After the proposal, the Valkyrie came to the door

Kiana!

The girl in front of me, whose true identity is actually K-423, a Herrscher experimental subject derived from Sirin, is kicking away a rush-class Honkai Beast with a slick flying kick, and then turns to the young man who is struggling to hold on among a group of zombies while holding a baseball bat.

"I didn't expect there were ordinary people in Changkong City who could hold out until now. They're quite skilled!"

"My name is Kiana Kaslana, and yours is Kiana Kaslana."

Hearing the girl's energetic voice, Anliang in the dream stood frozen in place.

If I remember correctly, this was when he first met Kiana.

At that time, he had only reincarnated a few times and thought that he had gained the ability to rewind time after his transmigration. He gradually got rid of his fear and struggled to survive in Changkong City, which was experiencing the third collapse. In the end, he met Kiana and her group, who were also fleeing Changkong City.

It was through Kiana that he learned he hadn't transmigrated to the world of Resident Evil, that this world contained Honkai and Herrschers, as well as Valkyries who fought against them, and that he successfully joined St. Freya Academy.

Looking back on the many cycles that Anliang has experienced...

This encounter with Kiana can be considered the beginning of his career as a captain, the origin of the story.

P.S.: Hey everyone, Seele and Fu Hua have already reached the protagonist's side, and Mei is ready to join the battle, so it's time for Kiana and Theresa to make their appearance. To be fair, the author has actually been laying the groundwork for Kiana for a long time, planting many foreshadowing elements, while Theresa, who wields destiny, possesses unlimited power.

Heh heh heh, when all six Valkyries with their unique skills make their appearance, how can the Captain possibly withstand them? What ability could possibly withstand them?!

Chapter 133 Captain, can you go and save me before I become the Herrscher of the End?

"I really miss it..."

"To put it in a rather melodramatic way, it was this encounter with Kiana that set the wheels of fate in motion."

Anliang looked at himself in his dream, holding a baseball bat and fighting a suicide squad to a standstill, and was filled with emotion.

At that time, he was still too weak and too ignorant.

On this chessboard called "Collapse," set up by higher-dimensional beings, various forces fight and scheme against each other. An Liang, who has only reincarnated a few times, is nothing more than an ant that will die if it is affected, and is not even a chess piece.

Therefore……

Although he escaped from Changkong City, the starting village, after his first encounter with Kiana, he didn't have a good time at St. Freya Academy for long. During a business trip, he encountered a sudden Honkai disaster and was beaten to pieces by a Temple-level Honkai Beast, dying on the spot.

However, from Anliang's current perspective, that collapse disaster may not have happened suddenly.

"At that time, I had already realized that Kiana had a Herrscher personality and planned to investigate with Theresa... Otto probably discovered this and thought that I might be hindering his plans, so he created a Honkai disaster to silence me."

An Liang curled his lip, a cold smile on his face.

Otto has betrayed his teammates far too many times. Anliang was killed by Otto many times in the early stages of Samsara. If you feel that you have been betrayed, you can always blame Otto.

As my thoughts raced, the scene before me gradually changed.

A person who is dreaming is in a state between wakefulness and confusion, and will ignore a lot of details, so Anliang did not feel anything was wrong, but was just looking at the newly appeared scene.

The cool moonlight streamed down through the gaps in the clouds, falling onto the sea and shattering into countless strands of silver light.

The tide crashed on the beach, washing a man and a woman ashore.

Her braids came undone, and the girl with waist-length white hair was the first to regain consciousness. She struggled to lift her eyelids, and one of her originally clear blue eyes was now tinged with a cold gold.

I didn't even have time to check the changes in myself...

The first thing the girl did after waking up was to look around, and then she saw the young man not far away.

The severely injured young man was breathing very weakly, his life hanging by a thread, as if it could be extinguished at any moment. Even in such a poor condition, he was unconscious but still tightly gripped a used Honkai serum.

"Captain, Captain... don't die... please, you must live..."

The girl scrambled to the young man's side, checked his injuries, and her voice trembled with tears. Water droplets slid down her pale cheeks, indistinguishable as to whether they were tears, seawater, or both.

She desperately tried to recall the first aid knowledge she had learned in class, bandaged the young man's wounds, and then clumsily performed artificial respiration on him.

This treatment lasted until the sun rose above the sea level.

