The Hyperion's training room. Before arriving in this world, no one had ever used it. Now, Durandal had fully recovered. It had to be said that the Kaslana family's physique was truly monstrous.
"Durandal, are you ready?"
Kevin's calm voice echoed. Facing his descendant, his attitude was much gentler, which even surprised Elysia and the others.
After all, in Elysium, Kevin was always stern and exuded a suffocatingly low pressure. When they met him normally, they had to wear more clothes, or they would freeze and shiver.
Was this the care for descendants? They were a little curious about what Kevin would teach Durandal.
"I'm ready. Please guide me, Senior Kevin!"
Although Durandal's expression was a bit immature, it was also very firm, already showing some of the demeanor of a warrior.
"Honkai... Herrscher..."
As their blue eyes met, a hint of admiration appeared in Kevin's eyes. He then simply explained the dangers of the Honkai, something many people already knew. It was to give Durandal a heads-up; he didn't want anyone he trained to give up halfway because they couldn't endure it.
"Senior Kevin, so our goal is to expel the Honkai from this world?" Durandal asked directly after hearing about the dangers of the Honkai.
Just as Durandal said in the game, "I will expel the Honkai from this world." At this very moment in reality, Durandal asked the same question.
"Expel? Mei once said that every star in the sky is an enemy.
If you can completely master the Honkai and prevent it from causing destruction to civilization, then the Honkai will be the divine ascent ladder that allows you to quickly reach the stars."
Kevin spoke nostalgically. The Kevin of Elysium was not as fanatical as the Kevin executing the Stigmata Project.
Defeating the Honkai was not the ultimate goal. Whether the beings from beyond the stars were friends or enemies was unknown, but what remained constant was power. Great power commanded respect.
And Honkai Energy was undoubtedly a double-edged sword. Used well, it could promote technological advancement.
If it couldn't be controlled, it would be the great Honkai that destroys the world. If the people of this era could completely master the Honkai in the future, it would be a blessing.
However, no matter what, it would ultimately be inseparable from the Cocoon of Finality.
"Speaking of which, Chrono isn't from Earth. If beings from beyond the stars are all this powerful, then the Honkai is indeed a force that can be utilized!" Elysia suddenly said.
"He is indeed different from Earthlings. Master Chrono's cells possess greater power. Becoming a Fusion Warrior might even limit him," Zhang Wei, who had constructed Chrono's body, said, understanding his cells very well.
Before joining the Fusion Warriors, Chrono had torn apart the Ice Herrscher with his bare hands, which demonstrated his might. However, in Chrono's original planet, his strength was likely considered very high. If every being there was as strong as Chrono, then it would truly be terrifying.
"I understand, Senior Kevin. I'm ready!" Durandal said firmly, perhaps it was an instinct from her Kaslana bloodline.
"Very good. Now, choose a weapon. A sword can become my weapon because I can break it with my own hands. I am guiding you, so you don't need to imitate me!" Kevin moved aside, revealing a rack displaying various weapons.
Knight Lances, handguns, scythes, ring blades... it covered all types of weapons from the Honkai series. Durandal was overwhelmed by choice.
"Elysia, want to bet on what weapon Durandal will choose?" Zhang Wei said with a smile, confident of victory.
"Okay! Cute girls should choose elegant longbows like Fairy, or exquisite dual pistols like my dear Eden!" Elysia, unaware she was falling into a trap, smiled confidently, making Zhang Wei almost feel bad about tricking such a beautiful girl.
"Then I'll bet Durandal will choose the Knight Lance!"
"What happens if you lose?" Elysia raised an eyebrow. It was rare for girls to choose such heavy weapons; lighter ones were more suitable for elegant combat.
"If you win, I'll kiss you. If I win, you kiss me, how about that?" Zhang Wei joked.
"Uh... what's the difference?" Elysia's forehead was covered in black lines. How was it always him taking advantage? And you call yourself a member of the Love Gate, treating your revered deity like this? This is blasphemy!
"Just kidding. If you win, this Captain will grant you a wish. If you lose, you'll give me a kiss."
"Alright."
Elysia felt something was wrong, as if she had been tricked. However, a cute pink fairy would not back down from a challenge.
"Senior Kevin, I'll take this Knight Lance!"
After trying out the feel of each weapon, Durandal finally chose the Knight Lance. Since it was considered that her body hadn't fully developed yet, the Knight Lance was a smaller version.
"Mm!"
Kevin nodded. Weapons were just one factor; they couldn't determine a person's strength. Like Chrono, who was powerful enough with his bare hands, weapons could be a finishing touch or a burden.
"Ah?"
Elysia blinked her eyes. How could someone choose such an uncute weapon? Especially since this Knight Lance looks so much like the Black Abyss White Flower from back then. She should have chosen a pink, cute weapon!
"I won, shouldn't you fulfill your promise?" Zhang Wei pointed to his face, saying triumphantly.
"Hmph."
"Captain, you knew this all along, didn't you? You were just waiting for me to fall for it so you could take advantage of me!" Elysia glared at Zhang Wei, feeling foolish for being so easily tricked.
"Uh-huh, that's right. To get Elysia's sweet kiss, I could only shamefully do such a thing!" Zhang Wei said with feigned guilt, shedding tears, though they might have been crocodile tears.
Hua and Pardo felt a bit out of place standing there. Would they be silenced for knowing too much?
Mua~
Elysia wasn't one to lose gracefully. Blushing slightly, she pecked Zhang Wei on the cheek, a quick, fleeting kiss.
"Not cute at all. Don't make bets with me again!"
"Alright, from now on, I and gambling will be sworn enemies!" Zhang Wei declared righteously. Her soft lips felt good, but he wondered what they tasted like.
"Yellow?" Elysia was dumbfounded, looking at Zhang Wei speechlessly. You really don't have any yellow intentions, do you?
"Heaven above, I and gambling will be sworn enemies!" Zhang Wei made a swearing gesture.
Good heavens! Elysia and the others were speechless. They had never seen such a shameless person. Elysia suspected that even her arrows couldn't pierce Zhang Wei's thick skin.
