The reason is this: Silly Loli 've recently run into writer's block. After all, this is the worst thing about writing episodic stories. I'm just a newbie trying this out. So... why do I want to continue this kind of story?

Magical Girl Luming, Phantom Thief Luming, and the newly added Five-Dimensional Group —these are all things the author likes. I'm just a storyteller, so it's not surprising that I add some personal touches to the story. But it would be a bit foolish to keep fighting in an area I'm not good at.

I said a long time ago that I wanted to write something new. Traditional Honkai fanfiction has been overdone, and I don't want to write those plots that have been written by many people before. Instead, I want to write my own story.

I must be one of the few authors who dared to write about dying under the Luna from the very beginning, right?

Ahem, no offense intended. This book is a hybrid world spanning multiple dimensions, with the main plot revolving around Honkai. Here, you may see people and things from other works appear in a different way, and you may see the familiar ending or the ending you want to see.

The viewing experience might not be very good. This is my first time creating continuously, and my inspiration may become increasingly exhausted. Although I have already conceived the important parts of the plot, I am somewhat powerless when it comes to the transition parts.

(Great, why haven't the readers noticed yet? I'll add a few more words.)

By the way, remember to visualize the scenes in your mind while watching; it will enhance the viewing experience. If the Silly Loli weren't such a useless person with no special skills, I would have loved to draw some of the scenes.

By the way, some parts of the plot in this book may cause discomfort to readers, please forgive me.

(Five-dimensional fans, please type 1 in this post, and also tell us what kind of plot and songs you want to see.)

(Knight fans, type "1" in this thread and tell us what Knight Combination or enhanced forms of the Fire-Chasing Squad you'd like to see next. By the way, the Dragon Knights born in this world are stronger than the Ancient Dragon. Also, look forward to the rabbit-dragon fusion! A sneak peek: the author has created an original fusion form of a red rabbit and a blue dragon! cough This is the culmination of Bonded Weaponry. Celebrate! The book's awkwardly featured initial cheat code has finally been remembered by this Silly Loli.)

Am I being too nice to Kane? Is it because I have a special fondness for my own original character?

—The main feature begins—

The white fox and the purple wolf tracked down the enemy and pursued them all the way to a secluded luxury manor.

"Do rich people just like building houses in the suburbs?" Xing retorted, tilting her head to look at Cosmo. Amo was ruthless and didn't talk much. He kicked open the alloy door, and his orange X-shaped compound eyes exuded a dangerous aura.

"(Oh dear, are you angry?)" Xing smiled inwardly, without saying much. After seeing the mechanical soldiers surge out from inside like a tide, she dodged the spikes on her shoulder armor, patted Cosmo on the shoulder, and said, "I'll provide fire support. Fight to your heart's content."

The taciturn Cosmo had probably said enough for the night. After listening, he didn't answer directly, but instead reversed his armor, released the control skill of the Zombie Buckle, and then quickly rushed forward. His heavy footsteps pounded deep pits in the ground, and with a side kick from his right foot covered by Wild Claws, he wiped out the fragile mechanical soldiers.

Are these iron blocks too hot? No, it's that Cosmo is too strong.

The missile with its tail blazing roared in, but it exploded in mid-air before it even got close to Cosmo. Xing, who was leisurely taking a break behind, held his Magnum gun, switched to sniper mode, and took down the shooters one shot at a time.

Fortunately, she sensed something, raised her left hand, and the gun muzzle on her arm armor popped out, giving the ambushing enemy a surprise shot to the head. Before the attacker could recover, a small pink hammer hit it on the head, continuing to stun it.

"Hmm? This design... Jackal finally has a new monster? I wonder what kind of full bottle it will explode with." Sachi moved nimbly around to its back and gave it a hard slap on the neck, inflicting stun again.

Then, unleash your full power and reap the rewards!

"Magnum!" Tactical Blast!"

The powerful destructive beam pierced through the monster's body without any doubt, but Xing frowned. No, it was too weak. The real culprit shouldn't be it. Where was that brat?

—After becoming a girl, Sachi has grown to enjoy teasing innocent boys more and more—

The boy frantically grabbed the Card album and stuffed them into the box, cursing under his breath, "Damn it, those two guys were too fast! I have to hurry..."

A sword burning with blue flames plunged straight into the floor between his legs, startling him so much that he fell to the ground with a thud. Kane, in a terrible mood, kicked him aside, picked up the box, and said, "This must be what Luming wanted me to find, right? Hey kid, any more?"

"Who... who are you?" The boy looked at him, still in shock, a red light flashing in his eyes.

