Drawing the Sword of Flames! Farewell, Queen!
"Kind-hearted people keep appearing and being passed down from generation to generation. Even if their ending is not beautiful, they have a clear conscience and live an upright life."
"Many people around me have done the same thing, and it is because of her and their choices that I am able to stand here. So I am willing to believe in their ideals and what they are protecting."
"As long as I stand here, her burning, their burning, will continue forever."
I was stunned.
All the viewers were stunned by Kiana's answer.
Despite this harsh reality, Kiana still cherishes hope and resolutely pursues the light of beauty.
Perhaps the Herrscher of the Void only noticed the darkness of humanity, but failed to notice its opposite: humanity also has a kind side.
Kiana is that kind of person.
Even if there is only a faint ray of light in the world, she will do everything in her power to save it.
"Kiana... Waaah..."
Elysia cried.
Tears were not shed out of sadness, but out of deep emotion.
Witnessing Kiana's growth from an innocent girl to the resolute warrior she is today.
I believe the audience shares the same thoughts as Elysia.

Chapter 413 The Flame of Fire Draws the Sword! Respectfully bidding farewell to the Queen!
The world kissed me with pain, but I responded with a song.
Kiana's answer truly exemplified this statement.
But Tagore's original words were. "The world kisses me with pain, yet expects me to repay it with song."
"Kiana has really been through so much..."
Pardo cried her eyes out.
From the shooting star streaking across the night sky to the thunderous roar echoing through the heavens, Kiana's mindset shifted from initial self-abandonment to a willingness to fight against the Honkai with the thought of mutual destruction.
Then, upon witnessing Fu Hua's self-sacrifice, he finally understood that sacrifice was not the only path to protection; only by living could one inherit Himeko's legacy.
May we fight for all that is good in the world.
If it weren't for all of this, Kiana wouldn't be arguing with Sirin right now; she would be fighting directly. The best outcome would be that both of them would be seriously injured, and the worst outcome would be... mutual destruction.
"Well."
Sakura sighed.
She couldn't understand why, despite the script being created by multiple screenwriters, the portrayal of Kiana was surprisingly consistent.
It was Otto, the author of "The Final Lesson," a respectable teacher who gave up his own chance to live to save his students who had "fallen into darkness."
It was Yaqing, the author of "Celestial Meteor," who, risking her life, embraced the Honkai Fission Bomb and soared into the sky, saving the entire city of Sky Dome City.
It was Old Yang again who wrote "Sinners Elegy." The departure of his beloved awakened the self-destructive girl, reminding her that protection is not sacrifice.
Three different screenwriters have created a resilient warrior who fights for all the good things in the world, making him both admirable and heartbreaking.
Sakura turned her head and gave Yaqing a deep look.
Although she didn't know why Sakura was suddenly looking at her, Yaqing still subconsciously gave a polite smile.
Sakura seemed to understand something and nodded.
Yaqing was completely baffled by this scene.
He felt that the people around him seemed to have become a little strange.
"Full marks."
Su opened her eyes, her purplish-red pupils filled with admiration.
"Honkai is really positive and uplifting."
Su sighed.
Honkai's main concept can be summed up in one sentence: fight for all that is good in the world, exactly the same as what Yaqing said, a "hot-blooded" story of a beautiful girl saving the world!
Kevin's gaze towards Sue changed.
He had reason to suspect that his close friend had been driven mad by the knife.
Everyone present had the same doubts when they heard Su's words, but only Yaqing seemed like a child who had finally received recognition.
"Well..."
Mei forced a smile.
"Keep watching, keep watching."
After Kiana's firm answer, the two of them realized that there was no possibility of persuading each other in the first place.
Therefore, Kiana and the Herrscher of the Void spoke in unison.
"There is no room for us to be compatible, nor is there any possibility of mutual understanding."
Only one of Kiana and the Void Herrscher could survive, so there was no need for further discussion. The Herrscher of the Void stretched out her hand and made a gesture familiar to the audience, snapping her fingers.
"This is the moment of Judgement!"
Kiana was naturally unafraid and faced the challenge head-on, believing that she would never lose to the Herrscher of the Void.
After a short while, the Herrscher of the Void snapped her fingers again, summoning Benares's phantom once more.
But soon she realized that Benares was just flapping his wings in the air and did not seem to be launching an attack. Not only was the Herrscher of the Void not expected this, but the audience was also surprised.
Kiana, however, understood why.
Because Bella is Sirin's friend, she has unreserved goodwill towards Sirin and naturally hopes that Sirin can find happiness.
They are both Sirin, just on different paths.
