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

[But you are right. If you pass my trial, you will have true freedom and gain enough power to defeat Otto. But...]

[I'm afraid that normal attacks will not have any effect on me. ]

The will of the Holy Scar Space objectively stated what Yulandel could not do.

Just when he was about to state the rules, Yulandel reacted first.

[You need me to defeat you under the rules you set. ]

[You can say that. Although, I was not the one who constructed this space and made these rules. Everything I have done is just to guide "his" descendants, to guide the heirs of that special stigma.]

After hearing the words of the will of the Holy Scar Space, Yulandel was a little confused.

What special heir of the stigmata? Are you talking about Siegfried? Could it be that I am also included?

[Siegfried... a poor man, even I feel sad for him. ]

Perhaps because a rather special descendant of Kaslana was mentioned, the space of the stigmata also brought up a digression.

[He has clearly lost the chance to awaken, but he still challenges me again and again.]

[I warned him that this would only lead him to sink deeper and deeper, shedding more and more pieces of his personality - but the man was stubborn as hell. Just like his ancestors.]

"?"

A bright white bullet screen floated across the screen...

Obviously, Kevin didn't expect that the manager of the Stigmata Space would speak without hesitation and also complain about himself.

"Kevin... Yeah, he is stubborn sometimes, but I guess that's one of his characteristics."

"?"

"It's not so much stubbornness as determination. I think I may never find another fighter like him..."

"?"

"Haha, what stubbornness? In the final analysis, he just likes to act according to Mei's words."

"?"

As the Stigmata Manager mentioned Kevin, the complaints of his former colleagues suddenly floated across the live broadcast room.

For a moment, Kevin looked quite embarrassed...

As the comments were floating in the live broadcast room, Youlandel slowly asked her question to the consciousness of the Stigmata Space:

【ancestor?】

[Who else? His distant ancestor, Kevin Kaslana——]

The will of the Holy Mark Space once again mentioned Kevin's name.

This time, he did not spare his words and even began to introduce the way in which the Kaslana family's power would be passed down.

[His bloodline has passed down a special holy mark to this day, giving birth to this space and giving birth to the me of today.]

[You have fought him directly. You must understand what kind of person he is.]

Yulandel once again heard the reminder from the giant puppet in front of her and felt it was incredible.

She could never have imagined that the other party could even see this kind of memory.

[Of course. Do you remember those black monuments of memory you saw along the way?]

[They are the past that emerges around you as the entire space rises and falls, and they are the waves that I casually stir up in the sea of ​​memory...-It also means that in this space, the more you explore, the closer you will be to me and the more you will be bound by me. ]

[If you are still unsure of the most fundamental reason - before telling you the final truth, I might as well let you review some memories that have passed you by. ]

Although this is somewhat unfair to Yulandel...but if she wants to regain her freedom, then this is what she must face.

[——Are you ready? ]

Under the questioning of the will of the Holy Scar Space, Yulandel immediately recalled an almost forgotten memory.

There, she saw her beloved senior Ragnar.

And...Bishop Otto?

[Your Excellency, this is...]

[This is the child you saved. She was seriously injured, so I had to provide her with special treatment.]

"Otto? Save people? EhΣ(⊙▽⊙"aWho did you save?"

"This man can actually save people? I can't imagine..."

"Oh, what's so strange about that? Obviously, the person he wants to save is good for him, otherwise it's impossible no matter how you think about it, right?"

As Otto's almost iconic voice appeared, everyone in the live broadcast room was shocked.

After all, no one could have imagined that a man like Otto could actually save people?

To be honest, it's impossible for it to happen to anyone else, except for Kallen, whom he is obsessed with, right?

Unless, that person is very helpful to him.

[......So you think she can survive.]

[She is a tough monster, isn't she? She was hit on the head by the debris of the aircraft at an altitude of several thousand meters, and fell headfirst into the depths of the snowy mountains——]

[After going through all this, she still had vital signs when you found her. How strong her vitality must be.]

"???"

"???"

"What kind of new human is this... Uh, it reminds me of a monster who only knows how to think with his muscles..."

"what?"

As Otto spoke of the injured man's injuries, everyone in the live broadcast room was surprised.

How lucky is he to survive such a serious injury? Could it be that this injured person is not a human?

[The soul steel that is wrapped around her now is only to stimulate her own cell repair ability... I don't even need them to replace any of her body tissues. ]

[So, she will still be herself in the end, not even a hair will be affected?]

Otto gave a positive answer to Ragnar's question.

[This is definitely an exaggeration, but it is generally true. I don't need to create another soul steel copy, and she will definitely become the strongest Valkyrie in the destiny. ]

[Those who survive a great disaster will surely have good fortune in the future, right?]