"You don't need to answer." Kane kicked him again, his face sour. Normally, he would never do something like this, bullying the weak, but the other person wasn't an innocent child, and besides, his partner was with another man...

With a combination of factors, Kane is now capable of going toe-to-toe with Danger Trigger.

Damn it! Even though Luming called me to come help halfway through, I'm still so angry!

Even through the armor, the boy could sense Kane's overwhelming resentment. Coincidentally, he was also quite resentful today!

Just as Kane, who had infiltrated the area, was about to catch Luming red-handed and claim credit, a bright light enveloped his vision. Upon closer inspection, he saw something that sent chills down his spine standing before him.

"Holy crap... a snake!!!"

Kane's screams echoed through the sky. The two people who had rushed in from the front to attract attention looked up. What happened? Had he really been thwarted again? Impossible, that brat wasn't that strong. Could it be that Jackal sent a new enemy?

As Luming pondered, her actions didn't stop. The purple Wolf Knight circled in mid-air, destroying nearby floating Honkai Beast. Below, Fox Lady fired a gun in one hand and swung a hammer in the other to provide a temporary foothold for Amo. Kane, who had been knocked away and was in freefall, became even angrier at the sight.

Burst Mode - Activate!!!

Illusory Dragon Wings unfurled behind him, and the Beat Closer ignited with blazing dragon flames. Kane quickly flew back and slashed the silver-black "snake" to pieces with a single blow. Upon closer inspection, one could see that the "snake" appeared to be a mechanical structure.

Kane conjured a dragon claw and pointed it at the boy who was hiding far away. "Hey kid, let me give you a friendly reminder: surrender obediently, or... you might die."

"Huh? Not necessarily~" The boy revealed a strange smile. He drew cards from his Duel Disk, placing three Monster Cards and one Spell Card on the board. "Let me show you the form of the strongest and most magnificent monster in history! Fusion Summon, appear, Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon!"

???

Kane was completely baffled until the enormous three-headed white dragon appeared in the sky. He suddenly realized that the information Luming had given him was wrong. Luming said that she had stripped the boy of his power, but was it not completely stripped away or... did this guy have more than one power?

Kane didn't have much time to think carefully. The boy stood atop the giant dragon's head, looking down at him with disdain in his eyes.

"Hmph, just a bigger bug." Kane sneered, spread his Dragon Wings into the sky. He swatted away the Burst Stream of Destruction with one claw, and the firelight illuminated the boy's astonished expression. This guy is too brutal! That's an attack power of 4500!

"Although it's only a first glimpse, I guess your ability is similar to one of my friend's forms, materializing things you imagine, but also having limitations." The dragon's tail lashed out at the right side of the dragon's head, drawing several bloody gashes from its white body. Kane flew above it, looking down at the boy and his creation, filling the hilt with a full bottle of phoenix, and red and blue phantom flames intertwined on the sword.

Although Kane didn't accept the full bottle from Luming Kane first, judging from his later skillful use of the full bottle's power, he was just pretending not to want to use it, but had already mastered a combo in his mind.

Here, I'd like to specifically criticize a certain captain who's known for his 55-point opening.

"I activate the Trap Card, Divine Shield - Mirror Force!"

The boy hurriedly summoned Trap Card, but the Dragon Knight's blade didn't falter at all. "I really like what a friend once said: Before absolute power—"

Click.

The shield that could deflect attacks was shattered by an attack exceeding its limit. The Dragon Knight, undeterred, charged towards it with unstoppable momentum, catching a glimpse of its three dragon heads gathering their power.

"Want to clash? Ha, bring it on... Wait, that guy's not targeting me!"

Kane quickly calculated the attack trajectory in his mind, and his face instantly turned pale. That guy's target was the city in the distance!

It's too late to change the direction of attack now. Even if it were possible, rashly accepting the enemy's attack would only put you at a disadvantage. As Luming once said, when the enemy takes hostages and demands that you put down your weapons, the best option is to kill the enemy as quickly as possible, even if it means killing the hostages as well.

After all, if you lay down your weapons, both you and the hostages will be in trouble; if you don't lay down your weapons, at least you'll be safe.

Although Kane couldn't do that, he quickly made a judgment at that moment.

The flames on the Dragon Knight's body burned even brighter. Come on, let's race against time and see if I can take you down first, or if you can launch the first attack!

Just as Kane was recklessly mobilizing the power of the Stigmata, a golden heavy blow struck the Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon (fake), forcing it to change its trajectory and shoot its breath into the dark night sky.

At the same time, Kane's blade slashed through its body, cutting it in two in mid-air. The remains shattered instantly, and the boy coughed up blood and fell to the ground.

