Or is it a failure to inherit the name 'Walter'?
In any case, this man has lost completely.
Ignoring the figure crashing to the ground behind her, kicking up a cloud of snow dust, Bronya, landing slowly on the ground, calmly addressed Seele's questioning gaze:
"Don't worry about him."
"His body couldn't hold up for long if he used that power without any restraint."
Jiang Qiao seemed to have overestimated that man—even if he had fallen into becoming a puppet controlled by the Honkai, he would still be a half-baked idiot.
Due to a mental breakdown, the 'First Herrscher' even lost the ability to do sit-ups.
Add to that the collapse of his beliefs—or perhaps Mr. Yang Chaoyue never had any beliefs to begin with; he was merely driven by hatred, resentment, and shame, and forced to get to where he is today.
As for attacking the other party as before.
Although the original owner of this body did indeed do such a thing, unfortunately Jiang Qiao was not as sentimental as Bronya.
...The core of the Lawgiver of Reason?
—That is merely a shadow that has detached itself from the original world.
It has no value whatsoever.
As for this world—
Bronya's gaze shifted to Kiana and Raiden Mei, who were still alive. Their eyes were clearly filled with wariness and fear as they looked at her.
He remembered that this world was originally supposed to be a large labyrinth component constructed and fabricated by Welt through the Herrscher of Reason—meaning it should have been fake.
But now that everything is different, Jiang Qiao can sense that this world is not a false one; it is a paradoxical product of the original world, a shadow that has fallen away and then overlapped in a disordered way.
Otherwise, it would be impossible for Valkyrie Kiana and Raiden Mei to appear on the Second Great Honkai Battlefield to participate in the battle against the Herrscher of the Void, a plot point that clearly contains a serious time error.
It is the prototype of the world bubble that Lao Yang used to construct the maze.
"Those that will fall into the sea of quantum mechanics are those worlds that have already lost their future and their possibilities."
Just like the mysterious rabbit in the story, or Yae Mist.
If left unchecked, it will probably be destroyed in no time.
The girl fell into a brief silence, and Seele wisely did not disturb her—although she did not know what Bronya was thinking, she felt it must be something very important.
"That's fine."
An endless bubble of the world is difficult to save by one's own strength, at least in terms of completing one's own plans. But since a lucky encounter has occurred, one might as well lend a hand.
"Seele, come with me."
As he said this, the heavily armed bunny suddenly appeared and supported the bewildered little sister's hair.
Then, a gap appeared in the space.
They left the world bubble and entered the quantum sea—allowing them to examine the world they had just seen from the outside.
"Su, give me a hand."
"..."
"You are..."
The enlightened one, Tianhui, seemed to have guessed what Jiang Qiao was about to do, and his expression was somewhat complicated.
Although he really wanted to refuse, in order to send it out of the Sea of Quanta more quickly, Su could only sigh and silently choose to help.
—The Thousand Worlds at the bottom of the Thames shone brightly in his mind, and was linked to the 'Bronya' through the unique way of the Spiritual Sensing Fusion Warrior.
At the same time, the power of Sumeru Mustard Seed is also being mobilized.
"First rated power - horizon inversion".
Although it was her first time using it, Bronya, as the Herrscher of Truth, quickly mastered how to use it—and with a soft shout, she unleashed the same technique that had once trapped Kevin in the depths of the Quantum Sea.
As a spatial sealing ability, this technique can fold a world bubble into a point mass and then sink it to the bottom of the quantum sea where the energy is lowest.
However, for Jiang Qiao, who is both the 'Herrscher of Truth' and has used the 'Herrscher of Void', the use of this technique is not so simple.
"Seal the mass of the entire world through the authority of imaginary numbers—and then..."
【Look for possibilities (exploration of existence)】
Utopian construction
"Holy Sword... Shadow Randel!"
As obscure, slightly formulaic English was uttered, 'Durandal,' a creation of the pinnacle of pre-civilization technology that Durandal once used to divide the world, appeared in 'Bronya's' hands.
"Sister Bronya!"
Seele cried out in surprise—quantum shadows began to appear all around. This didn't surprise Bronya; after all, this was the Sea of Quanta, and it would be strange if Bronya, as an apostle of imaginary numbers, didn't respond to such arrogant use of power.
"Little rabbit, hold on for me for one minute."
A portion of the power was projected onto the Heavy Bunny, enabling it to fight against the quantum shadows.
The girl, on the other hand, accelerated the release of her power.
With a 'whoosh', the entire world bubble, centered on the Holy Sword Durandal, transformed into a crystal ball and fell into Bronya's hands.
"Seele, consider this a gift for you."
"Eh...Eh—!?"
