With the star core gone, Belobog's signal is no longer affected, and they are now able to make contact with other locations.

Sirin is still busy, but she warmly invited her to visit the Ark and experience the fun of Ark with other worlds.

However, Kiana politely declined both offers.

After all, she was in Belobog, and as long as the problem of the Void Trotter wasn't resolved, she wouldn't be able to leave.

They've turned Belobog into this.

They have to take responsibility.

"Yes and no."

Yomi remained suspenseful.

What does "yes or no" mean?

Kiana frowned, puzzled, and after thinking for a while, she still couldn't connect the dots.

If you can't figure it out, don't bother thinking about it.

She abandoned all thought and turned to Yomi for the answer, pulling her along and pleading, "Stop keeping me in suspense, just tell me, Mei!"

"When Stigma holder dies, they leave behind Honkai Crystal, which contain a tiny Stigmata world. If that person didn't die, would the Stigma exist within the Stigmata space?"

Stigmata space?

"Normally, it should be there, right?"

Kiana answered Yomi's question uncertainly, but her expression suddenly changed as she spoke.

"You didn't see anything, did you?"

Kiana sat up straight, frowning as she observed Yomi's reaction. Yomi's Stigma were purchased from the system.

She didn't know if the Stigma she bought directly contained anything extra. If the Stigma contained information from Honkai Impact 2, that would be truly...

What should I see?

Kiana wasn't surprised, so could Stigma possibly contain Stigmata space?

Yomi narrowed his eyes.

Yes, Yae Sakura's Stigma. Her will became the Stigmata Will, but her Stigma can be used by others.

"Didn't Mei see it?"

Kiana breathed a slight sigh of relief and said, "It's nothing important. If we see unfamiliar things, those things are irrelevant to us; they belong to another universe."

Why would we see things from another universe?

Yomi frowned deeply.

She knew what Kiana was talking about.

But she couldn't understand what Kiana had just said. Why could her Stigma see other people's past?

"I got all Honkai Stigma from the Honkai... I don't know how the Stigma got them."

Kiana scratched her head, looking conflicted.

It was created out of thin air, so it's most likely blank.

But...

If it contains something like a tracer or a moth Fire Moth, then things could get really messed up.

"So the Stigma were provided to you by the Honkai... and those weapons too."

Yomi seemed to be deep in thought, then went straight to the point. "The Stigma does indeed have Stigmata space, but I didn't risk going to check it out."

"Oh, there really is... no wonder you mentioned Sirin..."

Sirin's Stigma were also specially obtained by her; they are exclusive Stigma, and there must be a Stigmata space inside them.

Wait, exclusive Stigma?

Kiana's expression suddenly changed when she recalled the description of the Honkai. With the title of 'exclusive', it was hard for her not to think about other things.

For a perfect fit, this Stigma cannot be given to just anyone. Exclusive Stigma may have more than just the functions that are attached to it.

Could there really be moths that Fire Moth?

Kiana's expression changed.

Or perhaps a trial for Raiden Mei?

Kiana?

"... Maybe we shouldn't investigate further?"

Kiana hesitated before saying, "It's most likely not your Remembrance inside."

"If it's not my Remembrance, shouldn't I go and take a look?"

Yomi raised an eyebrow at her. "If I know nothing about it, then when it can affect me..."

"We can't just leave it unattended."

Kiana scratched her head in confusion, then thought for a moment and said, "It might be hiding something. Should we remove this Stigma?"

Yomi is no longer the person she once was; the enhancement from the Stigma is merely icing on the cake for her now.

Losing it wouldn't have a big impact.

"I'm afraid that won't work."

Yomi shook his head and said, "It can help me resist some of the invasion of nothingness and help me retain more Remembrance and senses."

Chapter 130 Helping Out.

This means we can't touch the Stigma.

Kiana thought for a moment and said, "How about we wait until ARuan is free and ask ARuan to take a look?"

"Ruan Mei?"

Yomi frowned, wanting to refuse outright, but meeting Kiana's concerned gaze, she remained silent and didn't say it.

Did Mei actively seek out the anomaly, or did it just appear suddenly?

Seeing Yomi frown, Kiana knew that she did not agree, and realized that she had spoken too quickly. She quickly changed the subject again.

