Chapter 137: Chapter 67 : Drunken Urien

"How did it come to this?" Fu Hua wondered as she looked at the scene in front of her. The sight was… strange, even for her, who had lived for a long time.

You might be wondering what she is witnessing right now? Well… "Come back here!" someone shouted.

Yeah, she is currently watching Urien running for his life from his chaser as a said chaser is a certain someone wielding a kitchen knife and a machete in her hand.

"Why are you running?!" the white-haired girl asked as she rushed toward him.

"Hua! Help me!" the male whitehead shouted for help.

"I can't, Urien. I drank the wine too, remember? And I can tell that she'll unleash the Vapor of Serenity if I start interfering," Fu Hua shrugged as she gave a reply.

"Dammit!" Urien cursed. He was getting tired from running away, and he left his weapons on the battleship today. And they'll die if the girl uses the power of the Herrscher of Death. No, not just them. Even the people around will die.

"You are not Kiana!" Urien shouted as he looked at the girl chasing him from behind. Of course, his legs are still working to keep him alive.

"Humph! Why are you thinking I am her?!" the girl shouted back.

"Hua! Where is Kyuushou?!" Urien shouted again.

"I am sorry, Urien. You are in this on your own," came the voice of the Savior from the headphone. "I will not hurt Sirin, never," she added. "Moreover, she doesn't intend to kill you. For that, I can tell," after a long pause, she continued. The solemn voice of the Savior is rare, and Urien decided to trust her.

Fu Hua, who was watching the situation, sighed. She really wanted to help Urien, but she couldn't. Her body is sluggish because of the Honkai Neutralizing Serum added to the wine.

*Beep* *Beep* *Beep*

"Hello, old friend. How are you doing? How is the mission?" Otto's voice rang from the other side.

"I bet you can see what is going on from there. See it for yourself," Fu Hua replied.

"This…," Otto was speechless for a while after seeing the scene.

"It is Sirin who is controlling Kiana's body right now," Fu Hua informed.

"I see…," Otto muttered as he tapped his finger on the arm of the chair. He wondered why the Second Herrscher, who has immense hatred for Humanity, had decided to chase the newly appointed A-rank Captain instead of taking her revenge on Humanity.

"Do you mind explaining the situation to me, old friend?" Otto asked.

Seeing that she couldn't do anything in this situation, Fu Hua decided to explain what happened this morning.

Flashback to this morning,

After Fu Hua beat the shit out of the First Herrscher knock-off, she ran downstairs. But… When she reached the dining area, she heard the voice of someone she didn't expect.

"Eat to your fill, Kyuushou. We can send this budget to HQ as a mission-related expense," a male's voice reached her ears.

"You don't have to tell me twice, Urien!" answered another voice. Fu Hua is familiar with both of those voices.

She stopped and rushed toward the place where she thought the voices were coming. There, she saw Urien and Kyuushou eating breakfast with gusto.

"Urien? Kyuushou? What are the two of you doing here?" Fu Hua asked as she gawked at the two stuffing their mouths with food.

"Hmm? Hua? You are here too?" Quickly swallowing the food inside his mouth, Urien asked.

"I'm on my mission, Urien. And how did you get here? This building was supposed to be sealed off by the Anti-Entropy," Fu Hua asked.

"Hmm? We came here just like anybody else," Kyuushou replied.

"Well, I guess that explained why there's no one here in the dining room," Urien nodded.

"Seriously, Urien?" Fu Hua deadpanned at the sight of her friend drinking wine in the morning.

"What? I'm not the one paying for this," he shrugged. "Here, have a drink," he handed her a glass.

"I'm on a mission, Urien. I can't drink," she stared at Urien like she was staring at an idiot.

"Come on, Hua. Just a cup," he continued.

"Urien… are you drunk? At 9 in the morning?" Hua looked at the boy, thinking that he was not this sloppy in his previous life.

"What? No! Of course not!" Urien tried to deny it, but some red flush on his face said otherwise.

"He had been drinking since 6, so it has been 3 hours since he started drinking," Kyuushou betrayed him on the spot.

