Herta Is Startled.

Theresa looked at everyone's curious gazes. She hesitated for a moment, but seeing that even the most suspicious Welt chose to trust Asta and Herta, she nodded.

"Actually, just like Mr. Welt, I come from a distant world. I was forced to come here for some reasons, and I was even salvaged from the cosmos by the Express Crew."

Theresa looked at the Express Crew as she spoke.

"Right, right, me too! Except I was wrapped in Six Forms Ice, and she was wrapped in an air bubble."

March 7th exclaimed excitedly.

"So you and Mr. Welt are actually from the same hometown? Then that cross you summoned earlier—is it also a product of your homeland?"

Herta asked curiously.

"Yes. The Oath of Judah, the Eleventh Divine Key of the Previous Civilization. It was created from a lifeform that mastered the ultimate rules of physics—a Herrscher."

"The Oath of Judah was forged from the Herrscher Core of the Herrscher of Binding, combined with Soul Steel."

"And I'm not afraid to scare you: every single Herrscher is no weaker than that Doomsday Beast just now—provided they know how to use their authority."

"Herrscher of Reason: reconstructs and replicates all things. Herrscher of Void: teleportation and spatial attacks. Herrscher of Thunder: controls magnetic fields and lightning. Herrscher of Wind: controls all fluids and flows. Herrscher of Ice: slows molecular motion to create cryogenic environments. Herrscher of Death: wields the authority of creation and decay. Herrscher of Flames: extreme destructive power and heat through molecular acceleration."

"Herrscher of Rock: controls planetary gravity, condenses Quasi-Black Holes that devour all things. Herrscher of Sentience: controls consciousness, thought, and spirit. Herrscher of Thousand: can split into a thousand individual Herrschers, or renormalize into the singular Herrscher of Domination, possessing the power to assimilate other authorities. Herrscher of Binding: can bind all energy, suppress all energy output, and absorb all energy. Herrscher of Erosion: an ultimate virus capable of eroding any lifeform or machine."

"None of them are weaker than that Doomsday Beast. And then there's the most powerful one—the Herrscher of Finality, which gathers all the authorities I just mentioned. It is the aggregate of all Herrschers, or rather, the most complete Herrscher. An ultimate existence that can easily destroy human civilization, no weaker than an Emanator."

"If not for the restriction of Finality's Cocoon, calling it an Aeon wouldn't be impossible. In our civilization, every era must undergo a baptism called the Honkai."

Theresa's serious expression silenced the Honkai: Star Rail universe's people. Compared to Theresa and Welt's world, the Antimatter Legion suddenly didn't seem so terrifying?

"This is completely trying to wipe out civilization! Uncle Yang, you and Theresa actually come from such a terrifying world!"

March 7th shouted in fear. Stelle, Himeko, and Dan Heng were also silent.

"No, that's not all. It's said that above the Herrscher of Finality, there is a god called the Honkai Will. It can grant anyone the power to become a Herrscher, but the price is becoming a puppet of the Honkai."

Theresa explained, looking at everyone who was already numb.

"Not only that, but below the Herrschers, there are beings called Honkai Beasts. Starting from the Assault-type with a three-meter wingspan, there are also Knight-type, Ballista-type, Chariot-type, Temple-type, Emperor-type, and Judgement-type. The first five are lower-level Honkai Beasts; Emperor-type and Judgement-type are upper-level."

"The further down the line, the larger their size. It's said that in the Previous Civilization of our homeland, even a Chariot-type Honkai Beast could be fifty meters tall and thirty meters wide. The Honkai Beasts of our current era are all weakened versions."

"Even so, Emperor-type Honkai Beasts are at least two to three hundred meters in size. Judgement-types range from five hundred meters for the weaker ones, to a kilometer for the stronger ones. It's said that in ancient Shenzhou, a Judgement-type Honkai Beast named Chi You was born, feeding on continents to survive. Its size reached ten thousand meters—a complete giant mountain."

Welt smiled bitterly as he told everyone.

"Ahaha... your civilization sure is resilient."

Asta laughed awkwardly and wryly. She finally understood why Theresa and Welt were so strong—if they weren't, they'd have been wiped out long ago, right?

"Unbelievable. Your homeland managed to survive such an outrageous Honkai. So, Theresa, your weapon is a Divine Key made from the Herrscher of Binding's core, right? Can anyone use this weapon?"

Herta asked curiously. After all, everyone has curiosity—such a powerful weapon would tempt anyone.

"Ordinary people don't qualify to test it. The Oath of Judah chooses its user. Just its weight alone is half a ton, and it requires someone with Honkai energy adaptability to wield it. Honkai energy is a unique energy from our homeland, highly corrosive. Even a tiny leak can reduce an ordinary person without Honkai resistance to ashes."

"Let alone a Divine Key made from a Herrscher Core. It's the most terrifying weapon. Ordinary people have no right to use it."

Theresa explained. Herta looked at the Oath of Judah reluctantly—she was really curious about it.

"I strongly advise you, Miss Herta, to curb your desire to research it. Once you start studying items from our world, be careful not to draw Its gaze. You don't want a full-scale Honkai outbreak across the entire galaxy, do you? Even the Interastral Peace Corporation couldn't suppress such a catastrophe!"

Welt said to Herta seriously.

"Yes. Old Yang isn't joking. Once you start researching Honkai creations, the Honkai will descend here. Besides our Express Crew, everything here will be reduced to ashes by a massive Honkai energy eruption, and then an individual called a Herrscher will be born. And since there's no Finality's Cocoon here to restrict it, the Herrscher's strength would likely be no weaker than an Emanator!"

Theresa's words made Herta go numb. She nodded reluctantly. There was no other way—as the second-to-last seat of the Genius Society, she always wanted to prove herself and improve her ranking.

But she really didn't dare to gamble. Not with the lives of the entire galaxy as the stakes.

"Forget it, forget it. I really don't dare to gamble like that. I'm not crazy enough to stake the lives of an entire galaxy. Asta, from today on, you forget about this too."

"Then I have a request. The Simulated Universe—a project I completed together with Screwllum, Ruan Mei, and Stephan—we've never found suitable testers. Now I'm very curious. What would happen if Stelle, as a Stellaron vessel, and Theresa, from the Honkai world, participated in the Simulated Universe simulation? Would it attract an Aeon?"

Herta voiced her idea. This proposal was acceptable to the Stellaron Hunters. For Welt and Theresa, as long as Herta didn't go and recklessly research the Honkai, they had no objections.

Today's beautiful picture. Did everyone pull for Sparkle? The author already finished her build long ago.
