“Cirin…” Looking at Sirin leaning against him, Mebius gently hugged her, a hint of helplessness in his eyes. The person in his arms was warm and soft, and it was very comfortable to hold her, so he didn’t want to let go.

"You absolutely mustn't fall for someone else, my love~" Mebius whispered in Sirin's ear and gave her a light peck on the cheek.

The system's voice rang in Sirin's ears the next moment.

[Möbius's favorability +0.5, current favorability 90, gained one chance to draw a prize. Congratulations on successfully gaining Möbius's approval.]

Hearing the system's voice, Sirin was stunned for a while before she came back to her senses. She felt an indescribable joy in her heart. Was this a case of fortune and misfortune being intertwined? As Sirin thought this, her mood became even more cheerful. Feeling the warmth emanating from Mebius, Sirin felt genuinely happy.

Sirin and Mebius embraced tightly, while the pseudo-Herrscher on the ground was still babbling.

The two separated after a short while, but still held hands with their fingers intertwined.

Then Sirin pulled Mebius to the pseudo-Herrscher and hurriedly flattered her, "Sister, sister, this is the living test subject I'm going to give you, a living pseudo-Herrscher. Something went wrong when I was trying to control her, and she ended up like this." With Sirin's enthusiastic introduction, the poor pseudo-Herrscher was given to Mebius as a gift by Sirin.

Seemingly to convince Mebius that this pseudo-Herrscher, now a prisoner, had great value, Sirin continued, "This pseudo-Herrscher is still quite powerful. Although she is nothing compared to me, she still has some strength to be able to destroy a city, kill so many people, and escape from Alicia and the others."

Listening to Sirin's introduction, Mebius raised an eyebrow and shifted her gaze to the pseudo-Herrscher lying on the ground. She didn't care about the pseudo-Herrscher's strength or value; to her, no experimental subject was as good as Sirin.

However, this pseudo-Herrscher can indeed help her. After all, this is not Sirin. Because she was afraid of hurting Sirin, she did not conduct experiments on Sirin. Now she can do them on this new test subject.

She carefully observed the pseudo-Herrscher on the ground. She hadn't looked closely before, but now that she did, although the pseudo-Herrscher's expression was very similar to GC's, there wasn't a single drop of water on her body. It seemed that she had indeed misunderstood Sirin before.

Mebius turned to Sirin beside him without changing his expression and smiled at her, "Sirin, thank you, I really like this gift, but can you guarantee its safety? How much power does she have left?"

"Safety is guaranteed, because I will protect my sister no matter what, and her consciousness has already been marked by me, so she wouldn't dare to disobey my orders," Sirin said confidently. Although Sirin's tone was very confident, she actually wasn't entirely sure herself; she didn't know how effective the mark she had placed on the pseudo-Herrscher's consciousness would be.

However, with her around, there's no problem. At worst, we can just lock down all the powers of the pseudo-Herrscher.

Looking at the confident Sirin in front of him, Möbius smiled slightly and asked, "Will Sirin protect me?"

"Yes, I will definitely protect my sister! This is my promise, I won't let anything happen to her!" Xilin answered without the slightest hesitation, her words were firm and powerful, and her eyes were incredibly determined.

Hearing this, Möbius smiled gently, feeling a sweet warmth in her heart. It was the first time someone had ever spoken to her like this. But being protected? That wasn't her style. She wasn't some delicate flower. Möbius smiled softly at Sirin and said, "That's enough. I trust you, Sirin. You must protect me well, okay?"

Although she didn't need protection, she knew she couldn't let Celine feel useless. Sometimes it was okay for Celine to be a little assertive. After all, she was still the bottom one.

“Yes.” Sirin nodded solemnly. She didn’t know what Möbius was thinking; she just felt that she had to protect Möbius.

"That's good." After hearing Sirin's affirmative reply, Möbius's smile became even brighter, and he casually changed the subject, "Next, let's awaken this pseudo-Herrscher and learn about her current situation. This is very valuable research data."

