To create Honkai Impact 3rd in a world where Kallen exists.

They would also secretly call on all of Durandal's fans to vote.

Clearly, Rita has made her choice between the two.

Theresa...she ultimately failed, an endless cycle of failure.

...

"Hua, you've changed."

"maybe..."

The first words spoken by the two, who hadn't seen each other for a long time, in the city shrouded in yellow sand, were as they looked at each other.

Comrades who hadn't seen each other for many years were now standing on opposite sides.

The scene changed, and the two found themselves high in the sky.

“Feather Dust…you know, it can’t interfere with my senses.”

That being said, Kevin had no intention of stopping Fu Hua's actions.

He can be ruthless towards others; but he won't easily take action against his comrades.

Fu Hua stepped forward, standing as still as a mountain, and slowly stretched out her hand, palm facing upward.

Kevin watched without stopping the other person, a hint of nostalgia in his eyes—it was the figure who had fought alongside him countless times before.

Behind Fu Hua, countless figures from different periods of her life appear.

There's the black and white dress she tailored herself during the Lunar New Year, where she's practicing her skills; there's the Shadow Knight Moon Wheel during her mission in Destiny, her entire body covered in black armor, solemn and chilling; there's the simple light blue training clothes from the academy, and there's also the Misty City Swift Feather outfit she wears when she's a detective investigating a case.

The final piece that came to mind was the Cloud Ink Heart Attire—the very attire she wore for the longest time in the Divine Land, as an immortal and a protector of the Divine Land.

Fu Hua showed Kevin her journey over the years, and these feelings and experiences were genuine.

Then, she unleashed that move...

The curtain suddenly fell, but Fu Hua's actions were not shown.

Kevin looked at the last remaining, half-illusory, barely-there feather in his hand.

Fu Hua's final move failed; she had already lost the strength to sustain it.

"We could have witnessed together the day when humanity triumphed over the Honkai."

"You've already given so much, you need to rest."

"You don't need to worry about what happens from now on. I will complete our mission."

Kevin spoke to the empty surroundings, his eyes gazing nostalgically at the feather.

Perhaps only in front of his former comrades would he reveal so many emotions.

...

"As expected, Kevin and Hua did start fighting, but thankfully, neither of them was hurt."

Alicia patted her chest, her breasts jerked slightly, then returned to calm.

The game's plot clearly indicated that Kevin would stand against the protagonists.

But Alicia was thankful that he was still the same Kevin, still treating his comrades with kindness.

They did nothing against China, but instead allowed the other side to prepare for an attack.

"Heh—I'd like to see just how powerful that attack was, whether it was as strong as that ice block made it out to be."

Qian Jie snorted coldly, his eyes burning with a thirst for battle.

If Fu Hua is really that strong, then wouldn't he have another person to hone his skills against?

"Qian Jie... stop thinking about fighting your comrades." A gentle voice came through, and he confirmed it was the person he hated the most.

“Aponia—, humph, mind your own business.” Qianjie ignored the annoying nun.

"But... Fu Hua, do you really have so many clothes? And every single one of them looks so appropriate on her,"

Alicia glanced at Hua, who was sitting quietly on the sofa watching, out of the corner of her eye. She really wanted to make all those clothes and dress Hua up nicely in real life.

"Hmm~" Hua looked around and felt a sense of malice coming from him, but how could there be enemies in the Golden Courtyard?

Hua gazed calmly at the figure in the game who resembled her; the other's rich and varied experiences filled her with envy.

Compared to herself, Fu Hua seems to have lived a more meaningful life.

"Besides, has Fu Hua really changed? I don't see it at all,"

Alicia whispered, comparing Fu Hua's appearance in the game with that of the real-life Fu Hua.

Judging from her experience of never needing to measure her size when choosing clothes, Fu Hua hasn't changed much.

As for whether it's right or wrong... don't underestimate a girl's shopping prowess!

Her eyes are the ruler; Fu Hua has absolutely not changed.

"Is it possible, hmm~"

Eden glanced around cautiously, making sure no one else was listening, before whispering, "Kevin, she was referring to Fu Hua's change in temperament and language, right?"

