Siegfried, Mobius, and the others' expressions frozen as they felt the gripping aura of the Herrscher of the End.
Kosma jumped as he was thrown back by the Honkai metal explosion created by Sirin's body.
He stood up slowly and for the first time wore a serious expression staring at the Herrscher of the End.
That gripping aura that felt familiar made him remember fighting her with Kevin and the others that was still felt fresh in his mind.
...
"... What the hell is this?..." Siegfried felt his body freeze, as a MANTIS now that [Honkai Active Reaction] was activated, his body had been comprehensively enhanced and that included his intuition.
His intuition was screaming at him to run away, the emotion of fear was radiated from within his body.
That fear was clearly engraved from within his genes as if he had once fought the Herrscher of the End.
Millions of Honkai Beasts seemed to stop moving and knelt down to the Herrscher of the End.
["Too bad... I can't help."] Kevin's voice sounded from beside him.
His eyes turned to look at him who wore a serious expression mixed with sadness before slowly fading away.
Siegfried gritted his teeth and bit his tongue before looking at Cecilia and Theresa.
They were frozen and trembling and looked terrified.
"Cecilia! Theresa!" He approached them and helped them to come to their senses.
Cecilia and Theresa who had regained consciousness were panting in cold sweat.
"What the hell... How can there be a living being that has that kind of gripping Aura." Theresa muttered shakily, her intuition was the same as Siegfried shouting for her to run.
"You must retreat!" Siegfried shouted to the two of them, from the memories of his Kaslana genes he knew very well how terrifying the Herrscher of the End was at full power.
Eliminating humanity was as easy as turning a hand to her, no one could defeat her except one person.
The Herrscher of Shadows.
Unfortunately, the Herrscher of Shadows had not been born yet.
"No! What about you, Siegfried?" Cecilia asked with a worried expression.
Siegfried's expression looked determined, he gave Cecilia a long look before smiling, "I have to be here, you have to stay alive, Cecilia. You must take care of Kiana."
After that, he then looked at Theresa, "Theresa, please take care of Cecilia."
Theresa could only nod her head seeing how determined Siegfried was.
Hearing this, Cecilia looked at Siegfried with watery eyes, she then bit her lip until it bled, her eyes turned to stare at the Herrscher of the End for a long time before turning around with Theresa.
But then, her eyes quickly turned to look at Sirin who was lying unconscious not far from them.
"Theresa... Can you pick that girl up using the chains of the Oath of Judah?"
Her emotions somehow told her to also bring the girl.
Theresa nodded her head and did not ask why, she knew Sirin's past, she was just a victim now, therefore when told to take her too, Theresa did not feel any objection.
She manipulated the chains of the Oath of Judah and took Sirin before heading away from the battlefield.
Looking at them, Siegfried did not mind the two of them carrying Sirin, his expression then turned serious and stared at the Herrscher of the End who had been hovering silently.
His hand held the Might of An-Utu very tightly.
...
Mobius and Otto who saw Herrscher of the End floating in the air without doing anything with a blank expression realized something.
"Hua [Edge of Taixuan]'s attack did hit her, her consciousness is now damaged! " Mobius announced.
"We must not waste this opportunity, we must attack her now!" said Welt before manifesting a missile launching transport and aiming it at Herrscher of the End.
*BANG!*
Hundreds of missiles quickly hurled towards the Herrscher of the End before exploding.
*BOOM!*
"That is useless." Mobius said.
"What do you mean?" Welt asked before knowing the answer. Under the thick dust was the Herrscher of the End who was completely unharmed, instead her blank eyes turned to look at him.
Welt instantly felt goosebumps crawling on his body, before he realized it the Herrscher of the End was already in front of him.
"How-"
Welt opened his mouth to say something, his eyes met the Herrscher of the End's hand, he could see it, but his mind could not.
His perception of time had changed. Something that was slow to him, felt very fast to him.
The feeling of death approached him the moment the Herrscher of the End's palm would touch his neck.
But right at that moment, Ashborn seemed to push him away letting him fall freely.
The wind roaring in his ears brought him back to his senses, Welt saw that everyone had jumped away from the Herrscher of the End.
He then took a deep breath before balancing himself in the air, he didn't realize that he was in a cold sweat.
On the ground, he approached Ashborn and asked breathlessly.