As Mebius finished speaking, Sirin, having received the order, quickly brought the pseudo-Herrscher on the ground to the restraint chair and tied her up, preparing to wake her up.

Chapter 107 The Girl's Name and Her Fall

After Sirin's actions, the pseudo-Herrscher, stimulated by the external stimuli, finally woke up from her hazy dream. As soon as she opened her eyes, the blinding light above her forced her to close them again.

Is it...daytime? The pseudo-Herrscher was a little confused. She wanted to raise her hand to shield herself from the glaring 'sunlight' but found that she seemed to be bound.

No! This isn't that city! Sensing something was wrong, the pseudo-Herrscher suddenly opened her eyes and looked around in a panic. When she saw Sirin in front of her, memories flooded her mind, and she froze, her cheeks flushing red.

The feeling she had from that recent event was still vivid in her memory. Every time she thought about it, it was as if she were reliving the moment, experiencing that ultimate pleasure. At the same time, she also felt a deep-seated fear of Sirin, because it was Sirin who had led her into that blissful hell.

Although her body was now full of Honkai energy, she felt as if she had become addicted, and her heart still craved Sirin's Honkai energy. If she were not currently restrained, she would probably rush forward and kneel at Sirin's feet, kissing her crystal-clear and round toes while begging her to give her Honkai energy.

All of this was brought to her by Sirin, the devil who destroyed her faith in God and replaced it with the mark of the devil, plunging her into a blissful hell where she rebuilt her faith amidst extreme pleasure.

And what this devil is going to do next is probably make her dependent on it, and eventually turn her into a shameless sow who can't survive without her Honkai energy. That's terrifying; she can't even imagine what she would look like if she became like that.

She wanted to resist, but it was too late. She had already fallen deeply into their clutches. To survive, she could only willingly become a follower of the devil and be violated by him. The god she once believed in would not come to save her. Perhaps, as the devil said, she was just a small pawn in God's game.

As she felt the various sensations and impulses gradually awakening within her body, the pseudo-Herrscher's mind was frantically conjuring up a series of scenarios, and a hint of fear and awe gradually crept into her gaze as she looked at Sirin.

At this moment, Sirin had no idea what the girl in front of her was thinking. She was sitting on one side of the experimental table, facing the pseudo-Herrscher who was tied to the restraint chair on the other side. Her elbows were on the experimental table, her fingers were interlaced in front of her small, delicate nose, and she had put on a pair of glasses without lenses from somewhere.

Beside Sirin, Mebius leaned back in her chair, legs crossed, her beautiful black-stockinged legs tucked together, a look of amusement on her face. She wanted to see how Sirin would interrogate this pseudo-Herrscher.

"Ahem." Sirin coughed lightly twice, drawing the attention of the pseudo-Herrscher to her. The pseudo-Herrscher was somewhat at a loss and nervous. She didn't know how Sirin would deal with her, but she thought it would be just as Sirin expected—that she would be thoroughly tortured and turned into that lewd appearance.

"Do you still remember your name? Your consciousness is a reconstruction of the original consciousness. After the mark of the Honkai Will, that is, the so-called God, was cleared, you should be able to remember something." Seeing that the pseudo-Herrscher had already focused its attention on her, Sirin began to interrogate her.

"I...I don't know..." the girl stammered, her previous stubbornness completely gone; she had utterly fallen.

“Think back carefully again.” Xilin frowned slightly. This shouldn’t be the case. According to her investigation, although most of the memories had been artificially erased, some memories that were extremely important to a girl who was still human should still remain. The fact that the girl was still intelligent was the best evidence.

Seeing Sirin frown, the pseudo-Herrscher sensed something was wrong and hurriedly and nervously searched her blank mind for memories, even though she didn't think she could find them at all, but she had to put on a show.

However, she encountered an unexpected situation shortly after she began searching her mind. She paused for a moment, then blurted out a word—Isha.

