Truly a Good Brother! / Opening the Door to a New World for Himeko

If I'm not mistaken, this thing is the key to fighting against [God]...

Come on, the destiny of the previous generation, I'll take over this game!

Kevin's eyes sharpened. He sat down on the futon and began to fill in the final details of his plan.

At eight o'clock the next morning, Fu Hua's cell phone alarm rang. Her eyes brightened, and she gently knocked on the door.

At this moment, a man with wildly growing hair and beard emerged from the secret room.

The Mage Hamill, who was in charge of internal affairs, had also been waiting for a long time. However, the two black and white protectors behind him clearly showed little respect for this guy who had once mocked their master.

Hamil escorted the two men to the outside of the main hall. Before they left, the two black and white protectors wanted to say a few difficult words, but Kevin glanced at them casually, his eyes flashing like lightning, which made them stiffen.

The polite middle-aged Asian man stepped in front of the two, preventing the conflict from escalating, and then approached Kevin, bowing and whispering.

"Your Excellency, my master has one last message for you..."

"The Honkai... is not the enemy..."

Kevin smiled without saying anything. After taking a few steps, he seemed to remember something, took out a bunch of keys from his pocket, and tossed them to the Mage Hamill.

"As a courtesy, please pass this on to Dr. Stephen Doctor Strange..."

The Mage Hamill was somewhat confused. "We don't have such a person here..."

"It will happen..." Kevin meaningfully.

"What is this for?" Having roughly identified the person in front of him, Hamil wanted to confirm the key's purpose further, so he asked a few more questions.

"Oh, a house in London, England, 221B Baker Street Apartment. I think it would suit him perfectly. The property deed and all the paperwork are in order, and they're all on the table in the living room..."

"This can be considered an early celebration for your new Sorcerer Supreme..."

After Kevin finished speaking, he casually waved goodbye. Before Hamil could react, he pulled Fu Hua up and boarded the helicopter, driving away. A vengeful smile bloomed on someone's face.

So you're playing riddles, huh? I'm better at it than you. Let your disciples and their followers struggle with it, you old fox...

At this moment, Hamil's mind was in turmoil, constantly grappling with a series of questions.

First, who is Stephen Stellan? Is he the next Sorcerer Supreme?

What about the master? What will happen to her?

What on 221B Baker Street Apartment?

After a long while, Hamil, increasingly confused, let out a long sigh and gave a bitter smile to the helicopter that disappeared into the snowstorm.

This guy is really a handful...

Nighttime, Yellowstone Base the American Anti-Entropy. The booster rockets on the huge launch pad are ready. In the living room, the temporary leader of the alliance groggily gets up from Fu Hua's lap.

After months of non-stop work, I was really exhausted, but I managed to get a good night's sleep for six or seven hours before setting off.

Now that [Schicksal] and [Anti-Entropy] are fighting each other, it's time to resolve the above issues.

"Are you sure you don't need to bring anyone else?"

Just before boarding, Technical Director Teslan couldn't help but ask again.

Kevin slowly put on his Spacesuit and said something casually.

"If I die, I'm prepared to emigrate or flee for my life, heading towards the Himalayas..."

However, the moment the hatch closed, Kevin, sitting in the pilot's seat, turned his head to look at the figure that appeared behind him, feeling somewhat amused and exasperated.

"Captain Kevin, Super Fusion Warrior MSA-209 from Fire Moth Fifth Squad, requesting to return to the squad!"

In the darkness, Fu Hua's once chaotic eyes now shone brightly.

P. S.: The world-building is gradually becoming more complete, and the major ancient forces have basically become connected with religion and mythology, which seems to make sense.

Furthermore, the reason why the Ancient One ignored the Honkai universe was conveniently explained by that line.

Chapter 385, Section 403: Truly a good brother!

Inside the space capsule, Fu Hua buried himself in a small notebook he carried with him, writing and drawing, exuding a calm and serene aura.

"What are you busy with? Writing your will?"

Kevin, with his head resting on his arms, legs propped up on the control panel, and a bag of liquid food dangling from his teeth, asked irritably.