"What the hell was that! How can she suddenly be in front of me?"
Ashborn did not answer his question, his eyes still staring at the Herrscher of the End who had stopped moving.
"Our perception of time has changed." Ashborn said after making sure the Herrscher of the End wasn't chasing them.
Mobius then approached them, she looked at Welt before saying, "You're really lucky, if Ashborn hadn't pushed you, you'd be dead by now."
The authority of the Herrscher of the End was [Time], as the ruler of [Time] besides being able to speed up and slow down time, she can change people's perception of time.
For example, just like Welt earlier, his body knew that the Herrscher of the End's movements were slow, but his mind or perception didn't.
Those who had been affected by Herrscher of the End's aura would experience a change in their perception of time.
Fortunately, due to Fu Hua's attack, the Herrscher of the End's consciousness was currently in an injured state making it unresponsive.
Unless, if they attacked her directly like Welt, which would wake up the Herrscher of the End's passive reaction.
"Isn't that cheating?" Welt said after hearing Mobius' explanation.
The Herrscher of the End had the authority of [Time] and not only that, she could also use other authorities except the Authority of the Herrscher of Shadows and Herrscher of Human: Ego.
She was the true embodiment of the apostle Honkai.
Aponia, Siegfried, Griseo, Kosma and Otto who were carrying Fu Hua then approached the three of them.
"What should we do now?" Otto asked carefully. In the presence of the Herrscher of the End, any scheme he could think of wouldn't work on him.
He therefore gave up and let the more professional Mobius take over.
"Of course, we can't miss this opportunity." Mobius said, after which she said something towards her watch.
"Vill-V, activate Selene. "
Right after she said that, the space rumbled before bringing up a flying battleship above their heads.
"This is... the Moonlight Throne?" muttered Welt.
"The most annoying thing about the Herrscher of the End besides its abilities is its energy shield. That's why we have to destroy its energy shield first... Or at least reduce its durability." Mobius said.
The Herrscher of the End's energy shield was made directly from her Honkai energy which was close to infinite.
Selene/Moonlight Throne, a flying warship used to convert Honkai energy into ordinary energy such as electricity or heat.
Mobius remembered 50,000+ years ago, when Dr. MEI used Selene to reduce the resistance of Herrscher of the End's energy shield.
Unfortunately... Even after overloading Selene, Dr. MEI could only reduce about 30% of Herrscher of the End's Honkai energy before Selene was destroyed due to overload.
And in the current era, in anticipation of the Herrscher of the End returning, World Serpent rebuilt Selene.
...
Inside the Ark.
Billions of humans from different countries, races, and beliefs, stared at the interface screen in front of them that displayed the state of the world outside.
"The human race will definitely win!" someone said out loud as she stared at the real-time interface screen displaying Mobius and the others.
At first it was just that person, then ten people, a hundred people, and it kept growing.
Thousands, millions, even billions of humans chanted one sentence.
"Humanity will definitely win!"
"Humanity will definitely win!"
SAKURA's ears perked up, her empty eyes shining slightly.
Sakura who was watching the screen while tightly grasping the handle of her katana unconsciously turned to stare at SAKURA's place.
Only to realize that SAKURA, who was in the wheelchair, had disappeared.
...
Inside the Moonlight Throne
AI Vill-V was seen alone controlling Selene.
["Initiating Selene's converter system."]
["Target has been locked."]
["Initiating charge..."]
AI Vill-V stared at the Herrscher of the End from the interface screen.
"This time... I'll make sure you lose!"
["30%... 75%... 125%... 245%.. 300%! "]
["Fire!"]
*ZING!*
Selene's shot hit the Herrscher of the End decisively.
__
At the same time inside Sirin's [Imaginary Space].
Bella who was guarding the place where Kouro and his sword were sealed felt an earthquake, the space where she was now looked unstable.
Starting from Honkai metal and purple rocks were falling to the ground.
Bella's expression instantly changed seeing this as it signaled that Sirin was in a state of danger or unstable.
"My queen is in danger! I have to go help her!"
Bella, who wanted to leave then stopped, she looked back staring at the box where Kouro was sealed.
What should she do? If she left from here she would be disobeying Sirin's orders, but if she didn't leave immediately, Sirin's life would be in danger!
Bella saw the box visibly crack before it shattered, dropping the unconscious Kouro.
