You wouldn't want them to be bullied, would you?

"Many older sisters?"

"No, that's not right—Rin, it should be many 'nieces'."

Yae Rin blinked. Although she didn't quite understand what Yae Sakura meant, she sensibly didn't ask any further questions and instead obediently said "Oh".

Afterwards, Yae Sakura pulled Yae Rin into the purple void torn open by Lady Sylpharia and returned to the Mist Sea Manor on the island.

Before leaving the transport ship, Angeline made sure it automatically docked on the island's beach before disappearing into the purple void.

……

Since Sirin had returned to St. Freya Academy ahead of time, Cecilia and the others already knew that Qiu Bi and the others were about to return to St. Freya Academy, so they gathered at the Mist Sea Manor to wait patiently.

"Cirin said the child's name is 'Delta'?"

"Yes, Sirin said that the child can continuously grow stronger by eating Honkai Beasts."

"The girl who devoured Honkai Beasts... I seem to remember her. My grandfather mentioned her to me a while ago."

Theresa frowned subconsciously, then asked in return, "I remember Grandpa once said that the child is prone to losing control and going berserk due to hunger. Do we really want to send that child to school?"

"It's alright! Even if you're worried about Xilin and the others, you should have complete confidence in Qiu Bi's abilities."

Cecilia covered her mouth and chuckled, her words and expressions filled with trust in Qiu Bi.

Theresa glanced at Cecilia, sighed helplessly, and said nothing more.

Before long, Lady Hilfalia returned to Mistsea Manor with Qiu Bi and the others, where they saw the women gathered in the courtyard.

The moment Cecilia saw Qiu Bi, she flashed a beautiful and captivating smile.

"Qiu Bi, welcome home."

"Ah."

Qiu Bi gently embraced Cecilia, while Cecilia looked at Shigure Kira with a half-smile.

Knowing she felt guilty, Shiyu Qiluo subconsciously looked away, not daring to look directly at Cecilia.

Yae Sakura was the same; she didn't dare to look directly at Cecilia and the other three ladies.

However, despite feeling guilty, the two girls also experienced a strange sense of excitement.

Chapter 185 Isn't this also a kind of...?

Being intimate with Qiu Bi behind Cecilia's back would undoubtedly bring great excitement to Shigure Kira and Yae Sakura.

Especially with Shigure Kira, the thrill was particularly pronounced.

After all, Cecilia used to be the person she respected and admired the most, but now she had become one of Cecilia's "sisters," which was also a kind of "closeness."

"Lady Cecilia, I...I..."

Shiyu Qiluo stammered, seemingly trying to explain her relationship with Qiu Bi, but the words just wouldn't come out.

Cecilia looked at Shigure Kira with a half-smile and said tactfully, "I already know. Kira, everyone knows that you like Qiu Bi."

"Huh? When..."

Shigure Kira suddenly froze, then abruptly became furious, "Patrick! Didn't you promise not to tell anyone?!"

Shigure Kira only ever told Patrick about her feelings for Qiu Bi, and she also asked Patrick not to tell anyone else.

Now everyone knows about this, and it's clear that Patrick didn't keep the secret and told others.

Patrick knew he was in the wrong and let Shiyu Kira scold him.

As the one spreading the news, Shubu kept her eyes and nose to herself, not daring to make any move for fear of attracting Shigure Kira's attention.

However, Salome put down her teacup at this moment and took the initiative to tell Shub what she had done before.

"Kira, this is not Patrick's responsibility. The main person who spread this message is actually Shub."

"Hey! Salome, you..."

Before Shub could finish speaking, she suddenly choked up and couldn't make a sound.

Shiyu Qiluo's musical note-shaped blade was already at her neck, its edge emitting a cold, sharp glint, making her feel like she was sitting on pins and needles.

"Qiluo, Qiluo, you...you must let me explain..."

"Oh? My dear Shub, what are you trying to say?"

Shi Yu Qiluo narrowed her eyes, a strange smile curving her lips, making her look rather odd.

Shub swallowed hard, speechless for a moment, unsure of what to say.

Then, she chuckled and advised, "Qiluo, don't be impulsive..."

Shigure Kira's Note Blade is no ordinary weapon; it is a weapon that utilizes Honkai energy. Even if it is not as powerful as the "Throne of Gods" series weapons, it can easily tear apart the Valkyrie's skin.

“Shub, I’m calm right now, so… why are you afraid?”

"this and that……"

Shub was speechless, unsure how to explain, so she could only look to Qiu Bi and Cecilia for help.

Seeing this, Cecilia chuckled and then advised, "Alright! Kira, it's not a big deal—come here quickly, I'm a little curious about what happened between you and Qiu Bi."

"Ah? This..."

Shigure Kira obediently put away the musical note blade, then became very shy and embarrassed.

