Honkai Star Rail: I am the Emanator of all Eons

Chapter 34: Chapter 34: Svarog: complete annihilation



After helping Clara repair the malfunctioning power reactor, Clara took us to Svarog's mansion and the iron door finally opened.

-Humm, if possible, I beg you not to make Mr. Svarog angry....

-Don't worry, Clara! We only came to talk to him.

March reassured Clara with comforting words.

-I'll leave the negotiations to you, I'm not good at them.

Seele commented in the background.

-It's also my first time negotiating with a robot....

-Don't worry, Bronya. The trick is to leave everything to Dan Heng.

-Hey, how about you guys stop throwing all the hard problems at me?

I turned a blind eye to Dan Heng's complaint. I mean, who else do I depend on if not Dan Heng?

Passing through the iron gate, there was Svarog waiting for us at the entrance?

-I'm back, Mr. Svarog.

Of course, she personally went to Svarog's side, we watched her go from a distance.

-I saw that the power supply was already restored. Thank you, Clara. But why did you bring these people?

-Mr. Svarog... they need to talk to you about going to the Overworld.

-Analyzing... Analysis result: targets do not belong to Wildfire. Origin: unknown. Classification: unknown. Since Clara wants them to, I'll give them a chance to talk.

Well, it looks like Svarog is willing to negotiate.

-Hey, it looks like he's willing to talk to us! Quick, Nadie, we're relying on your word skills!

-Seriously March?! Dan Heng...! Don't avert your eyes! I mustn't depend on Stelle either, she'll lead us straight into a fight with Svarog.

There's no choice, I'll have to improvise something and now! If I mention the Stellaron, Svarog will see us as a threat, it means I must steer the conversation elsewhere...!

-We want to make a coup d'état and we need your help!

-Reassessing targets... Threat level increased. I demand that you reveal the real reason for your visit.

Fuck! Me and my bloody wit! Why did I think for a moment that saying that was a good idea...?!

-Well done Nadie, looks like you pissed him off.

-Silence March!

I'll have to bring up the Stelaron, but this time I'll add the information that Cocolia is being manipulated by it.

-Look, Cocolia has the Estelaron and...

-Estelaron... Searching the database... Access denied. Talking about the Estelaron with unauthorized individuals: forbidden. You are mentioning a secret buried deep in this world, a secret that no human should know...

-Don't interrupt me!

Shit, I really screwed up splendidly.

-What I expected... He knows what the Estelaron is, but it's a restricted topic.

Dan Heng commented with a frown.

-The historical records show that humans attempted to access the Stellaron on several occasions. Each time, because of their greed, they tried to seize it for selfish purposes.

-Damn piece of junk, we want to seal it! Is that so hard for you to understand?!

-Nadie, I think you should calm down....

I know Bronya, I know. But this bastard won't listen to me.

-Orders from the Architects: any behavior that attempts to make contact with the Stellaron will have serious consequences. Reassessing target... Maximum threat level.

-Oh, so you want to fight, huh.... Good for me, you bastard! I'll teach you a lesson! Go, my brave heroes! Fight for me!

-Seriously again?!

March shouted in a furious voice.

-Peace protocol temporarily deactivated. Requesting initiation of extermination protocol.

-Extermination? Literally like that?

-Don't chicken out March, I'll be cheering you on from behind!

-Please come and fight yourself!

March's tsukkomi are certainly improving, maybe we should really try working as comedians?

-Peaceful conversation is over! March, get ready to fight!

Dan Heng pulled out his spear, ready to fight.

-Lord Svarog! No...!

-Clara, get out of here!

-Clara, it's too dangerous! Find a place to take shelter!

Bronya also ordered Clara to retreat.

-Bah! In the end we'll do it the hard way...

Seele also took out her scythe and prepared to fight.

-Protocol No. 3, Svarog supervising automaton. Extermination protocol launch: finalized. Permission to annihilate!

-Denied!

-Insufficient authority, still permitted!

-Fuck you!

Ignoring my insults, Svarog lunges forward and fires his Banishing Fist in my direction. Stelle immediately steps in the way and pulls out her baseball bat to block.

-That's strong...!

Stelle's feet skid against the ground; luckily, she didn't lose her balance.

A pink glow can be seen covering Stelle's body. It is March's Power of Beauty skill, it grants a shield to its target. March must have used it on Stelle when she intercepted Svarog's blow.

Butterflies appear around Svarog and Seele appears to attack, quantum images are projected everywhere and the Sheathed Blade ability is unleashed, performing a devastating slash towards Svarog. But Svarog reacts by covering himself with his arms.

-It looks like it won't be an easy fight.

I muttered quietly to myself.

-Well, I wish them good luck!

-Please cooperate a little bit, will you!

-Don't be a spoilsport, March. If I go into action, the fight wouldn't last two seconds. Besides, what we want is to recruit Svarog, not destroy him, remember?