The order of priority is important.

If Yomi actively sought it out, then this 'hidden' nature is a passive, waiting-for-opportunity type.

It's okay to leave it alone.

It won't have any impact even if we wait for ten or twenty years.

If it's the latter.

That means the change is imminent, and they don't have much time to think about it.

"It's the former. After seeing the Stigmata world, I thought about the Stigma on my own body and had some related thoughts."

"The former? That's alright, that's alright."

Kiana felt relieved; the former meant there was no danger and there was plenty of time.

You can choose to challenge the hidden levels or not.

"If it's the former, then even if you ignore it, it won't affect you."

Kiana said, "To be on the safe side, let's pretend it doesn't exist until we figure out what's inside."

"I see... I'll do as you say."

Yomi pondered for a moment, then suppressed his thoughts and did not risk his life out of mere curiosity.

"Oh well, never mind the Stigma. I'm going to find Jana now and talk to her about helping out."

Kiana rolled over, changed into a new outfit, and hurriedly got out of bed and ran out, leaving only the words, "Wait for my good news!"

Yomi reached out as if to say something but hesitated, but Kiana moved too quickly, so she could only helplessly withdraw her hand and sigh.

Kiana walked quickly to the door of the room arranged for Jana and knocked twice. "Jana, are you up?"

She had barely finished speaking when the door opened from the inside, revealing Jana's rather surprised face. "Kiana!"

His eyes were filled with joy.

Seeing her like this, Kiana felt rather uncomfortable and awkwardly asked, "Can we talk?"

"Sure."

Jana, of course, couldn't refuse, especially since Yomi wasn't following behind her, which made her even happier. "We can talk about anything, for as long as we want."

"Then let's go inside and talk."

Kiana squeezed into Jana's room and closed the door behind her, preventing any sounds from reaching the outside.

The bed was still exactly as it had been yesterday, without a single wrinkle. It seemed that Jana hadn't rested in bed at all.

Didn't you get any rest yesterday?

Having seen it, she casually asked a question.

Jana shook her head. "I don't have much need for that. I can also detect danger in time."

"Well, there shouldn't be any enemies on this planet that could threaten us."

Kiana said, "There's no need to be so careful."

"All right."

Jana seemed somewhat disappointed.

Seeing that Jana Kiana a little disappointed, Kiana guiltily looked away, swallowing back the words of comfort she was about to say. It was better not to praise her for something so unnecessary.

Let's get down to business. If we stay here too long, it'll be hard to explain to Mei.

Regarding the Honkai...

Kiana paused slightly, her voice tinged with doubt. "Or rather, with your birth, with your appearance, did you glimpse another world?"

Jana doesn't have her own exclusive Stigma, but she was born from the Great Honkai and has a direct relationship with it. Moreover, by a twist of fate, not only does she look the same as the Honkai Impact 2, but she also shares the same identity Planet-class Honkai Beast.

There's a reason why Jana looks like this, and she's the one who gave her the name, so Kiana didn't have any other thoughts about Jana before, she just felt it was a coincidence.

However, Yomi mentioned that there was Stigmata space for the exclusive Stigma, which inevitably made her have some extra thoughts.

"Another world?"

Jana tilted her head slightly, seemingly not quite understanding what she was saying.

"A world with you, with me, and with Mei."

Jana asked in surprise, "Does such a world even exist?"

She seemed genuinely unfamiliar with the world Kiana had mentioned, and was somewhat surprised to hear this news for the first time.

"No?"

"I don't have these Remembrance, nor have I ever seen any of the things Kiana is talking about."

Jana asked, "Are you searching for this world?"

Kiana shook her head, but breathed a sigh of relief; it was a good thing that she wasn't directly involved with Honkai Impact 2.

As for the Yomi... the restrictions of the exclusive Stigma, and the hidden Stigmata space, should be a kind of hidden trial.

Game...

She knew what was going on.

"There's one more thing!"

Kiana's previous seriousness vanished, replaced by a smile. "I'd like to ask you for a favor."

Help?

Jana paused for a moment, pondering Kiana's words, then her face lit up with joy as she asked happily, "What do you need me to do?"
