Chapter 193: Ashborn & Higokumaru VS Sirin (2)

Time returned to normal, and Sirin's attack had directly hit Ashborn and left his body with holes in several parts plus corrosion wounds.

Sirin smiled at this before her expression changed, she saw Ashborn's perforated body parts including the corrosion wounds covered in shadows before returning to normal and attacking her again.

'The guy in front of me was a clone!' she thought before using her [Gravity] ability and pushing the clone away.

*Swoosh!*

The clone was blown away at high speed before slowly fading into some sort of black slime and falling back to the ground before reforming.

Sirin's eyes narrowed as she saw this, she realized that the clone could not be destroyed unless she defeated the original Ashborn.

'This is a little troublesome...'

Fighting this clone was only a minor problem, after all she could bind the clone using the Eleventh Herrscher's [Binding] ability which had the ability to neutralize any energy including Honkai energy.

The problem now was that Ashborn might have been hiding nearby and let his clones outwit herself.

She could not search for Ashborn because he had erased the air of his existence using the [Shadow] ability.

"Well then..." Sirin cupped her hands like catching an insect then activated the [Gravity] ability and made herself a magnetic field attraction point that attracted anything.

[Banshō Ten'in!]

Sirin used her ability brilliantly, this could be seen from the appearance of 9 Ashborns hidden from various directions in a 10-meter radius near Sirin.

"So that's where you guys are hiding." Sirin said with a confident smile before slamming them to the ground hard with [Gravity].

*BAM!*

One of the Ashborn who was knocked to the ground could be seen bleeding slightly from his mouth.

Realizing this, Sirin used the [Gravity] ability to pull the Ashborn close to her, of course in a rough manner, in mid-air the Ashborn was clutching his neck as if he was being strangled.

Sirin ignored him and simply said with her hands behind her back, "Hmph! You are indeed strong, but you boast too much about your strength before this queen. "

"aRugh! Argh... Urghhnnn!" Ashborn looked like he wanted to say something, but his neck had been strangled using the [Gravity] ability.

Under the reflection of Sirin's pupils, Ashborn could was kicking the air, she looked at him coldly as if staring at ants.

"Hmph! Now die." She said before breaking Ashborn's neck.

*Crack!*

A crunchy sound was clearly heard coming out of Ashborn's neck and then it stopped moving without any sign of life, the clones on the move were also slowly disappearing.

Sirin then dropped Ashborn's corpse and said in a scornful tone, "You fool, this is what happens if you fight me?"

"Really?"

Sirin's expression instantly froze, she felt a cold knife on her neck, her eyes were unconsciously about to glance and said tremblingly, "How-"

*Swish!*

The knife instantly cut Sirin's neck neatly and easily, with her head cut off, Sirin at the last second saw Ashborn behind her and looked at her with cold glowing purple eyes.

*Thud!*

Sirin's head and body fell simultaneously to the ground.

Ashborn stood still and stared at Sirin's head which was staring at him with wide open eyes as if wondering why he was behind her.

"Complete." That was all he said, Ashborn whose head had been broken by Sirin was seen turning into a shadow before disappearing.

As you can see the Ashborn whose neck was broken was a clone, then how could he spit out blood because the original Ashborn had given him blood that was stored in the clone's mouth before being released at the right time.

This plan was actually very risky because there was a possibility that Sirin immediately threw her spears while the clones were rooted to the ground.

But fortunately, Sirin was still a little girl who was not very experienced.

After all, how did Sirin not think about the limit of clones he could make? Or how he was too easy to find and so on.

Thinking of all this, he then approached Sirin's body slowly to retrieve Herrscher's core.

Higokumaru who was watching from afar felt something strange, how could this [Imaginary Space] still run when its creator had died?

What's more... Why was there no reaction from the Will of Honkai when Sirin was about to be killed?

A bad premonition suddenly appeared in her mind making her expression change, she raised her head and shouted to Ashborn.

"[STOP ASHBORN! STAY AWAY FROM SIRIN'S CORPSE!]"

Higokumaru's loud shout made Ashborn's movements stop and subconsciously wanted to jump away except that his actions were a step slower, Sirin's headless body was seen to have held his right hand tightly before activating the [Vapor of Serenity] ability.

"Urgh!" Ashborn who was caught off guard without hesitation immediately cut off his right hand and jumped away.

Ashborn's right hand was seen within seconds turning to ash in Sirin's hand.

Sirin's head rolled closer to her body and in less than a second her head was reconnected to her body, as Sirin slowly stood up.

"... You think you can kill this queen? Hah! In your dreams! With the blessing of 'God', I have unlimited energy and an immortal body. You won't be able to defeat me!" Sirin said with a haughty smile not caring that she had 'died' before.

Ashborn held his bleeding right hand, in a cold sweat he took off his belt and tied it tightly around his right hand to stop the bleeding.

Hearing Sirin's words, Higokumaru's expression then changed upon hearing that Sirin was immortal.

'This is really serious!' As her mind was filled with worry, Ashborn who had a serious expression then asked her.

"Higokumaru, do you know how to defeat her? "

Arahato seemed to freeze for a moment before Higokumaru's voice came out in an unsure tone.

"[There is... One way, but-]"

"Good, then what should I do?" Ashborn immediately interrupted Higokumaru and looked at her with calm eyes, as calm as the sea.

Looking at Ashborn, KOURO's figure instantly overlapped with him, those calm eyes, those eyes as calm as the sea looked exactly the same as him.

Thinking of this, Higokumaru then used telepathy to Ashborn, ["Sirin has Immortal body and unlimited energy because she is connected to the Will of Honkai. Therefore, in order for that that annoying blessing to disappear, we must sever Sirin's connection with the Will of Honkai. "]

["Fortunately, I know a place that can isolate Sirin from the Will of Honkai. That's why I want you to restrain Sirin in her place so that she doesn't run away when I bring her to that place."]

