Chapter 226: Chapter 226: Raiden Makoto: “I Don’t Understand, But I’m Deeply Shocked!”

Was what just happened extremely embarrassing for Ruan Mei?

Not necessarily.

Her sense of morality was already rather... flexible.

Making such a sudden and drastic change only felt strange to her—it hadn’t yet reached the level of ”shame.”

If one had to explain it in a way ordinary people could understand, then it would be this:

Geniuses have their own moral frameworks.

That was true for Herta.

And it was true for Ruan Mei as well.

Their values were simply different from those of ordinary people.

”This is truly eye-opening. Are you conducting some sort of experiment?”

If it had been just Herta alone, Su Ran would’ve suspected a scheme.

Something like deliberately messing with him.

But with Ruan Mei involved too...

That made it hard not to suspect internal competition between geniuses instead.

”Who’s cuter—you or her?”

Herta crossed her arms, her face full of a cat-like question mark.

”You.”

Su Ran answered without the slightest hesitation.

”Good taste!”

Herta was delighted.

Winning against Ruan Mei so easily made her especially happy.

”It’s just different styles. Cat ears naturally give you an advantage.”

If it were a maid outfit, though, then Ruan Mei might have won.

After all, her figure could actually support it.

As for Herta...

Well, hopefully her real body was a mature beauty and not a loli.

”I’ve seen the cat ears, taken the photos—now tell me your real purpose.”

When something was abnormal, there was always a reason.

Su Ran didn’t believe they were just here to act cute for no reason.

”I want to study with you. Is that okay?”

Ruan Mei took the initiative, seemingly thinking their relationship had improved.

”Get lost.”

Su Ran rejected her without even a hint of courtesy.

”...”

Herta was secretly delighted.

Ruan Mei really was hopelessly bad at social interaction.

Did she really think wearing cat ears and meowing a few times would make someone comply?

Su Ran wasn’t one of her brainless admirers.

How could he possibly agree so casually?

Even Herta herself mostly provided things to Su Ran rather than asking him for help.

Right now, they were the ones trying to raise his favorability—not the other way around.

She clearly hadn’t grasped the hierarchy.

”Ruan Mei said you aren’t a normal lifeform in this universe. Care to explain?”

Compared to Ruan Mei, Herta was far more... human.

She didn’t bring up research.

She only wanted him to explain his mode of existence.

”Oh, it’s nothing special. I found a certain cosmic species, roughly copied their traits, created something similar to an evolutionary energy source, and tried evolving into their kind.”

The explanation was simple.

Too simple.

So he just wanted to become another species...

So he made an evolutionary fuel...

And then evolved himself?

”...”

Even Herta didn’t know how to process that ridiculous train of thought.

That actually worked?

”Was that species special in some way?”

A race that even Su Ran admired—

How powerful did it have to be?

Herta was curious.

”Handsome.”

”...”

Ruan Mei, Herta, and Raiden Makoto all fell silent at the same time.

They’d thought there’d be something profound.

But that was it?

Ruan Mei had even pulled out a notebook to take notes—

And the answer was just handsome?

”That’s it?”

Herta refused to believe it.

”That’s way too cheap, isn’t it?”

”Very handsome.”

”Other than handsome?”

Herta was starting to lose it.

Su Ran was a genius—

A Genius Society genius!

His abilities were absurd beyond measure.

And yet here he was, repeating handsome like that explained everything?

Did he really have nothing else going for him?

She didn’t say it out loud.

Because if she did—

Su Ran would probably nod and agree.

When it came to narcissism, only he could rival himself.

”That species doesn’t exist in this universe. I recreated it based on memory. I don’t even know how accurate it is—how could I explain its racial traits?”

Su Ran spread his hands.

If he really could do it perfectly, he’d already have an army of hundreds of billions of Ultras.

Who in the Honkai universe would dare say no then?

The next day, the Interstellar Mafia would be knocking on his door.

”So... you failed?”

Herta sounded disappointed.

She’d expected more miracles.

”That’s not necessarily true. At the very least, I evolved a lot. Even Nous noticed me because of it. Maybe I succeeded.”

At this point, whether it was success or failure no longer mattered to Su Ran.

He’d gained enough power to protect himself.

”If, as you say, they come from another universe... Does that mean you can perceive other universes? Or that you yourself are from one?”

Ruan Mei had never truly cared about that species.

From beginning to end, her focus had always been Su Ran himself.

That single question hit Herta like enlightenment from above.

The concept of a multiverse had always existed—

But there was no definitive proof.

Even the greatest scientists couldn’t verify it.

Yet Su Ran claimed to have created evolutionary energy based on a being from another universe.

Did that mean—

He was the key to proving the multiverse?

Herta’s curiosity, which had briefly dipped, now skyrocketed.

Among the four of them:

Two were consumed by curiosity.

One was struggling to explain things clearly.

And only one.

Raiden Makoto—

Hadn’t understood a single word of the conversation from start to finish.

But in order not to stand out,

She copied Herta and Ruan Mei,

Staring at Su Ran with a look of intense curiosity.

Even if she didn’t understand what they were talking about—

As long as the vibe was right, that was enough.
