Honkai Impact 3rd, I started as Spain's daughter?

The reason why Alicia is so lenient with Kiana and Raiden Mei is because she has already reached an agreement with Otto, who is the most difficult to deal with, that Schicksal will not have any intention of taking over the core of the Herrscher.

Of course, in return, Otto will also use K423 and some of their powers to do certain things.

This situation couldn't be more suitable for them both.

Just when everyone thought the Herrscher core would be easily obtained and had even begun planning the next steps, unexpected events always happen.

As a colossal metropolis, the prosperity and technological sophistication of Tianqiong City are unimaginable. Although most of the world's advanced technologies are discovered through archaeology, China still far surpasses many other regions in terms of infrastructure.

Although this strange tour guide was very enthusiastic, anyone with sense would know that Raiden Mei and the others were definitely not ordinary, so they were naturally on guard.

Kiana, on the other hand, would occasionally stare blankly at Shiana's back.

She always seemed to see Xiaoqi's shadow in Xiana, but it would vanish in an instant, replaced by her own shadow.

Lately, she has found it difficult to appreciate, enjoy, and possess this free time with the innocence and naivety of a young girl.

Her sense of responsibility and guilt gripped her tightly, casting a persistent shadow over Kiana's heart from beginning to end.

"Here, candied hawthorn berries. They're very sweet, don't look so gloomy. Since you're here on vacation, enjoy yourself..."

Xia Na took four candied hawthorns from the vendor and handed them to them.

Although the Herrscher of the Void was very unwilling, she still had no choice but to follow along.

The Herrscher of the Void merely glanced at the candied hawthorn that Shiana offered her.

Who would like such a silly human snack?

It's just sugar that's been poured over hawthorn berries after they've caramelized, why call it candied hawthorn berries...?

Although the Herrscher of the Void doesn't seem very intelligent, and in fact she is, she has seen and learned a great deal.

"Hmm...the taste...it seems alright?"

After reluctantly accepting it, the Herrscher of the Void intended to throw it directly into the trash can, but faced with Siana's gaze, she hesitated for a moment and reluctantly took a bite.

"very sour."

Kiana only tasted one before she couldn't help but purse her lips.

Although she said that, her expression showed no sign of sourness.

If it were the old her, she would definitely like it now, but now, for some reason, even though it's a sweet thing, it makes her feel a little sour or even bitter.

"Hmm, Miss Kiana, it's not sour at all..."

Siana tiptoed, her blue-pink eyes looking at her, and her slender fingers gently touched her lips.

Let's just pretend it was all a dream, a dream of prosperity and splendor, but a dream...

"...She'll wake up sooner or later anyway."

At some point, Xia Na led them to the top of the tallest commercial building in Sky City, where they could overlook the entire city.

The once bustling and vibrant city now seemed to be shrouded in a dim light, and a slight chill gradually spread from the fingertips to the whole body.

"It's snowing... How is that possible?"

Raiden Mei looked up at the sky, where pure white snowflakes were falling from above the giant city.

"You are...a Herrscher?!"

At this moment, a series of strange occurrences made Raiden Mei look at the girl warily, while Kiana, who was being gently touched by Shiana, did not make any move.

Kiana felt warmth and an unprecedented closeness from Shiana's fingers at that moment.

Sorry...

Siana tilted her head cutely.

"This is probably the first and last time we'll see each other this closely..."

Kiana had no intention of hiding; she wanted to confront Kiana and the people behind her head-on.

A fiery red flame spread from her palm, and the Flame King Sword appeared in her hand.

"Guess what's going on in this city right now...?"

"...How many Herrschers are there?"

Chapter 127: Shiana: Leave here, or you will all die!

Although Siana's expression turned serious for a moment, she immediately blinked cutely.

"Well then, see you later..."

Holding the Blazing King Sword, she took a half step back and fell freely with her back to the ground.

"She...wait..."

Mei and Kiana exchanged a glance. Everyone present was a Herrscher, so they could naturally sense the familiarity of the greatsword in Kiana's hand.

"It's the power of the Herrscher..."

"Kiana, let me contact Alicia..."

Mei gently shook her head, dialed Alicia's contact, and looked up at the falling snow above.

