On the Bacchus Islands, Hiko, dressed in a swimsuit, was soaking in a brandy hot spring. Beside her were all sorts of fine wines. Her long red hair was tied up, and her flushed face was a picture of charming laziness, full of a thousand different charms.
My na is Murata Hiko. I used to be a teacher. Now I'm retired. After a perfect infusion of Gourt Cells, I can drink all kinds of fine wine without getting drunk easily...
"Yo! Brother Kenji! Want to co have a drink together?" Hiko turned her head, and after seeing who it was, she said in a boisterous voice.
Kenji sat on the ground and scooped up a cup of the fine wine from the hot spring.
"Hey, hey, hey! You're not thinking of drinking my bathwater, are you?" Seeing this, Hiko sobered up a little and began to tease him. Although there was nothing dirty in it, it was still wine her body had soaked in.
"Hiko-flavored brandy. Many people would want to have a taste," Kenji said, but he didn't drink it first. Instead, he raised his glass to the front. Right, my dear readers? This cup of Hiko-flavored brandy... is for you.
"Haha, how could that be? It's my bathwater, after all. Who could be so... so bold?"
Hiko's eyes widened when she saw Kenji take a sip. This is impossible! Absolutely impossible! It's the Sharingan's genjutsu!
"Anything is possible."
"...Fine. Let's just say it's possible. How are Kiana and the others doing?" Hiko changed the subject. She had probably had too much to drink.
"I don't know. But I can bring them over."
The Hyperion landed on the outer sea of the Bacchus Islands.
The mont Kiana and the others ca out onto the deck, they were hit by a rich, dizzying sll of alcohol.
"Is Auntie Hiko here?"
"After analysis, the nearby seawater contains a high concentration of alcohol."
"That Hiko... she's really beco a super-drunkard now."
Thinking of how Hiko often drank in the past, even without seeing her, they could be sure she was here.
"Hiko is on the island."
Kenji led the way, hopping and skipping on the surface of the sea.
"Is the sea surface here... the sa as normal ground?"
Curiosity shone in Kiana's clear blue eyes. Eager to try, she leaped down before i could stop her.
SPLASH!
Unsurprisingly, an accident happened. Kiana perford a Filipino fish-bombing dive, and the splash even reached the deck.
"Kiana, you idiot!" i covered her face. Can't you use your brain just a little and think?
Kiana: Brain... activating... activating... external brain?
"Such a sandal-wearing idiot," Bronya comnted with a blank expression. It wasn't the first ti she had seen such a reckless Kiana, so she wasn't surprised.
"Pfft! Pfft! Pfft!"
Kiana surfaced, spitting out several mouthfuls of seawater. It actually tasted like alcohol.
"Wormy, are you trying to swim over?" Kenji shouted from the shore. This was sothing the worm would do. With an external brain, she would absolutely not use her original one.
"Of course not! How was I supposed to know you could run on water?!"
Kiana used the authority of the Herrscher of the Void to stand in the air, as if there were an invisible staircase under her feet.
So embarrassing! Such a social death!
Even without Kiana's prior example, i and the others had no intention of trying the sa thing.
"Hisashiburi! You all look great!"
Hiko smiled as she looked at them. They were all healthy. That was enough.
"Auntie Hiko, you're drinking so much... are you okay?" Kiana asked, her mouth agape, a look of astonishnt on her fair, rosy face.
"How many tis have I told you? Don't call 'Auntie'! Am I that old?"
Hiko said irritably. With her Gourt Cells, her skin was becoming more and more firm and tender, even surpassing the peak of her youth.
"Delicious."
After taking a sip of vodka, Bronya's eyes lit up. The liquor here was truly delicious.
Theresa raised an eyebrow. "Bronya, are you an adult yet?"
"The Bronya could drink since she was very young. You don't have to worry about the Bronya," Bronya said confidently.
Born in Siberia... isn't it normal to drink a little hard liquor?
She rarely drank at St. Freya Academy, but it wasn't because she couldn't hold her liquor.
Theresa was helpless. She couldn't control her. All of them were Herrschers. St. Freya had solidified its title as the "Herrscher Academy." Her grandfather, Otto, even wanted to change the school's na to: "St. Freya Herrscher Training Base."
"Theresa, how is your fight against the Honkai going?" Kenji asked.
Otto was now single-mindedly focused on dealing with the Honkai. The effect should be good.
"Extrely well. I feel like there's almost nothing left for St. Freya to do," Theresa said, a look of helplessness on her small face. "I've only just realized that Schicksal is so aweso at fighting the Honkai."
Before, Otto had been focused on Kallen and had only dealt with the Honkai on the side. But now... he was going all out.
Otto didn't even have ti to play his favorite Kallen Fantasy. He was able to give the most correct commands every ti, and casualties were reduced to a minimum.
"He has the experience of the Second Eruption, and also the Void Archives. After Otto got serious, he's a completely different person," Kenji nodded. As expected of Otto. The God of Pure Love was starting to get serious.
"Fu Hua, is this your sister?"
Kenji pointed at the black-tiger Ah Fu. The Honkai cannot be without Little Senti, just as the West cannot be without Jerusalem. Her unruly posture seed to say:
The great Lady Herrscher of Sentience is not to be trifled with! Don't you 'not-senti' what's good for you?!
"Mm. I suppose so. She is the Herrscher of Sentience, born from my body," Fu Hua said, pushing up her glasses. To say she was a younger sister... she felt more like a mischievous daughter.
"A Herrscher born from your body, Fu Hua? Is the Herrscher of Sentience your daughter?" Hiko asked with a smile.
Little Senti said angrily, "Who's the old antique's daughter?!"
"She's my daughter!"
Fu Hua: "..."
A white light reflected off her glasses. Fu Hua clenched her fists. This Little Senti really was rebellious to the core. Forgetting about not being her daughter, now she wouldn't even be her sister. She wanted to be her mother instead?
"What a reversal of the natural order! Little Senti, you're really brave."
Kenji gave a thumbs-up. As expected of you.
"I'm super brave, okay?"
"Wait, what did you call ?"
"Call the great Lady Herrscher of Sentience! Don't be so mushy! I'm getting goosebumps!"
The Herrscher of Sentience rubbed her arms with disgust. She was not a child. Gross.
"Do you have any baijiu?"
"I do."
Little Senti wanted liquor, and Kenji gave her a bottle directly.
WHOOSH—!
Just as she was about to drink it down, a slender, well-defined hand shot through the air and took the bottle away.
"Old antique! What's wrong with you?!"
Little Senti looked up and glared at Fu Hua, shouting angrily.
Fu Hua said flatly, "Children can't drink alcohol."
"Old antique... you!"
Little Senti was panting like a bull, so angry at Fu Hua she could die!
Fu Hua was unperturbed. She was definitely not doing this because of the "reversal of the natural order" from just now. She just truly believed that children shouldn't drink alcohol.