Seeing the silver-haired girl chuckle as she handed her the crystal ball—Seele was first stunned, then her face lit up with astonishment. If she wasn't mistaken... this thing should be a world-sized bubble tea?!
Bronya... just gifted me a world?!
Although a bubble world cannot be equated with a complete world—Yang Chaoyue's world has theoretically lost its possibility, just like the Hacker Rabbit world, which only contains a small part of the complete map—there is no doubt that it can still be called a world.
To give herself a world as a gift... Seele's cheeks flushed red.
She took the crystal ball somewhat blankly, and through its crystalline shell, she could see a vibrant, snow-white world inside.
Bronya, so this is what romance is all about...
"Alright, Seele, let's go home."
Looking at the silver-haired girl's outstretched hand, Miss Blue Wendy hesitated for a moment because she was too surprised, but after a moment of reaction, she pounced on 'Bronya' - as expected of the nutrition gathered by the orphanage, although she didn't look big, she was much better than this 'promising' body.
This is how Mr. Jiang, who has won the heart of the beauty, commented.
"Ah sneeze——!"
Bronya, who was in the Paradise of the Past, training in the basics with Hua, sneezed unexpectedly and scratched her head in confusion.
So, even the realm of consciousness can sneeze?
...Hmm, could it be that Seele is thinking about Bronya?
A thought flashed through my mind, and the duck's expression immediately became much more serious and focused, and my distracted attention returned to normal.
He focused on cultivating the Tai Xu Sword Qi that Hua had taught him.
Although the increase in martial power gained from cultivating the Void Sword Qi is of little use to Bronya, it can hone the practitioner's mastery and application of Honkai energy.
Cultivating one's spirit can also temper one's mind. The reason why the original Ya Ya was able to master the power of the Law of Reason was not only due to the trials and tribulations along the way and his perseverance, but also mainly because of the Tai Xu Sword Qi taught by Fu Hua.
Otherwise, apart from the Schariac family, who are born with the ability to manipulate Honkai energy, Valkyries who are merely born with destiny would not be able to master how to use Honkai energy flexibly and freely.
Even though the Honkai energy in Paradise is very small, Paradise, which is itself a large-scale simulation facility, is more than enough for a novice like Bronya to practice on.
While Bronya felt somewhat anxious about this somewhat numbing and tedious training method—she still wanted to be faster, perhaps by taking a shortcut to bring Seele back from the Sea of Quanta—she was relatively satisfied with her current life.
This paradise, which stores the memories of the thirteen heroes of the past, also contains many games created by previous civilizations, which were recorded due to the personal hobbies of some of the heroes. For example, there is a fox, a second time, and a cat that opens the door. Even if it is not all of the previous civilization, these crystallized treasures of a civilization are enough to satisfy YaYa, a hardcore gamer.
She had already planned it all out: after bringing Seele back, she would come here to secretly play games whenever she had nothing to do.
Ahem—Bronya wasn't addicted to the game. She felt that since taking Sakura's advice and coming to learn from Hua, her mastery of the Herrscher of Reason's powers had clearly improved in every gesture.
Sure enough, I, Duck Duck, am a genius! (Proud face)
Wait, Seele, Bronya will come to rescue you after she finishes her training!
...
It's truly a joyful thing to have passed Dr. Spassy's test, become his student, and join the Firemoth, a group I've always wanted to join.
Everything was exactly as he had expected—the truth about the incurable disease called 'Honkai Disease', which was prevalent all over the world, was indeed hidden within the Moths of Fire.
But the truth behind it was so shocking that he, who was learning the truth about the world for the first time, was unable to calm down for a while... Recalling the pink-haired girl he met during the day, Su couldn't help but sigh.
Half of his mental exhaustion today, no... 90%, comes from the other party.
Fortunately, the woman named Alicia didn't keep an eye on him. Dr. Spacy offered to go with her to what was supposedly the 'Firemoth Fifth Base' for inspection. Since he was new to Firemoth, he wasn't qualified... no, it seemed that due to some issues with the Fifth Science Department, Spacy suggested that Su maintain his previous life for the time being and gradually learn about Firemoth before joining once the situation stabilized. Su accepted this suggestion.
Tired, I started my journey home, and saw a message from Kevin on my phone's messaging app—
Kevin: My shower is broken, can I borrow yours?
Su smiled and didn't seem to care.
Because they are good friends, they live very close to each other and are quite frugal. The apartment they live in is the kind that is a bit old-fashioned. The advantage is that it is relatively cheap, but the disadvantage is that the infrastructure is outdated. This is not unusual in Europe, and in such situations, it becomes very common for them to share the space with each other.
Because they are close friends—Kevin had even said that if bringing MEI to the concert would make Sue feel awkward, then they should just leave MEI out and go together as a couple.
