Honkai Impact 3rd, a simulator of lifelong regret!

If someone harbors malicious intent, as long as they can overcome a small amount of lightning and withstand an excessive concentration of Honkai energy that would suffocate even a professional Valkyrie, even a useless piece of trash could probably harm the girl at this moment.

……

Do not……

impossible……

Such a thing is simply impossible. Even if this cycle continues indefinitely, it will never end up like that.

The answer is nothing special; it's not that the residual majesty of lightning after it falls from the sky still instills fear in mortals, preventing them from moving forward.

—Because someone is here.

—Because someone is watching over this place forever.

The cautiously extended fingertips were the boy's tentative touch; his reluctance to make direct contact stemmed from countless experiences he had gone through in his memory.

The man named Jiangcheng remained here, not even attempting to sneak in. He stood exactly where he was, bending down, constantly projecting his strong presence outwards.

"If you need a fight to make you realize the current situation, then I'm willing to put in more effort. Although I don't like fighting and would rather just sit back and do nothing like a salted fish, in terms of strength, I'm probably still at a barely passable level."

"When people are dissatisfied, they do need some way to vent their emotions. You have been suppressing your feelings since yesterday, so you must have accumulated a lot of emotions. Clearing out those small fry is not a way to relieve stress."

"And in my opinion, you let them die too quickly. Most of them turned to ashes in an instant, without even having a chance to realize their mistakes."

"If it were up to me, I would definitely give them a taste of their own medicine and make them beg for my life. I would make them beg for my life."

"They're not begging for my life, they're begging me to let them die in peace, to grovel on the ground and plead with me to give them a quick death."

……

……

Raiden Mei instinctively wanted to reach out and grab the boy's hand or leg, but her outstretched hand paused slightly and then fell back down.

It was I... who... betrayed... Jiangcheng... first...

They're no longer eligible.

I have no right to stay by the boy's side any longer.

He was clearly working hard for my sake, clearly trying to solve the problems my father was facing, but the mastermind behind it all was...

But I...I...

Ah……

It's ridiculous! She damaged the phone without permission and went to the boy's room without his permission. No one invited her and the boy didn't even give her his address. She did such a shameless thing and still has the nerve to be dissatisfied and disgusted by the gift.

It's normal for someone like me to get kicked out, right?

I deserve to be hurt badly; I'm a useless piece of trash who will never learn from my mistakes.

They fear even the light, dare not reach out to help others, and are met with filthy thoughts when their well-intentioned help is met with their own dark and toxic perspectives.

There's no such thing as a gift that has to be opened immediately; everyone has a completely different concept of what a gift should be. Some people just like to choose an auspicious day, bathe and dress up, and open the gift with the best sense of ceremony.

Is there anything wrong with the act of accepting a gift from someone who is essentially giving it to you in the best possible state of mind?

--No.

Even if there are a thousand crimes in this world, there is absolutely no crime that makes you the best version of yourself to accept someone's heart.

Even if there are ten thousand crimes in this world, there is absolutely no crime that is about not telling the truth to those who do not deserve to know.

The saying "ignorance is no excuse" is merely a consolation; after making a rash mistake, everyone must bear the consequences.

……

……

There was no need for any extra thought, no need for any careful observation; with just one glance, the memory that was already ingrained in Jiang Cheng's bones was enough to tell him that things had taken a completely new turn.

Just like countless times before, Raiden Mei once again... once again experienced self-pity.

That all-too-familiar expression—biting her delicate lips slightly, blinking hard, her beautiful eyes veiling with a misty haze…

Either the girl is now dissatisfied with her own incompetence, or she feels unworthy of her own forgiveness; more likely, it's a combination of both, and perhaps an additional factor: the pursuit of responsibility for the mistakes made.

Isn't this irrelevant?

Is this all meaningless?

It's pointless to delve into whose fault it was.

It was a mistake and a problem that both parties had made, so it's best to just blur it out and seal it off, without ever looking at it again.

Some things can be ignored with your eyes closed, but if you insist on looking at them, trouble will ensue. If you look too closely, trouble may even come directly to you.

Now that things have calmed down, everything will be alright. Raiden Mei made no mistakes, and neither did I. The Raiden Queen has already resolved all the issues.

"Isn't it enough to just live a stable life?"

Why must there be an answer?

"Why not just live a normal, uneventful life like this, and deal with whatever problems arise?"

