Honkai Impact 3, but I’m Amamiya Ren!

The purple thunder that fell from the sky and the mighty lightning that suddenly erupted from the bottom of the building debris complemented each other, but in an instant, the huge amount of building debris was decomposed into atomic state and disappeared.

The piled-up building debris were decomposed and dissipated by the power of thunder, and the figure of Shadow Mei, who looked like a red evil ghost warrior, appeared again in front of Amamiya Ren and Raiden Mei.

Shadow Mei was standing in a hunched posture, and the black and white undergarment she was wearing was tattered due to Amamiya Ren's attack, revealing the delicate skin of the girl underneath.

Being suppressed from all sides by Amamiya Ren who had exerted her full strength, Shadow Mei was now covered in wounds, and the rapid consumption of energy made her gasp for breath.

The originally cold and arrogant Shadow Mei could no longer hide her embarrassed and miserable image.

"You have usurped so much of my power without making any noise. You have done a great job, Raiden Mei!"

Shadow Mei raised her hand to wipe the dust off her pretty face. Her expression was slightly distorted, and she glared at Raiden Mei who was standing next to Amamiya Ren with gritted teeth.

Compared to Amamiya Ren who completely defeated her in a head-on battle, what made Shadow Mei most unhappy and angry was Raiden Mei who suddenly stabbed her in the back at the critical moment and should have completely shattered her defenses and made her unable to recover.

"I am no longer the weak and helpless Mei Raiden who only relied on others! I have found a partner who will choose to support me no matter what... From now on, I will fight for myself, and also devote my strength to my partners, and complete everything I can!"

Mei Raiden slowly raised her hand to cover her chest, feeling the intense emotions surging in her chest. She gently turned her head and looked at Ren Amamiya beside her. A firm look emerged in her beautiful eyes like purple gemstones.

Mei Raiden had feared countless times that Amamiya Ren would abandon her after knowing her true self, leaving her alone and curled up there.

Therefore, when Shadow Mei revealed all her ugly and dirty inner thoughts in front of Amamiya Ren, the person she cared about the most, Raiden Mei's psychological defenses were completely collapsed in an instant.

Raiden Mei, who was caught off guard, had all her power taken away by Shadow Mei, causing Shadow Mei to grow to her complete form in an instant.

But after her true self was analyzed in front of Amamiya Ren, all the dark thoughts were spoken out by Shadow Mei and told to Amamiya Ren personally.

However, Amamiya Ren had no intention of abandoning himself, nor did he show any signs of being angry because of the dark thoughts in his heart. He just silently tolerated and comforted himself.

After the most feared thing happened, the situation did not move towards the most terrible future that I had expected.

After truly knowing Amamiya Ren's reaction and receiving comfort from Amamiya Ren and Hato respectively, Raiden Mei has already made up her mind. She stood up again and was determined to surpass her past self and overcome the trial before her.

"Nice eyes, try to summon your personality mask. If it's Mei-senpai now, she should be able to summon her own personality mask."

Amemiya Ren sensed the power of belief in Raiden Mei's eyes. He nodded approvingly and then gave Raiden Mei some advice.

Normally, only by defeating one's own shadow can a personality mask be transformed from the shadow.

But Mei Raiden's situation is obviously more special. She awakened the incomplete power of her personality mask while the shadow still existed.

Although it is an incomplete awakening, since she has already awakened, Mei Raiden naturally also possesses the power of the personality mask.

It's just that before Shadow Mei is completely defeated, the power of the personality mask awakened by Raiden Mei in an incomplete state will be much weaker than the normal personality mask.

Since Mei Raiden already has the ability to fight, Amamiya Ren will naturally not let her just stand there and watch. Such a meaningful task as defeating the shadow in her heart must of course involve Mei Raiden herself.

It doesn't matter even if Mei Raiden's incompletely awakened personality mask is very weak. With Ren Amamiya's strength, he is fully confident that he can take good care of Mei Raiden and her new personality mask.

"I understand! Come out, my personality mask!!"

Mei Raiden raised her slender white hand and took off the black devil mask that was worn diagonally on her forehead. She imitated the action of Amamiya Ren that she kept recalling in her mind and suddenly threw the black devil mask in her hand out.

While throwing the black evil spirit mask at Shadow Mei, Raiden Mei slowly closed her eyes.

Through the spring water taken from the Sea of ​​Power, she could clearly sense that something dormant in the palace was being born and awakening rapidly, and that individual with powerful strength was completely subordinate to her and could obey any of her commands.

