I, Yuhaka, am hungry!

The girl suddenly opened her eyes and sat up, panting heavily and clutching her chest in terror. She wiped the cold sweat from her brow. In her dream, she saw "herself" transform into a wisp of black smoke and kill the soldiers who had killed her, then kill everyone in the prison, and finally begin killing everyone in the facility.

The thought of those people screaming in agony before they died made the girl involuntarily clench her hands. But at that moment, she suddenly realized that she didn't seem to be in the original prison anymore.

Wait a minute! Wasn't I already dead? Huh? Could it be that everything I just experienced was just a dream?

With this thought in mind, the girl fell into confusion, but soon she remembered that she shouldn't be in a prison.

But why am I in this shabby room now?

Although the house was simply decorated, the furniture inside was quite tidy...

However, just as the girl was about to get out of bed, she realized that she seemed to be naked... and her cheeks immediately turned red.

What's going on?! Why are my clothes gone?! Did I get... you know?!

As the girl was checking her body, Bronya and Sirin pushed open the door and came in. The two girls then saw the girl checking something in a very indecent posture. Of course, the girl also noticed Bronya and Sirin when they opened the door.

Suddenly, the air seemed to freeze.

................................................

In the room where Bronya and Sirin were located in the Pascal machine lifeform village.

Bronya, Sirin, and the beast-eared girl [Rin] whom the two had brought back fell silent. After all, no one would feel comfortable seeing a girl examining their body...

However, it was the kemonomimi girl Rin who spoke first.

"Um...you guys saved me, right?"

Wearing an ill-fitting white shirt and panties, Rin raised her right hand and shook the animal ears on her head, saying this. Although the appearance of animal ears and a tail on her head and buttocks was quite unexpected for Rin, even though her family used to run a shrine, Rin still believed in science.

Um... But from a scientific point of view, it seems that becoming a kemonomimi (animal-eared girl) is related to genetic mutation, right?

Bronya and Sirin looked puzzled after hearing Rin's words. Then Bronya looked at Rin and said:

"Um, Miss Ling, don't you have any memories from before?"

Hearing Bronya's words, Rin was also taken aback for a moment, but quickly replied:

"No, I have memories from before, but..."

Ling recalled the scene of herself lying in a pool of blood. By ordinary human standards, such injuries would have been enough to kill her, right?

But why am I still alive?

Could it really be a dream?

Seeing that Rin looked like she wanted to say something but couldn't, Sirin waved her hand in front of Rin and said:

"Hey~ hey~ what's wrong?"

After regaining her senses, Rin apologized and told Sirin and Bronya what had happened before she was killed by those soldiers. At the same time, Bronya and Sirin heard two very familiar words from Rin.

Those are the words "Honkai" and "Herrscher".

Bronya and Sirin were both stunned when they heard Rin's words. After all, they hadn't expected that the beast-eared girl in front of them was from the Honkai world. At first, the two thought that Rin was from the world of Mishiore and the others, since that giant mechanical life form had invaded Mishiore's world.

However, Bronya and Sirin were both surprised when Rin mentioned that she was called the Twelfth Herrscher by those people. After all, they hadn't expected that the beast-eared girl in front of them was actually a Herrscher or something...

They look so weak, and they didn't sense any Honkai energy from Rin...

Seeing the puzzled looks on Sirin and Bronya's faces, Rin assumed they didn't believe her and said anxiously:

"I'm telling the truth! I was inexplicably locked up by the Fire-Chasing Moths..."

Seeing Ling's anxious expression, Bronya and Sirin exchanged a glance and then nodded, saying:

"Miss Ling, we believe you."

"Mmmmm~"

Hearing Bronya and Sirin's words and seeing their expressions, Rin looked at them with a skeptical expression and said:

"Really?"

Bronya and Sirin nodded and said:

"Yes, after all, we are Herrschers."

"Eh O▽O???"

Hearing Bronya and Sirin's words, Rin looked completely bewildered. She was clearly stunned by what Bronya and Sirin said. Although the members of the Fire Moth claimed to be Herrschers, Rin did not consider herself a Herrscher. However, she was a little frightened by Bronya and Sirin's claim that they were Herrschers.

Chapter 457 [The Bell's Problem]

"Hahaha... Bronya and Sirin are really funny, how could you possibly be Herrschers~"

Rin, sitting cross-legged on the bed, rubbed the back of her head and laughed. For Rin, what Bronya and Sirin said was hard to believe. Although Rin didn't know what the Herrscher looked like, she was still familiar with the Honkai disaster from the previous era of the Honkai world. After all, at that time, there were only three cities left in the human world.

Rin had seen the Honkai Beasts and Death Warriors born from the Honkai on TV, and they all looked terrifying. However, Rin didn't know anything about the strongest Honkai Apostle, the Herrscher. The official information about the Herrscher has never been given by the Firemoth.

So Rin doesn't know what a Herrscher looks like, but she can guess that a Herrscher must look terrifying.

Uh... but thinking about this, Rin also remembered her current appearance. In a sense, she wasn't even human, was she?

