Honkai Q&A, the Far East Demon Cave is exposed at the beginning

【"How could anyone not like bitter melon, which is so delicious?"——Honkai Impact 3: Theresa】

【"Who said that! Bitter melon is the most unpalatable thing in the world!"——Honkai Impact 3: Kiana (K423)】

【"Kiana, don’t be picky about food!"——Honkai Impact 3rd: Raiden Mei】.

Father Otto smiled.

"Haha! By the way, Joachim, Mrs. Liesel will come to pick you up tomorrow. Have you packed your luggage? Say goodbye to everyone today and don't leave any regrets.

Looking at Joachim, Otto nodded and added,"I'm going out now. I'll leave the housework to you. Theresa,"

"Okay, don't worry!"

Theresa in this world has lost her detachment and innocence. Her young face is full of the vicissitudes of life.

【"The aunt in this world looks so pitiful."——Honkai Impact 3: Kiana (K423).

As Kiana was talking, she unconsciously touched her aunt's white hair.

【"Um...wait! Kiana, what are you doing!"——Honkai Impact 3: Theresa.

Theresa slapped Kiana's naughty hand away, her face a little red, because being patted on the head actually felt very good, but the more comfortable Theresa felt, the more ashamed she felt. What kind of elder is this to feel comfortable being patted on the head by her own niece!

【"Frau Liesel? Is this Frau Liesel's full name Liesel Albert Einstein?"——Honkai Impact 3: Tesla.

Dr. Tesla said in a somewhat sly manner

【"Dr. Tesla, I don't think this is something to be concerned about!"——"Honkai Impact 3: Einstein." Einstein said seriously.

After Father Otto left, as the oldest person in the orphanage, Theresa naturally took on the position of person in charge. She served meals to the young children one by one, and then began to pick up the toys scattered on the ground.

"Theresa, is there anything I can help you with?"

Bronya and Seele volunteered to help. Theresa thought for a moment and said,"Let me think... There are still five baskets of clothes that have not been washed, the account books have not been checked, and the roof of the innermost room on the north side is leaking. We need to repair it.……"

"By the way, we don't have enough firewood. Could you please go to the opposite hillside to chop some wood? I want to prepare more wood while the weather is not too cold.

Theresa said with an embarrassed expression, and said politely:"I'm sorry, this job should be done by strong boys. But we lost Karel not long ago, Joachim... and will leave the orphanage soon.………"

Theresa's tone became increasingly low, and the atmosphere suddenly became cold. Bronya was a little at a loss for a moment.

Seele said softly,"It's okay. Let Seele and Sister Bronya go collect wood together."

Theresa calmed down after hearing that. She thanked them and said,"Thank you for your help. Please remember to come back before the sun sets. It's still a little cold at night. I probably... need to be alone for a while.……"

Seeing that Theresa was in a bad mood, Seele said hello to Theresa, then took Bronya's hand and walked out.

Two small figures dragged a shabby sled on the deserted snowfield. Bronya held Seele's hand tightly. Although the wind was biting cold, both of them were owners of the stigmata. Their physical fitness could fully withstand the environment here, but it was still difficult for the people living here.

While walking on the road, Bronya suddenly said,"It's a bit strange!"

Seele asked in surprise,"Is there something wrong? Sister Bronya."

Bronya looked around and said,"We are already some distance away from the orphanage. Putting aside the Quantum Shadow, we didn't encounter any enemies. It is obviously a deserted snowfield, but there are no Honkai beasts, not even carnivorous animals. Wait.……"

Bronya suddenly concentrated and calmed down, carefully sensing what was going on.

"Is this an illusion? I always feel like there is something in the air!"

You know, this is just a small bubble of the world, it is very unstable, it has no future, and it is on the verge of extinction at any time. In this environment, there should be countless Honkai beasts and Quantum Shadows, but the enemies here are pitifully few, as if... someone deliberately cleaned it up not long ago.

"Sister Bronya, there is a forest here.

Seele found a forest full of birch and pine trees covered with snow. Due to the heavy snow, many trees could not bear the weight and were bent.

"Seele, don't be so stubborn, let Bronya do it."

Bronya felt distressed when she saw the thin Seele reluctantly raising the small axe.

Seele shook her head:"It doesn't matter, as long as I'm in these world bubbles, I can maintain my current state. I also want to help and share some of the burden with Sister Bronya. Don't look at me like this, I'm very strong, hehe!"

After saying that, Seele swung the rusty small axe as if to show off. After a sound of breaking wind, a birch tree as thick as a bowl was chopped down by Seele's axe.

"Yes, yes, Seele is the best."

Bronya agreed and walked over to split the birch tree into pieces with Seele, stacking them neatly on the sled and preparing to load it up and drag it back to the orphanage.

"Life here is like the orphanage where we grew up. Seeing those children is like seeing ourselves in the past. Although life is hard, everyone will work together to find the direction of hard work and maintain these little happiness together. Although... we all lost our families, we found new ones in the orphanage."

Xi'er said, and with a click, another tree fell down.

"But... the children here seem a little disunited? Joachim seems to be leaving the orphanage"

"Judging from what the priest said, Joachim seems to have been adopted and can live a better life, which should be a good thing."

Bronya said

"It is a good thing for the orphanage to have children adopted. But I always feel that Joachim's reaction is a bit strange."

Seele also agreed with Bronya, but she always felt that it was a bit strange.

"There must be some hidden story behind this. Let's go back and ask Theresa. We have collected enough firewood. Let's go back."

