Do you want some?

Holding a chicken leg as if it were a sword pointed at the other self, [Fu Hua] asked with a smile, then took a big bite off more than half of the chicken leg, "I almost forgot, you are just a Feather of Dust, you can't eat anything."

"Alas, even a treasure as precious as Feather of Dust has its limitations."

Fu Hua: "..."

This guy is really too childish, isn't he?

Whether it's the Honkai or her own memories, they are all very serious and proper things. How come they all become so childish when put together?

"So? Now you understand your true identity, right?"

If you obediently admit it, I can even share this sensory experience with you, so you can also experience the feeling of eating.

Fu Hua said enticingly.

"No need."

Fu Hua calmly shook her head.

As a warrior who has fought for five thousand years, her will is not easily shaken.

"Ha! I can't care about you. You just stay out of there and watch!"

Even if you beg me now, I will never let you feel a thing!

The solution she had painstakingly devised easily failed, and Fu Hua immediately became furious. She began a whirlwind of gluttony, occasionally commenting on the boy's cooking skills to further tempt her the other self.

"..."

Watching the Herrscher of Knowledge eat with such utter lack of manners, as if she were a starving ghost reincarnated, Fu Hua couldn't help but take a deep breath to barely suppress the frustration in her heart.

Only in moments like this would she feel grateful that the one occupying her body was the Herrscher of Knowledge; otherwise, if others saw her in this state...

But as her gaze swept over the group of people with different expressions, none of whom seemed to be aware of the Herrscher of Knowledge, Fu Hua once again felt the weight on her shoulders.

She had to choose between destroying the society herself or letting the Honkai continue to rage.

Fu Hua's gaze slowly moved, landing on the boy diagonally opposite Bronya, who was peeling shrimp for Seele.

Having spent a considerable amount of time with the group and learned about recent events, she still had a great deal of trust in the boy's intelligence.

Therefore, even if she really had to die, she would rather believe the boy.

As she thought this, a flash of crimson light appeared in Fu Hua's eyes.

Puff~

A sound like birds flapping their wings suddenly rang out, Shi Hen realized that the black and red halo that had been hovering over his vision had suddenly disappeared in Setsuna, and Schariac was eating even more freely than the First white-haired girl appeared in front of him without any concealment.

A perfectly timed Shi Hen couldn't help but exclaim, "Class..."

The words had barely left his mouth Shi Hen's consciousness, causing him to swallow his remaining words.

"Shi Hen, that is me, Fu Hua."

A voice rang directly in Shi Hen's mind, "Time is of the essence now, you must remember every word I say."

First of all, the one standing before you now is not me, but the Herrscher of Knowledge born in this era.

But it seems that a lot of my memories have been mixed into her personality, which is why she mistook herself for me.

I need you to expose her and make her realize the truth of the matter.

However, you must also remember that she is not yet completely under the control of the Honkai. There is still a kind side to her personality. Be sure not to push her completely to the side of the Honkai.

I know this won't be easy, but you're the only one I can ask for help right now.

Go ahead and do it; I'll use what I have left to help you.

Shi Hen's mind returned to calm, as if everything that had just happened was an illusion, with only the Schariac in front of him remaining crystal clear.

To be fair, compared to the power of Honkai Beasts, the authority of the Herrscher is indeed much stronger in every aspect.

If we compare the Mayura Factor in Shi Hen to red-eye in another film set, then the authority of the Herrscher of Knowledge undoubtedly belongs to the level of circle eyes.

If the other party decides to do something on a whim, they can pull the entire population of a city into a fantasy world, and even pull people across half the globe in the form of memes.

In contrast, Shi Hen can only induce illusions in others through close contact.

This is a near-complete crushing defeat.

Of course, given the various attributes of Shi Hen itself, the current Schariac cannot make him fall into an illusion; at most, it can only obstruct his vision.

But now, with the "limited help" provided by Fu Hua, this last obstacle has disappeared.

Well, that will save him from racking his brains later on how to subtly outmaneuver the Schariac.

"What are you moving?"

Noticing the brief unease the boy had shown, Kiana blinked and asked.

"It's nothing. I was just thinking that once the Anti-Entropy issue is resolved, let's find an opportunity to go to Africa to see zebras."

Shihen glanced at the Book of Cang Xuan, which had become shiny from being kneaded and squeezed by Schariac, Shi Hen looked away calmly.

Finding Schariac is a huge undertaking, and he needs to think about it carefully.

That's right, that's the truth. It's not that he found Fu Hua, who was blushing and trying to urge him on but was worried about being discovered by the Herrscher of Knowledge, amusing.

"Oh? Shi Hen, are you very interested in Africa?"

After picking the bones out of a piece of fish for Wendy, who had a resentful look in her eyes, Theresa raised an eyebrow and asked.

"Before I knew about the Honkai, my dream was always to be a traveler."

He smiled and said, Shi Hen tone extremely sincere.

If the Milky Way is his goal, then his current dream is actually to be a traveler.

Therefore, he was not lying.