"(Luming?)" Kane looked at the Falcon Lion Experimental Form of Build and was overjoyed, but he did not show any reaction on the surface. He just rushed down to save the boy. After all, it was a human life.

"Sorry to keep you waiting, the main character is here... Hey!" Idol Lady waved to her partner, but he ignored her and flew down. She stomped her feet in frustration in mid-air, then suddenly realized something and sighed, covering her forehead in resignation. "Sigh, he's still just a kid, it's normal for him to react like this... I guess I'm not a kid, am I? My mental age is already 20..."

(So, can Luming Lady actually be categorized as a caring older sister?)

The boy saw the Dragon Knight flying towards him and a disdainful look appeared on his lips. "Ha, I don't need your help. Watch closely, my last struggle! I'll activate Polymerization magic, Power Bond!"

The silver-black mechanical monster crushed the manor buildings. Cosmo, who had avoided it early on, looked up at the enormous three-headed monster with stars in his eyes, "... Cool."

Kane screamed in terror the moment he saw the monster, frantically trying to climb upwards as he was flying downwards. "Holy crap! Holy crap! Holy crap! Holy crap! Holy crap! It's that snake again, and this time it has two heads and a pair of wings! Get away from me!!!"

Fortunately, his face darkened as he flew over and punched him. "Snake my ass! This is called Cyber Dragon! What you see now is the Cyber Dragon Tri-Body Polymerization Form— Cyber End Dragon. Remember that, or I can't afford to lose face like this..."

"So, is the Cyber Dragon a dragon or a machine?" Kane asked, rubbing his head in frustration.

Luming rolled her eyes, almost fainting from anger at this bizarre partner. "Idiot! You've been playing cards these past few days, and if this gets out, people will laugh you to death!"

Sensing his partner's anger, Kane obediently shut his mouth, while also lightly nudging her with his elbow to express his displeasure. Normally, Kane wouldn't dare hit Luming, not even lightly.

Luming didn't argue with him. "Give me the Phoenix Bottle temporarily. I'll ask you a question: when facing machine-type enemies, do you know the most effective way to defeat them?"

"I know, alternating between hot and cold attacks!" Kane answered quickly. Luming nodded approvingly and added, "However, we don't have any full bottles of ice-type potions on hand right now, so let's use a high-temperature armor-piercing attack this time!"

Build Rider switched to its optimal form, the Phoenix Robot, and Kane's dragon body became increasingly solid. The boy gritted his teeth and activated his final card, "Limiter Removal! I'll show you my last..."

The combined attack of the dragon and phoenix and the jet of the Cyber End Dragon were locked in a brief stalemate in the air before the dragon charged toward it with unstoppable force. The exploding Cyber End Dragon was the last thing the boy saw before he lost consciousness.

——Visit the Gate——

Is it wrong to have passion?

When his parents angrily forced him to tear up all the cards he had collected bit by bit, no matter how much he begged, they were unmoved. They even recorded the scene while forcing him to do it, saying they wanted to teach him a profound lesson.

I just like these cards, what's wrong with that?

His classmates mocked him, saying that while everyone else in the class was playing, they only targeted him because he was a transfer student from out of town and didn't fit in.

The thugs bullied him, looked down on his hobbies, and when they robbed him of his money, they would always crumple up the cards in his bag in front of him and crush them under their feet.

These days will never end, until...

He didn't remember when he was taken to that lab. He only remembered that after a period of indescribable pain, the woman wearing the dog-head mask looked at him with surprise, like a single woman who had been starving for a long time looking at a strong and healthy young man.

His life was completely changed.

Back home, before his parents could even scold him for being away for several days, he sealed the card inside and then put it into the shredder like a piece of waste paper.

His classmates who mocked him, his teachers who were indifferent to his plight, the thugs who bullied him... none of these people will escape!

The abilities he gained in the experiment, besides creating a space where time almost stands still to seal living beings, also include the ability to materialize imagination, but both of these abilities have certain limits.

He originally intended to use this power to do good deeds, just like the heroes in comics. It was those fictional characters who filled his heart during his most desperate moments.

Unfortunately, he had no choice.

—This book contains no reflections of reality—

On the ruins of the manor, the police officers who came to investigate looked at each other, unsure of where to begin.

On a suburban road, the girl helped her exhausted partner, who was acting strangely today, trying to break free of her hand. "Let go, go find your new partner. I still have the strength to walk!"

Note: Fortunately, I made up an excuse to send Amo home first.

"Pfft~" The girl couldn't help but laugh at her sulking partner. Kane's face turned red. "Hey, what's so funny?!"

Idol Lady was a little helpless. She hooked her arm around his neck and hugged him under her armpits in a very bold manner.

