Honkai Impact 3, but I’m Amamiya Ren!

However, just as Amamiya Ren was about to order the personality mask Benares to deal a fatal blow to the gray-gold shadow, a golden clock shadow quietly emerged under the feet of the gray-gold shadow that had obviously been severely injured.

The golden clock phantom rotated counterclockwise at a high speed. As the hour hand moved backwards, the time of the gray-gold shadow within the range of the golden clock phantom seemed to have reversed as well.

One by one, the tiny mechanical parts were restored and returned to the body of the gray-gold shadow like a reverse video.

Finally, the gray-gold shadow pulled out the golden sword that was stuck in the ground to support its body, and once again showed its edge to Amamiya Lian and others.

Amamiya Lian could feel that the power of the gray-gold shadow had weakened slightly, but the injuries it had suffered in the previous battle had undoubtedly fully recovered.

"A shadow that can manipulate time... Interesting, I think it's worth taking as a personality mask."

Looking at the gray-gold shadow reversing its own time, Amamiya Ren's eyes suddenly lit up, and he had the idea of ​​taming this wild shadow and making it his own personality mask.

If this gray-gold shadow can be successfully subdued as a personality mask, with the help of the skill scroll function drawn by Grayshu in the paradise of the past, perhaps Amamiya Ren can make his personality mask Arsene also have the mysterious power to reverse time.

After thinking about this, Amamiya Ren's eyes looking at the gray-gold mechanical shadow became more eager.

The pointer of the golden clock returned to the origin, and the time in this area seemed to have come to a standstill.

Amamiya Ren felt as if her body was fixed in the air, and even blinking became very difficult, but her consciousness was not affected at all.

When Amamiya Ren mobilized the magic power in his body, the quagmire-like stagnation was broken and he regained his freedom of movement.

The moment it interfered with the surrounding time, the gray-gold mechanical shadow drove the pulley under its feet, and its body rushed towards Amamiya Ren like a large vehicle rotating at high speed, and the heavy golden sword in its hand slashed straight towards Amamiya Ren's neck.

Although Amamiya Ren broke free from the constraints of time delay in time, he would undoubtedly be at a disadvantage if he had to face this extremely powerful gray-gold shadow alone.

The personality mask Benares was still hovering high in the sky. She could not immediately launch a rescue operation to support Amamiya Ren. Even if she wanted to launch a long-range attack to provide support, she would only be able to cover and hit Amamiya Ren and the gray-gold shadow who were very close.

“Brother Lian————!!”

Looking at the mechanical shadow that roared and rushed to Amamiya Ren in the blink of an eye and swung the golden giant sword at him, a look of panic suddenly appeared on Xier's delicate face.

Xier's slender figure in a sea-blue dress instantly turned into a pure blue quantum shadow.

After using the power of quantum to get rid of the time lag effect imposed on herself, Xier ran towards Amamiya Ren as fast as she could, silently praying in her heart that she could support Amamiya Ren in time.

But after running a few steps forward quickly, Xier suddenly felt something was wrong.

Mei Raiden and Hato used their own methods to break free from the effects of time delay, but after gaining their freedom they did not rush to support Ren Amamiya. Instead, they stood there leisurely and watched the battle silently, looking not worried at all.

After realizing this, Xier's mind suddenly moved, and she subconsciously cast her gaze on the face of Amamiya Ren herself, then suddenly ended the quantized state and stood still.

If you ask why, it is because an increasingly arrogant smile is gradually showing on Amamiya Ren's face.

Without reaching out to take off the mask, the white spirit bird mask worn on Amamiya Lian's face spontaneously transformed into leaping blue-green flames that splashed in all directions, revealing Amamiya Lian's face with a wild and evil smile.

The personality mask Benares that was hovering high in the sky disappeared without a sound or a trace.

Instead, there was a tall figure wearing a slim evening gown that looked as if it was stained with blood, a black pointed hat, and huge black falcon wings on his back.

The personality mask Arsene suddenly appeared in front of Amamiya Ren's body. It stretched out its sharp black claws and firmly grasped the golden slash that the gray-gold shadow swung with strong momentum, without even a trembling movement in its body.

Using the social skills acquired from Hato to observe this gray-gold mechanical shadow, Amamiya Ren learned its name - [Imaginary God Skeleton·Nihilism].

