Seeing Kiana in such a state of agitation, both Pardo and i felt a bit strange. However, Kiana was always like this, so they didn't take it to heart, assuming she was simply being over-stimulated by the ga's content. After all, she was Kiana (Half-Annoyed).
Pardo controlled Hiko in the ga to resist Fu Hua's offensive. Although she won the gaplay segnt, the plot dictated that Hiko and Tesla were no match for Fu Hua and Rita. Fu Hua's strength was beyond Hiko's current reach, and Tesla's chs were like wet paper under Rita's scythe. Before long, the two were defeated.
["Then, let deliver the final blow to them."]
["I said... if you do not wish to be my enemy, do not harm them."]
["Understood, Lady Fu Hua. We shall take them back to the Curia and lock them in the dungeon."]
Under Fu Hua's protection, Hiko and Tesla's lives were spared, and they were taken into custody. For Theresa's side, this was undoubtedly catastrophic news. Losing a powerhouse like Hiko and a genius mind like Dr. Tesla was a heavy blow to the rescue plan.
[Rita and Fu Hua are just unreasonably strong, aren't they?]
[I've been thinking, is Fu Hua really just an A-rank? Hiko couldn't even resist her.]
[You can't say that. Hiko is strong, but she fought continuous battles and her body was already failing. It's normal for her to lose to another A-rank like Fu Hua.]
[I feel like Fu Hua isn't that simple. She has a Divine Key.]
Divine Keys—the collective na for thirteen weapons created by the Previous Era using Herrscher Cores and Soulium to resist the Honkai. This had been ntioned previously; for instance, Xuanyuan in the Xuanyuan arc possessed the Key of Dominance—the Xuanyuan Sword. What Fu Hua possessed was also a Key of Dominance: the Grips of Taixu.
[Maybe Fu Hua is related to Ji Xuanyuan? A descendant?]
[Hehe, a descendant? Let tell you, Fu Hua's identity is way more terrifying than you think!]
[Want to know more? Go play the Chronicle The Forgotten!]
The viewers who had cleared The Forgotten began flooding the chat. Clearly, the reveal of Fu Hua's identity was a heavyweight elent of this version. Pardo was curious too, but for now, she wanted to push through the main story in one go.
"That Rita person is dangerous too, right?" Kiana pointed at the Rita in the ga. "She isn't even wearing a Valkyrie battlesuit, but she tore through Tesla's chs... she looks even stronger than the Class Monitor."
Indeed, Umbral Rose Rita appeared to be wearing only a maid outfit, yet she shredded the chs with ease. In-ga, Umbral Rose was a specialized ch-killer; as a BIO-type character against CH-type enemies, it was a literal massacre.
"She almost killed Auntie Hiko... I definitely don't like that woman!" Kiana's words reflected her feelings toward the real Rita. Her Aunt Theresa was always whispering in her ear about what a terrifying woman Rita was. And now that Rita had co to miHoYo to serve as Su Mu's secretary...
What if Su Mu gets seduced by that woman? Rita is... Thinking of that "perfect yet dangerous" maid, Kiana felt a sense of crisis. Her female intuition told her Rita was a major threat!
Kiana clutched her head, feeling a headache coming on. Rita was watching like a hawk, Auntie Hiko might "snipe" him at any ti, and after that stunt her Big Auntie pulled... who knew what she was thinking? To protect Su Mu, President Kiana's brain began to spin at high speed! Curse you, Su Mu! Why are there so many strange won around you? Just thinking of ways to deal with them makes my head explode!
"Luckily, I asked Elysia for help before I left, phew~" Thinking of Elysia's confident promise to keep an eye on Su Mu, Kiana felt relieved. In the vast miHoYo company, Elysia was the only one she could truly rely on!
anwhile, a certain Miss Pink Elf let out a sneeze. "Oh my~ which cute girl is thinking about Ellie behind her back? Kiana? Pardo? Or Bronya? ~♪ ♩ ♫" Elysia seed to be in an excellent mood. As a "love expert," she lived for this kind of drama. "Hmm, it's such a dilemma. Who should Ellie support? ~♪ Kiana or Bronya? Both seem so interesting! ~♪ Maybe I should have Pardo join in too? That would be even more fun!"
