Her armor was damaged from the attack by the Herrscher of the Void, her red hair was disheveled, and even her body was covered with dangerous Honkai energy patterns, but Himeko's will did not weaken in the slightest.
She straightened up: "Is your attack over? Well then, it's my turn now, no objections?"
The Herrscher of the Void covered her face with her hands, letting out an even more disdainful laugh—how dare a weak mortal presume to attack her, a Herrscher?
Her golden eyes blazed with undisguised killing intent: "Die!"
(Nanden: You're not allowed to say those kinds of things to Himeko!)
[Countless imaginary gates appeared around Himeko, from which countless sub-void spears reappeared and shot towards her.]
Himeko recalled the weapon she had just unleashed and attached it to the blade of her greatsword.
"Kiana, when you wake up, you'll see that everything has changed. You'll find that the world is no longer beautiful, and those ordinary days will be gone forever."
Flames ignited on Himeko's sword as she swung it forcefully, burning all the Void Spears to ashes.
"But don't give up, never give up."
The Herrscher of the Void couldn't help but roar, "Stop standing there, getting carried away!"
She condensed a cube of imaginary energy, accelerated it with a field, and launched it towards Himeko.
Himeko shattered the incoming attack, leaped high into the air, and swung her Rebellious Sword towards the god.
The Herrscher of the Void grew even more enraged; she transformed the Void Spear into ribbons, attempting to intercept Himeko.
Although this left Himeko with numerous bloody welts, the life-burning Himeko was fearless. She cleaved through the ribbons with her sword, charging towards the Herrscher like a crimson comet.
How could the Herrscher of the Void accept being forced to this extent by a mere mortal? She gathered all the surrounding Honkai energy, forming a spiral that hurtled towards Himeko.
"Drink it!"
Himeko's sword collided with the final attack, rushing into it, and at that moment, one figure after another appeared before her eyes.
Theresa, Raiden Mei, Fu Hua, Bronya—these are the most important people in her heart.
They were calling out their own names.
Of course, there's also Kiana, whom she misses most at this moment.
Kiana turns around, her face adorned with her uniquely pure smile: "Aunt Himeko, I'm going to become the strongest Valkyrie!"
Hearing these calls, a power seemed to surge within Himeko's body. She roared, raised her flaming sword, and flames, like wings of light, erupted behind her.
The next moment, Himeko shattered all the obstacles erected by the Herrscher of the Void, leaving her only able to watch helplessly as Himeko hurtled towards her like a star made of flames.
"Kiana, lift your head and keep moving forward. Go and turn this imperfect story into the one you desire!"
"Live on... Kiana..."
When the Herrscher of the Void opened her eyes, she realized she hadn't been hit by the attack. Before her lay only Himeko, utterly exhausted and on the verge of death.
As for the greatsword, it was stuck in the ground behind her.
[Crack. 】
The greatsword shattered into pieces, and Himeko collapsed forward, uttering her last words.
"...This is the final lesson..."
Realizing she had been frightened, the Herrscher of the Void gritted her teeth in shame and shoved aside the teacher who was trying to give her student one last hug: "You!"
Himeko fell helplessly into the void, her eyes lifeless, but a faint smile lingered on her lips.
Himeko has accomplished what she was willing to give her life for.
At this moment, the Herrscher of the Void realized that the God-Slaying Spear had been injected into her body.
[Honkai energy erupted, and the Herrscher of the Void let out a furious roar of defiance, trying to stop it all, but it was too late; her will was suppressed.]
[Beneath the roar of the Herrscher of the Void, however, lay the mournful wail of a student who had lost his revered master.]
[After losing the power of the Herrscher of the Void to sustain it, the imaginary space that served as the battlefield gradually dissipated. Himeko, who had already burned out, returned to her original place along with the collapse of space, falling into the blue sky like a shooting star.]
[Nandeng was already sobbing uncontrollably: "Did she walk in the opposite direction?"]
"No... I didn't start playing this game to kill Himeko!"
[At the end of the video, a comment appeared: "Among all the playable characters, only Himeko's dodge is a forward movement by default. Aside from Shinku, only Shinku's dodge is a backward movement. That's because Shinku doesn't want to hurt Kiana."]
The people in front of the screen also began to sob, just like Nanden.
[Honkai Impact 3rd: Star Railway] Himeko: So, this is my ending in another world. No wonder sometimes I felt that Welt's attitude towards me was a little strange.
[Einstein: The serum injected into the Herrscher was probably used to suppress Honkai energy... If Himeko had used it on herself at the end, she should have been able to survive.]
Kiana clung tightly to Himeko, refusing to let go.
[Honkai Impact 3rd Himeko: Okay, I'm right here, I won't disappear.]
[Kiana: But, but... Himeko-sensei, you clearly said that if a comrade loses her mind and is controlled by Honkai, you must end her life without hesitation, but why... why...]
[Honkai Impact 3rd Himeko: Because you are my student, Kiana.]
She smiled gently as she gazed at Kiana.
[Honkai Impact 3rd Himeko: If I could, I'd really like to take a graduation photo with you all.]
[Kiana: I can do it! I won't let Himeko-sensei leave!]
If Himeko really leaves, she must find a way to bring her back.
Of course, one should not harm others like Otto did.
[Keqing: I have a deeper understanding of the term "ship's accomplice" now.]
[Black Tower: Wait, isn't that the broken greatsword from our space station?]
