Chương 197: The Greatest Second Eruption (1)

Anti-Entropy Headquarters.

In the room, Tesla, Welt, Einstein and Sakura were sitting in a corner discussing plans.

Einstein then flipped through her notes and said calmly.

"Let's first discuss what has happened this time. The Herrscher of the End has obtained her second core fragment, from the information provided by Mr. Ashborn, we know that there are four Herrscher core fragments scattered."

"Two have been obtained by Herrscher of the End, only two more remain, one fragment is in the hands of World Serpent, while the other is unknown. The Herrscher of the End can sense where the other shards are. That means we don't have much time now."

"Moreover, Herrscher of the End's authority is [Time] and she can use the authority of the other Herrscher." Welt added.

"Mophead! Seeing you so calm, do you already have a plan in mind?" asked Tesla with folded arms.

"I have a rough plan, but I don't want to use that plan. We should work with the World Serpent through Ashborn. The organization has likely anticipated the Herrscher of the End's arrival." Einstein said as he shrugged his shoulders.

"What about Schicksal?" asked Welt while remembering the sly Otto.

"Ashborn had previously informed him that the Herrscher of the End had resurrect, it is possible that Overseer Otto wants to work with us to fight the Herrscher together with the World Serpent." Einstein replied.

"Hah! In the end we can only depend on others!" Tesla said, biting her lip.

Seeing the two of them talking to each other, Welt turned to look at Sakura who was wearing a dreamy expression.

Sakura had put on that expression after coming out of Ashborn's room, he didn't know what the two of them were talking about but...

After coming out Sakura also made a request to him to preserve Higokumaru's corpse...

'It seems that Miss Sakura wants to give Miss Higokumaru a proper burial... Unfortunately, the timing wasn't right, so that's why she asked Einstein and Tesla to preserve Higokumaru's body.' Welt thought with a gentle expression.

Just when he wanted to comfort her, a loud alarm suddenly went off startling them all.

*DING!*

Einstein opened the virtual world map on the monitor screen and stared at the giant red dot that filled the European continent.

"She's coming." Welt said with a serious expression.

"I'll tell Ashborn!" said Sakura with a serious expression before standing up and running out to Ashborn's room.

But when she entered, there was no one in the room.

Ashborn had left.

...

At the same time.

In World Serpent.

Mobius stared at the interface screen showing a red dot somewhere with a sinking expression.

"I didn't expect that the place she visited first was that place. "

"Heh~ Maybe because he was the one who defeated her first, so as a tribute, she went to his grave?" asked AI Vill-V who was also staring at the red dot while rubbing her chin.

Hearing her babble, Mobius looked at her silently before saying, "Are you stupid? Do you still not remember the horror of the Herrscher of the End back then in the moon. If it wasn't for KOURO coming in time, the people who would have died wouldn't have been just Phyllis and Kalpas, you know?"

Seeing Mobius was angry, AI Vill-V could only wave her hands, "I know, I know~ I was just joking."

After saying that, her expression quickly turned calm and she said in a flat tone, "She's also likely to have gotten her hands on the third Herrscher core shard, there's only the last shard left with us, so she'll definitely come straight for us... Our chances of winning are dwindling, if only Kevin was here..."

After that, she turned to look at Mobius and asked, "So, Mobius, what are you planning to do with the last shard core? Do we need to throw it into the Sea of Quanta to buy some time?"

Mobius didn't answer right away, she stared at the red dot on the screen interface and put on a thinking expression, she was reminded of Aponia's words a while ago.

["The Savior of Light will be born to save the world."]

She didn't know what future Aponia saw because she didn't say anything more than that, but... If her words are true, Earth... Still had a chance to avoid destruction.

This was also why Vill-V could still joke about the critical situation now.

As long as the world was not destroyed, no matter how many humans died, they could still develop them again just like before.

Vill-V's thinking did seem very twisted. 

