Chapter 297
He wanted Elysia to see it, and he also wanted to try it out.
[...]
Not only because the current Kiana can communicate and has her own will, but also because she was once a shooting star in Sky City, saving many people.
Furthermore, during her brief awakening afterward, she never truly harmed anyone. According to Durandal, she could even have conversations.
Maybe!
This time it's really different, isn't it?!
There is still time.
The Stigmata Project is a fallback plan.
Even if the Finality truly cannot be taught or undone, the companions in the Land of the Past will likely be the first to discover it.
No one understands the Herrscher better Elysia.
Kevin even felt that her judgment might be more authoritative and accurate than his own.
[Then!]
Kiana was taken to the Land of the Past.
There, I learned, honed my skills, and received guidance.
[...]
Miss Yuzu continued speaking.
Meanwhile, during this period...
[Raiden Mei deeply understood her own vulnerability, finally reconciled with the Herrscher consciousness within her, became a true Herrscher of Lightning, and also joined World Serpent.]
[...]
She said.
Raiden Mei wants to go to the Land of the Past to find Kiana.
Kevin agreed.
[But after spending a short time in the Land of the Past, Raiden Mei went to the outside world to carry out a mission.]
Because she is different from Kiana, who cannot leave.
She has free access to come and go.
She knew that Kiana would be very upset after learning of the Herrscher of Ice's arrival.
Therefore, she will go to subdue her in her place.
[...]
PS1: Second update delivered, one more to come, keep it up!
284. Anna and Chen Tianwen? What about Chen Tianwu?
"So this is the Fifth Great Honkai?"
"I remember the Herrscher of Ice, she should be the Fifth Herrscher, right?"
"..."
Inside a research institute.
Someone unconsciously rubbed their chin.
But the next moment.
Some people around him disagreed with him.
"Have you forgotten? Miss Yuzu and Miss Void Archive said before that the current civilization is different."
"It cannot be completely distinguished by the term 'Great Honkai'."
"..."
"Yes, yes!"
"Otherwise, what would Queen Majesty say? She's been resurrected; does that mean we've returned to the Second Great Honkai?"
"By the way, isn't Mei the same? Awakening again, does that mean it's her third time?"
"..."
This issue is discussed online.
Someone said with a laugh.
"If we really interpret it that way, then next time, it should be the Herrscher of Wind makes a comeback."
"..."
"However, the Herrscher of Wind is already three feet old and overgrown with weeds."
"What kind of hellish joke?"
At this moment.
The Void Archive spoke from within the celestial canopy.
In terms of the outcome, the Fifth Herrscher, the Herrscher of Ice, was ultimately able to regain her true self thanks to the influence of her lover, Chen Tianwen, and the help of the Herrscher of Lightning in suppressing her Herrscher Persona.
This Great Honkai has, of course, come to a successful conclusion.
[...]
But in fact!
[However, later historians have held different views.]
[Anna, the Herrscher of Ice, has a somewhat weak personality. Although she can contend with the Herrscher Persona, she is probably unable to regain her true self.]
[The best-case scenario, even after countless simulations, is that the main personality, in its struggle against the Herrscher Persona, is defeated along with Raiden Mei and cannot survive.]
This situation is certainly not normal.
[...]
She looked at Miss Yuzu and said.
We all know that after the Young Lady Finality state, it will be the only true Finality.
In other words, from that moment on, all the worlds associated with the Cocoon of the End, representing the Honkai of civilizations, will be affected by her.
She will be the only true God of Honkai.
Therefore, after all the other Cocoon of the End were bound, their strength was naturally weakened to a great extent. Coupled with her will, which radiated across countless worlds, the intensity of the Honkai in those worlds from that moment on was softened to a greater extent.
[...]
Miss Yuzu seemed to understand something.
[I remember in the Honkai Impact 3rd world records, the time when the Young Lady was truly involved was when Kiana and Raiden Mei were at the very end.]
[But actually! You mean... at times like this, the Young Lady has already started helping.]
[Is that so?]
[...]
Void Archive nodded.
The result is obvious!
The only possibility is a decrease in the intensity of the Honkai.
Furthermore, there was no longer any interference from the so-called will of God.
The Herrscher of Ice, who was originally unable to truly maintain her own self, was able to luckily regain her will.
But in reality...
They know that too.
The so-called will of God is actually a group of Imaginary Renormalization built upon the foundation of Prometheus, who hacked into the Previous Civilization.
Regardless of her original intentions.
But at least!
If the intensity of the Honkai drops sharply.
The power of the Honkai Interference Herrscher will naturally weaken.
In the current civilization, Herrscher already experience less mental distortion than in Previous Civilization. Now, with the assessment difficulty further reduced, it's naturally even easier.
This is all perfectly normal!
However, although the Herrscher of Ice has regained her senses, her mental state remains unstable.
So she stayed in Schicksal, under supervision, with Chen Tianwen responsible for taking care of her and comforting her.
[...]
Miss Yuzu continued.
Due to various coincidences in the current civilization, the Herrscher of Death did not truly appear during the fight against the Honkai. Even though Seele was indeed the best candidate for the Herrscher of Death, she survived the Honkai unscathed.
[Next! It's time for the Eighth Herrscher, the Herrscher of Knowledge.]
[...]
"So I just let Shui Lingling skip over me like that?" Seele looked at Ling.
Ling held her hand, "What does it matter!"
"I don't want Seele over there to be an enemy!" she said with a sweet smile.
Think tanks and analysts in some countries took a look and then muttered their complaints.
"So, the Seventh Herrscher, the Herrscher of Fire, was also skipped?"
"It seems so."
"..."
"That's great!"
"The current Herrscher have either been turned against us or gone on strike."
"In our Previous Civilization era next door, we were practically scum, everyone had to suffer the same fate."
"..."
The Eighth Herrscher, the Herrscher of Knowledge, was born within Hua's body.
As we all know, when Hua had her head blown off by Otto, she used the maximum power of the Divine Key Feather Dust to bind all her consciousness to Kiana.
[Thanks to this, Kiana was able to recover more quickly, suppress the Queen's personality, and maintain her individuality.]
[...]
Miss Yuzu smiled slightly.
[The Herrscher of Knowledge is the Herrscher of consciousness. When she was born, she subconsciously viewed Hua's memories, and as a result, she was influenced by Hua's long experience of over 55,000 years, mistakenly believing that she herself was Hua.]
Although she later realized that she wasn't like that and returned her body to Hua, she ran away from home.
However, she is indeed, in a sense, Herrscher on the human side.
[...]
She suddenly smiled, pursing her lips.
Simply put, Xiaoshi is really childish.
When she was with Hua, she was like a child meeting her mother. If only Hua had known how to comfort a child, perhaps none of this would have happened.
[...]
Miss Yuzu and Void Archive briefly described the situation at the time.
This made many people smile.
