"Of course he wouldn't think that way! Because he's gentler than anyone else, no matter what dangers he encounters or what sorrows he suffers, he would never resent the world, but—he shouldn't have had to go through all of this!!"

The Queen's impassioned words drowned out Theresa's voice.

Recalling everything she had witnessed during this time, Bai Ge's sacrifice during the Second Honkai Eruption, and the pain that had befallen him again today, she felt so heartbroken that she could hardly breathe.

"Just like the name of this gemstone."

The Herrscher of the Void gripped her chest, clutching the Gem of Serenity through her own flesh, and gritted her teeth as she spoke.

"Bai Ge could have been the freest person in the world, just like the name of this gem! He could have gone anywhere he wanted, and no one could have hurt him!"

"But you have become the shackles that bind his wings! It's all your fault that his wings cannot fly freely!"

Tears also streamed down the face of the Herrscher of the Void.

She staggered to her feet, picked up the Spear of the Void from the ground, and slashed at the crowd in front of her with all her might.

Clang!

She first slashed at Sirin, who was closest to her, but the purple-haired girl, now an S-Rank Valkyrie, easily caught the attack, which had no technique and was purely driven by anger.

"You've finally grown up? If you hadn't been held hostage by Otto back then, he wouldn't have abandoned his core!"

"..."

Like a drunkard, Herrscher of the Void staggered and raised the Spear of the Void once more, aiming at Cecilia beside her.

"You too! If it weren't for saving your daughter, Bai Ge might have survived!"

"Sorry..."

"Hmph! And you too, everyone in this academy is a burden to him. This time, to protect you, he once again faced a Honkai Energy Fission Bomb!"

The Herrscher of the Void glared resentfully at everyone present.

Bai Ge himself has no weaknesses; he is so powerful that he cannot be harmed by anyone.

But these people became his weakness; they were the ones who caused the perfect Bai Ge to become imperfect!

"Is this the reason you resent me...?"

Everyone looked at the Herrscher of the Void with shame, feeling as if their hearts were being gripped by a giant hand, making it difficult to breathe.

Because what she said was not wrong.

Although they were proud of the bond between themselves and Bai Ge, the truth was that this bond became Bai Ge's weakness, causing him to fall into crisis time and time again.

"I must create a world where he will never be hurt by anything again. I will kill everyone who could become his weakness. As long as those unnecessary things are gone, Bai Ge will no longer be harmed..."

The Herrscher of the Void believes that Bai Ge is not dead.

She knew about the body's illusions, poisons, and rough makeup.

Moreover, even if he were to sacrifice himself again, she believed that Bai Ge would be able to be resurrected again in 15 years, just like during the Second Honkai Eruption.

Before that, she would destroy everything in the world that would hold him back, hurt him, and make him vulnerable and imperfect.

"Bai Ge wouldn't want you to do this."

"I know, but so what! This is my decision. In the end, it's just a one-sided love between me and him. What he thinks of me... doesn't matter!"

The Queen revealed a haughty smile.

Once upon a time, there was a Queen Raiden who decided to fight for all the good things in the world for Bai Ge.

Now, this Queen of the Void is determined to destroy this bleak world for the sake of Bai Ge!

This was a one-sided expression of love from her, requiring neither Bai Ge's consent nor anyone's permission.

After all, she's Herrscher who can destroy worlds!

"Even though you say that, you have already failed. Could you please return your body to Kiana?"

"... You! I'm going to kill you!"

"Uh, sorry."

The straightforward Fu Hua pointed out the reality that the Queen had already been defeated, which made the Herrscher of the Void so angry that her face turned red.

"Hmph! Fine, you don't seem to pose any threat. You're like a block of wood, so flat... I'll spare your life since you're so flat."

"Puff!"

Fu Hua felt as if she had been struck in the chest. The immortal pressed one hand against his tablet, feeling an urge to vomit blood.

Does this Herrscher of the Void actually have mental attacks?

The Immortal Crimson Crane glanced at everyone present, then lowered her head in self-consciousness and gradually lost her color.

He thought it was all the fault of the Hyper-Evolution Factor, or the Divine Sound, or the side effects of some kind of medicine that Mobius had given him in the past. Otherwise, how could he not grow any older in 50,000 years!

