Honkai, they all became my stigmata

"... What Bronya has done is far from enough. I heard Dr. Tesla mention that you were once able to create an entire air fleet out of thin air with the power of the Herrscher of Reason."

The silver-haired girl shook her head modestly.

"Hehe, she even told you about this, but in fact, it's just the result of my years of practice. Your Honkai adaptability is far better than mine. In time, you will be able to do the same matter."

"By the way, Mr. Walter..."

The silver-haired girl thought about it, and told the other party about the scene in her sleep these days and about the blue-haired young man.

"...You guessed right, Bronya, that is the real first Herrscher of Law, Joyce."

"But why did I see this? See everything related to him and the first Honkai?"

the girl asked puzzled.

"That's because you are constantly using and practicing the power of the Herrscher of Reason, the core of the Herrscher, which is constantly merging with your body-you will also see the afterimage of consciousness remaining in it."

Lao Yang explained in a deep voice.

Just like the footprints left on the semi-dry concrete floor, the latecomers can naturally see the footprints of the pioneers.

"So...will the same phenomenon happen to the squad leader, Kiana, Mei, and Chen Yu?"

Bronya said thoughtfully.

To be precise, there should be Anna the Herrscher of Ice.

It's just that the anti-entropy people know relatively little about her, and Bronya didn't specifically mention her name.

"This is indeed something that everyone with a Herrscher core will experience, but... perhaps it will be more obvious only in you and Qiyana."

"...Is it because Bronya and Kiyana are not [the first generation]?"

The girl pondered for a moment and thought of the reason.

As native Herrschers, Mei, Chen Yu, Fu Hua, and Anna are unlikely to be disturbed by this kind of spiritual imprint from others.

"Yes, Not Bad."

Lao Yang nodded slightly.

"I once fought against the first Herrscher of the Sky. She was a girl who ushered in a tragic fate due to the experiment of destiny. As her successor, Kiyana must often recall those scenes in her dreams—— Although in a sense she didn't experience it herself."

And this kind of thing... that idiot never said it once.

"But for the Herrscher of Reason, this afterimage of consciousness is even more special."

The anti-entropy lord explained softly.

"You mean... the core consciousness is not unique to [Walter Joyce]?"

"That's right, the core is engraved with the thoughts of 30 people who lost their lives in the first collapse."

"..."

When Bronya heard this astonishing fact, she didn't know what to say for a moment.

"In other words, the thoughts of 30 people have condensed into such a unique Herrscher core."

"In other words, if Bronya wants to activate the full power of Herrscher's core...does she need to be recognized by the 30 will?"

She is still aware of the fact that her qualifications as a lawyer are limited.

After all, in this respect, her talent is indeed far inferior to Mei and Qiyana.

"Well, even for me, it is only in a few cases that I can get their full recognition and fully exert my core strength in a short period of time. I call this state [spiritual attunement]."

"...What kind of power is that?"

Bronya asked curiously.

"For me and you, to exercise the ability of the Herrscher of Reason, you need to [understand] first, and then [reappear]."

After a pause, Lao Yang continued:

"However, for a complete Herrscher of Reason, he can directly [reappear] without [understanding]."

When facing the dangerous Kevin in the Quantum Sea, he once used the power of his core to reconstruct his physical body-this is something that cannot be done under normal circumstances. After all, who can completely understand his own body? What about every cell?

It was also with the help of the completely liberated power of the Herrscher of Reason that he returned from the near-death situation again and again, completing the feat of "sit-ups".

"I see……"

"Don't worry, Bronya, with your ability and heart, you will be able to reach that level one day."

................................................

When the sun sets completely.

Bronya, who originally planned to return to the base with the idiot Qiyana, received an urgent notice from Dr. Tesla together.

"...the core of the Herrscher of Flame?"

The white-haired girl on the side couldn't help but make a sound in surprise.

Since the end of the Battle of the Queen's Advent, the Herrscher Core that was originally inlaid on the Red Knight was naturally sealed up in the anti-entropy base following Ji Zi's return.

Of course, in theory, Qiyana, who inherited Sirin's DNA, naturally has the potential to reaccommodate this plague gem in her body, but before the Battle of Antarctica, her state could only be said to be barely balanced , there is no room to continue to bear the load of another gem.

"In other words, the [Herrscher of Domination] that has been silent for a long time has indeed begun to act."

The silver-haired girl said firmly, but she was a little puzzled immediately:

"But only a few people should know where the plague gem is stored. How could it be..."

Almost only the high-level anti-entropy and Saint Freya know about this matter.

No, after all, anti-entropy has many people with mixed eyes. If the other party can really sneak into people's hearts or information, it is not difficult to analyze that the core is in the hands of anti-entropy.

In addition, if the opponent still has the ability to simply sense the location of Herrscher's core...

Thinking of this, the two girls decided to take immediate action.

"Qiana, your mobility is good enough, you go to inform other people, Bronya will go to Dr. Tesla to meet her to see the situation first. Wait for everyone to get together first, share information, and then make a decision. "

The white-haired girl nodded, didn't say much, just snapped her fingers lightly, and two portals appeared in front of the two of them.