The Herrscher of the Void has only the desire to destroy this world, while Kiana protects what she believes in.
"In Bella's eyes, who is closer to the person Sirin wants to be, you or me?"
"She doesn't want us to fight, and she wants to save you too."
"She wants you to let go of your hatred and find happiness. The choice she made is the one she wanted to see in Sirin!"
Enraged by Benares's disobedience, the Herrscher of the Void unleashed a Spear of the Void, piercing Benares's massive body.
Benares let out a mournful cry, ceased flapping its wings, and crashed heavily onto the platform that Theater of Domination.
Kiana's shocked expression revealed her disbelief that the self-proclaimed Herrscher of the Void, Sirin, would be so ruthless as to attack Benares.
"Bang!"
A sudden noise startled Bella.
Looking in that direction, you can see Sirin gritting her teeth, her hand slamming on the table, her palm already red.
"This isn't me! The real Sirin would never lay a hand on Bella, never!!!"
Sirin, like a cat with its fur standing on end, let out a series of low growls.
She was really angry.
She would not allow anyone to use her name and identity to hurt her best friend.
"I know, Sirin, I know."
Bella grabbed Sirin's hand and looked at her reddened palm with heartache.
Does it hurt?
"From anger."
Sirin looked at Bella and laughed heartily.
It's exactly the same as Kiana's silly smile.
Two small heads, one red and one blue, peeked out from the bedroom doorway.
"Lilia, Lilia, what do you think they're doing?"
"Stupid Rosalia..."
Lilia's face turned slightly red.
"Lilia is the idiot!"
"Shh, keep your voice down."
Unlike the Vodka Sisters who were spying, there was a moment of silence in the Golden Courtyard's Home Theater, not from speechlessness, but from extreme anger.
"Damn it, how could they treat Bella like that!"
Pardo was filled with indignation.
The line before the Sinners Elegy, "Your Queen, I want... to hear you call my name one more time," evoked complex emotions within them.
Looking at Benares now, they always remember that Bella was just a girl who wanted to hear Sirin call her name one more time.
Bella could be a world-destroying dragon hated by humans because that was Sirin's choice, but if she could choose again, she would hope that "Sirin" could have a happy ending.
"Hmph, scum, a piece of trash who can't even recognize himself, doesn't even have the right to cowardly survive. He should be torn to pieces and burned to ashes!"
Kalpas snorted coldly.
Bella's loyalty is ingrained in her bones. It is precisely because the audience saw Bella's loyalty to Sirin that they felt angry at the Herrscher of the Void claimed to be Sirin for attacking Bella.
From this moment on, in the argument that Kiana and the Herrscher of the Void are extensions of Sirin, Kiana has won.
Because Sirin would never lay a hand on Bella.
Having dealt with Benares, who had "betrayed" her, the Herrscher of the Void turned her attention back to Kiana, raising her hand to seize the Herrscher Authority from Kiana.
Kiana covered her golden eye, which gradually turned back into a free, sky-blue. She could hardly believe that her power had been taken away so easily.
"Now, let's have a fair and just duel."
The Herrscher of the Void casually raised her hand, displaying her arrogance.
"What kind of fairness is this?!"
Kevin's eyes widened, and he almost couldn't hold back his swearing.
Kiana, whose Herrscher Authority have been taken away, how can she possibly fight against the Herrscher of the Void?
Isn't this pure White Comet?
"There should be a twist... right?"
Mei is also unsure.
"Let Kiana fight the Herrscher of the Void with her own power. It's like an egg hitting a rock; it will shatter at the first touch."
Su touched her chin and opened her eyes.
"Stop playing, everyone!"
If there were a table in front of Pardo right now, the Kitty would flip it over without hesitation.
"It is indeed a bit... barely."
Sakura's lips twitched.
Kiana, having lost her Herrscher Authority, faced an extremely difficult battle against the Herrscher of the Void, teetering on the brink of death several times. Each time she managed to struggle to her feet, her attacks were no different from tickling the Herrscher of the Void.
Not even a single scratch was left.
The Herrscher of the Void couldn't understand why Kiana wouldn't give up even though she was already covered in wounds. Why would she continue fighting when she knew the gap between them? Did she really think she could defeat her in this desperate situation?
"Open your eyes and look! You have nothing left! What's the point of struggling anymore?"
"Perhaps... it is true, as you say, that I am powerless now and am just wasting my energy."
Kiana's face was etched with exhaustion and pain. Her legs were trembling and her body was shaking. She could barely stand, but the fighting spirit burning in her eyes could not be extinguished.
"But... whenever I fall to the ground, in so much pain that I want to give up, I inexplicably remember a lot of things."
