Watching the movie, Kiana slashes the Holy Grail at the beginning

【"...!"】

[Jiang Cheng could only watch that figure leave with mixed emotions... Hey, although it was not prudent to say this, but he did have the thought "Fortunately the alarm sounded at this time" just now. 】

[Bronya is a talented woman who is both a student and a member of the Valkyrie Force. 】

[Anyway, now she is heading to the battlefield - the purpose is to kill Herrschers like Raiden Mei. 】

【"........."】

[Jiang Cheng clenched his teeth vigorously. 】

[He can't stop Bronya.but--】

[At this moment, a dull-sounding voice came from the classroom door. 】

["...Dear students, an alert has been issued. Please take refuge in the underground shelter immediately."]

[Kiana, the physics teacher wearing white clothes and glasses, points in the direction of the corridor. 】

[The students swallowed and then walked to the corridor in order. 】

["Huh? Jiangcheng, where are you going?"]

[Thunder Meiyi looked at the actions of her classmates and tilted her head in confusion. 】

["Ah, ah... everyone needs to go to the shelter underneath the school."]

【"refuge?"】

["That's right. Anyway, let's explain it later. Let's go too, Raiden Mei."]

【"okay."】

[Raiden Meiyi looked at the unopened bento with reluctant eyes, but still stood up according to Jiang Cheng's instructions. 】

[Then, just when the two of them were about to follow their classmates and move towards the corridor...]

["...Jiang Cheng, you have to go this way."]

[Kiana grabs Jiang Cheng’s neck. 】

["Kiana? What do you mean by "go this way"..."]

["...Do you still have to ask? Of course we are going to Hyperion."]

[Kiana quietly answered Jiang Cheng’s question at a volume that other students could not hear. 】

["...The time is too close. Maybe you haven't come to a conclusion about what happens next. But...no, that's why, so I hope you can see it with your own eyes. Look at the Herrscher and the things related to it. situation."】

[Jiang Cheng swallowed his saliva to moisten his dry throat, and then gently clenched his fists. 】

["...I understand, let's go."]

[Kiana half-closed her sleepy eyes and nodded slightly.Then, after taking a look at the sight of all the students queuing up, he turned his head and looked towards the entrance. 】

["...Come on, move quickly. There is not much time left before the catastrophe occurs."]

["Yes...yes. Then - ah, Kiana. Raiden Mei...won't you take her with you?"]

[Glancing in the direction of Leiden Meiyi, Jiang Cheng said this. 】

[Speaking of Raiden Mei, she was looking with surprised eyes at her classmates who were lining up in a long line in the corridor and preparing to take refuge. 】

["...Ah, about that matter. Well, let me let Raiden Mei follow everyone to the shelter to take refuge."]

["Huh? Is this really okay?"]

["...Ahhh. Raiden Meiyi is almost the same as ordinary people when her power is sealed. Moreover, if she sees the battle between the Herrscher and the Valkyrie troops and reminds her of what happened to her, that will be troublesome. 】

["Didn't I say it before? As far as destiny is concerned, we will try our best to avoid letting Raiden Meiyi accumulate pressure."]

["No, but..."]

[Then, just when Jiang Cheng was about to reply, a high-pitched voice came from deep in the corridor. 】

["Hey, you! Echeng-san, Raiden Mei-san, and Kiana-sensei too! Please...please don't stay there! If you don't evacuate quickly, there will be danger!"]

[Jiangcheng’s mentor, Teacher Nasida, is shrugging her small shoulders and saying this in an anxious tone.The semantics of the sentence is a bit disjointed. 】

["...Well, if you get caught, you'll be in trouble. Let's go."]

[After Kiana looked around for a while, she headed towards the entrance. 】

["Uh, ah, wait-"]

[Although I am a little worried, there is nothing I can do about it.Jiangcheng muttered for a while and raked his hair randomly with his hands, then took Raiden Mei's hand and handed it to Teacher Nasida. 】

["Teacher, I leave it to you to take care of Raiden Mei."]

["Eh? Huh? Ah, okay... okay, of course."]

[Xiao Zhu, who was suddenly entrusted with taking care of Raiden Mei, opened her eyes wide in surprise and said, "Because...because I am a teacher!"]

[Then he nodded in agreement. 】

["Jiangcheng...?"]

[Thunder Meiyi seemed to feel a little uneasy and slowly frowned. 】

["Raiden Meiyi, listen! Follow the teacher to the shelter to take refuge."]

["Where is Jiangcheng? What should I do with Jiangcheng?"]

["Ah...I have something important to deal with. So you go over there first, okay?"]

["Ah!...Jiangcheng!"]

["Jiang Cheng and Teacher Kiana! Where are you going?"]