Seeing that the sled was full, Bronya said to Seele.

""Okay, Sister Bronya!"

The two girls dragged the sled, which was much heavier than they were combined, towards the orphanage.

These firewoods should be enough for the children to use for a while.

"Theresa, we are back. These firewoods should be enough for a while.

Pulling the big sled, Bronya and Seele returned to the orphanage.

"Ah, thank you, you really helped a lot!"

Theresa was happy when she saw the firewood being slowly sledded.

It would take at least a day for the children in the orphanage to collect what Bronya and Seele had harvested. Theresa was very happy that she could let the children relax.

Theresa took the sled into the warehouse, sorted the firewood skillfully, piled it next to the fireplace to bake, and added firewood to the stove. It was obvious that she was used to doing these things.

Although her strength could not bring a good life to the children, it did not take much effort to do these chores.

"Although life is hard, as long as we have the priest and everyone around us, we will be able to get through it!"

"When did Theresa come here?"

Bronya and Cille quickly used moss to plug the cracks and holes in the walls of the house. Bronya pulled the tarpaulin and jumped onto the roof to help repair the roof.

"I don't remember my parents at all. My earliest memory is... I was lying on the priest's shoulders. He tied me to his body and took me to chop wood in the snow. It was snowing outside, but the priest was warm. When I grew up, I learned that this orphanage was established by the priest. I was not the first child to come, but I should be the one who stayed the longest. I like it here and I don't plan to leave in the future."

Theresa's tone revealed reminiscence

"What about Joachim?"

Bronya had already finished repairing the roof. It seemed that she often did this when she was in Siberia.

Seeing Theresa open up, Bronya asked her about Joachim.

"Why are you asking about him suddenly?"

"During lunch, you seemed to have some arguments. He is leaving tomorrow, and Bronya wants to know what happened?"

【"It seems that what happened to Joachim is a test for this world. What conditions does Mr. Walter want to test Bronya?"——Honkai Impact 3: Bronya】

【"The aunt in another world looks so mature, but I feel a little distressed"——Honkai Impact 3: Kiana (K423)】

【"The same is true of Kiana, who wandered around Sky City like a stray cat."——Honkai Impact 3rd: Raiden Mei】

【"I suddenly have a question. Theresa in our world is a clone, so how did Theresa in the other world come from? Her strange power obviously has the blood of the Kaslana family."——Honkai Impact 3: Infinite Tower Himeko】

【"Could it be the child of Father Otto and Karen?"——Honkai Impact 3: Fu Hua】

【"cough cough……"——Honkai Impact 3: Otto】

"It wasn't a problem between Joachim and me, it was a problem between the priest and him," Teresa explained in the video.

"What happened between the priest and him?"

Xier also asked

"……"

Theresa was silent for a moment, then she spoke

"Joachim's father was killed by a priest!"

Bronya and Seele were shocked:"How could this happen?"

【"It seems that Joachim and Otto in other worlds are the enemies who killed his father! Did he choose this world to test Bronya in order to make Bronya understand his mental journey?"——Honkai Impact 3: Tesla】

【"Maybe there are some complicated things going on, so it's better not to jump to conclusions."——Honkai Impact 3: Einstein】

"As far as I know, his father is a doctor who has been studying how to bring back Joachim's mother who died of illness. In order to achieve his goal, he touched upon forbidden knowledge.……"

Theresa tells the story between Joachim and the priest

"At first, Joachim's father experimented with mice, which later became 950 kittens and puppies. In the end, when the priest found out, he had already reached out to the wandering orphans.……"

"……how so……"

Xier covered her mouth in surprise

"So, under the circumstances of having no choice, the priest killed Joachim's father... and Joachim became an orphan."

"So, Joachim has always hated the priest?"

Theresa shook her head."If he really hated him, it would be a relief. Joachim knew the crime his father had committed, and he wanted to stop his father, but he was powerless. So, he didn't hate the priest. He came to the orphanage and took care of other children like an older brother, and he was always the first to rush to help."

"During that time, I thought he had forgotten the past."

"Then what?"

"Joachim is very smart and good at using tools. He can do well in any task given to him. Therefore, the priest planned to make him his successor. But from that day on, he became gloomy... Then I realized that he would never forget that incident."

Xier guessed:"Maybe he just doesn't want to take over the orphanage. He may have his own desired life."

Theresa sighed:"If that's the case, he will say it. But Joachim didn't. He... was actually afraid. He was afraid that one day he would stand in the same position as the priest and face the same choice as him. He was afraid that he would inflict his past pain on another child. After all, that was a shadow he could not forget."

"Soon after that, Mrs. Liesel from the neighboring town offered to adopt Joachim. Perhaps leaving here and having a new life would allow him to start over."

"Bronya thought he was escaping. But in this way, he would never be able to untie his knot."

"Many times we all understand the truth, but there are things in our hearts that are hard to let go. Joachim can't let go, but it's just as hard for you and me to let go. Having said that, I still don't want to see Joachim's gloomy look. He wasn't like this before. I want to help him. After all, we are a family living together."

Theresa suddenly turned her head to look at the sky outside the window, and said puzzledly:"……Something is wrong. It's so late, the priest should have returned!"

"I'll go out and look for it!"

Theresa nodded, found an axe in the corner, and rushed out. Bronya and Seele looked at each other and followed.

"Let's split up and look for it. You go towards the path and we go towards the hillside!"

"Okay, thank you. I'll leave the other side to you.".
