Scrolling through short videos and seeing embarrassing moments, has even the Mi Home ecosystem broke

She personally touched the power she didn't want to revisit, the power that made her see herself as a "monster," all in order to protect everyone's peace and her loved ones...

All for... to fulfill the will that Himeko passed on to her, to ignite the flame.

In everyone's hearts, that purple meteor streaking backwards into the sky has become an unforgettable and awe-inspiring spectacle.

Because it was not just a magnificent spectacle, but a miraculous scene of an unfortunate young girl bravely challenging fate, upholding her duty to protect others, and fulfilling her mentor's expectations.

Theresa, as the headmistress of St. Freya Academy and Kiana's aunt, felt a mixture of tenderness and relief as she tiptoed and gently rubbed the silly girl's head.

You're such an idiot.

However, she also had to give Kiana a thumbs up.

Himeko couldn't help but smile with satisfaction as she witnessed Kiana, who was originally just a mischievous and silly little cat who would cause trouble, transform into such a responsible and courageous person.

In this way, it won't have been in vain that she went to such lengths to save this idiot.

As a teacher, the most gratifying thing is to see my students grow, to see them keep my teachings in mind and put them into practice at all times.

Himeko was gratified that she was able to witness this scene while she was still alive.

Otherwise, it would be a great pity if we didn't see Kiana grow up after her death.

So Himeko patted Kiana's head, feeling incredibly proud of the little one's actions.

Compared to the relief felt by Himeko and Theresa, the two elders, Mei and Bronya, as Kiana's companions, had different thoughts.

Although they were also moved by Kiana's sacrifice and dedication, and happy to see Kiana's growth, however...

What lies behind that growth?

Chapter 111 (5k) Baby Teeth Scene?

Those familiar with Kiana, this idiot, know how heavy a burden it is to suddenly have to bear the power of a Herrscher and face a terrifying force capable of destroying a city.

They all witnessed how much Kiana had changed in the light screen.

Kiana who wielded the power of the Herrscher of the Void while maintaining her own consciousness; Kiana whose face was distorted by Honkai energy; Kiana who fell from the sky with her wings shattered.

What kind of excruciating pain did she endure?

Mei and Bronya hugged the idiot tightly, feeling especially distressed.

Because they could only watch helplessly as Kiana rushed into the sea of ​​fire, just like Mei, who was alone on the rooftop in the scene.

Their dearest friends, who once trained alongside them in Changkong City and after entering St. Freya Academy, have drifted away like shooting stars in the sky, leaving them alone in the same place.

They were left helplessly watching the girl who had become a shooting star, brilliant yet fleeting.

Mei held Kiana tightly, as if afraid that if she let go, the girl in front of her would leave her and disappear.

Bronya was in even more pain than Mei.

Mei was still able to stand beside Kiana, but where was Bronya at that time?

Bronya bit her lip, her little face showing resentment.

Does that mean she doesn't even qualify to go to Sky City?

So far, the light screen has not shown any scene of her becoming a Herrscher, nor has it explained how she obtained the Herrscher Core, nor has it shown any of her achievements after becoming a Herrscher.

The only time it appeared on the light screen was when it was with Kiana in the theater of the Herrscher of Reason... As a tool to provoke Kiana, its greatest role was to contribute the core of the Herrscher of Reason.

If we absolutely have to include the teenage version of Bronya who wasn't actually her...

What can that hot dance girl do for Kiana?

……

As for Fu Hua, she felt equally gratified to see Kiana transform into such a responsible warrior.

But more than anything, she was reminiscing about the past.

She had witnessed countless soldiers who, in order to fight, were forced to abandon their ordinary and happy lives and throw themselves into the cruel and merciless battlefield.

Like moths to a flame, just like the name of their organization—

Moths that chase fire

Compared to Kiana, who is "unfortunate" yet also "lucky" to be able to control the power of the Herrscher, the warriors that Fu Hua had seen were far more tragic.

They lack the powers of Herrschers, and many even lack combat strength. They are forced to go to the battlefield to protect their loved ones, and they have to die whether they like it or not.

Not only did they lack the assistance of Herrschers, they also had to confront the destructive power of the Herrschers.

Whether it's from the time the previous civilization was destroyed by the Honkai, or the warriors Fu Hua has seen in this civilization, Kiana seems much "luckier" compared to them.

Although for Kiana herself, this was a tragic misfortune...

Fu Hua saw the image of "Himeko" flash before her eyes, but upon closer reflection, she realized it wasn't the Himeko beside her.

That was Himiko, who was like Himeko, who had guided Kiana to become a warrior, and who was also a mentor to Kiana...

They seem to have similar names, and their appearances are also... pretty much the same?

Fu Hua couldn't remember Himiko's appearance, but the fire that raged in the city on the day Himiko was chosen to become a Herrscher still burned in Fu Hua's heart.

