Chapter 104

They should be exactly the same.

"Xiao Zhen..."

Chapter 86, Epilogue.

Mio Takamiya's power exceeded Black Amber's initial expectations. Although she had already overestimated it from an underestimated perspective, she still gasped in surprise after truly understanding the magnitude of this power from Amber.

Because this is true 'divine power', given enough time, it can even create new universes. As for creating planets, it's just a trivial matter. Although it still requires energy and cannot truly create something from nothing, it is already Limitless close to the great power of God.

Especially... while possessing this power, Amber also has the Limitless growing power of the Tengen. If the two continue to accumulate indefinitely, Black Amber cannot imagine what heights Amber will reach in the future.

At this moment, Amber can easily reverse time, return to any point in the past, create life, and manipulate the laws of physics at will. These are all just part of her abilities, and the so-called wish fulfillment has become a reality with the permission of her energy.

If Mio Takamiya knew how to use the Tai Xu Sword Qi, she wouldn't need anyone's help at all; she could reverse time and go back to the moment when Mao Takamiya was killed to change that fact.

Unfortunately, due to various reasons and ideas, she never explored the essence of her power until the end. On the contrary, all the spirits used their abilities more skillfully than Mio Takamiya, especially Kurumi. If it weren't for her insufficient power level, Kurumi could truly call herself the Goddess of Time.

Thinking of the Star God who was once out of reach, Black Amber's heart burned with even greater fervor.

I originally thought that once we got to the Honkai: Star Rail, we might need that three-year-old Immortal to act as a backer, but if Amber is allowed to grow like this, surpassing the Star God is not a pipe dream, but an inevitability.

Unfortunately, there's no way to forge a path in life. After Amber's strength, like Kiana's, isn't some kind of philosophical concept of destiny; it's pure power. A large scale is simply a large scale.

After resolving the biggest issue in her heart, the next step was naturally to test this power. The results were very encouraging, or rather, excessively encouraging. As mentioned before, Amber could do everything that Mio Takamiya could do, Amber could also do things that Mio Takamiya couldn't do.

After obtaining this power, Amber's first test was to re-condense Yoshino and the others' Zero Crystal and return them to their original state. The so-called point theory posed no limitation to Amber at all. Just like the Mystic Eyes of Insight through and improve techniques at a glance and fool predecessors, it was only because the holder was too talented that he had to weaken his own talent and was forced to do so.

The point mass is merely a limited summary of that Limitless power by Mio Takamiya, in order to facilitate her control over it.

Once Amber and Black Amber master this power, they can even directly condense a low-end version of the 'Origin Spirit Crystal'. Apart from the difference in scale, it is no different from the power that Mio Takamiya used before.

After doing all that, the second thing to do was to test the conjectures that Black Amber had made before.

In other words, can the 'past self' use Character Card?

In response, Amber once again produced the Time Elf's Zero Crystal and gave it to Black Amber. After testing, the conclusion was that it could be used.

Black Amber didn't have high hopes, after all, she guessed the conditions for using the Character Card based on the previous Puppet Technique.

People who are bound to the system.

The key point is not the person, but being bound to the system. And that is indeed the case. The doll itself is not bound to the system, but... the past self that Amber summoned is bound to the system, and can even use the friend system to let the Herrscher of Reason know that she is safe on the Honkai: Star Rail.

Although she successfully exploited the system's bug,... she still felt the system was a bit low-level? No, she couldn't think of it that way, after all, Amber was the system's bound user... it's normal for her power to influence the system in return... it really is still a bit low-level...

This might be related to the fact that the system was almost down at the moment.

Regardless, this convenience is something to be happy about, at least for now.

Black Amber's sense of crisis will only be alleviated, never disappear. Is Mio Takamiya strong? Yes, but not as strong as the Star God Star God strong? Yes, but there are countless beings stronger than the Star God in countless worlds. As the journey continues, she may encounter unimaginable enemies in the future. Mio Takamiya can be easily manipulated by Black Amber, but other strong individuals are different. Normal strong individuals have a mindset that matches their strength. Compared to them, Mio Takamiya is practically a freebie.

