The Herrscher of the Void ruthlessly revealed the truth, and indeed it was.
"You can never save them, because they don't want to be saved."
"Everyone in this theater is like that."
"The world outside this theater is the same, it has never changed."
“Theresa, Siegfried, Cecilia, everyone is the same.”
"Their kindness was trampled by another evil thought, their life's efforts were destroyed overnight, and their firmly held ideals were worthless in the eyes of others."
Faced with a world like this, can you still shamelessly claim to "fight for all the good things in the world"?
"A hypocrite in a grand manner."
The Herrscher of the Void stared coldly at her, her words penetrating everyone's ears and prompting deep reflection.
The world is terrible; it's unfair. Not all kindness will accumulate, and not all good things can exist.
With just a wave of the hand, the high walls that had been built up crumbled, and years of effort were reduced to ashes.
[The screenwriter's technique is incredibly fast, steady, and ruthless; every previously mentioned detail feels like a knife aimed at me... all they did was mention Himeko was a member of the stormtroopers!]
[Herrscher of the Void's speech... I've actually been convinced. That's exactly how those people treat Kiana. Although I understand it from their perspective... why make Kiana suffer like this?]
[Great, brilliant! A true test of humanity.]
[Where are the thousand Herrschers? Let me join you! ?X?X?X?X?X!]
A single spark can start a prairie fire; someone will always take up the torch from those who have fallen!
Fight for all that is good in the world!
[The Queen's words make perfect sense. Can good truly fight evil in reality? Also, after Himeko's death, Kiana really did live only to fulfill Himeko's dream.]
Kallen looked at the Herrscher of the Void's words, fell silent, and closed her eyes.
The raging flames of a thousand tribulations seemed to indicate agreement, but the flames deep within were scorching and bright;
Alicia frowned, then quickly relaxed, as if she had thought of some words to explain herself.
Having switched personalities, Velvi nodded vigorously, joining Mebius in expressing their deepest agreement;
Cecilia sighed heavily, stared blankly at Sirin's purple hair in her hand for a moment, then smiled gently.
Guan Xing shook his feather fan, squinted at the screen, and made no comment.
Theresa tilted her head, looking at the other person with a puzzled expression. She pointed and asked doubtfully, "This person... is it really Sirin? Sirin isn't that good at talking! I was almost convinced!"
Luo Mo narrowed his eyes, looking at the other person.
Did the other side think of this? They've betrayed us? Should he strike first? Destiny can't have such a useless bishop.
Chapter 166 concludes here, the Queen's curtain falls. (5k)
Faced with the Herrscher of the Void's probing questions that struck at the heart, each word seemed to ruthlessly expose the cruel reality of the world, revealing the deepest and most primal evils.
Those who were rescued, protected, and helped still haven't received a heartfelt thank you.
Deception, exploitation, and intertwined
"I'm willing to believe!"
Kiana simply answered firmly, her voice strong and resonant.
It wasn't a fleeting thought, nor was it a stubborn obsession.
She was willing to believe these words, this kindness, this beauty.
“I’ve been dreaming about all sorts of people. I can feel all the echoes of consciousness and fragments of memory left in the core of the Herrscher, their lives, their joys and sorrows.”
"Everyone has painful memories and feels despair in difficult situations. But after that, they will grit their teeth, stand up, and live on, covered in wounds."
"Good and evil are like you and me, existing in everyone's heart, two sides of the same coin, inseparable light and shadow."
"You're right, the world is not a good place."
Therefore, beauty is what people yearn for.
"..." The Herrscher of the Void looked at the resolute other party and remained silent.
"That's my reason."
"It is precisely because good and evil coexist that I must strive even harder to create a tomorrow that transcends tragedy."
"I believe that everyone has the opportunity to make the world a better place. It is precisely because of this that kind-hearted people keep emerging and being passed down from generation to generation."
"Even if my ending isn't beautiful, I've lived a life with a clear conscience and an open and honest heart."
“Many people around me have done this.”
"...It is because of the choices she and they made that I am able to stand here."
"So I am willing to believe, to believe in her ideals, and to believe that what they are protecting is what they are protecting."
"As long as I stand here, her burning, their burning, will continue forever."
"Good is something that needs to be believed in, while evil does not."
Xilin stared directly into the other person's eyes—firm, bright, and piercing—which was...repulsive.