The warm sunlight brought life to all things and also injected a bit of vitality into the young man's body, pulling him out of his coma.

He just woke up at the wrong time, just as the girl bent down to give him mouth-to-mouth resuscitation.

But the girl showed no embarrassment or shyness; she simply hugged the young man, tears streaming down her face.

"That's great, Captain... Oh, that's really great!"

"I... I was afraid you would never wake up again. You had the chance to kill me back then, and Teacher Himeko said that Valkyries who go out of control must be killed immediately... But why, Captain, did you risk your life to save me?!"

The girl buried her head in the young man's chest, asking with snot and tears streaming down her face.

The young man simply gave the girl a faint smile, his tone gentle yet earnest.

"It's probably because I like you, Kiana."

The image freezes at this moment.

Anliang looked at the version of himself that confessed to Kiana, his expression shifting between light and shadow, a complex mix of emotions he couldn't quite describe.

This is his thirteenth reincarnation, and one he can never forget.

By then, Anliang was no longer a novice and knew a little about the secrets of the Honkai.

In addition, the precognitive abilities granted by rebirth...

In the thirteenth cycle, Anryo successfully saved Kiana in Himeko's place and thwarted Otto's conspiracy. This gave Anryo the confidence to defeat the Honkai. At the same time, with budding feelings, he confessed his love to Kiana, who was like a white moonlight to him.

The girl naturally didn't refuse, and the two began dating quite naturally.

With the help of love, Kiana mastered the Herrscher powers more easily than she had imagined. Anra also used the power of the Herrscher of the Void to force Otto to abdicate in favor of Theresa, and then used the power of Schicksal to hinder World Serpent and delay Kevin's return from the Sea of ​​Quanta.

At that time, he hadn't experienced enough, and subjectively considered Kevin to be the enemy. His Stigmata Project would only hinder his speedrun of Honkai Impact 3rd.

Crazy, so crazy!

Looking back from now, Anliang in his thirteenth reincarnation has become extremely arrogant.

However, this is understandable.

Under An Liang's leadership, Schicksal achieved victory after victory. Almost all the Herrschers were eliminated as soon as they arrived, and only half a year had passed by the time he killed the Herrscher of Corruption.

Faced with such a dazzling record, no one doubted that Destiny would surely defeat the Honkai. Even Anliang began to consider his post-war wedding with Kiana, until—

The sudden arrival of the Herald of the End!

Without Kevin to carry out the Stigmata Project, and with the progress of the campaign being too fast, Prometheus, as the will of Honkai, could no longer play its intended role, and the Herrscher of the End descended when no one was prepared.

That was a true Herald of the End.

It possesses full authority and can draw upon the power of the cocoon without holding back in the slightest.

Two of the heroes from the previous civilization era were killed without injury by the Herrscher of the End just five minutes after they started fighting. Even though Kevin tried his best, he could only stop the Herrscher of the End from operating for ten hours.

The situation that Anliang is facing is even worse than that of the previous civilization era.

Because the person chosen by the cocoon as the vessel for the Herrscher of the End's descent happens to be...

Perhaps sensing Anliang's subconscious thoughts, the scene in the dream changed again, and unforgettable memories surfaced before his eyes!

On the wrecked remains of a planet devastated by war...

The white-haired girl, now the Herrscher of the End, regained her senses and found all her former companions lying beside her. Anliang, the last human to survive, was also critically injured and on the verge of death, unable to even stand.

The girl instinctively tried to support Anliang, but her outstretched hand instantly gripped Anliang's neck, slowly but firmly applying pressure.

"Cough cough... Qi... Yana..."

Anliang wanted to say something, but the gradually crushing throat bones made it difficult for him to speak.

He had called the girl's name repeatedly before, but human consciousness was clearly unable to resist the drive of Honkai, and it was impossible to wake Kiana up.

If he remains unable to wake up, that's one thing.

However, the cruelest thing about the world is that it never goes as you wish.

As Anliang was dying, the Honkai weakened its control over the girl's body because it had completed the cleansing of civilization.

"I'm so sorry, Captain, I'm so sorry!"

Kiana, who regained consciousness at the last moment, trembled and two lines of tears slid down her cheeks.

She tried to let go, but to her despair, she found that her body still wouldn't obey her commands, and the hand gripping Anliang's throat was still tightening its grip.

