They Call Me Daddy (Honkai Star Rail)

"By the way, where is Bronya?"

Wende sighed, seeing that one person was missing. He looked at the little March, who was still sad and sawing black bread with some doubts.

"We saw her today fighting the fragmentum, there was a girl named Seele by her side too. Thanks to the two of them, our jobs got a lot easier."

March 7th was happy, but when she looked at the rock-hard black bread on the table, her expression immediately changed to disgust.

"I see."

Wende nodded and then stopped talking.

"You seem off today, Wende."

Stelle looked at Wende, who felt different than usual, and thought silently in her heart.

"Hmm? What's the matter?"

As if noticing her gaze, Wende put down his deformed knife and fork , as well as the black bread in his hand, looking at her.

"It feels like you have something on your mind but you won’t say anything."

Stelle said very bluntly.

"Is there something on your mind?”

As Wende shook his head with a wry smile, Stelle felt helpless.

"It's okay. I'm just a little shaken up. I've been having some nightmares recently."

"Nightmares?"

When Dan Heng heard about this, he couldn't help raising his eyebrows and looking at Wende empathetically.

"Are you also haunted by nightmares?"

Wende’s eyes shook at Dan Heng’s words.

After eating the strange food, Wende went back to his room.

Looking at himself in the mirror, Wende shook his head and looked at the mirror again. The person in the mirror was looking back at him.

Two pairs of purple eyes stared at each other, and then Wende closed his eyes and laid on his bed.

"Forget it, I don't want to deal with this right now."

If the system really forced him to accept these memories that did not belong to him, the only choice he has is to accept it, right?

That's right,, it wouldn’t be impossible for him to live a new life in this universe.

Wende comforted himself with these thoughts, covered himself with a thin blanket, and fell asleep.

In Qlipoth Fortress

"Supreme Guardian... Supreme Guardian!"

As if hearing someone calling in her ear, Cocolia looked at Serval in front of her blankly.

"Hmm? What’s up?"

Looking at Cocolia's blank appearance, "Serval" smiled and said.

"Serval..."

Cocolia muttered under her breath. The guitar in her hand turned into a lance at some point. The smiling "Serval" in front of her suddenly had a bloody appearance, and the lance in her hand... was piercing the chest of "Serval".

"Coco...lia"

"Serval" raised her blood-stained hand and reached out to Cocolia.

"No...no...I'm..."

Cocolia let go of the lance in her hand and looked at them with disbelief.

"I... how can I... how..."

Falling on the ground, with her hands on her head, Cocolia's body kept shaking.

"Cocolia... Cocolia, we promise you… there will be no more pain... no more cold... no more sacrifice…”

"..."

Cocolia's trembling body suddenly stopped, and her purple eyes gradually became blank. As a trace of golden light flashed in her pupils, and then disappeared.

Abundance

Affiliation: Astral Express

First encounter: 2023-4-26

Character description: A young man who was rescued by the Astral Express crew due to an accident during space travel.

He seems to be a skilled doctor. He has excellent acupuncture skills and cooking skills.

[Dialogue]

“Hello, I'm Wende, the medical officer on the express and... I handle logistics? When did Pom-Pom give me this position anyways?”

“Hello, if you feel uncomfortable, just say it, I’m always here to help.”

“Remember to go to bed early.”

“I... I'm a doctor who likes to cook.”

“It was the express that saved me, otherwise I would have become a dead body floating in space.”

“Is it a hobby to give a needle to others?”

“I've been having nightmares recently... I always see an old man in my dreams…”

“Do you know acupuncture has uses beyond just relieving muscle pain? It helps with illnesses and stress management to an extent too…”

“Himeko’s coffee... It certainly is “unique” to put it lightly”

“March, she’s a very lively child, she likes to pull me to take some landscape photos when there’s nothing to do.”

“Dan Heng said he felt something familiar when he met me, but we don’t know why…”

“Himeko taught me a lot when I first got on the express, and I am very grateful to her.”

“Mr. Yang, at first glance, he is a calm person. He seems to have a special fondness for the egg fried rice I made in my hometown?”

“The conductor has been learning the best proportion of various drinks recently, but the drinks I make are all casual…”

……….

In the Gothe Hotel

The next day, Wende got up early.

Looking at himself in the mirror, Wende smiled helplessly.

The person in the mirror was significantly less pale, and the eye bags originally formed by excessive blood loss and staying up late had subsided.

"I didn’t expect Dan Heng to help me out with my nightmares."

After a simple wash, he put on his clothes, opened the door, and walked out of the hotel. Everyone had been waiting for him for a long time.

"Good morning! You look better today."

March waved to Wende and said hello.

"Miss March! Is this the doctor you were talking about? So tall... Isn't he a bad guy?"

The children beside March 7th looked at the tall and imposing figure of Wende with some fear and hid behind March 7th.

"Don't worry, Wende is a very nice person!"

March touched the child's head and spoke comfortingly.

"So...what's the situation?"

Wende looked at Dan Heng and Stelle beside him inexplicably.

"It's nothing. March was playing hide-and-seek with these children just now. You should get used to this."

Dan Heng looked at March with a flat expression. Obviously, this is not the first time this has happened.

"Oh, I see."

Wende nodded clearly.
