ps: The newly cultivated panel is the third clue.

As promised, Rosia's story arc will conclude around the time of the launch, and then we'll move on to a new character's story.

Of course, some people might worry about it being a cliché amnesia plot, but for me, writing something too cliché isn't interesting. So, I'll only write what I find particularly engaging.

Because the word count before the launch was still too tight, many of Rosia's follow-up plot points will appear in the upcoming chapters.

Based on the introduction in the previous chapter, you should be able to guess what the next plot will be, right?

While many of the foreshadowing points I laid out have been resolved, there are still a few small, poignant moments to come.

I don't remember how many chapters ago this was, but I've added at least seven or eight chapters in the past couple of days. A period of explosive updates after the launch should be enough.

We're launching tomorrow, so those who like this book can continue to support it, meow!

Here's a cute little cat.

Chapter Fifty-One: Other Shore: River Styx · Yomi

Autumn 2015

Changkong City

One day, as if a meteorite had fallen, a person descended amidst crisis.

"Miss, you... why are you sleeping here?"

Opening her eyes, a girl with light pink hair and red eyes, wearing a hood, crouched before her, asking with some confusion.

"Who... are you... Who am I..."

The figure on the ground muttered to herself.

"My name is Sora. I'm a survivor from this area. This is my partner, Mark Two..."

The light pink-haired girl pointed to the small robot in front of her.

"C-can I borrow a mirror?"

The figure sat up, clutching her confused head, and spoke with a dazed expression.

"Okay... okay."

Sora looked at her, inexplicably feeling a sense of security. The closer she got, the more pronounced this feeling became.

It was warm, and it was reassuring.

"This... is me?"

The figure looked at the girl in the mirror, who had long, purplish-black hair with streaks of pink highlights, and delicate features with purple-pink eyes. She murmured in confusion.

"Mmm..."

Fragments of memories occasionally flashed through her mind, the flickering images causing the girl to feel lost.

"Miss, are these two swords... yours? Mark Two and I found them nearby..."

Sora walked over, holding two long swords.

One sword had a purplish-black hilt with intricate patterns, while the other had a black and red hilt.

Even from the exquisite hilts, their imposing aura was evident, but thankfully, they had scabbards to conceal their sharpness.

"They... are mine."

The girl with the purplish-black hair pushed aside the strands of hair obscuring her vision and took the swords from Sora.

Although she didn't recognize the swords, her intuition told her that they were very important to her.

The sword with the black and red hilt also had a black and red scabbard. Even with the scabbard, it didn't completely conceal the blade; just a touch revealed the terrifying intent contained within.

The sword with the purplish-black hilt had a pure white and blue scabbard. The moment she touched it, the girl felt a sense of peace.

At the same time, the girl noticed a flower woven from black, red, and blue-white threads shimmering faintly beside her.

The moment she picked it up, its name surfaced in her mind, and she couldn't help but utter it.

"Other Shore: River Styx: Yomi..."

"Mhm... Miss, have you remembered?"

Sora had been searching for supplies everywhere. A long time had passed since she found the girl, and the sky was gradually darkening.

If you don't go back, there will be many Honkai Beasts tonight.

"Other Shore... Yomi..."

The girl with dark purple hair murmured, finally placing the flower into the pocket of her collar, making it look like an exquisite decoration.

"Then... Sister Yomi?"

Sora didn't know what else to call her, so she could only guess.

"Thank you. I've also... forgotten my name. It's fine to call me that. Just call me Yomi for now."

The girl with dark purple hair secured one sword behind her back, while holding another in her left hand.

"I'm looking for someone... she might be able to help me..."

The girl with dark purple hair, or rather, Yomi now, spoke.

Although she didn't know what the current situation was or what problems her memory had, Yomi always had a voice in her heart calling out a name.

But she couldn't recall it.

If she could remember it, perhaps it would resolve many of her doubts.

"Sister Yomi, it's getting dark. Do you want to come back with me?"

