{In the third chapter, the protagonist becomes Theresa. The author definitely won't drag things out.}

{Also, this book is set in the Star Rail World. I don't know whether the protagonist will be sent to the Honkai world later to have some fun—it depends on everyone's reaction.}

Urged on by Gao Fushuai, the helpless Hua Ling could only accept his help, along with that of several specially hired makeup artists. Hua Ling was changed into a beautiful Celestial Hymn cosplay outfit, with white stockings pulled over her slender, long legs. After the professional makeup artists gave her a beautiful look, they kept it light and elegant rather than applying anything too heavy, thanks to her naturally lovely features.

Finally, she put on a white wig, wore a crown, and inserted blue contacts. A real-life Theresa made her glorious debut!

"Oho!" ×3

Gao Fushuai and the other two female makeup artists were instantly dazzled. Just as excited as Gao Fushuai, they covered their noses. If they hadn't known Hua Ling was a man, they would have pounced on her and started squishing her long ago!

"Bro, you smell so good~"

Gao Fushuai stared at the breathtakingly beautiful Hua Ling, breathing rapidly as he shouted in excitement. Hua Ling also blushed as she looked at her beautiful, adorable reflection in the mirror. Aside from the slightly incongruous height of five-foot-three, she looked exactly like Theresa herself from the Honkai games! Theresa's Celestial Hymn outfit—"Smell my ass, you big idiot~"

"Mm~ I'm so cute!"

Hua Ling smugly spun the hem of her skirt and laughed excitedly. Her milky, gender-neutral voice sounded subtly out of place at the moment.

"The voice doesn't sound quite right. Hua Ling, can you do voice impressions?"

Gao Fushuai was not entirely satisfied. A gender-neutral voice coming from Theresa was far too jarring.

"Um... forget it. So what if I lose a little dignity? I've already cross-dressed anyway. Ahem."

"Hey, hey, Captain, can you bend down? Judas wants to pat the Captain's head too~"

Blushing, Hua Ling used a voice impression to speak in Theresa's voice. Gao Fushuai and the two makeup artists were all stunned!!! ∑(?Д?ノ)ノ

"It's nothing. My voice is quite similar to Teacher Hua Ling's, so imitating Theresa's voice is actually pretty easy for me. You idiot, you're staring dumbfoundedly again~"

Hua Ling rolled her eyes at the frozen Gao Fushuai and called out to him.

"Unbelievable. This is practically the holy body of Theresa! My bro, you're amazing!"

Gao Fushuai excitedly shouted as he hugged Hua Ling and lifted her into the air. Hua Ling flusteredly and angrily knocked on Gao Fushuai's head with her delicate, fair little fists. Only then did Gao Fushuai realize what he was doing. His face reddened as he put Hua Ling down and laughed awkwardly.

"What the hell are you laughing at? Oh, right, a Theresa cosplay isn't complete without Judas. Do we have a Judas prop?"

Hua Ling looked around and asked curiously.

"Are you kidding? How could the Judas Launcher not have Judas!"

Gao Fushuai shouted mischievously. Hua Ling felt a little displeased upon hearing that. She had already begun immersing herself in Theresa's role; after all, embodying the character's personality was a sign of respect for the character being cosplayed!

Gao Fushuai walked deeper into the dressing room and effortlessly lifted the Plastic Judas prop with one hand. After all, he was a handsome, burly man standing five-foot-eleven; the forty-pound Plastic Judas felt weightless in his hands. The unfolded Oath of Judah—"Here, my adorable Judas Launcher~"

Suppressing his laughter, Gao Fushuai handed the Plastic Judas to Hua Ling. By then, Hua Ling was beginning to see herself as Theresa. There happened to be a metal clasp embedded in the back of her costume for securing Judas, allowing the forty-pound Plastic Judas to hang from it.

"Ugh, it's still kind of heavy. I'm so jealous of Theresa's monstrous strength~"

With the makeup artists' help, Hua Ling miserably hung Judas on her back. The reason the Plastic Judas was so heavy was because the spears inside were made of metal, though they had not been sharpened. Thirteen metal spears were packed inside the Plastic Judas—of course it was heavy.

Combined with Hua Ling's petite frame and slender limbs, it was only natural that she found the Plastic Judas rather heavy.

"All right, thank you. Oh, where did that Gao Fushuai guy go?"

With Judas on her back, Hua Ling looked at the makeup artists and asked curiously.

"The young master is also changing into his cosplay outfit. Please wait a moment."

The makeup artists did not know how to address Hua Ling at that point. Hua Ling naturally understood and did not mind. She walked over to the mirror and narcissistically admired herself.

"Men should be full of Blood Qi!"

Hua Ling excitedly shouted while twirling her skirt. Image acquired~

"Pfft, what kind of Blood Qi is that, my adorable granddaughter?"

An elegant male voice rang out. Hua Ling's expression froze. She turned around and saw Gao Fushuai {Otto} standing behind her with a gentle smile, looking at her indulgently.

"Why, you little—Gao Fushuai! I treat you like a brother, but you want to be my grandpa!"

Fueled by rage, Hua Ling actually lifted the Plastic Judas with one hand and swung it at Otto {Gao Fushuai}.

"Haha, isn't this more fun, my adorable Theresa!"

"You won't get away!" Like this~ Gao Fushuai, cosplaying Otto, let out a strange cry as the humiliated and enraged Hua Ling chased him out with Judas. The two makeup artists exchanged wry smiles. These two were always full of laughs when they were together.

At that moment, a famous scene appeared at the convention: Theresa chasing Otto down with Judas. Everyone watched with delight and amazement as the beautiful, adorable Theresa chased Otto {Gao Fushuai}, her two short little legs bouncing along at incredible speed.

"I was wrong, my adorable granddaughter!"

Otto {Gao Fushuai} inadvertently ran onto an empty stage with the furious Theresa {Hua Ling} chasing after him and shouted those words. Some people assumed it was part of a performance and gathered below the stage. Hua Ling stood there panting, exhausted enough to collapse. Damn it, Gao Fushuai could really run!

"Theresa is the Cutest in the World!"

"Bishop Otto, stay strong!"

Once those cries rang out, Hua Ling and Gao Fushuai discovered in astonishment that a large crowd had somehow gathered beneath the stage, watching them excitedly.

"Bro, what do we do? Make the act real?"

Otto {Gao Fushuai} looked at the panting Theresa {Hua Ling} and asked.

"Huff, huff, I'm exhausted, Gao Fushuai! You bastard can really run!"

Theresa {Hua Ling} glared at Otto {Gao Fushuai} and shouted angrily.

"If I didn't run, should I have waited for your Judas to smash me? Forty pounds may be light, but it still won't feel good when it comes down on me. The crowd's all fired up now—how about we perform a song?"

Gao Fushuai looked at Hua Ling and made the suggestion. Hua Ling nodded hesitantly. She could do voice impressions anyway, so she would not be exposed.

Thus, Otto {Gao Fushuai} personally sang his own Otto theme song, "Regression." His sorrowful, weathered low notes rose into soaring high notes during the climax, making everyone cheer excitedly. Gao Fushuai's singing skills were pretty good; at the very least, he portrayed Otto convincingly.

After Gao Fushuai finished singing, it was Hua Ling's turn. The Theresa she portrayed sang "The Day the Stars Vanish." Her sweet, milky voice sounded as though Theresa herself were singing, igniting even more enthusiasm than Otto had received earlier. After all, it was adorable Theresa.