Moreover, it is the safest and most priority to go to the next world to explore and lay the groundwork. Although the coordinates of the Honkai: Star Rail have been obtained through the Herrscher of Reason, it is not the best place to go right now. We should wait until Amber is no longer afraid of the Star God before making any decisions.

Having decided to head to the next world immediately, Black Amber turned her attention to Fu Hua.

She borrowed the Feathered Dust from Amber for the first time, and then had a conversation with Fu Hua, who was Amber's mentor. The main point was simple: the Herrscher of Reason, Amber, and even herself were all getting stronger over time. Although Black Amber didn't mind Fu Hua continuing to stay by Amber's side as Amber spiritual mentor, it wasn't the best choice.

Fu Hua was well aware of this.

She never brought this up not because she was content with the peace, but because she has never been a proactive person. In addition, she almost lost her disciple again because of her letting go, so she was even more cautious.

The fledgling eagle, which has always been guarded and arranged, cannot learn to fly on its own. Black Amber took the initiative to point this out, Amber once again had the power to act recklessly for a short period of time. Fu Hua naturally knew to leave with peace of mind, but the same words remained unspoken in Fu Hua's mouth.

In Black Amber's eyes, he is an eagle that cannot bear to see its fledgling fall off a cliff, so isn't Black Amber the same?

Amber wasn't too surprised by her master's and her other self's sudden farewell. Even though she had stored a lot of Remembrance and emotions in the Feathered Dust, she was no longer the trembling little girl she used to be. Whether it was Fu Hua, the Herrscher of Reason, or Black Amber, they had all become family to her. But family members don't all walk the same path, Amber had no reason to stop others from leaving.

Besides, it's not like we can't contact each other. If we miss each other, we can still talk through the system's friend module.

After a tacit farewell, Fu Hua and Black Amber both teleported randomly.

Black Amber didn't care where Fu Hua went, but after learning about the state of the world through hacking, Black Amber raised an eyebrow.

It really is a world where you can relax and unwind; Amber would probably love it.

The first chapter features the Collapse Trio! I love it!

The choice of a new world remains fixed until Date A Live.

These are three worlds predetermined by the Main Control Consciousness. There will be no insurmountable crises, and as long as one behaves well, there will be no danger to one's life. But things will be different after these three worlds.

Normally, from now on, Amber will not know which world she will be going to. After all, the system has lost its connection with the Main System. Without the Main System's database, it cannot determine the coordinates. Even if it does determine the coordinates, it cannot accurately teleport to a certain point in time. The first three worlds were the only four that the Main Control Consciousness retained before it ran away.

But now, due to various unexpected events, three beings who should have been outsiders have become hosts due to a bug, and they are helping Amber to find out the situation through three paths.

The Herrscher of Reason is still on the Honkai: Star Rail. This world is far more interesting than any she has been to before. And while on the Zhuming Xianzhou, she is constantly thinking about when she can become a general, and she is very interested in it.

Fu Hua, however, did not have the same good fortune as the Herrscher of Reason, who reached the level of Emanator in just two worlds. Although she did not encounter any danger, the worlds she traveled through did not bring her any improvement. Fortunately, Fu Hua had long since calmed down and was not in a hurry. She continued her journey steadily at her own pace.

Compared to the former two, Black Amber doesn't have a strong desire for self-improvement. She is more concerned about Amber's improvement than herself. However, Amber already has no shortage of means to improve. With Mio Takamiya's power and the ability to reach the top in one step, plus Tengen's Limitless growth, it is better to put down her pace and settle down than to continue to rush to break through at all costs.

The Honkai: Star Rail is not enough for Amber to rest easy, Fu Hua is still looking for an opportunity to break through. Therefore, the only world Amber can choose is her own.

And her own world and her own abilities could provide Amber with the most comfortable environment to rest and reflect.

