Chapter 199 I Disagree
"Seele?!"
Upon hearing Seele's name, the emotionless Bronya suddenly reached out and grabbed Sora's shoulder.
"Bronya, don't get agitated!"
How could she not be excited? If there's anyone who could make Bronya Zaychek dream of her, it would definitely be Seele Voller.
That cute, soft, and cuddly little girl, who easily evokes a protective instinct in others, is Bronya's closest person—and probably also the one who drained the Cocolia orphanage of all its resources.
"Alright, alright, calm down! Your brother Qiong will definitely bring her back!"
For some reason, even though it was her own suggestion, seeing Bronya's strong reaction made Qiong feel a little uneasy.
Gently swatting Bronya's hand away, Qiong took a deep breath, put on a flattering smile, and walked towards Welt Yang on her own.
"Uncle Yang, is there anything I can help you with lately? I'll do anything, whether it's going up in the air or down in the sea!"
If you want to enter the Sea of Quanta, there is only one known and feasible path: the Eye of the Abyss in the pre-civilization ruins of the Abyss City, which is under the control of anti-entropy.
If we calculate the time, it should be about right, right?
"Xiao Qiong, what's wrong?"
Siegfried had never seen Sora act so ingratiatingly towards others.
"What's wrong, Qiong?"
Walter has met her, but not often; Sora only helps her when she's acting crazy and needs assistance...
Offering unsolicited favors is either a sign of malice or theft.
"Do you have any thoughts on a day trip to the Sea of Quanta and a hero rescuing a damsel in distress?"
"The Sea of Quanta? You know about that?"
Old Yang was puzzled at first, then looked at Bronya meaningfully.
"Oh~"
The story of Bronya rescuing a damsel in distress in the Sea of Quanta must have been told to Sora.
Looking back now, with the Moon Throne project already underway, and no large-scale collapse events expected for a considerable period after the collapse of Manila, coupled with a period of peace for Destiny's anti-entropy (Destiny will likely be busy retrieving the second Divine Key, Thousand Realms One Rise, in London and won't have time to manage it), it's indeed a good time to do things that aren't usually suitable, such as exploring the Quantum Sea.
Walter crossed his arms and explored the Sea of Quanta, a crucial project for anti-entropy that was imperative. However, the problem was that if he continued exploring like this, he might end up as a fellow inmate with the "savior."
But not going isn't an option either. If they don't go, the timeline will shift, Cocolia will already be captured, and if the Quantum Sea exploration project is halted, who knows what will happen to the World Serpent's actions? Rather than letting the risks spiral out of control, it's better to follow history…
Should we involve Qiong? While bringing Qiong in might increase his chances of leaving Kevin there alone, is it really necessary to drag a junior into this?
"The Sea of Quanta is no good place, Qiong. Do you really want to go there?"
Walter saw the excited look in Dora's eyes.
"Uncle Yang, I want to save people, and... you know, expand the market."
Seeing Qiong's eagerness, Walter Yang fell silent. To be honest, he didn't want Qiong to get involved in Earth's affairs anymore.
"No, this is extremely risky, I can't..."
"Uncle Yang! I'm not afraid of danger! I'm the Galaxy Baseball Man, the Trail Blazers!"
Don't refuse! How am I supposed to explain this to Bronya if I refuse?
Seeing Qiong's anxious look, Walter smiled. Yes, what pioneering journey is without risk? Anyway, Qiong's strength is not bad. If something really happens in the end, the worst case scenario is that he accompanies Kevin to jail for a year and Bronya comes to bail him out.
How bad could it be?
"I don't want to leave right away; I need to prepare for a few more days."
Walter changed the subject, a pleased smile appearing on his face.
"That's great! Thank you, Uncle Yang!"
"No, I don't agree!"
Qiong excitedly tried to hug Lao Yang, but was interrupted by Siegfried's voice.
"Kid, I didn't understand what you and Walter were talking about."
Siegfried's merciless iron hand slammed down on Qiong's shoulder.
"But I will absolutely not allow you to go to any dangerous places!"

If Anna's appearance in St. Freya had any impact, the second biggest impact would definitely be the resurgence of false information about Sora.
Fake news such as "Sora betrays Mei and cheats on her" and "the two are having relationship problems and will break up" exploded on the St. Freya Academy forum, but Sora, with Bronya's help, was not worried at all: mere fake news, Bronya can handle it.
And the biggest impact...
Sora followed the two into Theresa's house—Anna had accepted Kiana's invitation to come and find out what was going on at her current residence. Theresa wasn't there, and to prevent this paramecium from revealing her own father, Sora had no choice but to come along with them.
"Kiana, why are you and Sora staying at Lady Theresa's place?"
"Is it because this gray-haired guy is considered my brother?"
"I've already told you, I have nothing to do with your family!"
"I really envy you..."
"Ok?"
Qiong looked at the visitor. Anna's face was flushed; anyone who didn't know better would think she was drunk.
Kiana, it's been seven or eight years since we last saw each other, hasn't it?
"I think so?"
The white-haired ball of fur hesitated, after all, she had no recollection of having a cousin named Anna, let alone having ever been to the Destiny Headquarters.
"Um, I haven't finished settling in yet, can I come and stay for the night?"
"no!"
Before Kiana could answer, Qiong firmly and decisively refused.
Anna is moving in? Then Siegfried won't be able to go home.
"Oh? Um, is it inconvenient? If it's inconvenient, then never mind!"
Kyō's resolute attitude left Anna somewhat at a loss.
"Why not, Gray Fur?"
Kiana looked at Sora with a puzzled expression.
"What do you say?"
Qiong's face darkened: Use your brain, you idiot! I can't just tell you directly, can I? Think about your dad!
Meanwhile, Qiong kept an eye on her surroundings to prevent Anna from seeing Siegfried's personal belongings.
However, Qiong was overthinking it. Anna, feeling disappointed by the rejection, had no interest in visiting Theresa's house.
"It's okay, I'll get it sorted out quickly."
---------------
That evening, in the principal's office.
"Then our deal is settled."
"It's a pleasure working with you, Ms. Theresa."
With Raiden Ryoma and Theresa signing the agreement, and both parties putting away the two copies of the document, the Anti-Entropy-Saint Freya agreement regarding the Moon Throne was officially finalized.
This is a pleasant agreement, at least the leader of the Anti-Entropy Alliance, Welt, is very pleased. This is the biggest change he has made since returning to the past to fight against the Honkai. The Moon Throne, which was tested ahead of schedule, has proven its value in Manila and has been recognized by Theresa. Originally, this project would have had to be postponed for another year due to the accumulation of technology and subsequent negotiations, but now that is no longer a problem.
The next step is to resolve more past crises and create a better future!
Walter was overjoyed and couldn't stop smiling. Of course, the others could also see it—although the agreement sounded like Anti-Entropy was giving the Moon Throne it had built to St. Freya for free, Old Yang was particularly happy.
"Let's leave the matter of the Moon Throne as it is. Walter, I just heard from Siegfried that that little rascal Qiong asked to go on some sea adventure with you?"
Since we're all allies, there's no need to avoid suspicion, Walter nodded readily in response.
"It is the Sea of Quanta, Headmistress Theresa."
"Oh, is there any danger?"
"There is some danger, but don't worry, I will protect him."
Walter's casual and nonchalant reply immediately enraged Theresa: "Easy for you to say! How can you send a reserve brat to a dangerous place?"
"I don't care what kind of sea it is, I disagree with this!"

I got Tibo! Hehe...
I've been grinding for materials and completely forgot to update... so I'll just post a filler chapter today (hehe).
