K423 from Dark Souls

"Hello, B-rank Valkyrie Aurora Shaniat, your level assessment has failed, please wait for the next make-up examination..."

"Look, the assessment information is out..."

Destiny Headquarters

"Haha, did you miss the exam because of a temporary urgent task? What a pity, poor Aurora."

Otto couldn't help laughing when he saw the words "make-up exam" on Aurora's materials.

"However, this Moonlight Throne has to be well controlled by little Teresa... And, let my lovely little granddaughter think that I don't know anything..."

Chapter 2 Apricot

"Okay, let's not chat for now, the main control room is here."

Aurora knocked on the thick metal wall, turned her head to look at Bronya beside her, and then pointed to the verification device hanging on the wall.

"Understood, there is no need to continue pointing at that thing, Aurora."

Bronya opened the armguard on her arm, and from the metal part covering Bronya's entire right arm, many suspended screens and keyboards, as well as a large amount of flowing data, were projected.

"Double-layer mobile password, very simple..."

Bronya tapped quickly on the floating keyboard with her left hand, quickly inputting many characters on the floating number bar, changing the internal information of the verification device.

"All right."

As soon as Bronya finished speaking, the thick metal wall suddenly cracked, revealing the hidden space inside.

It was a huge Houkai furnace, and there were four independent replenishment slots on the huge furnace body, but they were all empty now.

At this time, the fuel in the Honkai Furnace seemed to be insufficient, which only made the huge Honkai Furnace emit a faint light.

"Jizi, we have already entered the main control room, there is no one inside, and the energy of the battleship is not much..."

Aurora felt the index of the Honkai Furnace and the energy consumption, so she reported to Ji Zihui.

"There is no one? Well, then you should change the navigation of the battleship to the Far East branch first, and I will arrange manpower to receive this battleship..."

Ji Zi frowned when she heard Aurora's report. She couldn't figure out who it was that made such a battleship directly, and only activated the outermost protective measures, rushing towards Canghai City. go.

"Okay, Bronya, come and change the destination of the battleship to the Far East Branch, we are going back."

"Ah."

Bronya nodded and floated towards the main control computer in front of the Honkai Furnace, but when Bronya was about to touch the computer, several throwing knives directly attacked Bronya.

This kind of straightforward sneak attack directly made the reloaded bunny emerge from the void, and raised the super alloy shield on his arm to block them all.

"Hahahaha, who said there is no one!"

After Bronya blocked the throwing knives, a frenzied voice came from the Honkai Furnace.Aurora subconsciously looked up at the place where the sound came from, and then saw the girl with short pink hair sitting on it.

"Xing, why are you here!"

Bronya looked at Xing who was sitting on the Honkai Furnace with some vigilance, and questioned her.

"Huh? Without me driving it, how could this battleship come here just at this time?"

Xing looked at Bronya below with disdain, played with the throwing knife in her hand, and explained to Bronya casually.

"Hey, that white hair over there, what's your name?"

There was a very interested smile on Xing's face, staring straight at the pure person he saw last time when he was also in Canghai City.

"...Aurora Shaniat."

Since Xing took the initiative to ask her, Aurora would not hide her name, and answered Xing directly.

"Aurora......"

Xing stretched out her hand to cover her golden pupil on the right, only revealing one left eye to stare at Aurora.Then she opened her mouth, revealing her shark teeth, and grinned at Aurora.

"...I'm very interested in you! Come and play with me!"

Xing raised her hand and threw the throwing knives at Aurora. The high-speed flying knives stabbed at Aurora, but they were suddenly frozen in the air.

"..."

Although I don't know why this girl with short pink hair is interested in me, I can see from the conversation between Bronya and this girl that they are relatively familiar.

In other words, this girl named 'Xing' is also a member of Anti-Entropy, and should also be one of Cocolia's adopted children.

"Auntie has already cooperated with the anti-entropy, so I should be considered companions with the anti-entropy people, so let's play with her for a while..."

Aurora thought about it, then reached out and took the flying knife that was frozen in the air in front of her, and then shouted at Bronya.

"Bronya, you continue to change the destination of the battleship, Mei to help Bronya, let me fight with this... um... Xing."

As Aurora spoke, she threw the throwing knife in her hand at Xing who seemed to want to say something.Facing the flying knife attacking her at high speed, Xing raised the pointer-like sword in her hand, trying to block it.