"Uh—" Alicia's face stiffened. Had her words just been heard?

"I... of course I know, my dear Eden, I was just joking."

Alicia explained repeatedly, saying she didn't know whose problem she had picked up, but lately she always wanted to see the people around her show a different expression.

...

[Putting everything else aside for now, what's that last one? It's truly ethereal, miHoYo, I urge you to release this new armor quickly!]

The last one really looks like an immortal! He perfectly matches my image of an immortal, I need to spend money on him right now!

Why are all the games in China just trashy reskinned games? Can't they at least release a decent solo chapter featuring the Crimson Kite Immortal?

Players' focus is clearly on Fu Hua's final display of her outfits and journey, all of which will be witnessed.

"Master? That person, is he your friend?"

Cheng Lixue asked cautiously, noticing that her master's expression was somewhat unpleasant.

"...Yes, he was my former comrade-in-arms, the kind who often fought side by side."

"Huh? Your former comrade-in-arms?" Li Xue looked at Fu Hua. She didn't expect that the Crimson Phoenix Immortal would also have comrades-in-arms. Could there be someone who could fight alongside her?

In her heart, her master was always the epitome of strength, even when they lost in the game.

But anyone with eyes can see that it was just a feather from the master.

It's not like he's a master in his full potential, so what's there to say?

"This matter dates back quite a while. Have you heard of the pre-civilization?... " Fu Hua sighed and began to recount the story.

But the scene in Sky City that day still lingered in his mind. Kevin... should he still fight?

Kevin couldn't bear it, and how could she? She had always followed him through countless battlefields, always seeing that reliable and trustworthy figure...

...

Before Kevin could even chase after Kiana, the blonde Valkyrie was already standing in front of him.

"You, buddy, are you the leader of the World Serpent?" Durandal twirled her spear and said in a low voice, looking at Kevin in front of her.

“Come on,” Kevin said coldly.

"as you wish!"

A battle between the two is imminent.

This is clearly a scene that viewers have been eagerly anticipating.

What is the battle between the strongest like?

Durandal hasn't experienced as many disasters as Fu Hua and doesn't have serious health problems, so the battle between the two is sure to be exceptionally exciting.

The perspective suddenly shifts to the clouds.

Countless black ice crystals stood on the ground; before anyone knew it, the area was covered in snow and ice, a vast expanse of white.

Kevin stood high atop the ice crystals, looking down at the blonde Valkyrie before him.

But the fact that the other party caught his eye speaks volumes about their strength.

He slowly opened his eyes, raised his hand, and crimson Honkai energy surged forth, countless ice crystals piercing out from beneath Durandal's feet.

But she dodged them all, and quickly ran towards Kevin, gathering power in her hands.

With a sudden push, using the recoil to make close contact with the opponent, and then blasting straight at them.

But Kevin raised his hand, and a blue defensive shield blocked her attack. In the next instant, it was she who was sent flying backward, while Kevin remained completely unmoved.

That was just a test.

Durandal quickly recovered from the impact and launched another counterattack.

Their punches clashed like meteors, separating only to strike each other again in an instant. For a time, it was impossible to determine a winner.

Durandal used her Stand's attack to knock Kevin to the ground.

Then a huge red phantom of a lance was summoned from above, its tip pointing directly at Kevin. This movement seemed to tear through the sky, bringing out a chilling darkness.

Kevin's eyes narrowed, and he conjured a golden light in his left hand, then swung it upwards, disintegrating the illusory lance from within.

The two switched places, staring intently at each other, exuding their full power.

It also shows that in battles between true masters, every move can change the environment.

Just as everyone was anticipating what the next battle would bring, a blond man slowly stepped out, a mysterious smile on his face.

He stopped Durandal, preventing the battle from escalating.

With the elegance of an old-time nobleman, she said gracefully, "Leader of the World Serpent, you have fully demonstrated your power."

"In that case, I must return the courtesy..."

"I am Otto Apocalypse, the current Bishop of Schicksal."

...

"Otto? Making a move now?"
