Regarding the question of whether one thousand lives are enough to beat Honkai Impact 3rd.

If it weren't very important, why would you subconsciously feel sad?

It's not that she can't suppress her emotions, but if she does, she's not sad anymore, but it's as if she's completely forgotten everything.

Being able to feel sadness and grief is a blessing in itself.

At the very least, it proves that the memory once existed.

Ten minutes later.

The state of meditation has been shattered.

The girl opened her eyes and looked at the person who had opened the door.

Yuno Sato.

A pseudo-law enforcer.

The intense killing intent disturbed Kongming, then subsided into the stillness of his heart and never resurfaced.

She hated the collapse.

With little meaning and memory remaining in life, this hatred becomes ever clearer in all things.

Immortals who protect the land, warriors who fight against the collapse.

In her eyes, everything related to the collapse should be set right.

Sato Yuno herself is not someone Fu Hua dislikes; on the contrary, her earnest and hardworking attitude deserves to be looked at differently.

But the identity of a pseudo-law enforcer is itself a sin.

Humanity, entangled in the Honkai, will eventually fall into the abyss.

A Herald... in the end, will only ever be a Herald.

Because if human will can truly break the shackles of Honkai consciousness through emotion, thus gaining control of the Herrscher's power and might.

Isn't that ridiculous?

If it could really be done, then both the ending back then and the collapse itself would be utterly ridiculous.

That woman...

team leader.

If others can do it, then she can definitely do it too.

The willpower of that outstanding soldier who dragged himself out of that embarrassing situation is beyond question.

Sato Yuno was able to break free from the shackles of the Honkai consciousness not because her willpower far surpassed that of the warrior, nor simply because of the decisive difference between the pseudo-Herrscher and the Herrscher.

Rather, it's because...

feeling.

This elusive yet real decisive factor.

So, was it that I didn't realize something at that time?

How many unseen things did that person bear? During the days she walked alone, I was constantly bound by those delusions and naive thoughts.

Fu Hua couldn't help her in any way, and in the end, until that very moment, all she could see in her eyes was the woman's seemingly carefree smile.

Her eyes failed to see through the woman in the slightest.

Despair and sorrow had already quietly filled the soldier's heart before that incident even happened.

No matter how strong one's willpower is, if there is a weakness, all resistance is already futile.

When Fu Hua discovered the truth hidden in Sato Yuno, her first reaction, besides her instinctive killing intent, was a complex sigh.

Su Qing'an, you did a better job than me.

Your martial arts are still very immature, yet you had already accomplished what I failed to do 50,000 years ago, even before that.

Is the pseudo-hero, Sato Yuno?

Whether it's to live up to the efforts that boy made, or to respect your own human will.

This time, I'll make an exception and look forward to it a little.

She will witness whether the pseudo-Herrschers, standing on the side of humanity, will ultimately face hope or destruction.

If anything unexpected happens, she, as a witness, will take responsibility at all costs.

Sato Yuno said:

"I'm sorry to make this request so soon after you returned, class monitor."

"But I still want to ask, could you please teach me the fighting methods of a Valkyrie?"

"I want to reach the level of an A-rank Valkyrie in a short period of time."

This is an overly boastful declaration. For ordinary students, the A-rank Valkyrie is a level that is difficult to reach even in a lifetime.

In such a world, so-called talent is something completely irrational.

As a pseudo-Herrscher, Sato Yuno would have a much greater advantage than ordinary people if she were to abandon her original advantages and learn human combat methods.

The girl ended her meditation posture and said softly:

"Extremely happy to."

98. Rita's great victory.

St. Freya Academy.

The principal's office.

Theresa is very upset right now.

After resolving the Sacred Mark Space incident, Su Qing'an miraculously woke up on her own not long ago. The whole thing could be said to have achieved a perfect ending with a great victory, and she should have felt happy under such circumstances.

Even though many subsequent processing steps were quite troublesome, and a large number of instruments were corroded and damaged by the fog, resulting in an additional deficit in funding.

But compared to an opponent like the Herrscher, paying such a price is simply too good to be true.

But my feelings still couldn't be controlled.

As for the reasons...

With this woman in front of him, he simply couldn't slack off and watch Houmu Adventure!

And there's the huge amount of extra work that comes with her.

The girl finished signing the last document, then looked up at the guest sitting in front of her and said:

"Is this alright, Miss Rita?"

"I have already explained the details of this incident to His Holiness the Bishop. Due to this large-scale fog erosion, almost all of the equipment at St. Freya Academy needs to be replaced, but the annual funding allocated by headquarters is currently insufficient to do so."

"So, this is the expense report."

Theresa gritted her teeth and emphasized those three words.

Normally, given her position and status, she could have simply signed a document to have all the deficits reimbursed.

But Rita's arrival made things a little less easy.

She arrived at the academy yesterday. The plane landed at the artificial island's airfield, and the wind it created swept across the land as it landed.

The jet-black fuselage was barely visible in the night. As the landing gear safely lowered itself, Theresa, who was in charge of picking up the plane, frowned slightly, a bad feeling creeping into her heart.

When the maid greeted her with a beautiful smile and gave her an elegant and polite bow after disembarking from the plane, her bad premonition reached its peak.

In that instant, she wished she could kick the plane back to the Destiny headquarters.

Rita Roseweather.

An old acquaintance in a certain sense.

But rather than hating this person, Theresa was simply very bad at dealing with her.

For example, even now, despite being forced to take on a lot of unnecessary work and not being able to take advantage of the deficit, Theresa can only make a few exaggerated words to show her displeasure.

It's like a kitten with its fur standing on end, but forced to be meek because of the dried fish, secretly grinding its teeth to express its anger.

Rita smiled and nodded, saying:

"As expected of Lady Theresa, she completed the verification task very quickly."

Seeing Theresa's barely contained anger, the maid's smile deepened.

Theresa is as adorable as ever, making you want to tease her a little.

Well, although she had already done it before this person even thought of it.

Seeing Theresa working so hard all day, Rita already had the idea of ​​going back to make new ornaments.

The general design is a cute, frizzy version of Theresa reluctantly working hard.

Making a few more and distributing them to Lady Durandal wouldn't be bad.

Just as Rita was momentarily lost in thought, Theresa interrupted her.

"Rita, as you can see now, the school's situation has stabilized. As the current S-rank Valkyrie, you should have more important things to do."

The girl's implication was quite clear.

She didn't want such a troublesome person to stay at St. Freya Academy any longer. The academy hid many secrets that couldn't be told to headquarters, and someone as observant as Rita was undoubtedly not suitable to stay at St. Freya Academy for long.

The Third Herrscher, Raiden Mei, cannot be kept secret from headquarters.

K423 was the clone created using Kiana's real genes.

That is, the current Kiana Kaslana. If headquarters cares even a little, her existence cannot be concealed.

The girl's activities in Changkong City were clearly not beyond the eyes of Tianming, and the fact that she is currently safe and sound proves a lot.

That's why Theresa felt such a heavy shadow in her heart when she saw Kiana.

She herself could hardly guess Otto's specific thoughts, but based on her understanding of him, Kiana's future path would likely be influenced by him.

In any case, the fact that they are currently experiencing a peaceful school life means that Otto has no other plans for them for the time being.

Therefore, Theresa's biggest concern was not the two of them, but another student.