But it was directly knocked off the Honkai Furnace by the small flying knife and landed on the metal floor.

"This guy's strength is so strong. My uncle used the "hour hand" to block the throwing knife, but she was still knocked down from above."

"but......"

The smile on Xing's face became even more exaggerated, and in her hands, she held two sword blades, one long and one short.

The shapes of the two blades are very peculiar, like the minute and hour hands of a huge clock.

"...This is how I have the desire to fight!"

Xing stomped on the ground, rushed towards Aurora, and swung two special sword blades, one long and one short, towards Aurora.

"..."

Aurora backed away slightly, dodging Xing's slash, and then kept dodging sideways, easily dodging a series of continuous long and short sword slashes by Xing.

"Damn it! Are you looking down on me? You didn't fight back at all in the face of my attack!"

The continuous attacks did not affect Aurora, which made Xing a little angry, roaring at Aurora, and stabbing at Aurora vigorously.

"Counterattack..."

Aurora stood on the spot, facing Xing's strenuous thrusts without dodging, she reached out and grabbed Xing's wrist, and then snatched the weapon from Xing's hand.

Then he hit the back of her neck with the handle of Xing's weapon with his backhand, directly causing Xing, who was still rushing forward, to lose consciousness, and then fell forward to the ground.

"..."

Aurora looked at the knife she had snatched from her hand, and then looked down at Xing who had been knocked out by her and now fell face down on the ground.

So he squatted down helplessly, put the knife he had snatched from Xing's hand beside her, then turned around and said to Bronya.

"Bronya, she was knocked out by me, after you adjust your destination, come and see her!"

After Aurora finished speaking, she turned on the communicator again and checked the information about the make-up exam sent to her by the examiner.

"The fastest way is to go to the headquarters for a make-up exam..."

"Should be able to meet my sister..."

Aurora thought for a while, then confirmed the information about the make-up exam, and agreed to go to the headquarters of Destiny to take the Valkyrie exam three days later.

"Headquarters of Destiny... Uncle Otto will come to see me at that time too... Forget it, after the time has passed, I will be thinking so much..."

Chapter 3 Apricot Awakened

"Uh...my uncle, this is..."

Xing clutched her dizzy head and got up from the hospital bed.

"Wait...Where is this?!"

After seeing the hospital bed she was in and the unfamiliar layout of the room, Xing, who was still a little dizzy, suddenly regained consciousness, turned over and got off the hospital bed.

"I remember... fighting that white hair... and then..."

Xing recalled the end of their fight, the white hair lightly snatched her knife from her hand, and then she lost the memory behind it.

"Damn white hair..."

Based on the last movement of consciousness and the unfamiliar area where he is now, it is not difficult for Xing to guess that he was defeated by that white hair in one face-to-face.

"So...my uncle is now this white-haired prisoner...?"

While Xing was thinking about the current situation, the door of the room was suddenly pushed open, and a shorter figure floated in from outside.

And the moment Xing noticed the movement at the door, she turned to face the door, then stepped on the ground behind her with her right foot, and attacked the person who pushed the door.

"Hmph! Let's catch this unlucky ghost first, and then get some information from her..."

Xing thought so, and raised her hand to attack the figure's neck, and quickly attacked the figure.

And Bronya, who was suddenly attacked by Xing, was also a little surprised, but before Xing successfully attacked her, she raised her hand and grabbed Xing's wrist.

After Bronya grabbed Xing, she twisted it skillfully, pressed Xing's hand on her own back, pushed forward, and pushed Xing to the ground.

"Xing, are you trying to sneak attack me?"

Bronya looked at Xing who was pushed to the ground by her, and said to Xing helplessly.

"...Tut, why is it you, Bronya..."

Xing heard the familiar voice from behind, curled her lips in displeasure, and complained to Bronya with a little dissatisfaction.

"...I thought it was those Valkyries here, and I was going to kill them..."

"..."

Bronya let go of Xing's hand, then stood behind Xing, staring at Xing with a questioning look.

After Xing got up from the ground, she turned to look at Bronya, and noticed her strange eyes, which made Xing inexplicably feel like she was underestimated by this mere Bronya.

"What kind of eyes do you have!"

"...nothing..."
