I Am Welt

The newborn storm quickly grew stronger, mixing with the original storm like two flood dragons locked in a vicious struggle.

Just like fighting a forest fire with fire, the two intertwined storms collided and canceled each other out, rapidly weakening what had seemed like a terrifying disaster capable of destroying everything.

A thousand winds clashed, ten thousand clouds collided, and the torrential rain swayed left and right. Olivia's figure over the sea also became somewhat illusory.

But do not misunderstand—this was not because the girl was gradually running out of strength while fighting the disaster.

Everything here was a memory, and presenting memories required power.

In other words, Olivia had consumed too much power in pursuit of making the scene realistic, leaving insufficient power for her own part.

In plain terms, Olivia-brand CPU overheating.

That old monster loved showing off.

Shi Hen curled his lip and continued enjoying Olivia's carefully crafted special-effects blockbuster.

Setting the facts aside, the scene was still incredibly magnificent and spectacular. It deserved a five-star review.

Before long, the violent winds gradually subsided.

The sky became clear, the breeze gentle, and the sea returned to its original deep blue.

"How was that? I'm amazing, right?"

The girl suddenly appeared beside Shi Hen and asked with a proud smile.

"Please do not make me say something against my conscience."

Shi Hen answered with a calm smile.

Sure enough, history was all lies. How could anyone in this world flatten the sea with a single sword strike?

What Shi Hen had seen was merely someone cheating with a Divine Key.

From beginning to end, the girl had not even drawn her sword.

He seriously suspected that she did not know how to use one at all.

"How rude! Edward and the others all said I was amazing."

As she spoke, the girl snapped her fingers.

Countless figures immediately appeared atop the castle walls, cheering for Olivia's great deed of saving Sicily. Among them, the figure of a young man in aristocratic robes with a gentle smile was especially clear.

"..." Shi Hen fell silent for a moment before saying, "In later generations, everyone said you swept away the storm with a single sword strike."

"Mm. Edward said writing it that way would look cooler too." The girl nodded, then added, "Oh, Edward seemed to be some kind of historian."

The true culprit behind the rumor had appeared.

"You two really are loving."

At this point, what else could Shi Hen say?

"Thanks for the compliment."

The girl smiled brightly, her body becoming even more transparent.

The power she had preserved through the Divine Key was nearly exhausted.

"Olivia Raymond, you... really are incredible."

The surrounding space rapidly turned into motes of light and faded away. Shi Hen looked at the girl and finally spoke in a serious tone.

As everyone knew, energy could only be transferred; it could not disappear out of thin air.

This Moonlight Throne was merely an energy converter, transforming Honkai Energy from Imaginary Space into light and heat in the real world.

And controlling that light and heat, turning them into storms and disasters to fight against the calamity, had all been Olivia's own power.

This knight who had lived a thousand years ago truly was a genius in every sense of the word!

"Of course I know. Edward has already told me that countless times."

Faced with the youth's praise, Olivia merely gave a lovely smile.

Shi Hen: "..."

It was almost over, and she still had to shower him with dog food?

"Farewell, person from the future." Taking a step forward, the girl patted Shi Hen's head. "Edward said that enough power had to be left behind to prevent Little Moon from being taken by bad people.

But in my opinion, Little Moon should be able to serve a greater purpose in your hands, right?"

She could sense that there was not much malice in this youth's heart.

Otherwise, he would not have indulged her nonsense, and she would not have merely invited him to watch a show.

The power she had left in this space was not solely capable of presenting memories.

"It will."

Shi Hen did not refuse her head pat and answered calmly.

As his words fell, the boundless space was left with only the youth and the quietly floating metal ring. The golden-haired girl was long gone.

Chapter 14: I Am Welt

After returning from Imaginary Space to reality, Shi Hen discovered that dawn was approaching.

The timing was just right.

Still floating in the air, Shi Hen looked down. Sure enough, the castle ruins had been occupied by a large number of Honkai Beasts, while Raven and... she was hiding quietly in a corner.

He had almost forgotten that Raven seemed to possess a special ability to communicate with Honkai Beasts.

Although she could not talk Honkai Beasts to death, she could still pretend to be a neutral unit among a large group of them.

Raven naturally noticed the change in the sky as well. Her lips moved, and her voice came clearly through Shi Hen's Bluetooth earphone... Shi Hen took out the now-silent earpiece and smacked it hard, confirming that the thing was genuinely broken.

The communication device did not even have Imaginary Space compatibility. One-star review!

Separated by nearly a hundred meters, with a noisy swarm of Honkai Beasts below them, Raven did not choose to shout. Instead, she raised both hands and made several gestures.

This time, Shi Hen understood.

The wind was tight—run!

They had already taken what they came for, so it was time to make their escape.

As for the remaining Honkai Beasts... they had to trust in the strength of the Valkyries of Schicksal.

Seeing Raven's gestures, Shi Hen could not help shaking his head lightly.

