At the kitchen door, Cocolia leaned against the door with one hand, looking at the girls huddled in the corner, with a gentle smile in her eyes.
'Hey, hey, hey, get it clear, you are not their Mother!'
'Why not? I can give them the protection and care that Cocolia can give them; I can also give them the intimacy and care that Cocolia can't give them. Why can't I be their Mother?'
'...I always feel it's a little self-deceiving. From a real perspective, we are actually their enemies, the enemies who killed their mother.'
'Why don't you just say it? Anyway, we will use the identity of Cocolia until the day she "dies." I like them very much, and I have the confidence to always be their Mother.'
'Okay, it's really self deceiving, just think it's all Cocolia's fault.'
'Well, who can resist the cute and lovely Vodka sisters and Sin?'
'Cocolia's death was deserved. As for deceiving them, we can only work hard to make them happy in the future.'
'There is no such thing as perfection in the world. We are all adults, so don't be childish.'
The Angels exchanged words one after another, put aside the moral issues that could not be sorted out, and reached a consensus that Angel Cocolia would continue to be a good mother.
"But speaking of it, all the bodies I have had are actually virgins. How did I suddenly upgrade to a mother?"
Cocolia's mouth twitched. So far, the most extreme thing she had done was nothing more than 'generating electricity' by herself.
As for the deeper intimate level, she had no experience with either men or women. Thinking of this, the Angels felt a deep sorrow at the same time.
'Cocolia Angel, Miss Angel, this is Saint Freya Angel, please reply if you receive it!'
'Hmm? What's the situation?'
'Oh, Theresa appeared.'
'What a great opportunity! Then, it's the big lady's stage!'
…
The time goes back to five minutes ago.
In the Japanese tatami hotel room, a seafood sushi feast with a luxurious price but pitiful portion was placed in front of Angel and the other four.
Kiana's hands were so fast that they were blurred, and she stuffed food into her mouth quickly, eating with great pleasure. Although each portion was small, the total number of portions was large, so it could still support her consumption.
"Not as good as Mei… chew chew… chew chew… but outside, I don't ask for… chew chew… so much…"
The ahoge on the little white-haired girl's head was shaking left and right happily, but she still didn't forget to maintain the lofty status of Raiden Mei in her heart.
—Refers to the status of a special cook.
Raiden Mei chuckled, feeling a little embarrassed by the praise. Watching Kiana's feasting, her big light purple eyes were filled with an intoxicated soft light.
Bronya asked Raiden Mei about the proper etiquette of eating.
"Sister Mei, is this how mustard and soy sauce are used?"
"Yes, Bronya did a great job, but if you really want perfection, you can lower your elbow a little, so that the wrist and the back of your hand form an elegant arc... like this."
Raiden Mei demonstrated the eating action dignifiedly and elegantly, covering her lips with one hand and chewing with her jaw slightly, as if every pore was releasing an elegant and cultivated noble breath.
It can only be said that she is worthy of being the queen of the Raiden family, the daughter of a noble warrior born and raised in the Far East, and her etiquette is simply an eye-opener for everyone present.
Raiden Mei looked at their expressions of surprise or admiration and suddenly smiled shyly, saying:
"Okay, these are all strange etiquettes that are not used at all in normal times. In fact, as long as you enjoy eating, you don't have to care."
Everyone who was watching nodded immediately. Indeed, they are Valkyries fighting against Honkai, not socialites who are committed to marrying into a wealthy family, so they don't need these overly elaborate rituals.
As long as they are not like Kiana, who digs for food like a wild boar.
"Ah..."
At this time, Angel curled up in Himeko's soft arms and sighed deeply.
Because Cocolia Angel was just discussing the moral issue of revenge for killing a mother, Angel also felt a little confused.
Himeko lowered her head with concern, tightened her grip on Angel, and said softly:
"What's wrong? Is the pain not over yet? Are you uncomfortable somewhere?"
"No, I'm fine."
"Oh, so you are still entangled in the matter of wetting the quilt the night before yesterday?"
"Himeko!!"
Angel raised her head with a flushed face and glared at Himeko angrily.
We agreed to keep this matter secret from everyone!
Himeko tilted her head, stuck out her tongue, and said cutely:
"Hey, I forgot!"
"I... just..."
"Okay, okay! It's no big deal. For a Valkyrie, this erosion disease is as difficult as life and death. You just sweated in pain and may have leaked some other fluids. This is already a great thing! If it were someone else, they would only be lying on the hospital bed in a daze!"
"That's right, you little guy really don't know how high the sky is. You are lucky to be able to get through it so easily. Why are you still entangled in these? In my opinion, you haven't suffered enough!"
Theresa rolled her eyes, picked up a piece of sushi, and put it in her mouth.
Everyone nodded in agreement.
"???" ×5
The next second, the five people on the vacation trip focused their eyes on Theresa at the same time.
"Auntie, how come you are here... Wow! I almost fell out!"
Kiana asked halfway, and then she quickly covered her mouth with both hands, chewing vigorously, and looked at Theresa with big eyes full of question marks.
Theresa was wearing a long dress of aristocratic nuns in the academy, eating sushi, and said casually:
"I heard that my lovely student actually encountered the super dangerous Honkai energy erosion disease, how could I still sit still? Besides, you ignorant little bad guys didn't even call me when you came out to play, it's too much!"
Theresa's expression was very indignant, and she pointed at them one by one, finally stopping at Kiana's face.
Especially this little brat!
Auntie is so good to you, how could you not inform me when you have good things happening right now?
Is this still my lovely niece?
Is it in vain!?
Kiana chewed and chewed for a long time before swallowing the food in her mouth, and then said with a dazed look:
"But teacher Himeko said that my aunt is very busy and has no time to come out to play, so we should not disturb you."
"Himeko!!!"
Theresa turned her head and shifted the direction of her ire fiercely and cutely.
Himeko shrugged, hugged Angel, and said nothing, looking comfortable and calm with Angel.
Theresa glared at her for a long time, and finally put aside the grudge for the sake of taking care of Angel in the past few days.
"Okay! The principal has decided, I will also join your vacation trip, and the expenses will be deducted from Himeko's salary! It's decided happily!"
"Knock knock!"
Just when Himeko's face changed slightly and she was about to fight for her wallet, there was a light knock on the door.
"Dear guests, our geisha performance is ready. Do you want to enjoy it now, or..."
The eyes of everyone turned to Himeko. After all, she was the only teacher in the original group of five, and she arranged most of the trip, including this expensive hot spring hotel.
"Then let's do it now."
Himeko said indifferently, blinking confusedly.
Does the room package here also include geisha performances?
Himeko recalled, but seemed to find no relevant memory.
