Someone in Honkai, This Narration Isn't Right / Honkai Scroll Dog Path

"Siegfried, something terrible has happened!"

At that moment, the terminal's speaker suddenly increased in volume and switched to speaker mode.

And at that moment, Siegfried instinctively felt that something was wrong.

This was Dr. Tesla's voice, but...

Why did it feel so off?

"Ryoma, something happened to Ryoma!"

"We received news that he committed suicide in prison out of guilt!"

... !

"But I can guarantee it wasn't suicide. Cocolia, it must have been Cocolia—"

At this moment, Siegfried crushed the communication terminal in his hand.

Sensing the fluctuations around him, Siegfried turned around with a grim expression and saw Mei's face.

"Dad... Dad he..."

"Mei, calm down!"

Siegfried, seeing Mei's hair begin to float, said to her with extreme tension.

"Cocolia that idiot doesn't fully control ME Company yet, she wouldn't kill Ryoma this quickly. This is definitely false information, don't believe it!"

False information?

Glancing at the display screen in the nearby gas station, which was broadcasting news about 'financial criminal Raiden Ryoma committing suicide in prison,' the Honkai Energy fluctuations around Mei became even more terrifying.

Dad isn't dead.

Uncle Siegfried is right, Cocolia wouldn't...

Dad...

Kiana...

Uncle Siegfried...

Lin Yu...

I'm sorry, I... I... I...

Even though she knew this needed verification to confirm its truth, Mei, who was already in a bad state, was now completely unable to think rationally.

After losing the ability to think rationally, Siegfried's previous words of comfort, due to the news of Raiden Ryoma's death, had the opposite effect.

Those words, meant to comfort her, now felt like sharp knives piercing her heart, gouging open her inner self, and causing the sliver of despair hidden deep within her to erupt completely.

"Aaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhh!!!!!"

Accompanied by the maiden's desperate scream as her consciousness faded, the area where the two of them were located...

—was instantly engulfed by terrifying Honkai Energy.

Also, this book is a harem, I'm not putting the tag on because I'm afraid of being targeted and reported. Don't think I'm joking, I've actually encountered this before.

The book will be available for purchase tomorrow morning at 10:30 AM. Since I'll be releasing a lot on the first day anyway, let me see...

The average chapter on Ciwei Mao is two thousand characters, so I'll release twenty thousand characters, equivalent to ten chapters.

I'll release a portion first at 10:30 AM. Anyway, Ciwei Mao's submission deadline is before 6 AM the next day, so I'll finish the first day's twenty thousand characters within the deadline.

For subsequent releases, I'll set up a bounty.

Before setting up the bounty, I think I've shown my attitude, which should at least add a little bit of credibility.

Considering Ciwei Mao's standards are like this, I've referenced my peers and decided this standard is about right.

100 Monthly Votes = 2000 characters

100 Blades = 2000 characters

10000 Cat Biscuits = 2000 characters

I don't recommend giving Treasure Chests.

Because they are really expensive.

When I set up a bounty, I just want to collect the free Blades and Monthly Votes you have. For large rewards...

I won't be hypocritical, I like them.

But there's really no need to spend so much just to adjust your mood while reading a book.

If you insist on giving rewards, Silver = 2000 characters * 5, Gold = 2000 * 16.

This is only limited to happy occasions, because I don't actually get money for general celebrations.

There's no upper limit, and it will continue until the end of the month, the 31st at 11 PM.

If I personally have any operational rewards or give Blades, they won't be counted here—after all, I'll be spending my own money then [my heart bleeds].

There's nothing to be afraid of. At least now I can see the readership numbers and know roughly how many readers I have.

If the number of readers isn't particularly high, then an unlimited bounty probably isn't a huge issue, right?

Also, to avoid people saying, "Hey, why is the price so high? The author is scamming us," I should explain the charging rules for Ciweimao.

The word count for a chapter is calculated based on the total words. [PS doesn't count towards the word count and is limited to 500 words]. For every thousand words, the normal subscription price is 5 cat biscuits. Of course, with Diamond VIP, it can be reduced to 3.

Then, for word counts that aren't exact thousands, the remaining words from 1-499 are free. If the remaining words are 500-999, then the charge for those extra words is 2 cat biscuits, which is 2.5 for less than half.

So, if the word count is high, it means this chapter has a lot of words, and the author's pricing can only be determined by writing more.

I won't say anything else. There's nothing else to say.

Everyone, see you tomorrow.

Siegfried, who took the Honkai Energy blast head-on, was, of course...

...unharmed.

Siegfried, having already sensed something was wrong, had taken protective measures immediately.

Even though Siegfried's current strength was far from his peak, he was still the strongest of the Kaslana lineage.

With strong Honkai Energy Adaptability, Siegfried couldn't possibly be turned into a Meele by Honkai Energy just because his strength was weakened.

