Baige: I Shall Set the Sea of Stars Ablaze!
The Herrscher of Finality opened his eyes wide.
"Impossible! You should be dead!"
"Yes, but I can be resurrected, didn't you expect that!"
Bai Ge said proudly, hands on his hips.
As the strongest Chimera Fusion Warrior in history, he possesses the abilities of tens of thousands of Honkai Beasts, including the Third Herrscher's Companion Honkai Beast, the Judgment-Class Honkai Beast Shesha, which can resurrect infinitely.
While not entirely without cost, Shesha's resurrection ability reduces a person's physical size and age.
At this moment, Bai Ge transformed into a fifteen-year-old.
"It's just a minor issue. You can't kill me, Herrscher of Finality."
In fact, besides Shesha's resurrection ability, Bai Ge has many other ways to save his life.
After all, don't forget that he is also a Herrscher of Reason, whose specialty is sit-ups, and he has repeatedly jumped between life and death!
Bai Ge picked up the Heavenly Fire Holy Judgment, which had transformed into twin pistols, and turned it back into the Might of An-Utu Mode. He then continued to point his sword at the Finality.
"Goddess of Honkai, let us continue, but do not take your eyes off me before you kill me."
First update. Please give me flowers, votes, and tips.
Preview: The next chapter will cover the Finality, and the female protagonist of Griseo will be revealed.

"Why aren't you dead yet?"
"Why are you still alive?"
"Why can it still roar?"
"Why is it still burning?"
On the battlefield between the moon and the earth, the Herrscher of Finality, representing Honkai, couldn't help but ask this question.
The Gods's golden eyes were filled with horror. He didn't know how many times this had happened—ten times, twenty times, or thirty times? Or even more— White Youth before him stood up again.
Even though he had pierced his heart, broken his wings, and ruined his life several times, he still rose again and again.
Bai Ge's entire body was engulfed in flames.
The life force seemed to be fueled by its own blood, leaving even the Herrscher of Finality speechless.
At this moment, this Gods who had destroyed countless civilizations was unsure whether he could destroy this boy. Even if he destroyed his body, the boy's will would surely pick up his sword and continue to charge towards him.
"Why insist on going this far?"
The Herrscher of Finality couldn't help but ask.
"How long has it been? Without everyone's help... it's really tough, but soon... it will be done."
Bai Ge himself didn't know how many times he had stood up.
Suddenly he noticed that his hands had become much smaller.
The Heavenly Fire Holy Judgment: Jie Mie, which could originally be held with one hand, now requires two hands.
Looking down, he realized that his body had shrunk to the size of a seven or eight-year-old child. This was a side effect of Shesha's resurrection ability being activated too many times, causing his body to shrink.
He has now reverted to the appearance of the young child he was when he first arrived in the Previous Civilization.
"Mei... how much longer until the evacuation..."
"That's enough, Bai Ge... Are you alright? Let's stop, okay? That's enough. Everyone has already gone to the World Bubble... You don't need to continue fighting."
Mei's voice trembled, and she almost pleaded.
"Haha... Mei... you lied to me again... Snakey... tell me, how much longer..."
"... It will take another forty-five minutes."
Mobius hesitated before uttering the harsh reality.
Just now, Bai Ge fought against the Herrscher of Finality alone, enduring forty-five minutes at the cost of dozens of deaths, allowing hundreds of millions of people on Earth to evacuate into the World Bubble.
However, it will take another 45 minutes for all 17 people to evacuate.
"Okay... I understand..."
Bai Ge nodded calmly.
He looked up at the Herrscher of Finality, his eyes showing no sign of submission or defeat, Greatsword of Annihilation, which he could only grip with both hands, was once again engulfed in heavenly fire.
To the Herrscher of Finality, even the Might of An-Utu, capable of burning mountains and boiling seas, is nothing more than a small torch; however, no matter what she does, she cannot extinguish the flame.
(As expected, without everyone's help, I'd die horribly if I went to fight this guy alone. With Aili by my side, I didn't die once in three hours, but now I've died dozens of times in just forty-five minutes. Sigh... I'm getting a little... tired...)
