The Weakness.

"Yes!"

Amber responded and immediately assigned the work. Not hearing Otto's follow-up question, she asked hesitantly.

"Your Lord Bishop, should we put the Valkyrie troops of the Far East Branch on high alert?"

"Um...

No need. Just get Theresa ready to attack.

After a moment's thought, Otto shook his head slightly and gave the order.

Not long after the order was delivered to the Far East Branch, Theresa had just finished donning her Valkyrie armor and was carrying Judah, preparing to board the warship for an attack, when Gwen pushed open the door and entered, his eyes meeting Theresa's.

"You're back?"

Theresa, momentarily at a loss for words, asked blankly.

"Yes, the test is complete. Of course, I need to come and report to you to avoid any unnecessary misunderstandings."

Gwen, who had just escorted Kiana and Mei back to their temporary residence, smiled and pulled Theresa back to the command room.

Even without activating the Third Order Gene Lock to simulate it, Gwen could guess the reason for Theresa's military attire.

Next, Gwen spent a few minutes spouting nonsense under Theresa and Himeko's "you're kidding me" gazes.

Are you sure you want to write it like this in the report?

Himeko, who still remembered Gwen as "steady," rubbed her forehead and asked him, somewhat speechless.

"Sure."

Gwen smiled and nodded in affirmation.

"As for the specifics, I will report to Bishop Otto when I return to headquarters."

"All right."

Upon hearing Gwen's words, Himeko instantly had no more doubts, tapped to confirm, and submitted the report.

Although ending the investigation so hastily was somewhat irresponsible to the Far East Branch, Himeko's years of experience as the acting head of the Far East Branch made Himeko clearly realize that it was best not to ask too many questions about matters directly under Bishop Otto's command.

"I'm sorry, Major Himeko, for keeping you busy for so long right after you got back."

Looking at Himeko's faint dark circles, Gwen said with a hint of apology.

"It's nothing, I'm used to it."

Upon hearing this, Himeko smiled, stood up from her chair, stretched, and revealed a figure that no girl could ever hope to achieve.

"It's much easier than the days of rushing to finish work under the last minute."

As for why they had to rush to finish the project before the deadline, you'd have to ask Theresa, who was sitting next to Gwen with her head bowed.

"It's not good for your health in the end..."

Gwen shook his head, stood up, and took his leave.

"It's getting late, so I won't disturb you any longer. Theresa, Major Himeko, you should get some rest as well."

"Good night."

Himeko smiled and waved to Gwen upon hearing this.

However, before Gwen could leave the room, Himeko called him Gwen—

"Etc!"

"Um?"

Gwen turned around in confusion and saw Himeko's somewhat bewildered expression.

"Headquarters just sent instructions that Gwen, you can take a break after you have completed your assigned tasks."

However, when you return to headquarters, you will need to bring back a piece of equipment from the Far East Branch ..."

Himeko somewhat grave, spoke, her gaze shifting to Theresa, who was also looking at her with a puzzled expression—

"The Oath of Judah".

"What!"

Instantly, Theresa jumped up in excitement.

"Theresa, don't panic—"

Seeing Theresa's predictable reaction, Himeko placed her hands together in an attempt to soothe her old friend—

"According to the instructions, headquarters does not intend to completely reclaim your right to use and hold the Oath of Judah Theresa. It just needs to use Judah to assist in some experiments."

"..."

Hearing Himeko's explanation, Theresa calmed down a bit, darted over to Himeko's side with her short legs, and quickly scanned the instructions on the screen.

Otto's earlier "frankness" towards Theresa still had its effect. After reading the vague mission description, Theresa didn't continue to fuss. Instead, after thinking for a moment, she looked up at Gwen, who was looking this way by the door, and forced a smile.

"Gwen, you've been running back and forth between headquarters and St. Freya today, and you've carried out so many experiments. Go and get some rest."

I'll talk to Grandpa for a bit, and I'll give you an answer tomorrow morning.

"Okay, then I'll be going now."

Gwen nodded upon hearing this, then turned and left, leaving Theresa to her own devices.

There are certain things Theresa can say and vent to her close friend Himeko, but she absolutely cannot say them to him.

Returning to his room with practiced ease, Gwen wasn't in a hurry to sleep. He placed the Heavenly Fire Judgment on his bedside table and prepared to review what he had gained that night.

Although Gwen achieved a near-overwhelming victory in his battle against Siegfried, the process—whether it was the ever-renewing barrier under the five elements cycle, the youthful version of Absolute Annihilation, or the later process of activating Heavenly Fire Judgment to An-Utu mode—is all worth Gwen.

However, just as Gwen was lost in memories and thoughts, Sword Heart Gwen, sensing something, suddenly felt a jolt in his heart and realized that someone was watching him.

Gwen subconsciously opened his eyes and met a pair of mysterious and beautiful purple eyes, which seemed to be immersed in a lake of deep, unyielding sorrow.

Even though it appeared in such a bizarre way—a pair of eyes floating in front of the wall—that it could be the subject of a whole movie in itself, the almost indifferent sadness in those eyes still overshadowed the eeriness of its appearance in Gwen's eyes.

However, despite being moved by the sorrow in his heart, Gwen still picked up the Heavenly Fire Judgment from the bedside table and lowered the muzzle.

301

Chapter 301 Weakness.

"Unknown guest, since we've met, why not show yourself and have a chat?"

