The Fire-Chasing Herrscher Who Destroyed the World

"Wait a minute, I object!"

At the familiar voice, the puppet holding the dagger stopped approaching Kiana. And Kiana, who was still struggling, also calmed down at this moment.

But the silence was only temporary. After I silently confirmed the owner of that voice in my heart, and confirmed that I definitely did not have auditory hallucinations due to nervousness - especially the actions and whispers of the doll in front of me provided the most powerful proof:

"Hey, hey, Guinevere actually came back alive? What a great deal!"

"What the hell, didn't you see that she came back empty-handed? She moves around freely all day long and doesn't pay attention to anyone. You think she is so powerful. Doesn't this also fail to bring back the Herrscher of Reason?"

"Woo!"

The chain "哐" sounded. At the same time as the force, the teeth always bit the tightest unconsciously. The saliva flowed along the chain to the chest and flowed to the thigh. Come.

However, just to this extent, nothing can be done.

"Sigh... I really didn't expect that there would be so many blind people among the brothers and sisters who received the blessing with me. It seems that I have to pray to the gods for another miracle to cure everyone's eyes. Uh-huh."

A pretentious chuckle sounded from the side. Kiana wanted to turn her head to look at the person, but was pressed against her cheek by a warm and moist palm.

The same scene seemed to have happened not long ago, and Kiana was in a daze for a moment - a senior who often took care of her, and a junior who she often took care of, actually became an apostle of Honkai...

There was moist liquid sliding down her face in that familiar palm, but Kiana couldn't see clearly what it was, she just felt sticky and uncomfortable.

Then, she smelled the pungent smell of blood.

It was an extremely strong smell of blood, and it was definitely not just the blood of one person, but the smell of blood of many, many, countless people, including broken internal organs, and even incompletely digested food gushing out from a ruptured stomach. The smell of excrement—all of the above mixed together will give off a disgusting fishy smell.

For a moment, I was confused and my vision was blurred. The light, shadow, and space seemed to have double images, and they were rotating slowly or rapidly like a kaleidoscope.

It wasn't until the abstracted light and shadow merged into a colorful river, almost drowning her, that Kiana regained consciousness.

But his eyes were wide open, but it seemed like time was not flowing at all.

Fortunately, there are always some low-quality dolls that can help people wake up in unexpected ways.

"I*! Who are you calling blind? Why are you even more amazing than Wendy!"

"That's right, the mission is just a little more dangerous, so you're here to show us off, right? It's okay for us to do it, but we just don't have a chance!"

"Puff——"

Guinevere covered her mouth and chuckled.

"It can't be done, it can't be done, my misanthropy is about to break out. It seems that some of our brothers and sisters need treatment not only for their eyes, but also for their brains."

As she spoke, Guinevere pointed to the dagger in Wendy's hand, and then pointed to the broken remains of the high platform on the stone slab and the broken mallet.

"They say you are blind, you really can't see. Although I just arrived, there are none of these things here, right? Why, why can't you still see it? This is the power of the Lawyer, and it is genuine The power of the Herrscher of Reason is exercised by us, but it is borne by the original First Herrscher, don’t you think so, Senior Wendy?”

"Well, with the power of the Herrscher of Reason, it is indeed a lot more convenient. Thank you very much."

The doll, which was already indistinguishable from the individuals on the surrounding stone steps, grinned a seemingly innocent smile.

"..."

"However, Guinevere. I admit that you have made a huge contribution to our plan, but you must understand that the death penalty for Kiana Kaslana has been passed by an absolute majority. Even if you add Your vote cannot change this decision at all.”

"Then you can execute Kiana Kaslana."

"Um?"

Guinevere smiled silently while rubbing Kiana's head. The originally snow-white hair looked like it had been soaked in a bucket of blood.

"Go! Go quickly! Anyway, the person you want to execute is Kiana, so go find Kiana - if she is still alive."

"It's hard, now it really turns into [Kiana is the one who is executed, what does it have to do with me K423]?"

The existence that can be called "Wendy" quickly turned around and glanced. The commotion behind him quickly subsided. Each doll suppressed his breathing and watched the game about Kiana's life and death intently.

Although most people don't know what's so noisy, it's better to be noisy than peaceful. Everyone was so amiable, it was so boring that I almost fell asleep, it would be great fun to watch it when they were noisy!

"If your objection is just for such meaningless sophistry, then it is best not to prevent me from carrying out the results of the trial."

"Wendy" held the dagger tightly and took a step forward as if to demonstrate.

"well……"

Guinevere finally withdrew the hand that was wreaking havoc on Kiana's head. She covered her forehead, hit her head hard twice, and muttered something:

"Oh, oh, oh, Wendy-senpai is really serious and strict, but...Wendy-senpai, I think it would be better to hold a new vote, right?"

