Liu Bai looked at Rita next to him.
Because of Rita's "dawdling," there are only two maids in Liu Bai's house today: Rita and Estella.
"It's already been decided."
Rita took the document out from under her skirt.
"This is just a first draft. Please take a look."
"Let me see……"
Liu Bai glanced at Rita's skirt, his eyelids twitched, and he calmly took the document.
...I really want to smell it.
"Estella, lift your skirt."
"You—! Okay, alright, I understand..."
Tsk, it's still a pink puppy.
While the main reason for bullying Estelle is to see her shy expression, this is just too unprofessional.
"Estella, submit me a shift schedule tomorrow as well."
"Maid shift schedule?"
"No, not a maid."
Liu Bai glanced at Aista's skirt.
Estella was stunned for a moment, then her face quickly turned red.
However, Liu Bai had already looked away at this moment.
This is an order, not a request for opinions.
"no problem."
After briefly reviewing the shift schedule, Liu Bai nodded and took out the temporary stamp he had borrowed from Ning Guang to stamp it.
As long as everyone has a chance to work in shifts, that's fine.
As for what kind of crazy ideas Rita has hidden inside... sorry, Rita really wants to die, and that's all Liu Bai can do to help.
With a shift schedule, Rita wouldn't really do something drastic to herself.
"Let me see what's going on today... Hmm, is it related to Anti-Entropy? The Quantum Sea anomaly?"
Sigrún has taught at the Iceland University of the Arts as a part-time lecturer since and was Dean of the Department of Fine Art from -. In – she held a research position at Reykjavík Art Museum focusing on the role of women in Icelandic art. She studied fine art at the Icelandic College of Arts and Crafts and at Pratt Institute, New York, and holds BA and MA degrees in art history and philosophy from the University of Iceland. Sigrún lives and works in Iceland.
"Bianca, you've heard about the Quantum Sea anomaly, haven't you?
“Dr. Elizabeth told me this when I came.”
“Elizabeth… I thought you would call her Changguang.” Otto glanced at Bianca leisurely.
"...I'm not so clueless that Changguang is a title."
"Yeah."
Otto smiled and nodded.
"Then let's get back to business. Where were we, Elizabeth?"
"Speaking of the appearance of giant creatures in the Sea of Quanta—can life really exist there?"
"That depends on how you define it."
Otto rested his chin on his hand and pondered for a moment.
"For example, life within a bubble world?"
"...You could say that in a certain sense."
Bianca pondered for a moment, then nodded slightly.
"But this time it's clearly different. Dr. Elizabeth means that a life form that can live directly has appeared in the Sea of Quanta."
The appearance of life in the quantum sea is... well, it's comparable to the blossoming of the tree of imaginary numbers.
What? You don't understand?
Surely the three-legged toad can understand?
The terms "tree" and "sea" are, in a sense, analogies that humans have sought to describe based on their observations.
...Although given the vastness and mystery of these two things, it's not impossible for such a situation to actually occur.
However, based on observational experience...
Well, upon closer inspection, her common sense is completely inapplicable to this world.
"Hmm... okay, I'll take it as true."
Before Otto could explain, Bianca's sudden self-reconciliation caught him off guard.
...I'm not used to it yet.
Is this a rare instance where he's not naturally naive, or did he forget to play dumb this time?
Otto likes natural airheads, but hates intelligent airheads.
For example, Karen... well, Otto actually has a love-hate relationship with airheads.
Otto glanced at Bianca seemingly unintentionally, then continued speaking.
"Since you've accepted this, I'll elaborate on it."
Otto tapped on the table.
"First of all, that creature did not just appear."
"..."
"If we're strictly speaking, it should be called 'activity'."
"Ancient demon gods?"
"Hmm...it depends on how you interpret it, although I feel that the classification of those ancient gods is really too crude."
Otto first shook his head, then nodded.
"However, it does indeed come from ancient times and is related to demons and gods."
“…” Bianca nodded, looking at her with a listening expression.
Otto was slightly speechless.
Bianca had just been clever; he thought Bianca was about to start a discussion.
In the end, he just kept nodding.
“Fontaine might know the specifics about that creature.” Since Bianca wasn’t going to chime in, Otto had to continue. “However, this event involving that thing has nothing to do with Fontaine.”
"...What does that relate to?"
Bianca, seeing Otto's composed phrasing, couldn't help but ask.
"Heaven."
Otto pointed to the sky.
"A few days ago, I detected an unidentified flying object in outer space."
"...Unidentified flying object?"
Bianca paused for a moment.
"How far away?"
"I don't know. The energy field around that thing is very chaotic, and it's the first time I've seen anything like it. Although I've estimated the distance, the result is completely unreliable."
"...After all that, has anything meaningful been said?"
"Don't rush, we're just getting to the point." Otto coughed twice, signaling Bianca to calm down.
"As I said, there is an energy field around that unidentified flying object. Although it is still far away at the moment, Earth has now entered the interference range of the energy field."
Otto finally suppressed his usual smile.
"Bianca, you should have noticed, right? The Honkai have been quite active lately. Even if we don't mention the super Honkai beasts that appeared in Liyue, you should have noticed from the battle reports of the last half month. Even the strength of the suicide soldiers is increasing."
"...So there have been more wounded in each branch recently?"
Bianca nodded.
(Hmm... this description sounds familiar...)
"So, you're saying that the creatures in the Sea of Quanta also became active because of this?"
"Yes."
Otto nodded. At this point, even Bianca, who was naturally clueless, could understand.
"The problem is quite simple now. We can't let that creature go unchecked... Well, since we're on the topic, let me tell you again. That creature is whale-shaped—that's all I know."
"whale……?"
"Isn't it a coincidence? 'A whale was born in the sea'... Common sense appeared where it shouldn't be expected." Otto said with a hint of amazement.
"...It's quite a coincidence."
(I think maybe it's because it looks like a whale but isn't a whale, so they just threw it into the sea, which is called the sea but isn't actually the sea.)
"Is there anything I can do to help?"
Chapter 354 Wielding Blade Against the Gods
"You can help... But the conversation hasn't progressed to this point yet, how about you continue listening to me?"
Otto sat up from the back of his chair.
His expression gradually changed from calm to serious.
“Okay.” Bianca nodded calmly.
"Hmm... let me think, how should I begin..." Otto stroked his smooth chin. "Bianca, have you noticed anything amiss in your life?"
"For example?"
"...I don't know what your life is like."
Bianca's thoughtless answer made Otto facepalm.
"But I think you should be able to detect some problems."
Otto has absolutely no desire to be Bianca's brains now.
"Is there a problem...? Does it count if the cafeteria runs out of cumin today?" Bianca asked hesitantly, resting her chin on her hand.
"...I guess so."
Otto's composed expression began to falter.
"The shortage of seasonings is the cafeteria's fault, and I will have them replenish it before tonight... So, are there any other obvious problems?"
"..."
Bianca began to seriously consider what Otto meant by this question.
"Hmm...you just said whales appeared in the Sea of Quanta?"
"...This is definitely not right."
Otto sighed.
He's starting to doubt his own judgment.
"But this has nothing to do with your life, does it?"
“Hmm…” Bianca frowned slightly.
"...Bianca, haven't you ever wondered why your hair suddenly turned blonde?"
Otto composed himself and scrutinized Bianca intently.