For some reason, the word felt incredibly familiar to her, but she couldn't recall where it came from; it was as if the word had suddenly popped into her mind.

"Is she? That's a nice name." Upon hearing this, Sirin murmured the word softly. Sure enough, once the mark of the Honkai Will was removed, the suppressed memories would awaken. Although it was very little, at least some of them would return.

However, the pseudo-Herrscher's human emotions have almost completely disappeared, so these few memories are of little use. Although the mark of the Honkai will has been removed, the mark's influence on Isha's consciousness is undoubtedly profound. Now, we can only slowly influence her through her imprint and guide her back to the right path.

Memory is the foundation of a person's emotions. When memories disappear, although instinctive emotions may still remain, those emotions are incredibly fragile. Only emotions that retain memories are truly enduring.

Next, Sirin's task is to create something from nothing, giving Isa new memories and reshaping her emotions. It's uncertain whether she'll succeed; after all, this is still only theoretical, and the fact that she dared to experiment is already a very bold attempt.

[You don't need to doubt yourself. Under normal circumstances, the influence on consciousness is irreversible, and the emotions that have been erased cannot be rebuilt. However, your existence will make this irreversible reversible. Only you in this world can do this. Believe in yourself; you are the most special.]

Just then, the system's voice suddenly rang in Celine's ears, almost startling her so much that she jumped off her chair.

Although she wanted to greet the system that had suddenly made a startling sound, Sirin suppressed the impulse because Mebius was also present.

After calming down for a while, she asked the system in her mind, "Can you tell me what's so special about me?"

【…】

A few seconds later, the system remained silent, completely still, seemingly unwilling to answer Xilin's question. Seeing the system's silence, Xilin frowned. Was the system unwilling to speak? It seemed her special abilities were truly extraordinary; even the system didn't want to utter a word. With the system remaining silent, it would remain a mystery.

However, since the system wasn't answering, she decided not to press the matter further. She had a feeling that she would eventually be the one to solve all the mysteries.

With that in mind, Sirin turned her attention back to Isa in front of her, preparing to ask Isa some more questions.

Chapter 108 Can I ask for anything?

Do you remember how old you are?

"No... I don't remember."

Do you still remember your family?

"Home...family? What is family?"

"Family is... well, never mind, just tell me what you remember."

“What else do I remember…” Isa paused for a long time, “I remember the screams of the first people I killed. They were screams that sounded quite pleasant. They seemed to be calling me the Holy Spirit. Then I killed them because I thought they were too noisy.”

As she listened carefully to Isa's words, Sirin frowned slightly. She looked at Isa, who was sitting directly in front of her, seemingly lost in thought.

At this moment, Isa felt a little scared under Sirin's gaze, afraid that she might have said something wrong and angered Sirin.

If Celine got angry and punished her, that would be terrible. The devil's punishment would surely be to reduce her to a shameless state, allowing her to be toyed with at will. She didn't want to become like that!

Celine, of course, had no idea what kind of R-rated thoughts were going through Isa's mind; she was still pondering what Isa had just said.

A scream that sounds almost pleasurable? Those two words just don't seem to go together at all; the description is so strange. And a Holy Spirit? What a bizarre title. An ordinary person would probably call it a monster.

Therefore, it seems that the first group of people killed by Isha were not ordinary people, or even normal people.

After thinking for a while, Sirin continued to ask, "What else do you know? For example, things from when you were still human, how much of that type of memory do you still have?"

"Memories from the human era?" Isha feigned thought, then her brow furrowed, and her expression suddenly turned one of intense pain. Her body began to convulse.

"What's wrong with you?" Upon seeing this, Celine was taken aback at first, then quickly stood up from her chair and hurriedly ran towards Isa. Mebius, who was standing to the side, frowned, but she did not go to Isa's side like Celine did. Instead, she stayed in place and observed how things would develop.

"It hurts...it hurts so much...there's so much blood...help me...I don't want to die...Dad...Mom...God..."

