Honkai Q&A, The Opening Game Against Kevin

On the top of the tower of the end, the herrscher of the end named "Qiana" overlooks the whole world indifferently, like a god.

"Is that... Kiyana..."

Even though she had seen Kiyana before, who became the Herrscher of the End and destroyed the world, but seeing her again now, Mei still felt a trace of sadness.

It seemed that the bottomless despair could be seen clearly from the girl's indifferent face.

"Kiana in that pose..."

Different from Qiyana who became the herrscher of the end in the original world, the Qiyana in this world tends to be more divine. Those golden eyes seem to judge all the gods in the world, indifferent and nothingness.

Even if it just floats there quietly, it exudes a strong sense of existence!

The universe... what a quiet place.

You can't see the dilapidated land, you can't hear the screams, and you can't touch the temperature of life...

The earth overlooking here is just a planet full of gravel, which has lost its blue color and withered like a yellowed photo.

This is the world right now...

Dead world, forgotten world, wrong world...

Also a world that doesn't make any sense.

But even so...is it worth saving?

Kiyana stared at the land silently, then turned her head suddenly, and looked at the purple-haired girl who had been late—

【"Penglai Temple Jiuxiao"

"Hoo․……Hoo……

"It seems that you are the only one here, what a pity..."

Qiyana stared at her indifferently: "After such a long journey, there is also no one around you."

"No! Everyone is by my side, it's their strength that makes me stand here!"

Jiu Xiao put his hand on his chest and retorted: "And I will continue to fight, and bring the dawn of hope back to them!"

"A ray of hope?"

Qiyana stared at her: "From the moment you stepped into this world, have you ever seen the rudiment of Dawn?"

"What awaits you is endless despair and sorrow..."

"Only parting and death of companions..."

Kiyana said emotionlessly: "In this withered place, there has never been any light of hope."]

"certainly not!"

In the question-and-answer space, Qiyana retorted loudly: "Even if you have experienced so much sadness! No matter how much despair, even if you have witnessed the parting and death of your companions! There is still hope in this world! There is still hope Salary Flame!"

"I, who belonged to the world, didn't become the law shield of the end of mankind just because I firmly believed in all of these things!"

"... Kiyana."

Teresa looked at Qiyana who was arguing with reason, and was speechless for a while.

"Qiana......"

And Mei looked sadly at the white-haired girl on the screen who seemed to have lost all her emotions, and felt a pang of pain in her heart!" The Qiyana in this world...is so...

Bi

【"Penglai Temple Jiuxiao, you should already know the reason why you appeared in this world, and you should also understand that this has long been an irreparable matter."

Kiyana said: "Everything you do now is just repeating the tragedy at that time. There is no salvation in this world, and there is no need for salvation. If this is the case, why deceive yourself?"

"No! I'm not cheating!"

Jiu Xiao retorted loudly.

"Or do you think that in such a world—you can take on the role of savior, because in reality you are just a weak and ordinary person?"

Qiyana continued to question her: "Just like the mournful cries you heard in the tower, the real you is just a grain of sand in it, and you can only wait for the salvation of others in despair."

"Answer me, Penglai Temple Jiuxiao, what are you fighting for?"]

"——Fight for all the beauty in the world!"

In the question-and-answer space, Qiyana subconsciously uttered these words: "If it were me, I would definitely say this. 々!"

Qiyana couldn't help but think of herself in the original world, the one who was redeemed in the end.

In that world, she also experienced the most painful despair, and thought about ending everything with self-extrication...... However, it was everyone's help that made her feel warm and encouraged her to face the pain. Desperate fact!

And, finally succeeded in defeating the demons!

"Then, what will Penglai Temple Jiuxiao, who is the 'savior of the world', say?"

Alicia put her slender fingers on her cheeks, her expression looked a bit expectant: "It's really exciting!"

In the picture, facing the questioning of Qiyana, the herrscher of the end, Jiuxiao opened his mouth——

【"I...for..."

Jiu Xiao hesitated for a moment, and then said his own words: "I have fought until now to let everyone get the happiness they want!"

She looked at the silent Qiyana: "Actually, we all have the same idea, the scene I saw in the tower... that is your real wish!"

"You, like me, hope to change this ruthless world and want to be with important people!"

"So what if it's a small gravel! The hope I shoulder is a mountain made up of countless gravels! We will keep going up! Until we reach the dawn!

Jiuxiao looked directly at Qiyana: "Qiana! That also includes your wishes..... Let me, Penglai Temple Jiuxiao, fulfill your wishes that you can't realize!"

Kiyana watched her silently, and slowly raised her weapon: "I will tell you how powerless this obsession is..."

"Sleep peacefully here...... Penglai Temple Nine Heavens."]

The moment the voice fell, Qiyana, the herrscher of the end, took the initiative to meet Jiuxiao of Penglai Temple, and the battle between the two officially kicked off!

——This is the battle between the Herrscher of the End vs. the Savior.

Everyone in the question-and-answer space was staring at the picture on the screen.

The violent roar accompanied by the dazzling light flickering from time to time announced the intensity of the battle between the two.

The girls erupted with powerful power fluctuations, even in the vast and boundless universe, it is enough to Tongtian thoroughly!

Jiuxiao of Penglai Temple bears the stigmata of Qiyana, who is the Herrscher of the End in the previous world line, and the power she displays in the space of the stigmata is undoubtedly quite powerful.

However, as the herrscher of the end, Qiyana was at the level of destroying heaven and earth with every gesture. Even if she didn't use all her strength, she had already made Penglai Temple Jiuxiao unable to parry.

In just a moment, the Penglai Temple Jiuxiao was firmly suppressed, and Xianya looked down at the defeated Penglai Temple Jiuxiao.

