Miss Riddler just wants to level up in peace.

One moment they're fighting and killing each other, the next they're shaking hands and making peace.

Could the two be in a romantic relationship?

That's even more absurd—a romantic partner who's a Herrscher?!

"..."

Otto, however, knew perfectly well that this was not an accident.

The real enemy is neither Schicksal nor the Herrscher...

The girl's words echoed in my ears, and upon reflection, I couldn't help but admire her unique insight.

It's not about K423 defeating Sirin's consciousness, but about the two of them coexisting and working together to fight against the Honkai's will...

In addition, the Honkai energy suppressor beneath the church came into play at just the right moment when the Herrscher's spirit experienced a huge fluctuation.

With this power, the Honkai Will was defeated.

At first, he thought this thing was useless and didn't realize Ziyao's true thoughts.

It seems he needs to change his view on 'allies'.

On the surface, Otto appeared calm, but his heart was in turmoil.

To be honest, he didn't want to be Ziyao's enemy.

But he needs the Herrscher of the Void, so conflict is inevitable.

"Your Excellency, I would like to take a few days off next week."

Looking at the group of people in the distance, Durandal suddenly spoke, placing her right fist on her chest, as if she had a new target.

..

"Servant, can't you even protect yourself?"

Upon noticing the injury on Ziyao's hand, the Queen's gaze immediately turned icy.

While blaming them, she looked at the horde of Honkai beasts inside and outside the church.

With a crisp snap of the fingers, the Honkai Beasts turned to ashes under the intense spatial distortion, startling the Valkyries who almost thought something terrible was about to happen again.

The Herrscher... truly a walking dynamite.

"Kiana..."

Seeing all this, Theresa felt both surprised and complicated.

I thought something bad would happen to Ziyao, but unexpectedly Kiana woke up.

Seeing them kiss made me feel inexplicably sad.

Mei remained silent, but it was clear that her tense nerves had relaxed.

"Ahem... Thank you."

Releasing Ziyao from her confinement, the Queen used the power of the Tranquility Gem to heal her wounds.

Strangely, even though all her wounds had healed, Ziyao still looked weak.

"Hmph, don't get hurt so easily next time."

The Herrscher of Domination was defeated, and the dilapidated theater completely collapsed.

Sunlight streamed in, illuminating the ruins of the church.

Everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief, and some Valkyries even collapsed to the ground, thinking they would never be able to return from this mission.

The Honkai energy suppression device in the church's basement was completely destroyed, and the unpleasant smell of tar permeated through the cracks.

Ziyao had a vague feeling that something was wrong, and her sixth sense told her that things were not over yet.

"Kiana, no, what should I call you?"

"Owner."

"I understand, it's better to call her Sirin."

Ziyao, without consulting Xilin, made the decision for her.

Sirin: ?

"Can you help everyone heal their wounds? As compensation, how about I treat you to a meal?"

"Ha, why should I help them?"

Have a meal?

Are you kidding me? Is she someone who's so easily satisfied?

Ziyao took Xilin's hand and said, "Please."

With her soft, warm hands and the girl's clear eyes, Xilin couldn't help but soften her heart.

"...You have too many demands for a servant."

So, despite her complaints, Sirin helped Theresa and the other woman heal their wounds.

"Headmistress, is Kiana confirmed to have woken up?"

Bronya asked, puzzled.

With heterochromatic eyes, and behaving in the style of a Herrscher, the only difference was that the other party no longer showed any hostility.

"I don't know either..."

Theresa remained wary of Sirin; when Sirin approached, Judah sensed a threat and immediately sent a tremor to alert her.

"Everyone is fine."

Mei let out a long sigh of relief and released the power of the Thunder Law.

The moment the lightning disappeared,

A dark, barely perceptible malice began to grow.

Aiming at Sirin, using the cute girls as cover, the pitch-black Honkai energy transforms into long thorns and suddenly pierces out.

The experienced Theresa immediately sensed danger, but her attention was entirely on Sirin, assuming that Sirin was about to make a move.

A single wrong decision nearly pushed her into the abyss of death.

The next second, a warm, wet sensation splashed onto Theresa's cheek.

Looking to the side, she froze, like a wooden statue.

Ziyao was seen kneeling on the ground with her chest pierced through, her pretty face pale. Beside her was the headless senior's sword, broken in two.

Bright red blood spilled onto the ground, pooling into a small puddle.

A strange blonde loli doll stood in the distance, twisting its body angrily.

"Damn it, damn it, damn it, damn it, damn it, damn it, damn it!"

"It's you again, you annoying woman! Damn it, damn it... Hehe, do you think you can survive?"

The venom inside the thorns can kill an elephant instantly; this was specifically designed to deal with Herrschers and Valkyries.

An ordinary person would have no chance of survival if they took that blow.

"Ziyao...!"

Theresa quickly helped Ziyao up, realizing that if the girl hadn't helped block the way, both she and Bronya would have died.

Like a fool, disregarding his own life, only thinking about helping others...

It's all my fault, I was too careless.

They were so focused on Kiana that they overlooked the danger lurking in the shadows.

“I command you not to die, my servant.”

Xilin panicked.

The angle was too sharp, and the Thousand-Man Herrscher was hidden behind Theresa, so she didn't notice him at all.

By the time she realized what was happening, Ziyao had already suffered a fatal injury.

"It's hopeless, cough..."

The power of the Tranquil Gem continued to heal the girl's body, but without any effect, like a broken cup.

"How could this be...?"

Mei's hands were covered in Ziyao's blood, and she felt an intense pain in her heart.

He had promised to protect her, yet he watched helplessly as she died once again.

Sirin was furious. The thousand-man Herrscher had only taken a few steps when he was torn into countless pieces by the space.

"Ziyao... is dead?"

Tesla uttered the girl's name for the first time, his words broken and fragmented.

Einstein's brief message contained a wealth of information and directly explained the situation.

"You must be joking... She's going to die."

Tesla said incredulously, suddenly feeling somewhat dazed.

This explains why Karen kept vomiting blood.

If the original body dies, her clone will naturally die as well.

When the roots die, the branches and leaves will wither and die along with them.

"Hmm hehe..."

Wiping the blood from the corner of her mouth, Karen stood up unsteadily and suddenly chuckled.