"The remaining MANTIS who can fight now are me, Aponia, Kosma, Hua and Griseo-chan. While those who can't are Kevin, SAKURA, Viil-V and Su..." Mobius muttered, before thinking.

'Kevin is currently trapped inside a bubble universe, SAKURA is still paralyzed, Vill-V is not a fighter, but she can help us in terms of technology and intel, for Su he is also inside the bubble universe to observe other worlds.'

For Personnel, there are Shadow, Ashborn, Gray Serpent and their clones.

Shadow if his seal is broken and used his Herrscher powers, he could be equivalent to Kosma in Active Honkai Reaction.

After thinking about this, she turned to look at Gray Serpent beside her and asked, "What about the process of evacuating the population into the Ark?"

Gray Serpent bowed his head slightly and said, "Thanks to Miss Aponia's help, we were able to evacuate about 70% of the world's population into the Ark."

As explained earlier, one of S.A.V.E.S's projects, Project Ark, had been changed to creating a sanctuary in another dimension similar to the [Imaginary Space].

At first Mobius and the others were not convinced by the change, but since Herrscher of Shadow had defeated the Herrscher of the End by a landslide.

They finally accepted the project change.

"Hoh?" Mobius raised her eyebrows at Gray Serpent's report.

"Good. After that, notify all personnel including SAKURA other than Shadow and Ashborn to immediately take refuge in the Ark." Mobius ordered.

Gray Serpent bowed his head before saying in a hoarse voice, "As ordered."

After paying his respects, he left.

Mobius then stared at the screen interface again for a long time before saying, "Order Kosma and the others including Shadow to approach the target immediately. We will ambush her."

After saying that, Mobius stood up and walked out.

"Good luck~"

Vill-V waved her hand to her before fading away.

....

At Schickal's headquarters.

"Overseer Otto! Honkai energy radiation has suddenly spread to reach 40% of the earth's surface after the Herrscher of the End appeared!" said one of the personnel with a worried expression mixed with fear.

Otto stared at the large screen infront of him with a pensive expression, Amber was standing silently beside him.

Otto remembered Ashborn's message to him that the Herrscher of the End had resurrected and would soon come to earth.

He also received a message from Welt to cooperate with him.

He did not know how strong the Herrscher of the End was but according to the legacy of knowledge they found, the Herrscher was the strongest Herrscher who possessed immense power.

Judging from how the Herrscher can spread Honkai radiation that reaches 40% of the earth's surface in an instant, it seems that the legacy of knowledge was  not wrong.

"What are you planning to do, Otto?" Someone's voice sounded from behind him.

Otto recognized the person speaking behind him, he didn't turn around just smiled and said calmly, "Well... I really didn't expect my plans to fall apart because of the 'Herrscher of the End'."

The original plan was to let Second Herrscher develop until she gained a new ability before brainwashing her and finding a way to revive Kallen using the Herrscher of Death's ability.

But due to a certain Variable, the Herrscher of the End suddenly rose and put the entire human race in danger of extinction.

He didn't know if he could use the same plan against the Herrscher of the End, but he didn't want to gamble because the knowledge he had and the facts before his eyes told him that the Herrscher of the End was extremely dangerous.

Dangerous enough that his plan was useless against her, after all... 'Any resistance is useless under absolute power.'

Thinking of this, Otto then turned to look at Fu Hua who was looking at him with a serious expression.

"My old friend, as someone who has fought the Herrscher of the End, do you have any advice? "

"Pull all the Valkyries around the world into the headquarters, Otto, they will all just be dead meat before the Herrscher of the End." Fu Hua replied.

"I see..." Otto muttered.

He then turned to look at Amber and said, "Order all the Valkyries around the world including Siegfried's team in the Lab tower to retreat to the headquarters, oh, right, don't forget to send a message to Anti-Entropy to cooperate with each other."

"Understood." Amber immediately did what he had ordered.

"Sir, Siegfried doesn't want to retreat and wants to join the fight, he seems to have informed by Anti-Entropy about the Herrscher of the End."

"Let it go." Otto said.

