Bronya: The Truth Is Only Within the Range of the Cannons!

However...

(What?! The headquarters was actually...!)

Otto's eyes widened as he saw the floor and ceiling crack simultaneously, and waves of flame swept down from above.

The next second, the floor he was on collapsed downwards. This floor, which should have been unable to see the sun, now revealed blue sky and white clouds, and... flames stretching from the end of the sky!

The Floating Island of the Schicksal Headquarters.

It was cleaved in two by a sword strike from 9,700 kilometers away!

"..."

Otto stared blankly at the scene, his hands hanging limply at his sides. The terrifying intimidation brought by this absolute violence had been deeply imprinted on his soul through his eyes.

Ultimately, the sky island, split in two by Schicksal, crashed.

Fortunately, the Mediterranean Sea lies below, so the only consequence was a tsunami that caused some damage to the surrounding area and the inevitable decline of Otto.

"Phew~ I've finally vented my anger!"

In the Far East region of St. Freya.

Bai Ge exhaled and put down the Greatsword of Annihilation.

That last attack was his full strength so far.

The dual-core Herrscher Authority, combined with the resonance of the Herrscher Core of Flame cores on the Heavenly Fire Holy Judgment and the Void Archives, allow fire to fuel the wind while maximizing the Honkai Energy output of the five Herrscher cores.

A sword strike spanning a full 9,700 kilometers! Unstoppable except by the Finality! Even the Asura Kevin wouldn't dare to take it head-on!

"... It seems like we've gone a bit too far."

Bai Ge glanced at the Heavenly Flame Road stretching to the horizon, then at the Heavenly Fire Holy Judgment in his hand, which had transformed back into its dual-gun form and was now riddled with cracks and emitting smoke.

Clearly, that attack had exceeded the limits of this God Keys, but fortunately, the Soul Steel from the Previous Civilization was a nanotechnology metal with a certain degree of self-repair capabilities.

It won't be long before it can be used again.

"That shill will surely learn his lesson this time."

Bai Ge touched his chest.

The previous injuries have now completely healed.

In fact, if the [God-Slaying Spear] hadn't also suppressed his physical abilities, preventing him from fully utilizing the power of the Herrscher of Life and Death, he would have recovered in just one or two minutes.

Even if his heart is destroyed or his body is almost severed, as long as his head is not destroyed and he dies immediately, he can regenerate quickly even if half of his body is gone.

"Bai Ge, I'm so glad you're alright!"

Mei immediately rushed over and hugged the White Youth tightly, as if afraid he would disappear from her sight again.

Only after experiencing loss do people realize how important the other person truly is to them.

At this moment, she understood perfectly.

For Raiden Mei.

Bai Ge is her whole world!

"Cough cough, Mei, your horn..."

Bai Ge patted the girl in his arms with a wry smile.

Seeing Mei panic and Mei tears because of him, he was indeed incredibly moved and happy, and his love for Mei rose to a new level.

But... those oni horns that he loved so much could really hurt if they poked someone.

"Oh, I'm sorry."

Mei quickly leaned back and moved her head away.

"It's alright, Mei, you were worried about me, weren't you? Thank you."

"Bai Ge..."

They looked into each other's eyes and then kissed.

Bai Ge savored this wonderful moment.

But they soon parted ways, reluctant to part.

Because he knew there was something more important waiting for him to deal with: a young girl who had fallen into despair because of him was waiting for him to save her!

But before that...

"Rita, come here for a moment."

"Bai Ge... Master..."

After landing, Bai Ge waved to Rita.

Rita trembled and lowered her head in shame, but still walked towards Bai Ge step by step.

He looked like a condemned prisoner walking to the guillotine.

But she will not choose to run away, because Rita knows perfectly well that she has committed an unforgivable sin.

Regardless of whether the reason was the backdoor program in the armor, her hands were indeed stained with the White Youth's blood.

"... I have no words to defend myself. Rita has betrayed your trust. I... I'm so sorry, really, so sorry, Lord Bai Ge, I really..."

"Alright, now I've removed the back door from your armor. Eh~ I didn't expect there to be such a thing. This was indeed an oversight. It seems I'll have to check all the remaining armors in the academy after (Noreha) is over."

"Eh? Lord Bai Ge..."

The expected blame and indifference did not occur.

Rita looked up and stared blankly at Bai Ge.

He was using the power of the Herrscher of Reason to analyze his own armor and directly delete the backdoor program, without mentioning his "betrayal" at all.

Even the way he looked at Rita didn't change at all.

As gentle as ever

Trust remains unchanged.

At this moment, just Bai Ge's gaze moved Rita deeply, yet she felt unworthy of such kindness.

"Everyone makes mistakes sometimes, and besides, it wasn't Rita's fault this time, so don't worry about it."

"But no matter the reason, I..."

"You are my good maid."

Before Rita could finish speaking, Bai Ge interrupted her.

However, just as he was about to say something more to comfort the girl...

Boom--!

A huge commotion came from the direction of the academy in the distance.

Bai Ge's eyes narrowed as he sensed several familiar auras/ Honkai Energy. He immediately knew that it was time for him, the protagonist, to make his appearance.

"It seems that things are urgent over there, but that's probably the last bit of trouble."

So he only had time to give the maid in front of him a tight hug and kiss Rita on the forehead before saying "I will."

"Ugh~ Today was quite a commotion. I'm starving, and I bet Kiana is too, so... you'll have to prepare dinner tonight, Rita. I want some meat!"

Solving household problems is the homeowner's job.

The maid's job is to take care of her master's life, especially to prepare sumptuous and delicious meals.

Rita looked up in astonishment at Bai Ge, who was smiling at her. Tears welled up in her eyes again, and she quickly wiped them away, blurring her vision, and said softly.

"Yes, Lord Bai Ge, I will prepare everything for Rita for you tonight."

Third update. Please give me flowers, votes, and tips.

Fifteen minutes before Bai Ge woke up.

St. Freya Academy has become a den of thieves

The Queen of Honkai is announcing her arrival to the world!

"Humans, your very existence is a mistake!"

The Herrscher of the Void looked down upon everything, like a high and mighty, world-weary goddess.

"War, deception, jealousy, greed—you have caused him to lose everything!"

But today, I will devour everything!

"Because I am the Herrscher of the Void!"

"Because of me, I am Honkai!"

The proceedings concluded with the Queen's announcement.

The next second, countless black-and-gold-edged spatial portals opened, and one after another, Temple-Class Honkai Beast poured out from them.