(Please imagine the scene of Hokuto holding down Manyo in your mind, cough cough, Luming is not as tall Kane)

"Eh! Eh! Eh!" Kane's face turned even redder. The feeling of being in close contact with his partner stimulated his brain. The fresh fragrance was intoxicating, and there was that soft touch...

Kane is about to crash

"You..." Luming gently stroked the boy's head with her free hand, like a mother comforting a child. "I'm usually pretty good to you, aren't I? Why are you jealous of Cosmo? You're the first male friend I've ever had, the very first one!"

"Is this... is that so?!" Kane's face turned bright red, and his mind was in complete chaos. For a moment, he didn't even know what to say.

Wait a minute, since I'm Luming's first male friend, who is the person she likes?

Kane Watson discovered a blind spot—it's chilling to think about!

"(No, the shop manager told me that Luming had a boyfriend before Luming officially accepted me, so... does Luming not consider her lover as a friend?)"

Kane's ability to remain calm and think rationally amidst the chaos is commendable, but Natasha's original words were "The little guy has someone he likes," which he seems to have misunderstood.

"Hmm~ How does it feel to have my head patted, Kane?" the girl teased, her delicate fingers lightly brushing his cheek. "(I'm starting to understand why the Miko enjoys teasing Goro so much; it really does feel quite pleasant~)"

(Readers, please imagine the scene of a gentle and kind young boy comforting his best friend; that way, it won't feel so out of place.)

"... Yes, it's really good, but you should let me go first. If this continues, I'm afraid I'll pass out first." Kane patted his dazed mind and distanced himself from her. Damn it, why am I developing feelings for my partner? Kane Kaslana, you bastard, have you forgotten Julia?!

The boy turned away awkwardly, not daring to face Luming directly. It would be bad if she found out. He would wait until his anger subsided before talking about it. He didn't know why, but every time he got too close to Luming, he couldn't control his physical reaction. Was it because of his constitution?

Luming Lady watched him from behind, smiling without saying a word. She used a handkerchief to wipe her hand that had just touched his hair with disgust. "Too oily, isn't it? You'd better wash your hair properly when you get home tonight!"

"By the way, Luming, did you correct his memories and save all the people he turned into cards?" Kane suddenly remembered this question.

After a moment of silence, he said, "Except for those who truly deserved to die, most of them were saved..."

What about the smaller portion?

Kane knew the answer to the question perfectly well. He gazed quietly at the girl with her head down and sighed silently.

"Let's go, Luming." He took her hand. "We can't save everyone, that's what you told me."

"...Um."

"Don't worry, no matter what, I will always be one of your most loyal and strongest partners... Kiana and the others are pretty strong too."

"Pfft! You're actually quite self-aware."

"Of course, one should be honest, as you yourself have said."

"Haha, that's true, but sometimes you have to lie."

"Oh, right, Luming."

"Um?"

"Sometimes, don't shoulder everything alone. No matter how strong you are, you'll still bleed..."

"... At least they won't bleed, and that's enough for me."

The boy didn't say anything more, and the two walked side by side, holding hands.

"(You mean 'them,' so it's okay for me to bleed a little for you, right?)"

Kane wasn't stupid. There were only two kinds of people in the Kaslana Family: those who used their brains and those who didn't. Through their time together, he had already figured out some aspects of this girl.

Luming values emotions highly, but she also seems to have a bit of... lack of love?

At the same time, she doesn't act like a typical girl; Luming treats men and women equally.

Kane had never held her hand before, but Luming didn't object, which speaks volumes.

There were many other things, Kane kept them all in his mind. In the end, he summarized that Luming had the delicate gentleness of a woman, the strength and straightforwardness of a man, a touch of maternal care, and the charm of a married woman... It seems like something strange has been mixed in?

(The sleeping mother-in-law's soul suddenly shivered.)

But one thing Kane was certain of was that Chen Xilumeng didn't cherish herself at all.

Author's Note—

To reiterate, there was no marriage arrangement; the relationship between these two is similar to that of Yugi Muto and Atem—soulmates.

Don't assume I'm distorting the relationship just because you see the word "partner." This is a friendship that transcends friendship and love; it's a tacit understanding that comes from the soul.

When facing Kiana and the others, Xing would subconsciously hide a lot of things, but she could be more open with Kane and often said things that would shatter Kiana and the others' worldviews. This led to a serious problem— Kane knew the real Xing better than the Fire-Chasing Squad.

This also led to a result: Kane and Happiness's bond caught up with the Fire-Chasing Squad's accumulation in a short period of time, and even showed a trend of surpassing it.

Kane's favorability rating towards Luming: 90

Fortunately, his favorability towards Kane is 85.
