Fire was burning!
Sizzle—crackle.
Feeling a power she had never known before,
Hiko looked toward the chaotic battle raging across the battleship—
And charged straight in!
She arrived just in ti to save Bronya!
On the battleship—
Hiko's figure was like a leaping fla!
Firelight spread through the darkness,
like sparks igniting a prairie fire,
about to bathe everything in blazing heat!
But at this mont—
The situation aboard the Hyperion had grown far more dire than expected!
The battle was unimaginably intense!
"Spatial curvature fluctuations are abnormal! I've never seen Honkai energy concentrations this high!"
"The enemy numbers are still increasing—what the hell is going on?!"
"Even for a Herrscher, this is way too broken, isn't it?!"
Tesla's voice sounded especially anxious over the internal comms.
"I'll hold the enemy back!
Priority goes to evacuating the wounded!"
Hiko replied instantly.
And this armor—
Its power far exceeded even Hiko's expectations!
The overwhelming strength it granted
left even this A-rank Valkyrie of Schicksal utterly stunned!
If not for the fact that her earlier injuries were already far too severe…
At the thought of this,
Hiko clenched her teeth.
No matter what—
She had to stop this disaster!
"How long until the Hyperion can launch?!"
"Three minutes! Hold on for three more minutes!
We'll be able to get out of this hellhole!"
With a clear answer in hand,
Hiko no longer hesitated!
She unleashed her full power!
But at that very mont—
A flash of blade-light swept past!
Hiko barely blocked it—
a split second slower, and she would've been gravely wounded!
A mocking voice followed,
making everyone's hearts tighten!
"Oh my, you actually blocked it?
That won't do—an act that doesn't follow the script ruins the performance."
Descending slowly with terrifying pressure—
The Herrscher of the Void appeared.
That familiar face…
Hiko called out, her emotions tangled beyond words.
"Kiana…"
But the one before her
was no longer the Kiana she knew.
Those eyes were cold,
devoid of even the faintest trace of emotion.
"I've finally found you."
"The order changed a bit, but it doesn't matter.
You're all just ants anyway."
"I'll start by killing you."
The mont her words fell—
The Herrscher of the Void launched a devastating assault!
In an instant!
Blades flashed!
"Human—
I'll tear you apart!!"
In just a heartbeat,
countless wounds appeared across Hiko's body!
And just as Hiko fought with everything she had against the Herrscher of the Void—
Aboard the Hyperion:
"System control—ready."
"Output control—ready."
"Trajectory control—ready."
"Target locked. Distance error—adjusted."
Einstein watched everything calmly.
Her gaze lingered on Hiko's figure,
locked in fierce combat with the Herrscher of the Void—
Unshakably resolute.
"We won't waste the opportunity you created for us."
"…Fire."
!!!
Before the Herrscher of the Void's horrified eyes—
A colossal beam of light erupted from the cannon!
A torrent of radiant energy poured forth,
a storm of light striking straight at the Herrscher's body!
The secret weapon hidden aboard the Hyperion
unleashed its full power upon a Herrscher!
—
And it hit—dead on!
—
"What—what is this?!"
The Herrscher of the Void scread in agony!
The Honkai energy within her body
went berserk, fleeing from every part of her being!
No—not dispersing—
But transforming into sothing else!
Into blinding light!
Into scorching heat!
Rapidly draining away from her body!
"How… how is this possible… my body?!"
Her body was being torn apart!
A torrent of photons slamd into the Herrscher,
as though stripping every single wing from her fra!
Born in the 20th century,
proposed and developed by Edison,
one of the greatest civilian inventions in human history!
Anti-Entropy's ultimate weapon—
Earth's strongest Honkai energy conversion device!
After more than fifty years of secret developnt—
At this very mont,
it proclaid its existence to the world!
In that instant—
As everyone watching behind the screen bore witness—
Within the group chat—
Multiple voices rang out at the sa ti!
[Tesla: Moonlight Throne!!]
[Einstein: This… is the Moonlight Throne!]
[Ningguang: Such overwhelming power!!]
[Keqing: This attack is even stronger than the Jade Chamber!]
[Ningguang: I reasonably suspect you're taking a jab at .]
[Herta: A weapon designed specifically for Herrschers?]
[Kiana: That's great!! If this hit can defeat her, then—]
[Raiden i: No!!]
[Raiden i: That's not just the Second Herrscher—it's you, Kiana!!]
[Honkai · Hiko: Right… if that's the case, then wouldn't Kiana also…]
Within the group chat—
Seeing the Moonlight Throne's attack take effect,
everyone first felt a surge of hope—
But then, all at once, they realized sothing horrifying.
The one being struck…
Wasn't just the Second Herrscher Sirin.
She was also—
Kiana.
If sothing were to happen to Kiana because of this…
A heavy dread settled over everyone's hearts.