When Celine approached Isa, she heard Isa muttering incoherent words. Isa's mental state was very abnormal; her eyes were unfocused, as if she were suffering from intense pain.

After a while, Sirin suddenly felt that the Honkai energy reaction on Isa in front of her was getting stronger and stronger, and the indistinct words she was saying were becoming clearer.

"Humans, evil civilization, destroy, destroy..." As she said this, Isa's expression became incredibly fanatical, a change that made Sirin deeply uneasy.

Before Isha could finish speaking, Sirin activated her own power, completely paralyzing Isha's abilities to prevent her from suddenly attacking. After Sirin paralyzed Isha's powers, she displayed a very painful expression, looking incredibly ferocious and terrifying.

After struggling for a while, Isa fainted.

Looking at the unconscious Isa, Sirin remained silent for a long time. She pondered for a long time but could not come up with any reliable answer. Then Sirin tried to ask the system.

This was all too bizarre; Isha had suddenly become like this. And she remained completely bewildered, hoping the system knew something.

Not long after Xilin raised her question, the system answered it very quickly.

[She recalled unpleasant memories. Due to the emotional fluctuations and the lingering effects of her broken will, she became like that just now. In the present moment, her body's protective mechanisms are reacting. When she wakes up, she will forget everything she just remembered.]

What exactly happened to her?

【I have no idea】

Upon hearing this, Xilin looked regretful. If the system knew, it would save her trouble. However, since the system didn't know, she would have to rely on her own strength to investigate.

Celine had a premonition that if what happened to Isa came to light, it would cause a huge uproar.

With this question in mind, Celine walked back to Möbius's side and told him in detail what she had heard from Isa.

"You mean there might be a deliberate reason behind her becoming a pseudo-Herrscher?"

“Yes, and it’s very likely related to the first group of people she killed,” Sirin said, stating her deduction.

Listening to Sirin's deduction, Möbius's face showed an expression of interest. Artificially created Herrschers? Although the created pseudo-Herrschers were uncontrollable, at least they were created. He wondered what method was used and how many experiments were conducted. This matter suddenly became interesting. A dark light flickered in Möbius's eyes.

"Sirin." After a moment's thought, Möbius looked at Sirin beside him and smiled slightly. "I'm entrusting this pseudo-Herrscher to you. Make good use of her, find out the truth of this matter, then find the method for artificially creating pseudo-Herrschers and tell me. This is my request to you. Are you willing to accept it? As for the reward... I'll grant you whatever you want to do. Is that alright?"

Seeing the smile on Möbius's face, Sirin was momentarily stunned. She blinked and asked, "Sister, don't you need her as a test subject anymore?"

Hearing this, Möbius chuckled, reached out and ruffled Sirin's hair, saying with a smile, "My little guinea pig is all I need~"

Hearing Möbius's words, Sirin blushed and then shyly agreed to Möbius's request.

At the same time, Sirin suddenly heard the system's familiar notification sound.

[Triggering the special event [Mebius's Request - Part 2]: Find a unique method for artificially creating pseudo-Herrschers and uncover the truth behind what happened to Isa. Event completion rewards and effects: One chance to draw a prize, earlier appearance of the Divine Sound Project, earlier occurrence of the Fourth Honkai Impact, Mebius's affinity +0.5]

Listening to the system's voice in her ear, Sirin fell into thought. She couldn't believe it; this thing really had such a big impact. But the fact that the Fourth Honkai Impact was happening ahead of schedule was a negative impact, right? But so be it. She had already promised Möbius to complete her request; could she really go back on her word? She felt that the system was definitely doing this on purpose.

Celine glanced at Isa, who lay unconscious on the restraint chair not far away, and sighed. Now she would just have to wait for Isa to wake up and check on her condition, hoping to find more clues. However, Isa alone was not enough; she also needed Alicia's help to find the location where Isa first appeared in that city, and to find out about Isa's background.

I wonder what kind of demands that wicked woman, Alicia, will make this time. Hopefully, it won't be something that requires her to use her body. She's not that kind of woman!
