Live broadcast of Honkai Impact 3rd, I chose to expose Kiana in Sky City!

"Is that so? Hmm~ I think the other Seele is also very cute."

A pink bullet screen floated across the live broadcast room...

Obviously, Alicia understood the profound meaning of Hei Xier's words in an instant.

She really likes Xier~ It turns out that the relationship between girls is so sweet and beautiful~

[You think too much. I am not as kind as you say. If she dies, I will go with her, so I have to protect her.]

Just as Alicia's barrage passed by, Hei Xi also refuted Bronya's point of view.

Of course, it is unknown whether she said those words out of embarrassment.

[I... just followed my own heart. It's because the people around her are useless that she always has to suffer so much. I had no choice but to help her. You should reflect on this.]

[Bronya will. Thank you for always being by Seele's side.]

Shibao was surprised to see that Bronya accepted Hei Xi so easily and straightforwardly, and she agreed very politely.

My expression turned a little ugly...

[Why did you accept her so easily? ? ? ]

Faced with Shibao's questioning, Bronya and Hei Xi just turned their heads and looked at her silently.

Then he turned his head back and continued the conversation.

[I've already told you, don't thank me. To her, you are the most important person.]

[When I control the body, Xier will fall asleep. I guess at this time, she is still worried about you in her dream and calling your name. ]

Afterwards, Hei Xi also expressed his inner thoughts to Bronya.

Although her words were full of jealousy, she actually didn't have many thoughts about Bronya.

Bronya is also very tolerant of the second personality in her sister.

The conversation went quite harmoniously, so much so that Shibao joined in and said a few words.

Then, it's time to say goodbye...

One day after the attack on the Salt Lake base.

[Huh... I finally finished the report. So many things happened in just a few hours. I'm worried that I missed some details...]

After finishing the report, Xier breathed a sigh of relief.

[I didn't miss any details, but you were too modest and didn't mention your wonderful performance at all. Your contribution was so great, why didn't you tell Einstein? At least elaborate on the part about escaping the theater.]

In her mind, Hei Xi complained about Xi'er's modesty.

Of course, she didn't just want to be in the spotlight, she mainly hoped that Xier could be more confident.

[If it were me, the reporting time would at least double. ]

[Well... I just don't want to drag it out that long. But, regarding your matter... is it okay to report it as it is?]

Xier was still very grateful to Hei Xi.

So she felt that it was not a good idea to just ignore it.

However, the parties involved did not actually have too many ideas.

[No problem, I'm not lying. You did open a way out with the power of Seer, didn't you? ]

[My elder sister didn't say anything, it seems she doesn't intend to expose us. ]

Although Hei Xi has said that it is completely fine, Xier still has her own ideas about it.

Then, Xier expressed her hope.

[They should know that the other me in my body grew up with me and lived with me. You are an inseparable part of me, and together we are all "Xi'er". ]

【I hope all my friends can become your friends. 】

Although these words made Hei Xi very happy, she would not show it directly.

[......Tsk. Okay, okay, I'll talk to you when I'm in the mood.]

Just this level of expression made Hei Xi feel a little embarrassed.

Being a proud girl, she made a very interesting joke at this time.

[Maybe I'll suddenly get excited, take control of my body, stand on the table, and do the Cossack dance while shouting "I'm Xi'er!", and then we'll see what your friends will think.]

"Cossack dance... seems to be a more cheerful dance, right?"

A pink bullet screen floated by...

Although Alicia was not quite sure what dance Hei Xi was talking about, it should be interesting to be able to determine it through the context.

However, after hearing Hei Xi's joke, Xier actually took it seriously.

「Ah, this... Well, if you want... But you'd better change your clothes first...」

[Hey, you're not serious, are you? Only Rosalia can do something like this, right? ]

Hei Xi was a little embarrassed, and did not forget to mention Rosalia.

"Indeed, I feel like the older twin sister is really lively."

A pink bullet screen floated by...

What Alicia meant was that she quite agreed with what Hei Xi said.

After all, apart from Rosalia, it seems that no one else can do this kind of thing...

As her pink bullet screen passed by, many dark bullet screens also passed by...

"Dancing the Cossack dance? What kind of performance art is this?"

"Hahaha, this feels really interesting. I want to see it!"

