Capítulo 16: Chapter 16: Kneeling Punishment
Under the moonlight, the Valkyrie dormitory was immersed in a serene tranquility.
Bronya was hiding under the covers, deeply focused on playing a game, her face illuminated by the cold light of the screen.
After finally achieving a perfect score, Bronya cautiously peeked out. If Mei were to catch her at this moment, it would be quite troublesome.
With exams coming up this Friday, which would affect the evaluation of the Valkyries' ranks, Bronya felt confident but still noticed that Mei, like an older sister, was worrying about everyone.
Thinking of Mei, Bronya couldn't help but recall her time in the orphanage. Back then, she was also the "older sister."
A fleeting image of a sea-blue silhouette crossed her mind, and Bronya put down her game console with a heavy heart.
To save her dear friend trapped in the Sea of Quanta, Bronya had decided to become an idol... no, to stay hidden beside Mei.
But after spending these days together, Bronya no longer had ulterior motives towards Mei; she genuinely considered her an important companion.
Moreover, after experiencing the collapse of Nagazora City, Bronya found it hard to trust Cocolia anymore. She had received the mission to "retrieve Raiden Mei," but she hadn't expected Cocolia to go so far.
So, during the mission, Bronya changed her mind on the spot. She decided not to be a heartless robot and instead protect Raiden Mei, going against the "retrieval" mission.
She later decided to leave Anti-Entropy and join the Saint Freya Academy under Schicksal. However, that sea-blue silhouette remained an enduring pain for Bronya.
"Seele..."
Bronya murmured softly, only loud enough for herself to hear.
She turned her head to look at the moonlight outside the window.
The moon, wherever it is, always resonates with people's feelings of longing.
But, isn't there no moon in the Sea of Quanta?
Bronya wasn't sure, but her attention was quickly drawn to Kiana.
Kiana lay sprawled across her bed, her mouth slightly drooling. Her sleeping posture was quite undignified.
"Sleeping so soundly, is this girl really planning to take the exam seriously? Hmm, Kiana's face looks a bit strange; is she running a fever?"
Bronya got up and went to Kiana's bedside, placing her hand on her forehead.
"1.2 degrees higher than normal body temperature. It seems... well, not quite, but vital signs are normal, just a usual fever."
Fever doesn't only occur due to a cold; emotional fluctuations or intense exercise can also cause body heat, which are normal phenomena.
Pretending to use a body scanner, Bronya withdrew her hand.
"This girl, even sleeping is so 'noisy'."
However, at this moment, Kiana was not noisy but rather very quiet.
Kiana was kneeling with her knees together, her smooth knees on the ground, her hands clasped on her thighs in a sitting posture, then her hands turned inward, touching the ground, her body bent forward until her forehead touched the floor.
The girl maintained this posture motionlessly, her hair cascading like silk from her beautiful back, revealing a graceful spine.
—Damn it, she changed to a high ponytail before kneeling!
Beside Kiana were neatly folded clothes: shirt, pants, underwear, socks, all organized.
Ye Feng looked down from above, holding a test paper, and observed Kiana in her kneeling posture, clicking his tongue, "It doesn't make sense. Why did you get so many wrong? Were you doing it on purpose?"
Kiana's forehead was pressed to the ground, wanting to argue but unable to find a way to start.
That wasn't the point.
The point was, after taking off the last pair of socks, it would automatically trigger the "kneeling apology."
Kiana had deeply understood what Ye Feng meant by "this body is mine."
No matter what terrible methods this guy thought of to manipulate this body, Kiana couldn't resist.
Just like now, she couldn't move at all and had to maintain the kneeling position.
Although she had made many mistakes, Kiana still refused to admit defeat.
The armor was removed voluntarily, but the kneeling was forced.
Little bug had always disliked being forced.
"Wasn't it only about removing clothes? What's with this kneeling?"
Only?
Ye Feng wore a playful smile.
"That's the pressure. If the punishment was known to you, and you were prepared mentally, what's the point? The unknown punishment is the most intimidating."
"Punishment? You speak like that rigid class monitor."
"Kiana knows Fu Hua is very strict?"
"Eh?"
"Don't mind it. What I mean is, once you remove the last piece of armor, it will trigger a punishment, and as for what interesting punishment it will be, I don't know either."
"??"
You don't know?
But Kiana knew it would definitely be something awful.
However, Kiana had to admit she was a bit nervous.
Originally, she had prepared herself mentally to endure "even if her armor was exposed," but now there was an additional random punishment.
But indeed, such pressure was substantial.
What if he goes wild and calls Mei over?
Kiana was a bit anxious.
"What, has the 'knight' of the Kaslana family decided to back out? Want to give up? But once it starts, it will continue until you score full marks. Even if Kiana begs and cries, I won't stop."
"Who said I'm giving up!"
Kiana, like a small white dog, lay on the floor, her forehead still pressed against the cold floor.
Though her posture was very humble, her words were powerful and spirited, almost like... Han Xin being humiliated.
"Just a mistake earlier. I'll show you a perfect score!"
"Oh~~ Nice, that's the spirit. Keep it up, I'm rooting for you."
