My days as a Simulation Herrscher since the Honkai Impact

In the Honkai world, the truly important things cannot be bought with money. For example, the Divine Key behind Raven is something that cannot be bought with money no matter what.

On the other hand, although Raven possesses the priceless Divine Key, she doesn't actually have much money in her own savings.

She had already emptied her savings to buy the island, and after it sank, she was not exactly penniless, but she was close to being penniless.

Because she has to raise a number of children, her expenses are quite high. Now that Bai Chen has given her a sum of money, it will definitely alleviate a lot of her financial pressure.

"Anyway, there's no room for refusal, and it'll just be a good opportunity to complete the relevant tasks for Shencheng Medicine," Raven muttered as he hurried towards his rented room.

She planned to follow Bai Chen's instructions, return to her lodgings, and first use the fake book to summon her own heroic spirit.

Just as Raven left the hotel and got into a taxi, Kiana, wearing a heavy hoodie and bent over, came back.

After the raven triggered the alarm, Shencheng Pharmaceuticals' automated defense system activated, and the unmanned machines engaged Kiana in a fierce battle near the data room. Fortunately, as a pharmaceutical company, it didn't have any particularly advanced defensive machines, and Kiana wasn't heading to the most important drug production line, so the obstacles she encountered were minimal.

After destroying more than a dozen unmanned machines, Kiana escaped from Shencheng Medical Center with only minor injuries. However, upon exiting, she discovered that Shencheng Medical Center had placed a warrant for her arrest by the city police. Therefore, she had to conceal her identity and sneak back.

If she had returned a little earlier, she would have seen the raven that had just left, but unfortunately, the two missed each other.

Bai Chen tidied up the room, turned off the monitor for Kiana, and repainted the summoning circle on the floor. He waited patiently for Kiana to return.

"How did such a simple infiltration mission turn into such a mess?"

Back in his room, sitting on the sofa and panting heavily, Bai Chen took a glass of cola, placed it in front of Kiana, and asked her with a smile.

"Do I need to ask you what happened?"

Although she couldn't be sure what method he used, Kiana knew that the man in front of her must know what she had gone through that night.

Asking her now is just to see her make a fool of herself.

"You've done so many practice tests and learned so many formulas. But instead of memorizing the formulas, you just memorized one question and couldn't even change the parameters. You teleported a perfect 12-meter distance. Isn't that just making yourself a target?" Bai Chen couldn't help but say.

He actually wanted to praise Kiana, but her rigid application of knowledge prevented him from saying anything. To pass a 100-point test, you need at least 60 points; you need more than half!

Otherwise, even if you fill in the answer sheet blindfolded, you'd still need at least 20 or 30 points!

"Hmph, this is the first time. It won't happen again next time," Kiana replied.

“If possible, I still suggest you try to tap into the power of the Herrscher of the Void. The core is within your body, and simply suppressing it is not as good as releasing it. You can try to seize the power from the Herrscher's core, after all, you share the same body.” Bai Chen pointed to Kiana's eyes.

"And you're starting to feel the pressure too, aren't you?"

Kiana's right eye is no longer pure sky blue; you can see wisps of gold patterns that rise and fall in her eye like the tide with her breath.

These golden patterns seemed to contain flames and swirling designs. This was a manifestation of the Herrscher's power overflowing, proving that Kiana's core had begun to activate.

Although Fu Hua can suppress it, the effects of the Godslayer Spear potion will fade in Kiana's body through physiological metabolism. Once the potion completely wears off, how long can Fu Hua suppress it with all her might?

Ultimately, this body was created for the Herrscher of the Void.

"I don't want to become a Herrscher who has lost his mind."

“But the era of the Herrschers has arrived. Are you going to tell the final judgment of humanity, ‘I am not a Herrscher, please spare me and my friends’?” Bai Chen shrugged.

He took a new test paper from under the table and threw it in front of Kiana: "I think you should place your hopes on your own strength, rather than on your future enemies taking pity on you. Take this and do it, or ask that fairy in your head. She should have a lot of good things. It shouldn't be difficult to get her to teach you a move or two, right?"

Kiana looked up in surprise. She had always thought that Bai Chen was unaware of Fu Hua's existence, but it seemed that the class monitor's existence had been known from the very beginning.

“He just met Otto, and I sensed something familiar about him. Go do your homework, Kiana. He’s right. Power is never a sin; whether it’s good or evil depends on the person who wields it.”

Fu Hua's voice rang in Kiana's ear, urging her to leave quickly.

Seeing Kiana about to pick up her test paper and go back to her room to do her homework, Bai Chen added, "If you've thought it through, then come find me. I'm going to play a game with your dear friends, and with your current strength, you're not even qualified to enter."

