Don't Come Over Here!

Xu Yanwu didn't even have a chance to react before the Herrscher of the End impaled his chest with a spear dropped from the sky, pinning him to the ground.

"Ow ow ow ow ow ow ow ow!"

Stabbed by the spear, Xu Yanwu's eyes watered from the pain.

I was just kidding about pinning him to the pillar of shame, and now look, I'm pinned to the ground by a girl's big, long spear.

It's not like I accidentally saw your blue and white stripes. Do you really have to hit me this hard?

"Principal, that man..."

Mei looked at Xu Yanwu screaming on the ground over there, feeling a pang of sympathy, and softly asked Theresa, who was standing in front of her.

"No, we don't know if that man is friend or foe yet. If we act rashly against the Herrscher of the End, we might..." Theresa hesitated as well.

The Herrscher of the End tilted her head in the sky, seemingly unable to comprehend why Xu Yanwu could still be screaming so energetically after being pierced by a spear condensed with such potent Honkai Energy.

Then, to the stunned gazes of Mei, Theresa, and the others, something incredible happened.

As they perceived it, the Honkai Energy fluctuations within the spear, which had reached a terrifying level, were flowing into Xu Yanwu's chest at an extremely rapid pace before vanishing without a trace.

It was as if... Xu Yanwu had simply drunk it down like water.

"Cough, cough, I'm not dead?"

Xu Yanwu got up again, touching his chest, only to feel a large, wriggling, healing hole.

"What the hell..."

Xu Yanwu was a little scared. While being immortal was great, his body had suddenly become like this. Had someone modified him?

"Who are you?"

The ethereal, cold voice made Xu Yanwu momentarily unable to pinpoint its origin.

"Why are you here?"

"???" Xu Yanwu looked up and saw the Herrscher of the End staring intently at him.

And judging by her demeanor, she was already preparing to attack him again.

"Don't do this, Herrscher of Kiana, no, Kiana, no, Herrscher of the End, let's talk things out, no need to fight."

Xu Yanwu's face was pale. Under the Herrscher of the End's gaze, he kept retreating, even tripping over the debris of a house and falling to the ground for the third time.

The pain of being pierced by the spear still lingered within him. He was just an ordinary otaku; he didn't want to experience that kind of agony again.

Xu Yanwu tried hard to get up from the ground, but his legs instinctively went weak after that piercing pain. He could only weakly drag himself away from the Herrscher of the End with his hands.

The Herrscher of the End was puzzled.

She was actually feeling a sense of danger from this... ant?

Was it an illusion?

But what about the light spear being absorbed by him just now?

No, she had to deal with him quickly. She couldn't use Honkai Energy attacks; she'd just kill him directly.

Though confused, the Herrscher of the End decided to eliminate Xu Yanwu, this potential threat, before the end of the world. After all, it wouldn't be good if something unexpected happened.

Seeing the Herrscher of the End fly towards Xu Yanwu, Mei grew anxious. "Principal, Kiana right now..."

"But that man..." Theresa hesitated. Being able to completely devour Honkai Energy without even a trace of fluctuation was something even a Herrscher couldn't do.

Yet, Xu Yanwu's behavior didn't seem like someone who would possess such power.

"You..."

Xu Yanwu watched the Herrscher of the End slowly approach, his fear growing. His pupils contracted to a pinpoint, and he roared.

"Don't come over!!!"

"Boom!"

The Herrscher of the End felt as if she had been blasted away by a giant hammer.

An immense force came from Xu Yanwu's direction, yet it landed precisely on every point of her body, directly pushing her away.

"The Herrscher of the End was sent flying? How is that possible!"

Himeko rubbed her eyes in disbelief, confirming she wasn't mistaken, and murmured, "My god, what is going on?"

"Ha, ha?"

Xu Yanwu panted, feeling completely drained of strength.

"I just..."

Xu Yanwu's pupils were still dazed. He felt like... he had just blasted Herrscher of Kiana away with a single sentence?

How was that possible? That was the fourteenth Herrscher—the Herrscher of the End! How could she be blasted away by a weakling like him? This had to be a joke.

"Ha, haha..."

Xu Yanwu forced a twitching smile, as if amused by himself.

"Hahaha... Heh heh... I'm actually still alive."

Surviving a great disaster would certainly lift one's spirits, even if the disaster itself hadn't passed and the end was still death.

"Cough, cough, cough..."

Xu Yanwu, laughing too hard, was choked by his own saliva and coughed violently.

The hole in Xu Yanwu's chest also healed as he coughed. There wasn't even a trace of a wound, let alone bloodstains, just a bit of dust.

"My body is truly terrifying now. I wonder if I can withstand the Herrscher of the End's world-destroying power next?"

Xu Yanwu muttered to himself.

"Hehehehe... In normal circumstances, a body like mine would be a real bug... Unfortunately, I've encountered an even bigger bug, the Herrscher of the End... Is this even fair?"

Seeing the Herrscher of the End return, Xu Yanwu felt a bit like giving up, yet also a touch of unwillingness.

If he had time, perhaps with this unkillable body, he could have fought the Herrscher of the End?

But there wasn't enough time...

What Xu Yanwu didn't expect was that after flying over, the Herrscher of the End simply waved her hand, pulling several steel bars from the building's ruins and binding Xu Yanwu tightly.

"God who does not belong to this world, you are too dangerous for this world, now..."

Xu Yanwu didn't clearly hear what the Herrscher of the End said last. He only knew that after he had sent the Herrscher of the End flying, he had become very tired... so tired he wanted to fall asleep...

In his sleep, he felt as if his head had been severed and sealed in a crystal box, while his body was scattered across the world.

When Xu Yanwu forced his eyes open, he saw... the crying Herrscher of the End, and Mei in her arms, her life or death unknown.

"Kiana?"

Xu Yanwu spoke. The Herrscher of the End occupying Kiana's body wouldn't cry for Mei's death, but Kiana would.

However, only a faint whistling sound came from Xu Yanwu.

Kiana, holding Mei in her arms, glanced at Xu Yanwu.

Xu Yanwu saw Kiana's despair, sorrow, will to die, and... in the reflection of her eyes, only himself, with just a head remaining.

Then, came a long darkness