“This is sure to be fun!”

The Thousand Herrschers seem to be curious about new things.

Of course, what they want to see more is Xier making a fool of herself in front of everyone.

As the dark barrages of comments from the Thousand Herrschers floated past one after another, Xier and Heixi had already begun discussing them.

[Speaking of which, after returning from the Domination Theater, have you had any contact with the puppets?]

[No, I've rejected them like that, so I'm afraid they won't bother me anymore. But...]

Hei Xi's story suddenly paused.

【What's wrong? 】

[No, I'm not sure. But, when I left the Domination Theater, a puppet said a bunch of incomprehensible words.]

[I just have a strange feeling... a feeling that makes people very concerned...]

......

As Hei Xi finished speaking, the main perspective of the plot switched to the domination theater...

Rustling, rustling.

In the theater, which should have been empty, bursts of tiny sounds were heard.

It was like the sound of a puppet's joints turning.

It was like a dark malice, condensed into a bloody sound——

Countless black shadows in the air rushed towards the building in the center of the theater with strange and stiff steps.

[I failed, I failed, but it doesn’t matter, it doesn’t matter!]

【There are still many friends! There are still many "us"!】

[Everyone has a shadow that they cannot get out of, everyone has a crack that is difficult to bridge, and everyone has another self that they don’t want to be discovered!]

The voice of the Ruler of Rule echoed in this eerie and terrifying theater.

[We are all caged birds, we are all slaves on the stage, we are all puppets under control! Look - it's about to begin, it's about to begin, it's about to begin!]

They whispered to each other, repeating the same words. Then, a thousand eyes were all cast in the same direction.

In the center of the theater, there is the solemn and dignified courtroom.

[Silence, silence! ]

The sound of the gavel hitting the wooden table echoed in the theater...

Now, let’s develop our next strategy.

Rustling, rustling.

The air was filled with noise.

The sound of hard objects colliding, the sound of mechanisms opening and closing, the sound of joints twisting... the sound of wood blocks hitting each other filled this small space.

There is no light, no temperature, no life, and no consciousness.

This noise, like a drop of water falling into a dark spring, caused endless ripples.

Yay—yay—countless sounds followed.

The sound of hard objects colliding, the sound of mechanisms opening and closing, the sound of joints twisting...

The creaking, hundreds and thousands of noisy sounds of wood blocks hitting each other.

In this empty space,

[Silence! Silence——!]

The gavel banged hard on the wooden table.

In response to this request for silence, the puppet's voice of questioning was heard from the audience.

[Hey! Why are you sitting so high up? ]

[That's it! Get down here! ]

The puppet in the middle of the courtroom ignored the noise.

[First, as usual, let me explain that today is the day to synchronize the latest situation and formulate the next course of action. ]

Unfortunately, the puppets in the audience didn't take her seriously at all.

[What's so good about synchronization? Isn't it the same every time, just a little bit of destruction here and there. ]

[Yes, these are just some minor fights. We are the law enforcers! Aren’t we supposed to destroy the ugly ant civilization? ]

[Alas, they are quarreling again. I have something else to do tonight, so I will leave now. Please tell me if there is any situation later.]

[Ah? Who are you? I don’t know you?]

"What a commotion... Is this how they work internally?"

A pink bullet screen floated across the screen...

After seeing the internal situation of the Thousand Herrscher, Alicia felt incredible.

Although they are both Herrschers who claim to be dominant, the cooperation between them can only be described as non-cooperation.

They started quarrelling right at the beginning of the meeting. Can such a Herrscher really be dangerous?

No one was listening to the guy in the referee's box.

Everyone here is immersed in the role they play, in this dominant theater, on this stage with thousands of people.

———Perhaps, this is indeed much more interesting than their previous identities.

[This week, we destroyed a total of 32 power plants, causing power supply and traffic chaos in more than 20 cities.]

[Mr. Langdon, your hometown is among them. You must be very happy. I remember that you didn't like that building when you were a child.]

[You got the wrong person. Langdon is not here. He is sitting opposite.]

A very funny thing happened...

However, behind this comic incident lies a dark truth.

[You're wrong too! Langdon never came. He was killed by the Valkyrie a long time ago!]

In the face of the two people's sabotage, the puppet on the referee's seat continued to talk about the recent situation.
