To create Honkai Impact 3rd in a world where Kallen exists.

"Uh...we, we're not like you. We're Valkyries trained by the academy."

Kiana argued forcefully, but her words sounded more like she was slandering the Valkyrie Academy.

"Eh? Bronya-neechan..."

Seele looked at Bronya with some helplessness. She wasn't a Valkyrie of this academy, at least not one trained from childhood.

"That's right, that's right, why is she ignoring you, Seele? Come here, let me comfort you~" Black Seele's voice echoed in her mind. Over the past few days, Seele had gradually grasped the pattern.

Whenever she mentions her sister Bronya, another version of her always sounds, as if it were... a summoning spell for another version of herself?

"Ignore her, Seele, Kiana is just having fun there."

Bronya gently comforted her, saying that her Seele was so adorable.

"I thought you were going to say something like, 'Weren't the old fogies trained here?' If you ask me, the problem lies with this academy. The biggest mistake the Honkai Will made was not disbanding this academy sooner."

Those who understood the rules chuckled and offered their corrections.

"So, the ego, the superego... and that saying that you must first pacify the internal before resisting the external, are they considered the seduction of the Honkai will?"

Bronya looked thoughtful and asked calmly.

After the Herrscher of Reason core appeared, her emotional system recovered very well, and she was no longer expressionless.

"Who knows? Maybe it is, maybe it isn't, or maybe it's something these guys came up with."

The Law Master curled his lip and pointed in the direction of the thirteen heroes.

"Don't talk nonsense. You were the one who almost got fooled!" Möbius retorted, ignoring him.

...

“I’ve been running away…procrastinating, but what’s coming will always come. It’s time to sort out my feelings.”

After clearing out the Honkai Beasts, the Herrscher of Knowledge smiled at Fu Hua.

Although I felt a little reluctant to leave along the way, I had to do what needed to be done, after all, she was the Crimson Iris Immortal.

On Mount Taixu, she has collected enough feathers; now, it is time to restore all her power and memories to fight against the Honkai.

"My break is coming to an end. I have to... become Fu Hua."

Fu Hua merely sighed, her eyes filled with helplessness and sorrow, tinged with pity, as she looked at her.

"That's impossible... but it's not what you think."

Fu Hua offered no resistance. The Herrscher of Knowledge reached out her hand, but instead of merging as she had anticipated, the feather gently avoided her.

Like two liquids of opposite polarity, even if they are mixed closely together, they still cannot dissolve.

"Because we are two different souls."

Fu Hua slowly gave her answer, her voice filled with sorrow and pity.

—That look made the Lawbringer of Knowledge even angrier.

"That's not such a stupid reason, is it? The real reason is that you think you're purer than me—you think you're a more worthy Fu Hua than I am."

The Law-Aware One argued loudly, but her reasons were weak and feeble, and perhaps only she herself was willing to believe them.

"You should already know this is true," Fu Hua said softly.

"The truth? The truth is that everyone except you bows down to me the moment they see me! The truth is that you're the only one with a problem in your head, thinking that everything you say is true!"

"...You're too stubborn. You're the one who can't see the facts. You're still living in the past, understand? You still see yourself as Dr. Mei's tool!"

"I understand!" the Lawyer exclaimed angrily. She couldn't tolerate the other party constantly making excuses to say that she wasn't Fu Hua, and she was extremely annoyed.

"Times have changed! We no longer need to pretend to be anyone else; we can be ourselves, our true selves!"

She opened her arms and looked at the other person, hoping for their approval.

[Social Bull VS Controversiality Killer, no wonder even a Herrscher can't sway her]

[Even with such an obvious fact, the Herrscher of Reason still refuses to believe she is a Herrscher. How much does she love the identity of Fu Hua?]

Thinking about it carefully, perhaps the state of being a Herald of Knowledge is what Cangxuan Danzhu has always wanted... Although she is a bit too self-centered, she truly lives only for herself.

Didn't you really guess it back then?

Alicia couldn't help but say that, in her opinion, Fu Hua's words were already direct and clear enough.

With all the facts as evidence, she should have realized it.

Of course, she did not agree with Fu Hua's approach, believing that a roundabout tactic should have been used, as this would only strain the relationship with the other party further.

"You guessed it? Maybe you guessed it, but I have all of her memories, acquaintances, and relationships... If I deny that I am not her, then who am I?"

A bitter smile appeared on the lips of the Lawbringer, a hint of reminiscence in his eyes.

Even though she had consistently criticized Fu Hua's seemingly failed life, it did not diminish her admiration for that spirit of protecting the land of China.

It was precisely because she wanted to become the kind of person that everyone admired and her comrades believed in after she learned about her memories that she immediately believed that she was Fu Hua and Chi Yuan.

"So, whether you guessed it or not, I will always be Fu Hua, because I can't find any other identity. My memories are rejecting my acceptance of the Herrscher, and I myself was unwilling at the time."