However, only in this way can one be worthy of competing with her, and only then can one be recognized as her other half.
"Yes, but that's precisely why people like you and the Herald of Domination have underestimated the power of belief."
Kiana has come this far with hope, thanks to the kindness and support of countless people around her. No one understands the power of belief better than her.
Good and evil clash with each other.
The Herrscher of the Void and Kiana each held their own version of events and refused to yield.
[Hahaha—I take back what I said earlier, I'm back! Thousand-man Herrscher, take this! Fighting for all that is good in the world!]
[...Although it's often said that villains die from talking too much, even from the Queen's perspective, I never expected Kiana to be so eloquent, actually managing to refute that.]
Kiana has really grown up; she's become someone no one recognizes... We can only see her former self in event storylines.
[No! Please stop hitting him! You can't kill him like this!]
"Heh—it seems that's clear now," the Herrscher of the Void said listlessly, utterly uninteresting.
"There is no room for us to be compatible, and there is no possibility of mutual understanding," Kiana and the Herrscher of the Void said simultaneously.
One is good, the other is evil; they have completely opposite attitudes toward others.
"It's rare that this is perhaps the only topic we can agree on."
"There's no need for further dialogue. Only one of us can remain—you or me."
"Come on, I'm not afraid of you!"
Kiana no longer backs down, nor does she rely on others.
"Hmph. Use all your strength to struggle in vain. This is the time of judgment!"
The Herrscher of the Void snorted coldly and immediately began to attack using her Herrscher powers.
The Void Spear emerged from the black hole and shot towards Kiana. Kiana drew her twin pistols, dodging and firing at Sirin as she took the opportunity to retaliate.
After such a long time, neither side can convince the other.
The struggle between consciousnesses ultimately ended in a battle.
[Will the Herrscher's campaign ultimately return to the battlefield?]
The debate between the two was so captivating that I momentarily forgot about their relatively low levels of education... How insightful! I kept switching between their camps.
Are Kiana and Sirin really attending St. Freya School? I've never had a class like that at the academy!
At Cecilia's house, Sirin sat quietly on the sofa, watching the two clash in the game, unusually falling into silence.
“Cirin, they all say it’s an extension of your consciousness, but no matter which side it is, they all seem to be more eloquent than you.”
Cecilia exclaimed, a hint of wonder in her eyes.
Whether it's the Herrscher of the Void representing evil or Kiana representing good, their words all make sense, and their wills are strong enough.
Of course, she's definitely more on Kiana's side.
The character she portrays embodies everything a Valkyrie needs, both in her words and actions.
"What does that have to do with me? In the end, we still have to fight it out..."
Xilin said helplessly, her random thoughts interrupted. She looked at the children her mother described, who seemed to resemble other people's children, but both of them had inextricable ties to her.
She doesn't even have a specific target of hatred!
"That's because neither side has said anything to the other. Take Otto's argument with the Herrscher of Knowledge, for example. If you can't win an argument, you can only retreat obediently, right?"
Cecilia patted Sirin's head and smiled gently.
Although she always teased Sirin, the fact that the Herrscher of the Void in the game wasn't entirely Sirin still relieved Sirin, something she noticed.
Cecilia could naturally guess what Cecilia was worried about.
"...Mom, do you think...I should also face up to that Honkai, like Kiana in it, she was really brave."
Celine lowered her head, her fingers fidgeting, hesitant and unsure of what to do.
But she felt she couldn't be as steadfast and yearning for beauty as Kiana.
She only felt kindness and goodwill in Cecilia's family. She was still afraid to approach others, afraid of hurting them, and afraid of losing them.
“Those are just their memories, but for you, they are real injuries that happened to you… I won’t force you to do anything, but you are my daughter, and I will support you, whether you run away or face it…”
Cecilia spoke softly, her words gently soothing Sirin's heart, allowing her to relax and calm down.
"You've already taken steps in Changkong City and in the matter of Lixue, haven't you? Little Xilin~ Don't think too much about it. Just do it one step at a time. Even if others don't remember, Mom will record Xilin's growth."
"Take your time, I believe in you."
Cecilia pressed her forehead against Celine's, warmth emanating from their smooth skin.
“…Mmm.” Xilin hummed softly through her nose. She didn’t know what she could do, but as long as she was by her mother’s side, nothing else mattered.