The two quickly jumped into the portal and started their respective actions.

Regardless of Kiyana's side, through the portal, Bronya immediately came to the small room where the core of the Herrscher of Fire was stored, and Dr. Tesla was here at the moment.

"...By the way, send a message to Chen Yu as well, um, the same goes for Tianming."

Thinking so, Bronya opened the communication interface and was about to send a message.

At this moment, Qiyana happened to send a message through the communicator, and on the other end of the message was a very anxious voice:

"Bronya, Xier... Xier is also missing!"

Chapter 19

Seele Proposal and the Opening of the Play

Salt Lake City base, early morning.

With the gentle ringing of the alarm clock, the girl in the dream also opened her eyes in a daze, reached out and pressed the alarm clock beside the bed.

"Hmph, Xi'er, you woke up quite early today."

Another girl who looked almost exactly like her said regretfully.

Of course, although they are almost the same in appearance, there are still certain differences between them-obviously, the girl who is completing the action of "getting up" has her own entity, and the girl who defies the gravity of the earth and floats bored in the air The young girl is like an illusory spirit body, without a real body.

In terms of character, one is weaker, while the other's tone is more playful and casual.

"A-Isn't it because you made a caterpillar next to your pillow last time to wake Xier up..."

The weak girl said softly.

—that was what she was most afraid of.

"Oh, you clearly know that Xier hates that thing the most."

As a result, although she woke up because of this, as many as four or more people came to ask what happened because of the violent screams.

So, since then, she has made a firm decision to be a good child who gets up early and on time, and cannot rely on others—not even her other self.

"Okay, okay, but you don't have to get up so early, do you? It's not impossible to sleep a little longer."

The hope of playing a prank fell through, Hei Xi glanced at the alarm clock beside the bed, it was [-]:[-].

Anyway, this time is a bit too early.

She felt that Xier should rest more.

And Xi'er had already changed her clothes and sat in front of the dressing table. She shook her head lightly and said:

"After the last battle, Xier has discovered the gap between herself and the others. Because of this, Xier decided to train harder and catch up with them as soon as possible."

"I think that this should not be due to pure hard work..."

Hexi complained.

Seele was obviously talking about the battle in Antarctica. Although that crisis was resolved perfectly, as one of the participants, she naturally noticed the gap between herself and others.

Um, but, it's no wonder Xi'er, after all, the other girls count as one, but they are all Herrscher—

"Besides, if you really encounter any troublesome enemies, can you just let me deal with them?"

Hexi said indifferently.

Xi'er has not yet been able to control all the power of this body, but she is different, she can, so, as long as she is allowed to protect Xi'er.

She would tear anyone who dared to hurt Seele to shreds, making them regret trying to harm the other self she valued most.

"However, Xi'er can't always hide under your protection..."

Xier said weakly.

"...?"

Hei Xi's heart tightened, and he quickly pretended not to care and asked:

"Why, do you think you don't need me after having your sister Bronya and brother Chen Yu? Or do you want to rely on Qiyana and Mei?"

After the long drift in the quantum sea ended, they naturally returned to the anti-entropy base with Bronya.

There are many old acquaintances here, such as everyone from the Cocolia Orphanage, and of course, more are new and unfamiliar companions.

But in any case, the time when the two drifted together is over, and Xier will inevitably reconnect with other people.

Hei Xi knew that this was a good thing for Xi'er, which meant that she was reintegrating into this society, and the people here were quite friendly, and they were very friendly to Xi'er, but she just didn't know why she couldn't be happy.

Sometimes, seeing Xi'er happily communicating with other people, she would feel an uncontrollable fire rising in her heart.

"No, it's not like that."

The girl's face reflected in the vanity mirror shook slightly, and explained:

"You always say that you want to fight for Xier for Xier's good, to avoid hurting Xier... But, the opposite is also the same, you will worry about Xier, of course Xier will also worry about you, and of course Xier will also worry about you. I'm afraid you'll get hurt."

"..."

The other self in her heart didn't speak for a while, and the girl continued:

"Xie'er also wants to become as strong as you, strong enough to protect you and others."

"Oh, forget it, forget it, I really lost to you, a naive idiot, pack up and go out, I will slowly teach you how to use a scythe to fight - the skill you use with a sickle now, really Not proficient."

Although there was some urging voice, but for some reason the other party sounded a little happy.

"Yeah, I've packed it up."

After all, she was born in an orphanage, so she was always very concise and quick when it came to dressing up.

The girl got up slightly, and was about to open the door to meet her sister Bronya, but as if she remembered something, she briskly asked another girl in her heart:

"By the way, the other me, what did you think of the suggestion I gave you earlier?"

"Huh? Which suggestion?"

The girl's silly and innocent fantasies are more than 01:30, and Hei Xi didn't know which one she was talking about for a while.

"That's the proposal that allows you to have a body of your own, and then we can live together in a fair and honest manner."
