The Confused Rider

In Reaven's, Sachi, Ai-chan, Natasha, and Kane are sitting at the dining table. Faced with the steaming food, all three of them have a great appetite, except for Sachi, who seems to have no appetite.

Wait a minute, Ai-chan, aren't you artificial intelligence? Why are you eating?!

"What's wrong, little one? You usually eat a lot, how come you've only eaten 5 bowls so far?" Natasha noticed her unusual behavior and asked with concern.

"I'm not hungry, you guys eat first. I'm a little tired, I'm going to sleep." The girl, in a bad mood, simply put down her chopsticks and left the table.

After she left, Natasha, with an unfriendly expression, shoved Kane into the bowl. "You brat, tell me honestly, did you bully her?"

"Shopkeeper, are you serious about what you're saying...?" Kane felt wronged and said he was very bitter. He was the one who had been bullied all along.

Back in her room, the girl kicked off her shoes and lay back on the bed, revealing her white fox ears and tail.

Fortunately, she wasn't sleepy, and she couldn't fall asleep anyway.

"Not counting what the Doctor and I did, all the Fullbottles I currently possess are..." After learning the truth about how the Jackal created special Honkai Energy, the girl was quite shocked.

Damn it, these are all guys who have nothing to do with me, so why do I feel guilty? It's not like I'm the one who turned them into that. Killing them is actually a relief; they should be thanking me!

Then, is the executioner innocent as well?

It was as if a voice was questioning her.

"I..." Xing didn't know how to answer. Although she could offer timely words of wisdom to her companions when they were struggling with psychological issues, as she herself said, she was merely using principles she didn't fully understand to educate others. When she herself fell into psychological trouble, she couldn't help herself.

"I'm not some saint! They have nothing to do with me, that's all!" The fox-eared girl pounded the pillow beneath her, her frustration making her want to explode.

But what is this overwhelming sense of guilt?

"Is it because of Kallen? It seems like my Polymerization with the fragments of my personality is getting deeper and deeper. That's probably one of the reasons why I'm behaving in a more feminine way now. I hope I can adapt when I turn back into a boy." She blushed when she thought about how she used to be obsessed with dressing up.

"No, that's not the point! Kallen's personality has also influenced me. In the past, I wouldn't have felt anything unusual about this kind of thing. Aren't Honkai zombie just innocent people who turned into zombies? There's nothing wrong with me killing them, right?"

She poured out all her Fullbottles at once, and the small bottles of various colors fell to the ground, illuminating the dim room with different colored lights.

Hey, do you know how much blood is stained on your transformation device?

She questioned herself, tormented by the guilt of being influenced by Kallen and Fu Hua.

If she were a little stronger, could all the humans who were turned into monsters be saved?

"What am I thinking? They have nothing to do with me, nothing to do with me. I'm not a god, I can't save everyone. I can only barely protect the people around me. Why should I force myself to be a hero? I protect others, but who will protect me? If Kane hadn't arrived in time today, I would already be lying on the Jackal's experimental table. I don't have the power I used to have, so why am I still acting so recklessly? Or is there just too much of an element of chance?"

Indeed, in this Honkai world, you never know whether tomorrow or an accident will come first.

Stigmata Space —

Kallen (a fragment of her personality) silently observed Sachi's every move, aware of her troubles, but powerless to help. After all, Kallen Kaslana was a loser to begin with. Moreover, she wasn't Kallen Kaslana at all, merely a lingering echo of that Saintess.

The pink-clad Miko quietly stayed by her side, watching the girl Kallen before her.

From the initial God's Blessing Anthem to Nun Kallen, and then to the Sixth Night, the image of the personality fragments has been constantly changing, seemingly following Kallen Kaslana's life from back to front. The current image is Kallen in a period of confusion after being defeated by the Crimson Kite Immortal and returning in defeat.

"Sakura, thank you," she suddenly said.

"I don't think I have anything to thank you for. I'm not a good teacher and can't help her much. All I can do is accompany her and listen to her, that's all."

"But that child likes you very much, doesn't he?"

"...Um."

"Sakura, have you ever seen a celestial being?" the Saintess asked, turning to her.

Sakura was slightly taken aback. Wasn't the immortal in the Stigmata Space next door?

"Ah, sorry, I asked a stupid question. I almost forgot that Little Xing is the child of a sage. Hehe, fate is truly amazing." Realizing her mistake, she shook her head with a smile. "Back then, the sage asked her a question, something like, 'What is the purpose of the power you wield?'"

"Little Xing is not a second Kallen, nor a second Crimson Kite Immortal. She is herself. She will draw nourishment from our past and forge her own path in life. We can't help her in this respect, but I believe that her trustworthy friends will help her. Xing is not alone."

Natasha cautiously pushed open a crack in the door, thinking to herself that this girl didn't even lock the door, and her vigilance towards her was really low. It seemed that the archery lesson, which had been stopped halfway through, could continue.

