Thousand-Person Ruler's Personal Opinions Chapter 3

The dark emotions inherent to a Herrscher, combined with the memories and feelings of high schooler Anqi being bullied, had undoubtedly made the current Anqi much colder. But in the end, neither the transmigrated Anqi nor the original high schooler Anqi had ever killed anyone, let alone personally created this brutal scene that resembled an Asura's battlefield.

Anqi couldn't help but cover her nose and mouth. Though she didn't vomit, her heart still pounded uncontrollably, and she felt a strong sense of discomfort.

Just as Anqi was trying to adapt to the scene, gradually becoming accustomed to everything with incredible composure, her ear, brushed by her hair, twitched slightly. She heard an unusual movement from above.

"Target spotted! Surrender now!"

A clear and pleasant young girl's voice came from above, filled with righteous indignation, yet unable to hide the youthful vitality in her tone, like a justice-seeking maiden angered by injustice.

"Bang!"

Anqi only had time to look up. Before she could even see the person's appearance, she was pushed to the ground by a tremendous force.

"Ah!"

Anqi felt a pain in her body, and the girl's round, soft backside was now sitting on her back. Anqi's hands were restrained, and a delicate, fair leg was hooked tightly around her neck, almost touching her nose. The overwhelming scent of milk dispelled the strong smell of blood.

"Who... are you?"

"This young lady is Kiana Kaslana! You killed all these people, didn't you? Come with me obediently, and Schicksal will give you a fair trial!"

Kiana pressed down on Anqi's hair and said through gritted teeth—partly for the sake of the tragically dead civilians, and partly because she hadn't expected Anqi to struggle so forcefully. Even with the advantage of position, Kiana found it incredibly difficult.

Anqi panicked.

Why is she here? Did St. Freya notice me? Could it be that the main force has already surrounded me?

As the Thousand-Person Ruler, this situation was super bad!

Chapter 4: What She Didn't Expect!

Although it was bad, she smelled so good...

No, no, now is not the time to think about smells!

One Anqi's face was pressed against Kiana's legs, but a total of thirty Anqi were rapidly turning their brains.

It shouldn't be that my identity was leaked! If it had been, a large-scale elite force would have come to suppress me, not a rookie like Kiana who's only been here for less than half a year!

So, I can't reveal my Herrscher-related abilities.

The clones can't provide support.

I can't flash into the Theater of Domination to escape either.

And I definitely can't die! If I die, the Herrscher core will drop, and that would be a done deal!

I should try to escape using my physical abilities! If it's just Kiana, she might be acting alone on her own initiative, in which case escaping won't be too difficult!

Go, me!

It's not you who's locked up! Easy for you to say!

Anqi tried hard to break free, but Kiana gripped her wrists even tighter.

After half a minute of stalemate, Anqi suddenly and with difficulty turned her head back. Right in front of Kiana, as if seeing a comrade, she exclaimed with surprise:

"You're finally here! Hurry up and smash her head!"

"What!?"

Kiana exclaimed in shock and quickly turned her head to look behind her.

Then, a small sneaker rapidly enlarged before her eyes.

"Bang!"

Anqi used a back-kick, her slender waist and thighs displaying astonishing flexibility, and with all her might, she kicked Kiana in the face.

Even though my body is human, the one controlling it is the Herrscher of Domination! I knew I could do it!

Anqi was ecstatic. Taking advantage of Kiana's dazed state from the kick, she forcefully twisted her body, successfully rolling Kiana off her. Anqi also seized the opportunity to break free.

"Ouch! It hurts, it hurts!"

Kiana got up, clutching the shoe print on her face. She saw Anqi already running desperately towards the alley entrance.

"Damn it! What kind of flexibility is that? But don't think you can escape from this young lady!"

Kiana gave chase with renewed vigor, drawing a pistol from her embrace as she ran.

"Bang!"

A bullet shot towards Anqi's right leg.

The bullet from the standard Schicksal pistol traveled far faster than sound, but Anqi still perceived the threat with her inhuman instincts. Almost at the same moment the bullet was fired, Anqi stomped hard on the wall, launching herself into the air. In a flash, she stomped on the wall several more times, rapidly ascending. In the blink of an eye, she propelled herself to the roof of a building over ten meters high.

Beautiful! A perfect score!

Stop messing around and think of a solution! She's catching up again!

Anqi scolded her own frivolous thoughts and sprinted desperately across the rooftop.

Reaching the edge at high speed, Anqi jumped to another building roof about seven or eight meters below, without considering her fear of heights.

Like a swift horse leaping off a cliff, Anqi successfully made the jump and landed lightly.

Anqi took the opportunity to glance back. As expected, the silver-haired girl in the school uniform with a short skirt, like an elf from another world, also leaped down from the building—the only discordant note being the clear shoe print on her face.

"Pfft!"

Anqi couldn't help but let out a laugh, while continuing to flee with all her might.

"You still dare to laugh!?"

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

Kiana angrily raised her pistol and fired a rapid three-shot burst into the air, precisely aiming for Anqi's legs and body.

Kiana undoubtedly liked beautiful girls. Even without excessive ill intentions, she naturally showed extra leniency towards cute girls. Under normal circumstances, she wouldn't have opened fire on a delicate and exquisite girl like Anqi, who was like a doll. However, after witnessing the scene in the alley, Kiana could no longer see Anqi as a normal beautiful girl, but rather as a dangerous murderer.