"What are you going to do to Mei and the others?" Kiana asked in astonishment.

"Ha, who knows? If you want to know, go join yourself."

Chapter Twenty-Seven: Sign the Contract and Become a Servant!

"You felt it too, didn't you? That girl, that Herrscher, carries the Feather of Dust that carries your consciousness."

After Kiana left, Bai Chen inquired about the image of Fu Hua within the feather of his Feather Crossing Dust.

“It’s incredible. You’re right, I did indeed merge with a Herrscher.”

Fu Hua replied thoughtfully.

"But I'm sure of one thing: she's a good girl, even though she's a Herrscher."

“What about me? I’m a good person too,” Bai Chen immediately replied.

Fu Hua looked troubled. Her personality didn't allow her to lie, but if she really had to tell the truth, it would indeed ruin the atmosphere.

"Well, I don't know how you view Herrschers, but I know there have been precedents of Herrschers becoming human. Herrschers aren't necessarily completely hostile to humans... there could be all sorts of reasons for that."

She could only change the subject.

Just then, a familiar mental fluctuation emanated from the inside of the private room. It was the mental fluctuation of the Taixu Divine Sword developed by Fu Hua, with mental patterns like ripples on water, which could be clearly felt even through a wall.

"It seems my relationship with her is really good. I originally thought I would never teach anyone the Taixu Sword Intent again." Fu Hua was a little surprised.

Bai Chen had anticipated this outcome. When Kiana decided to seize power from the core of the Herrscher of the Void, Fu Hua would proactively teach her the Void Sword Intent, which would become Kiana's secret weapon for defeating enemies, essentially a protagonist's cheat code.

According to Fu Hua, everyone's Taixu Sword Intent is different. The most offensive Taixu Sword Intent in history came from Li Sushang, a disciple of the Taixu Sect. Fu Hua's Taixu Sword Intent is characterized by its grandeur and magnificence. As for Kiana, it is probably something like the Heavenly Demon Disintegration Technique.

"If she could learn differential equations, mathematical physics equations, tensor analysis, differential geometry, special functions, complex functions, and integral transforms as well as she learned the Taixu Sword Intent, I wouldn't have wasted so much time on her," Bai Chen muttered, observing the other student's progress.

It was more of a complaint than a rant. Although the Honkai world was undoubtedly a huge world, and he had even prepared to stay there for more than ten or even several decades, Kiana's learning progress was not exactly nonexistent, but rather negligible.

About two months have passed. Two months is enough time for a history student to complete his graduation thesis and win the Nobel Prize!

(This refers to de Broglie, whose story of completing his dissertation in two months and winning the Nobel Prize is a joke in physics, as the rumor claimed his dissertation was only one page long!)

And his Kiana still hasn't learned calculus!

She even had to start learning from derivatives, which made Bai Chen suspect that St. Freya Academy was an art academy where the teaching principle was to try again if you didn't pass the exam, in order to minimize the risk of students losing their jobs if they failed.

“No… Although I’m not entirely sure what those are, even Li Sushang couldn’t learn the complete Nine Chapters on the Mathematical Art back then…” Fu Hua was still defending Kiana.

"The more pure one's mind is, the easier it is to learn the Taixu Divine Sword. It is a clumsy method, so those who are talented in this area often do not have such clever thoughts."

Fu Hua used the most tactful tone to state the fact that Kiana was an idiot, and then retreated back into the feathers of Feather Dust.

"You have no use for the Feathered Dust. You cannot use the Feathered Dust, and I will not teach you the Taixu Divine Sword unless you kill my true form. Otherwise, the Feathered Dust will not easily accept another master."

"I didn't expect Yu Duchen to be able to help me in any way. I just wanted someone to talk to. Can you do that, Immortal Chiyuan?"

"...What a strange Herrscher. Alright, I promise you, I also want to know what Herrschers are really thinking." Fu Hua was a little surprised by Bai Chen's directness, but she still agreed.

This feather is actually a feather used to store memories, including some things that even the current Fu Hua herself has forgotten. Under the influence of these memories, the Fu Hua projection within the feather has a personality that is unexpectedly interested in the outside world.

While the two were talking quietly, Kiana, with the help of the class monitor, had already constructed her own Taixu Sword Intent.

It must be said that Fu Hua's creation of the Taixu Divine Sword after ten thousand years is indeed special. Kiana's control over the energy within her body, as well as her resistance to Sirin's erosion of her will, instantly increased significantly.

Before, she felt like she was guarding a vast ocean, only able to dampen the seawater with the hem of her clothes. Now, she has a large bathtub in her hands, still insignificant compared to the ocean, but at least she can enjoy the water festival.

