Valkyrie Flavor Tasting Guide

"They'd probably be driven out on the battlefield."

"Stop complaining, Himeko-sensei," Kiana mumbled, lying on Mei's lap and looking half asleep. "Anyway, this level of play isn't exciting enough, is it?"

"My notebook contains many more things, all of them."

"Hmm," Mei gently stroked Kiana's soft white hair, a helpless expression on her face, "I just don't know how much this equipment will affect the battle later..."

She had a feeling that her fighting posture might be quite unsightly, using a sword technique from a certain electric-type character in Teyvat that the captain had mentioned, which was famous in a different sense.

“No,” Bronya’s voice remained calm, though tinged with a hint of annoyance, “that’s all.”

Fu Hua, however, remained silent.

She simply knelt quietly at Lu Mo's feet, gently pressing her cheek against his warm thigh.

His face still retained a hint of reluctance, a basic persona that suggested he hadn't fallen into depravity.

Lu Mo looked with satisfaction at the exquisite "painting" before him, a creation he had personally crafted, filled with absurdity and love.

He reached out and affectionately patted each of the five little heads.

"Alright," came the authoritative tone of a "captain" and the tenderness of a "husband," as he said, "boost your spirits."

"It's a battle, after all. Everyone should at least take it seriously."

As for danger... are you serious about telling the God of Earth that fighting some ordinary Honkai Beasts is dangerous?

However, after saying this, Lu Mo's expression did change slightly.

"Speaking of which... it's quite moving." His voice was soft, with a hint of self-deprecating laughter. "We've never truly fought side by side like this before."

"In the real world, I have always just been... watching you from another world. I never imagined that our first joint operation would be under these circumstances."

The moment he finished speaking, the atmosphere on the bridge underwent an extremely subtle change.

"Really?" Mei was the first to speak. Her face was filled with confusion, and her gentle purple eyes also showed uncertainty. "I don't know why, but I feel like it's not the first time."

“Now that Mei mentioned it, I…” Kiana subconsciously chimed in, tilting her head as she tried to think, “It’s just… I have some very blurry images in my mind…”

“The captain’s command has always been excellent.” Bronya’s voice was full of certainty; she was convinced that something similar had happened before.

"It's more than just outstanding." Himeko gently propped herself up slightly from Lu Mo's body, her still somewhat limp form. "I remember... it seems like once again, when we were about to encounter real danger..."

She paused for a moment, as if trying to confirm that vague memory.

"You will teleport me back to the bridge ahead of time."

"What are you talking about?" Lu Mo's face showed an expression full of genuine confusion.

He has no recollection of ever doing these things.

It seems the truth is even more outrageous than I thought.

"Alright, let's not think about these things for now." Fu Hua's voice broke the mysterious and complicated atmosphere at just the right moment.

She walked to Lu Mo's side and, quite naturally, took his hand in her palm.

"If you want it, we can make it happen, right?"

Even her memories aren't very clear.

But it doesn't really matter, does it?

Immediately afterwards, five streaks of light, each a different color, leaped out of the Hyperion.

Lu Mo leaned back comfortably in the captain's seat, admiring the magnificent picture he had created himself through the holographic screen.

"Really," he chuckled softly as he looked at the dazzling figure on the screen, wielding a greatsword engulfed in flames and cleaving a massive tank-class Honkai Beast in two. "Even in this state, you're still so energetic, Himeko."

“Of course,” Himeko’s voice was full of flattery, as if she wanted to take credit. “How could I not let you see my most vibrant side?”

"Besides, although it's not very professional of me to say this, even if I did have one, I wouldn't let it affect my operations."

Although she would be a good mother elsewhere.

But if it's about her going to fight where she's needed, even her own husband can't stop her from making that decision.

And that most captivating part, beneath the tight-fitting combat uniform, appeared so alluring.

After all, both her and Kiana's armors are the ones that best accentuate their figures.

As the battle intensified, her once dashing and heroic face became flushed with a rosy hue.

This is not just because of the excitement brought by the battle.

Furthermore, Lu Mo also gave them other things before the battle, making their combat experience even more wonderful.

"Kiana," he slowly shifted his gaze from the beautiful woman who was already "enjoying herself" to another white-haired figure full of vitality and youthful energy, "aren't your movements... a little too much?"

"Have it?"

While using her dazzling and skillful gunfighting techniques to sweep away all the annoying henchmen around her, she deliberately performed one "spectacular" and difficult spin and jump after another in the air, just like a gymnast performing a rhythmic gymnastics routine.

Even now, with each landing and each roll, it shakes violently and uncontrollably.

But her flexibility was clearly conveyed to the eyes of that one and only "viewer" through the holographic screen.

"After all, when fighting in this posture, some of the body movements will inevitably look a little different from usual."

“…Seriously,” Mei said, looking at the two “clowns” who had completely let loose, “the captain is being spoiled rotten by you two.”

As she spoke, she swung her katana, unleashing a destructive purple lightning bolt that struck the Emperor-level Honkai Beast that had just narrowly escaped Himeko's sword.

Fortunately, although my movements were a bit flamboyant, they weren't too outrageous.

But Mei couldn't help but wonder what if the little gift the captain gave her wasn't stuck on her body but given in some other way.

"Who told him... to always like doing bad things?"

