People are in Honkai Impact 3rd, there's a villain simulator.

The next instant, a slender hand gripped your neck, and the Herrscher of Thunder plunged her blade towards your throat.

But when she saw your bewitching eyes, gleaming with a purple light, she suddenly became dazed, her face flushed with embarrassment, and she stopped the blade from falling.

"How is this possible? I'm a Herrscher, how could I be so attracted to a human... Could it be that my human side is acting up?"

[The Herrscher of Thunder was filled with confusion. Then, she suddenly felt a splitting headache, and Carol's true self began to emerge, vying for control of her body.]

"I won't allow you to hurt Qiaoqiao!"

The Herrscher of Thunder released your neck, clutching her aching head, and retreated, barely suppressing Carol's consciousness. She raised her blade and cried out, "Come forth, Shesa!"

Hearing the Herrscher of Thunder's call, dark green lightning descended from the thundercloud-covered sky. A long, slender, winding body slithered through the shadows of the clouds, its dark green scales shimmering with an eerie light. A gigantic serpent's head emerged from the clouds, hissing and revealing sharp, slender fangs.

The giant serpent hiding in the clouds is the Third Herrscher's companion Honkai Beast, symbolizing the infinite Shesa.

The Herrscher of Thunder's gaze towards you revealed intense killing intent, yet her pupils also trembled slightly, revealing a hint of sentimentality. She gritted her teeth in resentment; for some reason, she simply couldn't bring herself to kill you. Instead, she summoned her symbiotic Honkai Beast to finish you off.

With a roar from Shesa, a streak of dark green light fell from the sky. If you hadn't retreated in advance, you would have been electrocuted to a crisp by now.

As Qiao Qiao stared at the giant serpent, hundreds of meters long, in the sky, the oppressive feeling made his heart pound with fear. He said to the Honkai consciousness in his mind, "Honkai, didn't you promise to help me find a wife?"

"Ok?"

The Honkai consciousness was filled with a lot of questions at this moment. You're about to die, and you're still thinking about your wife, huh?

I think you're not a follower of the Collapse, but a follower of Slaanesh.

Honkai Consciousness: "I did say, what do you want?"

"Lend me your strength, let's pull off a big heist together!"

"Oh?"

Upon hearing this, the Honkai Consciousness's eyes lit up. It never expected that its host, whose brain was full of lewd material, would actually want to do something serious.

"You're already in dire straits, what way could you possibly turn things around?"

As Qiaoqiao looked at the silver-haired girl not far away, who was breathing heavily, blushing, and filled with resentment, she said, "Then of course, I'll make the Herrscher of Thunder take my shape!"

Chapter Twenty-One: A Double Sting from the Soul and Reality

On the school rooftop, Carol kicked Jojo down, pinning him under her skirt. Looking down at Jojo, she hesitated for a moment before painfully closing her eyes as she was about to swing her blade. The blade landed right next to Jojo's ear.

She clutched her head in anguish and backed away from Qiaoqiao, her mind a struggle between two different consciousnesses vying for control of her body.

Id: Coward, stop interfering with me killing that man.

Self: I will absolutely not let you hurt Qiaoqiao!

Seeing that she couldn't easily take control of the body, the Herrscher of Thunder looked up at the dark green serpent in the sky: "Shesa, why are you just watching silently? Kill this man for me now."

The struggle between their two consciousnesses also affected Shesa, a Judgment-class Honkai Beast that roamed the sky. One wanted it to kill Jojo, while the other wanted it to protect Jojo.

Shesa didn't know which of their orders to obey, so she could only wander in the sky, silently observing the situation on the battlefield.

Jojo watched as Carol and the Herrscher of Thunder fought to a standstill, and a surge of joy welled up inside him. He shakily got up from the ground, his body already battered and bruised from the ordeal he had just endured from the Herrscher of Thunder and Shesa.

"How are the preparations for the linking with the Honkai consciousness progressing?"