Smiling as he invited the other party to show themselves, Gwen had already begun to recall all the Honkai Impact 3rd storylines he had ever read.

In Gwen's memory, although there were some bizarre and strange things in the game's storyline, they basically only existed in nonsensical event storylines.

Based on Gwen's experience over the past few years, he believes that he is in a relatively logical world, except for some people and things affected by the Honkai.

So, where did this ghost... this unknown entity in front of us come from?

After briefly sensing the vague and indistinct aura of the being opposite him, Gwen silently dismissed the idea that it was some kind of earthbound spirit or ghost.

If even the staff quarters of the St. Freya Academy had such earthbound spirits, then this world wouldn't be Honkai Impact 3rd, but Harry Potter.

"So... who could it be?"

Logically, with Prometheus around, there shouldn't be any more bizarre Herrscher appearing..."

While his mind raced with thought, Gwen maintained his composed smile, revealing not a trace of change in expression.

Unless he is facing the Finality or a strange new type of Herrscher who is at his peak from the start and whose powers correspond exactly to what he has learned, he will not lose.

After all, even though his current potential is not as high as Kevin's, Gwen is still more well-rounded than Kevin in the Previous Civilization, without any fatal weaknesses that enemies can exploit.

"..."

Upon receiving Gwen's invitation, the pair of purple eyes paused slightly, seemingly surprised that Gwen could see them, but they were not prepared to accept Gwen's invitation to appear.

However, just before she closed her eyes, her gaze fell precisely on the Heavenly Fire Judgment in Gwen's hand.

The sight of the Dual Pistols awakened a certain emotion within her core Remembrance, preventing her from leaving immediately as she had initially intended.

After exchanging a glance with Gwen for a moment, the newcomer sighed but ultimately did not leave.

Amidst a terrifying yet remarkably restrained Honkai Energy that even Gwen couldn't help but glance at, and which Welt Yang, separated by a wall, remained completely unaware of, a slender figure emerged in the room.

The woman, whose white hair had a faint purple tinge reminiscent of Honkai Energy, and whose delicate face carried a deep-seated indifference, was quietly watching Gwen of keeping people at a distance.

However, Gwen always felt that the other party's gaze was more focused on the Heavenly Fire Judgment in his hand.

Upon seeing the other person's appearance, which was almost identical to Cecilia's that he had seen in textbooks and Schicksal's internal database, Gwen's doubts instantly vanished, and he confirmed the other person's identity.

The being who can give Gwen such an unfathomable feeling and appear in such a strange form can only be one person.

Or rather... the ideal type— Misterine, World Serpent executive, codenamed Feather Rabbit.

"You seem to care about them a lot."

Noticing that Misterine's gaze was fixed on the Heavenly Fire Judgment, Gwen raised his hands, the Dual Pistols lying quietly in his hands, their cores, split in two and placed in the Dual Pistols, still gleaming red under the light.

"... a little."

Misterine readily admitted this, but her gaze had already shifted from the Heavenly Fire Judgment to Gwen.

"Not long ago... for no more than half an hour, I had a match with him, and after exchanging ideas, we reached a consensus, and they were handed over to me."

Seeing those sorrowful purple eyes looking at him, Gwen also put away the Heavenly Fire Judgment.

"With your strength, even if you didn't notice the change in the night, you should have been able to sense the fluctuations from our previous battle."

With that, Gwen got out of bed and poured a glass of hot water for the unexpected guest.

"..."

Misterine, who had just returned to the Eigenworld from the Imaginary Space a few minutes earlier, did not explain her situation upon hearing this, but simply looked at the water that Gwen had brought to her.

No flavorings were added, just readily available warm water.

However, seemingly because her Remembrance, long buried by countless sorrows and pains, were being touched, Misterine stared blankly at the glass of warm water.

"Okay, it seems you don't want to talk about it..."

Seeing Misterine's expression, Gwyn assumed she wasn't going to answer him Gwen smiled, taking a sip of warm water from his cup.

"Let me introduce myself. Gwen... well, my full name on the file is Gwen Caslana, just call me Gwen, Schicksal A-Class Knight."

"Yes, I've seen your information."

Upon hearing Gwen's self-introduction, Misterine quickly snapped out of her daze and looked up to Gwen's gaze.

"My name is Misterine, and other than that... I'm sorry, I'm temporarily ****."

"Of course, that's your freedom."

Gwen smiled dismissively.

"Now that we've met, let's not just stand here. Sit down and talk."

"No..."

Misterine, however, had no intention of continuing her conversation with Gwen and gently shook her head.

"Now that we've met, I should leave."

"But I think I have some news here that might interest you—"

Seeing that Misterine had no intention of communicating, Gwen tried to speak up to persuade her to stay.

However, Misterine remained unmoved, and her figure quickly vanished as the glass of warm water on the table swayed slightly.

Seeing this, Gwen had no choice but to play his trump card—

"For example, Alexandra's daughter."

In an instant, Gwen could feel the air freeze.

The next moment, a Honkai Energy suddenly erupted, and the resulting gale caused the glass of warm water on the table to spill out.

Misterine suddenly appeared in front of Gwen, grabbing his Gwen with one hand and staring intently at Gwen.

"What's wrong with her?"

Even though she thinks of that person almost every day, Misterine still can't control her emotions when she hears that name from someone else again.

"She... is not very good."