"Isn't this your greatest wish, Mei? To let your happy and peaceful life continue indefinitely, without anything unexpected happening? If that's the case, then why are you actively looking for trouble now?"

……

Jiang Cheng knelt on one knee, extended his right hand, and carefully and gently touched the girl's skin to ensure that it would not cause any stress reaction.

Preparing to pull the girl, who had been sprawled on the cold floor for a long time, up, his cautious actions almost required Herrscher-level reflexes.

With each gentle pull, and despite Raiden Mei's lack of response and continued reclusive behavior, her body was finally lifted slightly, and her purple school uniform skirt gently lifted off the ground.

The fabric, almost too thin and resembling summer clothing, accentuated her full buttocks, which had just been compressed by her weight into something resembling a meat pie.

The elastic part returned to its original shape in an instant, and the striped plaid skirt was pinched in a slight dent at the back.

Perhaps because of the dislike she received, she hadn't changed to a larger style suitable for her current age for a long time. The tight fabric even constricted her short skirt, which should have flowed, making her hips feel like they were bound by leggings.

My little finger, which I stubbornly refused to retract, was already completely charred.

Or rather, it has already turned into carbon.

It still retains the shape of a long finger, only because of its strong physique that the bone did not crumble immediately.

It can even be almost without feeling, as if it has lost its sensation, with only the severed nerve endings stubbornly transmitting dangerous signals.

Jiang Cheng subconsciously frowned, and even the corner of his mouth twitched from the pain. Even the recovery ability of a Herrscher-level body could not restore him immediately.

"The power of the Honkai Will, Mei... you still can't fully control your body after all?"

……

The power of a Herrscher is indeed not something that can be easily controlled. If one's will is not up to par, it is normal for their body to be taken over and lose control.

Mei, in the main storyline, only gained control of her power and accepted herself after the Heavenly Meteor, thus enacting a lament for a sinner.

We haven't even reached the St. Freya stage from the very beginning of the story yet; at least by then, the girl had already been living with her powers for three years.

Without embracing and accepting the collapse, one naturally wouldn't receive the same treatment as Sirin, who provided full transportation and even taught how to use her power.

I should have stayed up last night and just dragged myself back home.

"It has dragged on for too long, so the effects of the collapse have taken too deep root. If we want to find a way to expel it, we need to forcefully shatter its will."

"Facing a real Honkai God is indeed a bit troublesome... No matter how poorly it performs, it is indeed from the will of Honkai."

……

Listening to the boy's evaluation, the girl's gaze fell upon his brows, which had never drooped even when he was engaged in battle with her in his memory. His dark pupils swirled turbidly, like a starry sky suddenly obscured by clouds, or a deep sea with tiny tornadoes churning within.

what……

Is it beyond repair?

really……

Having done so many wrong things, I don't deserve to live anymore.

So many people, so many whose names we can remember and so many whose names we can't remember, have died.

—Because of me.

……

The girl subconsciously began to act recklessly again, perhaps because the sadness from last night had not dissipated even a little.

If this self-blame is allowed to continue and spread, the body that has just been pulled up a little will probably fall suddenly again due to the increased weight.

"You don't need to worry or be afraid." The boy simply shook his head slightly, tilted his head, and smiled gently, using his confidence to soothe the clear sense of loss. "I will definitely win the final battle. I have quite a lot of experience fighting the Herrscher."

"The reason why things turned out this way is, in a sense, also my problem. It was precisely because of distrust that I felt uneasy."

“If I had told you everything from the beginning, if I had kept the truth to myself, then this problem wouldn’t have happened.”

Ultimately, there's nothing to hide. It's nothing more than the simplest political struggle, plus some human experiments that have happened countless times in this world, and people deliberately choosing to die.

This isn't the first time even the creator Herrscher has done this; there have even been cases of people desperately protecting the opposing Herrscher, attacking the heroes who protect the world, and going so far as to protect the enemy.

There's nothing to hide about what happened to Raiden Mei; these secrets are easily known.

……

What kind of super invincible god? .jpg

234. Aren't you very cute?

The girl is unaware of this simply because Raiden Ryoma has kept it all very secret. He has never told her about the Honkai, the Herrscher, or anything that happened to her, not even the true nature of ME Corporation, a family business.

Regardless of the reason, this behavior is irresponsible. Completely confining the flowers in a greenhouse will only cause them to suddenly die due to the harsh external environment when the greenhouse breaks down one day.
