Honkai, they all became my stigmata

Fu Hua smiled lightly.

"The Second Herrscher... I have observed her for a long time in the past three years. She still retains her humanity, and has not been reduced to a monster that only knows how to slaughter."

Such a human Herrscher, at least, shouldn't just die in Otto's hands like this.

Just like she secretly helped First Herrscher Walter Joyce decades ago, she and Otto have never been of the same mind.

Regarding Herrscher...she naturally has her own set of principles, but fortunately, she has not forgotten some precious memories.

If it is a monster that destroys wantonly and is an enemy of human beings, she will naturally take action to eradicate it, but if it is the opposite...she should be given help to survive.

"I once fought against that girl named Xilin, and peeked into her mind with Yu Duchen, so I probably know something about her past."

Of course, Fu Hua also quietly used Yu Duchen to erase the memory of Xilin fighting her afterwards.

"Although I don't know what method you used to return, I think you are indeed the boy who led her out of the Tower of Babylon three years ago."

"……Um."

"If you die, that girl may not be able to maintain her [humanity]."

Chen Yu is the cornerstone of her humanity. If Chen Yu dies here... what will happen to her is hard to say.

In the worst case, it is possible to completely fall into the embrace of Honkai and start an indiscriminate attack.

"If there is a chance, I certainly hope to maintain her humanity, and this... has nothing to do with you."

This was Fu Hua's judgment, and also the reason why she would help Chen Yu.

"...I thought you'd be at least a little surprised by my reappearance."

"It's not a rare thing to come back from the dead."

Fu Hua said lightly.

From her point of view, she probably just thinks that Chen Yu has some special survival skills. After all, there are quite a lot of undead who died and lived in this world, whether it is the civilization of the past or the current era.

Well, for Fu Hua, who is almost immortal, this is really not surprising...

"I have stored too many things in my mind, and many things have been forgotten. Maybe we have met before, hehe."

Fu Hua shrugged.

"In short, Otto helped me hundreds of years ago, so I will also [help] him. After all, destiny is still the main force for this civilization to fight against collapse."

After a pause, Fu Hua continued.

"But one size fits all, while [helping] him, I will also [stop] him from doing certain things from a personal perspective."

For example now——

"Those A-rank Valkyries will be tired of dealing with the 'reinforcements' you called. If you want to rescue that girl, you have to take advantage of it now."

Fu Hua looked in the direction of the birdcage.

She could feel that the bodies of Cecilia and Otto were there. Generally speaking, it was not a simple matter to try to get people from these two hands.

"...I have to hurry back too."

"You know that the most powerful Valkyrie has already gone back to deal with the Second Herrscher, but you still want to wade into the muddy water again?"

Fu Hua walked slowly on the snowy ground, step by step, approaching Chen Yu.

"You have been defeated by her once, you should understand the gap between you and her. Or, are you ready to sacrifice here from the beginning?"

"……Um."

He replied.

He was indeed already prepared for the possibility of facing the S-class if he was delayed by his life.

"The experience of facing an almost invincible enemy, I think you have also experienced it."

Chen Yu looked at Fu Hua and said.

"It's not a good sign to despise your own life..."

Fu Hua shook his head.

"By the way, let me give you a feather, maybe it can help you."

A crimson feather floated out of her hand, landed on Chen Yu's hand, and sank into his body.

"Thank you, then I will... go."

Now that Fu Hua has read Xilin's memory, Chen Yu doesn't have to hide anything from her anymore.

After releasing the power of Che Che's stigmata, Chen Yu's figure changed rapidly, transforming from a human into a chariot-level Honkai beast.In this form, his ability to move is much faster than in human form.

He was able to rush back to the birdcage as fast as he could. Since Sirin hadn't come back for so long, the car must have overturned.

Chen Yu let out a low growl, then let go of her feet and ran towards the birdcage.

"Che Che Che Cha Che, Che Che!" ("There will be a period later, Shangxian!")

Looking at Chen Yu who quickly disappeared into the wind and snow, Fu Hua stopped and pondered for a long time, and finally smiled with relief.

"...A [Hersencher] with human nature, she really did a great thing."

==========

Fu Hua's attitude here refers to her behavior in the visual novel "Anti-Entropy Origin". I reckon that Fu Hua should still remember something about Aimen before amnesia, so he chose to help Joyce in the dark. It's the same here as Otto.

Chapter 48

Car, car, car! Elbow, Sirin!

In the birdcage.

Sirin, who was incapacitated by Shaniat's holy blood, knelt on the ground, and a few pieces of mimetic feather dust floated beside her.

Although she fell asleep under Yu Duchen's mental hypnosis, the two people around her were in a worse state than she who was simply powerless and knelt on the ground.

Although he received an oracle from the gods to guide the future, Otto's state at this moment is really not good.

After returning to reality, he couldn't help bending over and covering his head because of the mental pain.The huge amount of knowledge given by the gods almost crushed his spirit. The knowledge poured into his brain like a tide, and then disappeared because human wisdom could not carry so many truths.

