[The Herrscher of Void, the Herrscher of Thunder, the Herrscher of Wind, the Herrscher of Death, the Herrscher of Fire, and the Herrscher of Reason core that was just taken from Welt's body.]
Sirin became the first Herrscher in history to possess six Herrscher Cores.
"It's time to go back to Earth and unleash divine punishment on those ants who call themselves humans!"
Riding on Bella, Sirin descends upon Earth once again.
■2000年2月12日12点05分,第二律者带领着大量崩坏兽,突然出现在巴比伦塔的上空。
■At 12:20, the Tower of Babylon fell. A-rank Valkyrie Salome Jhokanan and A-rank Valkyrie Shub Nicholas led the combatants and researchers inside the tower to evacuate.
■Finally, thanks to the heroic sacrifice of the A-rank Valkyrie Salome Jockan, most of the people successfully evacuated...
Faced with the world-ending crisis brought about by the six-in-one Sirin, destiny has finally made its move.
Fu Hua, Cecilia, and Otto each killed a Herrscher that had split off from Sirin. Then, with the power of Fu Hua, a warrior from the former civilization, they defeated Sirin.
But with the help of "God", Sirin blocked Fu Hua's Taixu Sword God.
Having obtained the Feather of Dust, Sirin intended to manipulate the remaining two enemies through illusion, but she never expected that within this fabricated dream, she would find what she had always longed for—family and maternal love.
It feels completely different from the Taixu Sword Technique I learned!
Moreover, Fu Hua, what a familiar name, and that face, she felt so familiar too, where had she seen her before?
In the illusion created by Feather Dust, Siegfried, Cecilia, and Sirin formed a happy family.
One day, Siegfried walked into a convenience store.
He casually picked up a chocolate with an Allahato-themed packaging.
“I remember they liked this…”
“This chocolate looks delicious,” someone said beside him.
"Yes, yes, you like this flavor too?" Siegfried turned his head.
“You…” Siegfried’s eyes widened immediately. “Who are you? I think I’ve seen you before.”
This person looks familiar, but he can't remember who he is.
Suddenly! He felt everything around him collapsing.
"Siegfried, your daily life is blissful and fulfilling. Is this a beautiful dream or a nightmare for you? Open your eyes and see which side is the reality you should be protecting."
“You…!” Siegfried reached out to touch the mysterious bespectacled man in front of him, but could only watch helplessly as he walked into the collapsing crack.
"who are you!?"
After a moment of disorientation, he opened his eyes again, and there he was in the convenience store again. Everything that had just happened seemed to be just his hallucination.
He was breathing heavily.
Is this... a nightmare?
At St. Freya Academy.
Kiana, usually so lively, was unusually silent, even somewhat...sad?
If you look closely, you'll see a few tears still clinging to the corners of her eyes.
"Hey, why are you crying?" Sirin asked, puzzled.
"Why? I've never even seen my mother!"
“You…” Xilin was momentarily speechless.
In the end, she could only manage to choke out, "Stop crying! You... how come I've never seen you before! You are me, everything you have is mine!"
A few days later, Siegfried, who was shopping with Cecilia and Sirin, found a seat and sat down casually while carrying large and small bags.
But whenever he has free time, he can't help but recall the scene from a few days ago.
What happened at the convenience store that day? And what did that man mean by "the reality that should be protected"?
What am I thinking about...? I am very content to have such a happy and fulfilling family.
Even if the "real world" is gradually heading towards destruction?
Siegfried suddenly opened his eyes, and the man was in front of him again.
“Siegfried, every second you stay here, the more critical the reality becomes.” The man coldly revealed the reality he had been ignoring. “Or are you planning to give up the fight and drown in this false dream?”
While calculating the timing of the battle, Einstein suddenly seemed to realize something and looked up.
“Tesla, do you see that?” she asked the Tesla driving the Alahato.
“…Yes.” Seeing that familiar figure, tears immediately welled up in Tesla’s eyes. “He’s back.”
Before Einstein and Tesla, Walter's phantom image points forward.
He succeeded. Just as they had said before heading to the moon, Welt hid his consciousness within the Herrscher core, which contained over 30 personality fragments.
This is precisely why Walter was able to appear in Sirin's dreams, constantly reminding Siegfried of the truth behind them.
"The robin seems to have a different idea about dreams than you," the dreamer said from atop the high wall.
“The robin has been to many worlds, and perhaps she has already discovered the tune that suits her best.” Sunday’s expression remained unwavering. “But all I need to do is build a place that truly represents people’s dreams.”
Chapter 32 Repeated Jumps
Because of Bella's injury, Sirin was awakened from her dream.
Upon learning that Cecilia had not been hypnotized by Feather Dust at all, Sirin was furious. She believed that everything that happened in the dream was a performance by them to deceive her.
Just as she reached the peak of her anger, the man, Walter Young, made his official appearance in this dream.
After using the impact of the Moon Throne to send Siegfried and his wife out of the dream, the Star of Eden reappears, and Walter once again faces Sirin alone.
