Himeko Murata: "I didn't expect Theresa to have such hidden potential."
Theresa: "Hmph, let's see if you dare laugh at me for not getting a headscarf anymore! Especially you, Himeko!"
The Academy Director's mind was filled with a single thought.
Himeko, you've been pulling out textbooks and study materials from strange places for years, and I've tolerated it for too long!
Thirty years in the east, thirty years in the west.
The grown-up Theresa walked up to Himeko Murata, confidently stepping forward. The two magnificent peaks touched, and for a moment, it was impossible to tell which was superior.
The onlookers were stunned, watching the scene unfold in disbelief.
Chapter 12: Another Herrscher?
Himeko Murata: "Theresa, are you a child? Doing such a boring thing."
Raiden Mei: "Academy Director, this is the dormitory. Please mind your image and don't embarrass St. Freya Academy."
Bronya: "Academy Director, please stop your boring behavior."
Theresa: "Hmph, you're all just jealous."
Theresa scanned her surroundings and then fixed her gaze on Bronya, slowly moving downwards.
Heh~, Bronya is nothing special!
Invincibility is so, so lonely!
However, before Theresa could revel in her triumph for long, to everyone's astonishment, holy light flickered, and Theresa returned to her original form.
Theresa: "Hey! System, can't the things you give me last longer? They wore off in less than ten minutes!"
Himeko Murata: "Theresa, give up. Some things you just don't have, and you can't force them."
Theresa: "Hmph!"
The Academy Director pouted unhappily and turned her gaze back to the screen.
[The screen flashed, showing Mei appearing on a street in ruins, where she encountered a man out of nowhere.
Kevin Kaslana.
The air turned cold with his arrival, and Mei felt as if she were in an ice cellar.
Then the chilling pressure vanished. Mei saw Kevin's eyes were hollow, filled with a sadness that even time couldn't erase, a sorrow that could never heal.]
Pardofelis: "Boss Kevin?"
Elysia: "Oh, the leader of World Serpent is Kevin? That's quite surprising."
Raiden Mei: "What's going on? Weren't you just saying that World Serpent's leader was Mobius?"
Pardofelis: "Theoretically, it should be Sister Mei. But we can't be sure about things fifty thousand years later. And if Boss Kevin were to be the leader of World Serpent, it would make sense."
Elysia: "After all, he was the first of Fire Moth."
Eden: "Elysia, didn't you fail to shake off being the first? You should be the first now."
Whether she was the first or not didn't really matter.
That position was purely a game for Elysia and Kevin. As soon as Elysia came up with a fun idea, she would take back the position, much to the astonishment of the new members.
Pardofelis: "Am I the only one who noticed Boss Kevin's eyes looked so sad? Or rather... hollow?"
Eden: "Kevin was already like this when he was with Fire Moth, right? He was cold to everyone except Su and Elysia."
Elysia: "It's different. Kevin used to be cold, like a wooden doll. But in the image, his eyes are filled with sadness. Fifty thousand years is too cruel for him."
They had all chosen to end with the previous civilization, and had not experienced the torment of such a long passage of time.
But fifty thousand years of existence were only to find that sliver of hope to defeat the Honkai in the darkness.
Just imagining it in her mind made one feel oppressed and despairing.
[In the image, Kevin remained silent for a long time, then slowly spoke.
"Raiden Mei, you have someone you want to save, but neither Schicksal nor Anti-Entropy can fulfill your wish. I promise you, World Serpent can save that girl."
"What are your conditions?"
There's no such thing as a free lunch, Mei knew this well.
"You."
Kevin's words were calm and brief, yet carried a heavy weight, like laws inscribed on stone pillars, unchangeable and undeniable.]
Kiana: "Pfft! Mei, you absolutely cannot agree to this! This guy doesn't look like a good person at all!"
Theresa: "I can't believe this person, with his upright appearance, harbors such disgusting thoughts! To think he wants to poach someone from my Theresa, how detestable!"
Pardofelis: "Um, Sister Elysia, is Boss Kevin perhaps..."
Elysia: "What are you thinking? Don't you know Kevin? He definitely means he wants Mei to join World Serpent. Can you imagine Kevin being interested in any girl other than Mei?"
Pardofelis: "That's impossible."
There were so many beautiful girls in the previous civilization, yet Kevin never even gave them a second glance.
Even if I saw it with my own eyes, it was when the other party was eroded by Honkai and I killed them in one blow.
Kiana: "No way, I just don't agree!"
Himeko made up her mind, she had to train harder, become the strongest Valkyrie as soon as possible, and then protect Mei.
She absolutely couldn't let Mei join World Serpent!
[In the image, Kevin's words were full of power, making them difficult to defy, yet Mei had to face the weight of those words.
"I want to know the specific method, and then watch her get out of danger. If you can really do it, I'll do whatever you want."
Mei said firmly, at this point nothing could interfere with her determination to help Kiana.