"What's your...reason? If you still say those sophistry, I wouldn't mind helping you review our teachings before killing Kiana."

"Isn't that natural?"

Guinevere sighed, tilted her head, and turned her disappointed eyes to "Wendy".

"Senior Wendy, before you sentenced her to death, did you also ask for her intention to cooperate?"

"That's natural, but as you can probably guess, it's impossible for her to cooperate with us. In order to clear the obstacles on the way to Utopia, killing her is undoubtedly the best option."

"ah--"

Guinevere shouted excitedly and covered her face, seemingly not caring about the blood on her hands. She kept scratching her cheeks until her fair skin almost showed a strange blood totem, and she stopped.

But there was only a moment's pause before her voice sounded again. It only took a second to complete the transition from slight to crazy:

"I really, really, really can't stand you idiots anymore!"

The heels of her shoes trampled the ground hard, and Guinevere looked like she wanted to peel off a layer of her own skin.

In contrast, the silver thread implicating "Wendy" began to twitch, and with the invisible sound of the clockwork turning, its joints swayed up and down, left and right, and its head started to snap again. Caught in a 360-degree rotation cycle.

Guinevere did not miss this opportunity. She took two deep breaths, imitated the appearance of a god, and raised her arms to the level of her shoulders——

"Don't forget, the guy who is tied up here now..."

After only speaking a few words, Guinevere still failed to complete her imitation of the gods.

She lowered her arms and put her hands on her hips to ensure balance. At the same time, she raised her legs and stepped on Kiana's head.

"The one who is tied here now is not [a person]. The reason why he refuses to join us to welcome the Utopia promised by the gods is probably because the control of the body is still firmly in Kiana's hands, or rather K423’s conscious hands.”

"You mean..."

"That's right!"

Guinevere tried to snap her fingers, but the thick blood between her fingers affected her performance. She tried three or four times but failed to make any sound.

But she didn't seem to be embarrassed at all, and just kept talking to herself:

"Most of the crimes you mentioned about Kiana should be attributed to Sirin. Of course, the so-called existence of [Kiana] is essentially the other side of Sirin."

After hearing her words, Kiana unsurprisingly started struggling again.

Guinevere didn't say much. She just put more force on her feet and pushed Kiana's head to the side. However, her mouth was choked by the chain again, making it almost impossible to move. If she really had to use all her strength, the corners of Kiana's mouth would be torn apart by the chains. But this was enough. Under the great pain, Kiana quickly became honest for the countless times.

"It is too stupid to expect a fool like Kiana to understand the great cause entrusted to us by the gods. We have no idea who came up with the masterpiece."

Guinevere's eyes stopped on the face of Wendy's puppet, but quickly moved away.

"In short, just because Kiana is not willing, it doesn't mean that [Xilin] is not willing either. Don't forget, she came into contact with the gods and received guidance from the gods much earlier than we did, but her consciousness has been blocked by Kiana for a long time. It's just suppression. But aren't we still here? We can let Sirin control this body and fight alongside us. After the power given by the gods is divided into a thousand parts, this is what each of us will get. It’s insignificant. Without a good fighter, it would be too difficult to burn this old world.”

For some reason, Kiana didn't struggle or resist anymore this time. Instead, she rolled her sky-blue eyes, wondering what she was thinking.

Guinevere looked sideways, looking at Kiana like this, and for some reason a smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.

But soon, the questioning voice from in front of her drew her attention back.

"What you said may make sense, but there is another problem - to awaken Sirin's consciousness, theoretically, one core equivalent of Honkai energy is needed. Throw away the core in Kiana's body, and there is only the first The Herrscher, the Third Herrscher, and the Eighth Herrscher. The First Herrscher was taken away from her power, and the core is still in her hands. The whereabouts of the Third Herrscher and the Eighth Herrscher are unknown. Oh yes, I also missed one. Epidemic Gem, what, you brought that thing back?”

"Of course...no! What can I do if I am alone like this? In fact, if God had not taken action at the last moment, I would not have been able to come back."

The dolls started communicating noisily again. It’s not that they are very interested in Guinevere’s proposal. Most of the dolls may not be able to distinguish the concepts of Herrscher, core, and gems at all. What really attracts them is the [god] in Guinevere’s mouth.

"It seems that you are not too stupid - of course it is impossible for God to personally take action just to save one thousandth of me. He just wants me to do one thing, huh, yes, that's it, he told me How can I awaken the Herrscher’s personality without being stimulated by Honkai Energy?”

Then, without giving Wendy or any puppet a chance to refute, she quickly walked past the puppet transformed by Wendy and walked towards the remains of the high platform, which was the center of the triangle knot.

