Honkai City: start making an anime version of Honkai Impact 3rd

Chapter 3: Schicksal Far East Entertainment Company

Himeko introduced the academy diligently until the sun reached the middle of the sky. It was time for a lunch break, and Himeko took Cillian to the principal's office. Theresa, Cecilia, and Siegfried were already sitting there talking and laughing.

 Himeko led Cillian and knocked on the door.

 Theresa, who was originally playing with Cecilia, reacted instantly, coughed a few times to clear her throat, and showed the dignity of the school principal.

 "Come in."

 Himeko opened the door and said with a smile: "Principal Theresa, my mission has been completed."

 "Thank you for your hard work, Himeko."

 Cillian said politely, "I look forward to meeting you next time, Ms. Himeko."

 "Yes" Himeko left the office and closed the door.

 As soon as Himeko left the office, Cillian stopped acting, half-lying on the sofa for guests, unbuttoning his suit jacket, playing with his flaxen short hair, and his temperament changed on the spot.

 "Why don't you continue acting?" Theresa said with a smile.

 "Haha, Theresa, we have known each other for a long time. You have watched me grow up." Cillian said with a smile.

 "Shut up!!!" Theresa shouted angrily with her face flushed.

 " hahahaha." Cecilia and Siegfried couldn't help but laugh out loud.

 "You, you guys, you...ah! Cecilia, even you bully me!" Theresa threw a super headbutt into Cecilia's arms, and kept rubbing against Cecilia's tall figure.

 That super headbutt caused Cecilia's chest to feel some pain. She frowned slightly, stretched out her hand and gently pinched Siegfried who was still laughing wildly, signaling him to restrain himself.

 Cillian took a sip of the slightly cooled tea and said seriously, "Okay, Theresa, it's time to talk business. I came to Far East this time for two reasons: first, to inspect, and second, I am planning to set up a branch company of Schicksal in Far East."

 "Huh?" Theresa raised her head in confusion. She could understand each word, but when they were put together, she couldn't understand them.

 'You come to set up the Far East Branch of Schicksal, so what is my place? Is Grandpa going to withdraw his investment? No more pocket money?!'

 Theresa felt anxious.

 Cillian explained: "The president is not going to withdraw the investment, but is going to convert it into an investment share, so that St. Freya Academy can become a pure educational institution, rather than a vassal company of Schicksal."

 Theresa's little head was completely confused.

 She didn't understand a single word, but it was enough for her to know that her Grandpa would still give her pocket money.

 "So, Theresa, I plan to establish a Schicksal branch in Nagazora. You know, the president has handed over the third section to me, and I have already thought about what to do."

 After hearing what Cillian said, the three of them immediately became curious. Although they already knew that Otto had handed over the entire third section to Cillian, they had never known what he was going to do.

 For example, the first section that Theresa is in charge of focuses on education, the second section that the Kaslana family is in charge of focuses on novelty, and the third section that Cillian is in charge of has never been clear what to focus on.

 Theresa asked curiously, "So, what are you going to do?"

 Cillian smiled and said, "I'm in charge of the entertainment section."

 "Are you planning to compete with the Anti-Entropy?" Theresa asked in surprise.

 "Not entirely. Anti-Entropy's focus is on real-life special effects, while mine is on virtual animation. There may be some overlap, but the focus is not on the same track."

 Cecilia asked, "Virtual animation? Brother, have you thought of the script yet?"

 Cecilia knew Cillian very well, and she knew that her brother would not make up his mind unless he was absolutely sure.

 "Almost."

 Cillian adjusted the projection on his mobile phone onto the white wall.

 "Honkai is a natural disaster that accompanies the development of civilization. It gives birth to a monster called the Honkai Beast. People with Honkai adaptability will become dead soldiers if they are infected by Honkai energy. When Honkai energy reaches a certain level, Herrscher will be born. Each Herrscher has corresponding powers."

 Siegfried nodded and said, "It does have some zombie style, but the word Honkai is a bit novel."

 "Brother, you are awesome." Cecilia applauded enthusiastically.

 Cillian gave the three of them a brief introduction to his character, but he still kept it mysterious and didn't tell them the character's setting.

 After lunch, Cecilia and Siegfried went to see Kiana. Ignoring Theresa's "persuasion", Cillian left St. Freya Academy and arranged for a driver to go to the company's address in the west district.

 It was a prosperous district and the only place in Nagazora City that could barely be compared with St. Freya Academy. There were tall buildings everywhere and many workers came and went.

 The tallest building in the center is several stories higher than other buildings. Looking down from above, it feels like a pilgrimage.

 Cillian looked at the woman who was waiting to greet him downstairs and couldn't help but feel a headache.

 At the entrance of the building, a woman in an OL professional suit showing off her seductive figure, with gray-gold bangs covering her left eye, looked at him with a half-smile in her burgundy pupils. A teardrop mole at the corner of her eye added a bit of charm. She walked towards Cillian with her slender legs wrapped in black stockings.

 "Lord Cillian."

 Cillian rubbed his forehead and said, "Ah, it's Rita, why did you come to the Far East?"

 Rita looked at Cillian and said with a fake smile, "What do you think, Lord Cillian?"

 Cillian suddenly recalled that a week ago, the president called him to the top floor.

 "My old friend, have you really decided?"

 "Of course, my dear president, don't you want to defeat those friends of Anti-Entropy in the area where they are best at?"

 "Well, I don't want to." Otto looked at Cillian's unsurprised expression and felt bored. He smiled and said, "Okay, okay, I admit that I still have some thoughts in my mind. Just go for it. I'll arrange a capable person to assist you."

 "Thank you, my dear president, I express my sincerest gratitude to you."

 "Schicksal will always stand behind you, for the Saint Fantasy!"

 Otto was like a madman. He had always been calm, but when the fantasy about the saint was mentioned, he became extremely excited.

 "Otto, what are you doing again?" A clear, pleasant, yet doubtful female voice came from the office door.

 Following the voice, they saw a woman leaning against the door frame. She had a face like a fairy, a sexy figure, white hair and blue eyes, a long pigtail draped behind her, and she was wearing white sleeves and a short skirt. Her long legs were wrapped in pure and flawless white silk, and she was wearing a loose black windbreaker.

 "Oh, Cillian is here too!"

 "Kallen..."

 Before Cillian finished addressing her, he saw Kallen's blue eyes suddenly turn cold.

 "Sister Kallen," Cillian called out from the bottom of his heart and stepped forward to take the shopping bag from Kallen's hand.

 "Very good." Kallen stood on tiptoe and rubbed Cillian's hair like she was petting a puppy.

 "Kallen, you're back" Otto stood up.

 "I'm so tired after a whole day of shopping. Sakura finally came to Europe, and I really want to visit all of Europe."

 Kallen sat in Otto's seat, and Otto stood behind her consciously. The actual person in charge of the Schicksal chaebol spanning three states gently rubbed Kallen's weak shoulders.

 At the end of the memory, Cillian vaguely remembered that Otto said that he would send a capable person to assist him, but he didn't expect it to be Rita?!

 "I didn't expect the president to send you, Rita. I thought it was Shigure Kira." Cillian walked towards the company.

 Rita walked beside Cillian at an arm's length and said in a wronged tone, "Could it be that in Cillian's heart, Rita is really not as good as Senior Shigure Kira?"

"I didn't say that." Cillian had a headache. He still preferred Shigure Kira because she was easier to control. People like Rita and Elysia were the ones that gave him the most headaches.