【"Sure enough, the power of human beings is so small... In the face of Honkai, you have no chance of winning."

—————Enough, Penglai Temple Jiuxiao. "

"No.....it's not over yet...!"

Jiuxiao of Penglai Temple struggled to stand up again. Although her body was covered with scars, her eyes still shone with unyielding faith and hope: "Until I see the hope of victory, I will not fall down!"

Well, it seems that you still have unrealistic illusions about this world.

Qiyana stared at the Penglai Temple Jiuxiao like this, as if she understood something.

So she spoke again, telling the desperate fact: "The hope you are chasing now was extinguished more than 40,000 years ago.

"The people you cherished, too, died in that era."

"I can not understand what you say……………"

"Then let me tell you the truth, this past was shattered 42,000 years ago."

Kiyana seemed to be talking about something that had nothing to do with her: "And how did the girl named 'Qiana' destroy everything she guarded..." 1

Accompanied by the words of Qiyana, the herrscher of the end, the scene around the two of them suddenly distorted like an ink painting [Even the vast starry sky of the universe has undergone drastic changes.

In the next second, Nine Heavens of the Penglai Temple and Qiyana, the Herrscher of the End, came to a familiar scene - the dusk under the setting sun, the lush green garden and... the familiar St. Freya School garden.

Everything, just like the beginning 42,000 years ago, is also named Kiyana—the beginning of the nightmare.

Penglai Temple Jiuxiao watched all this in shock, and watched in disbelief at the scene where the girl named Qiyana killed her former partners one by one without hesitation—

【"Bronya Seele..."

"And Himeko..... Teresa..... Everyone..... Everyone is dead..."

Jiu Xiao staggered a few steps unsteadily: "What's going on......"

"This is the place where the Great Crash started 42,000 years ago. In the St. Freya Academy at the center of the outbreak, they rushed towards Herrscher without hesitation in order to wake up Kiana who had become Herrscher."

Kiyana recounted the tragic past: "However, all efforts are in vain, and the power of human beings is completely vulnerable to the Herrscher.

"In the face of the destructive power endowed by Honkai, Kiyana killed them with her own hands... That battle was a one-sided massacre, not even a battle.

"The people you cherished have long since died, and the flame-chasing moths are just undead fabricated by their obsession..."

“————has never existed from the very beginning.”]

"Sure enough, the real us in another world... had already died under Qiyana's hands...

Mei said sadly: "Kiana...she must be in pain..."

Staring at Kiana on the screen who seemed to have lost all emotion, Mei's heart ached.

【"Stop talking nonsense! Is this the meaning of the falsehood you have been emphasizing!"

Penglai Temple Jiu Xiao waved his arm and said loudly: "But is everything they are fighting to survive in this world just a lie! Those feelings can't be fictional!"

"That's just an illusion created based on their prototypes. As long as I want, they will disappear in front of you immediately."

Jiuxiao of Penglai Temple looked at her: "You mean, you created everyone who chased the fire moth?"

"No, it's you who really created them, even this world...is the individual you unconsciously produced based on what we know about them in our memory.

Qiyana stated the truth coldly: "They who were supposed to sleep forever, appeared here in this messy land because of your interference, and it was you who made them fall into such pain here......

Jiu Xiao shook his head in a daze, and retreated step by step: "No..."

Watching the Horaiji Jiuxiao who was hit hard by knowing the cruel facts, Kiyana continued to tell about her past——

"In the past I lived in, after they died, human civilization was also destroyed in the heat wave of the Great Crash. Even if there were a few individuals who escaped the catastrophe, they were all wiped out in the subsequent settlement...." ]

Kiana has become a nightmare for human beings, and driven by Houkai, she has become a demon that exists only to destroy everything.

She floats quietly above the planet...

...no consciousness, no action, no emotion

Just waiting for the instructions given by the Houkai to destroy the target marked by the Houkai.

Whenever the fire of human civilization is ignited, she will appear above the heads of those rebels, slaughtering them with absolute power.

She keeps repeating the same thing.

kill.....wait.....kill.....kill.....wait.....kill.....

I don't know how long this long process has taken....

Maybe only a few hundred years... maybe a long tens of thousands of years...

She no longer remembered how long she had stood on the barren land.

Perhaps it is not until the species called human beings are completely extinct that they can stop their blades and regain consciousness...

But only (Nuo Wang Zhao) she did not forget that moment.

When she woke up again, all the memories flooded into her mind like a nightmare.

Countless screams rang in her ears, countless corpses piled up at her feet, and countless blood flowed between her fingers.

In order to punish her, Honkai kept all the crimes she committed in her memory the moment she woke up.

Facing the crimes she committed, she fell into despair and madness, only the screams of pain lingered on the nothingness.

In the end, she couldn't bear the great sadness and came to the only conclusion.

——Instead of suffering like this, it is better to choose death.

She pierced herself with the blade of her gun, trying to kill the last of the humans.

But even this cannot die.

That's right, because she is the Herrscher, the strongest life created by Houkai, and she has broken away from the category of "human beings".

No one can kill her, including herself.

After understanding this fact, Kiyana gave up resistance.

She closed herself in the memories of the past, using all those beautiful things to numb herself.

It wasn't until the moment when Honkai dispersed from the planet...she really ushered in her liberation.

【"—This is the truth of everything.

"A crueler world than the house-playing games you've experienced."

Kiyana was telling everything about herself, telling about her past, her pair of gilt eyes were rarely filled with some emotional fluctuations, and she looked directly at the astonished Jiuxiao: "Facing

What can you do in a world like this?"

"Nine Heavens of Penglai Temple"

"In such despair, can you find a glimmer of hope for me? Can you bring me a glimmer of redemption? Tell me... Penglai Temple Jiuxiao..."

"Even if it's me like this---can you save me!!!"].