Obviously, this is what Amamiya Ren said, the personality mask of her, Raiden Mei.

The black demon mask thrown by Raiden Mei kept spinning in the air, and brilliant thunder suddenly shot out from the dark clouds covering the sky of the palace. The thunder hit the black mask with incredible precision, turning it into a black and purple lightning snake that dissipated in mid-air.

With her eyes tightly closed, Mei Raiden raised her slender palm straight up, and where her fingertips were pointing, in the sky covered by thick dark clouds, a huge black and purple light cocoon with an astonishing presence suddenly appeared.

The black and purple light cocoon was gently fluttering, just like Raiden Mei's passionate heartbeat, which was constantly accelerating, and the two were in perfect sync.

"You actually took away all my followers... Damn it!!"

Shadow Mei frowned unhappily.

Just like the water in a swimming pool with the plug pulled out, the power in her body continued to flow towards Raiden Mei's side.

Shadow Mei's power was constantly weakening, and even the control over her yet-to-be-born subordinate Honkai Beast was taken away by Raiden Mei.

"The time to wake up has come—Kurigara!!!"

Mei Raiden suddenly opened her eyes, and as she called out the name, the huge black and purple cocoon of light above the sky suddenly released a huge amount of red lightning from its inside, and the red thunder completely tore the huge cocoon of light apart.

A ferocious dragon with a mighty crimson body and extremely large size suddenly flew out from the huge cocoon of light. The crimson dragon hovered in the air above Raiden Mei with great momentum. A pair of magnificent crimson dragon wings were raised high, casting a terrifying shadow on the ground.

The red-black evil dragon named Kurikara had deep red lightning wrapped around its body, and an extremely powerful and violent aura emanated from its body. It opened its bloody mouth and let out a deafening dragon roar. The lightning and air currents surged together, causing Raiden Mei's long black and purple hair on the ground below to sway in the wind.

"Kurigara, is this Mei-senpai's personality mask? Although it's not in a fully awakened state, it's much stronger than I expected."

Looking at the red-black evil dragon hovering in the sky, emitting a majestic aura, Amamiya Lian raised her eyebrows slightly in surprise.

Although not as powerful as a fully awakened personality mask, even in an incomplete awakening state, Raiden Mei's Kurigara possesses considerable strength.

"As expected of Joker, you even anticipated this. Miss Mei is also very good. You have successfully defeated your own shadow and seized the power of the personality mask into your own hands!"

Hata activated her ability to read information targeting Kurikara in the sky. After detecting Kurikara's current level of strength, she couldn't help but raise her slender hands and applaud gently, sincerely praising Amamiya Ren and Raiden Mei.

If you want to engage in a tug-of-war with Shadow Mei, who has the Herrscher personality, to seize the Herrscher power, it will undoubtedly be a very difficult and time-consuming task.

Instead of forcibly pulling the rope from Shadow Mei's hand bit by bit, it is better to directly use the snatched power of the Herrscher to breed a powerful companion Honkai beast in the palace, and maximize one's advantage in one go.

Before this, Hata had formed a fixed mindset that he had to defeat Shadow Mei in order to obtain the power of the personality mask. Amamiya Ren's ingenious move of commanding Raiden Mei to give birth to the companion Honkai beast in advance immediately made Hata feel extremely impressed.

Mei Raiden successfully overcame the shadow side of her heart and used the snatched Herrscher authority to summon the Herrscher of Lightning's companion Honkai Beast as she wished, which made Hatagi very relieved.

As the companion Honkai beast of the Herrscher of Thunder, although Kurikara does not have the combat power of the Herrscher level, a Judgment-level Honkai beast is enough to provide great assistance in combat.

Especially since Amamiya Ren's side was already confident of winning, it became even more stable now.

"Is this my personality mask, Kurikara... It looks so handsome! I have finally become a personality mask user like Amamiya-kun!"

Looking up at the enormous red-black dragon right above her, a blush appeared on Raiden Mei's face with excitement. She clenched her fists with excitement, and in her heart she felt a sense of joy and realization that she could finally stand beside Amamiya Ren and embark on the same path with him.

"Let's start fighting again, Amamiya-kun!"

"This time, let me join the battle and defeat the shadow in my heart together!"

“Roar, Kuligara!!!”

