Any weapon that approached the Herrscher of Rock would be drawn in by the black hole.

Flame Chasers found themselves powerless for a time. After discussion, they decided to restart the Divine Keys project.

With the technical foundation accumulated from the previous Divine Keys, Vill-V quickly developed the Seventh Divine Key—Feather of Judgment.

The excessive temperature meant that only three people were compatible with it—Kevin, Yoshikage Kira, and Himiko.

Yoshikage Kira would not choose to expose himself to humanity's sight, leaving only two options.

Himiko donned full-body armor and gripped Feather of Judgment. Her Stand seemed to respond, unexpectedly attaching itself to Feather of Judgment.

In an instant, towering flames burst from Feather of Judgment. Fortunately, Vill-V's specially made testing ground was sturdy enough, and Kevin's frost weakened the flames, so the trial caused no losses.

Afterward, Kevin tested it as well, but it did not display the tremendous power Himiko had shown.

"Since then, this is my first mission."

"By the way, what's with you two? Ever since you came back, you seem to be... well, at odds?"

"Nothing. Get ready to work with Kevin and kill the Herrscher." As Yoshikage Kira spoke, he could tell that no one wanted to dwell on the matter, so Himiko did not bring it up again.

The black hole created by the Herrscher of Rock kept sinking, destroying Earth's internal structure.

In contrast, the black hole's gravitational pull on the surface was steadily weakening.

After that, the Herrscher of Rock did not release another black hole.

To ensure the attack landed with absolute certainty, Kevin, who could withstand Feather of Judgment, would restrain the Herrscher, after which Himiko would use Feather of Judgment to eliminate her.

Everyone circled overhead, waiting for the best opportunity.

Mei watched the data flickering across the screen and gave the order when gravity fell below the threshold.

"Now, everyone. You may attack."

Kevin charged toward the Herrscher while controlling solid ice to seal off her retreat.

Seeing that there was nowhere to retreat, the Herrscher of Rock raised her hand and altered the direction of the sinking black hole.

"Not good! Kevin, the gravitational interference has appeared again! Eliminate the Herrscher quickly," Mei said anxiously.

Kevin felt the pull acting on his body and fully unleashed the potential of the Honkai Beast genes within him.

Power continuously surged forth, but Honkai Beast organs gradually began growing on Kevin's body.

There's no time. Seeing Himiko activate Feather of Judgment's rated power, Yoshikage Kira directly picked her up.

"Hey, hey, hey! What are you doing?"

"If you fly over there yourself, it'll be too late." With that, Yoshikage Kira adjusted his angle and hurled Himiko toward the Herrscher with all his strength.

Himiko truly was a battle-hardened warrior. She immediately adjusted her angle and launched an attack at the Herrscher.

"Feather of Judgment, unsheathe!"

Afterward, the two fell into the sea, along with the Herrscher Core of the Herrscher of Rock.

Thus, the Ninth Honkai War came to an end.

The Herrscher of Rock could not rise again.

In the battle against the Herrscher of Rock, Mu Continent—the continent with humanity's most advanced technology—completely sank.

Sinking with it was humanity's hope of fighting the Honkai.

After the Ninth Honkai War, the world's total population was less than one-sixth of its former number.

Human society's structure completely collapsed, and a wave of hedonism swept through society for a time.

Mobius began researching the "breakdown" state Kevin had displayed while fighting the Herrscher of Rock.

The Divine Keys project was restarted once again because of Feather of Judgment's terrifying power, and Vill-V began developing the Sixth Divine Key—Black Abyss White Flower.

At the same time, due to the reduction in human habitation, the Australia Continent reconstruction plan was proposed.

Vill-V improved Armed Doll technology and, together with Mobius, developed bionic robots for the reconstruction of Australia Continent.

As usual, you repeated your disciplined daily life.

Other people's opinions of you? Who cared?

"Boss, I want cake!" The girl pounced onto the back of Yoshikage Kira, who was reading, demanding dessert after dinner.

Yoshikage Kira patted Pardo's head, smiled, and got up to make her a cake.

Seeing Yoshikage Kira preparing to make cake, Elysia opened her mouth.

But even after Yoshikage Kira entered the kitchen, Elysia did not say anything.