"Hey! Oh right, you don't drink, do you?" Urien tried to pull together with him, but he realized that Kyuushou doesn't drink alcohol.

Sighing a little, Fu Hua grabbed the glass and chugged it in one go. She seriously needed a drink after speaking with her friend. "So, what are you doing here? Are you on your mission?" she asked.

"I've already finished…," Urien's voice trailed off.

"What?" Fu Hua raised her eyebrow.

"Aren't you currently on a mission?" Urien asked back.

"I forgot!" Fu Hua retraced her steps and rushed toward Kiana and where the gem was kept. She seriously forgot about it as soon as she saw Urien.

She needed to work on her concentration. After meeting Urien again after a long time, she tends to forget whatever she was doing when she found him in her line of sight.

"Why does my body feel sluggish?" As she kept rushing toward where she felt the Honkai Energy was getting higher, Fu Hua thought. "Maybe because I used too much power," she added.

"So, what are your plans?" She heard a voice coming beside her.

"I'm searching for Kiana now. Wait… how did you appear beside me?" Glancing beside her, she was surprised to see Urien there, and she didn't even notice how he appeared.

"Magic," she facepalmed as she heard the whitehead's reply. Of course, what was she expecting when asking that to a drunk.

"Where is Houraiji?" the immortal phoenix asked to which Urien just smirked and answered, "She went to grab the battleship. We can leave as soon as we finish whatever we do here."

"Nice," she nodded. Turning right, Fu Hua stopped as she felt the power of the Gem of Serenity. "No, we cannot stop here," shaking her head, she continued her way.

"There!" she informed Urien as they stopped in front of the metal door.

The metal door opened, and Fu Hua stepped inside. "You seem to be in need of help, Dr. Magi," she greeted the man.

"Who are you?" without taking his eyes off from Kiana, the old man asked.

"I am Fu Hua, an A-Rank Schicksal Valkyrie. The Overseer Otto sent me to save you and bring the gem back," she introduced herself and stated her reason for being there.

"Another one of Otto's lackeys? You are not like this innocent little girl," helping himself up, he mocked her. "I can smell blood from your hand," he added.

"Wow! Did I just see a pedo in the making?" At that time, Urien came up from behind Fu Hua's shoulder and asked.

"I'm sorry for my friend here. He was drunk before coming here," Glaring at Urien, she apologized.

"Name's Urien Gregorios. An A-Rank Captain of Schicksal," he introduced himself with a hiccup at the end.

"I'm not a pedo!" Dr. Magi shouted. "Wait… where did he drink the alcohol?" He asked as he thought of something.

"From this hotel. Why do you ask?" Fu Hua answered the question as Urien is in no shape to have a serious conversation.

Slapping his face, he dragged the hand down from there. "I might have put Honkai Neutralizing Serum into the wine bottles," he replied.

"You did what?!" Fu Hua screamed, trying to control the Honkai Energy in her body, but it was futile. She didn't know how much Honkai Neutralizing Serum was added to the wine.

"It was Cocolia's idea," the old man sighed.

"Meh, whatever. Let's get the two of you out of here," the drunk Urien doesn't think about whatever they are talking about.

"First, did Otto give you a container to insulate the gem?" Dr. Magi asked.

"No, he didn't. But, there's another person who gave me this small soulium box," Fu Hua replied as she took out the bluish-black box from her pocket.

"Good. That thing should be able to keep out the ambient Honkai," he nodded. "And before I forget," pulling out the serum from his pocket, he throws it toward Fu Hua.

"This is Honkai Neutralizing Serum. Give the girl 5 ML of this once you reach a safe place," he explained. "Save the rest for another. She asked me to help with her instructor's Honkai problem," he added.

"That will be major Himeko she talked about," Fu Hua nodded.

"And I won't be able to get out of here alive," pulling down his shirt, he showed them the zombification on his body. "The extreme Honkai levels here have thoroughly infected my body."

"Sorry. I guess You'll have to fail this mission," Dr. Magi apologized, looking at the two youths in front of him.

"Meh, this is not my mission, so our completion rate is still 100%" pulling out the flask, Urien started drinking again. The birthday gift given to him by Kyuushou on his 16th birthday had found its use.

