Impressive, my Vill-V.
Inside the group chat, Elysia suddenly @'d him, and Ryuga's eyes instantly lit up. Only a month had passed, and she had already infiltrated Fire Moth.
: "Are you sure?"
: "I can't be certain, but there are indeed signs of infiltration in Fire Moth. And it's not just one person; the methods are very sophisticated."
"Recently, while I was counter-infiltrating, I also took down a few people and found they were all 'lackeys' of the same person. That last guy was as slippery as an eel; I missed them several times, which is quite frustrating."
: "Do you need me to come over?"
It seemed that 'The Charlatan' Vill-V had already been to Sundown Alley and glimpsed the secrets of Fire Moth.
Based on the information she held and the reputation of the 'Former Moth', Vill-V concluded that 'Fire Moth' was the mastermind behind the Great Honkai disaster.
So she began her infiltration.
: "That won't be necessary. I want to have some fun with her~"
[Snowy Mountain Qingxin Melon]: "Who is Vill-V?"
: "A very formidable person. Sigh, dear Ryuga has snatched away all the talent. It's so distressing; what will I do if I can't defeat the Herrschers in the future? (Resentful)"
[13th Sect Master of Mount Yunjian]: "If you can't defeat them, call Ryuga."
: "Don't worry, Elysia. With my General Ryuga here, I will surely slay the mere Herrscher of Finality."
Ryuga didn't think he was any worse than the Herrscher of Finality.
As for the Cocoon, he wasn't sure if he could beat it yet.
But it didn't matter.
He had plenty of time.
By the time 'Finality' fully developed, he estimated he'd already be able to crush it.
Besides, his connections were decent.
If all else failed, he'd bring Herta along. If that still wasn't enough, Ruan Mei and Screwllum would join in too.
Herrscher of Finality: Brother, I'm already kneeling, please spare me Orz.
: "Heehee, Elysia will always believe in Ryuga. Love you to death (Blows kiss.jpg)."
: "I will always love Elysia too."
: [Love you (╭￣3￣)╭]
: [I love you too (╭￣3￣)╭]
[Director Furina]: "You two... I smell the sour stench of romance."
[13th Sect Master of Mount Yunjian]: "I think Ryuga has probably already won Elysia over."
[Istaroth]: "So fast."
: "Can't help it. Handsome, kind-hearted, and a great personality."
: "Mm-hmm, dear Ryuga is indeed the handsomest, kindest, and best-natured man I've ever met."
Elysia was very supportive.
[Director Furina]: "Leaving the group."
[Istaroth]: "Leaving the group +1"
[13th Sect Master of Mount Yunjian]: "Leaving the group +3"
[Jingliu]: "Leaving the group +4."
: "Stop the spam. By the way, are you all that free? It seems like only Elysia and I are busy to death all day."
[Istaroth]: "As the God of Time, my daily schedule is: 'Free'!"
What a powerful statement; I'm actually speechless.
[Director Furina]: "It is quite free. I spend every day in the Opera House watching trials."
Well, that's very Furina.
[Snowy Mountain Qingxin Melon]: "A wandering traveler is watching someone paint on the beach."
Hmm?
Beach?
Painting?
Could it be...
: "@Snowy Mountain Qingxin Melon, is it a blonde girl with a white floating object?"
[Snowy Mountain Qingxin Melon]: "How did you know?"
Your ID was given to you by Paimon.
(▔□▔)/.
So it's right when Lumine just started her journey?
: "She should be 'one of our kind'. Pay more attention to her; perhaps she will bring you some freshness?"
'One of our kind'?
Skirk stood on the beach for a long time, her gaze following the receding golden figure, her eyes looking distant.
A blonde girl traveler, and a white floating object by her side?
One of our kind?
She murmured again.
Both wandering travelers?
Stowaways traveling through the cracks of fate between worlds?
Thinking about it, Skirk slowly narrowed her eyes.
Interesting.
[Snowy Mountain Qingxin Melon]: "Elysia, is there still Honkai on your side? @Customer Service Miss Pink Elf♪"
: "Hmm? Do you mean a Great Honkai or a minor Honkai? Minor Honkai are always happening. A 'Great Honkai' just passed, so it shouldn't be that soon."
[Snowy Mountain Qingxin Melon]: "Mm. If a Herrscher appears, remember to call me in advance."
Small zombies and Honkai beasts were useless to her.
Weak existences were just foam in the Honkai tide, not even worthy of her drawing her sword.
Only battles that made the blood boil could tear through her shackles.
: "Eh, but..."
Ryuga wants to do experiments, right?
It won't do if they're killed by you.
Then fate won't be changed.
: "It's fine, Elysia. There are still Judgment-class Honkai beasts."
Ryuga knew that Skirk wanted to catch up with her master, as soon as possible.
Nowadays, Skirk had been following the path her master once took, understanding where his strength came from, hoping to find a way to defeat him.
And now, she seemed to have found another path?
: "Speaking of which, 'minor Honkai' have indeed been frequent lately, much more so than before the Second Great Honkai."
Elysia frowned.
Normally, after a Great Honkai, there would be at least a six-month interval.
Like a post-coital cigarette, one needs to rest.
But now?
Honkai had become enthusiastic again.
What exactly did Ryuga do?
Did he tear a rift in the fate of Honkai?
Starting from the Herrscher of the Void, the gears of fate had already shifted.
Although it only broke a few threads of fate and wasn't enough to shake the foundation of the Honkai Will, perhaps the Honkai Will had already noticed something?
Honkai is on guard!
[1] "Hmm?"
Could it be that his act of burning away 'Evil' and leaving only 'Good' had alerted Honkai?
Is it accelerating the Honkai?
"Elysia, pay attention to whether the minor Honkai are heading towards Nagazora City."
: "Mm, how did you know?"
: "I just gained the ability to see time and peek into fate."
[2] "Wow~"
: "@13th Sect Master of Mount Yunjian, although my flames cannot resurrect those who are completely dead, I can use time interaction to pull your sister back. Call me when you're ready. I still have a city to slaughter, so I'm logging off. (╭￣3￣)╭ @Customer Service Miss Pink Elf♪"
[3] "(╭￣3￣)╭."
Yixuan's mind buzzed, her ears filled only with the roar of rushing blood, and her heart pounded against her chest like a war drum.
Sister, resurrected?
Her sister's instructions echoed in her mind.
"Is it cold? Little dummy, if you're hungry, you must tell sister. Sister will definitely find you something good to eat."
"Listen to Master, study martial arts and books seriously, and don't make the old man angry every day."
"This is a return gift for your previous birthday; sister will help you put it on."
"Since the Qingming Sword chose me, I cannot escape this responsibility."
"Don't worry, as long as I think of you, sister won't do anything foolish."
"Yixuan, take care of... yourself."
Tears fell uncontrollably.
...
"Hey— snap out of it, you're hurting Castorice."
March 7th stood on tiptoe, waving her fair little hand in front of Ryuga's eyes.
Her brows were slightly furrowed, a bit sour and helpless.
Is it that serious?
I admit she's pretty, but is it that serious?
"Uh, sorry, I was just thinking about some things."
Ryuga smiled and let go of her hand.
"It's, it's fine."
Castorice lowered her eyes, her fingertips curling slightly.
The distant horizon suddenly rumbled and vibrated, dust clouds billowed, and iron hooves roared like thunder, making everyone's hearts tremble.
The killing intent arrived before the war drums even sounded.
Cerydra's legion had arrived.