Elysia, with zero dating experience but max-level gossip power, was currently feeling an incredible high!
Back to Pardo's livestream. After Hiko and Tesla were captured, the Hyperion was ready and waiting for their signal. Before the operation began, Theresa told i that the bomb system in her body had been deactivated. While this ant i could use her Herrscher powers, the personality of the Third Herrscher would also awaken. She warned i not to push herself, as she couldn't yet fully control that power.
However, Raiden i stated her resolve:
["I used to be afraid that the Herrscher inside would hurt those close to . But I don't want to run away anymore. I want to use this power to protect the people important to !"]
Einstein's communication interrupted them. Although there was a reaction from the shield, Hiko's signal was cut off. Theresa understood what that ant all too well. But there was no turning back now.
The Hyperion approached the labs, but Theresa noticed sothing was wrong. The defenses were suddenly thin, almost as if they were being let in on purpose! Suddenly, the Hyperion shook violently, and piercing alarms rang through the bridge!
["Strong spatial fluctuations detected!"]
Before the operator could finish, Raiden i felt her body being torn by a powerful force, pulling her away. Amidst Theresa's cry of alarm, i was instantly swallowed by darkness. Monts later, a familiar voice rang in her ear.
["i, i..."]
[Raiden i opens her eyes to find Kiana holding her.]["Kiana, are you alright?"]
["I'm fine. Better than fine... it's like I've been reborn."]
[As Kiana finishes speaking, her attire changes drastically.]
[Subspace Lances and golden wings manifest behind her.]
[Her azure eyes turn a majestic, commanding gold.]
[Her White Cot armor is replaced by a dress woven from high-concentration Honkai energy.]
[At this mont, Raiden i realizes the person before her is no longer the Kiana she knows. It is a stranger—dangerous, and possessing terrifying power... a Herrscher!]
["I'm glad you were here with when I woke up. Now, rge with once again, my half (the Gem of Conquest)!"]
[Sensing the danger, purple lightning erupts from Raiden i's body, tearing her away from the Herrscher of the Void!]
[The imnse pressure radiating from the Herrscher of the Void makes the Third Herrscher personality within i realize the severity of the situation.]["We are too late. She is controlled by the Honkai; she is dangerous now."]
[The Third Herrscher's warning doesn't make i waver. She grips her weapon tightly: "No! Precisely because she is in danger, I absolutely cannot let go of her!"]
[i's words make the Third Herrscher smirk: "Hmph... fine. Since the enemy is a Herrscher, we must use the power of a Herrscher to solve this. Don't disappoint ."]
[In the next instant, the Third Herrscher transforms into purple light and rges into i's body. Her eyes turn purple with the glow of lightning. Purple arcs of electricity dance around her, tearing through the air with a loud crackling sound.]
["Kiana, I will never leave you behind, just as you never left !"]
In the CG, Raiden i, having received the unreserved power of the Herrscher of Thunder, had transford once again into the Queen of Thunder. She was determined to save the person she loved!
Seeing this, Kiana happily hugged i. "i is so amazing, risking her life and fighting that scary Herrscher just to save !" Kiana pumped her fist. "Go, go, go, i! Give that nasty Herrscher a thorough beating! How dare she occupy this Lady's body! Hmph!"
Raiden i shook her head. "The outco isn't decided yet. I feel this battle won't be easy..."
Seeing i ignite her Herrscher power for an epic showdown against the Herrscher of the Void, the fans in the chat were beyond excited.
[Is this Third Herrscher personality especially biased towards i?]
[Unconditionally choosing to trust i and giving her the Herrscher power to save Kiana.]
[Can a Herrscher... be this gentle?]
[I was thinking if the Third Herrscher would betray her and join the Second to destroy the world. I guess I overthought it!]
[Wait, did you guys skip the Third Honkai Impact plot? Hehe, the Herrscher of Thunder was the first one to fall for Kiana!]
