Kiana Kaslana was retrieved by Otto Apocalypse. Theresa Apocalypse made the decision to attack Schicksal and rescue Kiana.
[Chapter 7: Lift the Sword of Rebellion]
Elysia controlled Hiko on the warship's deck, swinging a greatsword.
Watching the Schicksal chs fall one after another, a subtle sense of accomplishnt rose in Elysia's heart.
"Hiko's controls feel pretty nice~~ I'll pull for her after I finish the main story."
At the mont, Hiko wasn't very popular in Honkai Impact 3rd.
Even though she was the first playable character after the initial trio in the main story, her weakness actually hurt her popularity.
Moreover, her character design just wasn't as appealing as the others.
It wouldn't be wrong to say that Hiko was currently the least popular character in Honkai Impact 3rd.
But with Hiko's growing presence in the main story, people's affection for her had gradually begun to rise.
At this point, no one realized the writer's devious intent.
And the only one who knew the truth—i—was struggling to hold it in.
As ti passed, when Elysia used the fourth-generation Valkyrie battlesuit Shadow Knight: Moonblade and defeated the Judgent-class Honkai Beast with Fu Hua—
"Easy-peasy~~ Beautiful girl rescue plan is progressing smoothly~~"
Elysia humd a light tune and happily gave her review: "Super easy."
Without hesitation, she clicked into Chapter 8 to continue her mission of rescuing beautiful girls.
"So many stages default to Hiko~~"
While controlling Hiko to advance, Elysia comnted, "But I really like the strong, mature, and reliable Miss Hiko."
[What Miss Hiko? Call her Auntie!]
[Hiko: Who dares call Auntie? Clearly hasn't tasted Skyfire Pride!]
[As expected, Miss Fairy is gentle to everyone.]
[Not gonna lie, miHoYo's writers are amazing. Every character has their shining monts. I used to skip all the story, but now I'm glued to the screen.]
"Gotta finish the main story and pull for Hiko~~"
Just as Elysia made that cheerful decision, a CG featuring Rita Rossweisse caught her attention.
[Ah… such a headache…]
Rita pulled at her gloves with one hand, revealing just her chin, her voice brimming with mystique.
[Looks like a thorough cleanup is in order.]
[After all, Lady Durandal values cleanliness.]
As her words fell, a red flash burst forth—Rita elegantly sliced through the oncoming Honkai Beasts, then lifted the hem of her maid skirt and greeted Fu Hua.
Poised and deadly—this dangerous charm gave Rita a unique allure that set the live chat into a frenzy.
"I like Rita too~♪"
[Honestly, Miss Fairy, is there anyone you don't like?]
"I really like everyone in Honkai Impact 3rd, especially i~"
Elysia replied without hesitation, then refocused on the unfolding story.
As more characters appeared, the plot gradually reached its climax.
She could barely wait to see what happened next.
"They'll probably rescue Kiana and go back to sweet and peaceful daily life~~ I want to see the adorable girls spreading sugar~~"
Elysia was full of anticipation.
The story progressed further.
Through the dialogue between Rita and Fu Hua—
Players learned that Fu Hua seed to have a deeper reason for capturing Kiana Kaslana.
What surprised Elysia was that by Chapter 8, nearly every segnt of the story was followed by a short cinematic.
This approach undeniably boosted player imrsion—a completely new experience for players in this world.
It even prompted many industry professionals to start taking notes mid-play.
They were preparing to apply Honkai Impact 3rd's success to their own gas.
"Hiko and Dr. Tesla were captured by Rita?"
"Why does it feel like everything is going according to Otto's plan?"
"The Hyperion… my ship…"
The plot had now reached the point where Otto awakened the Herrscher of the Void.
The Hyperion violently shook. i vanished from the ship.
And then—Kiana cradling i princess-style appeared on screen.
Logically, Elysia should've been thrilled by this mont—but Kiana's strange expression gave her a bad feeling.
Sure enough, as Kiana spoke, signs of Herrscher transformation began to appear on her body.
The battle began.
"i vs. Kiana?"
Elysia instinctively dodged several attacks while controlling her character, only then realizing what the plot had just shown.
"If I control i to defeat Kiana, she should return to normal, right?"
"After all, i sounded super confident just now~~"
Her natural optimism quickly cald her down.
But i—who was still on the voice call—rembered the misery she would soon suffer in the upcoming CG, and couldn't help but twitch her lips.
She could clearly feel the writer's malice toward her.
Seriously, if she was going to get wrecked, why act so confidently beforehand?
Trying to maximize the contrast for emotional damage?
Real-world i was already on edge, while in-ga i was still dramatically monologuing.
She blocked the Herrscher's attacks while saying heartfelt lines, trying to awaken Kiana with love.
And seeing that, both Elysia and the livestream viewers were completely imrsed—hoping i would succeed through love alone.
Only i, knowing what was coming next, wanted to curl her toes through the floor in embarrassnt.
Just then, the screen shifted. The ga entered a CG animation.
After multiple revisions by Hokuto and Durandal—
This animation was absolutely top-tier in the industry!
In the animation—
The Herrscher of the Void Kiana gripped i by the throat.
"Ki… ana…"
At that cry—
The golden glow in the Herrscher's eyes instantly vanished.
She clutched her face and scread in pain. But monts later, under i's worried gaze, she sneered with disdain.
A golden cube appeared above her head, spinning rapidly and forming into a grotesque vertical eye.
As black lightning burst forth, a pitch-black portal opened—destination unknown.
Even light seed lost within that portal.
The next mont—
A Honkai Beast erged from its depths.
With clawed limbs like lances, it lunged at i, viciously swatting her away—
Then appeared behind her, raising its weapon to strike her head without rcy.
At that critical mont—
Anti-Entropy's Titan chs appeared, blocking the Honkai Beast's attack.
More Titans charged in from the distance, leaping past i and storming the battlefield.
The music swelled—
The Herrscher of the Void unfurled her skirt like a queen's mantle.
Her queenly aura burst forth—an oppressive presence without a single word.
The battle was on the verge of erupting.
The livestream chat froze in awe.
They couldn't believe a ga could have animation this stunning.
Unimaginable.
This was CG from a mobile ga?
Even in the ani industry, it would utterly outclass most dostic titles.
miHoYo had truly shocked everyone!
And the CG… continued.
