Collapse, I save everything alone

"By the way, I've been listening to you, Mingyu, talk about your life in Saint Freya. I haven't told you about myself yet, right?"

The girl closed her eyes, rested her forehead against his chin, and spoke softly.

"Well, go ahead. I'm also a little curious about Wendy's past."

In the original timeline, there was very little information about Wendy's "Poem of the Wind" incident, and Wendy lost her life and completely left the stage afterwards, so he knew very little about the girl's past.

So Wendy began to talk about her past.

"…I am a native of New Zealand. I saw the recruitment advertisement of Tianming a few years ago and joined with the attitude of giving it a try."

Because of her outstanding talent in Honkai energy, she was recruited on the spot and was included in the Valkyrie team.

"At that time, the Valkyrie in charge of recruitment asked me where I wanted to go for relevant studies and training. I could go to the Oceania branch or to St. Freya Academy in the Far East. I had to choose one of the two."

The girl paused and smiled:

"I thought about it for a long time, and finally decided to go to St. Freya Academy... As for the result, I didn't regret it."

In fact, generally speaking, most people would choose a place closer to home so that they can go back home to visit often.

The years at St. Freya Academy were the happiest time for her as a Valkyrie. She also grew very fast there, quickly reaching the level of an A-class Valkyrie and completing her graduation.

After that, I returned to New Zealand to start my official work.

Looking back, that time is the girl’s most precious memory.

Her daily life is not boring, and being able to protect people's lives is what she considers to be most proud of.

"...My dream is to be as free as the wind and to be able to reach any corner of the world, so that I can see more scenery."

This was one of the reasons why she chose to travel a long distance to the Far East for Valkyrie training.

Then, the girl lowered her head again, looked at her legs which were almost numb, and smiled bitterly:

"It's a pity that I can't even go far away now..."

The gap between ideal and reality is so huge.

Mingyu also looked at her legs and asked softly:

"Does it hurt?"

He had also tried to touch the Herrscher's core and roughly knew what it felt like to be corroded by Honkai energy.

"Yeah, it hurts all the time."

The girl answered this heartbreaking fact frankly.

The desire gem had never stopped causing her physical pain since the moment it was implanted in her legs, and the pain was gradually getting deeper and more painful.

I endured this pain alone for three years, but I was still able to face others with a smile...

This ability to endure and persistence is truly admirable.

Mingyu can now understand why Wendy turned completely evil in the end and chose to turn around and attack Tianming.

——Three years of persistence did not bring any hope of returning to normal. All I could see was fate’s neglect and indifference towards me.

Under such circumstances, it is understandable that he would choose to accept the power of the Herrscher and completely fall.

After all, does Otto really not have the technology to extract the Herrscher core?

According to the development on the original timeline, even that guy Cocolia could safely remove the Gem of Desire from Wendy's body and then implant it into the Heavenly Father for energy. It is impossible that Otto, who controls all the treasures of the Void, does not have the relevant technology.

He probably just didn't care about Wendy's life or death. No, maybe that guy was even looking forward to the birth of the Herrscher of Wind to collect more data about herrscher...

"Well, I'm a little tired..."

The girl suddenly said tiredly.

Although she was pushed or carried by Mingyu the whole time, she was extremely weak and even so had reached the limit of her energy. She felt sleepy uncontrollably.

"Do you want to go back?"

"Can we go a little later? The scenery here is so beautiful, I'm a little reluctant to leave..."

Wendy murmured.

"Well, as you wish."

As they were talking, a meteor suddenly streaked across the night sky, flashing in the pitch-black night.

"It's a shooting star—"

The girl exclaimed.

"How about making a wish?"

Mingyu said with a smile.

"……Um."

The girl closed her eyes and prayed softly once again as usual:

"...I hope I can recover my health."

Chapter 195 A Miracle for You

"You want to recover your health... maybe it will be possible."

For Wendy, this is probably a luxury.

But Mingyu not only intends to restore her health, but also to create more miracles on top of that.

He looked towards the bottom of the cliff and saw a purple-haired girl slowly floating up from the bottom of the cliff.

"Xilin, you're here."

"Ah."

The girl floated near him and shook the bottle of serum in her hand.

