World Modulation Mode in Honkai

Chapter 43: Chapter 43: Ye Feng → Kiana | Door Gap | Mei



The door was tightly shut, and the bedroom was silent.

Kiana had one of her beautiful white silk legs resting on the vanity, staring blankly at the door, looking confused.

Who was that?

Another person appeared!

It seemed like she was quite familiar with Ye Feng?

Wait a minute, what did Ye Feng mean by "together"?

No way, this dog Ye Feng wants a double [beep]?!

Does he think I'm just anyone?

How could I be open with a stranger unless it's Mei—no, no, no!

Kiana was startled by the sudden thought that popped into her head.

Even if it were fine for her, Mei must not be ruined by that bastard Ye Feng!

"Aren't you going to explain?" Kiana said, lowering her eyes and squeezing out a face of disdain.

This expression seemed to boost Ye Feng's speed.

"Let's talk about it later; first, let me check whether your B... grade Valkyrie is the real deal."

At this, Ye Feng also looked confused.

"?"

Kiana's pupils widened, bewildered by what this scoundrel was saying!!

Don't taint the sacred ground I aspire to!

Kiana felt she could no longer look directly at the term "B-grade Valkyrie."

That jerk is toxic!

And what does he mean by "real deal"? I'll spray you with a mouthful of salt soda!

"I work hard to become a Valkyrie, not to give you a... umm... enhance... um~~!"

....

"Sure enough, here it comes again."

Mei looked at the figure that seemed to be staring like an NPC, confirming that this was Ye Feng's world.

"It seems that once you enter for the first time, there will be a second time. Speaking of which, does it mean you can come over just by sleeping?"

"But speaking of which, once the consciousness leaves the body, the physical body in the real world naturally looks like it's fallen into a deep sleep."

Mei arrived at the school rooftop, a place Ye Feng hadn't taken her to before.

From the high vantage point, it looked just like the St. Freya Academy in reality, but if she wanted to leave the campus, a message would appear saying, "The area ahead will be explored later."

"Where is Kiana? And Ye Feng hasn't appeared either."

Mei looked around the rooftop.

Suddenly, a shadow enveloped her.

To be precise, it felt like "the world has turned off the lights," and she was surrounded by thick darkness.

A deep Roman column corridor, only vaguely visible in the dark, spread out before her.

"Where is this...?"

"Come before me, Herrscher of Thunder."

A sympathetic and deep voice came from the darkest corner. Mei nervously glanced around.

"—!!?"

"You look like a frightened little animal."

"Who?"

"The Herrscher of Corruption can already reach your level? Little Feng really isn't just comforting me."

"Who are you? Little Feng? Is Ye Feng your relationship with him?"

"Come here, and I will answer your questions one by one."

Then, a fair hand reached out from the darkness, without making a sound.

It was a pair of hands that looked even more beautiful when they emerged from the pristine sleeves—but the moment Mei saw those hands, she felt they were manipulating something in the dark.

Then, a candlelight flickered in the darkness.

The light illuminated the room.

It was a retro-decorated prayer room.

Stained glass, white candles, and a nun draped in a headscarf sat gracefully across from her at the table.

"Hello, Herrscher of Thunder."

The slow and deep magnetic voice gave a drowsy feeling.

However, at this moment, Mei was emotionally stirred.

"Don't call me that. I have a name, it's Raiden Mei."

"Ah, my apologies. I got too excited and neglected your feelings; please forgive me. Mei... what a gentle name. I am Apophis, and it's nice to meet you."

"Hello, Miss Apophis..."

Mei tried hard to avoid Apophis's gaze, looking around.

"Did you pull me in here?"

"Yes. I heard from Little Feng this morning that you came in yesterday; I actually wanted to meet you."

"Are you a magic user from another world too?"

"No, I'm just like you. Just the ashes of the last era."

Ashes of the last era?

That's too cryptic; I don't understand.

"Do you have any purpose in bringing me here?"

"Simply put, I wanted to see you."

"We shouldn't be familiar."

"[Please] believe me. Just seeing your existence like this brings me immense comfort."

"..."

Mei indeed felt no malice from Apophis, but her gaze made her feel uneasy.

Mei sensed that Apophis wasn't really looking at her.

Instead, it felt like she was confirming something through her.

Mei disliked this feeling; she only wanted to leave this prayer room and asked:

"Do you know where Ye Feng is?"

"Ah, are you talking about Little Feng?"

Apophis smiled.

The nun's bright and beautiful smile made even Mei, a fellow woman, feel a flutter in her heart.

"Little Feng is at the Valkyrie dormitory."

"What is he doing at the Valkyrie dormitory?"

"You'll find out when you go there."

...

"Does it feel like Apophis's demeanor changed when mentioning Ye Feng? Whatever, I'm out."

Mei quickly walked towards the Valkyrie dormitory.

Just as she reached the door, she heard strange crashing sounds from inside.

Don't misunderstand; it was just the sound of items falling to the ground.

"Ye Feng?"

Mei stood outside the door, tentatively calling.

But there was no response; the sound of things falling only grew louder.

It seemed even the books on the shelf had fallen.

"?"

Strange, what's going on?

"I'm coming in."

Mei put her hand on the doorknob but couldn't turn it; the door was locked from the inside.

"Ye Feng, are you in there?"

"Umm~~"

The response was a muffled sound suppressed to the extreme.

Mei's pupils suddenly constricted.

"Kiana!?"

Mei held her breath, straining to listen, but the room fell silent again.

Mei became anxious. "Kiana, open the door! I know you're in there. If you don't open the door, I'm coming in!"

Click.

The sound of the door unlocking echoed; the door slightly turned on its hinge, revealing a small gap.

Kiana, drenched in sweat, leaned out with her upper body, her hand resting on the door, blocking the view of what was happening behind her.

She seemed to be holding up something, and the hair behind her was undulating like waves.

"...Mei... what are you doing here?"

"Kiana? What are you doing?"

"...squat training."

"?"

Mei instantly noticed something was off with Kiana. She pushed the door open forcefully and stepped inside.

However... in the messy room, there was really only Kiana.

Mei breathed a sigh of relief.

She thought... she thought...

That her thoughts had become too unhealthy.

Mei looked around again, then her gaze fell on Kiana. No, why was she still doing her squat training?
