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

She gripped the Herrscher of Flame's greatsword tightly, walking the path illuminated for her by Himeko, carrying Himeko's will forward.

The starlight reflected in Kiana's azure eyes is the power of the Herrscher she wields.

That is Kiana's journey, through all the difficulties and obstacles she has overcome, and through her all-out efforts to carve out her own path—that is her growth.

Kiana suddenly stopped, and looked down slightly. What blocked her path were layers of silk threads.

However, when the firelight shone in the dilapidated and dimly lit hall, the power of the Herrscher of Fire cleared a path for Kiana, burning away all the inconspicuous threads.

Kiana's eyes hardened as she strode forward once more, flames advancing with each step, severing the threads that blocked her path.

Just like in the past, she forges ahead bravely and relentlessly.

The crisp sound of footsteps paused only when Kiana's fluttering cloak came to a stop.

What stood in Kiana's way was neither an enemy nor those threads.

When Kiana stopped in the dilapidated corridor, a tattered, flaming greatsword caught her eye.

Kiana gazed at the dull, lifeless Godfall Sword, the blazing greatsword that once danced in the flames, now crumbling and silent in this hall.

………………

………………

The students of St. Freya Academy were shocked as the dull, broken Godfall Sword came into view, stinging their eyes...

All eyes were focused on Himeko; everyone remembered the scenes that had been shown on the screen earlier—

That burning itself to light the way, sacrificing its broken body to save the student, cutting a piece of blue sky for her in the gloom...

Their teachers

Kiana's benefactor

A fiery rose on the battlefield...

Himeko Murata

Everyone at St. Freya Academy still vividly remembers the scene of Himeko, who coughed up blood just from putting on her crimson combat suit and wielding her greatsword, as she bravely stepped onto the battlefield with her frail body.

Everyone still remembers the scene where he coughed up blood in the mecha but pretended nothing had happened, wiping away the blood and firmly gripping the greatsword.

Himeko Murata, who underwent surgery too late and had extremely poor adaptability to Honkai energy, retired with only a few years left to live...

However, as a teacher at St. Freya Academy, in order to save her student who was caught in the vortex...

To save Kiana Kaslana, Himeko resolutely embarked on a path to defy fate.

Together with Theresa, they invaded Schicksal headquarters, and with their waning bodies... donned the God-Slaying Armor inlaid with the Gem of Plague.

Himeko disregarded the corrosive effects of the Plague Gem on her body, because as a teacher, she had something more important than her own life to save.

When fiery roses blaze across the battlefield, when streaks of fire cleave the Queen of the Sky's spear...

When that broken body entered the Queen's domain

Standing before the Sky Queen Sirin was none other than Himeko Murata, a mere insignificant human.

And when that fiery rose of the battlefield finally withered, she passed on the last glimmer of hope in her life to her successors, to her students—

When the blazing greatsword cut through all obstacles and reached Queen Sirin, what pierced her body was not the greatsword that charged forward in Himeko's hand, but the only antidote that could save Himeko's life.

The God-Slaying Spear

A serum powerful enough to neutralize Herrscher-level Honkai energy was injected into Kiana's body, along with the very essence Himeko had entrusted to Kiana, even at the cost of her own life.

Will of Fire

As a teacher, the last and most important thing I can do for my students is to pass on my attitude towards life and the world...

Passing on that flame called hope, that undying fire.

Himeko, with her broken and battered body, ignited the flame of tomorrow for Kiana Kaslana.

In the end, Kiana, carrying Himeko's hopes, overcame the Queen of the Sky's inner demons...

Donning the cloak of blazing fire, she became the Herrscher of Blazing Fire.

……

Everyone at St. Freya Academy looked on with concern, their gazes fixed on both Himeko and Kiana.

Because everyone knows that Kiana was the person involved...

Her burden was the heaviest.

Kiana, standing beside them, saw the somber Godslayer Sword in the light screen, a symbol of Himeko's death, and her azure eyes trembled violently.

Because a Herrscher was hidden inside her body, that led to Himeko's death...

Because of her incompetence, Sirin controlled her body, ultimately causing Himeko's death...

Although Himeko didn't have much time left to live, she could at least have enjoyed her later years peacefully by resting in the background...

Even if Himeko were corrupted by the power of the Plague Gem, she would have been able to use the power of the [Godslayer Spear] to clear away the side effects of Honkai energy.

However, it was all because of her that Himeko ultimately...

However, Himeko, as the person involved, as a teacher and elder, could not possibly think that way.

"Snapped"

With a crisp sound, Himeko patted Kiana's shoulder, calming the trembling, heartbroken, and wavering fool down.

"Aunt Jizi..."

Himeko looked at the Dark Godfall Sword in the light screen, which symbolized her death, but she wasn't particularly sad.

There was no sadness or blame on her face at that moment.

Himeko knew that Kiana was just a pitiful child, a pathetic creature who had to bear the nightmare of being a Herrscher at such a young age.

And she knew even more...

The Kiana before me is a child strong enough to ignite a radiant light.

With Himeko's firm and trusting gaze, Kiana, who was on the verge of collapse due to self-blame, slowly calmed down.

Then, Himeko's voice rang out from the light screen.

………………

………………

"no need to worry……"

Kiana is no longer a child lost in the darkness.

"She has grown up; she possesses the power to cleave through the sky."

She will transform this power into the fuel that ignites tomorrow.

"To shape the world into the way we desire it"

Himeko's voice suddenly rang out from the light screen, just like the thoughts of Himeko herself at St. Freya Academy at that moment.

Through the light screen, they witnessed Kiana's growth, how she transformed from a child into a warrior wielding the power of the Herrscher to fight against the Honkai, with Himeko as her teacher...

As Kiana's elder, she believed that this young girl possessed her own strength and growth.

Just as Himeko had hoped, and just as her murmurs had suggested.

Within the light screen, Kiana's azure eyes trembled slightly...

But what followed was an indestructible fortitude, reborn and transformed after enduring the flames.

Kiana's delicate white eyebrows furrowed slightly, and after a flash of sadness and remembrance in her eyes, she took a deep breath...

Kiana's heaving chest revealed her inner turmoil, but having weathered the storms and setbacks, she understood that she couldn't afford to grieve now.

Sadness and tears should be reserved for after everything is over, and only after we have done justice to our teacher's sacrifice can they be offered as a tribute.

The kitten's slightly wrinkled face was certainly cute, but behind that innocence lay an even firmer determination.

Kiana held tightly the warmth that Himeko had given her, a warmth she was bound to carry forward with the inherited hope and will!

To live up to her mentor's expectations and to be worthy of Himeko's sacrifice, Kiana must persevere.

All we saw was Kiana raising her hand, and the power of the Herrscher of Fire erupted!

The Greatsword of Fireburning in Kiana's hand, its blooming flames are just like the crimson roses that danced on the battlefield, just like the flames that broke into the imaginary space and brought her back!

"Qiang!"

With a resounding crash, the greatsword fell to the ground, and the blazing flames illuminated the dim hall. Kiana's greatsword, which ignited the hope of tomorrow, suddenly shone brightly!

Kiana's greatsword clashed with the dim Godslayer Sword, and the three gems inlaid on the greatsword lit up at the same time. The flames of the Plague Gem seemed to ignite the Godslayer Sword beside her as well!

In that blazing fire, even the once-silent and dilapidated Divine Fall Sword seemed to be repaired and rekindled in the dazzling flames, as if its original sharpness and indomitable spirit had been rekindled!

The Godfall Sword belonging to Teacher Himeko and the weapon belonging to the Herrscher of Flame shine together at this moment!

Kiana's departing figure was resolute and determined, leaving only her flowing ponytail and fiery cloak.

"You are now a flame that can illuminate others."

"Those seemingly unbearable past events..."

Teacher Himeko seemed to see Kiana's spirited and determined steps, murmuring her satisfaction.

Then, Bronya picked up where Himeko left off, praising Kiana's journey.

"It will only become your strength."

Although Kiana's figure has gone far away, and the fiery rose on the battlefield can no longer be seen, the greatswords of the master and apprentice reflect each other, as if we can see this master and apprentice who inherit the will fighting side by side!

As Kiana departed, she pushed open the gates of history and entered an even more dilapidated hall.

It seems to bear witness to the weight of the past, as if major turning points in history are depicted here in the form of stone carvings.