——According to Mingyu's request, Xilin left Yaezakura's stigmata space and went to the world bubble where he placed the Serenity Gem and HSN-b46 serum, and took the serum from there and brought it back to the original world.

"Can such a small thing save her?"

“Although it’s not all, it’s an essential part.”

Mingyu nodded.

The girl said "oh", looked carefully at the girl in Mingyu's arms for a few seconds, and said:

"Come to think of it... He does look a bit like Xi'er."

Well, it's just like a color-changed version of Seele, changing from blue-black to cyan-black.

"Yeah, I think so too."

Mingyu smiled and replied:

"And your personalities are somewhat similar, maybe you can become good friends."

“…I don’t plan on becoming friends with her.”

The girl said somewhat arrogantly.

However, when she saw the bandages wrapped around Wendy's hands and feet, her eyes became somewhat touched again.

The scene was so touching that Wendy's current appearance reminded her of herself.

——She recalled her past, when she was tortured in the Tower of Babel, she was also like this, with needle holes and wounds all over her body, and she had to wrap them up with bandages...

The girl sighed, handed the serum to Mingyu, and asked:

"What's next?"

Although she promised Mingyu that she would come to help, she was not quite sure how to do it or what she needed to do.

Mingyu took the serum, held it up, and looked at it in the moonlight. The faint light shone through the glass cover onto the serum, which was extremely bright red.

"This thing... always feels a bit unlucky."

Seeing Mingyu examining the serum, Xilin floated a little further away, staring at it with some fear.

She already felt a little uncomfortable when she held it. The thing in this bottle... gave her the same feeling as the [Holy Blood Liberation] that Cecilia had used on her. It was a natural enemy that could target her.

"Well, this is a serum that can completely and temporarily eliminate Honkai energy. It will work even on you, Sirin."

Mingyu explained with a smile.

Sure enough, it is this function!

"I will inject it into Wendy's body to temporarily eliminate the influence of the gem. As for what happens next, I'll have to ask for your help, Xilin."

Without further ado, Mingyu adjusted the position of the girl in his arms and injected the HSN-b46 serum into her body.

………………

After a while.

“Wow, here…”

The purple-haired girl landed on a meadow. The scenery here immediately attracted her: the blue sky and white clouds were so beautiful.

"Meow~"

A pure white kitten then landed on Xilin's shoulder and called softly.

In order to carry out the next operation, he used Yu Duchen to bring Xilin's consciousness into Wendy's spiritual space.

This is something that can be easily achieved if she has no subjective resistance.

"…Why are you a cat, Mingyu?"

The purple-haired girl curiously picked up the kitten with both hands and held it in front of her eyes to admire it.

"Because it becomes second nature? Rin also told you that I once turned into a kitten to get close to her."

Mingyu explained casually.

Of course, the real reason why he always chose to appear in Wendy's mental space in the form of a kitten was that he didn't want the girl to have the impression that he had interfered in anything after waking up from her dream.

"Hmm... Is that the origin of the name [Xiao Xiao Bai]? It is indeed quite cute."

Xilin stared at the kitten that Mingyu transformed into. The more she looked, the more she liked it. She simply held it in her arms and played with it.

"……Meow?"

Cute kittens are really a special attack on girls...

"That's it, let's go and help Wendy."

The purple-haired girl floated forward holding Mingyu.

In front, the dark-haired girl was lying on the grass with her eyes closed, sleeping there.

Because of fatigue and the effects of the serum, she fell into a deep sleep and did not even dream. In her spiritual world, she was like a sleeping beauty.

Of course, this time there was no overwhelming darkness emerging to try to erode her body and mind. The girl was briefly freed from pain, and even her expression became much softer when she slept.

Xilin sat down next to Wendy, put Mingyu on her lap, and stroked its fur while asking:

"What should I do now?"

"Well...you can try to call upon the gem."

Mingyu suggested.

He could only use Yu Duchen to help Wendy resist the erosion of the gems, but he couldn't have any effect on the gems.

Once the dark will hid back into the gem, there would be nothing he could do.

But as the "original owner" who desires the gem, Xilin should be able to call it out directly.

"Then let me try..."

The girl stretched out a hand, pointed at the empty air in front of her, and said seriously:
