Kouro stirred awake as he opened his eyes slowly, staring at the ceiling illuminated by the bright light from the bedroom lamp that made him squint his eyes, it took him a while to get used to the light after which, he opened his status interface.

"Yo! You finally woke up, as expected of someone capable of fighting Honkai Beasts, Zombies, and Mecha Titans head-on without a Battlesuit. You recovered faster than expected."

Kouro heard a voice belonging to a little girl, he turned around and looked at the source of the voice and saw a white-haired 'little girl' wearing a nun's outfit with a big cross, twice the size of her body situated on her back, sitting beside the hospital bed.

If it isn't Principal Theresa? The #1 cutest girl in the world, at least she claimed to be.

Kouro then glanced at the large cross, 'Isn't this the famed 'Oath of Judah'? One of the most powerful weapons in the world?'

Kouro's eyes lingered on the Oath of Judah for a short while before looking back at Theresa.

"Thank s for the compliment… so, how long have I been out of commission and where is this? Inside the aerial battleship Hyperion, or St. Freya Academy?"

"You were only out for a whole day, and you are currently at St. Freya Academy, the only school in the world that trains Valkyries to fight Honkai. By the way, since you are a boy, it would seem a bit strange to call you a 'Valkyrie'." Theresa replied.

She remembered the organization she left behind, "Schicksal". An organization that trains Valkyries in a machine-like, high-intensity training manner.

This was also part of the reason why she separated herself from Schicksal, to oppose their cold treatment of Valkyries.

Theresa jumped from her chair, Kouro could hear a squeaking sound coming from the chair dur to the weight of the large cross she was carrying.

She observed Kouro from top to bottom as if looking at t rare beasts and said, "Do you know? As a male, you have a very rare qualifications, but at the same time could make the wrong choice. As a male, being able to survive the Honkai corruption at birth is already a one in a thousandth chance, coupled with that, you also have very high physical strength."

Theresa continued, "Your Honkai adaptability is even higher than that of an S-rank Valkyrie. (Theresa concluded this because Kouro is able to forcefully absorb Honkai Energy and still survive.) There are so many options available for you, yet why did you take the path against the Honkai? This path is very dangerous and there are already enough Valkyries taking this path, you don't need to do the same as well."

Noticing the girl's curiosity, Kouro just smiled, "Hasn't principal Theresa invited me to St. Freya Academy, why are you starting to doubt me again?"

Theresa replied, "Joining St. Freya Academy doesn't mean you have to be a Valkyrie to fight Honkai, you can also become a researcher, or do any other job that provides logistical and medical support. Compared to being a Valkyrie, other jobs are relatively safer."

Kouro just stared at Theresa in silence, he the said, "Do you think I would prefer a non-combat profession with a higher survival rate?"

"No, so I wonder why you chose this path resolutely." 

Kouro closed his eyes and memories of his previous life flashed in his mind, albeit blurry, he saw the struggles Kiana, Bronya, Mei, Welt Joyce, and Welt Yang, Himeko, as well as the members of MANTIS (Fu Hua and Kevin), even though he only witnessed their struggle from the screen inside the game, he could still feel their struggle against Honkai, they bring hope.

Deep in Kouro's heart, when he was reincarnated into this world, he wanted to be like the someone who brought hope to mankind, that's why he worked really hard.

After a while, Kouro opened his eyes now shining a bright purple. Theresa could see the flame of determination in Kouro's eyes before she heard him answer in a deep and firm voice.

 

"The Honkai is a catastrophe and will only bring destruction. Those who dare take responsibility to fight against Honkai are the hope of mankind. Someone once said to me, "With great power, come great responsibility", I have the power to fight Honkai, so I will take responsibility. Are you satisfied with my reason?"

Theresa stared at Kouro deeply, she finally understood. Kouro is an idealist, but she doesn't hate that part of him, after all, it is people like Kouro who have always been the light of hope for mankind.

