"To be realistic, he's more useful than you. Of course, he'll be sent to the underworld by me sooner or later."

After stomping on and breaking the neck of Fueki Kanade, Kouyu spoke to Fueki Kanade's corpse.

"Go down now. Otto will come to join you sooner or later."

After dealing with the mastermind behind the incident, Gu Yu looked at the Philosopher's Stone in his hand and crushed it in one swift motion.

“Kanade Fueki is dead. And without the Philosopher’s Stone, even if Otto has figured out how Fueki started the Witch’s Feast, he cannot create a second Philosopher’s Stone.”

"At least we shouldn't have to worry about what will happen next; he probably won't cause any trouble in this area."

As the Philosopher's Stone was crushed by Gu Yu, a large amount of magic power erupted around it and rushed into Gu Yu's body.

Feeling his body filled with magical power, Gu Yu immediately drew a card and threw it into the driver.

"Let's give it a try, if my guess is right..."

At the moment Gu Yu completed the armor switch, a large amount of magic power flowed from Gu Yu's body and attached itself to his armor.

However, this time, the full dragon shaman on Gu Yu's body underwent a drastic change after the magic power within Gu Yu's body erupted.

After the diamond-like armor replaced Gu Yu's full dragon armor, it combined with the magic power erupting from Gu Yu's body and completed its condensation.

"It's ironic, really. The one who robbed Fueki Kanade of hope has awakened this form instead?"

After cleaving Fueki Kanade's corpse into pieces with a single blow of the Brilliant Axe Sword, Kouyu, having deactivated her transformation, looked at everything on the ground and said with self-deprecation.

“Even after he died, I had to destroy the evidence to prevent others from using his body to cause trouble.”

"That's enough. This matter is finally over. Now..."

"We need to think carefully about how to deal with that brat."

………………

After contacting Theresa and Raiden Mei, Yae Sakura, who originally intended to stay put, suddenly felt a slight tremor coming from the pseudo-Herrscher core within her body.

When a pseudo-Herrscher stands before a genuine Herrscher, they are more likely to feel the pressure from their superior.

Therefore, after Yae Sakura jumped out of the card control space, the pressure emanating from Kiana and Anna made her feel quite uncomfortable.

But at this moment, Yae Sakura sensed it.

Unlike the two Herrschers in front of me who had suppressed their Herrscher personalities and were depleted of Honkai energy...

A fully-fledged Herrscher is approaching this location!

Moreover, this sense of oppression... is much stronger than that of Mei and Wendy!

"Everyone, watch out!"

After placing her hand on the hilt of her sword, Yae Rin coldly addressed Himeko Murata and Chen Tianwu.

"Especially Major Himeko and this gentleman, you two should step back immediately!"

"This oppressive feeling... If I were to fight these visitors now, I cannot guarantee your safety!"

"That serious?!"

Himeko, who already knew Yae Sakura's strength, immediately frowned upon hearing this.

"According to your logic, there is a fifth Herrscher in Sky Dome City?"

"Wait a minute, have there been any major collapses in the past few days??? When did a new Herrscher awaken?"

"There was no major collapse... but Major Himeko..."

"Did the fact that all four of you awakened at the same time mean you encountered a large-scale Honkai?"

Himeko was stunned after hearing Yae Sakura's question.

Indeed, while the awakening of these four individuals was an accident, the simultaneous awakening of four Herrschers might not have caused as much damage as the Third Honkai Impact...

If the original Schicksal research stipulated that only large-scale Honkai with an energy intensity exceeding 1000 could give birth to Herrschers, then after recent events, this rule has likely become a thing of the past.

Could it be that……

—Along with the battle against the Honkai, has the Herrscher's awakening mechanism also changed?

Chapter 488. Times have changed!

After the Honkai Impact was forcibly ended by Gu Yu, Fu Hua felt that she had to go there.

It's a good thing that the collapse was stopped, but she felt uneasy from the very beginning.

It was as if someone was constantly calling in her ear, urging her to go halfway...

"Tch, Dr. Mei's Divine Sound System stopped making that noise after my body was treated, so why is it still so irritating!"