"Second Herrscher, let's continue that duel on the moon."
Unfortunately, Walter, now only possessing consciousness, was no match for Sirin, and he was quickly defeated once again.
Although, with Einstein's help, Alahatto stole the Conquest Gem from Sirin, weakening her.
But soon, Alahato was also shattered.
"First, we must make this sneaky traitor disappear completely!"
Sirin extracted the core of the Herrscher of Reason and crushed it. She intended to kill Welt completely!
Having defeated Welt once again and shattered the core of the Herrscher of Reason, Sirin could no longer contain her anger as Theresa, Siegfried, and Cecilia arrived.
After witnessing Sirin send Siegfried and Cecilia into the imaginary space she created, Theresa activated the weapon that could truly restrain Sirin.
"Judah's Oath, Zero Rated Power, Activate!"
The Oath of Judah, the Eleventh Key of God, was crafted from the core of the Law of Binding.
The Herrscher of Constraints is not particularly destructive, but within the barrier it creates, all Honkai energy will be rendered ineffective, and only the Eleventh Herrscher can move freely.
This is the oath of Judah, the zeroth rated power—the divine grace barrier.
Within the barrier, Sirin once again felt the powerlessness she had experienced as a test subject.
Theresa picked up the Soul Steel Spear and pierced her body.
Just when Theresa thought it was all over, Sirin rose up again, and the wound on her chest healed.
In the moment of crisis, Siegfried, wielding the Heavenly Flame, broke out of the space created by Sirin. At that moment, his appearance was more like that of a Honkai Beast than a human.
That was the sacred gene hidden in the Kaslana family bloodline. Siegfried awakened this power after being reminded by a mysterious person, and it was enough for him to contend with Sirin's power.
He stole the core of the Herrscher of Death from Sirin's body, rendering her unable to regenerate.
The power of the Herrscher of the Void then spiraled out of control.
Faced with that immense power, neither Cecilia nor Siegfried could resist it.
However, at the critical moment, that man appeared once again!
As Estella dealt with the task just given to her by Lady Black Tower, she couldn't help but feel a headache coming on.
Because Mr. Walter's home planet Earth is highly similar to their blue planet in some respects, Ms. Black Tower issued several investigation missions, requesting that they conduct an investigation.
Even though the space station already knew everything about Azure Star, she suddenly didn't know what to investigate.
[Arahat briefly resisted the power of the Herrscher of the Void for a moment, then activated the defensive mode of the Moon Throne, and a protective shield was generated next to Siegfried and Cecilia.]
The shattered core gleamed.
In a peaceful mental world, Siegfried met Walter again.
"...We have one last chance."
In that brief moment, Walter finished explaining his final plan.
With the protective shield shattered, Cecilia was the first to set off.
Black Abyss, White Flower, Holy Blood Unleashed—A Hundred Flowers in Blood.
"Let's pave the way forward for Siegfried."
This attack penetrated the core of the Herrscher of the Void, guiding Siegfried toward his target.
On the other side, the activator was injected into his arm, and Siegfried once again raised the Judgment of Heavenly Fire.
"Walter, once again—"
Fight alongside me!
The core of the Law of Reason is embedded in the Holy Judgment of Heavenly Fire.
"Heavenly Fire Judgment, the boundary is lifted."
"I'm willing to give my life to protect the people I love most!" Siegfried's eyes widened instantly.
Heavenly Judgment of Fire - Annihilation Form!
Siegfried bravely unleashed a sword strike capable of destroying the continent.
Even from outside the atmosphere, one could see the spectacular flames shining across the Earth's surface.
Chapter 33 A Glorious Resurrection and a New Beginning
[Headquarters of Destiny]
Otto, who had been observing everything from beginning to end, began to fear Siegfried's power, a power that was beyond his control.
In order to kill Siegfried, he declared that he would launch a Honkai Fission Bullet at the location of the Second Herrscher and Siegfried in order to deliver the final blow to the Second Herrscher.
Siegfried burned everything he had when he swung that sword.
In the darkness, he slowly opened his eyes, and there before him stood Cecilia.
Her tears fell onto Siegfried's face as she spoke of a longing that could never be fully expressed.
Ultimately, she kept the Black Abyss White Flower to protect Siegfried.
She caught Sirin as she fell from the sky before the Honkai Fission Bomb arrived.
In the illusion, she saw Sirin's pain and loneliness. Her love for Sirin was never fake.
She gently hugged Xilin.
At least, in these final moments—
"So that you can feel warmth."
The Honkai energy released by the Second Herrscher once spread beyond the Siberian Plain.
More than 100,000 civilians were exposed to Honkai energy radiation.
They could only helplessly await their death. But a blood-red petal falling from the sky saved them.
The Honkai energy within those who came into contact with the petals disappeared.
This is Cecilia's final act of tenderness towards the world.
The final death toll was less than three thousand.
The Second Collapse has come to an end.
"The forces of Destiny defeated the Second Herrscher on their own without any assistance."