Bai Ge turned to look at the Flame-Chasers behind him.
Kevin and the others were all in tears, feeling sad and unwilling, but unlike Bai Ge, who could quickly recover Honkai Energy and obtain a continuous supply of energy from the World Bubble.
Even though the Flame-Chasers' wills were equally unyielding, their bodies were no longer capable of fighting.
Why persist to this point?
At this moment, the question of the Finality reached Bai Ge's ears.
"What? Even Gods have things they don't know?"
Bai Ge chuckled and said.
"Hmm, tell me why you insist on this. Three days and eight hours have passed since I came into this world. You have already gained more time than any civilization in the past. Why do you still want to continue? Why are you still not satisfied?"
Her mission urged the Herrscher of Finality to kill Bai Ge, but at this moment her doubts overcame her instincts as a Honkai.
The Herrscher of Finality felt he had to know the answer.
Not from the perspective of Gods, but as an enemy who fought this White Youth to this point.
"Human... Bai Ge, with your abilities, even if I destroy all of humanity and reset this era, you should still be able to survive, and you could even let those people over there live on as well. So why are you fighting me here?"
The Herrscher of Finality remembered the name of Bai Ge.
This was the only human name she remembered.
This Honkai goddess had never spoken so many words to a human before.
"Why try to save this failing era?"
"..."
Bai Ge stared silently at the Herrscher of Finality for a while, and was momentarily stunned. He rested his chin on the hilt of the Greatsword of Annihilation and pondered for a moment.
"Your question made me realize that I haven't really thought about this issue before. I've unknowingly gotten to this point, and now I'm standing in front of you."
"What? You didn't even have a reason to fight, yet you held me off for three days? That's impossible."
"The Herrscher of Finality said with absolute certainty."
No one in the world knew better than her how strong Bai Ge's will was; he had already overcome death dozens of times.
This unwavering will, which even death cannot extinguish, must have a source! Just as a flame needs fuel to ignite, Bai Ge must also have a reason to fight.
"Of course, I certainly have my reasons for fighting."
Bai Ge's lips curled up slightly, and his eyes, which were once filled with an indomitable fighting spirit, softened at that moment.
"Initially, I probably just came to this era because I thought saving the world was cool and I wanted the people I liked to live, so I tried to change the tragedy."
"But when I came to this time and space, I fell in love with a girl. We grew up together, traveled around the world together, and saw the beauty of this civilization and this era."
"The trip I took with her made me fall in love with this world. After all, it is so beautiful, full of vitality and life, love and hope, and makes people want to protect it."
"Now I'm certain that I've fallen in love with the world!"
The Herrscher of Finality stared silently at Bai Ge. Even though his body was covered in wounds and his life was as fragile as a candle flickering in the wind, the boy's eyes were still so bright.
"Bai Ge, Bai Ge..."
Tears welled up in Elysia's eyes, and she involuntarily reached out her hand towards Bai Ge's back. At this moment, she really wanted to hug the boy she loved tightly.
"I made a promise with her that we would continue our travels after everything was over, and in order to fulfill that promise, I must protect the civilization of this era!"
"Perhaps I cannot stop you from resetting this era, but as long as the people of this era are still here, then civilization will still Finality, civilization will not be destroyed, and that... is my reason for fighting!"
"I want to dedicate my life to the future!"
Bai Ge pressed his hand to his chest and said.
Now his body has become Noah's Ark. As long as people are inside the World Bubble within him, everyone in the Previous Civilization can live into the future. And as long as the people of the Previous Civilization are alive, the Previous Civilization will not perish.
"... I don't understand. This civilization doesn't have that kind of value. Like countless other civilizations I've destroyed in the past, it's a substandard product that couldn't withstand the embrace of Honkai."
A look of confusion appeared in the eyes of the Herrscher of Finality, and at this moment she did not realize that she had placed the value of a young boy's life above an entire era of civilization.
"Idiot!"
Bai Ge glared fiercely at the Finality and reprimanded him.
"The value of a civilization is not determined by its ability to withstand Honkai. You have never walked on the earth, never appreciated nature and art, and never witnessed the beauty and ugliness of humanity."
