into laughter. "What's the connection? How could the leader of Anti-Entropy come to a Valkyrie Academy of Schicksal as a teacher? Lin Ling, your imagination is way too wild, right?"
What!?
But at that moment, Welt Yang's heart was shaken.
Am I exposed!?
No... even if he was exposed, it wouldn't be this new student who figured it out, right?
As far as he knows, she just arrived at the academy yesterday and appears to have lost her memory.
Is this really a coincidence? ...Or is she not as simple as she seems?
"I'm sorry, teacher," Lin Ling apologized to Welt Yang, bowing. "I thought there wouldn't be any male teachers in a women's academy, so I misunderstood you as a bad person."
However, if someone were observing Lin Ling's face from below at this moment, they would find that she was already smiling brightly.
Because just now, she appeared to hear the sound of heaven.
[Ding~ System notification: The host successfully shocked and raised suspicion in Welt Yang. Obtained a portion of the power of the Herrscher of Reason (limited to organic matter reconstruction).]
Nice! One shot! Finally got some SSR-level rewards!
"Haha, it's okay."
Seeing Lin Ling's sincere apology, Welt Yang smiled and said it didn't matter, but then he added with a bit of seriousness.
"However, it's late. You should all go back to your dorms and rest. Our academy has the world's top medical technology and doctors, so Himeko will definitely be fine. Don't stay up late and exhaust yourselves when she wakes up."
"Yeah."
The group was then more or less gently forced back to the dorms by Teacher Welt.
However, even after returning to the dorm, Lin Ling didn't go to sleep. Instead, she quietly played with her phone under the covers. To be precise, she was researching and studying.
Although she had obtained some of the Power of Reason, this is a special ability that requires a lot of knowledge. Without sufficient understanding, it's almost as if you have nothing...
Eager to test her new ability, Lin Ling immediately began looking up information and revisiting her knowledge from her previous life. After feeling that she had learned enough, she decided to truly test this so-called "omniscient and omnipotent" power—the power of reconstruction.
"Okay, generally speaking, severe muscle soreness is caused by the accumulation of lactic acid after over-exercising, which leads to muscle damage. So if I successfully remodel my muscles with this ability, I shouldn't feel any pain, right? Well, let's try it on myself first."
Of course, Lin Ling wasn't reckless enough to start with a particularly dangerous area. She carefully selected a small muscle on her arm and started experimenting.
Fortunately, she had only overexerted herself, so the muscle damage wasn't too severe. Even a normal person could recover after a few days of rest.
After a long period of careful remodeling, Lin Ling succeeded. When she pressed on the muscle again, there was no soreness, indicating that she had used the power of the Herrscher of Reason for the first time.
"Oh, Reason really is the power with the highest potential. It's truly amazing. Unfortunately, I can only use it on organic matter... Hmm... Is this ability asking me to become a healer? But that reminds me..."
Lin Ling suddenly thought of the third Herrscher of Reason—Bronya's appearance in the post-Honkai Odyssey.
"Bronya was similar to Miss Shenzhou tablet, How did she obtain a massive twin sphere in the post-Honkai Odyssey later? Could it be that she used the Herrscher of Reason's ability to reshape and transform her body?"
Ding-ling-ling~
Just as Lin Ling was speculating about Big Bronya, her alarm clock rang.
"Huh? What's this?" Lin Ling immediately poked her head out from under the covers.
Only then did she realize that a ray of dawn sunlight had already streamed through the window onto the serene face of the immortal.
Noticing Lin Ling's surprise at the alarm, Fu Hua smiled and greeted her, "Good morning, Lin Ling. By the way, do you like sleeping with your head covered? I'd advise you not to do that—it's not good for your health."
"Oh..."
Lin Ling responded absentmindedly, though inwardly she was sighing about how fast time had passed.
"It takes that long just to repair a small muscle? Hmph... It seems this power of Reason isn't as good as the Herrscher of Death when it comes to healing. But thankfully, the power of Reason creates 'muscle memory,' so once it works, it'll be much easier to use next time."
...
"Ha~"
At the breakfast table, Lin Ling was sporting heavy dark circles under her eyes while yawned loudly.
"Lin Ling-chan didn't you sleep well last night?" Theresa asked.
"As a student, if you don't sleep well, it'll affect your studies. If you don't study hard and fail the test, I'll give you some devilish training."
"Aunt, I wasn't hiding under the blankets reading manga in the middle of the night."
"Huh?" Theresa frowned. "Do you want to know how many uses Judah has?"
She seriously suspected that this kid was hinting at her. After all, staying up late reading mangas was her own habit, wasn't it?
"No, Auntie, please don't bring out the Soviet jokes again. I wasn't talking about you." Lin Ling shook her head in disbelief. Sure enough, Teri gave herself away without even being questioned.
"Hmph, I didn't think you'd dare. But what did you call me?" Theresa was a bit confused. "Why did you call me Auntie?"
"Since Paramecium's aunt is my aunt, of course. And look." Lin Ling pointed to both of their white hair.
"We both have white hair. Maybe we really are related."