"My apostle, you have no idea how difficult it is to link two Herrscher cores!" the Honkai consciousness complained. "Do you think this is as simple as making a phone call? Just wait quietly!"

Deep within JoJo's body, fragments of the Herrscher of the Void's core, whose Honkai consciousness is gradually shimmering with light, are merging with her.

Although it is only a branch, the Honkai consciousness within JoJo has the ability to connect with the thoughts of Honkai creations and control the behavior of Honkai Beasts and zombies. This ability can also be applied to Herrschers.

However, because Herrschers are different from Honkai Beasts and Death Knights, they possess self-awareness. Therefore, the Honkai consciousness can only use the Herrscher of the Void core to link with the Herrscher of Thunder core, allowing Jojo and Carol's consciousness to converse deep within the Herrscher core.

And that's exactly what Qiaoqiao wanted.

Honkai Consciousness: "Alright! Link complete. But you must remember that it is extremely difficult for the two cores to communicate, and the time is very short. You must finish this quickly!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a bright light appeared before Qiao Qiao's eyes, engulfing all his vision. When he came to his senses, he found himself in a vast, white space. Not far away, a girl was wrapped in chains that flickered with lightning, curled up alone on the ground.

"Carol!"

Upon seeing that familiar figure, Jojo immediately ran forward, but Carol seemed to have no welcome for Jojo's arrival at all, and didn't even look up at him!

"Don't come here!"

As if in response to Carol's voice, Jojo tried to walk over but was blocked by an invisible wall.

This is probably the wall of the heart; only if the other party doesn't accept it can Jojo get close to Carol's inner world.

"Ugh!"

The chains binding Carol tightly bound her body, causing her to scream in pain.

Those chains represent the power and will of the Herrscher's consciousness.

At this very moment, Carol and the Herrscher of Thunder are still wrestling with each other using this chain to determine who is the master of the body.

It was clear that Carol was very weak and wouldn't last much longer.

"Jojo, escape while I'm still conscious," Carol said painfully. "I can't hold on much longer."

Left with no other choice, Jojo could only stand there and whisper, "Carol, you must not give up. I came here to bring you back to the real world!"

Hearing Jojo's promise, Carol was overjoyed. She so wished she could grab Jojo's outstretched hand and leave this place with him.

But... she has killed too many people. The entire population of Canghai City, and people from other cities, have died because of her. What face does she have left to return to reality and live happily?

If it weren't for the Herrscher of Thunder wanting to harm JoJo, she wouldn't have put up the slightest resistance.

She'd rather stay in this empty world to escape reality, or simply die...

Tears welled in Carol's eyes: "Jojo, thank you for being so good to me, but I've already killed so many people, I don't deserve to live any longer."

Jojo came all the way to the core of the Herrscher not to hear Carol wallow in despair, but to cheer her up.

“Carol, I know those things weren’t your intention.” Jojo said sincerely, “I also caused a lot of destruction in the city, but even though I was despised by everyone, you were still willing to fight against the Herrscher consciousness for me.”

"So... even if you are despised by everyone in the world, I will always stand by your side, even if it means going against the world."

Upon hearing Jojo's words, Carol's eyes trembled slightly. Although she had made a terrible and unforgivable mistake, the thought that Jojo still needed her stirred a strong desire to survive within her.

As long as Qiaoqiao is by her side, she has the courage to bear all the sins, and she feels she can endure any amount of criticism.

"Qiaoqiao... are you telling the truth?"

Seeing the wall of her heart disappear, Jojo knew that her words had touched Carol's heart, and slowly approached her: "Of course, if the world wants to slander you as a witch, then I will transform into a demon king and let them know what true terror is."

Demon King...Witch...

Carol never imagined that Jojo would be willing to sacrifice so much for her, even if it meant going against the world.

In the past, she could only silently watch Qiao Qiao from Fu Hua's side, but now... she finally has the opportunity to stop just watching silently.

“Jojo…” Carol said shyly, her eyes darting away, “Actually, I’ve always…”

Jojo walked up to Carol. He could feel that his consciousness was disconnecting from Carol's, and there was no time left.