Hearing this, Ragnar couldn't help but worry about Siegfried and Theresa...

However, her concern was directly rejected by Otto.

The reason is that these are family affairs within the three major families and no one else needs to worry about them.

Of course, Bishop Otto did not want to reveal anything.

On the contrary, in order to achieve his goal, he planned to tell Ragnar some little knowledge.

[——I don’t want her to be Kiana Kaslana anymore.]

She has the right to get rid of the adult disputes, embark on her own true path, and become the strongest warrior since the beginning of destiny.

When she wakes up again, she will have a new name and a new starting point. She will completely get rid of the personal grudges that have trapped her at this moment - to become a better person who is more beneficial to destiny and the future of mankind.

[You can understand me, right? Miss Ragnar Lodbrok.]

After mentioning his plan, Otto slowly asked this question.

And these words are actually very easy to understand.

In other words, Kiana was given a new name and identity by Otto and kept by his side for training.

However, there is a more serious issue here.

[…If she realizes all this one day, and realizes that she has been completely deceived, what are you going to do then?]

Archbishop Otto was not angry about Ragnar's offensive behavior of asking his superior random questions.

On the contrary, he honestly told us his possible solutions.

[This is not something you should worry about, Ragnar. But I don't want to be perfunctory with you - so let me say this. When that moment comes, I will give this child a self-image that is far more important than personal grudges. ]

[And once she accomplishes that goal...she will have also achieved her revenge on me.]

The amount of information contained in these words is quite large.

Because it means that Otto will not only train a successor, but also train his own executioner.

That would be a happy ending for everyone - isn't that great?

"Has he...even calculated his own death?"

"He kept his enemies by his side and nurtured them, and then he eliminated them...why would he do that?"

"It's hard to understand. From an absolutely rational point of view, there is no point in doing this. It is even equivalent to self-destruction, but he did it anyway... Is this a way of atonement?"

With Otto's final question, the memory recall came to an abrupt end...

After reading Otto's thoughtful speech, Yulandel was silent...

[What you just showed me was...Ragnar-senpai's memory?]

[No, that's not her memory.]

As he said this, the stigmata space suddenly switched to Kiana's appearance.

This sudden change surprised Yulandel greatly.

[Kiana? No - is this also one of the images you can transform into?]

[It's just a brief moment and there's nothing wrong with it. ]

Immediately afterwards, the will of the Holy Mark Space switched to the appearance of Archbishop Otto.

Then in the next sentence, she switched back to being Rita.

[And if you replace it with someone familiar in your memory like this, the image can be preserved for a longer time. ]

"Wow! This ability... is really interesting! Hehe, if I could, I really want to become Mei and see if Kevin would obey me as well?"

"Ah... you are a little too fanciful..."

"Haha~ I don't care about these, I'm just a little curious about what the person involved would think if he saw this sentence~"

"..."

As Alicia teased and everyone in the live broadcast room joked, a bright white barrage floated across the screen...

Obviously, he was also speechless by Alicia's wild imagination...

[Since this memory does not belong to Senior Ragnar, it can only belong to Bishop Otto.]

While the old friends in the live broadcast room were interacting with each other, Yulandel tentatively put forward her own guess.

Unfortunately, she guessed wrong.

[Sorry, no. Do you remember what I just said? These memories are proof that you are bound by me.]

[To put it another way - the area I protect can only carry the memories of the same group of people. For this group of people, the original stigmata are passed down in their blood, and therefore they are deeply cursed by the source of history.]

[Here, those countless generations of conscious or unconscious, active or passive memories. Because they share this extremely special bloodline, they are spontaneously collected by me and added to this holy scar space called "Kaslana".]

The will of the Holy Mark Space slowly explained the principle of its existence.

As she spoke, Yulandel finally reacted belatedly.

[So you are saying... the memory just now can only come from the third party...]

[That's right - it's the child in my memory who was wrapped in Otto's soul steel and was receiving some kind of treatment. Recall everything you have seen here so far -]

[Dr. Mei's child, Kallen and her daughter, Theresa, Siegfried, and the child just now... - They have the same blood flowing in their bodies and the same holy marks sleeping in their bodies.]

The will of the Holy Scar Space spoke slowly.

As the will of the Holy Scar Space was told, the truth that had been buried for many years finally came to light.

[…And I, who am in the imaginary space, have become entangled with this holy scar space—with you—in some way…]

Youlan Daier thought along the lines of the clues and finally came to a conclusion she had never expected.

The memories of the Yulandel and Kaslana families all point to one fact...