Spatial fluctuations spread throughout the room, and Bai Chen could see a surge of Honkai energy belonging to the Herrscher of the Void propagating through multidimensional space. These energy particles intertwined and arranged in a specific order, interfering with space and dimensions, distorting and altering the fixed mathematical coordinates that originally constituted space.

This scene reminded Bai Chen of the spacetime curvature and radiation diagram of a black hole. He had once designed to create a black hole using the power of a Herrscher, but unsurprisingly, it failed. Space is not something that can be changed with great precision, and the distortion in Kiana's hands was very crude, but it was still much better than the previous fixed twelve-meter displacement.

Her long silver hair flew behind her, one eye was a clear sky blue, while the other eye shone with a dazzling golden light in the night.

Stars seemed to twinkle in his crimson-gold pupils, revealing the origin of the world and the interruption of space.

"Bai Chen... Teacher, what should we do next?" the girl asked.

For the first time since becoming the Herrscher of the Void, her body was brimming with power. Although this power came from a place she despised, it was undeniable that it was this very power that gave her the possibility of protecting those she wanted to protect.

"Of course, I'm here to be your Servant." Bai Chen took out the fake book he had left for himself.

Chapter Twenty-Eight: Seele, are you embarrassed?

Beneath their feet was a seemingly mysterious magic circle, and in front of them stood a strange man holding a yellowed, old book, muttering incantations.

Kiana felt like she was participating in some kind of bizarre ritual, that she was a sacrifice, and that Bai Chen, who was silently muttering something to her, was like an old wizard in some American jungle who was singing and dancing while holding a poisonous mushroom.

While the Honkai world possesses wondrous Honkai energy, it absolutely lacks anything like magic or witchcraft. In any magical world, a Herrscher would undoubtedly be a top-tier mage or even a god of magic.

As Bai Chen finished reciting the final incantation, the fake book in his hand spontaneously combusted. Pale flames appeared on Kiana's body and eventually entered her.

Kiana didn't experience any changes. She just felt as if a thin membrane was covering her body, which made her feel a little uncomfortable, but it didn't affect her movements.

Because it is bound to a real person, it will not affect Kiana's abilities. However, if she suffers any irreversible and fatal damage within seven days, the fake book will return her to the fixed point in time.

It can be seen as a real resurrection. It must be said that the things produced by the system do have a wonderful and special quality.

Bai Chen clenched his fist. No red lines appeared on his hand, but he could sense that the Honkai energy in his body was constantly draining away in small amounts. It seemed that he had established a connection with Kiana. He felt that by following the channel through which the Honkai energy flowed, he could vaguely sense Kiana's location and physical condition.

This passage can even replenish her Honkai energy, but it's useless to Kiana.

It's a good thing.

Bai Chen couldn't help but have thoughts about the fake book. Using it just to complete a mission was a waste; he really hoped the system could provide more of these items in the future, or at least offer a stable source.

The simulation system lacks an in-game store or currency; it only offers tasks and items obtained as rewards. Bai Chen has to rely on luck to get anything, which is far less convenient than having an in-game store where items can be purchased directly.

"that's it?"

"It's just a safety net. If something unexpected happens during the upcoming ball, this ritual can save you." Bai Chen sat back on the sofa and opened his laptop.

Besides the fake book, there was also a hidden spatial coordinate that was mailed to the members of the Far East Branch along with the courier.

The members of the Far East branch have now received their packages, and it's time for them to use the fake book. A small surveillance drone quietly emerged from the discarded package, following the spatial coordinates, and pointed its camera at Theresa, who was lying in the center of the room drawing a magic circle.

"Is Auntie also preparing this magic circle for you?" Kiana leaned closer to Bai Chen and asked, pointing at Theresa.

Bai Chen nodded: "They also have fake books. Let me see what they can summon."

The three fake books were given to Mei, Bronya, and Theresa respectively. Bai Chen could roughly guess who Bronya would summon, but the identities of the other two remained unknown.

Everyone surrounded Theresa, not because they didn't want to help, but because among them, Theresa's painting skills were the best.

Holding the same type of oil-based pen as Bai Chen, Theresa finally finished the last stroke, albeit with some difficulty.

"This thing is too difficult to draw, and even if it is drawn like this, I don't know if it will work."

The little girl tidied her messy hair and complained to Einstein.

“While I still maintain my opinion that this pattern has no practical significance and may just be a whim of that guy, if you both feel it’s safer to draw it out, I have to say, the difference is quite significant.” Einstein and Tesla looked at the oval magic circle on the ground, exchanged a glance, and couldn’t help but say.

Drawing a circle by hand without a compass is very difficult. Bai Chen was able to do it because he had an extraordinary ability to perceive numbers and shapes. Theresa, on the other hand, clearly did not have this talent, so the circular magic circle she drew was not very regular.
