Cat Car, launch! (cont.)

Hearing Sirin's 'magnanimous' words, Kiana said irritably.

"If you're going to go crazy, go find Otto. What kind of skill is it to bully other innocent members of Schicksal and Anti-Entropy?"

"If you're going crazy, I'm too lazy to keep playing along. Anyway, now..."

"Go play by yourself!"

Seeing Kiana fly away in her Light Wings, Sirin paused for a second before gritting her teeth and chasing after her.

"You cowardly imposter! You don't even dare to fight head-on!"

"Forget it, you're more capable than me, why should I take the loss and fight you head-on?"

After saying that, Kiana turned around and made a face at Sirin without saying another word.

"And you have the nerve to say that to me."

"Why don't you dare go find Otto? Are you afraid you can't beat him, ruaruarua!"

Hearing Kiana's taunts, Sirin felt her blood pressure spike.

"Okay, I'll go find Otto."

"Once I get my body back, I'll definitely settle the score with him right away!"

Oh no, this is bad.

Seeing Sirin suddenly become enraged, Kiana felt that she might have gone a bit too far with her mockery.

Although the two sides are still maintaining a certain distance, Kiana, who is rushing ahead, will definitely not be able to turn around and fight back in time when facing Sirin, who is chasing her from behind and can attack at any time with the Key of Void.

Moreover, even if they retaliate, the opponent can use Imaginary Shield to block the bullets directly.

Ugh, why did things turn out like this?

What is this—am I killing myself?

At this moment, Kiana recalled that day months ago with immense sorrow.

On that day, Kiana, being hunted by Stan, felt powerless, and then...

— Lin Yu fell from the sky and punched Stan into a docile kitten.

Now, after several months and becoming much stronger, she is still just like before, being chased by enemies while waiting for reinforcements to come to her rescue.

Then, Kiana suddenly saw a... companion?

There's more than one!

After realizing she was hallucinating, Kiana rubbed her eyes as Kiana sprinted forward.

Before her, Stan, in his Honkai Beast form, was running at full speed.

If Kiana hadn't seen the person on Stan, she might have even thought that she was Stan because she was too nervous and recalled what happened that night.

However, the person who appeared with Stan undoubtedly made Kiana realize the truth.

This is definitely Stan.

But the question is—why did Stan and Xiao Yi suddenly appear here!

"Ah, it's Mom!"

Upon seeing Kiana being chased and Sirin chasing Kiana, Lin Yi immediately waved to the two of them.

"Mom, I'm here!"

Upon seeing their daughter suddenly appear before them, both Kiana, who was initially extremely flustered, and Sirin, who was filled with murderous intent, stopped in their tracks simultaneously.

As the unluckiest member of the family in this area, Stan felt...

Ah, three Herrscher- level reactions.

Can I faint?

I feel like I'm bearing pressure that a cat shouldn't have to bear.

Boss, where are you? This scene is terrifying!!!

"You..."

Looking at Lin Yi, who was now smiling, Sirin said with a complicated expression.

"You still consider me your mother?"

"Hey, Mom, what are you saying?"

Seeing Sirin's complicated expression, Lin Yi looked at the two people with the same appearance except for their eye color and temperament.

"Whether Mom's Kiana or Sirin, they Mom."

"... Good boy."

Looking at her daughter, Sirin felt the anger in her heart suddenly dissipate a bit.

But at that moment, she felt many images that she didn't want to recall suddenly surface in her mind.

Fourteen years ago, Sirin, who had been lured to the Tower of Babylon Tower, pleaded with the researchers to spare her and her companions.

However, at the time, those researchers were laughing and talking about things like Stigmata, Valkyrie, and Glory, and they injected Honkai Energy into her body, causing her and her fellow orphans to die in the Babylon Tower.

Hatred.

How could I possibly forget this hatred!

Kiana, who had just breathed a sigh of relief, immediately stepped in front of Lin Yi after sensing an even more terrifying killing intent emanating from Sirin.

"Xiao Yi, be careful!"

"Uh, but..."

"Ah, that's right."

At this moment, Sirin looked at 'herself' and her daughter in front of her, and suddenly smiled at Lin Yi and said.

"You really should watch out for me, my dear daughter."

"Come to Mom's side, Mom will take good care of you."

"But..."

Seeing Lin Yi's hesitant expression, Sirin said coldly.

"No buts!"

"Do you want to be a bad child who doesn't listen to his Mom?!"

"But, Mom, the way you look now..."

After a slight pause, Lin Yi still managed to refrain from saying, "You look terrifying right now," demonstrating remarkable emotional intelligence.

"Never mind, these things aren't important!"