This shadow named Nihilism is extremely powerful. If it was Amamiya Ren who had just awakened her personality mask, even with the support of Hatagu, it would take a lot of effort to defeat this Nihilistic Shadow.

However, when facing the grown-up Amamiya Ren, this nihilistic shadow seems a little insignificant.

"Finish it, Yasin!!"

Along with the command shouted by Amamiya Ren from behind, a scarlet eerie light suddenly appeared in the eyes of the personality mask Arsen. Its dark fingertips exerted more and more force, and the golden sword captured by Arsen's black sharp claws was instantly crushed into broken pieces by the huge force.

After subduing the personality mask Kosmo, the claw attack technique learned from the [Ascending Light] mark was performed by the personality mask Arsene as if it was an instinctive flow, and the deep-cut claws flashed with a scarlet luster.

Appearing behind the Nihilistic Shadow as if teleporting, the Persona Arsene casually threw aside the fragment of the golden planetarium held tightly in his black sharp claws.

In the next moment, the core part of the planetarium, which was obviously broken, was smashed, and the imaginary god's skeleton, Nihilism, fell to the ground with a loud bang, and its momentum was visibly weakened to the extreme.

In front of the personality mask Arsene, this time, Nihilism was severely damaged to the point that he didn't even have the spare time to reverse time and repair himself.

"Imaginary God Corpse, Nihilism, become my personality mask! .........As expected, even this one won't work."

Amamiya Ren stood before the nihilistic shadow of the gradually fading life and declared his intention to conquer it.

As long as nihilism is willing to become Amamiya Ren's personality mask, it will naturally receive timely treatment and will not fall into a state of death meaninglessly.

What disappointed Amamiya Ren was that the Imaginary God Corpse·Nihilism had no reaction at all to Amamiya Ren's attempts to persuade him to surrender, as if he couldn't hear or understand his words at all.

Even though the Personality Mask Arsene released the Dream Needle towards the Nihilistic Shadow, causing it to fall into a coma, Amamiya Ren was unable to subdue this troublesome Shadow in the dream like she did with Fuu and Boreas.

In fact, Amamiya Ren had already anticipated that the shadow of nihilism could not be subdued.

Because he had already tried to subdue other shadows like Nihilism, but all ended in failure.

The process that had failed on its kind was repeated on the Imaginary God Corpse Nihilism, simply because the power of the Nihilistic Shadow to affect time was too tempting.

But since there is no way to subdue the Imaginary God Corpse·Nihilism as a personality mask, Amamiya Ren can only regretfully make a final blow to it, overcome the obstacles of this powerful shadow, and look for the shadow that is the target of the Phantom Thief's mission.

"Give it one final blow, Yassen... huh?!"

Just when Amamiya Ren was about to command the personality mask Arsen to completely eliminate the Nihilistic Shadow, he suddenly seemed to sense something and stared deeply at the figure of his own exclusive personality mask Arsen.

The personality mask Arsen nodded to Amamiya Ren, then shook his head gently.

Just as Amamiya Ren was surprised at the abnormal behavior of the personality mask Arsen, Arsen suddenly stretched out his hand towards the Nihilistic Shadow lying on the ground, and a deep scarlet light suddenly shone up, completely covering the increasingly weak and broken body of the Nihilistic Shadow.

"This is... transcription?! Joker, have you mastered the ability to transcribe shadows?!"

Looking at the nihilistic shadow body that was enveloped by the scarlet light released by the personality mask Arsene, its gray-gold body gradually melted like spring snow.

Yutu, who had previously looked a little worried, as if she was still immersed in the conversation with Shadow, the Herrscher of the Sky, suddenly opened her eyes wide in shock, and an incredible look appeared in her pair of blue-purple eyes.

Although I have long been accustomed to Amamiya Ren's world-shocking and extraordinary comprehension ability.

But Yutu never expected that Amamiya Ren could master such a difficult ability as transcribing the information of living beings in such a short time.

You should know that although Yutu has summoned the rational warriors she created through transcription in front of Amamiya Ren, she has never used the ability of transcription in front of Amamiya Ren... In other words, Amamiya Ren completely derived the ability to transcribe life from her ability to read information on her own!

"The name of this ability is Transcription, I think I understand..."