"Speaking of which, when I first met you, you were also traveling~"

Kiana, naturally unaware of the boy's ulterior motives, remarked with a sigh.

"If it's for tourism..."

As she pondered this, Theresa glanced at the green-haired girl beside her out of the corner of her eye.

Even though the pain caused by the Fourth Honkai Outbreak has not completely disappeared, New Zealand, where the Oceania Branch is located, is still an excellent tourist destination.

Moreover, she had promised Wendy that she would accompany him back to New Zealand, so if she could bring the boy along as well...

"Does the headmaster have any suggestions?"

Bronya asked calmly.

"It's too early to discuss this now. Let's talk about it later."

Theresa shook her head.

Conservatively speaking, it would take several months just to capture the World Serpent spies within Anti-Entropy before any initial results are seen.

In addition, the reform of the Executor System that the young man is working hard to promote will keep the other party busy for quite some time.

Therefore, she has ample time to do ideological work with teenagers.

Some things are better handled by a teenager, who is the same age as her, than by her.

Why does it feel like she's actively supporting the boy's playboy lifestyle?

Theresa glanced at her silly niece across the street, who was still lost in fond memories, and a pang of shame welled up inside her.

"If the Honkai were to disappear from Earth one day, what would Miss Anna want to do?"

Looking at the White-haired Girl was silently eating with her head down and exuded a strong aura of being out of place, Shi Hen smiled and asked with concern.

Although she has joined the St. Freya Herrscher family, Anna clearly still has a long way to go before she can truly integrate into the group.

But it doesn't matter. As the Third Generation Leader of Anti-Entropy, he will guide the other party to build a new bond.

As he thought about it, Shi Hen glanced at the white-haired girl beside him, a hint of helplessness appearing in his eyes.

As heirs to Schicksal same the Big Three Families, veterans of the Herrscher profession, and fellow individuals who helped awaken Anna's humanity, this was a task that should have been Kiana's.

Unfortunately, the white-haired girl doesn't seem to have such a high level of awareness.

"Eh? Is Shi Hen asking me?"

Startled by the boy's question, Anna looked somewhat flustered, then shook her head sadly, "I don't know, I've never thought about this kind of question before."

As someone born with Schariac mission to Anti-Honkai, she has no right to consider such things.

"..."

Seeing Anna's gloomy face, Kiana's initial dissatisfaction vanished instantly.

No matter how much she wanted to possess the boy, kindness and enthusiasm remained the core of the white-haired girl's heart, something that nothing could conceal.

"If it were me, I'd like to travel with you, Hen."

Kiana gave Anna a glare, then smiled and spoke softly, trying to ease the somewhat chilly atmosphere caused by Anna.

Bronya wants to be a game developer and make the most fun games in the world.

Seemingly sensing the white-haired girl's intention, Bronya responded.

"Seele ... I want to be a teacher when I grow up, and take care of more children like Mother Cocolia did."

Seele also mustered up her courage and spoke up.

"Oh! I know that! I often see Seele telling stories to the children at the base!"

Kiana added with a smile, "If Seele becomes a teacher in the future, she will definitely be very popular with the children."

"Hehehe..."

Looking at her with such warm eyes from the white-haired girl, Seele immediately smiled shyly.

"Hey! It's too early to be thinking about these things! We're still a long way from defeating the Honkai!"

Seeing that she seemed to be subtly excluded from the conversation, Fu Hua immediately started shouting.

She's still working tirelessly to defeat the Honkai, how can you suddenly get carried away?

"I believe it's never too late to plan for the future."

Shaking his head, Shi Hen said in an extremely firm tone, "Even if the world were to end tomorrow, I would still prepare for things a year... or even ten years from now."

I firmly believe that humanity's yearning and anticipation for a better future is the most important support that enables us to overcome obstacles and reach tomorrow.

Before Schariac could object, Shi Hen continued, "If the Honkai disappears in the future and the Class President is found, what are your plans, Senior Book of Cang Xuan?"

"..."

Seeing that the problem had been thrown at her, Fu Hua couldn't help but ponder it.

She's always been focused on defeating Kevin and the others to become the world's number one; she hasn't even considered such questions yet.

On the other side, seeing Schariac's immediately worried expression, Shi Hen's lips curled up slightly.

For Schariac, who is only a few days old, figuring out what he should do right now is difficult enough. As for the future... if Schariac could figure that out, then the other person wouldn't be Schariac.

"But we still don't know if that Class President is real or fake."

Bronya added calmly.

"Pah! Of course I'm the real Fu Hua! You little brat, stop spreading rumors about me!"

Upon hearing Bronya's words, Fu Hua jumped up like a cat whose tail had been stepped on.

"Um???"

In an instant, everyone's eyes fell on Schariac.

"..."

Realizing she had given herself away, Fu Hua immediately unleashed countless feathers, forcibly altering everyone's consciousness to make them forget this strange incident.

Seeing the brief look of confusion in Kiana and the others' eyes, and Schariac Shi Hen couldn't help but shake his head slightly and say softly, "Regardless of whether that Class President is real or fake, the most important thing is what she will choose to do in the future."