Anqi glanced back, her keen senses catching the trajectory of the bullets.

Then, Kiana saw the slender, petite young girl perform a graceful front flip like a dancer, dodging the bullets, landing steadily, and then continuing to sprint at high speed.

"Don't run! Stop!"

'Only a fool wouldn't run!'

Anqi retorted in her mind, her gaze sweeping over the buildings ahead, trying to find a path to escape.

Fortunately, even a weak Thousand-Person Ruler was still a proper Herrscher. A single core was enough to strengthen a frail, delicate girl's body to surpass the average Valkyrie's level. So, even though Anqi had no experience herself, she still had a very high margin of error when it came to parkour on rooftops.

'If I keep this up, I can shake her off!'

Anqi executed a beautiful somersault, once again dodging the bullets fired from behind. After flipping over several buildings, she crashed into a half-finished building under development.

"Are you a wild monkey!?"

The impatient Kiana also smashed through a pile of construction scaffolding and entered the building.

She waved away the dust in front of her, but Anqi was nowhere to be seen.

"Up or down?"

Kiana ran to the stairwell. Looking down, she saw nothing. Looking up, she found the figure of Anqi rapidly climbing the stairs.

"Don't run!"

Kiana chased after her.

Tracking all the way to the rooftop, Kiana, holding her pistol, cautiously but quickly searched the entire rooftop, finding nothing.

"Did she jump off? Or is she hiding on some floor?"

Kiana hurriedly went to the edge and looked down all around, but still couldn't find Anqi. So, she decisively jumped onto the scaffolding on the edge of the building and descended floor by floor, visually searching each level.

While Kiana was frantically searching the building, higher in the air, on a suspended construction crane, Anqi hung with both hands on a steel baffle that could just block her body, peeking at Kiana's figure.

"Hoo~"

Anqi let out a long breath.

'Shook her off for now. But this place isn't safe for long... Don't go into the theater yet, I'm not sure if there are any prying eyes elsewhere.'

'That's right, the theater is the safest bet for survival right now, hiding it is the highest priority!'

'Then you guys should come up with another idea!'

'Just hang here for now. If Kiana can't find you, she might leave to search elsewhere! After all, based on our understanding of her intelligence, she shouldn't think you'd hide here!'

Anqi puffed out her cheeks in frustration.

Fortunately, her physical condition was very strong, so even hanging like this was effortless. Anqi felt she could last for several more days, so she could only accept this option.

Kiana soon reached the ground and, after a thorough search, naturally found nothing.

She stood on the road, holding her pistol, with her arms crossed, tilting her head in puzzlement.

"No way? She got away again? Which direction should I go next? Huh? That crane is so high, maybe I can spot my target from up there!"

Kiana's eyes lit up, and she quickly rushed towards the crane.

Anqi and the others had forgotten one thing.

While Kiana was indeed clueless at this stage, she was a European player.

Chapter 5: Friendship Forged Through All-Out Combat

Anqi watched helplessly as the white-haired girl rapidly approached the top of the crane like a monkey climbing a tree.

'...Didn't you say she wouldn't think of that?'

'Cough cough! Look on the bright side, maybe St. Freya Academy saw you with a satellite?'

'Then there's no escape!'

'Wait, is there a possibility that you can actually beat her?'

'...' ×30

The benefit of independent thought threads was immediately apparent.

Anqi had identified a blind spot in their thinking that the other Anqis had overlooked.

The struggle in the alley had already shown that in terms of physical quality, Anqi was actually a notch above Kiana. As for combat experience, while Anqi was a complete novice, how strong could Kiana be at this stage? Wasn't she also relying on brute force?

"Go get her!"

"That's right! If she's acting alone, we can just beat her and run. If it's a roundup from St. Freya Academy, then capturing her might give us a sliver of hope."

"Then let's go for it! It'll be a good way to get used to fighting!"

"Worst case scenario, we run if we can't win. Anyway, she's not very smart, so we'll have plenty of ways to trick her!"

The Anqis were fired up, eagerly urging the Anqi to attack.

The Anqi on the scene didn't have time to think much more, because Kiana was almost at the crane arm.

The crane arm of the tower crane was a narrow and sturdy steel frame, and on both sides of the ladder entrance to the tower crane was a narrow walkway paved with steel mesh and wooden boards, which was also almost the only path to walk on the crane arm.

Kiana had just climbed the ladder and hadn't even had time to catch her breath when the Anqi lunged at her waist.

"Bang!"

The two embraced on the narrow walkway, and during the scuffle, the Anqi found an opportunity to knock Kiana's pistol away.

"You're hiding here? Damn it, my gun!"

Kiana thrashed and kicked in frustration.

When did I, the great Kiana Kaslana, Schicksal's strongest Valkyrie (in training), ever suffer such indignity?

In her rage, Kiana's strength surged, and she finally kicked the Anqi flying.

Immediately after, the two stood panting and facing each other on the high-altitude walkway.

Both had bruises on their faces and their clothes were slightly torn, with glimpses of white skin peeking through.

Then, they both charged at each other.

"Ha!" x2
