Honkai Impact 3: Deadwood

In the temporary medical room outside the training ground of St. Freya Academy, a white-haired girl was sitting quietly on the bedside. It's actually called the infirmary, but the room itself is just a large tent.

In the Valkyrie Physical Fitness Exam, it is not uncommon for some minor accidents to occur, such as bruises, excessive fatigue, etc. Therefore, every time a physical fitness-related exam is held outdoors, the academy will arrange several temporary schools nearby. Infirmary in case of emergency.

The captain and Theresa sat on the stools next to the girl's bed. The three of them looked at each other. The air was too quiet for a moment, and the source of this atmosphere was naturally Kiana, who looked a little lonely. She woke up a few minutes after being brought here. After the doctor's diagnosis, she only said that she was a little tired, but otherwise there was nothing serious.

However, although there was nothing wrong with her body, she would probably feel a little uncomfortable mentally. After all, she had just lost miserably to the Valkyrie from the Mediterranean Headquarters not long ago.

Theresa looked left and right, but her niece didn't speak and the captain just looked at her silently. This almost made her sick. Just when Theresa was so anxious that she could hardly sit still and wanted to break the silence, her niece suddenly spoke.

"Captain, aunt, I lost..."

"Silly niece, this is just a competition, don't take the outcome too seriously."

"..."

"Oh, do you know, you scared me half to death, we were fighting each other, and suddenly you fell down and were carried by the medical team..."

The captain patted Theresa on the shoulder and signaled her not to say this yet. Although Theresa was holding back what she wanted to say, she still tried her best to calm down as she looked at the captain.

The captain stood up and walked to Kiana, gently put his hand on her head and rubbed it, "Kiana, you performed really well today."

"captain…"

Kiana doesn't hate this. Although she feels a little coaxed like a child, when the captain touches her head like this, she can always recall her father, who would also touch her head like this, but Just a lot more rude than the captain.

"I have been paying attention to your performance this morning, Bronya, Mei Yi, Fu Hua, and you."

"..."

"I can see that everyone has improved during this time, and the one who surprised me the most today is Kiana. Your fighting skills and reaction ability have improved a lot compared to the last mission, especially with Fu Hua Her counterattack near the end of the competition, if I guessed correctly, even she was surprised, right?"

"Captain, have you...been watching?"

"Of course, everyone has been working hard recently. Even Kiana runs to the training ground every day. How can I not look forward to it when it comes time to accept the results?"

The girl raised her head. The lonely expression on her face softened a little, but then she immediately became depressed again. It seemed that she recalled unpleasant memories.

"But I failed to win the competition with that woman...I didn't even touch her once. The last one should be..."

"Despite this, you did not lose."

"Hey?"

Kiana was not the only one who was surprised, Theresa on the side couldn't help showing a surprised expression. Kiana didn't remember what happened after she threw that punch, but sitting on the instructor's bench, she naturally saw the entire competition clearly. She knew that Kiana's punch did not hit Li Tower, let alone winning or losing.

"Even if the opponent is so powerful that you can't defeat it now, even if you lose your weapon and your strength is exhausted to the point of helplessness, you can still muster up the courage to throw that punch. That is proof that you have not lost."

"captain…"

The girl raised her head and looked at the captain, her eyes widened, and her eyes regained that energetic luster.

"By the way, that last punch was very beautiful."

"Hey? Did I hit you?"

"Yeah, it hit."

Hearing these words, Kiana jumped up from the bed, "Let me just say, how could I lose so easily! She must have performed poorly!"

"Really?"

"That's right, just wait, Captain. Next time, I will beat that guy to a pulp!"

"Is she an S-class Valkyrie?"

She paused, then blushed: "Well, then I won't lose! Next time, I will definitely defeat her!"

"You'd better think about how to deal with the next exam first. It's about to start."

"Oh no???"

"Are there five minutes left?"

"Pfft!! Auntie, Captain, I, I'll go first!"

She almost ran out of the infirmary as she spoke. Seeing Kiana disappearing with a swoosh, Theresa couldn't help but sigh: "Captain, there's still half a month before the next round of exams." How many hours?"

"It's a good thing to arrive early for the exam."

"Really, but after all, you are quite good at coaxing children."

"It's just telling the truth."

"Ugh…"

Theresa sighed again. She looked at the captain up and down. Because she was so flustered, she had forgotten that the captain was punched by her niece. "Are you okay? You were beaten by the Valkyrie without protection." If hit, most people would be knocked unconscious long ago."

"Well, okay, it's not a big problem."

"Yes, yes, after all, you are not like ordinary people."

"I'm just an ordinary person..."

"Can an average person be beaten by an armored Valkyrie without changing his face or can he take the attack of an S-class Valkyrie with his bare hands? Tell me?"

"..."

The captain thought for a while and gave up the objection, but as far as St. Freya's physical examination report is concerned, his physique is indeed the same as that of ordinary people, well... probably...
