As this group of people fired their rocket launchers in unison, Siegfried's body was instantly engulfed in flames.
Then...
"That's enough."
With a burst of Honkai Energy, Siegfried used its power to blast away the surrounding flames and dust in one go.
"I'm busy and in a hurry today, and you dare to stand in my way at a time like this?"
Facing the mercenaries before him who had just tried to kill him without hesitation, Siegfried had no intention of holding back this time.
Drawing the Judgment of Shamash, Siegfried, using its rapid-fire mode, instantly killed all the mercenaries before him.
This group of mercenaries, who had just launched their ambush, didn't even have time to make a second attack before they were all turned to ash by the Judgment of Shamash's assault.
"Tch, damn it..."
Looking at the completely unusable bicycle, Siegfried clicked his tongue in dissatisfaction.
And just then, the communicator on him suddenly rang.
"Hmm... Dr. Einstein?"
"Siegfried, here's the situation."
Although Einstein's tone was, at this moment, almost the same as usual, calm with a hint of laziness.
But now, after hearing Einstein's slow words, Siegfried, for some reason, started to feel a little nervous.
"Cocolia says she has kidnapped Kiana. If possible, we hope you can handle this immediately."
"What did you say?!"
Hearing Einstein's news, Siegfried was instantly furious.
"That moron Cocolia, she dares to lay a hand on my daughter?!"
"That's how it is. We have no way of verifying if what she said is true."
After a slight pause, Einstein continued to Siegfried.
"But trust me... with her personality, she's really capable of doing something like this."
"...I understand. I already know Kiana's location. I'm heading over there right now. When I get there, I'll personally verify if this is true."
"Ah, be careful."
After Einstein cut the communication, Siegfried felt like his blood pressure was about to explode today.
The main reason for his high blood pressure was twofold.
On one hand, as a father, he was naturally enraged that someone was trying to harm his daughter.
But on the other hand, as a warrior fighting against the Honkai, Siegfried now truly felt that some people were just damn traitors sent by the Honkai to the human camp.
Cocolia intends to trigger the Third Eruption in Nagazora City, Ryoma's daughter will directly awaken as a Herrscher because of it, and it's almost certain that ninety-nine percent of the millions of people in Nagazora City will die.
And it doesn't end there.
How could he not know the identity of his second daughter?
She's the Herrscher of the Void!
And a Herrscher of the Void who resents humanity!
Once Kiana, due to poor treatment and experiences, is stimulated to release her Herrscher Personality...
"Cocolia...!"
With this murderous shout, Siegfried forced himself to calm down a little.
*Don't panic.*
*With an ambush of that level, that kid Kiana should be able to dodge it if she's careful.*
*And that kid from Schicksal is also after Kiana.*
*Although I don't believe Otto would do anything good, Kiana is the Herrscher Host that Otto worked hard to revive, so he definitely won't let anything happen to her.*
*From my conversation with that young man, I can feel that he hates the Honkai that took his family.*
*If Otto were to send a bodyguard to protect Kiana, he certainly wouldn't inform this bodyguard that Kiana is the Herrscher of the Void who harmed countless people back then.*
*That kid was able to injure me, and with Kiana's own strength, they should be fine.*
*So now, what I need to do is also very simple.*
*This bicycle is useless, I need to get a vehicle to rush over and check the situation.*
*Once the situation is confirmed, Cocolia, I'm going to fucking kill you!*
Siegfried, who was not good at overthinking, found that in a situation where his daughter and the world were simultaneously in crisis, he had completed his analysis of the current situation in less than ten seconds.
*Sigh, people are really forged by pressure.*
Just as Siegfried was about to play the role of a thief, he suddenly noticed something.
"No way..."
Sensing the presences hidden in the shadows, Siegfried looked at the leading Valkyrie, Rita Rossweisse, and said with great helplessness.
"Junior, although I'm handsome and dashing, I'm already married."
"If possible, could you please stop pestering me?"
"Mr. Siegfried is joking. Rita has no such interest in you."
At this moment, Rita, dressed in a maid outfit, faced Siegfried, who should have drawn his weapon, but instead, she restrained her aura and bowed politely to him.
"Rita has come this time for some other reasons."
"Sigh, why you again."
Looking at the unlucky junior he had just met today, Siegfried said helplessly.
"I just injured you today, why did Otto send you here again?"
"Hey, junior, you didn't offend Otto and get sent here to die, did you?"
"...You're joking."
At this moment, Rita, her expression unchanged, said to Siegfried with a smile.
"Lord Otto's actions certainly have their deeper meaning. He wouldn't do something so boring."
However, just because she said this refutation, it didn't mean Rita didn't have her own thoughts.
Today, after she rendezvoused with her superior, Durandal, the two of them, as the captain and adjutant of the Immortal Blades, should have started to act together.
But before this operation, Otto gave an order for Durandal not to participate in this mission and to conserve her strength to deal with the upcoming Herrscher.
The reason was suitable, but the actual reason...
*Lord Otto, could it be that you are worried that after Durandal comes into contact with Siegfried, she might have some undesirable thoughts?*
