Being Their Hero, in Honkai Impact 3rd Author: Golden Forest

Bai Ge had accidentally traveled to the world of Honkai Impact 3rd, determined to save every tragedy.

The Final Lesson would never come.

Every Flame Chaser would survive.

Honkai would be trampled beneath humanity's feet.

He would turn this imperfect world into the way he wanted it to be.

However...

Kiana: "With Bai Ge around, it's like having the strength of ten thousand people!"

Bronya: "Today, you're going to the beach with Bronya and Seele, Bai Ge Dad."

Raiden Mei: "I was clearly here first! I'm Bai Ge's first girlfriend!"

Elysia: "I may be the end, and you may be the beginning. Mei may have been first, but the Pink Fairy Lady is Bai Ge's ultimate destination!"

Bai Ge: "...Compared to crossing a love triangle battlefield, I think crossing Finality would be easier."

First Arrival in the World of Honkai Impact 3rd

Captain on the bridge.

"Huh? Didn't I die?"

Opening his tightly shut eyes, Bai Ge looked around in confusion.

He found himself standing atop a high-rise building. Before him lay an unfamiliar city, along with countless stars scattered across the night sky.

"Oh, looks like I got isekai'd."

It took him only five seconds to understand and accept his situation.

With his hands on his hips, he thought to himself, As expected of me.

As for how he had come to this world, the process had actually been simple.

While Bai Ge had been on his way home, he saw a speeding bus while crossing the street. It arrogantly ignored both the traffic lights above and the police officer nearby.

Bai Ge, who had been on the crosswalk, instinctively tried to dodge. Then he noticed an adorable little girl directly in the bus's path, and at that moment, he heard the anguished cry of a woman behind him.

So Bai Ge instinctively stopped, turned around, grabbed the little girl, and threw her away.

Then everything went black. In his haze, he vaguely heard someone say, "Captain on the bridge," and then he woke up like this.

"So the urban legend that bus accidents send people to another world was real after all. Then there should be a standard-issue system too, right? System, system, it's time to clock in."

Modern transmigrators really were familiar with the process. At your service, Host.

A screen of light appeared in Bai Ge's field of vision, and a system with a little girl's voice appeared.

"Of course. I think it's about time you updated your version too. Such a cliché method of transmigration... how should I put it? It's completely unsurprising."

Fine. Your feedback has been received.

"Good. First, tell me where I've transmigrated to."

Certainly. This is the Honkai world.

"Uh, Honkai Impact 2nd or Honkai Impact 3rd?"

Honkai Impact 3rd.

Hearing that from the system, Bai Ge breathed a sigh of relief.

"Thank goodness, Honkai Impact 3rd is still playable. If it were Honkai Impact 2nd, where dying together counts as a happy ending, I'd rather not have transmigrated at all."

Though the difficulty had only dropped from hell to hard mode. After all, men had it especially rough in the Honkai world. Setting everything else aside, not having Honkai Energy adaptability alone was fatal.

But as a rookie transmigrator just starting out, Bai Ge was still excited and energized. After questioning his system for a while, he got a clear grasp of the situation.

First, it was now 2014, right before the Third Honkai Eruption.

Second, this city was called Changkong City. Well, that made things even more outrageous.

In the story of Honkai Impact 3rd, this was the absurdly overpowered map where the Herrscher of Thunder, the Herrscher of the Void, Quasi Herrscher Yae Sakura, Quasi Herrscher Yunna, the Previous Era's Herrscher of the Void, and the Herrscher of Corruption had all emerged!

Bai Ge: "The Changkong stage is open—if you want to become a Herrscher, come on over. I'm dying."

System: Please prepare yourself, Host. There is very little time remaining until the Third Honkai Eruption occurs.

Bai Ge: "All right, then where's my beginner's gift pack? Hurry up and give it to me. I can't wait anymore. Am I directly becoming the Herrscher of Finality, or will it be a Mechanical Deus?"

System: ...This system is currently loading. Current progress: 1%. The beginner's gift pack cannot be issued yet. Also, Host, you're dreaming if you think things will be that good. (Duck Duck face)

Looking at the progress bar on the system interface, which was indeed increasing but barely moving due to the massive installation package, Bai Ge blinked and revealed a surprised expression.