[Hearing the worried voices of the two people behind them, Jiang Cheng and Kiana ran outside the school building. 】

["——Ah, you two are here. The Herrscher will appear soon. Please Kiana to make preparations."]

[Jiang Cheng and Kiana had just arrived at the Hyperion bridge when they immediately heard these words from Theresa who was sitting in the captain's seat. 】

【"……Yes."】

[Kiana nodded slightly, turned up the hem of her white clothes, and sat in the seat in front of the console under the bridge. 】

【"--So……"】

[Then Theresa tilted her head slightly and asked Jiang Cheng, who was silent. 】

["I'm sorry that I can't give you too much time. But have you made a decision, Jiang Cheng?"]

[Jiang Cheng holds his breath.However, at this moment, a piercing siren sounded in the bridge. 】

["Fa...what happened?"]

["Confirmed to be a very powerful Honkai energy reaction. The Herrscher is here!"]

[Just as Jiang Cheng’s eyes widened in panic, the male crew member’s voice came from below the bridge. 】

[After Theresa heard this, she snapped her fingers. 】

["OK, switch the main screen to the screen where the appearance is predicted."]

[After Teresa gave the order, the main screen immediately started playing a video overlooking the street. 】

【It is a big road with many shops lined up one after another.Naturally, there were no souls in sight on the streets and it looked like a ghost town. 】

[The center of the picture suddenly begins to distort. 】

【"Huh……?"】

[For a moment, I thought there was a problem with the screen playing the video—but, that was not the case. 】

[But space. 】

[In the originally empty space, ripples suddenly appeared like a stone dropped on the water. 】

["Then...what is that..."]

["Eh? Haven't Jiang Cheng seen it?"]

[At the same time Theresa said these words, the distortion of the space gradually expanded——]

[Tiny spots of light seem to begin to appear on the screen.At this moment, with the sound of explosion, the screen turned into white. 】

【"——!"】

[Although he understood that it was just a picture, Jiang Cheng still unconsciously covered his face with his arms. 】

[Then, after a few seconds, Jiang Cheng opened his eyes while suppressing his violently beating heartbeat.The picture already reflected a completely different scene from just now. 】

[A big hole opened in the street. 】

[It can only be described in this way. 】

[Until just now, there were still many buildings standing on both sides of the main road.However, part of the road has now been cut into a shallow window-level foundation! �

[The shops, street lamps, telephone poles, and even the asphalt pavement that should have existed in that place disappeared without a trace. 】

[Then, perhaps affected by the aftermath of the explosion, the surroundings also showed a scene like that after a strong typhoon. 】

[This scene is very similar to the place where I met Raiden Mei about a month ago. 】

[In other words, the current situation is——]

【"Collapse...!"】

[Jiang Cheng said this with a trembling voice.Teresa nodded and replied "Yes". 】

[Although I often see ruined streets, this is the first time Jiangcheng witnessed an explosion. 】

[The palms of my hands are wet with sweat. 】

[The situation that I originally tried to explain with my brain was finally fully understood through actual experience. 】

[The streets and the space in which people live were all destroyed in an instant - that... terrible thing. 】

129. Xier: What are you doing?

["Oh, but this explosion is considered a small scale."]

[Jiang Cheng held his forehead in silence. 】

[The explosion just now is considered a small scale? 】

[For a moment, Jiang Cheng couldn't understand what Theresa and the others said, but he immediately reconsidered. 】

【It’s no wonder.Because the scale of the collapse just now was only a few dozen meters at best.For them, the damage was indeed minor. 】

[Of course...even if the brain understands, the heart cannot calm down. 】

["Wait a moment - can you enlarge the screen?"]

[Theresa gives instructions to the crew below the bridge. 】

[So, the crew immediately pushed forward the image and quickly approached the pothole formed in the center of the street. 】

[Then, as the camera zooms closer and closer, changes begin to occur in the picture. 】

【"……rain?"】

[Jiang Cheng murmured softly. 】

【Yes.Just as the picture suddenly darkened, it started to rain sparsely. 】

[But—not long after, Jiang Cheng stopped paying attention to this change. 】

[Because in the center of the ground that looked like a crater dug into a meteorite, the figure of a petite girl was discovered. 】

[The shock as if my heart was violently grabbed by someone flows through my body. 】

[The figure of a girl stands alone in the center of the enlarged screen.And—Jiang Cheng had seen her before. 】

【"That is……"】

[Around thirteen or fourteen years old, right?Wearing a blue and white dress, she looks like a princess from a fairy tale. 】

[Then, she held a... huge scythe in her left hand. 】

[As long as Jiang Cheng’s eyes and brain are normal, it is absolutely impossible to recognize the wrong person. 】

[She is—the girl Jiang Cheng met on his way home from school yesterday. 】

["...? What's wrong with you, Jiang Cheng?"]
