Chapter 53: Chapter 53: "Too anxious sometimes makes everything messy"
The explosion of the honkai fusion bomb could be seen very clearly in front her eyes.
Maybe within 5 seconds, a wind wave will appear, and after that it will be accompanied by a huge explosion.
Even though K-423's destiny is bound by time itself. At least, she still had a chance to play with time.
Time for her now is the most worthless thing. Because she has the ability to control time, and extend time.
"Let's use Fenghuang Down's feather to draw Cecilia's consciousness into the illusion. At least there I can prolong the time as much as possible."
Takes out a purple colored Fenghuang Down feather from within her stigma room. K-423 placed her in front of Cecilia, and she immediately pulled her in there.
____
The illusory world of Fenghuang Down...
"Where..."
Cecilia opened her eyes again, and she realized that she was currently sitting in a very empty mall chair.
This feeling is somehow very familiar...
"Sirin, are you dragging me into the illusion of Fenghuang Down?"
"Ah?"
Lying in Cecilia's arms. Sirin, who was waiting for death to arrive, opened her eyes in complete confusion.
Seeing the familiar shop window in front of her. Sirin found that something was wrong.
Where is the fusion bomb explosion?
Isn't it already night, why is it suddenly noon?
Where are they?
A series of questions immediately flooded Sirin's brain. But, when she felt Cecilia's warm embrace from behind her back. Sirin closed her eyes again quietly.
So stupid with death.
At least, before she died, she wanted to feel this warmth during their last moments together.
"Why... Damn it! It's not only Sirin who can be toyed with by Fenghuang Down, it turns out that I can too! Good, I'll burn you tonight!"
"Kiana?"
Cecilia was attracted by the sound of cursing that suddenly appeared behind the shop window. Looking closely, she saw that there was a little girl with white hair that had the tips of her hair slightly colored purple, crouching there.
Cecilia recognized the little girl.
"(If I'm not mistaken isn't she the one impersonating my daughter? Is that really her true form? Is she Kiana? But isn't Kiana still in Schicksal's headquarters right now?)"
For the entity that disguised itself as her daughter when they all entered the Fenghuang Down illusion created by Sirin. Cecilia admitted that she was currently very confused.
Cecilia had absolutely no idea of this little girl's identity. It's like a character that suddenly appears in a story.
Confusing, and also makes people feel very astonished.
But....
Even though she didn't know the identity of this girl, Cecilia could feel kindness radiating within her eyes.
She needs affection, but she also strongly rejects it.
Her caustic mouth is just a manifestation of self-abandonment. She didn't want anyone to feel sorry for her.
Cecilia could also feel the loneliness and emptiness from within her heart.
Maybe it was because she and Sirin were too similar, that was why Cecilia considered the two of them as her own daughters.
"Kian-Ehem! I mean, excuse me, is anyone there?"
"Ah..."
Stopped grumbling, and realized that she had entered an illusion as well. K-423 straightens her clothes, and she walks off the counter quietly.
Watching Sirin who was in Cecilia's arms. K-423's face turned ugly, and she clicked her tongue in disdain.
K-423's facial expression did not escape Cecilia's keen eye.
"Good night, good day? Anyway, we meet again, Cecilia."
Cecilia nodded her head.
"Are you the one who dragged the two of us into the illusion of Fenghuang Down?"
K-423 shook her head: "I did draw you into this place. But the other one didn't."
Feels like something offends her. Sirin opened her eyes slowly, and she looked at K-423 in confusion.
"Who are you?"
Ignoring Sirin's question. K-423 looked at Cecilia's face seriously.
"Cecilia Schariac, do you want to live? I can help you."
To K-423's question, Cecilia was in no rush to answer.
"Why do you want to help me?"
Of course she still wanted to live.
She still has a daughter at home who needs a mother figure. She also has a ridiculous husband she needs to take care of.
She couldn't imagine how the two of them would be living if she died here.
But...
Instead of immediately agreeing to her proposal, all she cared about right now was what this little girl in front of her wanted from her.
There is no free food in this world.
All adults know this.
"It seems you are still suspicious, the Information gap does influence one's judgement. In that case, I will sincerely tell you who I really am."
Clearing her throat, K-423 gave Cecilia a friendly greeting.
"My name is K-423, a stigmata that was born with Kiana. For some undetermined reason, my current identity now is the will of the stigmata of the Kaslana family."
Hearing many familiar names, but still confused if they are arranged in one sentence. Cecilia confessed that she currently felt really stupid.
But, there was something that intrigued her.
"K-423?"
She don't know why the name is like an experimental product.
"Ah, that's a name I took. Like I said before, I am the consciousness of the stigmata, I theoretically don't have a name."
Cecilia suddenly understood. Was this the reason why during a birthday party, she wished she wanted a name?
Cecilia understood, and her eyes filled with deep tenderness.
.... K-423 averts her gaze.
"By the way, As for my name, it's also the name of Kiana's clone. Ever since you died, things have been very chaotic there."
K-423 talks about her family's future without hesitation. She hoped that this could at least draw out Cecilia's compassion.
"Siegfried wanted to take the real Kiana from Schicksal headquarters, but she could only save Kiana's clone at that time. Now, your husband is still a fugitive from Schicksal."
"Your daughter fell from the plane at a height of thousands of meters, and her situation is still unknown at this time. Siegfried thought she was dead."
"Otto has also made a clone that is almost exactly the same as your daughter. It is the body that gave birth to me. Several years ago, Siegfried was still drinking and had lost the will to live..."
Tell Cecilia a very bleak future story, and exaggerating a bit. K-423 ignored Cecilia's gaze which slowly changed from a gloomy expression, to a murderous expression.
Apparently, her hatred towards Otto had started to increase tremendously.
Sirin, who was in Cecilia's arms, admitted that she was sweating coldly now.
Angry Mama Cecilia... so scary!
"Is that the future of my family?" Cecilia asked in disbelief.
K-423 nodded her head.
"Yes, that's right. Even though everything has gotten better, Kiana still misses a mother figure. I, who have the ability to travel through time, of course will make her wish come true as best I can."
"That's why I'm here Cecilia."
"I want to save you."
"To Kiana, and also to Siegfried."
"They have given me enough warmth in this lonely world. So that's why I will pay them back."
"So Cecilia, would you like to follow me back home together?"
