Firefly, I want to be a Sanyo Hermit

[Cocoon of the End] gives a very simple reason, for a "hug".

"I see..."

The reasons given by [Cocoon of the End] itself have confirmed the conjecture in the 'original world'.

The 'collapse' that is wreaking havoc on civilization is essentially an embrace of the Earth by the [Cocoon of the End].

It’s just that the gap between the dimensions is too large, so any action of [Cocoon of the End] will cause immeasurable damage.

Just like a person, any random action can cause endless casualties of microorganisms.

And now, because of the appearance of [Power of Origin], the power that is closest to [Power of the End] among the thirteen powers, the sight of [Cocoon of the End] also fell on them.

[Cocoon of the End] understands today's civilization through some means, and cultivates Herrschers with its own understanding, hoping that Herrschers will be able to reach the real [Land of the End] one day.

At that time, the [Cocoon of the End] will hatch a true [Hersher of the End], and the way the [Hersher of the End] embraces civilization is the way of the [Cocoon of the End].

To put it another way, the gods are looking for a way to reach humans, and after experiencing countless wrong ways, they choose to find a demigod, let this demigod merge with themselves and become a new god, in order to gain humanity close to humans.

"...Suddenly I felt something funny." Kiana dropped the sword in her hand to the ground. "This feeling... is so strange."

Kiana felt like all her efforts had become a joke.

[That's not the case.] What surprised Kiana was that [Cocoon of the End] actually began to comfort herself.

According to the description of [Cocoon of the End]... everything Kiana is doing now not only provides protection to mankind, but also liberates the Honkai Impact 3.

It is precisely because Kiana took several steps to release the Honkai that [Cocoon of the End] was able to come into contact with the Herrscher much earlier.

Otherwise, the [Cocoon of the End] that has not yet awakened will follow its instincts and grant the Herrscher power, and the Herrscher will accept the mission of collapse and destroy civilization.

So everything Kiana does is very valuable.

"Thank you." Kiana scratched her cheek with a strange expression, not expecting that she would be comforted by the [Cocoon of the End]. "But speaking of which... since Mei and I are in front of you... why don't you try to make us [Herser of the End] directly?"

Of course, this was just a suggestion that Kiana came up with on a whim... probably because she found that [Cocoon of the End] had a good temper.

If one of them were to become the [Herringer of the End], then what the [Cocoon of the End] had been pursuing for such a long time would be accomplished directly.

And for the earth, the catastrophe of collapse has ended.

"Om~"

The answer is just as Kiana thought, no. Before the thirteen powers appeared, the [Cocoon of the End] had not fully awakened, and naturally the time for the so-called [Hersher of the End] to descend had not yet arrived.

"Okay." Kiana was not disappointed. Rather, being able to communicate face to face with the [Cocoon of the End] in such a strange way today was far beyond Kiana's expectations.

But then again, through some of the exchanges just now, Kiana discovered that [Cocoon of the End] seemed to be scoring the Herrschers.

Walter is not a Herrscher, so his score is zero.

Xilin was watched by other [Ends] and was considered someone else's child, so her grades were zero.

Mei Raiden's strength is a little weak, and her mentality needs to be improved, so her current score is only C+.

Kiana is currently the best student. Her strength has exceeded the standard and her score is tentatively S+, but her mentality was penalized, so her current score is A+.

----

"What? My mentality is obviously good." When I came to my senses, Kiana and Raiden Mei had returned to the pure white space.

It seems like they were driven out by the [Cocoon of the End]!

"Perhaps [Cocoon of the End] has its own special scoring method." Raiden Mei comforted. "I didn't expect that in Aunt Ellie's opinion, Sister Kiana's mentality score was only D..."

"Oh~ I understand!" Suddenly, Mei Raiden, who knew that the so-called [Cocoon of the End] was actually Ellie, found that she might have discovered the truth. "Aunt Ellie gave Sister Kiana a low score because she found that Sister Kiana had oppressed her too much over the years, right?"

"I see..." Mei Raiden nodded secretly after understanding the truth. "As expected of Aunt Ellie, although she is usually a playful person, she is very concerned about the mental health education of children."

"It must be like this." Kiana nodded vigorously.

What's wrong with her mentality? She is lively, active, youthful, optimistic and cheerful, and has no inferiority complex.

"Ahaha..." Raiden Mei smiled subtly. "If you say so, then so..."

Many people have already told Kiana to have a good rest.

But in fact, Kiana is currently in a situation where "I am busy, but I don't know what I am busy with, but I am very busy."

Even when she is not working and lying at home, she is still constantly exhausting herself mentally.

If Kiana were captured for psychiatric counseling, she would definitely have a series of problems such as mental weakness and anxiety.