"Journal..."

Fu Hua's enunciation remained concise and refined, but it was imbued with profound meaning.

Kevin was still somewhat angry about the woman's unauthorized actions, so he grabbed her diary and began to read it curiously.

"Today, the captain slept for six hours on my lap, as peacefully as a child, so adorable. After waking up, he even ordered a pizza with Spider-Man as the spokesperson, and it tasted pretty good..."

Kevin read it aloud, a hint of mockery in his eyes.

"Oh ho, so you only remember these trivial, boring things?"

Fu Hua calmly snatched the diary back and continued to recall the details and specifics of the events, her tone very calm.

"At least, if I survive the next time I forget, I can still see the past..."

"Isn't it good that someone remembers you?"

Kevin fell silent for a moment, then sighed softly.

"How much of Dan Zhu, Cang Xuan, Ji Lin, and others do you recall?"

"Simply mentioning these names doesn't always help me remember what actually happened... but it hurts, it makes me feel very vulnerable..."

Kevin glanced at the woman who was frowning in deep thought, her right hand pressed against her chest, and couldn't help but roll his eyes.

"You've probably almost forgotten what your disciple Cheng Lixue, whom you've adopted over the years, looks like, haven't you?"

"No matter how much you recount the past, even if you know it happened, what difference does it make? It's already hard to truly empathize, isn't it? Overusing [Feathered Dust] will always come at a price..."

Kevin then stood up, arms outstretched, his voice low.

"So, I hope you don't come. Remember this well, and try your best to live on..."

"You've even booked a private plane to Siberia. Wouldn't it be better to go back to your precious disciple and rebuild your relationship? Why do you have to get involved in this mess..."

Fu Hua wrote the last word and gently closed the diary.

"The price? Aren't you in the same boat? You can't hug other people now, right, Captain..."

"Our era is long gone. For a soldier, to survive is a disgrace if there is no mission to fulfill..."

"This is a war that should have ended 50,000 years ago; you shouldn't have to bear it all alone..."

Kevin sighed helplessly, snatched the pen and paper, and wrote a name on the first page of the diary.

"Muryota... Himeko? This is...?"

Fu Hua glanced at the contents, somewhat confused.

"Your best friend, the alternate-dimensional counterpart of the previous generation's Seventh Herrscher, Himeko—or, to put it more simply, a reincarnation of her soul..."

"Based on my speculation, the Shenzhou conjecture about reincarnation should be correct. There is a constant number of influential souls in this world, and they will cycle through time in some way..."

"Perhaps, when the time is right, you can awaken Himeko's past life memories through Murata Himeko. In that case, the mystery of her transformation into Herrscher might be solved..."

"Isn't this your obsession of fifty thousand years? I haven't figured out the specific steps to awaken those memories yet. Time is running out, so I can only set it up this far for you..."

"Actually, Siegfried should have been responsible for telling you all this, but I never expected you to sneak onto the spaceship and smuggle yourself to the moon with me, a European..."

Kevin, half helplessly and half jokingly, that after walking together through the most difficult times, there was no need to hide anything anymore.

Fu Hua's heart, which had been like a dry well, was pounding violently, partly for Himeko and partly for the man before her.

"Captain, you... you've really changed a lot..."

Kevin tapped his head, then spread his hands, looking at the gradually clearer outline of the moon with a half-smile.

"Perhaps I am the most successful case of reincarnation awakening memories..."

"Of course, this kind of thing has to be repaid, and it's imminent..."

At this moment, Fu Hua repeatedly changed the position of his hands, clenching them tightly and then loosening them.

"Captain, since you knew this mission was dangerous, why didn't you select more people to join the expedition? With your influence, you could have..."

"Who should we look for? Those who are too low-level can't even withstand the vacuum environment of the moon; they'd just be easy prey. And the bigwigs of various organizations, those around the Lord-class, are all too arrogant and unruly..."

