"You think you've won?"
At this moment, Sirin, who was lying on the ground, looked at Dark Seele confidently and burst into laughter.
Dark Seele, who had raised her scythe, was taken aback by Sirin's laughter. Then she heard Sirin's confident declaration...
"Did you know? The moment you touched me, I had already figured out your weakness! You, like me, are a spiritual body! Hahahaha!"
"It seems you not only look dumb, but there's also something wrong with your head." Seele looked at Sirin with pity. She hadn't expected Honkai to be so desperate as to make such a fool a Herrscher.
"Since we're both spiritual bodies now, what weakness is there to speak of..."
"No, no, no... you don't understand what I mean..."
Sirin covered her face and stood up, laughing maniacally. Through the gaps between her fingers, her eyes and smile were filled with disdain and the certainty of victory.
Then, she raised her hand towards Dark Seele and snapped her fingers crisply.
Behind Dark Seele, where she couldn't see, a portal opened.
Dark Seele sensed the change in space behind her and instantly turned around.
Before her eyes, a simple baseball bat with the conspicuous words 「Limited Edition」 and 「Tianqi」 printed on it emerged from the portal.
Her body felt as if someone had pressed the pause button. She was completely unable to move, only able to watch as the baseball bat grew larger and closer in her field of vision...
Duang—
The crisp sound of a head colliding with a baseball bat rang out, and Dark Seele fell to the ground.
"Quantum state? I really don't get it. But do you know what a causality weapon is? As long as it's aimed at the target, it's a guaranteed hit. A light tap, and you sleep for an hour. A hard hit, and you sleep for 12 hours."
Sirin chuckled as she weighed the baseball bat in her hand. A Tianqi product is a guaranteed masterpiece. Although Sirin didn't know where Kiana had picked it up, or who Tianqi was, this baseball bat was incredibly useful.
After being hit by Sirin with the Tianqi-brand baseball bat, Dark Seele would have to sleep for at least an hour.
To prevent Dark Seele from popping out of nowhere again and shouting, "Disperse with the butterflies!"
Sirin picked up the baseball bat and hit Dark Seele a few more times, leaving her with a head full of bumps. After that, Sirin wiped her non-existent sweat, stood with her hands on her hips for a while feeling very pleased with herself, and then put the baseball bat back into Imaginary Space.
After resting for a bit, Sirin seemed to remember something and immediately put up dozens of layers of Honkai shields around herself, especially on her back, where she added over a hundred layers.
Whether it was being stabbed by Hare, knocked out by Kiana, tricked by Dark Seele's feint, or even Ryn attacking from behind... (Did something unpleasant get mixed in there?)
Every time Sirin turned around, someone would ambush her, making her so paranoid that she would put up dozens of shields around herself whenever she let her guard down.

"The spatial medium has been altered, and all known coordinates are in chaos..."
Sirin returned to where Dark Seele lay unconscious with a grave expression. She sat down next to Dark Seele and stared at her, lost in thought.
After dealing with Dark Seele, Sirin sensed the surrounding space and found that it was completely different from the spatial medium she was originally in. It could even be said that the laws of the world had been completely changed.
Lacking the ability to accurately open a spatial portal, Sirin spent half a day flying around and observing the entire Bubble Universe.
She confirmed some of her conjectures.
First, the being that had attacked her and Kiana had separated them. If she were to categorize them based on her spiritual body, then the world she was in should be the Soul World, and the world Kiana was in would be the normal material world.
In the current Bubble Universe, there were only two living beings: herself and the person on the ground.
In other words, this unlucky person had been caught in the crossfire because of her and dragged into this world?
"Looking at it this way, it seems it was my fault to begin with, so her anger is understandable, isn't it?"
Sirin pondered as she squatted next to Dark Seele, poking her face with her hand. As she poked, a marker pen unknowingly appeared in Sirin's hand, and she slowly began to draw a large tortoise, small circles, and other mischievous patterns on Dark Seele's face.
It was unclear whether it was because Sirin felt guilty for involving an innocent person, or because she felt a sense of relief in finding a kindred spirit after realizing Dark Seele was also a spiritual body...
In any case, Sirin didn't kill Dark Seele. In fact, the more she looked at the sleeping Dark Seele, the cuter she found her.
After watching for a while, Sirin felt she should have a proper talk with Dark Seele. Perhaps they could resolve the misunderstanding and become friends?
So Sirin summoned Imaginary Chains and used them to tie Dark Seele up in a beautiful way.
Her hands were bound tightly behind her back, causing her torso to arch forward, pushing her modest chest up high. The crisscrossing chains perfectly outlined the beautiful shape of the two mounds.
With an Imaginary Chain in her mouth, her lips couldn't close completely, and from time to time, a few drops of crystalline liquid would trickle from her mouth.
The sleeping Dark Seele, due to her position and the foreign object in her mouth, had some difficulty breathing. Her perfectly cute face was now flushed, revealing a charming allure.
"Hehehe... as expected of me... I'll have to try tying up Kiana like this in the future..."
Sirin wiped the drool that had involuntarily escaped the corner of her mouth. Although she was usually the one tied up by Ryn, Sirin didn't expect that she also had a talent for tying others up.
——————————————
After the fourth day, Dark Seele, who had been knocked out by Sirin with countless blows and fallen into an endless slumber, finally woke up.
The first thing Dark Seele noticed upon waking was the abnormality of her body, and she began to struggle violently. But being tied up so tightly and with no leverage, Dark Seele could only wriggle on the ground like a caterpillar.
"Mmmph, mmmph—!"
"Oh? You're awake." Sirin, who was contemplating how to leave this place, heard the commotion made by Dark Seele and slowly walked over. "Since you're awake, let me explain the situation first. We are not enemies."
"Mmmph, mmmph—?"
"If you don't say anything, I'll take that as your agreement. If you try anything again, I won't be so polite."
Sirin nodded in satisfaction and began to tell the unresisting Dark Seele what she had discovered over the past few days.
After she finished speaking, Sirin untied Dark Seele.
Having understood the situation, Dark Seele knew she had misunderstood Sirin, but her hatred for Herrschers still made it difficult for her to accept Sirin.
Dark Seele was about to speak, wanting to ask Sirin if she had any solution to the current situation, when.
Sirin's golden eyes suddenly lit up. Her playful expression instantly vanished, and she looked at her gradually solidifying body in confusion and fear, muttering in disbelief:
"Something's happened to Kiana. Her share of the power weighting is transferring to me."
"Quantum state... quantum entanglement... Seele, can you locate the world where your other self exists?"
"There's something wrong with this world... I can't do it for now. Unless I have a medium..."
"Then I'm sorry, could you lend me your power for a moment?"
"I can, but you must ensure my other self's safety after you return to that world!"
"I will."
Sirin and Dark Seele clasped hands, and Sirin's Imaginary internal energy instantly surged into Dark Seele's body.
Dark Seele relaxed her conscious mind, handing over control of her body to Sirin.
Using Dark Seele's body as a tool to initiate quantum entanglement and the power transfer channel between herself and Kiana as a medium, Sirin began to search for Kiana's location.
A few minutes later, Dark Seele's body began to overheat from the overload, and she was on the verge of fainting.
Just before Dark Seele completely lost consciousness, she heard Sirin's voice...
"Found her... but it's not safe over there right now. Wait for me... I'll come back for you after I've dealt with it!"
