Herrscher of the Void: This World Doesn't Deserve Him! (Continued)
"Grandmaster, should I release the Great Void Sword God?"
Li Sushang was about to take action as she spoke.
"No, the Sword God's power is too great."
Fu Hua immediately stopped her ultimate move.
Although the power of the Great Void Sword God is astonishing, too much power is also a bad thing. Their goal is not to defeat the Herrscher of the Void, but to render it powerless and then find a way to awaken Kiana's personality.
"How dare you! You dare to underestimate me!"
The Herrscher of the Void also overheard their conversation and was immediately furious. Although these people were more troublesome than she had anticipated, the Queen still believed she had the upper hand.
Fu Hua's earlier lenient remarks really stung her proud pride.
However, just as she was preparing to take further drastic measures and show them what the majesty of the Honkai Queen truly was.
Boom--!!
Destructive blasting bullets (bushi) rained down from the sky.
It struck right between the two, forcing Durandal and the Herrscher of the Void to stop and retreat simultaneously.
"Who goes there?!" x2
Both of them looked up at the sky at the same time.
A gigantic figure descended from the sky.
Its white dragon body, resembling knight's armor, unfolds with wings that seem capable of blotting out the sky, and possesses an aura that almost surpasses the realm of Judgment-Class Honkai Beast.
Resilient! Invincible! Strongest!
"The dragon Benares from Anti-Entropy?!"
"Oh? Benares? You've come at the perfect time!"
Because Welt only contacted Bai Ge, the others were unaware that Anti-Entropy had sent reinforcements. Valkyrie Valkyries, including Durandal, belonging to Schicksal, instinctively tensed up and became hostile.
In contrast, the Herrscher of the Void paused for a moment, then immediately revealed a look of delight. Wasn't this her Companion Honkai Beast? Perfect timing! It could help her wipe out these ants!
However, Benares was also completely bewildered at this moment.
Two people jumped off her dragon's back: Cecilia and Sirin, each holding Black Abyss White Flower.
"Wasn't it supposed to be a fight between Schicksal and St. Freya Academy? How did it turn into the arrival of Herrscher? And what's more, it's..."
"The Herrscher of the Void? How could it be the Herrscher of the Void!"
Sirin's eyes widened and her heart pounded.
"..."
While Cecilia and Sirin were shocked and confused, unsure of what to do, Benares flew towards the Herrscher of the Void the Void without hesitation.
The Herrscher of the Void was overjoyed to see this.
"Good, Benares! Come with me and kill all these humans!!"
"Roar--!"
This was followed by the Queen issuing her orders.
The white dragon's emotions instantly turned violent, and it started arguing.
Terrifying Honkai Energy coalesced in her mouth, representing the pinnacle and end of Judgment-Class Honkai Beast! Benares's current strength surpasses that of a true Herrscher!
"This is dangerous! People from Anti-Entropy, why did you bring trouble at this crucial moment?!"
Durandal's expression changed, and she was about to step forward to shield everyone from the dragon's breath.
However, the next second...
Something astonishing happened.
"Roar! Ro..."
"Benares, what are you doing!"
Just as Benares was about to unleash this Honkai Energy breath, it suddenly turned its dragon head and fired the terrifying attack towards the Herrscher of the Void.
The Herrscher of the Void was taken aback and, at the last moment, opened a portal and hid inside.
The next second she appeared in the air a hundred meters away, looking back with lingering fear at the place where she had just been, where a huge crater had appeared and the land had been turned into charcoal.
"Benares, how dare you betray me, betray the Honkai! I am your master!"
The Queen looked at her Herrscher attire; the few white ribbons at the hem had been obliterated.
If she hadn't dodged in time, she could easily imagine that she would have been killed instantly by that attack.
Benares's 'betrayal' enraged the Queen.
I've heard of Herrscher betraying Honkai, but I never imagined even Judgment-Class Honkai Beast would betray us now. Does the Honkai of this era have so many traitors among its subordinates? It's practically on par with a certain brewery!
"You are not my master."
Benares spoke in human language and, to everyone's astonishment, transformed from a white dragon into a human girl.
Long, azure hair, jewel-like blue eyes, delicate and well-proportioned features, a perfectly proportioned figure, wearing a white tank top-like garment, black hot pants, and white stockings. (A prison guard is looking at the picture.)
Her beautiful appearance made it impossible to associate her with the terrifying white dragon from before. Benares looked at the Herrscher of the Void of the Void with disappointment.
"I have never been loyal to the Honkai; I will always be loyal to my master, Bai Ge."
"Also, my name is Bella. My master would never call me Benares. You are definitely not him."
Bella spoke coldly to the Herrscher of the Void, her eyes filled with desolation.
This year marks the 15th anniversary, the day she and Bai Ge agreed to reunite. Just now, when she felt that familiar power, Bella's heart was filled with joy and excitement.
However...
What exactly is this thing in front of me?
Although she possessed the power Bella was familiar with, nothing else matched Bai Ge from her memories: a different appearance, a different gender, and a different will.
Requesting flowers?
There's no need to confirm anymore; this Herrscher of the Void is not the master Bella is waiting to reunite with, and her most beloved master is definitely not someone like her!
"Benares, do you know what you're saying?!"
"Imposter! My master would never utter such a foolish word as killing all of humanity! He is the kindest and most virtuous person in the world, and you are nothing but an imposter who has usurped his authority!"
Bella's eyes were now filled with hostility.
A blue wind howled around her, scorching fire clung to her palms, purple lightning flashed around her, and a dark, deathly mist spread beneath her feet.
Simulated Herrscher of Flame Core, Herrscher of Wind Core, Herrscher of Thunder Core, and Herrscher of Death Core— four in total —Simulated Core were hovering over her body.
Bella's posture stunned the girls who knew Bai Ge well, who felt that the two were very similar.
Bella reflects on her past.
In the beginning, she was a beast.
She was a mindless beast born from Bai Ge's awakening, and at that time she knew that her mission was to become the boy's protector and follower.
Bella: "My master has never seen himself as Herrscher. He has always seen himself as a human. Ah, if that's the case, I want to become a human too, to become the kind of person he likes."
"However, as if he had heard my wish, my master gave me his power, Simulated Core, a human body, and he even gave me a name, Bella."
Bella loves her owner the most.
Because Bai Ge said that she was also his family.
"Yes, my master never treated me as a servant, but as part of his family. At that moment, I made an eternal vow in my heart."
"I would become lightning, and swear by my life and honor, to protect him in the darkness of eternal night, whether he falls or not, I will silently guard him."
However
She broke her promise and failed to keep her vow.
Because of the fault of some despicable human being!
Her master faced a devastating rainstorm alone to protect everyone, including Bella.
Bella will never forget the pain of that day. She had sworn to be his shield, but she could do nothing and could only watch helplessly as Bai Ge burned his life to stop the missiles of Schicksal.
In the very end, she couldn't even participate in the battle for revenge, so Bai Ge hoped she could live.
That day, Bai Ge freed her from her shackles, allowing her to fly freely into the sky called the future, instead of accompanying him to his end because of the mission of the Companion Honkai Beast.
Bella defied his will for the first time.
She didn't want freedom, she didn't want a future, those things didn't matter to her. All she wanted was to stay by Bai Ge's side forever.
So Bai Ge made a promise to her.
A promise to meet again in the future.