All three expressed varying degrees of agreement with Black Amber's criticism, so Amber directly selected 'Move to Friend' in her friend list.

"Huh? It's Möbius?"

The dizziness from the time travel was barely noticeable. When her vision shifted and she saw the figure in front of her, Amber couldn't help but feel a little nostalgic.

"This Character Card is very convenient."

Black Amber laughed and said, "Besides, don't you like the idea of binding organizations and characters together? Starting from scratch in a new world, World Serpent is very useful, so it's only natural for me to use Möbius's Character Card."

"Indeed... Bishop of Schicksal Möbius of Destiny, that sounds somewhat..."

Amber scratched her head, a look of utter confusion on her face.

Having traveled to the new world, she had returned to her original form with long black hair, and her expression looked perfectly natural.

"Uh-huh."

Black Amber shrugged and continued, "But I still created Schicksal. After all, 'World Serpent' is a clandestine organization, and using 'Schicksal' openly suits your taste, right?"

"After all, there was Theresa... but I didn't expect you to actually accept it..."

"Theresa isn't just silly; in the eyes of the Valkyrie, she's also very dignified..."

The second half of the sentence was said with some hesitation, but that didn't matter. "Besides, it wasn't me who went. Since there's such a convenient 'past me,' of course I wouldn't suffer in person."

"Ah, this..."

"But this job will be handed over to you from now on, after all, that was me in the past."

After a brief exchange of pleasantries, Black Amber steered the conversation back on track. "Who is the featured character in this world's gacha pool?"

They don't need to communicate much, not entirely because of their tacit understanding, but because they often talk on the system. Amber simply shares things about her life and feelings, while Black Amber reveals her plans and exploration of this world in advance.

Due to the difference in the flow of time, although Amber spent a hundred years in the duel, Black Amber has actually only been here for less than five years. In those five years, she spread World Serpent all over the world and put Schicksal on the negotiating table of the world's highest authority. This was not only due to her skills, but also because this is a world where the ordinary is mixed with the extraordinary.

First of all, Magical Girl in this world are not just a fantasy from anime, but a real concept. Different Magical Girl even have their own fan groups. Their purpose is to fight against evil monsters and Evil Organization.

Meanwhile, Schicksal continues his old ways, yearning for Magical Girl but having no chance to be one? The Evil Organization and its evil monsters are too numerous and always launch surprise attacks, making it impossible for Magical Girl to arrive in time?

It's alright, Schicksal has Valkyrie.

Drawing on her experience from the previous world, Black Amber skillfully established herself in this world and gradually rose to greater heights. Unfortunately, the existence of Magical Girl as vigilantes in this world meant that most countries' fear of the Evil Organization was not as severe as the fear of the elves in the Date A Live World.

However, it's not a big problem. Rights are never given by others, but earned by having a strong enough fist.

With its formidable armed forces and Manifestation Device far surpassing the technology of this world, Schicksal ultimately reached an unbelievable height in a short period of time. Although many people still privately denounced Schicksal as a violent organization, it was nothing but a fart in Black Amber's ears.

Unlike last time, Schicksal has now made Japan its primary target. Although Japan is still nominally under government control, it is actually completely under Schicksal's control. After all, Amber is here for a vacation and to recharge, so it's better for her to have her own territory.

Besides, Japan has no shortage of fun. How can you relax during your vacation without having fun?

In addition, Black Amber noticed that this world had an extremely weak spatial structure, and based on her research and investigation, she quickly discovered the existence of Otherworld.

It was a world of swords and True Magic, dragons and gods. Black Amber did not directly investigate that place, not only because there were still many things to do in this world, but more importantly... her investigation into the Otherworld was progressing very slowly. Someone was deliberately concealing the existence of the Otherworld, which led her to finally believe in its existence only two or three months ago, and only in the last two weeks did she find a way to go to the Otherworld.

Just then, Amber arrived, Black Amber thought that they might as well find some time later to go and see the Otherworld together.

