Only Loving Valkyries in Honkai

Himeko had already donned the Crimson Nucleus Armor. Connected through the Nexus System to the six fusion reactors aboard the Hyperion, along with the Artificial Herrscher Core of the Herrscher of Flames series embedded in her chest, she believed she could fight—and even defeat—a Herrscher.

My body feels so light.

With a greatsword on her back, Himeko clenched her fists. Her body, having been treated by Bishop Otto, was no longer affected by the aftereffects of Artificial Stigmata. Now, under Mei's research, Schicksal had completely overcome those aftereffects as well, sparing Valkyries with low adaptability from suffering.

Her heart surged with excitement. She felt that a better age had arrived.

It was a pity Theresa had not come to take part in this battle.

The sky gradually darkened, as though something were blocking out the sunlight.

Himeko regretted that she had not gotten to fight alongside Theresa after so long... Oh, she suddenly remembered that she and Theresa seemed never to have fought side by side before.

That girl...

A faint smile appeared on Himeko's lips.

Then, a sharp cry interrupted Himeko's thoughts.

"Enemy attack!"

Alarms blared across the bridge. Himeko looked suspiciously toward the distant horizon, yet she saw no enemy.

Suddenly.

She seemed to realize something.

Standing beneath the shadow, she abruptly raised her head, and her pupils contracted.

High above the warship, in the azure sky, an enormous aquatic creature blotted out the heavens. It seemed to crawl out of a dream, making it impossible to tell whether the sea lay below or above.

Her lips trembling, Himeko suddenly recalled a Honkai Beast she had read about in old records. It looked remarkably similar to the one before her.

And that Honkai Beast's name was—

Varuna.
