Honkai Impact 3rd: Catching the Herrscher of Sentience at the Start

"..." Fu Lin set down his tea, unable to laugh anymore.

Fu Shi〈Hahaha, that makes so much sense! Hahaha~〉

"From now on, we should call him Magical Girl Albe-Albe~"

Fu Lin clenched his fists, watching Fu Shi laugh so carefreely, and felt that the earlier kick he gave her was too light.

Indeed, laughter never disappears; it only shifts to someone else.

----------------------------

Alvitr, '!!!'

Alvitr's eyes sparkled as she saw Theresa transform. Staring in awe at her idol right in front of her, she stammered, "It's... it's... Teriri!"

Just then, Liliya pushed open the door and said, "Theresa, there's a white-haired older sister at the door looking for you."

Before Liliya could finish her sentence, Kiana appeared behind her, grinning excitedly, "Auntie! I'm here to grab the snack box!"

Upon entering, Kiana saw Theresa glowing brightly and Alvitr, now on her knees, starstruck with sparkling eyes.

Seeing Theresa's familiar form, Kiana grew emotional and exclaimed, "You! You're— Magical Girl Teriri!"

Before Kiana could finish her words, Theresa's face turned bright red. To be recognized like this by someone she knew was mortifying.

"Shut up! Aaaaaah!" Theresa swung her magic wand at Kiana's face, unleashing what could only be described as the legendary physical magic. Kiana spun countless times before crashing heavily to the ground, utterly incapacitated.

"Ahahahaha... Kiana, why are you here? There was a mosquito on your face just now, so I helped you swat it," Theresa said nervously, gripping her wand with both hands. On the ground, Kiana's 'corpse' twitched occasionally.

"Congrats, Theresa, on scoring your first kill," Fu Lin clapped and cheered, unhelpfully escalating the situation.

Theresa〈Ahhhh! Stop looking at me! Close your eyes right now!! This is so embarrassing!〉

Kiana〈Auntie, why am I the one getting hurt here?!〉

Bronya〈Perhaps because Kiana is a fool.〉

No sooner had Bronya said this than the door in the video was pushed open again. Bronya appeared, speaking somewhat urgently, "Principal, I think I left my game console here."

"Huh? You're..." Before Bronya could finish her sentence, light erupted from Theresa's chest, transforming into a fiery explosion that left a charred "Flat Duck" on the ground.

Wait, no—it's now a Roast Duck.

In a corner, Liliya and Alvitr clung to each other, staring at the carnage in terror.

"Ahahahaha... Bronya, why are you here?"

"There was a loose thread on your clothes just now, so I helped burn it off," Theresa replied with the same tone but a different excuse.

Bronya, now incapacitated, twitched on the floor.

"Congrats, Theresa, on scoring a double kill! Flat Duck becomes Roast Duck—crispy and delicious!"

Theresa〈Host, stop making jokes like this! I'd never hurt my students!〉

Kiana〈Exactly!〉

Bronya〈Exactly! Wait, are you calling me Flat Duck?〉

Mei〈Maybe it was just an accident. Nothing else will happen, right?〉

Mei glanced nervously at the screen, feeling like she might be next. But she quickly relaxed when someone else appeared in the video.

"Lady Theresa, the tea party is about to start." Before Rita could finish her sentence, she collapsed to the ground with a large bump on her head.

Rita〈Lady Theresa, you didn't even bother to give a reason? I'm heartbroken.〉

Theresa〈Rita, I...〉

"Dean, I brought some dumplings. Do you want to—" Before Theresa could respond, another person entered. Fu Hua, full of good intentions, pushed the door open, only to be met with a heavy blow.

[Shenzhou Tablet]Fu Hua:〈...〉

[Miss Lily]Otto〈Old friend, you too...〉

"Dean, did Kiana sneak in here to steal food again?" Mei... perished.

Kiana〈Auntie! How could you even lay a hand on Mei? That's too cruel!〉

"Dear granddaughter, would you like to join Grandpa for—" Otto... perished.

Fu Shi〈Well done! Every time I see that face, I just want to punch it!〉