Of course, just in case, it's best to send your 'past self'.

Amber skillfully opened the Gacha Interface, and looking at the featured character in the Up banner, a look of surprise and delight flashed in her eyes. "It's Raiden Mei!"

The Three Great Families! I love them so much!

Speaking of which, I also have a Kiana Character Card, but unfortunately it's from the Third Collapse period, so it's a bit weak.

Chapter Two is still in Go.

"Holy crap, it's still going!?"

Knowing that she would definitely feel uncomfortable with the Black Amber, Amber, who had used the Kiana Character Card, looked at the document in her hand in surprise.

It wasn't a business plan or a research report, but just an ordinary college admission letter. However, the school on the letter was quite famous; Amber had seen that name quite often.

Moonlit Forest

"I deliberately kept this a secret, after all... it could be a surprise."

Black Amber raised an eyebrow. Although she was now using the Raiden Mei Character Card, her features were soft and lacked aggression, making her a traditional Yamato Nadeshiko-type beauty. However, due to the temperament of her soul, she was more like the Herrscher of Thunder Mei than Mei.

Thank you!

Amber looked away and smiled, "I really like this surprise!"

Mygo was a work she paid close attention to in the past. Not only the work itself, but also the fan creations were a major focus of her browsing. In Amber's eyes, there are not many works that can portray each character in a girl band so vividly. As time goes by, the character designs will inevitably become similar and repetitive. The 'label' has become an inescapable element for girl bands or girl idols.

In addition, since these kinds of works are almost all full of fantasy and beauty, the realism of Mygo is truly rare.

Therefore, Amber loves this work and the characters in it very much.

"But... why is this world so special? Mygo and Magical Girl have appeared at the same time..."

The thought that this world doesn't seem to be a peaceful one made Amber worry about the situation of the characters she had loved.

"Don't worry, what you're worried about didn't happen. I've been paying close attention to them ever since I noticed it."

Black Amber said, "However, I have never interfered with their paths. Perhaps this is something special. Their development is no different from that in the 'plot,' or at least not too different."

"I see..."

Amber certainly understood this principle, after all, she herself was special.

"Speaking of which, where is this place...?"

Relieved, Amber looked around at her surroundings. It was clearly a multi-story residential building, or rather, judging from the view outside the window, it should be a villa area.

"I'd say I'm like a second-rate Tomson in Japan, after all, I am the sovereign of the World Serpent and the bishop of Schicksal."

Black Amber wouldn't compromise on her treatment. World Serpent is an underground organization that doesn't show itself in public, so this villa is ostensibly Theresa's residence.

Seeing Amber's still somewhat bewildered expression, the black-haired girl smiled and said, "You've only just arrived today. Go out and buy some daily necessities first. 'Raiden Mei' is still an unregistered person in this world, so you'll have to pay for it for now."

"Huh? Isn't Kiana of them?"

"I've acquired identities and savings for all the Character Card so we can access them anytime, except for Raiden Mei, whom I just drew."

"As expected of you, you prepared everything perfectly!"

At this point, Amber suddenly felt a little embarrassed, as if it was Black Amber who was busy creating an environment for her without any worries, whether in the previous world or this world.

The girl was no longer shy about expressing herself, especially when facing someone like Black Amber who was completely one of her own. "You've worked so hard again. How about I take care of you today? You're always the one taking care of me. I feel like I've become a parasite who can't take care of myself."

"No need for any special care... If you'd like to thank me..."

Black Amber's eyes darted around, and she offered another suggestion. "How about... you promise me that you'll follow the Character Card's behavior more seriously in this world?"

"Ah?"

What kind of way is this to express gratitude? I've always followed the Character Card's description so as not to ruin my waifu's persona.

Is the focus on 'more and more serious adherence'?

Although she didn't quite understand Black Amber's meaning, since it was her own offer of compensation, there was no reason for her to back out.

"Okay, I promise you."

Amber nodded.