Theresa smile and said, "I accept your reasoning. Since you got you mobility back, come with me, Kiana, Mei, and Bronya are waiting for you. I will arrange a dormitory for them first. They refused earlier because they wanted to wait for you to wake up first."

Kouro stood up from the hospital bed and stretched his slightly stiff body, and after doing that, he followed behind Theresa out of the ward, through the corridor and into a villa.

Kouro noticed various sports equipment that patients need for rehabilitation treatment.

Kiana, Mei, and Bronya were currently resting on a resting chair at the side staring at nothing, when they heard the sounds of footsteps, they raised their heads and saw Kouro walking with Theresa.

Kiana and Mei showed a relieved smile while Bronya only have a faint smile but considering that her brain is damaged that caused most of her emotions to disappear, this showed that she was very happy to see Kouro. 

"Kouro! You finally woke up!" Kiana lunged towards Kouro, wanting to hug him. She had currently forgotten the difference between men and women and thus forgot the proper decorum, but she had not forgotten that Kouro is currently still recovering, so she stopped herself abruptly.

Whereas Mei is walking slowly to his direction with worry present in her eyes, it was just that she didn't use any gestures to express her feelings and only smiled happily, causing the Herrscher personality inside her that was also watching all of this to grit her teeth.

Precisely because Mei's gentle personality makes her (Herrscher Mei) unable to assert her sovereignty over Kouro and could not stop other evil women from approaching Kouro, it makes her very displeased with the original personality, this is also why Herrscher Mei called Raiden Mei a coward.

Herrscher Mei is eager to take possession of the body and protect Kouro from the abuse of other evil women.

However, she can't do that because she was just born, in order to be able to take over the body from the original personality, it would require a surge of psychological fluctuations or , or even when the original personality's life is in danger other than that, there is no other way to be able to forcibly take over the body.

Damn it!

Herrscher Mei had tried many times, but ultimately failed, so she began to think of ways to change the situation.

Although she could wait as she continues to grow over time until one day, she could forcefully take over the body, at least it wouldn't be as difficult as it is now, but Herrscher Mei didn't want to wait any longer.

As for her mission of destroying the world as a Herrscher?

Mei became a Herrscher because of the Gem of Conquest that is inside her body (it belongs to Second Herrscher), she was born as a Herrscher due to the high concentration of Honkai Energy instigated by Cocolia.

(E/D: Remember that the Gem of Conquest is a fragment of the 2nd Herrscher's core.)

Herrscher Mei's original personally from the moment it was born was an anomaly, she only knew that she had a mission to destroy the world, but she didn't know why she had such a mission.

Herrscher Mei's personality as a newborn was confused at the time, but after she had inherited Mei's memories, she was no longer confused.

Compared to the obscure mission of destroying the world, it is more important to get Kouro back.

Herrscher Mei recalled Kouro's actions from earlier.

From the negotiation with Theresa to forcing his already injured body to take hold of Himeko as hostage to give herself a bright future.

Herrscher Mei's personality who saw it all considered Kouro more important than her unclear mission, even if she carried out his mission, Kouro would definitely be furious, and she didn't want to be scolded by Kouro. 

If Raiden Mei would only sit idly by the side, Kouro will definitely be snatched by another woman!

Previously. 

Exactly before Kouro and Theresa arrived at the Villa.

Theresa, who was walking down the corridor, stopped, and asked, "By the way Kouro, since you chose the same path as a Valkyrie, isn't it a bit strange if you are also called a Valkyrie, you know, it being a title for a woman at all."

Kouro paused and suddenly realized that what Theresa said was true, Valkyrie is a term for a female and because he is a man, it would not be suitable to call him a Valkyrie.

Therefore, after thinking for a while, Kouro replied, "Since Valkyrie is for women, then I will choose Einherjar."

Theresa double-take after hearing his answer and said with a bit of surprise, "Einherjar? A one-man army? Hmm… If I think about it more clearly, that title suits you too well."

And thus, the most powerful Einherjar is born.