"Go for it, Kiana..."

"To protect the beauty of the world"

Fu Hua silently offered her best wishes to Kiana.

Inside the World Serpent, Kevin and his subordinates Jackal, Raven, Night Owl, and many, many Gray Serpents were all intently watching the light screen.

Kevin frowned slightly, reviewing the scene that had just been displayed on the screen.

Kiana's acquisition of the Herrscher of the Void's powers with Fu Hua's help left Kevin with mixed feelings.

He was gratified to see the Kaslana family possess such a tenacious spirit, will, and courage to fight against the Honkai, and delighted to see Kiana dedicate everything to the cause like a moth drawn to a flame.

However, unlike his former organization, the Moth of Fire, Kiana possesses enough power to successfully send a Honkai energy bomb that threatened the lives of all the people in the city into the sky.

Kiana's mastery of the Herrscher of the Void's powers is evident in the scene.

This means he can send Kiana to the Golden Garden, take her to the Paradise of the Dead, and let Alicia there see that humans can indeed find themselves after becoming Herrschers.

However, at the same time, Kiana's actions in the light screen made Kevin feel troubled.

Because others might not know what the Honkai energy bomb in that light screen is, others might not know what conspiracy is brewing in Sky City, and why so many Honkai Beasts that weren't attracted by the Herrscher are active in Sky City.

But Kevin, the head of World Serpent, was fully aware of the plan.

The plan brewing in that Sky City was a possibility he had been conceiving as the leader of the World Serpent for a very long time.

To test the feasibility of this plan, Kevin instructed World Serpent's subordinates to secretly prepare and conduct a small-scale experiment in Sky City once everything was ready...

The price was the lives of everyone in Sky Dome City.

The experiments in Sky City are a microcosm of Kevin's research into the plan to combat the Honkai.

Project Stigmata

The goal is to send humans in the city into the Stigmata Space and then send the Stigmata out into the real world to fight against the Honkai.

The will and thoughts of all humanity are guided into the [Stigmata Space], and then the [Stigmata Will] is left in the world as a shadow of humanity, constructing a perfect utopian world made of "imaginary numbers".

Since the "Will of the Holy Mark" can perfectly inherit everything about human civilization and will not be subject to birth, aging, sickness and death, "civilization" will naturally no longer suffer from "collapse".

Humans, who already existed in the world, entered a world similar to "Infinite Tsukuyomi," where they experienced spiritual life, aging, sickness, and death, and could also reproduce and develop.

In this way, humans inside the Stigmata Space will no longer have to fear the appearance and erosion of Honkai, and Stigmata that come to the real world will also be completely unafraid of Honkai erosion, and can fight against Honkai with their powerful strength.

With this, humanity has defeated the "Honkai".

This is certainly a "man-made Shangri-La" project, but the collapse is ultimately cruel and merciless.

Even this seemingly perfect "Peach Blossom Spring Project" still has its shortcomings, namely...

All humanity will henceforth abandon their physical bodies, becoming only spirits within the space of the Holy Mark.

The seemingly perfect utopian world actually hides countless variables, which no one can know.

Whether the Stigmata Space is stable, and whether the Stigmata Project will be effective in the face of the end, are all still unknown.

But the unknown doesn't mean we can't try. In order for all of humanity to pass the test of the End Cocoon, Kevin had no choice but to do so.

He had witnessed the extinction of countless humans 50,000 years ago, and even the entire human race was wiped out in the face of the end.

In order to protect humanity this time, he had to harden his heart, even if it meant using the entire population of Sky City as test subjects.

Kevin never expected that before the plan could be implemented, it would be a descendant of his Kaslana family, a peculiar person who had mastered the power of a Herrscher, who would stop him.

"What am I supposed to do?"

Kevin frowned as he looked at the guy who was extremely similar to him in some ways, and who even looked exactly like the people close to him.

Inside the reverse entropy on the other side, Tesla and Einstein saw Kiana raising a Honkai energy bomb into the sky in the light screen, and silently clenched their fists.

They were all worried for Kiana, who was shouldering everything alone. The scene before them reminded them of a former companion.

Edison.

That respectable companion, like them, once served Destiny, researching countermeasures against the Honkai in the Imperial Laboratory.

However, on the very day that Edison's groundbreaking research was about to succeed, a major event caused Edison to leave them forever.

Just like what was shown on the light screen, the entire city faced the threat of Honkai energy bombs.

Edison's actions were exactly the same as Kiana's in the light screen; he carried the bomb into the sky alone...

Tesla bit his lip tightly, his eyes already reddening.

She would always remember that day, far from the city, on the sea, where she and Edison sang their final rendition of "Scarborough Fair" over the intermittent radio.