Looking at the girl on the ground who had caught her breath after the collapse was stopped, Fu Hua irritably lifted her clothes, lightly stepped on the ground, and began to leap rapidly across the rooftops with her.

"If I leave this little girl here, she'll be completely infected by the Honkai and die. Rather than that, I'd rather keep her with me."

"I want to see what's in that place that's been making me so uneasy!"

In the blink of an eye, the girl, relying on the powerful physique granted to her by the fusion warrior, had arrived at her destination.

Upon reaching her destination, Fu Hua narrowed her eyes slightly, then suddenly burst into a happy laugh.

"Sakura! What happened to you..."

Then, the expression on her face suddenly froze.

Because her memories were so chaotic, the girl didn't immediately recall the past.

Looking at the cherry-haired woman in front of her, she almost thought that her former comrade-in-arms, who had already passed away, had actually come back to life.

"Miss Fu Hua?"

Seeing the familiar face in front of her, Yae Sakura secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Although it's unclear what exactly happened to Fu Hua after she was sent back to Schicksal that day, Fu Hua's two acts of helping Gu Yu had already made Yae Sakura feel very good towards her.

After all, Fu Hua suffered irreparable damage after helping Gu Yu.

If they're helping us like this, they must be allies.

only……

"astronomical!"

Seeing Chen Tianwen being led by the girl, Chen Tianwu immediately spoke nervously to the girl.

"Put my sister down right now!"

"Huh? Your sister?"

Hearing Chen Tianwu's urgent words, the girl immediately looked at Chen Tianwen.

Chen Tianwen was just an ordinary girl. When the girl rushed to the scene, Chen Tianwen, who was being held by the girl, was suddenly subjected to a brutal and inhumane gust of wind due to the girl's reckless behavior.

Chen Tianwen, whose condition had been slightly improving, has fallen into a deep coma due to this sudden shock.

Although this wouldn't have killed Chen Tianwen on the spot, seeing his sister's miserable state, it's no wonder that Chen Tianwu, as her older brother, would shout so anxiously.

"Um...sorry, I rushed too fast."

Seeing Chen Tianwen's miserable state, the girl suddenly frowned slightly.

She could sense that, besides Yae Sakura, the known Herrscher, Himeko Murata, her mentor, and Kiana Kaslana, her classmate, also possessed Herrscher cores.

"Himeko, Kiana, you've become Herrschers too?"

Looking at the expressions on their faces, the girl asked with slight surprise.

"What exactly happened?"

"Himeko...?"

Hearing the girl address her as such, Himeko Murata narrowed her eyes slightly.

She and Fu Hua spent a considerable amount of time together, and throughout that time, Fu Hua always maintained a polite and courteous demeanor.

When she was a student, Fu Hua addressed Himeko as "Himeko-sensei".

When Fu Hua was a Valkyrie, she addressed Himeko as Major Himeko.

But the 'Fu Hua' in front of me actually called out Himeko's name directly...

How could the Fu Hua of the past have behaved in a way that she herself considered so rude?

Moreover, this girl's eyes are different from Fu Hua's.

In those scarlet eyes, Himeko felt as if she saw something slightly different.

"...Why are you staring at me like that?"

Feeling uncomfortable under Himeko's gaze, the girl awkwardly scratched her head.

"We've known each other for so long, surely you wouldn't not recognize me?"

"Now I can confirm it: you are not Fu Hua."

After hearing this, Himeko took a deep breath and immediately asked another question.

"Even though you and Fu Hua look almost identical, the difference in your words and actions is too great."

"Tell me, what exactly do you want to do by impersonating her?"

Upon hearing Himeko's words, Yae Sakura suddenly remembered.

The girl before me is now a Herrscher... and even Himeko, who has spent a long time with Fu Hua, says that this Fu Hua is an imposter, so...

Enemy?!

???

After hearing Himeko's question, the girl pointed to her face and suddenly burst into laughter.

"Hahaha! Have I changed that much? It's one thing for Gu Yu, but Himeko, you don't even recognize me?"

"Now, let me reintroduce myself. I am Fu Hua, but I am no longer the Fu Hua you used to know."