Kane, who secretly followed and was kicked down by Natasha, was hiding in a corner drawing circles. I'm also concerned about Luming, why can't I even take a look? I didn't get beaten up when I went into Julia's room back then, did I?

Note: Kane's emotional intelligence and IQ are 0 in some areas.

In the basement, Ai-chan- Little Te was telling Tetsuya about her young lady's troubles. Little Te, who was purifying a new bottle, didn't react at all and just silently continued with what she was doing.

"Purification complete. Ingredients confirmed: [Pirate], a perfect match with [Train]. A question arises: why is the Tram's Fullbottles so pure? Could it be that extraction before it transformed into a monster removed impurities? Or were the impurities only present after it became a monster?"

Little Te saved the question and started working on his new task, "Optimal combination, energy injection, start building, mode selection..."

Just then, Natasha pushed the door open and entered. "Hey, little one, make a bow and arrow weapon for the little guy. Oh, considering the need for close combat, how about a bow and blade combo?"

"Mode selection complete, in production..." Little Te ignored her and continued to bury himself in his work, his little red eyes showing no emotion.

"Tsk, I wonder if it heard me. That Lobster Doctor's stuff is really unreliable." Natasha clicked her tongue in annoyance and turned to leave. She had originally wanted to go in and comfort Xing, but she was kicked out. Was she on her period or going through puberty?

Siola's mom is a bit exhausted. What should she do if her daughter throws a tantrum? Waiting for an answer online, it's urgent.

Wait, where am I going to sleep tonight?

—Miss Natasha Siola eventually made a makeshift bed on the floor outside her bedroom door—

In the dead of night, a small figure bypassed the gray-haired older woman who was sleeping on the floor, her small feet gently stepping on the floor without making a sound.

Little Te carefully pushed open the half-closed door and went inside. As soon as she entered, she realized that she seemed to have kicked something. When she picked it up, she found that it was a rabbit -Fullbottles.

When Little Te turned on night vision mode, he found all the Fullbottles scattered on the ground, and even the Build Driver was thrown aside.

Because the air conditioning wasn't on, the room was stuffy and hot. The fox-eared girl, covered in sweat, fell asleep on the bed, the water stains at the corners of her eyes unsure whether they were sweat or tears.

Little Te didn't say anything, but silently closed the door, silently turned on the air conditioner, and silently picked up the Fullbottles and Build Driver that had fallen to the ground.

"Why are the Drill Crusher, Falcon Gatlinger, and Four-Panel Ninja Sword all left aside? The Build Phone is still here too... Hmm, I don't understand, didn't Little Xing like them a lot before?"

The red-haired doll cannot understand its owner's emotions; according to the database, this human behavior is called "throwing a tantrum."

Honestly, he arranged the Fullbottles on the floor in the best possible combination, placed the driver and weapons aside, Little Te put the pirate train combination and the newly made matching weapon—a bow and blade combo weapon— onto Pirate Train (Kaizoku Hassyar).

"The weapon I made should be no different from the doctor's. I hope Little Xing will like it."

Little Te adjusted the output power of his iron fist to avoid harming the fragile girl, whose body couldn't withstand any more abuse.

After taking off her soaking wet clothes and removing the ornaments, Little Te diligently cleaned the naked girl, a task much easier than washing Guotie.

Then, all I need to do is find some new clothes for Little Xing to wear. That's what Little Te thought.

Which one should I choose?

Little Te blinked and picked out a blue-green dress and a blue and green silk stocking from her owner's pile of clothes with different colors.

P. S.: Luckily, she really likes dresses; they're very comfortable to wear. (She wears safety shorts, so there's no need to worry about certain aspects.)

After doing all this, Little Te controlled his iron fist and gently placed his owner on the bed, covering her with a blanket to keep her warm. At this moment, Little Te noticed that his owner looked very uneasy, as if she were having a nightmare.

"Little Xing seems to really like to hug something while sleeping, but the HOMU pillow from earlier is already wet..."

She blinked her little eyes, looked down at herself, tugged at her little skirt, and after confirming that her body and clothes were clean, climbed into her owner's arms.

The girl instinctively hugged her tightly, her expression softening noticeably, and her breathing gradually becoming calm.

Heart rate confirmed, normal.

All other reactions were normal.

"No, leave me..." Xing murmured unconsciously in her sleep.

"Rest assured, Tesla Zero is here to serve you and will always be by your side."

Hearing the familiar address, the girl curled up slightly and hugged Little Te even tighter.

Author's Note—

Anyway, luckily, although I was a high school student before I transmigrated, in this Honkai world, no one is not an ordinary person, and no one is a "superman".

Next episode: Kamen Rider Build! "A Tribute to the Heroes Who Bear the Burden!"

Faced with Xing's confusion, Kane gradually revealed his past during their conversation—

Natasha chose to take her on a picnic in the countryside to change her mood, but they unexpectedly encountered a forest fire!

What was initially thought to be a sudden natural fire seems to be hinting at something more with the continuous series of fires in Changkong City.

"Put this fire out!"

In the embers of the flames, a pure red bottle appeared before Sachi's eyes!