Amamiya Ren nodded slightly, his eyes focused on the remnant of the nihilistic shadow in front of him.

From Yutu, Amamiya Ren learned the name of this upgraded social skill.

And from the feedback from Arsene, who was another personality of her, Amamiya Ren understood the usage and effect of this transcription ability.

"Can you forcibly subdue the shadow and randomly transform it into a personality mask?......"

Amamiya Ren murmured softly to herself.

Although Yutu's negotiation skill has always been very high, there is basically no shadow that cannot be persuaded as long as she takes action, but Amamiya Ren never expected that Yutu's social skill would be able to directly subdue the defeated shadow.

However, the shadow that is forcibly subdued using the ability called [Transcription] will not maintain its original form, but will transform into a personality mask image of a different form...The P5 story is a different matter. If it is the P4 world, it is normal for the shadow's form to be different from the form after being transformed into a personality mask.

Therefore, after the Shadow is forcibly subdued, its image will change. In Amamiya Ren's opinion, this is nothing to be surprised about.

Just as Amamiya Ren was thinking about transcribing this new social ability, the personality mask Arsene had already completely transcribed the existence information of the Imaginary God Corpse, Nihilistic Shadow, who was lying on the ground.

A bright white new light suddenly lit up, and then the dazzling white light slowly dimmed.

The huge gray-gold body of the Imaginary God's Skeleton, Nihilism Shadow, suddenly disappeared.

Instead, there is a huge dark golden clock with the elegant figures of three goddesses carved on it. Three golden wings extend from the backs of the three golden goddesses.

"Is this the personality mask obtained by transcribing the Imaginary God Corpse, Nihilism...Personality Mask, Norn!!"

Looking at the golden clock of the three goddesses of fate floating in front of her, Amamiya Ren recognized the identity of this personality mask at a glance.

Chapter 3: It's the same type of personality mask as my Kosmo (5K)

"Found it. Is this the Shadow we want to repent of? But why does he look like a child?"

Continuing to move forward along the route planned by the Different World Navigation APP, after defeating many shadows blocking the way, Amamiya Ren finally reached the end of the route and met the shadow of the mission target that the Different World Navigation APP had pointed to.

However, when Amamiya Lian saw the figure of the mission target Shadow, he immediately raised his eyebrows in surprise, and subconsciously picked up the other world navigation APP to confirm the navigation route again.

Only after Amamiya Ren was sure that he had not taken the wrong path did he finally put down his phone and carefully looked at the shadow figure of the mission target in front of him.

The petite loli, who was less than 1.5 meters tall, was wearing a black nun's uniform. Her eye-catching white hair was wrapped under the black nun's headscarf. Her sapphire-like eyes were fixed on visitors such as Amamiya Ren who had just arrived here.

"Such familiar white hair and blue eyes. And judging from her face, she looks like a smaller version of Kallen. Considering the close distance between this place and Kaslana Palace... could this little girl also be a member of Kaslana's tribe?"

The more Amamiya Ren observed the little nun with white hair and blue eyes, the more he felt a sense of familiarity.

Thinking about it more carefully, Amamiya Ren was sure that he had seen the nun's uniform worn by the little nun in front of him... In Yuishi's memories in the Yaezakura Palace, the nun's uniform worn by Kallen Kaslana was exactly the same as the nun's uniform worn by Shadow, with the only difference being the size and style.

Based on the information collected above, Amamiya Lian was certain that the target of the mission, Shadow, was definitely a member of the Kaslana family.

"...Is the Kaslana family exploiting child labor? Why are they forcing such a young girl to work? And they teach her to be so unruly that she deducts the wages of her subordinates and only cares about her own fun."

Before seeing this petite white-haired lolita in person, the shadow image of an unscrupulous boss that Amamiya Ren had sketched out in her mind was clearly that of a classic middle-aged man wearing a black suit and gold-rimmed glasses.

It can only be said that the appearance of this little nun immediately made Amamiya Lian, who had arrived here with great interest, feel a little weird.

It is natural and normal for a little girl like this, who comes from a big family and is only eleven or twelve years old, to only care about her own enjoyment if she sits in a high position like a boss.

For all human beings, there are corresponding shadows in the image space of the spiritual world.