Bronya was floating in mid-air, her petite body tightly wrapped around the heavily armored bunny that was carrying out all the combat work.

Compared to the others, Bronya chose the simplest method.

The Heavy Bunny is specifically responsible for posing her in different ways.

This is the advantage of remote units.

She was willing to show Lu Mo whatever she wanted to see.

Lu Mo wished he could become the enemy on the other side and teach this little duck a lesson.

Meanwhile, Fu Hua, alone, was responsible for clearing another war zone. Her movements were precise and efficient.

Every punch and every kick she throws embodies her unique beauty.

Her body always seems to do things in seemingly "unintentional" moments that are enough to drive any man crazy.

Sometimes, she would be like the softest serpent, intertwining her body with the Honkai Beast in special poses to showcase her beauty.

Of course, this is a standard visual illusion.

She didn't really want to get close to the Honkai Beasts; it was just a simple artistic composition technique—something she learned from sculptures from hundreds of years ago.

At times, she would adopt a fawning angle and strike a slightly seductive pose so that someone on the bridge could see her completely.

"No wait!"

Just as Lu Mo was admiring all of this, Ji Zi made her appearance.

Himeko's voice carried a noticeable change in tone from strenuous exercise, as well as an uncontrollable greed stemming from her constant fantasies on the battlefield.

Before Lu Mo could even respond, she pounced on him like a lion hunting its prey, knocking him and his chair to the ground.

"Hey..." Lu Mo struggled symbolically for a moment, "The battle isn't over yet."

"So what?" Himeko didn't care about any of that, revealing a smug and charming smile that carried the air of a victor.

While using all her strength to suppress Lu Mo, she completely reversed the situation and successfully launched a counterattack against Lu Mo.

On the other hand, he issued a new "command" to the communication channel that was still open, as if it were perfectly natural.

"The rest of the henchmen are yours to deal with."

Her voice was filled with undisguised boasting, "The captain and I have more important things to do."

Anyway, she's the captain, so it's only natural for her to give orders.

Without further hesitation, she slowly lowered her head and began to enjoy her wages, or rather, her "spoils of war."

In an instant, only a series of intimate sounds, so sweet they made one's teeth ache and eyes water, filled the communication channel.

Everyone else felt a sense of unease—even without turning around, they knew what Himeko was doing.

Besides—they weren't unaware of Himeko's abilities.

"……hateful!"

On the other side of the battlefield, Kiana, hearing the provocative words that sounded like a "declaration of victory," and... the sounds that followed that were full of "autonomy," was so angry that she almost threw the fairy bow in her hand like a brick.

"—Himeko-sensei... is too cunning!"

Her face was filled with the childlike, pure displeasure of having her toy taken away.

"Clearly... we should stand together through thick and thin!"

She mumbled incoherently as she resentfully vented all her pent-up frustration on the unfortunate Honkai Beasts before her.

"Heavy Bunny, Annihilation Mode! Fire!"

Bronya's momentum was equally strong.

If the Honkai Beasts were conscious, they would definitely want to curse.

What did I do to deserve this?

Lu Mo and Ji Zi's passionate kiss lasted only a moment before Lu Mo keenly sensed four other "death stares" filled with substantial resentment through the communication channel.

The kind of death stare that looks like it has eyes in the back of its head.

Lu Mo chuckled and continued to be intimate with Ji Zi for a while, making sure that Ji Zi's desire to cling to him was temporarily relieved, before pushing away his lover who was still not satisfied.

"Alright," he said, his voice carrying a hint of reassurance, "stop fooling around, you'll get what's coming to you later."

The meaning of gorgeous

Upon hearing this, Himeko gave a knowing smile. She didn't press the matter further, but rather gave him one last, reluctant peck.

Then, satisfied, he returned to the battlefield.

Soon, with the combined efforts of the four future Herrschers who were also holding back their energy, the remaining Honkai Beasts on the battlefield were swept away cleanly and efficiently, like autumn leaves being swept away by the wind.

The battle is over.

Of course, if they weren't still rational, everyone except Fu Hua would probably have used their full powers to fight—which shows how high the concentration of resentment was.

As the four powerful Valkyries regrouped at the front of the Hyperion, preparing to return to port...

The man who should have been waiting for their triumphant return on the bridge instead appeared brazenly in front of them.

He didn't say anything superfluous; instead, with a chilling cracking sound of bones breaking, he transformed into a gigantic, ferocious creature.

Looking at the oppressive "monster" before them, the four beautiful "valkyries" who had just experienced a fierce battle showed no fear whatsoever.

"Looks like a big one~ I wonder if it'll get too much nutrition."

"It's at least a Judgment-level Honkai Beast, we're doomed~ lalalala"

The tone was extremely exaggerated.

But their momentum did not diminish in the slightest.

In an instant, he pounced on it.

The four men each held a weapon, seemingly intending to kill him on the spot.

And then... well, the result was...

"Take this, you big monster!"

Amid Kiana's sharp cry, four figures, as if by prior arrangement, launched an extremely flamboyant "attack" from different directions.

Kiana's twin pistols unleashed dazzling beams of light, but they barely grazed the giant beast's skin as it flew into the distance.

Mei's lightning strike was powerful and heavy, but it "just happened" to hit empty air, leaving a charred mark on the ground.

The giant Honkai Beasts ignored their "offensive".

Its response was a tentacle like a black lightning bolt.