Qiaoqiao's gaze fell on the chains that symbolized the power of the Herrscher, and she reached out and grabbed them forcefully: "Give them to me!"

Deep within the Herrscher's core, JoJo pulled on the chains, seizing the Herrscher of Thunder's power of conquest.

Carol was completely bewildered as Jojo pulled the chain.

All those sweet words you said were just because you were greedy for your own Herrscher powers!

In reality, the Herrscher of Thunder herself was also crying out in pain, as she could feel her power being drained away.

"Damn it! That man was definitely a liar!"

Just as the Herrscher of Thunder was about to concentrate her consciousness to reclaim her powers, JoJo suddenly appeared behind her.

Taking advantage of her inattention, Qiaoqiao used the Herrscher of the Void's ability to create an imaginary hole that connected to the Herrscher of Thunder's core within her body, thus grasping the Herrscher core within her.

"Bring it to you!"

In an instant, the Herrscher of Thunder, who had been born for only an hour, received a double betrayal from both her mind and reality. She lost her power of conquest and her Herrscher core, and collapsed to the ground.

After Qiaoqiao's consciousness returned to her body, she looked at the Herrscher Core in her hand and smiled.

"Well done, Honkai consciousness."

Honkai Consciousness: "Hmph... Who do you think I am? I am the Honkai Consciousness, who transcends all things and symbolizes destruction and rebirth. Doing such a trivial matter is a piece of cake for me."

Is it an illusion?

Why does the Honkai consciousness within me seem to have become much more childish and immature than before? Could this be a side effect of fusing with the core fragment of the Herrscher of the Void?

Who cares.

Qiaoqiao looked at the Herrscher of Thunder core in her hand and was in a great mood.

Everything went as smoothly as he had planned.

Honestly, every single one of these Herrschers is so easy to fool.

But thinking about it, it makes sense. A child who is only a few hours old is still too inexperienced compared to a time traveler like myself.

Do you even understand the value of a time traveler?

Using the power of the Herrscher of the Void, Jojo opened an imaginary hole in his chest and placed the Herrscher Core, which shimmered with purple light, inside. He felt his entire body filled with powerful Honkai energy, purple lightning constantly coursing across his skin, his pupils flashing with a bewitching light, red horns growing from his forehead, crimson armor covering his entire body, and a purple katana held in Jojo's hand.

The dark green serpent that had been circling and slithering in the sky crawled down, bowing its head respectfully, having forgotten its former master, and submitting at Qiaoqiao's feet.

The power of conquest has fallen into Jojo's hands.

A new Herrscher of Thunder is born—

Chapter Twenty-Two: The Red Electric Dragon and the Island's Boom Crow

[After seizing the power of conquest, you immediately attacked the fifth squad of the Chasing Moths, led by Himeko. In full view of everyone, you ordered Shesa to coil her voluptuous body with your serpentine form. Bound tightly by Shesa, she blushed and exhaled heavy, moist breaths.]

[And you, wielding the power of lightning, looked down upon the members of the Fifth Squad, casually using Shesa as a cushion, sprouting crimson horns and transforming into a minotaur. Holding the unconscious Carol in your arms, you lifted Himeko's mature and beautiful face and kissed her soft, sweet lips.]

[Congratulations, host, you have received 100 crystals.]

Last time she forcibly kissed Fu Hua, and this time she forcibly kissed Himeko. Qiao Qiao enjoys it every time, especially doing it in front of Fu Hua. It feels so good.

Fu Hua watched as you embraced Carol and forcefully kissed Himeko, her teeth clenched into fists. For the first time, she had found a truly kind benefactor; for the first time, she had made a lifelong friend. These two joyful things intertwined. I should have experienced this dreamlike happiness. But why did it turn out like this…?

Fu Hua clenched her fists in frustration and charged at you, trying to rescue Carol and Himeko from your clutches, but was sent flying by Shesa's tail and was powerless to resist.