"That girl named Kiana is in grave danger, the erosion of the core has exceeded her limit. To keep her alive, the extra core must be separated from her body."
"There is only one method, I will make you become the Herrscher of Thunder again."
Kevin's words made Mei's eyes widen, and for a moment she couldn't believe his crazy idea.
"You are the chosen Herrscher, and the door to the imaginary has always remained in your body. When the residual energy of the third Honkai is absorbed by that door, you will awaken again."
And at that time, Mei will also regain the authority of the Herrscher of Thunder from Kiana.
A new core will condense in Mei's body, and the Conqueror Gem will disintegrate and disappear.
By reducing one core, Kiana's symptoms will also be alleviated.]
Pardofelis: "Wait, another Herrscher?"
Himeko Murata: "Kiana will also become a Herrscher?"
Elysia: "This is truly a surprise, to meet two Herrschers in the same class."
Unbelievable, unreasonable.
Even in the previous civilization, the birth of a Herrscher meant destruction, and it was basically impossible for Herrschers to appear simultaneously in a small area.
However, not only did they appear now, but both of them were right among them!
Kiana: "I will also become a Herrscher like Mei?"
Pardofelis: "Not only that, but you seem to have more than one Herrscher core. Amazing. Sis, you're the boss, Kitty needs protection!"
Can't afford to offend, can't afford to offend.
She originally thought there were a few noobs in the group, and she, Pardofelis, wouldn't be at the bottom.
But now it seemed that they were all big shots, and they were all putting on a show for her.
Heavens, she was just a weak, pitiful, and helpless Pardofelis, why was she put in a place with two Herrschers?
Although with Elysia, it should be three.
Wuwuwu...
Pardofelis was very wronged, so many Herrschers, this place clearly wasn't a proper chat group, she didn't know if it was too late to leave now.

Chapter Thirteen: You Are the Most Important Person in My Life
Himeko Murata: "But I still can't figure out why Kiana would also become a Herrscher?"
Bronya: "I'm not sure, but one thing that can be confirmed from the information is that Kiana's condition is very bad, and she even needs Mei-sister to share the Herrscher core with her to be saved."
Kiana: "Wuwuwu, Mei, you're too good to me."
Himeko leaped up and directly hugged Mei's waist.
As expected, Mei did care about her Kiana, and Mei was so good to her, she didn't know how to repay such great kindness.
She could only reluctantly offer herself!
[In the image.
"..."
Mei stood silently opposite Kevin, her mind replaying the events of the past few days.
Suddenly, she understood everything.
"As long as I become a Herrscher, Kiana can be saved?" Mei asked Kevin again.
Kevin nodded: "That's right."
"Then there's nothing to hesitate about. Three years ago, she brought me out of the darkness. Without Kiana, I wouldn't be who I am today. For her, I'm willing to return to that darkness!"
Mei said firmly, then changed the subject: "But if I am once again controlled by Honkai, I hope you can..."
If she were controlled by Honkai, she would definitely hurt innocent people again, and even hurt Kiana.
At that time, she could only entrust the person in front of her to end her life.
"You don't have to worry, that won't happen."
Kevin said: "What you should really worry about is what happens after you become a Herrscher. This time you can save Kiana, but next time, she will still be in danger."
"She will inevitably use the power of the Herrscher of the Void again and again for the people around her, for this world."
"As long as the Honkai exists, as long as a Herrscher is born, she will definitely step forward and push herself to the brink of death."
Kevin's words were like ice picks, continuously piercing Mei's heart.
She knew very well that Kiana was indeed the kind of idiot who would do anything for others, even sacrifice her life.
"No, I won't let that happen."
"You can't stop her, or you wouldn't be here."
Kevin said coldly.
"But you have another choice. Herrschers will come one after another soon, and the war between humanity and the Honkai will enter the next stage."
"You can join forces with World Serpent, eliminate the Honkai, capture Herrschers, and seal their powers so that the Herrscher of the Void can no longer increase her strength."
Only by leaving Kiana's side could she truly protect Kiana.
The imaginary gate in the sky began to open, and darkness, despair, and immense power descended upon this world.
At this moment, Mei would also make her choice, for the most important person.
Kiana: "Wuwuwu, Mei, I'm so touched. I'm that important to you, wuwuwu."
After learning the whole story, Himeko was moved to tears. She never expected to hold such an important place in Mei's heart.
For you, I am willing to return to darkness.
She was so deeply moved.
This kindness, even if she repaid it by giving herself to him and spending the rest of her life doing so, would still not be enough, right?
Bronya: "The whole story is becoming clear. Kiana became the Herrscher of the Void, standing against Schicksal, and she's about to lose control of the Herrscher consciousness within her body."
Bronya: "What Mei wants to do is become the Herrscher of Thunder, help Kiana share some of the pressure, and join World Serpent to fight the Honkai."
