After chatting with Lisa for a while, she put down the jade sign.
Having just seen the framework of the simulated universe, the inspiration Kiana had gained from Mama Na instantly welled up.
"Let's make a universal Search-and-Rescue game. That way, Nous-Duck will have a use for itself. In the game, one can see the many facets of human nature and learn how humans handle things."
Kiana muttered to herself and sent a message to Great Xilian, asking her to bring Nous-Duck to Taiyin Mansion.
While waiting, Kiana didn't just sit idle...
She casually picked up an official report and started reading.
"Dr. Primitive's entry application was rejected, huh. Hmm, and what's this 'Truth' Street?"
Kiana really didn't know when Wangshu had acquired a Truth Street.
It hadn't been there before she left yesterday; could some place have been renamed after she left?
After checking the relevant information, a look of realization appeared on Kiana's face.
"So they are all Pathstriders of Truth coming for Bronya... These guys are really well-informed..."
Kiana shook her head with a wry smile.
She didn't know where these people got their information, but they had tracked Bronya's name all the way to Wangshu.
Hmm... No, that's not right. The name of the new Genius Society member, Bronya, is just too famous.
It wasn't hard to find out her background, so it was no wonder these people came sniffing around as soon as they caught a scent.
"The Inquiry School and the Followers of Ultimate Truth—are these two factions of Truth that spontaneously emerged yesterday because of Bronya?"
"Yes, they are believers who follow Truth."
Bianca stopped what she was doing, turned to look at Kiana, and then pulled a document from a pile and handed it to Kiana, saying:
"And there's this. It's an application submitted by the Inquiry School yesterday. They want to open a Truth University deep within Truth Street."
"Do these cosmic idlers have nothing better to do...?"
Kiana took the document with a speechless expression and began to read it carefully.
"Who knows..."
Bianca shrugged slightly, noncommittal about Kiana's complaint.
"Their purpose is to recruit those in the universe who sincerely seek the Truth both inside and outside the cosmos?"
After pondering for a moment, Kiana approved the application and said jokingly:
"They really have started treating Wangshu like their own home, hahaha..."
Bianca nodded after a moment of thought, seemingly in agreement with Kiana's joking remark.
Both branches of these Truth factions followed Truth, and Truth was Kiana's close friend, Bronya, who was also the Herrscher of Reason...
So, truthfully, in the end, weren't these two groups just working for Bronya?
Working for Bronya was just working for Kiana, and working for Kiana was just working for Wangshu.
So, that statement wasn't wrong at all.
Kiana set aside the application submitted by the Inquiry School and picked up another one to read.
This one was, surprisingly, another application regarding Truth.
"Let me see, let me see..."
Kiana read it carefully, but as she read on, she realized something was wrong, and by the end, she had black lines all over her forehead.
The last short paragraph read: [Aha believes that Elation is also a path to Truth in the universe! Aha wants to become a Follower of Ultimate Truth, and Aha wants to bring even greater fun to Wangshu!]
*Riiip*— Kiana expressionlessly tore the application, which was suspected to have been submitted by Aha, into shreds, then crumpled it into a ball and burned it to ashes.
"Sister, from now on, please carefully screen them. Check if there are any applications from Aha or that bunch of pranksters. We'll handle the ones from the Tavern pranksters differently, but for Aha's, just tear them up immediately."
Kiana half-closed her eyelids and spread her hands speechlessly.
As soon as Kiana finished speaking, a burst of laughter appeared all around, causing everyone in Taiyin Mansion to stop working.
[Wuu wuu wuu, Aha has been ostracized! Kiana, you're so mean! Aha is going to show that Light Cone to everyone!]
A mask appeared out of thin air, first turning into a sad mask, then twisting into a laughing mask.
Kiana's expression changed upon hearing this.
Why does the General care so much about the Light Cone mentioned by The Aeon of Elation? Could it be hiding some secret of the General's?
Yushu's eyes narrowed slightly as she stared at Aha's mask, thinking of countermeasures.
Even The Aeon of Elation cannot threaten a General of the Xianzhou Alliance.
Should I tell Marshal Fu Hua about this...
Just then, Kiana, wearing a gentle smile, grabbed Aha's mask.
*Crack*... With a slight exertion of force, cracks appeared on the edge of Aha's mask.
[Ah... Aha says Aha was joking, do you beli...]
"Get lost!"
*Whoosh*— *Thud*—
[Aha will be back!!! Hahahaha~]
The dome of Taiyin Mansion was smashed into a hole by the Aha mask, which had turned into a stream of light, and then the mask gradually moved away until it disappeared from sight.
Uh... It seems our General of Wangshu doesn't need to worry about being threatened by an Aeon at all...?
Yushu's mouth twitched slightly at the sight, and then she continued to lower her head and work.
She had still underestimated her own severely overpowered General.
Bianca, looking at the dome that Kiana had casually repaired, said with slight concern: "Kiana, aren't you afraid that treating The Aeon of Elation like this will cause It to stir up trouble behind your back?"
"Aha won't become hostile, don't worry."
Kiana waved her hand confidently.
What kind of relationship did she and Aha have!
Aha couldn't possibly backstab her; the two of them were friends who could find fun together inside and outside the universe~
Meanwhile, Aha's mask appeared in various places...
In front of Mei at the Wangshu military camp...
In front of Bronya at the Herta Space Station...
In front of Vita at the Sky-Faring Commission...
After sneaking into the Garden of Recollection and learning the techniques, Aha had processed the memory in the Light Cone.
After showing the Light Cone to the three of them, Aha laughed and left.
And just then, Kiana's smile in Taiyin Mansion froze, and then her eyes lit up slightly.
Aha's true form, far away somewhere in the universe, suddenly froze.
[What was Aha going to do? Oh right, Aha is going to find some fun!]
Aha's massive figure disappeared from the spot.
Kiana had taken away all of Aha's memories and the Light Cone regarding seeing her and Liviel being intimate.
Although Aha had only seen the memory of her hugging Liviel at the end...
But Kiana felt that she would be easily backstabbed again in the future, so she just took it away altogether.
"Oh no..."
Kiana lay on the table with a bitter face.
Bianca, beside her, looked puzzled, not knowing why her sister was suddenly looking so distressed.
Inside the Wangshu military camp, Mei, who was resting after sparring with Li Sushang, saw the energy projection of a Light Cone left behind when the mask of The Aeon of Elation suddenly appeared and disappeared, and subconsciously picked it up.
The Light Cone turned into energy and merged into Mei's body, and then a memory processed by Aha appeared in Mei's mind.
Looking at the 'intimate' pair in the memory, Mei opened her mouth slightly, then gently stroked her chest and took a deep breath.
"I need to ask my dear Kiana tonight what exactly this is all about..."
Mei smiled, her tone exceptionally gentle, but if one looked closely, one could see a vein slightly throbbing on Mei's forehead.
Vita at the Sky-Faring Commission also received this memory, then tilted her head slightly, revealing a playful smile.
"Does Vita think she can get involved too~?"
Thinking this, Vita continued to follow behind Tingyun and Griseo with a smile.
At the Herta Space Station, Bronya, who was checking the data of the simulated universe framework with Herta and the others, stopped what she was doing.
"Kiana... Hmph!"
Bronya looked up in the direction of Wangshu, then turned her head away forcefully and continued to check the simulated universe.
She appeared fine, but in reality, the corners of her mouth had already drooped significantly.