After that, Otto walked over to Fu Hua before saying in an interested tone, "My old friend, let's go meet that Herrscher... I want to see with my own eyes how dangerous she is."

"Are you sure?" asked Fu Hua while raising his eyebrows.

Fu Hua thought that Otto would use Siegfried or another Valkyrie as a sacrifice to see what the Herrscher of the End was capable of, but apparently not which made her raise her eyebrows.

"Of course."

In a hospital, in a patient's room.

Sagaki was talking to his son affectionately, Luna was also beside him while peeling apples for Hanagami.

Hanagami rarely seemed to speak, he just nodded his head or shook his head.

Sagaki then paused, as he felt the vibration of his cell phone in his shirt pocket.

Picking up his phone, he then saw a message before his expression turned serious for a moment before returning to normal.

He looked at Luna and said, "Honey, I'm going out to the bathroom first."

Luna didn't ask and nodded her head.

Sagaki looked at Hanagami and patted his head before heading out of the room.

He turned to look at Ashborn who was leaning against the wall not far from him with a serious expression before approaching him.

"Did the Herrscher of the End really rise? But why?"

"I won't lie about it and as for the reason why the Herrscher rose, you could say it was because of a variable."

"The Herrscher of the End has arrived on earth. I am here to take you and your family to the Ark." Ashborn said in a serious tone.

Hearing Ashborn's serious tone, Sagaki did not ask any more questions and immediately returned to Hanagami's room and told them both about what Ashborn had said.

Ashborn stared at the door of Hanagami's room with a calm expression and not long after, he saw Sagaki and Luna carrying Hanagami out and approached him.

"Come on, let's go right away."

Ashborn nodded his head as the shadows under his feet instantly widened before they sank into the shadows.

Somewhere in Europe.

'Sirin' was standing silently staring at a graveyard with a nameless headstone in front of it.

The graves were two in number and were protected by a dead tree.

"In the end... You die too..."

This graveyard she came to, was the place where had KOURO died.

An empty feeling arose in her heart staring at the grave of the person who was the only one who could defeat her.

She had also obtained her third core fragment; it was on another planet several light years away from planet earth.

It took a long time because it seemed that the false god (Will of Honkai) had realized her resurrection and took back the blessing that had been given to the original Sirin.

She didn't really care though, it was just that after she finished her business on earth, she would deal with the false god.

Then how did she know that this grave belonged to KOURO, because the 'knowledge' that the false god had given to the original Sirin was still in her mind.

'Sirin' raised her head to stare at the large tree in front of her before touching it and using her [Time] authority to turn back time.

The seasons changed backwards, and the speed became faster before the cherry blossom petals fell from the tree.

(E/D: Oh! Lord in heaven be show me the train! Made in Hebun!)

'Sirin' looked at the petals that fell into her hand and muttered, "I see... So, this tree is a Sakura tree."

Her hatred for KOURO had actually been washed away by the river of time and replaced by curiosity.

She closed her eyes and the silhouette of a black-haired man with purple eyes appeared in her mind.

Even after 50,000+ years had passed the memory still felt fresh in her mind, let alone KOURO's question that he asked her when they first met.

["Hey, Herrscher of the End, where do you think the soul goes when someone dies?"]

That question was shortly before KOURO turned into the Herrscher of Shadows, no, something greater than a Herrscher.

A God.

'Sirin' then opened her eyes and with a cold expression said, "So, you've come."

She then turned around and saw, Mobius, Ashborn, Kosma, Aponia, Griseo, Fu Hua, Otto, Shadow, Welt, and Siegfried.

(E/D: Imagine Sirin turning around like Darksied with the theme and everything.)

They were all looking at her with wary expressions.

'Sirin' looked at them one by one and recognized some of them.

"I hope you guys don't disappoint me."

Right after she said that an almighty aura instantly burst out of her body.

This day, Tuesday February 7, 2000, became a day recorded in the history of mankind.

The day referred to as....

'The Greatest Second Eruption'.