"The waters of the Shenzhou Plains are too deep, and the old fox Gu Yi is detached from worldly affairs; if Otto, the Schicksal, doesn't hold me back, or if he betrays me and bleeds me dry like he did with Welt, I'll have to thank Buddha..."

"In order to reset the world, [World Serpent] was crippled by its own counterpart in the Quantum Sea; [Anti-Entropy] is almost entirely composed of scientists, good at economic warfare and invention, but forget about one-on-one combat..."

"The X-Men Academy and the Brotherhood of Mutants, though they've risen to prominence, I'm not that close to them. Professor X is in a wheelchair; going to the moon would be a complete waste of time. And if Magneto and the time bomb Phoenix showed up, things could get out of control, and I might have to take on several of them..."

"Moreover, these old men and S.H.I.E.L.D.. are still arguing fiercely over the terms of the Mutant Registration Act; it won't be quiet for at least a year or two..."

"I still have no idea what the Roman Curia is up to behind closed doors..."

"Siegfried's body will be almost completely cold after another round of Heavenly Fire. I can't possibly be both father and mother to the scourge of the Kaslana family, can I?"

"As for the remaining cats and dogs, who cares if the meteorite didn't hit their heads?"

Kevin started counting on his fingers, meticulously listing the various bigwigs on Earth, his face full of resentment.

"What about your subordinates? Don't you still have them? The B-17 military fortress, and that World-Ending Diva too..."

Fu Hua's tone became somewhat hurried without her noticing.

Kevin laughed, scratched his head, and spoke in a drawn-out tone.

"Me? I can't bear to..."

"They have suffered so much, every single one of them..."

"Besides, this is my destiny..."

Humans are not gods; they don't have the chance to start over every time. Even with the most perfect calculations, mistakes will always happen.

Because of Cecilia and Ouma Mana, you're scared...

At this moment, a pair of arms wrapped around Kevin's neck, but in just a moment, patches of Azure Ice Crystal condensed.

Kevin stiffened, turned slightly, and met Fu Hua's gaze behind him.

"Compared to everything you've done, this is nothing, just a final embrace between comrades..."

Fu Hua remained calm, then shattered the frost with a flick of her wrist.

"That's right, he really is a good brother!"

Kevin noticed a hint of red on the Nine Heavens Xuannü Maiden's ear and smiled nonchalantly.

So many words, her heart was in turmoil...

An awkward atmosphere gradually brewed between the two. Just as Fu Hua was feeling somewhat uneasy, with a slight tremor, the Landing Pod detached from the main body and began to head towards the Lunar Surface.

"Captain, I also want to ask, what did you say to those higher-ups at [Anti-Entropy] that made them choose to fully cooperate with you?"

Fu Hua gazed at the dense Honkai Beast on the Lunar Surface and, to ease the awkwardness, casually asked a question.

"Um, just one sentence..."

Kevin drew the Heavenly Fire Sacred Judgment with a half-smile and spoke softly.

"I can die in Welt's place..."

P. S.: In my mind, Kevin is gentler than [World Serpent]. Therefore, he chose not to threaten [Anti-Entropy], but to move him with the utmost sincerity. He is a righteous man who gains many supporters, and the benevolent are invincible. I guess that's how it is.

Chapter 386, Section 404: Opening the Door to a New World for Himeko

At California Institute of Technology, in a relatively popular history elective course, a young man with brown hair and a black suit is sitting in a wheelchair, using electronic devices to explain the modern history section of A Global History to his students.

"Teacher, you just said that, judging from the development rules of the modern industrial revolution, the essence of civilization has an intrinsic drive for exploration and a predatory nature towards resources. If it is not restrained by reason, it will inevitably cause great harm..."

"At the same time, you also mentioned the Gaia Hypothesis of British atmospheric scientist James Lovelock, which posits that Earth's entire ecosystem is like another form of life..."

"In your view, our relationship with the Earth is like the connection between humans and the bacteria in our bodies. Could it be that the land beneath my feet will one day retaliate against us?"

At that moment, a fiery young woman with long, wine-red hair tied back in the classroom raised her hand to retort while chewing gum, and even stomped her foot playfully on the ground.