"Huh? There isn't one? Aren't all the other novels written like that? You rise to the top in one step and steamroll everything. Why is mine so low-budget? One-star review!"

Hehe. Come back after you find the complaint button. And don't take those wish-fulfillment novel plots seriously. Life has to be taken one step at a time. Work hard, Host.

"Work hard for what? I didn't possess someone's body. I don't even have a legal identity in this world. Even if I wanted to change the plot, it'd be difficult."

Bai Ge could not help complaining. This system would not even give him any cheats, making him seriously doubt whether it was some cheap knockoff product.

Was he supposed to change the plot of Honkai Impact with the body of an ordinary person who did not even have a legal identity?

That was way too hellish!

Not to mention, the day after Bai Ge came into contact with Tuna Kiana, that Schicksal Overseer, Mr. Green Otto—the terminally paranoid man who wore the green hat high in both fanworks and official canon—would probably immediately send someone to invite this suspicious individual in for tea.

No, wait. It was more likely that he would be killed outright. Bai Ge knew his own limits. Right now, he was not worth the attention of that Kallen superfan.

"Please do not worry, Host. Emergency measures have been activated. A legal identity has been created for you in this world. You have two options."

"Oh? I get to choose?"

Bai Ge eagerly looked at the options.

Option One: A second-year transfer student at Senba Academy High School. Both parents deceased, with a car and a house, and a considerable inheritance.

Option Two: An ordinary person whose parents are both deceased, with a car and a house, as well as enough wealth for you to lie flat for the rest of your life.

Which option will you choose, Host? This system recommends the second option. It can ensure that you spend your entire life eating, drinking, and waiting to die without worries. After all, even if you do nothing in this world, you will eventually reach a happy ending.

As for Honkai and the Stigmata Project, Kiana Great Sage will naturally stop Succubus Kevin and seal away Honkai.

"..."

The corner of Bai Ge's eye twitched violently. He felt like there were countless things he wanted to complain about.

Were transmigrators really a high-level profession cursed to kill their parents? Whether in his previous life or this one, both the first and second options left him parentless.

In the end, Bai Ge shook his head speechlessly and placed his hand over the first option.

"I choose the first one, System."

I will ask one more time. Are you sure? As your system, I must remind you that this is not a wish-fulfillment system that can let you instantly crush heaven, earth, and air, punch Otto, and kick Kevin. In the end, the only one you can rely on is yourself. This means that... if you refuse the easy path and insist on participating in the main storyline of the Honkai world, you will face an extremely high risk of death, and—

"All right, all right, stop talking. I understand. Even if I choose to do nothing and don't change the plot, the protagonists of Honkai Impact 3rd will still save the world in the end. So whether I'm here or not doesn't matter."

Bai Ge smiled toward the distant horizon. The cool breeze lifted his hair as the young man looked at this world with eyes that seemed to shine.

"I know I'm just an ordinary person, but I'm tired of living an ordinary life."

"Since I've finally transmigrated to another world, I want to live a more interesting and meaningful life."

"After all, the value of a person's life does not lie in its length, but in whether the journey is brilliant."

Because he had been an ordinary person in his previous life, he longed to become something less ordinary in this one. Bai Ge wanted to do something that only he could do.

And as a captain of Honkai Impact 3rd...

Of course Bai Ge wanted to take part in the story. He also wanted to shout, like that Tuna, "Fight for all that is beautiful in the world!"

After all, while Honkai Impact 3rd ended happily, Bai Ge knew there were still countless regrets, sorrows, and unresolved feelings along the way!

So many characters he loved had been killed off by those detestable miHoYo writers!

Now that Bai Ge had the chance to change things, he could finally stop being a wise-guy janitor who could only do the splits in midair and shout, "I can't do anything," through the screen whenever he watched a tragedy unfold.

Since he had been given the chance to fight fate—the writers—was there any reason to hesitate?

"System, come on. I choose the first option. This time, I'll turn this imperfect world into the way I want it to be too!!"

The moment Bai Ge spoke those words, a ray of dawn appeared on the distant horizon.

It was the first light to shine into the night, signaling that the darkness was about to end and dawn was arriving.

The white-haired, golden-eyed youth stood atop the high-rise, so innocent and confident. Laughing, he spread his arms as though he wanted to embrace the city.

...As you wish, Host.

First update. New book, please bookmark it and send flowers.