His katana also fell near his hand.
Kouro's badly injured body looks to be recovering.
Bella gave Kouro a long look before turning away and flapping her wings creating blue thunder.
Her Queen's life was more important than her mission.
She didn't care if she would be punished by Sirin later, the only thing on her mind was.
"I must help the Queen immediately!"
What Bella didn't notice was that Kouro's finger was visibly twitching.
The [Imaginary Space] collapsed further, the floor where Kouro was lying on his back began to collapse.

Hia katana then fell first into the boundless darkness followed by Kouro.
Kouro fell into the boundless darkness like Himeko in the game.
__
*ZING!*
Selene's barrel fired a bright light at the Herrscher of the End before it went down overloaded.
Fortunately, under Ai Vill-V Selene's control, it did not fall.
"Did we make it?" said Siegfried.
"... You just raised the flag." Welt said with a flat expression.
Right after he said that, a huge explosion rang in their ears from above.
*BOOM!*
"Oh! No, Selene was destroyed by the Herrscher of the End!" Mobius said with her expression turning shocked.
Selene was split in two and fell followed by a huge explosion.
Behind the dust was the Herrscher of the End floating in the air, her empty eyes having regained their radiance.
Her consciousness had been fully restored!
Even so, her Honkai energy had been reduced by more than 30% due to Selene's attack.
Her cold glowing eyes turned to look at Mobius and the others.
"Attack with everything you've got!" Mobius shouted with a surprised expression as she felt her gaze.
But... It was too late.
The Herrscher of the End suddenly appeared before Griseo and cut off both her hands before throwing her away using gravity.
"Griseo! You bastard! You-!"
Kosma, who wore an angry expression for the first time, seemed to undergo a transformation and was about to punch the Herrscher of the End.
But, he was slow, he was not fast enough to be noticed by her.
The Herrscher of the End directly stabbed Kosma's chest using her hand before squeezing his heart and throwing him away.
*BAM!*
She then licked her hand full of Kosma's blood before turning to look at Otto who was holding Fu Hua.
Just when she was about to attack again, a dark green liquid suddenly appeared under her feet and attacked her.
The Herrscher of the End wanted to move away only to realize her body was temporarily immobilized.
Aponia seemed to have used the [Discipline] ability to temporarily immobilize the Herrscher of the End's body.
"Otto! Quickly take Fu Hua away from here!" Ashborn shouted.
Otto unceremoniously left straight away, he used [Void Archives] and replicated [Fenghuang Down] to erase his presence, the fight was beyond him.
The Herrscher of the End raised her head as she felt the heat in front of her.
She saw Siegfried who had raised the Might of An-Utu that had been charged up.
Not only that, Mobius who had activated [Active Honkai Reaction] seemed to be enveloped in a dark green color before turning into some kind of giant dark green reptilian monster.
Mobius then immediately punched out with full force.
Ashborn was controlling his shadows and turned it into many needles.
Welt created a small black hole and aimed it at the Herrscher of the End.
Siegfried's sword slash was able to split the clouds in the sky like Saitama's serious fist.
Mobius' fist was so heavy that it made a supersonic impact.
Ashborn's shadowy needles seemed to penetrate the Herrscher of the End's energy shield.
The space around them rumbled due to the mini black holes created by the Welt.
All of these attacks directly hit the Herrscher of the End.
*BOOMMM!*
Siegfried who had used up all his strength instantly bent down, his body began to return to normal, he was panting, he was unable to move his body now.
"Did... We make it?" he muttered.
The thick dust in front of them then blew away revealing the Herrscher of the End who had no wounds at all.
"Damn it!" Siegfried said after seeing their efforts all in vain.
The Herrscher of the End suddenly appeared directly in front of him then stabbed his chest and squeezed his heart before flinging him away.
"Blurgh!" Siegfried vomited blood.
Welt, Ashborn, Aponia, Mobius, were helpless before the Herrscher of the End.
They all suffered fatal, disfiguring wounds.
The Herrscher of the End stood on the ground covered in blood, the bodies of Aponia, Mobius and the others were lying stiffly on the ground.
Their chests looked hollow, their hearts had been crushed.
Welt was lucky that his Herrscher core was not destroyed by the Herrscher of the End.
Although Welt himself did not know why.
