Honkai Impact 3rd: Catching the Herrscher of Sentience at the Start

The Honkai erupted, and all signs of life vanished.

Condition confirmed. Module reboot initiated…

…

"If… there truly is a god in this world…"

"Would it hear my prayers?"

"If there is such a thing as a destiny called reincarnation…"

"Please let me meet that person again."

At the end of the video, Kiana's voice faded as the curtain fell.

--------------------------

At this moment, the livestream room fell into dead silence. Everyone watching felt a deep sense of despair over what was happening in the video, but the only consolation was, "At least it's not our world."

Inside Sirin's consciousness, Kiana☆ patted her chest with lingering fear. "Thank goodness nothing like this happened in our world, and we've already made it through the tough times."

Kiana〈Damn host! Is this what you call wonderful?!〉

Theresa〈Exactly, always toying with people's emotions.〉

"Cough, cough! Blame me, huh? A grand reunion in the underworld, the whole cast wrapping up their roles—how is that not wonderful?" Fu Lin muttered sheepishly while feeling slightly annoyed. The netizens actually called this a 'grand reunion'?

Even Fu Lin had been deceived by the warmth implied in those three words, "grand reunion"!

Kiana〈Stare~〉

Everyone〈Stare~〉

"...Fine, I'll play another video as compensation," Fu Lin said reluctantly, turning his head away.

Kiana〈Hmph! Now we're talking.〉

[Q&A Livestream Begins: (Buzz-in Question)] "Celestial Immortal, I did not lie!" In this statement, what is Celestial Immortal's true identity?}

[A) Fuxi]

[B) Nuwa]

[C) Herrscher of Sentience]

[D) Fu Hua]

[Shenzhou Tablet]Fu Hua〈I choose D!〉

[Miss Lily]Otto〈I choose... uh?〉

'Blazing Flame'〈I...〉

Fu Shi〈...〉

Before anyone could analyze the question, Fu Hua buzzed in first. Even Otto was a beat slower, followed by Kiana☆ and Fu Shi—those who already knew Fu Hua's true identity.

Fu Lin clapped his hands in admiration. "As expected of Fu Hua."

Kiana〈Class president Fu Hua is actually an immortal!!!〉

Mei〈Since the class president admitted it, it seems to be true.〉

Bronya〈Bronya is also surprised.〉

Theresa sat in her office, staring at the ceiling, questioning her life choices "First the leader of Anti-Entropy... and now the legendary Celestial Immortal, both are at our St. Freya Academy!"

"At this rate, if you told me all my students were Herrschers, I wouldn't even be surprised anymore."

"Really?" Fu Lin asked curiously as he read Theresa's comment.

Theresa〈Fake!〉

Fu Lin was at a loss for words "..."

Fu Hua sighed deeply and removed her glasses as she looked at the comments flying across the screen. She had no intention of hiding her identity when she buzzed in to answer the question.

She only hoped that not too much information would be revealed…

But her prayers went unanswered. On the screen, her figure appeared standing on the deck of a ship.

However, the scene was far from ideal. Fu Hua was shown being held tightly by the Herrscher of the Void, gasping for breath.

"Allow me to offer you a little praise—you are indeed somewhat unique.☆"

"But in the end, you're still just human.☆"

The Herrscher of the Void looked at Fu Hua coldly, her tone laced with curiosity.

"But it's strange…"

"Even during the fight just now, you didn't use your full strength.☆"

"—Why is that? Even though you hold two Divine Keys, you still refuse to use the 'other one.'☆"

"Do you think it's not time yet? Or… you can't control it?☆"

"Or maybe, you simply can't use it at all?☆"

"It doesn't matter. It won't change anything.☆"

"—Die!"

The Herrscher of the Void summoned a spear and aimed it at Fu Hua, but a sudden round of applause interrupted her. A figure slowly walked into the scene.

That figure, who had appeared multiple times in the livestream videos, was already too familiar to everyone.

It was none other than our Overseer of Schicksal, Otto Apocalypse.

Wutong, watching the screen, glanced at the figure dressed identically to Sirin and asked curiously〈Huh? Is that Sirin in the video?〉

Sirin replied coldly〈What, are you scared?☆〉

Wutong shook her head, then hugged Sirin's arm and said〈Not at all. Sirin is so cute, totally different from the one in the video.〉

Sirin pulled her arm free and silently floated into the air, no longer paying attention.

[Shenzhou Tablet]Fu Hua〈The Second Herrscher? How is she revived?! Otto, what exactly are you trying to do?〉

Fu Shi, feeling heartbroken for the Fu Hua on screen, muttered defiantly〈If it weren't for that old antiques's severe injuries, a mere Second Herrscher would've been cut down with a single strike!〉

'Pufferfish'〈Hehe☆〉

Kiana〈The one in the video… is that me? Does that mean I might end up like the 'me' in another world, becoming a servant of Honkai and killing everyone?〉

Theresa, staring at Otto's figure in the video, questioned angrily〈Grandpa, what are you doing?! Is Kiana turning into that because of you too?!〉
