Honkai Impact 3rd experience, starting with a thousand Herrschers

Seele sat in her seat looking particularly timid and helpless, with her head down, appearing very easy to bully.

After listening to Cheng Xing's story yesterday, Kiana did not have any negative feelings towards the girl. She simply said calmly, "In fact, I can roughly guess what you want to say. Cheng Xing told me about his experiences over the past few days yesterday."

"Alright then, Bronya doesn't like to complicate things. Kiana, what are you planning to do about this?"

“Actually, it’s not right for you to come to me to talk about this,” Kiana said, then remembered that Cheng Xing might have several girlfriends in other worlds. “You think that coming to me will solve the problem, but that’s the biggest mistake you made. The person who can really decide this is Cheng Xing himself.”

“…You’re right, but based on Bronya’s understanding of that person, I’m afraid we can’t persuade him.”

"Perhaps you could call him out and have a proper talk, like you are now. As his girlfriend, I certainly don't support my love being shared more, but I also respect his choice. If you can persuade him, I have no objection."

“Bronya calculated that you would strongly refuse.”

Hearing this, Kiana sighed, propped her head up, looked at the weather outside, and muttered to herself, "I was the one who arrived late too."

Himeko clutched her head. Although you look incredibly cool and powerful when you're drinking heavily, you look particularly pathetic when you're suffering from a hangover.

"Theresa, what happened? I don't think I have any classes today. Let me stay home and rest."

Himeko practically forced herself to endure the nausea all the way to Theresa's office. It was because she didn't have class today, and she had been drinking so much yesterday, that she was suddenly called into the office. She had no idea what was going on.

"Well, the main thing is that a transfer student is about to join your class. Here is her information. As her teacher, you should at least take a look at it."

Theresa handed a file folder to her friend as she spoke.

"Can't you just give me this tonight? Why do you have to call me into your office?"

Himeko complained, but she immediately untied the file bag in her hand and took out the paper files inside.

"This is official business, not a private matter. After you've seen these things, I still need to keep them in the archives in my office. These are personal documents, how can I just hand them over casually? If they get leaked, I, as the dean, will be extremely irresponsible."

Himeko nodded in agreement, then looked at the transfer student's file in her hand and read out her name.

"Penglai Temple in the Nine Heavens..."

Chapter 202: Enrollment

"Hmph! Is this the point where destiny converges? I, the savior, have traversed time and space to arrive at this cycle of fate! I will witness it, I will change this world that is destined to be turned upside down! Hahaha!"

A girl stood at the school gate, arms crossed, laughing loudly, which drew surprised glances from many passersby and caused whispers among them.

"Is this the new transfer student? He seems to have some mental issues."

"Sigh, you're from abroad, so you probably don't understand. Here, we call it 'chuunibyou' (middle school syndrome). It means constantly fantasizing about having some extraordinary destiny or superhuman strength."

"Wow, isn't she embarrassed?"

"...She's already in the zone, and in that zone, the chuunibyou (middle school syndrome) won't feel embarrassed."

"You seem very knowledgeable. Could it be that you were once...?"

"Don't look at me like that, I didn't!"

Penglai Temple Nine Heavens ignored the lines of the passersby around her. As the savior, she only needed to focus on the main characters. Who would bother remembering the lines of the NPCs?

Then, when our savior started looking for the headmaster's office, she realized that the school was huge and she seemed to be lost.

"Ugh! How did I get here? Where am I? Why isn't there anyone to ask for directions?"

Penglai Temple Jiuxiao looked around in confusion. He had been so excited that he hadn't realized he was lost without even noticing, and it seemed he had ended up in some remote place where there was no one to ask for directions.

"No, it's alright. Generally speaking, I'm sure I'll encounter an extremely important character in such a remote corner at this time, and then there will definitely be a development that fits the plot!"

Penglai Temple Nine Heavens cheered himself up and then continued his aimless wandering.

Sitting in her office, Theresa looked at the clock on the wall. After waiting for half an hour later than the scheduled time, she finally couldn't stand it anymore and dialed Himeko's number.

"Himeko! Is that transfer student with you now? I've been waiting for her for ages and she hasn't come."

"what?"

Himeko paused for a moment on the other end of the phone, then continued, "How could she possibly come here? Transfer students always go to your school to register and handle the paperwork first. Could it be that she got lost on her first visit to the school?"

"That shouldn't be the case. I clearly put up signs and maps everywhere. Even if I got lost, they should be able to contact me using the phone numbers on them. Even if I ended up in a place without signs, I should be able to find someone to ask for directions. It's not class time now, is it?"

"I'll go to the security office and check the surveillance footage to see where that transfer student went."

"Oh, thank you for your trouble. I'll also look for any unmarked areas to see if there's any trace of her."

After hanging up on Himeko, Theresa immediately dialed her niece's cell phone.

Kiana, who was sitting at the table eating snacks made by Cheng Xing and playing mobile games, suddenly found that her period was calling.

"Hey! Auntie, what's up? I'm still busy here!"

“A new transfer student came to the school today, but I waited for her for quite a while and she didn’t show up. Go to some of the more remote corners and see if you can find her.”

"Ah... I understand."

After hanging up the phone, Kiana turned around and called out, "Cheng Xing! There's a new transfer student who might be lost on campus. Go look for him. I'm still playing games here."

"it is good."

Cheng Xing came out of the kitchen, took off her apron, and then said, "But what's that transfer student's name?"

"Emmm... I forgot to ask earlier, let me make a call and ask first."

However, when Kiana tried to make the call, she found that Theresa's number seemed to be busy, and she didn't know when she could get through.

"Alright, alright, you should hurry up and play your game, otherwise your teammates will report you for AFK. I'll look for it myself first."

"Hehe, I'm sorry for causing you trouble."