You can't exactly say that you originally planned to "ambush" Qiu Bi, but ended up catching Yae Sakura and Qiu Bi having a secret rendezvous at night, and that you ended up having a negative relationship with Xilin by some twist of fate, right?

Cecilia saw through Shigure Kira's thoughts and couldn't help but cover her mouth and chuckle. At the same time, she comforted her, "Kira, you don't need to feel embarrassed. Maybe what you did was something that other people have done before."

"Eh?"

Shi Yu Qi Luo looked at Cecilia blankly. Wasn't Cecilia and Qiu Bi getting married normally?

Could it be that Cecilia had tried to "night raid" Qiu Bi before getting married?

Shigure Kira was puzzled, but eventually, with Cecilia's comfort, she began to recount what had happened between her and Qiu Bi.

Yae Sakura had been introducing the women to Yae Rin since earlier, but when she heard Shigure Kira begin to speak, she lowered her head and remained silent.

Angeline sat down next to the group, took a cup of tea from Gexiuzi, and then listened quietly to Shiyu Qiluo's story.

Ji Lin, leading his steed and accompanied by the mist maid, headed towards the stables of the Mist Sea Manor.

Bella stood behind Qiu Bi and took the initiative to massage Qiu Bi's shoulders. Her beautiful eyes were fixed on Qiu Bi, as if everything else had disappeared and only that one thing remained.

Cecilia smiled silently, pinched Qiu Bi's soft waist, and twisted it around.

Qiu Bi gasped, forcing himself not to make a sound.

"Qiu Bi, what's wrong?"

Bella noticed Qiu Bi's unusual behavior and couldn't help but ask him a question.

Qiu Bi feigned composure and replied, "N-nothing..."

At the same time, when Sophia heard that Sirin had facilitated the relationship between Qiu Bi and Shi Yu Qi Luo, she helplessly rubbed her forehead.

“That girl, Celine… I’ll scold her later.”

"Indeed, Celine is getting more and more mischievous."

Cecilia nodded in agreement, then smiled and asked in return, "Right? Sirin, who's been eavesdropping."

sound off.

A purple hole quietly appeared, and Sirin emerged from it with a smirk, then threw herself into Sophia's arms, nuzzling against Sophia's chest affectionately, as if she were being affectionate.

Sophia playfully tapped Sirin on the head, causing Sirin to wince in pain.

"No need to pretend, the force I used could not possibly hurt you."

"But... even though Mom didn't use much force, it felt like she was hitting Celine's heart... it really hurt!"

Before she finished speaking, Sirin still pretended to be pitiful, trying to dispel Sophia's previous idea.

However, Sofia pretended not to see Celine's pitiful appearance and hugged Celine to prevent her from turning to Cecilia for comfort.

After her attempts failed, Celine could only sit listlessly in Sophia's lap.

Although he has the body of an adult, his personality is still like that of a child.

Cecilia smiled gently, took a sip of tea, and then asked, "So... Qiu Bi, what should we do with that girl from the isolated island?"

"We'll arrange Delta's enrollment first these next few days, and then Angeline and I will deal with Gana's matter in a few days."

"Speaking of this—Qiu Bi, you haven't forgotten that you're a teacher at the infirmary, have you?"

"Of course I haven't forgotten. I've just been busy lately, so I haven't been to the infirmary."

Qiu Bi gave Theresa an apologetic smile, then suggested, "Let Bella take over my work for now."

Bella possesses the "Maid's Self-Cultivation (Mastery)" bestowed upon her by Qiu Bi, which includes some medical knowledge, enough for Bella to treat common injuries and illnesses.

Hearing this, Theresa sighed helplessly: "You should take care of your own business as soon as possible. After all, you are the teacher in the infirmary, and you can't keep relying on Bella for help."

"I will. After dealing with Janna's matter, I shouldn't have anything else to deal with."

Chapter 186 Rosalia's Skipping Class

The next day.

Delta's entrance exam has officially begun.

As Delta's only acquaintance, Qiu Bi was present to watch the performance and witnessed Delta's outstanding performance.

Compared to her usual clumsy appearance as she devours Honkai Beast corpses, Delta appears quite indifferent in battle, somewhat resembling Angeline.

In fact, Delta doesn't even need to use many abilities; her "Claw Form" alone is enough to sweep through the entrance exam.

This situation made Cecilia reflect on whether the entrance exam was too easy.

Whether it was her daughters or Delta, they all seemed very relaxed when facing the entrance exam, as if they were strolling leisurely, showing no signs of difficulty whatsoever.

Delta pushed her way through, slowly but steadily making her way to the finish line.

During this time, even though Qiu Bi had warned her beforehand that these were not real Honkai Beasts, Delta still couldn't control herself and chose to try to bite the corpses of the Honkai Beasts.
