Chapter 119: Grand Plan to Get Back at Jiang Qiao 0.4
That day—
"—Raven, I need you to prepare some passports and plane tickets for me. With World Serpent's capabilities, this should be easy, right?"
Raven looked at the white-haired, usually silly, single-celled girl who approached her with this request, and even… called out that incredibly secretive name.
Honestly, Raven didn't have a good impression of Kiana.
As a World Serpent executive, after investigating beforehand, she knew that this girl was the experimental subject—K423—used by that Schicksal Overseer to revive the Second Herrscher.
Although she felt sorry for her fate, after a long mercenary career, Raven, although feeling some pity, would only watch coldly from the sidelines.
And in fact, they even had a grudge.
Raven, no… Natasha Cioara. In the past, Natasha lived in Siberia, an ordinary person with an ordinary, yet happy family.
And the culprit who shattered this ordinary dream was undoubtedly the Second Herrscher, Sirin, also known as the predecessor of [K423].
Her parents died because of this, and although she and her brother survived, they were ultimately separated.
Fortunately, as she grew older, her life-or-death mercenary career made Raven forget these past events.
But—
Just because she didn't pursue it didn't mean Kiana could rub it in her face!
Raven, ignoring the fact that Kiana had revealed World Serpent's name, wanted to teach her a lesson—and as expected,
Little Island Exploding Raven became the second victim of the Void authority after the Herrscher of the Void, subjected to bondage play—of course, not as brutal as what she did to that Schicksal S-rank Valkyrie, just simple binding.
"The Herrscher of the Void's power?!"
While surprised, the expressionless white-haired girl approached. Then, slowly, her ladylike demeanor melted away like ice and snow, replaced by a lively and charming air, just like the pink-haired hooligan she had seen before.
"Really~ Do you have to force me to use violence? I really hate using force~"
—The humiliating scene happened again, and the white fairy made Raven relive the feeling of being a piece of meat.
Thus, after Kiana's crying/not crying fairy identification method and Mei's somewhat fake/99% identification method, Raven created a new method to distinguish between real and fake fairies using her body—the Pink Hooligan Identification Mechanics Equation.
Although a bit confused, after instantly recognizing that the white fairy was the pink-haired hooligan Gray Serpent ordered her to unconditionally obey, Raven was stunned.
Shouldn't it be that man named Jiang Qiao? Could she be mistaken?
But [Jiang Qiao] also looked very much like this pink-haired hooligan… Well, Raven, having comprehended the new identification method, didn't dare to jump to conclusions. Before personally measuring Elysia's strength, she couldn't and wouldn't draw any conclusions.
After all—if Gray Serpent found out that she had been serving a fake, that bastard would definitely refuse to reimburse her for the expenses on that black card, right?
For the sake of her little treasury, Elysia had to be the pink-haired hooligan!
—Recalling her previous painful experience, Raven, having already found some clues, looked at this high-quality [Elysia] imitation [Kiana] and couldn't help but curl her lips.
Could such a magical thing actually happen in reality?
But forget it, it didn't matter to her. Anyway, she had already completed the task assigned to her.
Elysia, unaware of what Raven was thinking, had already started communicating with her external brain.
Elysia: Bad Jiang Qiao, how did you know that Cocolia went to New Zealand?
Although she didn't want to talk to bad Jiang Qiao at all, after all, he had tricked her so badly, but times had changed. To stop Cocolia, and to satisfy her own curiosity, Elysia chose to go against her beliefs and started her consultation.
…At worst, she would just ditch that bad guy after getting her answer!
Burning bridges was something Elysia was also very good at!
—Burning bridges and making bad Jiang Qiao sad, Revenge Plan 0.4 officially launched!
Jiang Qiao: Ah? Cocolia went to New Zealand at this time?
The girl, wearing a headband and an autumn coat, was so surprised that it caused the people around the port to whisper—after all, she was talking to herself despite seemingly having nothing in her hands.
Many passersby showed pity, thinking how could such a young and beautiful girl be… cough.
Elysia: You didn't know Cocolia went to New Zealand? Then why did you ask Raven to book tickets and passports?
Jiang Qiao, who was currently queuing, raised his eyebrows.
How should he put it?
He indeed didn't know that Cocolia had gone to New Zealand.
The reason he asked Raven to prepare them was because he knew that Cocolia *would* go to New Zealand later.
For the future salvation of the world 50,000 years later, Jiang Qiao deliberately asked Raven to do this using [Kiana]'s identity.
The Nagazora eruption had been nipped in the bud. As long as the organizations in the later era were reliable, he didn't need to be involved in evacuating the citizens.
Since that was the case, Jiang Qiao naturally focused on planning his next move.
Undoubtedly—New Zealand, the location of the Fourth Eruption, became his target.
Although he didn't know if Wendy had conducted the experiment at that time, or even if the experiment had started, since Nagazora City would inevitably be relocated, finding a new place for himself and Kiana, settling in New Zealand in advance, should be quite reasonable, right?
With no reason or need to go to Anti-Entropy or St. Freya, preparing for the next eruption was the most rational choice.
And after the failure of her Nagazora City plan, the only target Cocolia could aim for was the Gem of Desire, which appeared in the same year as the Nagazora eruption.
After he deliberately displayed Elysia's power, World Serpent would definitely find it difficult to remain dormant… To retrieve Kevin, they had to find the four gems.
"If they don't want to directly confront Schicksal, Cocolia and World Serpent can only target the Oceania branch, which is much weaker than Schicksal HQ. Only the Gem of Desire there can they obtain with minimal cost."
Leaning against the railing, looking at the gloomy sky in the distance, the pink-haired girl muttered to herself, calculating World Serpent and Cocolia's actions.
If she followed this logic, then there was only one possibility for Cocolia to go to New Zealand—the Gem of Desire experiment had already begun, or even ended.
Suddenly, [Elysia] frowned.
Wait—
He remembered asking Raven to book plane tickets, right?