The Herrscher of the End then raised her head to stare at where Cecilia and Theresa had gone.
Her body then suddenly disappeared creating only an afterimage because of how fast she left.
...
"Haah... Haah... Haah..." Cecilia and Theresa with Sirin were running as fast as they could.
They then stopped a few miles away and turned around.
"Have we come far?" asked Cecilia.
"I think so." Theresa replied, she really had amazing stamina, even after carrying the Oath of Judah and Sirin simultaneously she didn't look tired at all.
Cecilia looked at the unconscious Sirin before approaching her and healing her using the Abyss Flower.
Just as they rested for a moment, they then heard the sound of footsteps from behind them.
They both instantly turned their heads before their expressions changed and quickly set up a fighting stance.
In front of them at this moment was the Herrscher of the End who was walking towards them.
"How can she be here!" Theresa shouted with a trembling body.
"If she's here... That means... Siegfried and the others..." Cecilia muttered, gritting her teeth as tears fell from her eyes.
The Herrscher of the End stopped and looked at them, no, more like she looked at Sirin.
She pointed her hand at them before suddenly stopping.
*Swoosh!*
A super-fast slash that cut through the wind approached the Herrscher of the End.
*Ting!*
It was a pity that the unknown person's attack could not penetrate the Herrscher of the End's energy shield.
The Herrscher of the End glanced at the unknown attacker only to realize that it was SAKURA.
Just as Herrscher of the End was about to raise her hand and was about to stab SAKURA in the chest a railgun cannon suddenly struck her making her slightly off balance.
*BAM!*
SAKURA immediately jumped backwards towards Cecilia and Theresa, the three of them then raised their heads to see Bella.
"My queen!" shouted Bella seeing Sirin unconscious behind Cecilia and the others.
Although she didn't know what the situation was like, she sensed the killing intent of the Herrscher of the End was directed at Sirin and that was enough to explain to her who was the enemy and who was the Ally.
Bella immediately rushed to Sirin, "My Queen! Are you alright!"
Sirin's eyelashes visibly twitched before slowly opening her eyes.
"Bella?"
"My Queen!"
Sirin held her sore head before trying to stand up only to lose her balance, if it wasn't for Bella's help, she would've fallen down.
She was still semi-conscious.
Bella breathed a sigh of relief seeing that Sirin was fine, she then stood side by side together with Cecilia and the others staring at the Herrscher of the End.
"Hmph! No matter who you are! I'll make sure you regret hurting my queen!"
Herrscher of the End only stared at them with a cold expression before clicking her tongue.
Less than 10 minutes later.
Sirin's trembling eyes reflected the Herrscher of the End who was standing on the ground full of blood, Cecilia and the others were on the ground with hollowed chests.
...
The humanity in the ark saw the ferocity and cruelty of the Herrscher of the End, they felt desperate.
"Let go of me, Mophead! She killed the Welt! That damn Herrscher killed Welt! Welt!! Welt!!!"
Dr. Einstein was restraining the rebellious Tesla.
Tesla cried out Welt's name, again, again and again, before stopping with her head bowed down.
A single tear fell to the floor from Tesla's cheek.
...
The Herrscher of the End licked the blood on her hands before looking at Sirin.
"No! No! Don't come closer!"
Sirin tried to stand up but her legs felt mushy. She also tried to use her strength but could not.
The Herrscher of the End paid no heed to Sirin's cries, she approached her and grabbed her by the neck before lifting her up.
Sirin tried to break free, she kicked, punched, and bit, but all she got was a harder stranglehold.
Her consciousness was fading, memories of her time with Kouro and her mother in the illusionary world flashed through her mind.
"Sa... Ve... Me... Please... Kouro... "
Both of Sirin's hands holding the Herrscher of the End's hand seemed to weaken.
But right at that moment Sirin lost her life.
*Swoosh!*
Herrscher of the End blinked, Sirin in her hand had disappeared, she raised her head and looked to the side.
She looked up at a man in a silver hooded robe with a gray coat with red stripes.
"Sorry... I'm late..." the man said softly.
"But now everything will be fine. "
Sirin's eyes shook violently at the sight of the man's face, she unconsciously opened her mouth and shouted the man's name.
"Kouro!"
The man then stood up and turned to look at Herrscher of the End with his eyes that had the sheen of prisms.
"Why? Because I'm here."
