Collapse Iron: Cosplaying the Near-Death Star, but with a full destiny.

Hoshino sighed in admiration.

Then, she suddenly exerted force with her five fingers.

The power of "reproduction" strengthened the body's resilience, while the power of "end" reversed the erosion of the sword energy.

Click.

The icy epiphyllum flower shattered in her hand, turning into countless shimmering powders.

"Um?"

The mirror below emitted a slightly surprised nasal sound.

She clearly hadn't expected this.

Someone actually managed to catch her full-force attack with their bare hands.

and……

Unharmed.

She swayed and landed back on the ground.

His longsword pointed diagonally at the ground, and his amber eyes narrowed slightly as he locked onto the two people who were slowly descending.

"What kind of monster is this?"

Her voice was cold and devoid of any warmth.

"Bearing an aura of abundance, yet able to withstand my sword strike."

"A new envoy suddenly appearing under your command?"

"You big idiot!"

As soon as the planet landed, she rolled her eyes in annoyance.

She shook the ice shards off her hands and took two steps forward.

"Master Jingliu, look more clearly."

"Do we look like monsters?"

"We're here to help!"

To prove her innocence, Hoshi deliberately suppressed the active Abundance Power within her.

Instead, it released a chilling aura belonging to the "hunting".

I could feel that familiar aura.

The killing intent in Jingliu's eyes subsided slightly.

But only a few.

She remained in a vigilant posture, the tip of her sword never lowering even slightly.

"Hunting...?"

She scrutinized the star.

"Its aura is mixed and indistinct, neither human nor ghost."

"Who exactly are you?"

Who I am is not important.

Mohoshi did not dwell on this issue.

The battlefield is ever-changing, and hundreds or thousands of people could die every second.

She doesn't have time to check household registrations with Jing Liu here.

"The important thing is that we're here to save lives."

Shihoshi stared directly into Kagami's eyes.

He speaks extremely fast.

"Where is Bai Heng?"

"Where is that fox-woman pilot, your best friend?"

Upon hearing the name "Bai Heng".

A slight ripple finally appeared on Jingliu's face, which had been like an iceberg for millennia.

The sword in her hand drooped slightly.

"You...know Bai Heng?"

"Is he her friend?"

I guess so.

Hoshi nodded.

"Where is she? It's too chaotic here; we need to make sure she's safe."

Jingliu glanced at the battlefield around him, where fierce fighting was taking place.

He then looked at the two strangers in front of him, whose strength was unfathomable and whose auras were strange, but who were indeed helping the Cloud Cavalry clean up the evil things.

She remained silent for a moment.

A judgment was made.

"She's not here."

Jingliu spoke up.

Although his tone remained calm, one could detect a very subtle hint...

Peace of mind.

"The frontal battlefield is too dangerous."

"I sent her to the rear to be in charge of transferring supplies and providing flank cover."

Jingliu turned around, swung his sword, and cut a monster that was trying to sneak up in two.

"She's a aviator; the sky is her domain, but the sky here..."

She looked up at the sky, which was obscured by the black sun and occupied by countless flying monsters.

"It has been contaminated."

"That's why I didn't let her come."

"She's behind you. She's safe."

After saying this...

Jingliu's lips curled up in an extremely subtle way.

He seemed to be glad he made that decision.

In this meat grinder-like battlefield, as long as Bai Heng isn't here, as long as she's still in that relatively safe rear...

So, no matter how many people die here, no matter how badly she herself is injured.

It doesn't matter.

"Safety……"

Hoshi repeated the word.

Her heart sank.

Jingliu doesn't know.

She thought her plan was perfect.

She thought that the fox-girl who was always smiling and always said she wanted to fight alongside her would obediently stay in the back.

but.

The truth of history is cruel.

Bai Heng has never been the type to hide behind his friends.

She is one of the Five Heroes of the Clouds.

He is the hero who dared to face the dark sun.

"Master..."

Hoshi tugged at Hoshi's sleeve.

The voice sounded somewhat hurried.

"Look at the sky."

Hoshi suddenly looked up.

Look in the direction Xing is pointing.

High in the sky, shrouded in smoke and blood.

On the edge of that black sun that devours all light.

There was an extremely inconspicuous starship painted white.

Just like a moth drawn to a flame.

Without hesitation.

Against all the enemy forces.

It rushed towards that darkest, most desperate abyss.

The starship flew erratically.

It has clearly been severely damaged.

The wings were burning, and a long trail of black smoke was trailing behind.

But its speed did not slow down at all.

instead……

faster and faster.

"Damn it!"

Mihoshi gritted his teeth and cursed.

She turned to look at Jingliu.

His eyes were extremely complex.

"Do you think she's safe?"

Do you think she'll listen to you?

"Kyoryu, you underestimate her."

"She just doesn't understand her at all."

Jingliu was stunned.

She followed Hoshino's gaze.

That instant.

Her amber eyes.

It began to tremble violently.

She recognized the starship.

That was Bai Heng's favorite ship.

There are also cartoon-style doodles of the two of them drawn on it.

That is……

She personally inspected Bai Heng's vehicle before he went to war.

"No……"

Jingliu's voice changed.

That calmness, that composure, that dignity as the swordsman, all crumbled completely at that moment.

Instead.

It was a panic that had never been felt before and that had penetrated to the bone.

"Bai Heng!!!"

She let out a piercing scream.

With a single movement, it was about to soar into the sky.

"It's too late!"

Shihoshi grabbed Kagami's shoulder.

They forcefully pushed her back to the ground.

"You can't catch up!"

"At that altitude, at that speed, you have to fly faster than her!"

"Let go!"

Jingliu's eyes turned red.

The ice sword in his hand unleashed a chilling aura powerful enough to freeze the soul, attempting to force back the Star.

"I have to go save her!"

"Let me go!!!"

"Wow!"

Hoshi roared.

It overwhelmed the roar of the Mirror Stream.

If Jingliu goes, not only will he fail to bring back Baiheng, but even more Cloud Cavalry might die on the main battlefield.

The destiny power of "order" made Jingliu unconsciously obey the words of Shihoshi.

"Believe me!"

"I will definitely bring her back!"

"Complete!"

Done.

She gave Jingliu no chance to react.

Turn around.

He grabbed Xing's hand.

The "end" power within his body was pushed to its limit.

The air behind them was distorted.

A pair of tattered yet sacred wings made of light suddenly unfolded.

"star!"

"Are you ready?!"

"Always be prepared!"

㳉星：?

It reminds me of military training.

Xing gripped the Flame Spear tightly.

A blazing flame erupted from the tip of the spear.

"Then..."

"Rush!!!"

boom------

Two figures transformed into shooting stars.

At a speed that exceeds the limits of physics.

It broke the sound barrier.

It broke through the smoke of battle.

Towards that starship about to plunge into the abyss.

Towards that fate that is about to come to an end.

Full speed ahead!

The mirror flow remains in place.

Staring blankly at the sky.

Watching those two streaks of light disappear into the distance.

The sword in my hand.

With a loud clang.

It fell to the ground.