After forcibly changing the subject, Lin Yi spoke to Sirin in a gentle tone.

"Mom, no matter what, you and Kiana should be the closest people to Mom."

"Otto is the real enemy, isn't he? Why should we fight amongst ourselves, only to end up hurting our own people and pleasing our enemies?"

"Oh... daughter, you're being naughty."

Hearing Lin Yi's words, Sirin said with a cold smile.

"What happened after you defeated Otto?"

"After..."

After thinking for a moment, Lin Yi spoke decisively.

"I'm just a kid, I don't understand all these things. We'll talk about the rest later!"

"Xiao Yi, you are really smart."

As she listened to Lin Yi's speech, the smile on Sirin's face gradually disappeared.

"Knowing that the situation was not right, they wanted to appease me first, so they used 'these are not important' to change the subject. Then, when faced with the most crucial question, they directly chose to pretend to be stupid by saying 'I am a child and I don't understand.'"

"If you were just an ordinary child, I probably wouldn't think so much, but..."

"You not only have my bloodline, but also Lin Yu's bloodline."

At that moment, Sirin suddenly pointed at Kiana.

"That cunning man had deceived this girl in the past, and even used the tactic of changing the subject to forcibly pull her back from the brink of despair."

"Even I have to admit that the man's mind is indeed much more powerful than mine."

"And as that man's blood relative, you naturally inherited his good qualities—this is evident from the fact that you can usually help that white-haired idiot Theresa with her official duties."

Oh no, it's broken.

After having her inner thoughts completely exposed, Lin Yi wanted to calmly say, "Mom, you're overthinking it."

However, no matter how smart she is, she is still a child. Her ability to manage her expressions is far inferior to Lin Yu's, and she does not have the Mirror Mind and composed nature of Lin Yi. No matter how hard she tries, Sirin can still see through her inner panic.

"Very good, very good."

After realizing that she was right, Sirin suddenly clapped her hands.

"After my mother died, Schicksal took away my life and my friends. After being given power by God, I was killed again."

"And now, after I have been resurrected and have a daughter, my daughter has betrayed me without hesitation."

"Xiao Yi, I'm disappointed, but I'm also happy now..."

"—I can finally destroy this shitty world without holding back!"

"Meow (Kiana, what are you waiting for? Jump up here!)!!!"

Upon sensing the power emanating from Sirin, Stan immediately called out to Kiana.

Kiana couldn't fully understand Stan's meaning, but her intuition told her that if she didn't run now, things would get serious.

In an instant, Kiana, who had jumped onto Stan's body, immediately lay on Stan's back.

"Xiao Yi, hold on tight!"

"Stan, you... you have to hang in there."

"Meow (What do you want to do?)?"

Kiana, who had jumped onto Stan's back, unleashed the power of moonlight to its maximum and then suddenly began to compress the energy on her Light Wings.

Although Sirin is currently unable to use her Herrscher Authority, she is the weaker side in terms of combat strength compared to Kiana, Lin Yi, and Stan.

However, Kiana did not forget that Herrscher have an innate ability to suppress Honkai Beast, much like superior beings do to inferior beings, and to a certain extent, the power to manipulate their actions.

This power may be weakened because Stan is an artificial Honkai Beast, but even if it is weakened, this strong control ability is still very difficult to deal with in the current situation.

She didn't know whether Sirin was currently unable to use this ability or was simply too angry to notice it.

However, Kiana couldn't gamble with her daughter's safety, so for now, she could only compress the special particles on her Light Wings to the extreme and then unleash them in an explosive manner.

Of course, this method isn't very friendly to Stan, but now...

"Stan, I'm sorry, but I'll have my senior prepare the best cat bed and cat food for you after it's all done!"

After saying the words that terrified Stan, Kiana looked at Lin Yi had already created a chain safety belt using Honkai Energy, and felt completely relieved.

"Xiao Yi, sit tight, and then..."

" —Light Wings, unfold!"

Just as Sirin reached the vicinity of Stan, she was stunned once again when she saw the giant cat- Honkai Beast suddenly begin to charge forward at high speed.

Wait, what's with this speed?!

She created armor almost identical to Kiana's based on the flow of Honkai Energy.

However, even though this armor's capabilities are similar to those of White Knight: Moonlight, there are still some differences.

Of course, that's not the point.

The key point is that although Sirin also has Kiana's memories, having memories does not mean that she can instantly recreate the things that Kiana did in her memories.

Kiana actually worked very hard in the period before she awakened her Herrscher powers.

Kiana, who was diligently training herself, naturally also took the time to explore the characteristics of White Knight: Moonlight.
