A Person in Honkai: Star Rail, a Healer

Masked little blacks appeared all around.

"Aha?"

The little blacks didn't answer, but swarmed Lin Nai, attacking.

"So that's how it is, Aha must have made them... minions?" Lin Nai dodged to the side, kicking one flying away.

Gazing at the faint light spot not far away.

Lin Nai understood.

As long as he could reach that place!

He could fully enter Asta's dream!

If that's the case...

"Vertical Guillotine!"

Lin Nai crossed his hands in front of his chest, then extended his right hand upwards and his left hand downwards, unleashing a vertical crescent-shaped blade of light!

The blade flashed and disappeared.

Several little blacks were cut in half, turning into nothingness and vanishing from here.

A weapon appeared in the hand of a little black.

Wielding a large saber, it let out a cackling laugh and launched a surprise attack.

Lin Nai retreated, kicking the little black's hand, causing it to become stunned.

A golden wheel of light gathered in his hand and directly struck the little black's neck.

Sizzle sizzle—

After making one little black act separately, Lin Nai turned and threw the Disc Blade, then used Vertical Guillotine to deal with several more little blacks.

Under Lin Nai's almost unrivaled combat prowess.

The little blacks quickly disappeared.

This also made Lin Nai breathe a sigh of relief. Next, he needed to head towards... huh?

Lin Nai sensed a shadow looming over him from behind. He looked back to see black mist gathering into a giant little black, adorned with various clown masks.

"..." Lin Nai felt a headache coming on. This thing just wouldn't stop, would it?

[Random Item: Player Driver]

"Hooray! I can transform now!"

Lin Nai said, playing along.

He had a new toy to play with.

But it was best to finish this quickly; now wasn't the time for playing.

Watching the little black swing a club, he quickly rolled forward to avoid the attack and placed the Driver on his waist.

A belt extended out.

Lin Nai didn't need to undergo the so-called suitability surgery, nor was he the first case.

So he didn't have to worry about anyone saying that famous line to him.

"But which cassette should I use?"

Lin Nai looked at the pink and white cassettes in his hand, appearing a little conflicted.

Without looking at the little black behind him, Lin Nai stood up and took a step to the left, dodging another attack.

"Forget it, I'll use this one!" Lin Nai picked up the white cassette and lightly pressed the button: "This isn't reality, so there shouldn't be any problems, right?"

"Mighty Creator VRX!"

"What was that line again? The patient's fate is decided by me... Great Transformation!"

"Gachan!"

"Level Up! Power of Creation! Get Make! Future Gamer! Mighty Creator VRX!"

Lin Nai touched the hem of his skirt behind him, then touched his mask, pondering for a few seconds.

Never mind.

It didn't matter.

Pulling out the cassette, Lin Nai drew a circle in front of him, acting as a shield to block the little black's attack.

Immediately after.

Dancing his hands like a conductor in a performance.

Rockets were drawn one by one, bombarding the little black and forcing it to retreat repeatedly.

"Speaking of which, can I play like this too?"

Lin Nai thought of something, leaped up, and used his flight ability along with the acceleration ability called Gauss Acceleration to start drawing in the air.

Blue body, white arms and legs, a crimson shield and sword… was something missing?

"Ah, just a few more details!"

Lin Nai held a cassette and quickly made modifications to the painting in front of them.

A robot appeared in the sky.

RX-78 Unit 2.

"I will sortie in my Gundam form!" Lin Nai sat inside the cockpit. "This is the end! One life clear!"

They inserted the cassette into the special attack slot on their waist and pressed the button.

The special attack sound effect played!

"Kamiwaza! Mighty Critical Strike!"

Gripping the control sticks with both hands, Lin Nai controlled the Gundam and unleashed a decisive blow against the small black figure before them!

They swooped down with a lightsaber!

A fatal blow!

The giant black figure split in two and completely dissipated.

[Game Clear!]

Chapter 21 - Topaz: Your First Kiss Wasn't With Asta!

Passing through the light gate.

Lin Nai's vision flashed, and they couldn't help but close their eyes.

After a long while.

Hearing nearby sounds.

Lin Nai opened their eyes and found Asta standing in front of them.

"Asta!"

"I'm here, what's wrong, Lin Nai?" Asta reached out and gently adjusted Lin Nai's collar.

Lin Nai froze. "No, Asta, listen to me..."

"No, Lin Nai, you listen to me first."

"?"

"When we say goodbye, be happy, be happy, okay?"

"Huh?"

"Be happy! Be happy!" Asta smiled, their eyes filled with reluctance. "Your world..."

"Wait, wait, wait! What the hell is going on!"

Lin Nai abruptly interrupted Asta. This was getting weirder and weirder!

You're not going to say something like 'I can't live without you' later, are you?

"Asta! It's me! Lin Nai!"

"Of course, I know. Do you think you could be someone else?"

Asta tilted their head in surprise. What kind of dream was this?

Was the Lin Nai in the dream an idiot?

Just then, a black car drifted to a stop beside the two of them.

Topaz got out of the car.

"Aha?"

"What 'Aha'?" Topaz raised an eyebrow, looking confused. "But never mind."

Then Topaz reached out, grabbed Lin Nai by the collar, and kissed them fiercely.

Lin Nai: ???

"!!!"

Asta's pupils constricted.

Topaz let go, licked their lips with lingering satisfaction, and asked, "Did you kiss Asta?"

"Not yet, right? Your first kiss wasn't with Asta! It was with ko no Topaz da!!"

"Topaz!!" Asta glared at the person in front of them, gritting their teeth.

But then.

Before Lin Nai could even react, they found themselves pinned to the ground by Asta.

"Asta?!"

"You can't be defiled! Lin Nai! Wash your mouth with cement quickly!!"

"No! Who would want that! Besides, this is just a dream! It's not real!!!"

Lin Nai pushed himself up from the ground, complaining, "Asta! Calm down!"

"...Is that so?"

"Besides, Topaz did it, so why are you making me wash my mouth out with cement!"

"Because I haven't kissed you yet?"

Lin Nai: ???

"Let's not even talk about the fact that you still can't kiss me even after using cement, but... why would you even imagine something like that?"

Lin Nai slumped onto the ground, feeling like he had a whole reservoir of complaints with nowhere to go after just a few minutes.

"...Asta, what on earth did you go through in your dreams to become like this."

"Nothing much." Asta squatted down and poked Lin Nai, "So, you're the real Lin Nai, right?"

"You can tell?"

"The Lin Nai in my dreams wouldn't resist, they'd just let me or others do whatever they wanted."

At first, Asta didn't think it was possible.

But on second thought.

If it were Lin Nai, it wouldn't be strange for him to do anything.

Even if he appeared in her dreams.

She would always believe in him.
