NOVEL NEXT Chapter 103: Chapter 100: Welt Young... Would you like to have noodles together?
No one knew what Kiana had done or what Theresa had experienced.
But later, when Theresa woke up and saw her outfit, she immediately turned red with shame. Her roar echoed throughout St. Freya Academy:
"Ahhh! Who did this?!" The commotion attracted countless Valkyries, who cautiously approached Theresa's office, only to be turned away at the door. The incident eventually became an urban legend at St. Freya Academy.
Meanwhile, the culprit was...
"Achoo! Mei, I want fried chicken," Kiana said as she rubbed her nose, then hugged Mei and acted spoiled.
--------------------
After receiving the potion, Fu Hua hurried back to her dorm. After confirming there were no issues upon inspecting the potion's information, she drank it in one gulp.
The refreshing sensation from before reappeared, but this time it dissipated even faster. It vanished completely before Fu Hua could even moan.
"Huh? Why has it only recovered less than 10% this time?"
Fu Hua scratched her head, complaining angrily. Suddenly, the description screen reappeared, and the text in the bottom right corner gradually magnified tenfold until it became barely legible.
It read "Effectiveness greatly reduced on second use."
Furious, Fu Hua got into position and shouted "Inch Force? No I'll break open the sky today!"
With a loud crash, the wall of Fu Hua's dorm collapsed, leaving her standing in the wind, utterly disheveled.
...
While Fu Hua was "wreaking havoc" in St. Freya, far away at the headquarters of Schicksal, Otto was looking eagerly at the Homu Box in his hands, muttering, "Just seven more revival stones, and Kallen can be brought back to life."
"Wait for me, Kallen!"
He then opened the Homu Box. As the golden light faded, Otto slowly took out several magazines. The covers read, "Kallen Photo Collection"—even more volumes than what Yae Sakura had.
"Huh? Not revival stones... cough cough! Barely acceptable." Otto raised the magazines incredulously, his eyes shimmering with peculiar light.
Drawn by Kallen's alluring covers, Otto stood up, heading to his secret room. With great anticipation, he opened the first page.
The image showed Kallen in her former saintess outfit, joyfully embracing Yae Sakura, who was wearing a witch's dress.
"...This...must be an illusion!" Otto slapped his soulium face and turned to the next page.
The same Kallen and Yae Sakura appeared, but now Yae Sakura was princess-carrying Kallen. Their outfits had changed from saintess and witch costumes to wedding dresses.
Seeing this, Otto quickly flipped through the rest of the photo collection and the other magazines. Without exception, every picture featured Kallen and Yae Sakura together!
"Pffft!" Otto spat out a mouthful of blood and angrily threw the magazines to the ground. Just as he was about to stomp on them, he hesitated at the sight of Kallen's cover.
Silently, he bent down, picked up the magazines, and took scissors from a drawer. Muttering crazily to himself...
"If I just cut out this annoying fox...that'll do...yes, that's it! Hahaha!"
"Or maybe...replace this vixen's head with my own? What a genius idea!"
Meanwhile, Yae Sakura held her magazine. "Ah-choo! Kallen is so beautiful."
...
Similarly, over at Anti-Entropy, Welt had just drawn the "Analytical Construct" that once belonged to the first Herrscher of Reason, Welt Joyce, from the Homu Box.
Having gained the true power of the Herrscher of Reason, Welt finally shed the burden imposed by the former Herrscher core. Looking at his hands in disbelief, he said "So this is the true authority wielded by Welt Joyce? Even such a reward can be granted..."
Raising his hand, Welt conjured a battleship equipped with the Moonlight Throne and said, "With this power, I should be able to stop Kevin in the Sea of Quanta."
"Einstein, Tesla, I'll leave Anti-Entropy to you."
After speaking, Welt prepared to set off alone for Eye of the Deep, intending to enter the Sea of Quanta from there to stop Kevin's emergence.
Tesla, watching Welt's retreating figure, roared, "Welt! Be careful! I'll wait for your return!"
"I will."
...
In the depths of the Sea of Quanta, Kevin silently stared at the Homu Box in his hands. After a long time, he finally decided to open it, unaware that someone was on their way, ready to sacrifice themselves.
"This...is instant noodles?"
Kevin stared at the cup of instant noodles inside the box and asked in confusion. The description screen also appeared
[ "Noodles of Nostalgia: Flavor of Freshness—A legendary cup of endless noodles. Imagine the flavor you desire, and it will materialize!"
"Young man, come enjoy a bowl of noodles!" ]
Kevin picked up the noodle cup and calmly said, "...Why not."
...
Some time later...
When the weary Welt arrived, he saw Kevin squatting and eating noodles. Doubt crept into his mind—was he in the wrong place?
Kevin, noticing Welt's presence, silently raised his head, lifted the noodle cup, and asked "Herrscher of Reason, Welt Yang...care to join me for some noodles?"