"... Regardless of your motives, you have already failed Herrscher of the Void today. Although you are twisted, I acknowledge your feelings for Bai Ge. But in any case, as Valkyrie, I will not let you destroy the world."

Durandal said with an upright expression.

She didn't quite understand these emotions and love, only feeling that they were too far removed from her own life. Now, Durandal's only thought was to protect humanity, defeat the Honkai, and then regain her past memories.

Because of an accident, she lost her memories before the age of eight. Logically speaking, someone like her wouldn't be too attached to the past, but would only stride forward without hesitation.

But for some reason, Durandal felt she had to regain her memories, a feeling she couldn't describe.

It was as if something important was hidden in that past, something she had to find—not her parents' identities, but something more special.

"Hmph! Don't think I'll give up now. I will definitely come back. As long as you don't kill this girl, I will stay inside her. One day I will destroy this unforgivable world for her!"

"If I could, I would prefer that you fall in love with this world for my sake."

Just as the Queen finished her harsh words and decided to give up her body, the White Youth's voice suddenly appeared.

"!!!" xN

Everyone turned around abruptly in the direction of the sound, only to see Bai Ge appear behind them at some point, looking at the Herrscher of the Void with a complicated expression.

"Bai Ge, are you alright?!"

"Yes, the regeneration is complete. By the way, didn't I tell everyone that I am still the Herrscher of Life and Death? It's almost impossible to kill me by ordinary means."

"Hmm, I think that's how it is..."

Upon hearing his words, Theresa and the others were stunned. The situation was too urgent and sudden, and under the immense shock, they momentarily forgot that Bai Ge was still the Herrscher of Life and Death.

I was both happy and a little embarrassed.

Bai Ge looked at everyone with a wry smile, then walked straight towards the Herrscher of the Void.

0.4

"Thank you for liking me, Herrscher of the Void."

"*#¥@!#%*@#"

The Queen, who had been so arrogant and domineering just moments before, seemed to have suddenly forgotten how to speak.

After all, although her love for Bai Ge was strong, extreme, and domineering, it was ultimately just a secret crush!

She had always been looking at Bai Ge through the eyes of Kiana; she hadn't even said a single word to Bai Ge herself!

So the Queen became 'shy and proud' and turned her head away with her arms crossed, trying not to look Bai Ge in the eye.

"Fall in love with this world? Don't be ridiculous, I am the Queen of Honkai, a Herrscher."

"These days, who isn't a Herrscher? Me too. And let me take a good look into your eyes."

"No, don't come any closer, Bai Ge, what do you want to do?"

Before the Herrscher of the Void could resist, Bai Ge cupped her cheeks in his hands, forcing her to look him in the eye.

The Queen's golden eyes were dazzling, completely opposite to Kiana's soft blue eyes, but after all, they were personalities that were the complete opposite of Kiana.

"I hope you can give up on destroying the world, okay? Although a lot of dangerous things have happened, I really love this world," Bai Ge said earnestly.

"... Why? Doing that will only create unnecessary weaknesses for you. You can clearly remain perfect and powerful." The Herrscher of the Void frowned.

"No, you've misunderstood something. The reason I'm so powerful is because there are people I want to protect. This power exists to rewrite tragedy, and..."

Bai Ge raised his hand and embraced the Queen in front of him, whispering.

"Now, you're one of the people I want to protect~"

This is the third update. Please give me flowers, votes, and tips.

These two chapters were so hard to write! It took me over ten hours to finally get them out, and it's so frustrating. My Navia is off-track, sob sob...

Chapter 170, Bai Ge: You can all just love me! (Please subscribe automatically)

Bai Ge raised his hand and embraced the Honkai Queen in front of him.

He rushed over as soon as his body recovered, but it was already over. When he arrived, he saw the Herrscher of the Void falling from the sky and everyone asking her about her motives for destroying the world.

Feeling equally curious and thinking it wouldn't be right to interrupt Bai transformed himself into Quantum Ghost, intending to appear only after everyone had finished talking.

He also wanted to hear the Queen's motives for the crime.

The result was unexpected.

The reason why the Herrscher of the Void wanted to destroy the world was actually for Bai Ge's own sake! After hearing the Queen's entire confession and reasons, Bai Ge was both shocked and moved.

A Queen who chooses to destroy the world for her own sake, her only goal is to live forever unharmed, free from all constraints...