She continued, her voice regaining its carefree tone, as if the bitterness she had just felt was merely an illusion.

As always, she moved with a light touch, and seemed somewhat carefree, placing her hand directly on Fu Hua's shoulder.

"See? Old fogey, your life isn't as bad as I said before. Oh, right, what follows is just me being sarcastic, don't take it seriously."

She winked at Fu Hua, who could only nod in confusion, not understanding what she meant.

"You guessed it, but you're unwilling to admit it? The Herrscher of Consciousness... the first thing you do is deceive yourself? How strange~"

Mebius took note of what interested him, believing it to be excellent data for studying the Lawgiver of Humanity.

The way Herrschers in the new era deal with the memories within their bodies seems to be different from the previous civilization, where everything was simply cut off and the Herrscher personality took control of everything.

They can think, they can believe, and their vast memories can even lead a Herrscher to believe that they are the other party.

Wow, this is really an interesting experiment.

"Ah~, I prefer to call it a miracle among girls. Xiao Shi must also want to get to know more of the companions from Fu Hua's memories."

Alicia chuckled, having found an explanation that suited her.

"Ugh... (Do you think everyone is like you?)"

Luo Mo rolled his eyes at him. Being tied up had its advantages; now no one could hear him clearly anyway.

"Oh, Luo Mo said that you, Alicia, only think about applying patches all day long, which is not good for your health."

The translator, Xiaoshipai, seemed to agree with him this time, and surprisingly gave him a precise translation while adding his own embellishments.

"Hey~, you really are something, even tied up you won't behave." Alicia didn't suspect a thing.

Only Luo Mo could say something like that.

Eden would only respond to her petting, and besides, isn't it good for girls to pet each other?

Could it be... you want to see Qianjie and Kevin together? Oh dear~, will things get too complicated between them?

As she spoke, Alicia's nimble fingers gently slapped away Lomo's hand, which was trying to find the cut on the tape.

Luo Mo blinked, feeling a slight pain.

More importantly, he'd been tricked by the Herrscher of Knowledge again. He needed to go back and immediately come up with a video of the Herrscher of Knowledge being brutally stabbed.

However, the main storyline seems to be...?

"That's right, that's right." The Law Master, always eager to stir up trouble, chimed in.

Sticky kisses? If she's old-fashioned, she'll probably decline if the other person takes the initiative.

...

Fragments of memory resurface, like feathers absorbed, rustling faintly.

That was when he was Watson, during a case he solved with the famous Sherlock Holmes.

The great detective noticed a detail that made him find solving cases utterly uninteresting, even tedious. Finally, he couldn't help but ask...

"Watson, I've always wanted to ask... how did you manage to identify the killer so early in the incident?"

It was naturally the power of Yu Duchen, and Watson would never say that, hence his hesitation.

When the case was first accepted, she couldn't help but resort to... because she didn't want the murderer to go unpunished, as that would only indicate that the punishment had not come upon the person who deserved it.

"When you see the killer, your breathing always quickens involuntarily. I thought it was just an illusion—before the two cases."

Holmes looked bitterly at the assistant he had been assigned to handle the case.

Even the best reasoning takes time, but his mysterious assistant from the East clearly overlooked this condition, leaving him somewhat frustrated.

"I'm sorry... Holmes, I'm just... worried about what if we make a mistake..."

"No, no, no, using this ability is perfectly justifiable. Ensuring success is naturally more important than my personal honor. But... could you use it as evidence when the case is almost closed?"

"Believe me, within a few months I will have captured the Moriarty that your bishop wants," Holmes said confidently, exhaling a smoke ring.

...

"Is this the outfit Fu Hua wore when she was investigating cases back then? It fits her surprisingly well~"

Alicia's attention always lingers on strange and unusual things. She praised the well-fitting detective outfit, saying it suited her perfectly.

"Tsk, if Yu Duchen had made a mistake back then, you two might have brought up a few wrongful convictions."

The Herald of Knowledge clicked his tongue and gave Fu Hua his evaluation.

Who said that the old-fashioned woman never uses this ability? She just doesn't want to. But since she's actually using it to solve cases... maybe I could become a little detective myself.

The work itself was easy; first, they identified the criminals, and the deductions were all made up.

Hey, it won't go wrong anyway, right?

"And as it turns out, as a great detective, the other party's reasoning was never wrong, even without using the Feather Dust technique," Fu Hua said slowly, reminiscing about her time in London, though not with Otto's orders.

"Hey, I have an idea. Let's go back to being detectives, I guarantee we'll make a fortune. Right, Watson? What do you think?"

"I know the law," Shi Zhilu said excitedly, praising his own brilliant idea. "Besides, it's quite interesting to solve cases with just the two of us."

"Hey, hey, hey, that's not how you use Feather Dust!"

Velvi was unhappy. Although the Divine Key didn't care what they did, she would also have a headache if they used the Heavenly Fire Greatsword to grill sushi.