[Dr. Mei: It seems the connection between our two worlds didn't happen by chance. If only we knew the conditions for that connection.]
[Nilu: This music is just too perfect. I was barely able to hold on, but as soon as I heard the song, I couldn't help myself.]
[Jingyuan: He could have destroyed the Herrscher of the Void with his final sword strike, but he refrained from doing so to save his students. How gentle of him.]
[Wendy: Yes, and I don't know if you guys noticed, but during the final blow, what Himeko saw wasn't the enemy, the Herrscher before her, the oncoming attack, or the torrent of the void, but rather the people who loved her and whom she loved.]
[Yomiya: Stop talking, she's already crying.]
[Fu Xuan: A mortal body, yet comparable to gods, Lady Himeko, you are a true teacher.]
[Raiden Mei: Why, in the end, was no one able to catch Himeko-sensei...? It must have been so lonely for Himeko-sensei to fall alone.]
[Congratulations to Himeko Murata for obtaining one vial of SCP-500 [Panacea] and a natural stigmata that is compatible with her body.]
Himeko felt a powerful force surging through her body and learned about the medicine that had appeared in her hand.
[Theresa: Natural stigmata? Great, Himeko, that way you won't need to use artificial stigmata anymore!]
Chapter 39 The Legend of the Traffic Lights
[Seemingly sensing the heavy atmosphere, the next video's title was clearly quite irreverent.]
[“Iron Collapse: A Large-Scale Documentary – Give Him a Pair of Speed Shoes, and He Dares to Solo the Seven Star Gods!”]
[Bronya (Honkai Impact 3rd: Star Railway): This, isn't this the automaton beetle that's common in the lower zones? Are they called traffic lights in that world? That's quite a fitting nickname.]
[Paimon: You Beloberg guys are amazing! You can solo seven Celestials with just random grunts!]
[Keqing: That's probably an exaggeration.]
[Bronya (Honkai Impact: Astral Railway): According to records, this is merely an automated machine unit pieced together using technology left over from the old world. Its most distinctive feature is the signal lights mounted on its moving limbs. It was used for resource gathering or construction operations and did not possess strong combat capabilities.]
[(Honkai Impact: Star Railway) Seele: That's right. Although these guys can create field shields to protect themselves, they're not difficult to deal with.]
The video begins with a black-and-white filter showing an automaton beetle perched on Tingyun's waist.
"Give it a shield, and it can use its head to pierce the Death Star God."
"It's the first shield of the Ironclad, the traffic light, that runs rampant on Yalilo VI."
"Legend has it that when the traffic light system was invented, it not only dealt a devastating blow to the game's auto-battle system, but also made countless pioneers realize what true dedication to preservation meant."
[A character illustration was displayed on the screen—it was Jepard's illustration, but Jepard's head had been photoshopped onto the traffic light robot.]
[Seele, known as the "Big Head Launcher," once commented on the traffic light: "Of all the enemies I've faced, only it can forcibly pause my turn. As long as the shield exists, even if you smash my head to pieces, you can't break through this terrifying fortress before you."]
"Even in the sixth simulated universe, Cocolia couldn't hide her fear of traffic lights, her face pale as she declared that if given a pair of speed boots, she could single-handedly take on the seven Star Gods."
[“General Douglas MacArthur, a famous five-star general of the United States, openly stated that if you have one traffic light, you can dominate the entire lower district; if you have ten traffic lights, the Grand Guardian will have to give way to you; and if you have 100 traffic lights, Cripper will have to kowtow to you and even serve you tea and water.”]
["Just who exactly is the Traffic Light? Why does it utter the only trash talk in the entire game in Ironclad? The epic documentary 'The Single-Defense Ceiling - The Legend of the Traffic Light' is now airing."]
[Many comments were displayed after the video ended.]
[It attacks Jingyuan with its shield, Jingyuan uses its E skill – no damage; it attacks Jingyuan again, Jingyuan uses its ultimate skill – no damage; it attacks Jingyuan again, Shenjun uses his ultimate skill – no damage.]
[It's really ridiculous to have Seele on auto-attack; she often uses her ultimate on the shield.]
I remember this shield is called the Amber Shield. There's a similar shield in Echoes of Fate. Its characteristic is that it's very thin and shatters easily, but it can completely withstand that one attack.
[The Rakshasa's ultimate skill deals area-of-effect damage and breaks shields before dealing damage, making it very effective against traffic lights.]
[Downward, it can only withstand one arrow in three months; upward, it can block one bow of wind. Is this what protection is?]
[I really don't understand why this barrier mechanism is so strong. It's one thing to block one instance of damage, but it blocks multiple instances, additional damage, and splash damage—any damage triggered within a single attack. Isn't that a bit too outrageous?]
[The concept of this skill is this: if it says it can block one attack, then it really can block one attack. Even if it's a planet-destroying blow, it'll block it.]
[Comparable to the insane 360-degree defense of the shield-wielding Hilichurl next door.]
[Aha: Haha, this is so embarrassing!]
[Masked Fool A: Where's the documentary? There's only a trailer! I want to watch the documentary!]
[Star: Jingyuan, you, as the general of the Immortal Ship, can't even handle a mere robot?]
[Jing Yuan: This robot can even block arrows from the Emperor's Bow, please spare me.]
But judging from this description, does the player seem a bit weak in the game?
What seems like a misfortune may actually be a blessing in disguise. If the future enemies of the Immortal Ship underestimate us because of this, it might not be such a bad thing after all.