Chapter 94 Shadow Mei wants to become my personality mask! (Two in one)

The crimson dragon soaring in the sky let out a deafening roar that contained extremely strong destructive power. The deep red thunder that seemed to outline the huge scar of the destruction of the world itself fell from her mouth with a bang, aiming clearly at Shadow Mei who was dodging in a panic on the ground.

Amamiya Ren and Raiden Mei rode side by side on the dragon back of the personality mask Kurikara. He did not use any offensive skills, but instead controlled the personality mask Arsene to create mysterious ice blocks made of frost on the ground.

The ice that was soaked in the force of erosion was surging with ominous red and black light, which kept rising from the ground where Shadow Mei was standing, forcing her to dodge and move more hurriedly.

However, even though Shadow Mei relied on her keen observation and judgment abilities, she was temporarily unable to move as her legs were clamped by the ice.

Along with the frost on the ground, the subtle corrosive force inconspicuously flowed into Shadow Mei's delicate body, causing Shadow Mei's originally flexible and quick reaction speed to gradually become stiff and sluggish.

Just an careless mistake, and a slight deviation in the place of landing, Shadow Mei's ankle was blocked and imprisoned by the red-black ice. The cold ice that seemed to be able to freeze the soul continuously emerged, and covered Shadow Mei's knees in an instant.

If Shadow Mei had not used the power of lightning to counter in time, she would have been reduced to an ice sculpture, unable to move, with even her consciousness completely frozen.

If she were in her prime, Shadow Mei would be able to use her power of conquest to shatter the mysterious ice on her legs and regain her freedom.

However, as the authority of the Herrscher Core was constantly being snatched away by Raiden Mei, the remaining strength of Shadow Mei could only allow her to barely slow down the speed at which the red-black mysterious ice from her legs spread upwards, and she couldn't even suppress it completely.

Even if Amamiya Ren ignores her, Shadow Mei will completely turn into an ice sculpture of an evil demon warrior girl that can only serve as a decoration as time goes by.

"It's time to give her the final blow, Mei-senpai!"

Riding on the red dragon's back of Kurikara, Amamiya Ren looked down at the figure of Shadow Mei who was gradually turning into an ice sculpture on the ground. The corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up. He turned his head to look at Raiden Mei who was standing shoulder to shoulder with him and gave her some advice.

"Well, let's go together, Amamiya-kun!"

The victory of defeating her own shadow is within reach. Raiden Mei's purple eyes are filled with excitement and joy. She meets the eyes of Amamiya Ren beside her, and a sweet smile appears on her delicate and flawless face.

“One sword——It’s over!!”

The crimson devil dragon Kurigara let out a roar that resounded through the sky and spewed out an extremely thick column of red devil lightning toward the ground.

Following closely behind the crimson devil thunder came Raiden Mei and Amamiya Ren who jumped off the back of the Kurikara dragon.

The mechanical sword Raikiri and the Jizo Soul, which had transformed into a long sword, flashed with brilliant light, and as the two of them fell from the sky in an intersecting trajectory, they converged into a huge X-shaped sword attack.

The huge X-shaped sword formed by the intersection of deep red lightning and red-black flames pierced through the body of Shadow Mei whose feet were sealed by ice. The figures of Amamiya Ren and Raiden Mei appeared on the ground behind her, gently swung the katana in their hands, and then a huge explosion sounded where Shadow Mei was.

"Did I...fail? In the end, you still stood on the side of that poor wretch..."

The corrosive ice that froze Shadow Mei's legs was completely shattered into ice chips by the combined skills of Amamiya Ren and Raiden Mei.

Shadow Mei, who had suffered complete damage from the ultimate move, fell to the ground with her legs weak and limp. A small lightning hairpin that had been charred by the lightning quietly fell from her arms to the ground as Shadow Mei fell to the ground.

She stared down at the lightning hairpin that had turned black, her eyes, which had turned from gold back to purple, were filled with a complicated look.

There was a hideous and terrifying sword mark engraved on Shadow Mei's body. She had lost all her ability to resist at this moment. She couldn't even use the strength to move. She was in a state of exhaustion.

Purple-red spots of light kept flying out from Shadow Mei's body.

As her body continued to disintegrate, the Herrscher core authority occupied by Shadow Mei quickly flowed to Raiden Mei's end.

"Is that the hairpin I gave to Mei-senpai?"

Looking at the charred object that fell on the ground next to Shadow Mei, Amamiya Ren determined the identity of the mysterious object through the barely recognizable outline.