But beast-eared girls are cute, so I'm definitely not some kind of Herrscher or anything like that, yeah, definitely not.

perhaps......

When Bronya and Sirin heard that Rin didn't quite believe she was a Herrscher, Bronya made a hand gesture towards Sirin. Seeing Bronya's gesture, Sirin nodded and then snapped her fingers.

Seeing Sirin's actions, Rin subconsciously blinked. In the blink of an eye, Rin found herself in a strange space. Then she saw Sirin, who had just been with Bronya, floating in mid-air in a strange purple and white outfit.

"See that? This is what they call a Herrscher!"

Sitting cross-legged on a floating rock (?), Rin looked up at Sirin, who was floating in the void, with a shocked expression. Sirin originally thought that Rin was frightened by her Herrscher form, but Rin's next words almost made Sirin fall from the sky.

"Ah! A magical girl!"

............................................................

After Bronya and Sirin explained, Rin finally managed to separate the Herrscher from the magical girl. However, upon learning that the Herrscher was like Sirin, Rin found it hard to accept, as it was unimaginable that all Herrschers were cute lolis like Sirin.

If it were a monster like a tentacle monster, it would be understandable, but if it were a cute little loli like Sirin, a magical girl, destroying the world... frankly... this is something Rin doesn't quite understand.

Why would a perfectly normal little girl want to destroy the world?

Regarding this question, Rin also asked Sirin and Bronya why they, as Herrschers, wanted to destroy the world. Upon hearing Rin's question, Bronya explained to her:

"It is not that the Herrscher wants to destroy the world, but that it wants to destroy human civilization."

Upon hearing this, Rin asked why the Herrscher wanted to destroy human civilization. Bronya also knew the answer to this question, since she had learned it from the database carried by Heavy Bunny.

"Well... how should I put it? Most Herrschers have a strong desire for hatred, which is one of the ways in which Herrschers are born."

Upon hearing Bronya's words, Rin couldn't help but recall the scene in her dream earlier that day where she was killed by soldiers.

Why did you kill me?

[I haven't hurt anyone, have I?]

Die! Die, all of you! Die like me!

"Miss Ling? What's wrong?"

Hearing Bronya's voice, Rin snapped out of her reverie and said:

"Huh??? Uh-huh, it's nothing..."

Seeing that Rin looked a little flustered, Bronya wasn't sure what Rin was thinking, but she didn't ask. After all, Bronya thought it might be something Rin was reluctant to say. However, Rin soon asked Bronya and the others a crucial question.

"Um, Bronya, Sirin, may I ask you a question...?"

Hearing Rin's words, Bronya and Sirin exchanged a glance and nodded to indicate that there was no problem. Then Rin took a deep breath and said:

Am I... a Herrscher?

Sirin and Bronya were also surprised to hear the question. They hadn't expected Ling to ask them this question, but they knew they could answer it.

Bronya stroked her chin and looked at Bell, saying:

"Hmm... how should I put it, Miss Ling, you don't really look like a Herrscher right now..."

Hearing Bronya's words, Rin seemed relieved, but Bronya's next words made Rin's heart jump.

"However, although Miss Rin is not a Herrscher, she is not human either..."

"Not...human..."

Ling looked at the pair of pointed fox ears on her head and the four fluffy tails behind her.

Well... in her current form, she really can't be called human, right? She should be called a beast-eared girl, shouldn't she?

She's cute, but if she appears in the human eye like this, she'll be mistaken for a monster or a precious experimental subject, right?

Bronya coughed and said:

"To be precise, it is a pseudo-hero."

Hearing Bronya's words, Rin was also stunned for a moment. Although Rin knew that she was no longer a Herrscher, she did not know what a pseudo-Herrscher was, but judging from the name, it seemed to be related to Herrscher.

Ling's heart jumped at the thought.

Bronya continued:

"Well... although the pseudo-Herrscher is only second to the Herrscher, it should not be underestimated. However, Miss Rin was not affected by the Honkai consciousness."

Hearing Bronya's words, Rin nodded as if she understood, but the Honkai consciousness that Bronya mentioned caught Rin's attention. Rin wondered if Bronya and Sirin, as Herrschers, would be affected by the Honkai consciousness.

Bronya and Sirin both shook their heads at this question. Bronya's birth method meant she was not affected by the Honkai consciousness, while the Honkai consciousness Sirin was affected by was actually Lorrin in disguise, so Sirin was also not affected by the Honkai consciousness.

However, Rin soon remembered the most crucial question: where was her older sister, Sakura?

Chapter 458 [Severe Script Block...]

"Sakura? Who's that?"

Upon hearing Rin's question, a question mark appeared above the heads of the two girls. Seeing the puzzled looks on Bronya and Sirin's faces, Rin almost forgot that the two little girls in front of her didn't know anything about her older sister.

Then Rin inquired about the current situation. Upon hearing Rin's question, Bronya and Sirin gave Rin a look that said, "You just realized that?" Sirin, who was standing nearby, said to Rin:

"You're only just realizing it now? Well... but we can tell you now that Rin, you're not in your original world anymore."

Upon hearing Sirin's words, Ling was stunned for a moment and then dumbfounded.
