"Are you all leaving soon?"
"Yeah, there's a lot of work that needs to be done around the house. By the way, where's Dr. Tesla?"
Thea asked curiously, and Einstein, who heard this, immediately answered.
"Joachim suddenly fainted, and Dr. Tesla rushed him into the incubator to treat his body. His health condition is fine now, maybe he's just tired. As for Dr Tesla, she's still beside him waiting him woke up."
"Oh, I see..."
Thea looked sideways with a very stiff face.
She suddenly felt very guilty.
Actually, the reason why Welt Yang could suddenly faint was her own doing.
As the Herrscher of Reason had opened and closed the coffin boards over and over again to a professional level. While she was healing to Welt Yang's body, Thea became doubtful whether there were still any stigmata on his current body, or not.
Sure enough, when she checked his entire body with her instincts as stigmata, Thea did not find the slightest presence of Herrscher of Reason's stigmata in his body.
Perhaps it was because he had changed bodies several times that Herrscher of Reason's stigmata waved his hand in resignation, and just walked away without leaving a single trace.
Or maybe it's because Welt Yang's consciousness has merged into the herrscher of Reason's core, and he doesn't need the function of the stigmata anymore.
However...
Even though Welt Yang didn't have any stigmata in his body, Thea was able to give one of her own to him in secret.
Uses her own stigmata as a link to the herrscher of Reason's core, and can use his power of "Creation". Even though she didn't obtain the stigmata, she had at least managed to obtain the power of the Herrscher core, even though it wasn't her own power.
Besides, when she was in Siberia. Thea had created the Peusedo gem of conquest using Herrscher of Reason's power, and this probably caused the honkai energy in Welt Yang's body to be sucked dry.
No wonder he suddenly fainted.
Thea really apologized to him from the bottom of her heart.
"Looks like I'll have to find a successor to the Herrscher of Reason for Welt Yang. Being a parasite long time wouldn't be a good idea."
Thinking back to Bronya, the third Herrscher of Reason successor, who was currently still in Cocolia's orphanage. Thea could only shake her head helplessly.
Let's talk about this later after Aurora finds out where Cocolia's orphanage is.
Now, she has to go home.
"Dad, will you stay here, or will you come with us back to Schicksal?"
"Ah? What?"
Stop shoving big donuts in his mouth. Siegfried drank cold tea to clear his throat, and he quickly cleared away the crumbs of bread left around his lips.
"How about I choose the third option. Would you be interested in taking a walk around the roads of Canada and seeing the beautiful scenery here? I can be your guide!"
Thea shook her head.
"Sorry dad, still the same answer. How about you Maria, would you be interested in going for a walk with Siegfried?"
Maria shook her head quickly: "No, there are still a lot of unfinished business! Miss Saintess, you can rest easy, Maria will always be by your side!"
Seeing that his proposal had already been rejected by the two of them. Siegfried could only lower his head in disappointment.
"Really... Then dad won't be returning now. Tell them that I'm currently on a special escort mission to guard the leader of Anti-Entropy who suddenly fainted."
What Siegfried meant right now were the elders in the kaslana family. They always demanded that he return the Judgment of Shamash, which made Siegfried's head very dizzy.
Take advantage of the opportunity to get out of Schicksal, and try to create an alibi. Siegfried decided to delay his return as long as possible.
Let those elders be dizzy because of their own troubles.
Thea nodded her head, and she gave a small smile: "Dad can rest easy. You can leave everything to me. Maria, let's go."
"Yes Miss Saintess!"
Siegfried, who saw Thea and Maria leaving, waved his hand until they both disappeared from his view, and Einstein, who had been sitting quietly while drinking black tea, looked at his comrades with sharp eyes.
"Your daughter is growing up so fast."
"Well... They grow too fast sometimes..."
Siegfried lowered his hand again, and he let out a very long sigh.
"You know, when she went to Schicksal headquarters, she was still about as tall as my chest. It's been three months now, and she's almost the same height as me. Why is this kid growing so fast? Seeing her always makes me feel so old! Bianka, her oldest sister isn't even growing this fast!"
"Siegfried..."
"Yeah?"
"....You know that's not what I meant."
Siegfried: "...."
Einstein: "...."
Stared into each other's eyes silently, and could see the doubt that was in Siegfried's eyes. Einstein just shrugged lazily.
"Never mind, you are her family, and you must be the most aware person. If you don't want to talk, then I won't interfere in your family matters."
"I just wanted to say, you should be happy with your daughter's growth. At least she has chosen what she wants to be. You don't need to worry."
Siegfried, who heard Einstein's words, could only grip the fence tightly.
"But she's still 13 years old... As her father, I feel so useless..."
Einstein shook her head helplessly: "All parents will also experience this kind of feeling. Happiness when they see their child start walking for the first time, laugh at their child's innocent laughter, and also feel sad when you realize that your child has grown up."
"Even though I don't have a child, I have felt that feeling of yours when taking care of Joyce and Joachim. As an experienced person, I'm just saying to let them choose their own path."
Seeing that Siegfried is still silent, and remains depressed. Einstein could only sigh once more, and she gave a powerful suggestion to cure all depression.
"There's still a bunch of old wine in the cellar. Would you like a drink together?"

At the Schicksal headquarters....
The first thing Thea needed to do when she returned to Schariac's house was talk to her sister Bianka to allow Aurora to leave Immortal Blade, and she also needed to fill in all the members of the security team led by Aurora.
Among the pool of talents she included. Besides the valkyrie Schicksal who has high loyalty to the Schariac family, Thea also includes Wendy and Anna in the team.
She put them both under her watch.
Wendy is the former vessel of the gem of desire, and she is also a candidate for the Herrscher of Wind who will appear in the future.
Anna Schariac, not only is she also from the Schariac House, she is also a candidate for Herrscher of Ice.
Even though neither of them currently had herrscher cores in their bodies, and their potential to become herrschers in the future was still very dubious due to the effect of the butterflies she created. Installing supervision on both of them is still necessary.
However, it never hurts to be careful.
"Amber, where's Otto?"
Entered the Overseer room, and saw Amber hanging around in panic. Thea was curious, and she walked towards her slowly.
"Amber, what's wrong is there a problem?"
Amber shook her head uncertainly: "I just realized that Overseer Otto has severed all of his connection networks a month ago. Sorry miss Thea, Overseer Otto is currently not in this place."
Hearing this, Thea's face suddenly turned black.
"Wait a minute, didn't we promise to start the Stigma project together from today? Has he forgotten his promise?"
Amber hurriedly shook her head: "No, Overseer Otto always keeps his word. Miss Thea, please take this. This is a letter that Overseer Otto sent especially for you."
Received the envelope given by Amber. Thea opened it, and she took the piece of paper that was inside, curiously.
"{My friend, my research is currently entering a critical period, and I can't stop right now. This might go on for months, or more. I also don't know when this will all be over.}"
"{However, with your experience in managing the Schariac family, I can breathe a sigh of relief to release Schicksal's leadership to you for a while.}"
"{I have also given highest authority access to your terminal, and have the function to access everything in Schicksal.}"
"{If you are still confused, you can ask Amber. She is now your assistant for a while.}"
"{Oh, as for our cooperation on the Stigma project, you can do everything yourself right? You've grown up after all.}"
"{Warm greetings from your friend, Otto Apocalipse.}"
Thea: "...."
Took a deep breath, and crumpled the paper in her hand until it crumbled. The rage that she had not felt in a long time, returned, and she screamed furiously.
"Otto bastard!!!"
Damn, she was hit by a trap!!