[But, Aunt Ellie, are you lying to Kiana? ] Raiden Mei asked quietly.

[Who said this was a lie?] Ellie responded to Raiden Mei. [What I just said was no joke.]

[...What?!] Raiden Mei's eyes widened in disbelief. [That [End Cocoon] was transformed by you, Aunt Ellie, right?]

[Who said that?] Ellie asked back. [That is the real [Cocoon of the End]. I just took over the [Cocoon of the End] temporarily with the authority of [Herrscher of the End] and adjusted some things inside.]

Ellie said it lightly, but for Mei Raiden it was undoubtedly a bolt from the blue... although being struck by lightning might not be a big deal for the Herrscher of Thunder.

[So...Aunt Ellie, what did you do?] Raiden Mei asked with some difficulty.

[Don't worry, even if you get a high score, you won't be able to become the Herrscher of the End.] Ellie said soothingly.

The [Cocoon of the End] of this universe is deeply bound to Kiana. Once the time is right, Kiana will naturally become the [Hersher of the End], and no one else can snatch it away.

[However, the higher the score, the more powerful power you can get from [Cocoon of the End].] Ellie explained to Raiden Mei. [Just like Mei, you know the difference between [Power of Origin] and other powers.]

[The Power of Origin] is closer to [The End] than any other power, so it possesses a more wonderful and powerful power that is different from other powers.

The [Cocoon of the End] adjusted by Ellie will also strengthen other Herrschers based on the score judgment.

In other words, any Herrscher actually has the potential to surpass the current Kiana.

Although in essence it is just gaining power from the [Cocoon of the End], the benefit is that when Kiana becomes the [Hersher of the End], other Herrschers will also have more powerful power, which will allow Kiana to better do what she wants.

There won't be a situation where the gap between Kiana and other Herrschers is too big and other Herrschers can't defeat many enemies, causing Kiana to have to do everything herself.

[I see. I understand.] Raiden Mei finally figured out what Ellie was doing. [Just like the enemies they encountered before time went back...]

While trying to relieve Kiana's pressure by "talking to the Cocoon of the End".

On the other hand, a team of Herrschers is being trained for Kiana, so that there will no longer be a situation where only Kiana can fight.

[That's right.] Although she couldn't see Ellie, Mei Raiden could feel her mood at the moment. [Well~ Although I am a bit of a joker, no matter what... as a parent, you always want to pave the way for your children and make it easier for them, right?]

[Well... I can understand, but Aunt Ellie... since you have adjusted the rules of [Cocoon of the End], does that mean that all Herrschers who appear later are friendly forces?] This is a point that Raiden Mei is more concerned about.

Although Mei Raiden is confident that she can easily defeat the Herrschers that appear in the later stages, and with Kiana's various potions as a backup, she can also make people immune to the erosion of the overly strong Honkai energy when the Herrscher is born.

However, there is always a certain time lag between the birth of the Herrscher and their arrival at the battlefield. During this time lag, it is easy to cause a large number of casualties.

If all Herrschers born in the future are friendly forces, then everything will be fine.

[You wishful thinking, huh?] Ellie's words broke Raiden Mei's fantasy. [Where there are good people there are bad people, and there are countless people who become arrogant after gaining power.]

[Although I have changed the rules of [Cocoon of the End] to a certain extent, the mechanism for selecting Herrschers has not changed.] Ellie explained to Mei Raiden. [And a very important point... the Herrschers of the previous civilization were selected by [Cocoon of the End], and the meaning of their existence lies in the 'anchor' of [Cocoon of the End] contacting humans, so these Herrschers are like puppets and have no self-will.]

[The current civilization selects Herrschers, triggers negative emotions, and deceives people... It's all done by [Honkai Will], that is, Prometheus, and has nothing to do with [Cocoon of the End]... Of course, the most important point is that the Herrschers of the current civilization era have "humanity", so they can be deceived.]

C.110 Sirin's Snack Box

"What's the situation?" Seeing that Kiana and Raiden Mei had woken up, Qibao and Xilin couldn't wait to ask.

"Emm... the situation is very special." Kiana said with a subtle expression. "The so-called system in Mei's body... is far beyond the limit of what we can solve."

"How could it be?" Xilin's eyes widened, and she looked at Raiden Mei with concern. "It's not like what is said in those novels, that if the system's information is revealed, the host will be wiped out or something like that... If it can't even do something like that, then the strength of this system should not be very high, right?"

According to Mei Raiden's description, her system can only provide her with some training plans. Although it can indeed strengthen her, it is not like the systems that Xilin and the others know, which can give her whatever she wants.