"It's okay, what can I do? I'm your boyfriend."

Cheng Xing smiled helplessly, then walked straight out of the dormitory.

After coming out, he first went to a corner at the back of the dormitory. After making sure that no one was watching him, he sent out a flock of birds to help him search the entire school.

"Hmm? I don't see any new faces?"

After searching the school several more times using the birds' vision, Cheng Xing still didn't find any unfamiliar faces. When he arrived at the school, he had already memorized everyone's faces using the dolls. If any new people appeared, he could quickly locate them using the birds.

But after searching around several times, we still haven't found the new student. Could it be that the transfer student hasn't actually arrived yet?

"Maybe he overslept or encountered some accident on the way."

After searching in vain, Cheng Xing had no intention of continuing the search. He put away the flock of birds and left, even though he could have used the flock of birds to monitor the entire school from the beginning.

But the school is mostly female, so what he was doing would be too indecent! So he didn't set up any informants in the school to avoid seeing anything he shouldn't.

Just as the flock of birds finished their surveillance, Penglai Temple Kusho emerged from a toilet stall, clutching his stomach and looking extremely unwell.

"That's strange, I ate the same breakfast as usual today, why did I suddenly have an upset stomach? Luckily I found a toilet, otherwise it would have been embarrassing!"

Hōraiji Kyusō complained, then continued exploring the school. However, it didn't take long before she was spotted by Raiden Mei, who was helping to find someone.

"You must be the transfer student?"

Raiden Mei glanced at the Houraiji Kyusou in front of her, then at the photo she'd gotten from the headmaster on her phone. After confirming it was correct, she smiled and said, "I am..."

"I know! You're Raiden Mei!"

As a result, Houraiji Kyusho directly said Raiden Mei's name, which surprised the latter slightly.

"As the savior of the apocalypse, I naturally know the true names of important figures: the Queen of Thunder, the Demon King who rebelled against the gods! Would you like to join me in forming a team of heroes to save the world?"

Raiden Mei's smile froze a bit. Looking at the child in front of her speaking in words she couldn't quite understand, she realized that this was a late-stage case of chuunibyou (middle school syndrome) who was completely unable to communicate normally.

"So... could you explain what you mean?"

"Um, I'm lost. Please take me to the dean's office."

"...Okay, come with me."

(Why didn't you say that from the beginning?!)

Even the usually mild-mannered Raiden Mei couldn't help but internally complain.

Chapter 203: The Dean's Majesty

"Hōraiji Kyuushō, a natural-born Stigmata user, was discovered wandering in a Honkai-affected area while her team was on a mission dealing with an incident. Upon meeting the Valkyrie team, she claimed to be the savior of the Apocalypse, stating that she possessed the power to save the world after making a deal with the Great Sage. After the team's initial investigation and identity verification, it was confirmed that she was just an ordinary high school girl suffering from chuunibyou (middle school syndrome)."

"And he happened to be caught up in the Honkai event. After discovering that he had awakened the special power of the Stigmata, his chuunibyou level reached an unprecedented level. However, most of the time, if he asked others to have a normal conversation with him, he could still speak in a way that everyone could understand."

Himeko recalled the file she had seen and felt a headache coming on. How come there was another problem student?

Theresa sat quietly in her office waiting. After hearing a knock on the door, she coughed and said, "Come in." Then she saw Raiden Mei bring the new student in.

"Dean, I've found the person; they were indeed lost."

"No, I just felt the guidance of fate, so I deliberately lost my way, waiting for the right person to guide me on the path forward."

Penglai Temple Nine Sou suddenly jumped out and said that he was not lost, but deliberately walked to a secluded corner to meet the main characters.

"Really? So you did it on purpose, and didn't just get lost for no reason?"

Upon hearing this, Theresa raised an eyebrow and stared at the Nine Heavens of Penglai Temple in front of her. However, the latter was immersed in her own chuunibyou fantasy and was completely unaware of the unfriendly gaze.

"That's exactly right!"

"Very well! Penglai Temple Nine Heavens! You actually made me sit here for almost an hour waiting for you because of your own baseless excuse! You wasted an entire hour of my work time, and even made the school investigate the surveillance footage of students entering and leaving to find your whereabouts! Do you know how much trouble you've caused others?!"

Theresa then abruptly stood up from her chair and slammed her hand on the table, the immense force causing a crack to appear on the tabletop.

At this moment, Raiden Mei finally witnessed the oppressive aura of the headmaster. Although she looked like a child, Theresa was now truly displaying the dignity befitting her status.

"...Yes, I'm sorry."

When Penglai Temple Jiuxiao saw the table with a crack, she immediately stopped her chuunibyou (middle school syndrome) behavior. Although she had a serious case of chuunibyou, it didn't mean she was stupid.

She had reason to suspect that if she continued like this, her head might crack open like a table.

"You've wasted so much of everyone's time, even their rest time! I understand that kids your age might have some fantasies, and I don't have a problem with that, but the premise is that you don't waste other people's time or cause them trouble because of this!"

"The purpose of this school is to cultivate enough Valkyries to fight against the Honkai, not a paradise where you can have fun, play around, and act recklessly without any discipline or sense of crisis! This is a place to train warriors! If you still want to be a student, a child who can freely express their personality, leave here and go back to your original school."

Theresa spoke these words with a serious and earnest air, creating an aura and a sense of oppression that even reminded Raiden Mei of her father's expression when facing business rivals.

They were all so serious and earnest.

"If you create danger or difficulties for your teammates on the battlefield because of your inexplicable personality, do you know how many people will lose their lives because of it?!"

Penglai Temple's Jiuxiao no longer had that carefree attitude; he now resembled a student who had been caught skipping class and was being criticized by his homeroom teacher.
