Genshin Impact: Joining the Genius Society

Chapter 340: Columbina: “An unfamiliar Her Majesty?”

"How’s this one?""It’s delicious!"

"Then eat more."

Inside the Supreme Guardian’s office, Su Ran was holding Clara in one arm while feeding her.

The scene left Serval quite curious.

She couldn’t help wondering—where did this kid come from?

And why was someone as powerful as Boss Su Ran so attentive to a little girl?

Could she be... his illegitimate child left behind somewhere?

Even though Clara kept calling him "big brother,"

Serval still felt like something was off.

Gepard was also present, but compared to Su Ran and Clara, his attention was constantly drawn to the massive robot beside him.

Standing next to Svarog made him feel unusually small.

"Clara, do you want to go off-world?"

"Off-world?"

Clara didn’t quite understand the term.

"Leave this planet. Go explore the outside universe, broaden your horizons."

For someone who had been confined to a single city for centuries,

That idea was completely foreign.

Especially for Clara, who grew up in the Underworld—

Even the concept of leaving her planet was unfamiliar.

"Will it be very far?"

Going to another world...

It sounded exciting, but she hadn’t even explored the Upper District yet, let alone beyond the city.

Her curiosity about space wasn’t that strong—yet.

"It’s very fast. Big brother’s technology is advanced—just a blink of an eye."

"Then Clara wants to go!"

If the journey was that easy, there was no reason to hesitate.

"Boss Su Ran, I want to go too!"

Serval raised her hand eagerly.

Leaving the planet?

That sounded way better than staying here as a researcher!

"You... fine. Belobog’s current focus is survival anyway. Giving you a few days off isn’t a problem."

Now that the snow outside had melted,

People all over Belobog were heading out to explore.

Serval was a top-tier talent, sure—but letting her take a short break wasn’t a big deal.

Besides, the local research environment was limited.

Sending her to Herta Space Station for further study would be far more beneficial.

"Yay!"

"And you, Bronya—you’re coming too."

Bronya, who had been mentally preparing to return to confinement once Su Ran left, froze when she was suddenly called out.

Leave the planet?

She almost couldn’t believe it.

A week ago, this wouldn’t even have been imaginable.

"...Understood, Boss."

She couldn’t refuse.

And the chance to see other worlds... was undeniably valuable.

"And you two..."

Su Ran pointed at Svarog and Gepard.

"Boss... have you ever seen a commander just leave like that?"

Gepard looked at him with quiet resentment.

If Bronya were still in command and staying behind, that would be fine.

But now she had no official position—and she wasn’t staying either.

Someone had to lead the Silvermane Guards.

"Fair point."

Having never properly managed a military structure, Su Ran hadn’t considered that.

"Then you and Svarog stay."

As for Cocolia—no chance.

She wasn’t even present, and she was currently responsible for governing Belobog.

Su Ran had every intention of making her work year-round without rest.

A vacation? Not happening.

"Alright, let’s go!"

"Your Majesty?"

Columbina looked at the "Land Duck" standing beside Su Ran with confusion.

Then she glanced at the blonde woman behind him—

And the little girl in his arms.

"...."

How long had it been?

The child was already this big?

Columbina was stunned.

Did she accidentally sleep through several years last night?

Had the Tsaritsa already had a child?

But wait—

One had gray hair, the other black—

How did they produce a white-haired, red-eyed child?

"...?"

Bronya was equally confused.

Was that girl... talking to her?

"You see Her Majesty and don’t even bow?"

Su Ran spoke sternly, clearly dissatisfied.

But Columbina ignored him.

Because something felt... off.

The "Her Majesty" in front of her—

The aura was completely different.

"Genius, who is she?"

After a brief moment of thought, Columbina realized—

This might not be the real Tsaritsa.

Even if they looked identical, the difference in presence was undeniable.

"She’s the Tsaritsa’s long-lost younger sister. Second—no, third. There’s a fourth even younger."

Based on age:

The Tsaritsa was the eldest,

Then the "real" Bronya,

Then this Land Duck,

And finally Silver Wolf.

"...."

Are you serious?

Columbina didn’t believe for a second that the Tsaritsa had multiple sisters.

Three of them?

That was ridiculous.

Sure, there were twin Archons—

But quadruplets?

That was pushing it.

"So you brought her here... for a family reunion?"

Regardless of the truth, Columbina could tell this Bronya wasn’t artificially altered.

This was her natural appearance.

So this trip...

Was just to find someone who looked like the Tsaritsa?

"No. I’m here for a coup."

Columbina: ???

Do you hear yourself?

You found someone who looks exactly like the Tsaritsa—

And you’re staging a coup?

Are you serious?

Besides—

If this "younger sister" were actually willing to take over,

The Tsaritsa probably wouldn’t refuse.

Columbina had seen it more than once—

The Tsaritsa trying to dump her workload onto the "Little Tsaritsa."

Unfortunately...

The "Little Tsaritsa" always responded the same way:

"I’m just a child. I don’t understand anything."