Unfortunately, they could no longer run now.

The white bracelet on his left wrist flickered, and a pure white mask immediately covered Shi Hen's face, extending backward to firmly conceal his black hair as well.

If he wanted to hide his identity, he had to do it properly. He could not be like some silver-haired ANBU from Naruto.

After finishing all that, Shi Hen raised his head and looked east.

There, a silver-white steel behemoth was speeding toward them beneath the morning light.

"This is the Blade of Immortality Squad of Schicksal's Valkyrie forces. We are carrying out a military operation. Personnel in the Raymond Castle area, surrender immediately and submit to inspection."

Before the warship arrived, a drone reached them first, delivering Schicksal's surrender notice.

After all, unidentified people appearing in the heart of a Honkai incident could hardly be said to be unrelated to it.

Ignoring the drone circling around him, Shi Hen bent his knees slightly as circles of white light appeared beneath his feet.

Bang!

An explosive boom rang out as Shi Hen shot forward like a cannonball. In an instant, he even broke the sound barrier, leaving behind a ring of outward-spreading turbulence.

"..."

Watching the youth charge toward the warship at high speed instead of retreating, Raven felt completely numb.

Was this guy brain-damaged? He dared charge an entire fully armed Valkyrie force alone?

Even she had not been this bold when she was young!

Still, complaints aside, Raven had no intention of running away alone.

Moving to a more concealed position, Raven raised her hand, summoned Seven Thunders of Sin's Purge, and set up her Sniper Rifle.

She could not keep up with the youth's speed, but she could at least provide some long-range fire support.

On the other side, the Valkyries quickly reacted after discovering a target rapidly approaching them.

Panels opened, and one cannon barrel after another extended from the warship, swiftly locking onto Shi Hen.

"Free-fire mode, open fire!"

Inside the bridge, Vice Captain Rita issued the command.

Since he had ignored their warning, he was obviously an enemy.

As her words fell, countless missiles and energy blasts instantly shot forth, weaving into a dense barrage that tightly covered the space ahead of Shi Hen.

As long as Shi Hen continued forward, he would inevitably collide with this net of firepower.

Yet to the Valkyries' surprise, the white-robed figure rushing toward them suddenly paused before sharply changing direction, forcibly circling around the side of the barrage.

"The target is advancing through repeated launches!"

"No flight equipment detected on the target."

The Valkyrie in charge of observation immediately reported.

At those words, the expressions of the Valkyries changed slightly.

In this increasingly advanced technological era, humanity had long conquered the skies. Schicksal had even developed portable single-person flight equipment.

But in their understanding, only one kind of creature could soar through the heavens without external assistance—Herrschers!

"No, the target is not a Herrscher." As if guessing what everyone was thinking, Rita spoke up to deny it. "Look carefully. Every time he changes trajectory, there is a brief pause.

This person... has condensed his Honkai Energy to the extreme, to the point where he can use it as a foothold."

After hearing Rita's explanation, everyone immediately felt that it would have been better if he were a Herrscher.

Could something capable of shattering their worldview like this really still be human?

They all used Honkai Energy, but they were only somewhat stronger and faster. Yet this person could already fly.

The gap was simply too great. They could not even see his taillights.

Watching him evade the warship's artillery and energy blasts again and again, like an elusive white ghost performing a thrilling dance in the sky, Rita could only sigh helplessly. "...From here on, we can only rely on Lady Durandal."

Faced with a monster that defied common sense, there was simply nothing they could do.

On the warship's deck, Durandal watched the rapidly enlarging figure in her sight and could not help pursing her lips. Both hands tightly gripped her Divine Key pistols.

She could feel it. This enemy was strong—so strong that he gave her an almost suffocating sensation.

This would be a battle where she had to stake her life!

Boom!

After evading the barrage of artillery shells and energy bolts, Shi Hen finally landed on the warship's deck in an overwhelmingly cool superhero pose. The immense impact even dented the metal deck.

"Who exactly are you!?"

Durandal asked in a low voice.

Without answering immediately, Shi Hen carefully examined the golden-haired girl before him.

Her brilliant golden hair was tied into a neat high ponytail. Her facial features were equally exquisite, yet entirely different from Kiana's. Her figure was also far better than that white-haired girl's, showing that Schicksal's Valkyrie forces had rather decent food.

Unlike the uniforms worn by ordinary Valkyries, Durandal wore a lightweight suit of battle armor primarily colored white, perfectly highlighting her heroic aura. It was likely Schicksal's third-generation Valkyrie armor.

Mm, he had checked her look. It was a style Shi Hen had never seen before.

"Our tastes are quite similar. We both chose white outfits."

Shi Hen pointed at his white robe.

As the saying went, a thousand troops and ten thousand horses would avoid the white-robed one. Durandal and he truly possessed that level of intimidation.

Of course, Durandal had not fully developed yet, so she was still somewhat inferior to him.
