Chapter 2 - Chapter 2: Kiana's Wit

"I choose D."

The answer came out of her mouth.

A moment of dead silence followed.

Kiana looked at the screen in front of her nervously, praying that she could guess the answer correctly.

The result did not disappoint Kiana's expectations; the answer representing D showed a green light, and her throbbing heart soared with the [correct answer].

"Huh," Kiana breathed a sigh of relief, patted her plump chest, and said with a slightly proud look, "What? This lady is quite smart!"

"Okay, this lady has answered the question correctly," she urged with a little insistence. "Give me the reward quickly; don't refuse to pay!"

[Not over yet.]

The control consciousness said so and then released the next question:

[The Third Honkai Eruption of this era occurred in Nagazora City. Among the following options, who is the third Herrscher who caused the Third Eruption in Nagazora City?]

[A: Raiden Mei]

[B: Kiana Kaslana]

[C: Bronya Zaychik]

[D: Wendy]

"Huh?!" After reading this question, Kiana widened her eyes in surprise.

The third Eruption occurred in Nagazora City?

Isn't she in Nagazora City now?!

"What's going on? I didn't see any big Honkai outbreaks."

Kiana was a little surprised.

Although the Honkai Beasts in this city are indeed a bit frequent, they are far from the big Honkai that her stinky dad talked about.

[For you, this is what is going to happen.]

The control consciousness gave a very calm answer.

[As I said before, this space is independent from time and fate. The questions given are naturally the same.]

"What is going to happen..."

Kiana murmured, "In other words, in the near future, the Third Eruption will break out in this Nagazora City? No, absolutely not!"

She clenched her palms, a little angry in her brows.

Although Kiana did not receive any formal education, she still learned a lot about the Honkai from her terrible father.

If Honkai breaks out in such a densely populated metropolis, then, at that time, this city will definitely turn into a living hell, right?

"We must stop this Honkai." Kiana muttered to herself, her words full of determination.

Carrying the name of Kaslana, when facing such a thing that will endanger the safety of the people, they don't even have to think about how to choose. The Kaslana blood flowing in their veins will make the choice for them.

[So, what are you going to do?]

The control consciousness asked this question about her determination.

Instantly, Kiana was speechless.

What could I do...

Yes, what should I do...

How can she prevent this tragedy from happening?

Run around like a headless fly?

Or continue to clean up the born Honkai Beasts as usual?

"What should I do..."

Kiana murmured absentmindedly.

Then, she thought of something.

She raised her head again and looked at the content on the screen.

"The Third Herrscher that caused the third Honkai Eruption?"

Kiana keenly caught the key words. She thought thoughtfully, "If we find this person, then there must be a way."

[Finally realized it?]

[Although the main reason for the outbreak of the Third Eruption is not the body of the third Herrscher.]

[But if you find her, you may indeed save a lot of effort.]

[So, what to do next is very clear, right?]

"Of course!" Kiana nodded affirmatively.

She looked at the answers to this question very seriously, afraid of missing a word.

Kiana hates test papers and test questions.

However, if it is to protect the people, then no matter how difficult or annoying it is, she must do it.

"Answer A: Raiden... Mei."

Seeing this name, Kiana frowned and shook her head vigorously.

"Impossible! Mei-senpai can never be the body of the third Herrscher!"

Recalling Mei's tenderness and kindness towards her, Kiana directly swept the possibility that Mei-senpai would be the third Herrscher's body into the trash can.

"Answer B..." Kiana looked at her name in answer B and was speechless.

You don't even need to look at it; it must be wrong.

She is Kaslana, a warrior who faces the Honkai.

How could she be the third Herrscher's body?

Directly exclude answers A and B.

Kiana looked at the remaining two answers:

[Answer C: Bronya Zaychik]

[Answer D: Wendy]

"Two strange names." Kiana scratched the back of her head, feeling a headache.

So she hated test questions.

"If I answer wrong, can I see the correct answer?"

Kiana asked tentatively.

This question is related to who the third Herrscher's body is.

Only by finding the third Herrscher's body can she prevent the Honkai from happening.

If the answer cannot be displayed, then she can't just rely on guessing like the previous question.

She must be careful.

[Yes.]

Kiana breathed a sigh of relief.

It turns out that you can know the answer even if you don't answer correctly.

That's easy.

Questions? Just answer casually.

Anyway, there seems to be no punishment for answering incorrectly.

As for only answering incorrectly but receiving no reward?

Kiana thought that it was up to fate.

If you can guess correctly, great; if you can't guess correctly, forget it.

"I choose D!"

Kiana made her choice.

As the saying goes, choose the shortest of three long names and one short.

Excluding option A and option B, the shortest name is only option D, which is Wendy.

Anyway, the Herrscher's body is between these two people, so it might be right if she guesses like the previous question.

Unfortunately, Kiana's luck on this question is not as reliable as the previous one.

So...

[Wrong answer.]

A red cover obscured option D, chosen by Kiana.

"Damn, I didn't guess it right!"

Kiana muttered unhappily.

If possible, she would of course hope that she could answer correctly.

After all, rewards are something that almost no one dislikes, right?

But the answer was wrong, so she answered incorrectly.

Kiana was now more concerned about the answer to this question.

Who is the third Herrscher's body?!

She already had an idea about this.

Since Wendy in option D is wrong, then the Herrscher's body must be Bronya Zaychik in option C!

Anyway, she had never heard of these two people's names, so she would just assign the title of the Herrscher's body to these two people she didn't know.

Okay, it's decided.

After she gets out, she will find this person named Bronya!

Kiana looked at the screen, intending to give her accurate reasoning a perfect ending.

However, the moment she saw the answer on the screen, she was stunned as if she had been struck by lightning.

"How... is it possible!?"

[Correct answer: Raiden Mei.]

"Why is it Mei-senpai? It's impossible, right? It must be wrong!"

"How can such a gentle Mei-senpai be the third Herrscher's body?!"

With a look of disbelief, Kiana trembled all over, her eyes full of doubt.

"You must have made a mistake; you must have made a mistake, right?"

[The answer is correct.]

[The Third Herrscher is Raiden Mei.]

The control consciousness used cold reality to completely bring Kiana's luck to the bottom.
