Young Man, Do You Desire Power? {Part 1}

{The long-awaited fun is here~}

{Looks like the protagonist's transformation won't happen until the next chapter.}

Hua Ling and Gao Fushuai broke out in a cold sweat as they watched the excited crowd. With no other choice, they sang other Honkai songs. Gao Fushuai managed fine, but when Hua Ling sang Hua Ling-sensei's "Dede De," it was a different story—the song was perfectly suited for Theresa's performance.

Hua Ling's disguised loli voice, carrying a milky tone, gave everyone the feeling of Theresa herself being present, making the otaku fans scream with excitement.

"Theresa, I'm your biggest fan!" {Flying tackle}

"Hehehe, cute Theresa, I'm your favorite Cecilia!"

A girl cosplaying Cecilia let out a silly laugh.

"Theresa, I'm your Bitter Melon Spirit!"

"Family, who gets it?!"

A uniquely ugly Bitter Melon Spirit shouted excitedly, his bared teeth making people step back in dismay, and even Hua Ling felt the urge to throw Judas at him—that Bitter Melon Spirit was just too grotesque.

Finally, Hua Ling and Gao Fushuai managed to get off the stage, unexpectedly holding the singing competition trophy. Now they stood awkwardly as people crowded around to take photos, especially many fragrant young ladies who hugged Hua Ling and rubbed him vigorously.

If you asked whether Hua Ling would be found out as a man, the answer was no. Since Theresa was also flat-chested, Hua Ling's smooth chest drew no attention—Theresa's flatness was deeply ingrained in everyone's minds.

So Gao Fushuai, playing Otto, and Hua Ling, playing Theresa, were surrounded by people taking photos for a long time. Both felt their eyes constantly flashing with light spots; they really couldn't understand how celebrities endured the bombardment of camera flashes.

They finally waited until sunset outside and the convention began to end. By then, the exhausted pair no longer cared about going home in their cosplay outfits, since the streets were full of people in all kinds of bizarre costumes.

Especially one Power Man Vergil with silver-white hair, who sat proudly with his back to the crowd on a plastic chair at a food stall, a prop Yamato placed by the armrest, radiating a powerful aura of might. Feel the power~ Then, amid everyone's shocked gazes, a Hatsune Dante calmly walked over to Power Man Vergil. Hatsune Dante: "Hey Vergil, your days of opening portals whenever you want are over. Give me the Yamato!"

Hatsune Dante shouted at Vergil's back.

"If you want it, then come and take it."

Vergil stood up and turned to face Hatsune Dante, his eye twitching at Dante's bizarre outfit.

"You know the rules."

Vergil looked at the absurd Dante, holding back a smile.

"Knew you'd say that."

With Hatsune Dante's words, inexplicable drumbeats rang out—someone else was beating out the Devil May Cry rhythm. The knocking sounds began.

"How many times have we fought?"

Vergil looked up at Dante and asked.

"Hard to say. It's the only thing I remember from childhood."

Dante stepped forward, closing in on Vergil, and Vergil did the same.

"It's time to end this, Vergil!"

"Once and for all!"

Hatsune Dante raised a green onion and laughed.

Vergil couldn't help but laugh too, giving Hatsune Dante a thumbs up. A cheerful Vergil: "Hahaha, bro, I can't hold it in anymore. You're way too funny. This Dante of yours is all wrong!"

Vergil finally finished the Big Sick Zone lines and burst into laughter, and everyone else started laughing too.

"Haha, Hatsune Dante is still Dante, no problem with that!"

"Come on, bro, I'll treat you to milk tea!"

"Yeah, let's go!"

Vergil and Dante walked off arm in arm, slowly disappearing. The crowd, having had their fun, began to disperse. As for the food stall chairs, they were borrowed from nearby.

"Haha, these people are really fun, aren't they?"

Hua Ling looked up happily and said to Gao Fushuai, forgetting he was still using his fake voice.

"Mm-hmm."

Gao Fushuai smiled and nodded, instinctively wanting to take Hua Ling's hand, but then sighed regretfully at something and lowered his raised hand.

[Path of the Heavenly King]

Suddenly, Hua Ling and Gao Fushuai were stunned to hear Dull Goose's voice. The scene around them froze, the falling light rain suspended in midair. The two stared in shock as a Swan Itasha sped toward them from a distance, the commotion coming from that itasha.

[Here, I create!]

[Damn heterosexuals, go reincarnate!]

With Dull Goose's angry shout, Gao Fushuai and Hua Ling were sent flying by the itasha. They soared into the air, only to be swallowed by a suddenly appearing void, which then vanished.

[Heh~ Another pair of damn heterosexuals sent off. May you both become girls and start new lives. This mission's done. I'm out~]

The Dull Goose Itasha first transformed into a robot, typing on a keyboard, then nodded in satisfaction, transformed back, and roared away.

With its departure, the frozen time began to flow again, ensuring ordinary people wouldn't notice.

In the quiet universe of the Star Rail World, a void suddenly opened, spewing out Hua Ling and Gao Fushuai, then spat out an air bubble that enveloped the unconscious pair, allowing them to survive briefly in the vacuum of space.

{Hum~}

The rift let out a strange sound before collapsing and vanishing.

After a moment, the two slowly came to inside the air bubble.

"Gao Fushuai, I think we got hit by a Dull Goose Itasha?"

Hua Ling rubbed her head, still confused.

"Yeah, now that you mention it, I remember—we did get sent flying by a Dull Goose Itasha. Strange thing is, I don't feel any pain?"

Gao Fushuai started looking around. When he saw the vacuum of outer space through the transparent air bubble, his mind went blank.

"I think we're about to keep Great Kaz company in his eternal rest. Good news is, we really did transmigrate. Bad news is, we're about to become space junk..."

Gao Fushuai's expression crumbled as he shouted at Hua Ling. If she weren't there, he'd probably have already lost his mind!

After all, in the empty, silent vacuum of space, that despair was truly terrifying!

"If this really counts as transmigration, what about your parents? You're not like me—alone in the world."

Hua Ling looked at Gao Fushuai, trying to derail his spiraling thoughts. She was doing her best to stay calm, because in a desperate situation, keeping your emotions steady was crucial.

"Uh, no need to worry about that. Besides me, the younger brother Gao Fushuai, there's my older brother Gao Youcai and older sister Gao Xiaomei. Most importantly, I'm not their biological child either—I was adopted just like you. I've been under strict discipline my whole life. It wasn't until I met you that I could finally breathe. That family was suffocating. This isn't so bad, assuming we find a way to survive."

Gao Fushuai looked at Hua Ling, his emotions calming down as he spoke.

Daily meme. As expected of Dr. Ratio.