It's the height of summer now, how could it suddenly turn so cold, and even snow...?

Clearly, something has happened elsewhere, and the Herrscher of Ice may have even descended upon the area.

But if that's the case, then what about Shiana?

Is she also a Herrscher, or even the Herrscher of Flame?

Wait a minute, Raiden Mei remembers Alicia telling her that the Herrscher of Flame's gem is still at Schicksal headquarters and hasn't been touched...

"Hi, Mei, what made you think of contacting me...?"

Raiden Mei described the situation to Alicia, and after listening to her, Alicia hesitated for a moment.

"A girl possessing different Herrscher powers..."

The pink fairy, still at the World Serpent Base, thought of a possibility.

The core of the Herrschers should all be in their Herrscher of Control, and Kiana is the only one who has two cores.

The reason why the aura of the sword in Shiana's hand was so familiar was because it contained their own Herrscher power.

"Xiaoqi, is this your interference?"

Back then, Alicia and Xiaoqi had exchanged glances many times. She liked the child very much and knew that although the child was still a young girl, she was very thoughtful. Xiaoqi was also involved in handling the relationship between Kiana and Raiden Mei.

Alicia trusted Xiaoqi completely, but in return, considering how long she had been gone and her conversation with Kevin, Xiaoqi knew perfectly well why she had left...

If World Serpent, Anti-Entropy, and Destiny were to truly unite to train Kiana, they might actually be able to accomplish it with their combined power.

Xiaoqi couldn't possibly be unaware of this, and the girl with different Herrscher powers was very likely created by her.

Even though she has returned to the embrace of the cocoon, as a final larva, she still has the ability to do this.

"My dear Mei, just go with the flow, I'll be there soon..."

The pink fairy pursed her lips, her beautiful brows furrowing slightly.

If Xiaoqi really intends to stop it, then things will become extremely troublesome.

According to the plan, they need to gather at least ten core powers. Although they have already completed more than half of it, Alicia has a feeling that things will not go so smoothly.

"The Herrscher of Ice needs to be dealt with immediately..."

Kiana and Raiden Mei would normally have had a strong enough hand to deal with the Herrscher of Ice, but now Alicia has to hurry, or rather, stop the girl named "Shiana" before she seizes the Herrscher's power.

If she really was sent by Kiana, then Mei and Kiana, who have undergone a metamorphosis, are very likely no match for her.

"Xiana..."

"Some of those are rather strange names..."

......

Natural life

"Have you found the cause?"

Otto looked at the data report in front of him with a meaningful expression, his eyes gleaming.

"We've found it. The core area of ​​the extreme weather in Sky Dome City is where one of our Schicksal Valkyrie squads lost contact. The last recorded sighting nearby was..."

"...Anna Schariac."

"Hmm, is she our Chosen Valkyrie?"

Otto's expression was not surprised, or rather, it was all within his expectations.

The transfer of the Valkyrie squad to Sky City was a result of his collaboration with World Serpent; from the beginning, they knew that a large-scale collapse would occur in Sky City.

The possibility of a Herrscher being born from among them is not low, or rather, they intentionally guide the birth of a Herrscher.

Otto viewed these Valkyrie squads as both a safeguard and one of the core components of his plan.

His plan was mostly complete. All that remained was to wait for the right Herrscher to be born, to settle everything with Schicksal, and then Otto could go and carry out his plan.

To Otto, everything he was doing was dispensable, or rather, creating the End was not something he needed to be involved in; he was merely using it as part of this astonishing plan.

If Xiaoqi hadn't left, then Otto's best partner would actually have been her.

The risks of cooperating with World Serpent are not low. Although their promises to Otto seem good, they are all idealistic plans. Otto prefers something more practical.

If conditions permit, Otto would not mind terminating his cooperation with World Serpent.

......

Sky City

"The Herrscher of Ice, Anna Schariac..."

Siana moved nimbly between the floors of Sky City and quickly located the core area of ​​the Honkai energy eruption.

The Flame King Sword in her hand would occasionally shimmer with different colored light.

Just as Alicia and the others guessed, Shiana could use the King's Sword to draw upon the power of all the Herrschers who had already ascended to immortality. Although the amount was not much, it was enough.