Don’t…don’t…

Everything she had protected had been destroyed, and now she had to watch helplessly as she killed the captain and the one she loved with her own hands…

Unable to bear the pain, Kiana attempted suicide to die with the captain. However, at this moment, she was the Herrscher of the End, the strongest life form created by the Honkai, and had long since transcended the category of "human".

No one could kill her, not even herself.

The moment Kiana realized this fact, she was completely overwhelmed by despair.

But at that moment, a bloodstained hand gently stroked the girl's cheek.

Unable to speak, Anliang used his last moments of lucidity to raise his hand and wipe away Kiana's tears. This was the only way he could comfort the girl and say goodbye!

The annihilation did not lead Anliang to despair; he would take the lessons of failure and return to the beginning of the timeline.

It's not a big problem; he still has a chance to salvage the situation!

I'm so sorry, Kiana, I'm the one who should be apologizing...

I thought I could overcome the Honkai this time, and that our relationship would have a good outcome, but I failed again, once more… But next time, I will…

Anliang swallowed his resentment and regret, and closed his eyes.

In his final moments before his consciousness faded, the girl whose tears had been wiped away seemed to have discovered something from the perspective of the end. She tightly embraced the lifeless corpse, as if grasping at a straw, and pleaded in a trembling voice.

"I don't know if this is true, and I don't know if you can hear me, Captain, but if you can, I want to ask you to do something that only you can do..."

"If you could go back in time, could you save that idiot me before I became the Herrscher of the End?"

"Captain, if I am not the savior... then please be my savior!"

PS: This chapter is a bit late, mainly because I wrote nearly a thousand more words to ensure the continuity of the plot. Also, it's about Kiana's memories and many subsequent plot points, so I carefully considered and revised it for a long time while writing it.

Without the variables like Kevin and Otto, the protagonist's relationship with Kiana in this cycle would have to fight the true end, just like in the previous civilization. And because Kiana became the vessel for that end, the result was the happy ending of Honkai Impact 2. Fortunately, the protagonist retained his memories after the time restart, and in the end, he actually had a similar script to Homura Akemi in Madoka Magica... haha. Although there are quite a few mixed elements, the author felt good about it after finishing it. If you think it's okay, please vote for it!

Chapter 134 Kiana: Only the strong deserve to be captains!

"call……"

Anliang stood in front of the sink and turned on the faucet forcefully.

Cold water gushed out, gathering in his broad palms before being splashed hard onto his face.

Water droplets splashed on the skin, a cool sensation seeped into the pores, and instantly refreshed the mind.

For someone who has just woken up, washing their face with cold water can effectively dispel sleepiness. However, Anliang washed his face for three or four minutes, and when he opened his eyes, he was still full of fatigue.

Anliang turned off the tap and looked at his reflection in the mirror.

His wet hair clung to his slightly pale face, and there were obvious blood vessels in the corners of his eyes. His drooping eyebrows made him look somewhat listless.

"I had dreams all night long, I didn't get any rest..."

Looking at his haggard appearance, Anliang sighed helplessly.

If you only look at the first half of the dream, he undoubtedly had a good dream last night. But in the end, he dreamed of the ending of his relationship with Kiana. All the beautiful things he dreamed of turned into a horrifying knife!

"Ha, I thought I had let go of everything after destroying the Cocoon of the End..."

"I never expected that after hearing about Kiana, I would still dream about the thirteenth reincarnation!"

Anliang rubbed his temples, and many memories that hadn't appeared in last night's dream flashed through his mind.

In his thirteenth reincarnation, he thought that with Otto and Kevin dealt with, and the infighting among the various factions eliminated, humanity's victory over the Honkai would be a piece of cake.

Who could have imagined that this would lead to the most desperate situation?

Kiana became the vessel for the Herrscher of the End, and under the control of the Honkai, she utterly destroyed civilization. He too was defeated after a fierce battle with the Herrscher of the End for several tens of minutes...

The girl watched as she killed the captain with her own hands, and in despair, she suffered a mental breakdown.

As for Anliang, the one who was killed, it would be impossible for him to say that he had no psychological trauma.

Both he and Kiana were experiencing their first relationship, and they were finally on the verge of getting married when he was suddenly subjected to being strangled to death by his girlfriend. Do you know how much psychological damage that would cause to a child?!