Sora said happily, looking at the big sister who stood several heads taller than her.

Sora felt a strong sense of security from Sister Yomi, and inexplicably found it easy to trust her.

"Mhm..."

After standing up, Yomi realized she was about 1.7 meters tall, with long hair and a figure...

Well, it was good.

Yomi looked down; she could barely see her toes.

Following behind Sora, Yomi kept frowning, trying to recall.

Many of the scenes flashing before her eyes were in an orphanage. Unlike the other children playing in the orphanage, she always watched the entire situation from an outsider's perspective.

Her gaze was cold and indifferent.

"Am I... the orphanage's administrator? The director?"

Influenced by this perspective, Yomi didn't think she was one of those children.

"The person I need to find... is also a child..."

Lost in thought, Yomi didn't feel anything unusual. On the contrary, when she thought of this, her intuition told her it was correct.

"Sister, quickly hide! There are Honkai Beasts ahead..."

Sora pulled Yomi to hide within the ruins of a building, watching many Honkai Beasts dash past.

After they left, Sora finally breathed a sigh of relief. But when she turned around, a Honkai Beast glowing with purple light appeared.

"Ah!"

Sora worriedly tried to pull Yomi along, but the girl with dark purple hair didn't budge.

"Sister Yomi?"

Sora was puzzled. Although she tried to tell her to run quickly, her intuition told her she could trust the girl before her.

"Low-level Honkai Beast..."

Yomi glanced at the Honkai Beasts in the distance and subconsciously made her own judgment.

When the Honkai Beast saw Yomi, it visibly paused, but quickly locked its target onto Sora, who was behind the girl with dark purple hair.

"Sora, move back a bit."

Yomi gripped the black and red hilt of her sword and slowly walked forward.

As she approached the Honkai Beast, Sora noticed that for some reason, it didn't attack Sister Yomi and instead stood there blankly.

"Rest in peace."

The sword in the girl with dark purple hair's hand hadn't even been unsheathed. With a gentle sweep, the Honkai Beast was split in two and dissipated into purple light.

"Sister Yomi... you're so amazing..."

Sora couldn't help but exclaim, watching the girl with dark purple hair's elegant movements.

"..."

Compared to Sora, Yomi was actually more confused.

She had actually intended to draw her sword just now, but her intuition told her that if she drew it, something bad might happen.

"Sister Yomi, let's go home."

Sora happily pulled the girl with dark purple hair along.

"Home..."

Hearing this familiar word, Yomi was inexplicably touched, her mind going blank for a moment.

Someone must have said something similar to her before, and it was someone extremely important.

Schicksal Headquarters

"Reporting to the Bishop, Changkong City experienced an extremely brief but high-intensity Honkai energy reaction about two hours ago. However, the duration was too short, and data analysis has only just confirmed it."

Amber reported, looking at the blond man seated in the Bishop's chair.

"How high?"

Otto gently swirled the red wine in his hand, took a sip, and asked with a seemingly indifferent expression.

"3000hw."

It was only when Otto heard the number from Amber that he narrowed his eyes.

"Is that enough to birth a Herrscher? Don't worry about it for now. If there are any further anomalies, then investigate."

Under normal circumstances, 1000hw was enough to birth an Emperor-class Honkai Beast, and 2000hw was more than enough to birth an ordinary Herrscher. Maintaining 3000hw either indicated a Great Honkai coupled with the birth of a high-level Herrscher, or someone conducted a Honkai energy experiment in Changkong City, or used high-intensity Honkai energy weapons.

Otherwise, under normal circumstances, Honkai at a sustained intensity of 3000hw would be more than enough to destroy the entire Far East.

After all, this was equivalent to a Herrscher maintaining full power output, and the destruction it could cause was unimaginable.

However, since the investigated data of 3000hw was only a fleeting moment, Otto didn't see the need to pay it particular attention.

Obtaining the second Divine Key was the most important matter at present.
