"Just talking about it might be difficult to understand. How about the Dean experiences it herself?"
"Sure." Theresa nodded.
"It sounds like this technique requires you to be close to others to work?"
"Yes," the black-haired girl replied with a bitter smile.
After thinking for a moment, Theresa actively jumped out from behind her desk and walked to Luo Lin's side, looking up at her.
"Let's begin."
"Okay."
At the moment, Luo Lin had mastered some methods of using her emotional diffusion constitution, such as how to slightly increase the intensity of emotional diffusion, how to open and close the diffusion state...
The girl felt that there were still many things worth exploring.
Luo Lin was still using the "clumsy method": to spread a certain emotion, she would immerse herself in that emotion, then open the diffusion state to influence those around her.
As for how to simplify this clumsy activation, or directly select the emotions to be diffused from her complex thoughts, and how to extend the distance of emotional diffusion, Luo Lin had not found a good method yet.
After all, she was still exploring the use of her special constitution.
Taking a deep breath, the black-haired Valkyrie began to search for useful memory fragments in her mind, preparing to enter a state.
Luo Lin skillfully brought out memories of her interactions with Cecilia, Sirin, and Kiana—especially memories of rubbing the purple-haired and white-haired hair, which helped her immerse herself in indescribable emotions.
At the same time, Luo Lin didn't forget to open the emotional diffusion state, and even used the power of honkai to enhance the intensity of diffusion...
A few seconds later, tears welled up in Theresa's eyes as she held the black-haired girl's hand.
Luo Lin looked at the Dean with her iconic silver-white hair, subconsciously reaching out to touch Theresa's head.
Luo Lin was unaware that her hand was acting up; almost unconsciously, she used her fingertips to comb through Theresa's hair, untied Theresa's side ponytail, and neatly re-braided a side twist, just like Kiana's.
Under the influence of emotional diffusion, Theresa was lost in thought, her mind went back to the past; with Cecilia's indulgent smile on her face, embracing her and helping her with makeup.
"Cecilia... I miss you so much..."
The Dean murmured.
"..."
The familiar words snapped Luo Lin out of her immersion in memories of rubbing the purple-haired and white-haired hair.
She looked down tremblingly and realized that the person in her arms was not Sirin or Kiana, but a certain older loli...
The feel of Theresa's hair was somewhat similar to Sirin's and Kiana's, but a bit firmer, as if to prove that she wasn't as young as she looked.
After all, Teriri had lived for more than forty years...
Oh no, would the Dean use Judah to blast her out of the office?
With this thought, the immersive emotions brought about by memories changed.
Even Fu Hua who stood by as stiff as a wooden person could feel the tense and awkward atmosphere in the air.
Theresa's face grew redder and redder, even the roots of her ears turned crimson, making her look like a cooked lobster, emitting steam.
"Okay, that's enough. I understand what your constitution is now."
The Dean shot out of Luo Lin's embrace, returning to the chair behind her desk in a rush. She tried to maintain a calm tone, but the remaining redness on her face amused Luo Lin.
Theresa coughed twice, waved her hand, and activated the holographic projection.
A letter of appointment appeared in front of them: "This is an order issued by Archbishop Otto. You will be reassigned to the Far East Branch to continue monitoring the Herrschers. Luo Lin, you also need to use your special ability to suppress the Herrschers' destructive impulses."
"Luo Lin, although you are currently only a B-rank Valkyrie, your authority has been raised to S-rank by Archbishop Otto. Currently, you are directly under the Archbishop as an S-rank Valkyrie... Grandpa has high hopes for you, so keep up the good work." The Dean said very seriously, her innocent expression even made Luo Lin feel a sense of guilt.
"I understand."
Theresa put away the projection and handed two sets of keys to Fu Hua and Luo Lin.
"These are the keys to your dormitories, one set for each of you, right next to Raiden Mei and Kiana's student dormitories..."
Luo Lin's expression was subtle. "Student dormitories?"
"Yes."
The Dean scratched her head helplessly. "In theory, we can't let Raiden Mei feel different from ordinary people. It's best to make her identify with humans, just like the Herrscher of Reason, fighting for humanity... So making her a student of Saint Freya should be the best choice."
"So, do we have to be students too?"
Fu Hua interjected. Theresa covered her forehead.
"No, you are just borrowing the student dormitories for convenience in communicating with Raiden Mei... But if you want to attend classes with them, I can try to arrange it..."
"Let's forget about that."
Kiana and Raiden Mei's courses are all starting from scratch, which is useless for Fu Hua and Luo Lin.
After thinking for a moment, Luo Lin spoke up, "By the way, can I attend the relevant courses for A-rank Valkyries? I plan to take the promotion exam for A-rank Valkyries."
Although the gold medal instructor Himiko Murata was outstanding, always using her assist time for classes was somewhat of a waste.
It would be more profitable to alleviate Himiko's pressure with the teaching staff from the real world and use the freed-up time to dive into the Abyss and the battlefield, wouldn't it?
"That's no problem, but you have to ensure that it won't delay the mission of monitoring the Herrschers..."
Theresa agreed. St. Freya Academy has a strong teaching staff, not only capable of teaching ordinary Valkyries but also responsible for the advanced education of Valkyries. The advanced Memorial Arena system in this academy is large enough to serve as a venue for the A-rank Valkyrie promotion exam.
However, St. Freya can only issue up to B-rank promotion certificates for now; A-rank promotions must be done at the Schicksal HQ.
After all, A-rank is already considered elite talent, and Archbishop Otto must personally inspect it.
As for the higher S-rank, there is no promotion exam for this level, it is entirely based on personal record, and the headquarters will directly evaluate and issue it—Luo Lin actually knows that basically, these are talents personally selected by Archbishop Otto.
Theresa tinkered with the terminal a few more times, issued the permissions to Luo Lin and Fu Hua, and finally said in a gentle tone, "Okay, go and see Raiden Mei and Kiana quickly... They've been waiting for your news for days."
"Thank you, Dean."
Luo Lin and Fu Hua exchanged glances, then pushed the door and left the office.
After the door closed, Theresa's forced calm facade collapsed directly.
She lay on the table, her eyes turning into mosquito coils: "Wuwu... How did I lose control like this... My dignity is gone now..."
The Dean turned her head to the side, rubbing the freshly braided twist, muttering,
"But Luo Lin's skills are really not bad, making me think of Cecilia..."
Theresa also thought of the white haired girl she met a few days ago and couldn't help but smile, "Ah, Kiana, I didn't expect you to come to my school for study. This time, I will definitely take good care of you and not disappoint your parents' expectations..."