-*Sigh*... okay.

My explanation made Svarog look in my direction, his eyes glowed a very threatening shade of red.

Well, now his concentration was split in two. Of course, I'm exaggerating my words on purpose; even if I can defeat Svarog, it wouldn't be an instant defeat either, let alone total destruction. I simply put it that way to worry him.

-Reassessing the threat of the individual Nadie... incomprehensible.

-Leave it, don't try to analyze me. Until I use my skills, I will keep my identity incognito. Don't worry, I will not intervene; for, you are destined to lose this fight, Svarog.

-... Analyzing the meaning of "destiny" in relation to the mention of the individual Nadie.... incomprehensible. I don't understand how you came to that conclusion.

-You don't need to understand it. In a little while, you will see with your own eyes what I mean.

-... We'll see.

Pointing his index finger at us, the Efficient Bombardment ability causes countless missiles to shoot out from Svarog's back.

-Disperse!

At Dan Heng's shout, we all scattered, including me. Although I have unmatched healing ability, my defense is low; therefore, I would rather dodge than feel extreme pain.

Luckily, Svarog's missiles only cause minor damage to Stelle. Thanks to The Power of Beauty increasing the probability of receiving enemy attacks, it was much easier for the rest of us to dodge.

-Ouch! Why only me?

-I'm sorry~

March apologized by sticking out her tongue cutely.

Dan Heng tries to approach Svarog from the side but Svarog stops his advance with Incinerator Beam skill, forcing Dan Heng to jump back.

Seele again tries to take Svarog by surprise using Sheathed Blade, but Svarog already having knowledge of this ability, analyzes the quantum projections in a matter of seconds and predicts the position where Seele will appear, hitting with Banishing Fist at that point.

*Bang!*

-Thank you Bronya, that was close.

Luckily, Bronya impacted a Gale Bullet on Svarog, stopping the attack that almost connected a direct hit on Seele.

-The time is now! Lend me your strength, Seele!

In addition, Bronya boosts Seele's speed and damage with her Combat Reorganization ability.

-As expected from the ancient relic of the Old World, she learned Seele's attack patterns after seeing him only once.

Bronya commented with a frown.

At that moment everyone understood, the same strategy doesn't work twice on Svarog.

When the fight was about to reach its climax?

-Can you do your best if there is no medic on the battlefield? Guys, concentrate on the fight! I'll have your back!

-Nat...! How...?

Seele exclaimed as she saw Natasha make her entrance.

-So things got ugly! Thank goodness Sampo came to watch their backs!

Proudly declared the second guest.

-Sampo! So it was you...

-Detected infiltration by armed members of Wildfire. Assessing the situation... All targets are high risk, initiating complete annihilation!

The Efficient Bombardment skill fires an innumerable amount of missiles. March 7 reacts by using The Power of Beauty on Stelle again.

-Again?!

-Sorry!

Taking advantage of the decoy feature in March's ability, Dan Heng closes his distance to Svarog with a risky move.

-The truth of life and death, revealed in an instant.

And he uses his Ultimate Skill.

-This sanctuary is but a vision.... Break!

But Svarog is once again unharmed as he uses his summoning ability: Additional Deployment, sacrificing a Robotic Auxiliary Arm in exchange for successfully evading Dan Heng's attack.

Snapping his finger once again, two gigantic auxiliary robotic arms appear out of nowhere, serving for both offense and defense. In other words, Svarog was finally taking this fight seriously.

-Svarog has a weakness to the wind element. Dan Heng and Bronya, you two will take care of reducing his firmness. Seele, set up your Ultimate and untap it when Svarog falls into this breaking one; Bronya, power up Seele with everything you have for that moment. Stelle, I'm tasking you with tanking and March cover her; don't worry, Natasha will heal them.

-Huh?!

They all looked at me in confusion when they heard my orders, but Dan Heng....

-Follow those orders. As strange as it sounds, they are not completely random.

-Are you serious Dan Heng...?

-Yes... I'm saying this from experience, March.

In Fight Club Dan Heng already experienced what it's like to be instructed by me after all.

-Oh, I almost forgot. Those robotic arms also have a weakness to Quantum. Seele, do your thing.

Without further hesitation, Seele unleashes Sheathed Blade on the Auxiliary Robotic Arm and it is actually stunned after one hit.

-Did it really work?!

-How about instead of being surprised you finish it off?

Bronya shoots at the Robotic Auxiliary Arm and it really gets destroyed.

-Didn't I tell you already, Svarog? You're bound to lose, how about you give up and better listen to what we have to say?

-... Arise.

-Hey! That phrase belongs to a necromancer! Don't copy him!

So, a large number of Horgo Automatons came in our direction.

Now we are outnumbered...

-Did I speak too soon?

-You spoke too soon.

Stelle confirmed.