"Urien," glaring at her drunkard friend, Fu Hua chided. "Don't worry about it, Dr. Magi, and I am very sorry about his behavior," and she apologized to the old man.

"I am about to die. What can I do about it? Just go," Dr. Magi sighed. "I must stay and destroy the reactor before it goes critical. A reactor meltdown will render Singapore uninhabitable for years to come," he informed Fu Hua.

"Then we shall leave at once," carrying Kiana like a princess, Fu Hua said goodbye to the old man. As for why she didn't let Urien carry Kiana… Well, it is already lucky for her not to carry both of them at once.

"We're going, old man. Take care!" Urien did a two-finger salute.

"Brat! I'm about to die at any moment, and you are telling me to take care?!" Finally, the old man snapped at Urien. "Anyway, I have a message for the girl when she wakes up," he said as he controlled his anger.

"Go on, I've opened the recorder," Urien told him.

"She may be quite foolish and naive at times. But her courage achieved a miracle that saved everyone in this city," he started. "Tell her that I'm very proud of her," and gave them a thumbs up.

"Thank you, Dr. Magi," Fu Hua nodded.

"The idiot can have her moments from time to time," Urien smirks.

Fu Hua grabbed Urien's arm with one hand and started hopping from building to building to avoid the explosion. Even if there is no Honkai Energy in her, her physical fitness is still that of a MANTIS. Of course, she'll be stronger than a normal human.

Looking at the explosion, Fu Hua thanked Dr. Magi, and it was because of him that Singapore was safe.

"Time to take the Gem from Kiana's hand," as she tried to grab Kiana, her instinct made her dodge the blow coming to her face.

"You are pretty fast," Kiana(?) muttered as she stood up.

"Kiana… she's under the control of something within the gem," Fu Hua muttered as she prepared for battle. Looking at her glowing orange eyes, Fu Hua noticed something. "You… should I call you Sirin?" she asked.

That created a reaction on Kiana's (?) face. "How do you know my name?!" she demanded.

"Return to our slumber, Sirin. Or I'll make you sleep," Controlling her breath, Fu Hua bluffed. With her body now damaged because of wine, she couldn't use her abilities.

"HAHAHA!!! You're good at dodging questions, Valkyrie! Don't worry. I'll—" she stopped talking because of a sound coming from the side.

It was Urien who woke up from his slumber. He fell with his face on the ground when Fu Hua dodged Kiana's (?) blow to her face.

"Brother?!" the girl was shocked. But then, a nasty grin appeared on her face. "I thank you for your gift, Valkyrie. I'll let you live this time," She ignored Fu Hua after saying that.

Urien, who was wasted, did not know that his friend unintentionally sacrificed him for her safety. Opening his eyes, he looked around. When he saw Kiana(?) walking toward him, he did nothing because he did not need to fear Kiana.

But all of those tipsiness was thrown out of the window, and he immediately sobered up after dodging the kitchen knife coming to his face.

"What are you doing?!" he shouted.

"Ah~ My brother! You are finally in front of me after many years! I'll cut off all of your limbs so that you can never separate from me ever again!" pulling out a machete from out of nowhere, Kiana(?) started her chase.

"And that's what happened," Fu Hua recounted what happened.

"So… you sacrifice him to Sirin?" Otto's flat voice came from the other side.

"It was a necessary sacrifice. And Sirin doesn't intend to kill him, so I don't have to worry about him," Fu Hua replied.

"Hey! I heard that!" Pointing his finger at Fu Hua, Urien screamed. "Kyuushou! Send me my Daishou!" he told Kyuushou from the communicator.

"Aye, aye, Captain!" With that, Daishou was thrown out of the window of the battleship.

"That damn idiot!" Jumping high, although he tried to catch his Daishou, it was intercepted by Kiana(?).

"This is a nice sword you got there, dear brother. Do you want me to hack you with these? I thank you in advance," she thanked him and drew the katana from the sheath.

Seeing such a scene, Urien didn't know what to do. "I… I can't do anything at all," he said.

At that time, something incredible happened. Two words appeared in the corner of his vision.

"Wait, what?" And Urien's face was a sight to behold.