Just having shadows doesn't mean anything. Only those powerful shadows that gave birth to palaces in the image space are the targets who have committed various serious crimes due to their twisted minds and who truly need to be repented by the Phantom Thieves.

In order to find out whether this young nun had made any serious mistake, Amamiya Ren only needed to ask her in person.

The shadow in the impression space is the truest side of a person's heart, so the shadow will not lie. No matter who asks what question, the shadow will answer 100% honestly.

"Little nun over there, let me ask you, have you really exploited your subordinates and withheld her salary... huh?!"

Just as Amamiya Lian coughed lightly and was about to ask the little nun Shadow who could not lie.

The atmosphere around the white-haired little nun suddenly changed.

“Ho, hoa ...

Her sapphire eyes were gradually stained with a hint of blood red, and her eyes seemed extremely violent. She opened her pink lips like a irrational beast, revealing white teeth that had become as sharp as animal teeth, and a low sound like the roar of a wild beast came from her throat.

The first time Amamiya Ren saw the white-haired little nun Shadow, she felt a sense of similarity and closeness from her.

Amamiya Ren originally thought that the source of this feeling of closeness was because of the personality mask Kallen.

However, as blood-red energy flames gradually burned on the white-haired little nun's body, her petite body seemed to expand in the flames and transformed into a huge and familiar shape of a strange beast.

Only then did Amamiya Ren realize that the reason why he felt close to the white-haired little nun Shadow was not only because of the personality mask Kallen, but also because of the personality mask Kosmo that he had just subdued in the space of the paradise of the past.

"Is it the same type of shadow as Kosmo?...Everyone be careful, the enemy shadow can absorb our magic power, try not to get in close contact with her!"

The white-haired little nun Shadow didn't even communicate a word and directly skipped the standard process and came directly to the stage of transforming into Shadow to start the battle. Her ability to save time surprised Amamiya Lian a little.

However, Amamiya Ren quickly came to her senses, concentrated on getting into a fighting stance, and reminded her companions such as Raiden Mei and Seele behind her.

Because she has subdued the personality mask Kosmo, Amamiya Ren is very familiar with the abilities of the shadow form transformed by the white-haired little nun, and even knows where her weaknesses are.

When the white-haired little nun completely transformed into the shadow form, she turned into an arm-blade demon form that was very similar to Kosmo, except that this blue-gray demon was smaller and the energy aura surrounding its body was scarlet. These were the only slight differences in small details.

"To deal with this Shadow, let's use... let's use this newly captured Persona!"

Amamiya Ren's fingers, wearing red gloves, gently rested on the edge of the white spirit bird mask on her face.

Faced with the white-haired little nun Shadow who transformed into an arm-blade demon, Amamiya Ren hesitated for a moment about which personality mask to choose to fight.

This is the trouble that comes when the number of personalities increases.

If there was only the personality mask Kallen, Amamiya Ren would be able to make a prompt decision and send Kallen into battle.

If there was only the personality mask Kosmo, Amamiya Ren would choose to let the two arm-blade demons with extremely similar appearances engage in a high-intensity fight.

However, due to the excessive number of personalities, Amamiya Ren finally decided to use the arm blade demon shadow that was transformed from the white-haired little nun to test the abilities of his newly captured personalities.

"I've decided it's you, come on - Persona!! Noren!!"

Amamiya Lian suddenly threw the white spirit bird mask in her hand forward, and a dark blue spirit flame instantly ignited in the sky.

Ding, ding, ding————!!!

The sound of bells, like the gurgling of the fountain of destiny, sounded quietly in the void.

A golden clock engraved with the statues of the three goddesses of fate suddenly appeared in the battlefield of this impression space, and as soon as it appeared, it launched a special ability to manipulate time on the arm-blade demon shadow that was transformed from the white-haired little nun.

The golden ripples slowly spread outwards with the rotation of the clock hands, and under the influence of the golden time ripples, the movement of the Arm Blade Demon Shadow, who was bending down to prepare for the charge, was suddenly visibly delayed, as clearly visible as a slow motion shot in a movie.

"Good opportunity, let's attack together!!"

Looking at the Arm Blade Demon Shadow whose body flexibility was restricted by the power of time cast by the personality mask Noren, Raiden Mei's eyes suddenly lit up.