However, even though Siegfried blocked the initial impact, he still felt a severe headache.

"Hah... that coward."

Amidst the dust, the girl named Raiden Mei slowly floated into the air.

"She's been in a state of worry and fear... Heh, I'll praise her a bit for lasting this long."

But now, looking at the wings of lightning slowly appearing behind Raiden Mei, Siegfried, no matter how optimistic his personality, couldn't smile anymore.

At this moment, the despair and unease on Raiden Mei's face had completely vanished.

But at the same time, Siegfried saw a familiar expression on his old friend's daughter's face, one he had seen on others before.

Aloof disdain, disgust for all things in the world, coupled with an extremely confident smile...

The expression on Mei's face now was no different from Sirin during her second appearance.

Moreover, as a powerful Honkai Energy warrior, Siegfried could naturally judge an opponent's strength by sensing their Honkai Energy intensity.

He couldn't precisely determine if Mei's Honkai Energy intensity after this Honkai outbreak was 2000 HW or higher, but the problem was—her current Honkai Energy intensity was no longer below Sirin's when she fought Welt.

Damn it, Mei, who had the gem implanted early, also adapted to this Herrscher core early.

For this reason, her strength upon awakening had already reached the average level of a Herrscher... Hmm, wait?

Glancing around with his peripheral vision, Siegfried found that the situation wasn't as dire as he thought.

The original Siegfried, upon confirming the Herrscher's awakening, believed the unfortunate civilians of Changkong City were doomed.

But now, the surrounding objects told Siegfried that he could still be a bit more optimistic regarding the safety of the civilians.

It was true that the surrounding buildings were blown away, and the unfortunate staff at the gas station were instantly annihilated.

However, apart from these surrounding people and objects, the buildings further away were surprisingly intact?

The powerful Honkai Energy blast, which could have instantly killed a city's population, was now contained within this area.

But the Honkai Energy diffusion speed in other areas wasn't as fast as Siegfried had imagined.

The factory not far away was also destroyed, but I noticed when I came here that there weren't many people inside.

And according to this diffusion speed... Hey, there's still a fight to be had!

Staring at Mei before him, Siegfried silently took out his Flame-Chaser's Judgment and held it in his hand.

"Oh? Interesting."

Looking at the weapon in Siegfried's hand, the Herrscher of Thunder's gaze towards her enemy became laced with amusement.

"A Herrscher core... If I recall correctly, Flame shouldn't have awakened yet."

"To actually turn the core God bestowed upon us into a weapon, humans, you are truly interesting."

Very good.

The Honkai Energy wasn't spreading that fast, probably because Mei wasn't completely despairing yet and was still preventing it within the Herrscher of Thunder's body.

And the Herrscher of Thunder didn't know about me or the Flame-Chaser's Judgment. She was even carelessly not launching a preemptive strike right now.

Recalling how Sirin had immediately attacked him with Void Spear upon seeing him, Siegfried truly felt that the Herrscher of Thunder before him... seemed unexpectedly gentle?

Mei was suppressing the power of the Herrscher core, preventing the large-scale Honkai from spreading at its fastest.

So now, as long as I can knock her out, giving Mei a chance to regain control of her body, then the remaining Honkai Energy...

"You dare get distracted?"

Looking at the man before her, the Herrscher of Thunder's expression suddenly changed.

Then, with a gentle snap of her fingers, a bolt of lightning descended directly from the sky, striking Siegfried's location.

"Wow, so scary, so scary."

Siegfried, who had long sensed the flow of Honkai Energy, certainly wasn't foolish enough to stay put and get struck by lightning.

After a roll, he easily dodged the attack.

While Herrschers are terrifyingly powerful beings, they are still just humans before they awaken.

Even Sirin, who possessed the six cores at the time, forgot to use the Herrscher of the Void's authority to transfer herself when I, who had awakened the [Power of Salvation], pursued her. She was ultimately defeated by me on the spot.

In other words, their biggest flaws lie in their arrogant personalities and their almost blank slate of combat experience…

Damn it, I'm so pissed.

If Otto hadn't sent people to provoke Kiana back then, things would be much easier for me now if I had two hands.

Siegfried, aiming Flame-Chaser's Judgment at the Herrscher of Thunder, pulled the trigger with a wicked grin.

"But an attack of this level can't kill me, Mei."

"Hmph, how boring."

Facing the bombardment of Flame-Chaser's Judgment, the Herrscher of Thunder didn't even intend to dodge.

Herrschers all come with Honkai Energy shields, but the nature of these shields varies depending on the authority they control.

As a true Apostle of God, the Herrscher of Thunder naturally possessed this ability.

It was precisely because of this that she so arrogantly chose not to dodge and tanked the attack head-on.