She raised her hands high, and before Wendy could speak, she rotated her head 360 degrees - the same action happening to a doll was already weird enough, but it was even more weird when it happened to a humanoid...

"Stop talking nonsense, let's start the vote again - if you agree to give Kiana...oh no, if you agree to give our dear senior Siren a chance, please raise your hands!"

I don’t know if she received the indescribable blessing from the gods. Those guys who were clearly noisy when Wendy was hosting, gradually became quiet at this time, and then raised their hands obediently.

"It looks like there's no need to count them."

With something that might be called a "victor's smile", Guinevere turned around and stared at Wendy quietly.

"Let me give you a try. Anyway, you won't lose anything if you fail."

"Oh? Really? But I see that Senior Wendy seemed quite anxious about [killing Kiana] before. Why exactly?"

"Don't ask if it's none of your business."

"Oh! But didn't Senior Wendy warn me before not to always refuse to share information with everyone?"

The doll transformed by Wendy tilted its head, and the exaggerated and useless golden horns on both sides of its head almost scratched Guinevere's eyes.

Her eyes were covered by huge black eye patches, making it impossible to see what she was thinking, but Guinevere probably didn't care either.

Wendy's head turned back again and again.

As if she was deliberately teasing her, Guinevere spoke again at this moment:

"If I want to awaken Siren's personality, I have to borrow a few people from you."

"Can't you just go find the person you want? Why ask me? It's a waste of time."

"Ah? Ah? When did Senior Wendy hate me so much? We are comrades who cooperated with each other tacitly and finally brought Kiana out of the anti-entropy base!"

"..."

"Or is it that Senior Wendy feels uncomfortable because I met the Lord God?"

Click——click——

The puppet's head was turned 170 degrees to the right, and its dark eyepatch was facing Guinevere's gaze.

"God saved your life so that you could become the cornerstone of reaching the Utopia, not just to talk nonsense here."

"Nonsense? I don't think so. On the contrary, I think it's very interesting that Wendy-senpai is eager to kill Kiana - what? It's Wendy-senpai who feels ashamed of Kiana, so she is eager to let everything go. Settle down so that there is no room for regret, or is it because... Senior Wendy is afraid that someone as smart as me will think of Sirin's personality and use the power of the Second Herrscher? "

"It's nonsense, nonsense."

"Well! After all, Wendy-senpai has never opened her heart to me, so I can only guess this way. However, Wendy-senpai has already turned into a doll, so it seems that I don't need to say anything more. ”

"..."

Click——click——

The doll's head turned back to the front.

Wendy left, leaving only one sentence to Guinevere:

"Now that you're here, don't keep that ugly look anymore. The business is to become one with us."

"Ah, that won't work. Although I also want to experience a puppet-like body, in order to bring out Sirin's personality, I have to use this not-so-good-looking skin for the time being."

"Then don't talk nonsense."

"I know, but it also depends on the cooperation between Kiana and Sirin."

"..."

"Huh? Did you leave?"

Dangdangdang——

Guinevere raised her chest and raised her head, and inexplicably waltzed twice.

Eeyah - Eeeah -

As if to accompany her dance, the sound of the doll's joints rubbing was endless.

But when Guinevere hummed a little tune and completed the seventh circle, most of the dolls were pulled by the silver thread and flew towards the sky again.

"What a wonderful way to exit, as if on a carefully constructed stage, the noisy and gesticulating characters are carried by the threads of fate and fly into the sky. But what can be reached above the clouds is Valhalla, after all. Or Helheim?"

"..."

Guinevere walked up to Kiana step by step and slowly squatted down.

"Kiana, what do you think, if you die at this moment, should your soul go to heaven or hell?"

Guinevere reached out and touched the chain that locked Kiana's lips and head. Blue light bloomed from her fingertips. After a while, the chain dissolved.

Kiana's tongue swirled in her mouth, bit by bit massaging the parts that were sore from the friction of the chains.

She spoke hurriedly, but Guinevere tapped her lips with her index finger.

"You don't have to rush to answer. Now you can't give the correct answer at all. I know that after witnessing everything before, you will only believe that this is a farce - and it is indeed, who is the name of this place? It's called [Domination Theater]. You can see too many absurd and ridiculous dramas here, but you don't know if everything you think is ridiculous actually happened or is just a fiction. story.

"Of course, the crimes that those idiots listed against you - pfft! Sorry, it's actually a little funny. Kiana thinks so too. Those crimes were obviously committed by Siren, even if they were smaller ones, Sisi Leah Shaniat's affairs, Siegfried's affairs, and the real Kiana's affairs are not your responsibility.

"Kiana, I admit that you have never done any evil subjectively. However, there are too many evils that appear without you even realizing it. Even if you want to do good, you can't Avoid." (End of chapter)
