The girl's seemingly calm yet resolute murmur echoed throughout the theater; even the deafening roar of shattering chains could not mask the unwavering determination in her voice.

The girl wielded her greatsword, weaving and slicing through the heavily entangled chains, shattering those chains that sought to destroy the sun.

"They guided me and proved to me that the world isn't so bad."

With each murmur, the flames unleashed by the greatsword in the girl's hand shattered the Herrscher's "power of despair," personally severing the seemingly unstoppable "natural disaster"!

The ferocious colossus raised its head, its scarlet eyes suddenly flashing with a terrifying red light, and the barrage of attacks constructed from the power of the Herrscher engulfed the girl's figure!

"I love them, and I love everything they love."

Yet amidst the roar, only the girl's unwavering murmur remained unchanged. The sword, transformed into raging flames, embodied the bond and trust between the girl and her companions, leading her to break through the encirclement!

"This sword connects us; it will burn away the darkness of the sky and let the light shine further!"

In the blink of an eye, like the aurora flashing between night and day, this special theater where the power of the Herrscher of the Law manifested was severed amidst burning flames and resolute blades!

As the Herrscher of Domination unleashed its most powerful force upon the girl, Kiana's azure eyes reflected that terrifying light!

However, the only response the Herrscher of Dominion received was her unwavering resolve.

That was a promise Kiana made to Bronya, to Mei, to Himeko, to Theresa, to Fu Hua, to her mother, to her father, to the people she loved, and to the people she had to protect.

She wants to live in this cruel world and change this imperfect world into the way she desires!

As the Herrscher of Domination unleashed its full power, engulfing the girl's figure, and as the blades came to a standstill in this confrontation, the figures of her companions appeared behind Kiana!

Fu Hua, Bronya, Mei, and Theresa—their hands transferred power to Kiana, imbuing the sword in her hand with an invincible spirit!

"This is the way home for me and everyone else!"

The explosive burst of fireworks shattered the Herrscher's cannon fire! Amidst the falling meteors, a sword's edge descended from the sky!

Just like her mentor who had given his all back then, the greatsword in the girl's hand inherited her mentor's will and slashed at the Herrscher of Domination, slashing at this ferocious colossus!

As the girl's roar accompanied by fireworks illuminated the entire theater, the figures of Bronya and Fu Hua, who had fallen unconscious, were also lit up.

When the blades struck the defenses that the Herrscher of Dominion had built up, and when they struck the last bit of power that the Herrscher of Dominion could muster, the Herrscher of Dominion was already heading towards its end in the girl's raging flames!

As the girl's sword erupted in fiery flames, a rose-like figure quietly appeared beside Kiana.

Like Bronya, Mei, Fu Hua, and Theresa, she is always by Kiana's side, fighting alongside her at this moment.

Her figure was no longer beside the girl, but had transformed into the raging fire in her hand.

Along with the ever-burning flame in the girl's heart, it transforms into the power to protect her cherished possessions, accompanying her throughout her life.

This was the last thing she could do as a teacher, and it was also what she hoped for throughout her life: the passing on of the torch.

She was reborn from the flames, she perished in the flames.

She smiled and gazed into the fire, saying nothing more.

As the girl's astonished gaze transformed into unwavering resolve, the burden she carried on her shoulders and the flame of inheritance within her heart burned with unprecedented fervor.

The path beneath her feet was one she had to walk, a path of darkness she had to cut through to repay her mentor!

"With this fierce fire, I will kill everything!"

The girl's roar became the final curtain call, and in an instant, a grand firework that destroyed and engulfed the Herrscher of Domination swallowed the entire Domination Theater, leaving only blinding daylight after the dazzling flames!

…………

As the ruins of the Dominion Theater slowly fell from the sky, it was as if the clouds had finally been parted, preventing darkness from shrouding the earth, and the sun shone with the light of hope.

The Herrscher of Domination ultimately succumbed to the unwavering resolve that shone like the sun; in the end, humanity's will to fight against the Honkai and protect the good triumphed over the natural disaster.

Its final, resounding roar became a salute to celebrate the girl's rebirth—

A salute to the birth of the Flamebringer!

………………

………………

The birth of the Herrscher of Flame ignites the flames of tomorrow.

"This is the birth of the Herrscher of Flame..."

As everyone gazed at the white light that faded as Kiana slew the Herrscher of Dominion on the light screen, they were still savoring the exhilarating scene they had just witnessed.

The girl's roar and unwavering resolve seemed to still echo in their ears; that unyielding will to fight against the Honkai, that greatsword that cleaved through the darkness and brought forth light, seemed to ignite a flame within their hearts as well.

This is the birth of the Flamebringer, and the profound meaning behind the name "Flamebringer," setting him apart from other Herrschers.

From a pitiful creature forced to resurrect as Queen Sirin, to a resolute fighter who defeats Sirin, and finally to the Herrscher of the Flame who unites her companions and inherits their will to ignite the flames of life.