Of course...it's not that there aren't some shameful systems, but a system that can only make training plans...isn't it a bit too rubbish no matter how you think about it?

"No... the essence of this system is actually..." Kiana explained the existence of [Cocoon of the End] to Qibao and Xilin.

...

......

"That is to say... Auntie, your efforts over the years have not only enabled many people to have enough resistance to the outbreak of [Sequence Great Collapse], but it has also been judged as a progress of civilization by [Cocoon of the End], so the 'collapse sealed under civilization' has also been further liberated?"

"Therefore, [Cocoon of the End] also awakened ahead of time..."

Although Qibao is an S-class Valkyrie, the things that Kiana said are not only not understood by S-class Valkyries, but even Cecilia and Otto don't know much about them.

Well... Actually, that's not the case. The more important point is that although Kiana knows some things, she is unable to relay what she knows in the 'original world'. After all, she doesn't know how to explain it.

"I didn't expect that such a thing would happen..." Xilin looked at Raiden Mei with complicated eyes.

It was obvious that Xilin believed this statement.

"But why... only Mei got the so-called system? What about mine?" Xilin blinked in confusion.

Kiana is different from all the Herrschers. She is degenerated from the [Herscher of the End]. It is natural for her to not have a system.

But why doesn't Xilin, a traditional herrscher, have any of them?

"Um... according to the description of [Cocoon of the End]... Xilin, you have been planned by [Cocoon of the End] to be in the category of 'another child of [The End]', so He... doesn't care about you." Kiana scratched her cheek and said with a subtle expression.

"Huh?" Xilin raised her eyebrows. "Something's wrong!"

[Xilin]'s experience, apart from the failure due to being too arrogant, is exactly the treatment of a candidate for [End], right?

How come it becomes someone else here...hiss...

Xilin complained in her heart for a few words before she reacted.

Indeed, the Herrscher core in her body was given by Ellie, and Ellie is the Herrscher of the End...so there seems to be no problem in her being judged as 'another child of the End' by the Cocoon of the End.

"Okay." Xilin snorted.

Actually, Xilin doesn’t really care about the system, but... Xilin, who often surfs the Internet... is really curious about the system!

"Ahem." Kiana coughed lightly, then reached out and tapped Xilin's shoulder. "Xilinlin, if you really want that system, you can ask your aunt. She will always comply with your requests, right?"

"..." Hearing what Kiana said, Xilin pursed her lips.

It's true that the golden lady is obedient...but she always makes some messy things to amuse people, and then gives out rewards...

Xilin was very suspicious that in the other world, Ellie was the kind of person who would pester Cecilia every day to play with Qibao, and then give her back to Cecilia when she cried.

"How pitiful." Xilin looked at Qibao with a hint of pity in her eyes.

Although it is Qibao's [Parallel Universe Identical].

"?" Qi Bao noticed Aunt Xilin's pitying eyes and frowned, but he didn't know what was going on.

"What's the use of that fake system?" Xilin snorted and turned her head away.

She is a lazy bug!

Although she didn't get rid of it completely, and was often caught by Raiden Mei for special training... But no matter what, she didn't want a broken system like Raiden Mei's, which would watch her complete her training plan every day.

[Ding~ The Herrisher Training System has been activated]

Just when Xilin was about to say that the grapes were sour, she suddenly heard a voice in her head.

"Wait a minute, I seem to... have activated the system too?" Xilin's voice instantly made Kiana, Qibao and Raiden Mei quiet down, and their eyes were focused on her.

[Detection of host constitution...]

"Here it comes, the classic test of the host's constitution." Xilin was very familiar with this.

[Host detection has been completed. The powers mastered by the host are [Power of the Sky], [Power of Thunder], [Power of Fire], [Power of Death], and [Power of Wind]]

[Start posting tasks now...]

"Wait! System, give me the novice gift pack!" Xilin shouted confidently. "Since you are [The Cocoon of the End], which was created through the systems in various works, you should also have some corresponding functions, right?"

“So, a newbie gift pack!”

"Xilin..." Hearing Xilin's self-righteous and impolite behavior, Kiana widened her eyes in worry.

"What are you afraid of?" Xilin said, with her hands on her hips. "[End Cocoon] said it herself, right? I am 'another [End] child'." Xilin raised her chin slightly, looking like she had nothing to be afraid of.

"As expected of you." Looking at Sirin's swollen look, Kiana gave her an expression that said "I can't bear to watch".

After all, the inflated Xilin is really... too familiar.

"And I can see that... Xilin, you just dislike her in words, right?" Kiana discovered that although Xilin seemed to dislike Ellie and addressed her vaguely.

But when the time came, she admitted without hesitation that she was 'another child of [End]'.
