The morning sun shone through the frosted windows into the restaurant, bringing a touch of warmth to the cold orphanage. Rosalia sat at the dining table listlessly, with dark circles under her eyes, having lost her former vitality.

"Silly Rosalia, you didn't sleep well last night?" Lilia stared at her while sipping hot milk.

"I had a lot of nightmares..." Rosalia yawned and rubbed her eyes, "They were all about that weird girl with white eyes..."

"You're talking in your sleep again." Lilia sighed and pushed the bread with jam in front of her sister. "Eat it quickly. Aunt Alexandra will give us a lesson later."

The restaurant gradually became lively, and other children came in one after another. Bronya and a short-haired girl named Seele Freya sat opposite, and they also looked at Rosalia's listless appearance curiously.

Xier tilted her head and asked with concern: "Rosalia, you don't look well...are you sick?" Her voice was as soft as a feather brushing past.

"Ahaha, it's okay!" Rosalia tried to cheer herself up and was about to explain when she saw Anna rubbing her eyes and walking into the restaurant. The little girl looked completely normal, with rosy cheeks, and smiled sweetly at her: "Good morning, Sister Rosalia!"

"Good morning..." Rosalia was stunned, and the terrible memory of last night suddenly became blurred. Maybe... it was just a nightmare?

Breakfast time passed quickly amid the noise of the children. When Rosalia helped to clean up the dishes, she caught a glimpse of a familiar figure from the corner of her eye. The girl who appeared as a monster in her "nightmare" was sitting quietly in the corner, fiddling with a piece of bread.

Rosalia's hands shook unconsciously, and the plate almost slipped off. She forced herself to look away and walked quickly to the kitchen. It must be a nightmare, the girl looked so ordinary...

In the afternoon, the door of the orphanage was pushed open again. Cocolia walked in with a chill, followed by a strange black-haired girl. The girl was about ten years old, with black hair tied into neat ponytails, and her black eyes were calm beyond her age.

"Kids, this is Chuxia," Cocolia introduced gently, "From today on, she will live with us too."

The girl named Chuxia bowed slightly and said, "Please give me your guidance." Her voice was clear but without any ups and downs.

Rosalia looked at the new girl curiously and was about to go up to say hello, but suddenly she noticed that Chuxia was staring straight at the "monster girl in the nightmare", and the latter was also staring at her with an unpleasant expression.

In the evening, Cocolia called Alexandra to her room. The afterglow of the setting sun shone through the blinds, casting mottled shadows on the wooden floor.

"Alexandra, I have something to discuss with you." Cocolia took out a gold-edged document from the drawer and gently pushed it in front of the other party.

Alexandra flipped open the document in confusion. On it were the words "St. Freya Academy Admission Notice" printed in gold. She looked up, her gray eyes full of confusion: "What is this...?"

"Steiny has reached a cooperation agreement with Anti-Entropy," Cocolia said. "The former is building a school dedicated to training Valkyries, which can provide...special protection." Her fingers tapped lightly on the table, "especially for talented children like Bronya."

Alexandra said uncertainly, "You mean...send the children away?"

"We are not sending them away. We are giving them a better future." Cocolia softened her voice. "Saint Freya has the most advanced protection system, which can guarantee the safety of the children to the greatest extent. And..." She paused. "Tianming also promised to use new technology to improve the children's physique and resist the erosion of Honkai."

"I don't understand these technical details..." Alexandra said softly, "Cocolia, what do you think?"

"I...of course I am willing to send the children over there." Cocolia replied.

If what the man of destiny said was true, then the so-called new technology that could improve her physical condition would be the real temptation for her.

Cocolia didn't want to see the children in the orphanage die from Honkai, and even planned an experiment. However, the news she just received made her give up her plan and choose to believe in fate.

The leader of Anti-Entropy also mentioned in person that the current destiny is not the same as before, and those who oppose Anti-Entropy no longer need to be wary of it.

"Since you think so... then I believe you. I just don't know if the family members can go with them..." Alexandra said a little lonely. She was reluctant to let Bronya leave her side.

"Family members cannot live in the school, but they can rent a house nearby. I can provide you with financial support." Cocolia smiled at him.

"Then I'm completely relieved." Alexandra patted her chest and asked, "What about you? Will you go with us?"

"I don't need that. Although I feel a little lonely after the children left, a lot of things happened between Destiny and Anti-Entropy after all. It's better for people like me to have less contact with those places." Cocolia said helplessly.

"what a pity……"

"Haha, don't worry, it's not like I won't come to see you." Cocolia patted Alexandra's shoulder gently, "After all, I promised to watch Bronya grow up."

"So when do we leave?" Alexandra asked finally.

"Next Monday." Kokolia stood up and walked to the window. "There are still three days for the children to prepare."

However, on the second day, a new surprise occurred.

Without warning, the orphanage was attacked by Honkai beasts. It was a suffocating night. A giant Honkai beast appeared out of thin air in the courtyard of the orphanage like a ghost, and its huge body almost blocked out the moonlight. There was no sign of its appearance, and the defense system did not even send out any alarm.

The orphanage was destroyed and many children died. If the Honkai Beast had not left decisively after causing some casualties, no one would have survived.

Amid the blazing flames, the black-haired girl named Hatsuka quietly watched the terrible scene in front of her. Among the broken rubble, Cocolia held the injured Bronya, and Alexandra knelt beside her and sobbed. Rosalia and Lilia supported each other, their faces covered with soot and tears. Seele stared blankly at her home that had become a ruin.

As she walked forward, traces of burns slowly appeared on her body, and she naturally became one of the victims.