Although the images displayed on the light screen were incomplete and many of the causes and consequences of the events were not clearly explained, everyone witnessed Kiana's growth along the way.

They are now even more curious about what Kiana has gone through to be able to walk so firmly and forge her own path of light in this dark world.

Just as everyone was filled with emotion, a line of text popped up on the screen:

[Counter: I almost forgot about Bronya who flashed by, Herrscher x5]

Chapter Seventy-Three: Persecution of Spain Enraged Spain

"..."

Bronya sensed an extremely strong malice.

Everyone else had their own dedicated counting screen, but she was only briefly mentioned, and it was even specifically brought up that she was "almost forgotten."

Is this considered desecrating a corpse? Or is it mockery?

After being reminded by the counter, everyone remembered that Bronya's Herrscher form and Fu Hua's Herrscher of Consciousness powers had indeed appeared in the scene.

However, because the scene of Kiana wielding a sword and fighting the Dominator Colossus was so eye-catching, everyone almost forgot that there was such a little girl in the picture.

Although both Bronya and Fu Hua only made brief appearances in the Domination Theater, supporting Kiana's power, Fu Hua at least had a previous role as the Herrscher of Knowledge.

Although it wasn't Fu Hua herself, the wild and cool visuals were unimaginably powerful.

On the other hand, what about Bronya?

She was defeated in the theater of domination, her Herrscher core was stolen, and she was hung up as a puppet, used by the enemy as a tool to provoke and humiliate Kiana.

Is there anything more humiliating than this?

A shadow fell over Bronya's seemingly expressionless face, and Kiana and the others beside her quickly comforted her.

………………

………………

Silver Wolf, held by the Star Core Hunter, stared wide-eyed at the light screen. She had originally thought that her counterpart would have a place in the Herrscher's inventory, allowing her to showcase a cool and stylish scene.

Who would have thought that her counterpart in the light screen would actually be the one being persecuted?

I was humiliated from beginning to end, is there any justice left?!

Kafka, standing to the side, silently averted her gaze, a hint of barely suppressed emotion flickering at the corners of her mouth, yet she still managed to feign comforting Silver Wolf.

…………

Inside the Belloborg, Bronya Rand stared at her "younger self" on the light screen, her brows furrowed.

“oO?”

Aren't the Herrschers appearing in the light curtain all world-destroying beings, seemingly synonymous with some kind of catastrophe, like the "core" of this world?

Mastering the power of a Herrscher is akin to mastering a star core; Beloberg is protecting that being that brings terrifying natural disasters.

The arrival of the Star Core caused the planet Arilor to be swallowed by the cold wave, leaving only the humans in Beloberg barely clinging to life. This gives an idea of ​​just how terrifying a Herrscher who wields the power of the Star Core truly is.

Yet, even with such power, Bronya, who has become the Herrscher of Reason, is still used as a tool for persecution in the scene?

Although Bronya knew it wasn't her, seeing the person with her face suffer was still a strange feeling.

Those who came for her previous "Silvermane Iron Guard recruitment video" also looked at her strangely after seeing Bronya's humiliating performance in the video.

However, most of the people's eyes were filled with pity and sympathy, feeling sorry for Bronya, a high-ranking Silvermane Guardian and heir to the High Warden, who had such a heartbreaking past.

…………

In the lower city of Beloborg, Seele, enraged within the flames, rang her scythe!

Although she didn't know the concept of "isotope," Bronya had grown up with her in the orphanage when they were young.

Seele, Bronya's best friend, knew that Bronya had not experienced the scenes shown on the light screen when she was young.

So Seele guessed it was someone who looked extremely similar to Bronya, but seeing someone who resembled her best friend suffer such a setback still made her unable to contain her anger!

That's someone who has Bronya's face, so if that person in the picture makes a fool of themselves, it's the same as their friend Bronya making a fool of herself!

…………

Not only was Seele in the Honkai Universe furious, but Seele, still lost in the Sea of ​​Quanta in the Honkai Universe, also bit her lip, angered by the fact that her sister Bronya in the scene was being used as a tool.

She only hated her own powerlessness, how she was trapped in the Sea of ​​Quanta, unable to get out, unable to help her sister Bronya, and causing Bronya to look so embarrassed in the scene.

………………

………………

"Bronya, you don't need to be sad. Look, in the scene just now, you were standing behind me, giving me strength."

"Being able to fight alongside trusted partners is the greatest help."

Kiana comforted Bronya

After everyone at St. Freya Academy comforted Bronya, Fu Hua secretly wiped away her sweat.

Although the appearance of the Herrscher of Knowledge in the scene was somewhat unexpected, thankfully, no one noticed her appearance as the Crimson Iris Sage.

In the scene, whether it's the white-haired woman fighting alongside Kiana, or the crimson feathers protecting Kiana, they all reveal another identity she has hidden from the people of St. Freya Academy:

He has controlled the Divine Key—Feather Dust—since the beginning of the last civilization.

The Crimson Iris Immortal who has protected China for a thousand years