I watched helplessly as Shadow Mei used up her last bit of strength to hold the lightning hairpin that had been charred black by lightning in her hand.

Only then was Amamiya Ren able to confirm that his previous feelings were not an illusion.

When he was in the Kendo Club, he greeted Shadow Mei in the palace, and indeed successfully increased the favorability of Miss Shadow Mei.

Although there was no official notice, Amamiya Ren had verbally explained to Raiden Mei the purpose of sneaking into the palace before entering the palace, and the secret treasure in her mind should have already materialized.

Could it be that the lightning hairpin that I gave away is the secret treasure in this Raiden Mei Palace?

Or is it that, because Mei Raiden awakened her personality mask in the palace in her heart like Futaba Sakura, there are actually no secret treasures in this palace?

Looking at Shadow Mei's gloomy and desolate back that was disappearing, Amamiya Ren knew that now was not the time for her to think about these unimportant issues.

"There is no one side or the other. No matter which one of you is my Mei-senpai, the real Mei-senpai is my friend, and the shadow Mei-senpai who is her true self is of course also my friend."

The Jizo Soul, which had transformed beyond its limit into the form of a long sword, returned to its original form. The red-black flames surrounding Amamiya Ren slowly disappeared, and he took the initiative to say this to the shadow Mei who was facing forward with her back to him.

After hearing Amamiya Ren's statement that seemed like she wanted everything, the sad Mei Shadow suddenly turned around, and a look of obvious surprise appeared on her delicate face.

"Although I fought with you, I don't hate you, just like I don't hate Mei-senpai whose ugly thoughts you exposed... As the negative shadow in Mei-senpai's heart, I don't have hostility or disgust towards you. I just hope to correct the distortion in your heart, so that you can become Mei-senpai's strength and fight side by side with us."

Amamiya Ren looked directly into Shadow Mei's eyes and explained to her her true thoughts.

Shadow Mei seemed to be programmed, destined to fight Raiden Mei and Amamiya Ren who supported her.

Therefore, even if a battle really happened, Amamiya Ren had no ill feelings towards Shadow Mei at all.

What's more, during the battle, Amamiya Ren could vaguely sense that Shadow Mei had been secretly letting her off for a while.

Amamiya Ren wants to defeat Shadow Mei just out of the pure idea of ​​wanting to make her the personality of Raiden Mei, fight alongside her, and correct the distortion in Raiden Mei's mind.

"She actually said that she wanted me to become the personality mask of that poor creature and wanted me to become her strength? This is so funny..."

Even though she was on the verge of physical collapse, Shadow Mei still sneered stubbornly, expressing her mockery and disdain for it.

Before Mei Raiden, who was frowning slightly, could refute, Mei Shadow, who stopped sneering, looked seriously into Amamiya Ren's eyes.

"If you are the one who craves my power, I would be willing to share some of my power with you, even if it means becoming your personality mask. But as for that poor creature... well, since you did defeat me once, I will reluctantly give you some power as a reward."

When she said the second half of the sentence, Shadow Mei glanced at her original body, Raiden Mei. She did not hide the disgust in her words at all, and said this to Raiden Mei reluctantly for the sake of Amamiya Ren's face, as if giving alms.

Even though Shadow Mei was defeated, she still maintained an arrogant attitude, which immediately made the winner, Raiden Mei's forehead twitch, and she felt her blood pressure suddenly rise.

"Become my personality mask? But you are clearly Mei-senpai's shadow, it should be impossible for me to subdue you as a personality mask... Uh, it seems that it is not impossible?"

After hearing what Shadow Mei said, Amamiya Ren instinctively wanted to deny it, but in the next moment he frowned slightly and whispered thoughtfully.

Under normal circumstances, a personality mask user naturally cannot subdue the mask of another personality mask user.

But if you rely on the power of the Velvet Room, it is not impossible to use the power of the personality masks cultivated by others.

For example, Narukami-kun’s Izanagi is a classic among classics.

If the Velvet Room can do it, it means that there really is some way to allow Amamiya Ren to possess the personality mask that Shadow Mei transformed into.

But unfortunately, before she came into contact with the Velvet Room, Amamiya Ren still didn't know what method to use to take away someone else's personality mask.

Therefore, Amamiya Ren can only appreciate Shadow Mei's kindness for now, and prepare to make a detailed plan on how to make her become her own personality mask after she comes into contact with the Velvet Room in the future.
