Honkai, but Behind the Scenes

If Einstein hadn't told him, he wouldn't have known. 

But Tian Shi was truly shocked by what she said.

So... we already have so many Herrschers in our family?

But wait...

"The Fourth Herrscher?" 

Tian Shi rubbed his temples. 

"Wendy? Is she still alive?"

"Don't act like you're hoping someone died." 

Einstein pulled out a box of chocolates from somewhere. 

"We originally wanted to forcefully extract the Gem from her, but the girl was lucky and regained consciousness at the last moment."

"We almost got to have a heartfelt conversation with Miss Wendy, though we would have wished the Gem was in her leg."

Einstein still made a slightly terrifying joke with an expressionless face.

"You know, Edison has a sharp tongue but a soft heart. Although she seems like a capitalist, she's more humane than anyone else in these kinds of situations."

"Aren't you afraid it's a disguise?"

"Welt personally examined her. We also ran a series of psychological tests on her."

"The psychological test results were positive. But, unfortunately, even so, we have to keep her in the room that Welt personally built for her for isolation and observation."

"That's understandable."

 Tian Shi nodded. 

At least he didn't see any problem with this series of operations.

"Then the second and third... never mind, no need to talk about those two."

Mei and Kiana...

"It seems that we in Anti-Entropy are in an even more desperate situation than those people at St. Freya?"

"Dr. Einstein thinks the same thing." 

Einstein shrugged while eating chocolate. 

"Then again, among Miss Himeko's group of students, Cocolia's only adopted daughter is not a Herrscher."

"True."

Because Welt is still alive, St. Freya has not yet had the "tragic situation" of a class full of Herrschers. Congratulations, congratulations!

"So, Sir Alliance Leader, how do you want to arrange Fu Hua... I mean, the Herrscher of Sentience?" 

Reanna asked in a low voice.

"You seem to know something, Reanna."

"I can't say I know anything. I just had a brief contact with her and got a feel for her. First and foremost, safety is very important to me." 

Reanna looked at the closed door of the "examination room."

"I don't feel any Honkai energy from her at all. She reminds me of Welt back then. But of course, now she doesn't even know she's a Herrscher, right?"

"Yes, she inherited Fu Hua's memories and emotions, and these memories and emotions wrapped around the Herrscher's consciousness that should have existed." 

Tian Shi shrugged. Somehow, this situation makes people feel powerless to complain.

"So, even though her personality has changed drastically, her attitude toward Honkai is still the same as Fu Hua's."

Isn't this also a kind of NTR?

Reanna nodded: "So, from this point of view, the Herrscher of Sentience is still very safe for humans and the world, but her stability... To be honest, I think her stability might be completely different when you're with her or not."

What Reanna said was an irrefutable fact. Planck also agreed with this, but her face was full of helplessness: "This kind of dependency, where did that child get it?"

"It's better to say it's the budding effect plus Miss Fu Hua's inherited goodwill. It seems our leader will be completely dependent on this Herrscher." 

Einstein shrugged, indicating that she was also very helpless.

"Just stay with me, after all, it's just about babysitting. I'm already used to it in every sense of the word." 

Tian Shi is quite open-minded. 

"And we can't just leave her alone, can we?"

"Yes, a certain Alliance Leader's ability to play with girls' minds is, of course, consummate."

"Hey, Ain, please don't let your 'girlish' resentment out at a time like this, okay?"

Seeing this, Planck laughed: "By the way, our leader, have you ever considered finding a teacher's wife? I think I'm very suitable."

"Professor Planck, sneaking around is forbidden here."

"I'm being realistic. I feel that I can get along quite well with that child. At least she can understand my love for you." 

Planck looked at her student, who was ruining the mood with her dissatisfaction.

The little padded cotton jacket from before has now become a black-hearted cotton...

And Tian Shi was a little speechless at this.

We get along quite well... You mean the previous time when you sat in front of Senti and asked her to modify her consciousness?

"That's a good way to get along." 

Tian Shi put his hand to his forehead. 

These scientists were too distracted when it came to non-work matters.

"While I admit, the educational results are excellent, there is some danger in that approach, both for you and for her. I don't think she has full control over her thoughts."

"But the child doesn't want to disappoint you" 

Planck looked tenderly at the closed "examination room." 

"You can see that she is a very clumsy child, clumsily trying to win your approval, just like Tesla, who was clumsy and didn't know how to express her admiration."

Is this the experience of senior educators? 

You deserve to be Professor Planck.

"Little Lieserl! If you interrupt the atmosphere I've created, teacher, I'll spank you!" 

Planck fought fiercely with her messy-haired student.

"The two doctors are really energetic..." 

Reanna looked at the scene with a wry smile.

"But according to the original plan, Dr. Einstein and I will set off for Haiyuan City tonight... Should we postpone it?"

"No need, you two go first. Fu Hua has too many acquaintances in Haiyuan City." 

Although Tian Shi was a little tempted, he finally shook his head. 

After all, there are too many unstable factors in Senti now, and a sentence like "You are not Fu Hua at all" may be enough to make her explode.

"Then the burden of appeasing the Herrscher of Sentience can only fall on you... That's right, in fact, even if we were here, we couldn't help much." 

Reanna gave a wry smile, obviously feeling a bit useless at the moment.

Not long after, a loud bang came from Einstein's room upstairs.

"I'm done--!"

Senti kicked the door open and came out with the exam paper in her hand, ignoring her family members.

"Chicken head! And Planck!" 

Senti jumped directly from the second floor. 

"Correct my exams quickly!"

"Why?" 

Einstein raised her eyebrows.

"Huh? Why?"

Senti looked at Einstein in confusion.

"Why do you have to kick the door open?" 

Einstein stared at Senti and then shifted her gaze to Tian Shi.

"?"

He kicked the door, why are you looking at me?

"Ahem, father of Lord Fu Hua, do you have anything else to say about your child's arbitrary destruction of public property?" 

Einstein asked Tian Shi in a serious tone.

"Ha--?! Chicken hair! You're telling tales! You're shameless!" 

Senti became furious upon hearing this.

"No, this is the usual procedure for teachers to contact parents." 

Einstein frowned and showed a very sad smile. 

"Gossip between students is called gossiping, while gossiping between students and teachers is called calling parents."

"You!" 

Senti was instantly furious, but she couldn't do anything to Einstein. 

After all, she had just promised not to use her consciousness modification ability recklessly, and she and Einstein were acquaintances in a sense.

"Can't I just fix it?"

Senti's words sounded quite self-deprecating. 

She then turned and looked at Tian Shi.

"Uh... Master Tian, I really didn't do it on purpose, I was just too excited at the time..."

The Herrscher of Sentience began to act pitifully again.

"I tried to open the door at first, but the broken door wouldn't let me in! I got so flustered that..."

The door can still give you trouble, right? 

Tian Shi resisted the urge to complain.

"Just own up to your mistakes and correct them. Remember to fix the door for Ain."

"Don't worry! It's just a door. Fixing it will only take a few minutes."

Seeing that Tian Shi didn't blame her, Senti immediately became alert again. 

To be honest, seeing how lively she was now, Tian Shi seriously suspected that "breaking the door without showing her face" was just this child pretending to be stupid to avoid being scolded...

Forget it, what are you thinking about?

"By the way, Planck. Have you finished grading the exams?"

Of course, the task of grading the exams was left to Planck, a professional teacher.

"I've finished grading, Fu Hua. You're lucky. You got 62 points, just above the passing line."

"Ha?"

"Yes! I told you I could do it!" Senti clapped her hands.

No, there's something wrong here, isn't there?

"Fu Hua, please stay here and don't move. I want to talk to Planck."

"Oh... oh."

Senti looked at the puppet Tian Shi pushing Planck into a corner, confused.

"Planck, are you sure this child has passed the test?" 

Tian Shi frowned and asked in a low voice: "Don't I know what she's capable of? Just because of the few books she read at the last minute?"

"Of course... not."

Planck smiled and said: "If we grade strictly, our Miss Fu Hua would only get 48 points... But this is not a formal exam, and Miss Fu Hua is so lively, so I went soft and gave her a passing grade."

Not even university professors save people as much as you do!

"I really suspect you're being controlled by that child."

In response, Planck just smiled and said nothing. 

In her opinion, it was a pleasant thing to make this young Herrscher happy with such a harmless matter. 

Isn't this what's called social etiquette?

"Yes! Sixty-two points! I can go out and play with Master Tian!"

Planck, who was about to turn around, heard Senti's shouts, and her whole body suddenly felt bitter.

"Have a date?"

"It's just hanging out. I promised her that as long as she passed, I would hang out with her for one day."

"Isn't that a date?" 

Planck's eyes were full of resentment.

You should have told me earlier! If you had told me earlier, I would have given her 59 points, so she would know how cruel a teacher is! 

Damn it! 

Originally, after Einstein and Reanna left, I should have enjoyed a romantic world for two with Tian Shi!

Tian Shi looked at Planck, indicating that this was someone's fault and had nothing to do with him.

Who knows, you might even directly increase her score from 48 points to pass!

"Master Tian, what were you two talking about just now?"

"Nothing."

"Oh..."

Seeing that her master didn't want to talk about the topic, Senti didn't ask any more questions.

"What about the previous agreement...?"

"As always, of course."

"Excellent!"

As long as this agreement remains the same, Senti doesn't care about anything else.

"Speaking of which, Fu Hua, do you want to have fun?"

"Let's go to the game room first" 

Senti said without thinking. 

"Then... we'll talk about it later?"

Obviously, in Senti's impression, the only fun thing is the game room.

"At least get a grand slam first!"

"Okay, that's no problem for me..."

Thinking that he would go out with Senti on a crazy day tomorrow, Tian Shi had a slight headache.

Well, there's actually a little bit of expectation.

"Well, since there's nothing to do here, Reanna and I won't stay." 

Einstein sighed. 

"It just so happens that Schicksal's headquarters is severely damaged. They shouldn't have time to deal with us now. You don't have to wait for the night. Take this opportunity and go directly to Haiyuan City."

"Understood, Dr. Einstein." 

Reanna nodded in understanding.

"Then the defense here will be handed over to you, my old colleague."

"Huh? Me? Don't you have those Titan troops?"

"How can the Titans catch up to your old colleague?"

"Yes, yes! Don't worry! With me here, even if Otto comes, I can make him leave with a stuffy nose!" 

Senti was very happy with Reanna's words.

But they, the onlookers, actually understood that Reanna was intentionally putting more burden on Senti's shoulders. 

When people have responsibilities, it's not easy for them to act carefree. 

If they really just have fun all day, who can stand it?

"By the way, Master Tian! Let's go out and play today! I can't wait!"

"Huh? But if we count from now..."

"It's a big deal, let's just play again tomorrow morning!" 

Senti pulled Tian Shi and was about to leave.

"Wait a moment, this thing is not suitable to take out." 

Tian Shi broke free from the puppet's hold.

However, Senti didn't care. After all, thanks to her consciousness ability, she could see Tian Shi in a ghostly state.

What might be a little awkward for others was no problem for her.

"Remember to come home at night."

Planck wanted to go with them, but their headquarters couldn't be without someone to coordinate the overall situation. 

Sometimes it's also very important to consider the situation. 

Therefore, after thinking about it for a long time, Planck could only say these few words: 

"Remember to come home at night."

I have to say, these words are quite strange to say that way. 

Suffocating, too embarrassing.

So, to get to the bottom of it, why did I have to give her a pass at that time on a whim? 

Even two points more than sixty! Shouldn't I fail the Herrscher, an enemy of humanity? 

Shouldn't she cry bitterly while holding the exam paper?

But now... Senti put the test paper on her head and pushed it back and forth like a ball.

How bitter, how bitter...!