"A place?" muttered Ashborn before his eyes lit up slightly as if he realized something.

The place Higokumaru was referring to was likely the place where The End's Herrscher Core shards were sealed, a place Dr. Mobius was desperately searching for.

"Understood. " said Ashborn.

["I think you've realized that, so that's why I'm a bit worried if we don't manage to defeat her even after isolating Sirin in that place and instead make her even stronger by getting the second Herrscher of the End core shard."] Higokumaru expressed his concern.

"We have no other choice anyway, right?" Ashborn said calmly.

Higokumaru reluctantly nodded her head.

Ashborn did not say anything, he looked at Sirin who was currently a little dreamy and touched her neck as if still feeling the pain of her neck being cut.

"Let's start the plan. "

A shadow crept into Ashborn's right hand before turning into a temporary hand.

He tried to control his right hand before nodding in satisfaction that the shadow hand could move as naturally as the real hand.

Ashborn calculated that he had been in this [Imaginary Space] for 15 minutes.

He had no idea where Kouro and Welt were, he was sure that sooner or later the two of them would show up as help but he could not pin his hopes on something that was uncertain.

Ashborn summoned THOUSANDS of Clones before scattering and running at high speed towards Sirin.

*Swoosh!*

Sirin raised her head with an angry expression and fired several white spears separately at each Ashborn.

"You annoying bug! "

Some Ashborns dodged it with minimal movement while others were impaled by the white spears before pulling them out and approaching Sirin again.

50 meters.

30 meters.

5 meters. 

Sirin was unable to run as she was surrounded by Ashborn from various directions, they had also anticipated all her abilities.

"F*CK!" shouted Sirin before subconsciously using the [Gravity] ability and pushing them at high speed making a supersonic impact.

[Shinra Tensei!]

*Boom!*

The bodies of the clones were thrown into the air before falling to the ground like rain.

It was all in vain as this did not have any impact on the real Ashborn and the clones also started the attack again.

"Damn it!" Sirin said gritting teeth at the sight of thousands of Ashborns surrounding her from all directions.

Even if she had deployed a destructive ability like [Vortex of Serenity] or anything else, as long as the original Ashborn was not affected, the clones would immediately revive like an immortal army.

Then as if it had been determined, all the Ashborn controlled their shadows into some sort of rope before throwing it towards Sirin tying her up.

"What-" Sirin was caught off guard by their actions.

"HIGOKUMARU NOW!" the Ashborn shouted.

Higokumaru who had come out of the Robot Arahato instantly glided flying towards them before performing a strange hand seal before placing her hand on Sirin's head.

"Hah!"

After that Higokumaru then glowed bright red, drowning all the clones including Ashborn himself and Sirin into that red light.

...

Ashborn opened his eyes only to find himself inside a kind of magnificent palace enough to fit hundreds of thousands of people whose walls were made of pink-colored crystal covered in white marble.

The floor he stepped on was clear with a hint of pink, even the top of the palace was made of pink glass with flowers carved into it.

But none of that made his let go of his gaze.

At the far end of the palace, there was a two-tiered altar that was slightly purplish pink with white lines.

At the top of the altar was a kind of pink flower-shaped crystal floating while spinning, while at the bottom was a fragment of the Herrscher of the end core floating in the air without any defense.

"This place... "

"Welcome to my [Imaginary Space], 'Elysian Palace'." said someone from beside him.

Ashborn immediately turned his head to the side only to see Higokumaru who had grown into a girl around 15 years old.

"I see... I finally understand why Dr. Mobius couldn't find this place." Ashborn muttered.

As explained earlier, the [Imaginary Space] was a domain created by a Herrscher so that they had full power over it.

"That's it. Come show me your right hand, let me heal it."

"Huh?" Ashborn raised his eyebrows but still showed his right hand which had been cut off up to the elbow.

Fortunately the bleeding had stopped only that the regeneration was really slow due to the wound's decay accelerated by Sirin's [Time] authority.

Higokumaru did not say anything, she pointed both her hands towards Ashborn's right hand, a red glow was seen from Ashborn's right hand before quickly forming a new hand.

"How is it? Inside this [Imaginary Space] what I 'wish' will soon be realized, of course as long as what I wish makes sense." Higokumaru said with a slightly arrogant tone.

Ashborn moved his right hand which moved naturally without any discomfort.

"Makes sense... So that's the reason Sirin isn't moving right now?" said Ashborn before glancing at Sirin who was about 500 meters away from the two of them.

Sirin was currently seen wearing a blank expression with her body stopped moving as if frozen.

"Of course not, if I could use my abilities that freely, I would have pulled Sirin to this place long ago." replied Higokumaru with a sullen expression before looking at Sirin.

"She is likely in shock now that her connection with the Will of Honkai has been severed, this is our golden opportunity. "

"But don't forget that she has the authority of [Space], I can't stop her if she forcibly escapes from this place, Well... Although I rather doubt she'll do that considering there's a core fragment of the Herrscher of the End here. " Higokumaru continued.

Ashborn glanced at the altar with a pensive expression before turning his attention back towards Sirin and saying, "I see. "

Sirin seemed to regain her senses, she turned to stare at the two of them with a furious expression, a sharp gale of wind rushing out of her towards Higokumaru and Ashborn.

"I'M DEFINITELY GOING TO KILL YOU!" Sirin shouted.

Higokumaru took out a katana from the sheath whose blade had a reddish-black color and set up a fighting stance.

"This time we will fight together with Ashborn."

As she said that, a large humanoid faint figure wearing a samurai-like body armor with two large katanas in each hand appeared behind her.