In the end, only he cared about and remembered the most profound revelation.

Now he is even a bit reluctant to stand, but he must let the oracle recorded in this soul steel body be able to return to the Destiny Headquarters in its entirety, and there must be no mistakes.

"My lord, are you alright?"

Not to mention Cecilia on the side, the price of the liberation of the Holy Blood is extremely heavy. In order to temporarily neutralize the Houkai energy on the Second Herrscher, she almost killed a thousand enemies and damaged herself by eight hundred, but for the time being There is also room for being able to worry about others.

"……I'm very good."

After the initial painful experience, Otto managed to stand up.

"The effect of [Holy Blood] neutralizing Houkai energy is only temporary after all. For the sake of our safety, take back the core of the Second Herrscher, Cecilia."

Originally, he could do this by himself, but for some reason, after contacting that god in the consciousness of the Second Herrscher, Void Ten Thousand Zang suddenly became unusable.

In other words, the current soul steel body has completely lost its ability to fight, apart from being barely able to move.

Fortunately, the pseudo-Yu Duchen created before was still working, and the poor girl was still immersed in the illusion, enough for him to order Cecilia to deal with the Second Herrscher before going back.

"But……"

Cecilia said hesitantly.

Taking away the Herrscher's core is tantamount to depriving the other party's life.

If it was just to incapacitate the Second Herrscher, she could release the Holy Blood Liberation that would endanger her life without hesitation, but if she wanted to impale this weak girl who had no power to restrain her, she would really……

"This is an order, Cecilia."

Otto emphasized the word "order".

"If the Second Herrscher recovers, not only you and me, but the entire destiny will sink under her feet and bear her wrath."

Ever since he was cheated by Rhianna's active betrayal in the Battle of New York that year, he no longer simply relied on physical and physical usurpation to control the Valkyries under him, but improved the training mechanism of Destiny, and turned to spiritual training. To induce these fighters.

They may be kind and upright, but the soldiers who have been immersed in the cultural atmosphere of destiny for a long time may gradually forget the idea of ​​​​resisting orders under Otto's deliberate induction.

"Everything we do is to fight against Honkai—"

Among them, Cecilia, who grew up in the destiny and was even carefully cultivated by his bishop, the saint of Shaniat, has been subtly controlled by the destiny.

For her, resisting the order from the destiny should be an option that did not exist from the beginning.

"..."

Sure enough, after Cecilia's body trembled slightly, she followed Otto's order and acted.

Holding up the black abyss and white flowers, she came to Sirin.

"Che Che Cha Che—!" ("Keep people under the gun—!")

At this moment, a chariot-level Honkai beast broke through the road that had been destroyed by Sirin, and rushed straight towards Sirin and Cecilia.

"...Honkai Beast?"

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

in spiritual space.

The girl's question was answered in front of another girl.

"Thank you, God..."

Sirin gratefully thanked the gods, although there were still many things she could not understand in the answers given to her by the gods.

"However, how can I get out of here..."

Because of Cecilia's holy blood, she can no longer drive the power of the Herrscher for the time being, and it is not easy to escape from the illusion by her own strength.

"..."

Sirin remembered the magic spell Cecilia taught her during the day, did it really work?

...Anyway, this is her spiritual space, and if she secretly recites a spell here, it shouldn't be known by others.

"Ich, liebe, dich..."

Thinking so, the girl barely imitated Cecilia's voice and recited the spell.

"..."

What, it really is a useless spell...

And the girl in the cage behind her showed an imperceptible smile, and then, this blank space began to disappear——

"Hey, does it really work..."

In reality, Chen Yu skipped over the two people who were not in good condition, and rushed straight to Xilin.

Although I don't know what happened here, judging from the unstable state of the three auras in front of me, it is a situation where all three losers, and Chen Yu can take advantage of it.

The genuine Yu Duchen given by Fu Hua floated out of his body, neutralizing the effect of the mimic Yu Duchen, helping him to release the illusion that the girl was in, allowing her consciousness to return to reality.

Sirin's pupils regained a gleam of brilliance, and what caught her eyes was a huge and familiar Honkai Beast.

"dust……"

"Car!" ("Elbow!")

Before the girl who came back to her senses could call out his name, Chen Yu grabbed the clothes, held them in her mouth, and ran away with her legs.

"Eh--"

In short, the dazed little Xilin was swaggered away by Chen Yu.

"...Lord Bishop, do you want to pursue?"

Watching the orcs gradually go away, Cecilia asked aloud just now.

She could have stopped it, but she deliberately let it save Sirin.

"No, forget it, I've already got a satisfactory answer from the Second Herrscher... just let her go, and your condition is really not that good, is it?"

Otto shook his head.

The core of the Second Herrscher is not as important as saving Kallen. Now Otto just wants to go back to the headquarters of Destiny, and he doesn't want to make any deviations before that.
