Making Honkai III, Sword Crying Valkyrie

Can't hear anything?

Looking at Ying who was holding Ling's body in the room and fell into a daze and despair, Xi'er remembered what Sakura had said to herself before.

No matter what, I don't want to lose...

Protect at all costs...

This is... sister and sister...

For Sakura, her younger sister Ling is the only sustenance in her life at this time... But now, the person she wanted to protect no matter what, at all costs, died like this...

For Sakura, losing her last family member and witnessing the tragic death of her sister, for Sakura...

How desperate is it...

"..."

Xi'er could understand the pain in Sakura's heart.

"Sister Sakura, she...needs a little time."

Even so, Xier didn't want to just leave Sakura behind.

Although Xier had been in this world for a few hours.But the indifferent Sakura in front of her, but her heart is extremely gentle, has taught Xier a lot of truths.

Moreover, when Xi'er's stigmata broke out, Sakura did not give up on Xi'er.

So now, Xier couldn't give up on Sakura anymore.

Standing alone in front of the door, Xier tightly held the sickle in her hand, ready to block the incoming dead soldiers alone.

However, when Xi'er had just participated in the battle, a burst of flames struck, and in just an instant, all the attacking soldiers were burned up.

"Eh……"

Seeing that all the dead soldiers in front of her were reduced to ashes in the crimson flames, Xi'er couldn't help being stunned.

And when the flames slowly dissipated, Xier saw a white-haired man standing in the middle of the flame storm that had just swept through.

That is, Kevin who stopped Sakura just now but stopped chasing because of Herrscher's appearance.

And now, this man reappeared in front of Xi'er.

"..."

Kevin silently glanced at Xier who was standing still.

Just a glance made Xi'er instinctively shudder.

However, fortunately for Xier, Kevin didn't seem to have the idea of ​​attacking her. He just glanced at Xier lightly, then put away the big sword that was just blazing in his hand, and walked behind Xier.

Then, I saw Sakura who was in a daze.

"cherry……"

Seeing the scene in the confinement room, Kevin was silent for a moment, and then slowly called Sakura's name.

However, Kevin's call was not answered.

Seeing Sakura hugging her dead sister, as if she and her sister died together.

Kevin watched silently.

He wanted to say something, but in the end, Kevin just closed his eyes and shook his head slowly.

Kevin didn't say anything, but under Xier's vigilant gaze, Kevin switched on the communication device.

"Mei... this is Kevin, the dead men on the 33rd floor underground have been cleaned up."

"Thanks for your hard work, the dead soldiers on other floors have also been eliminated. By the way, how does the Herrscher himself react?"

Staring at the gradually icy girl in Sakura's arms, Kevin closed his eyes.

"...no abnormality."

"It is not yet certain that the crisis is resolved. Continue to observe, and support will arrive soon."

"receive."

Listening to the exchange between Kevin and Dr. Mei in the communication channel, although she didn't know what happened, Xier still instinctively stood in front of Kevin.

"You... what are you going to do? Don't hurt Sister Sakura!"

"She just wanted to keep

Protect my sister, her sister is innocent! "

Xi'er couldn't understand why these people wanted to hurt Sakura's younger sister, to kill this innocent girl so cruelly.

Even now, Ling's dead body is still under surveillance.

"The No.12 Herrscher's ability released a large amount of heart-corroding virus that can spread through the air at the moment of death."

"Unbeknownst to us, the soldiers in the base executed her arbitrarily, which awakened the Herrscher."

"This deadly crisis is caused by her."

"Sakura is wrong, Ling is indeed a genuine Herrscher, and she needs to be responsible for her invasion of the base."

Kevin told the truth indifferently.But for this truth, Xier couldn't understand why it was the fault of Sakura and her younger sister Ling.

If the soldiers in the base hadn't executed Ling without authorization, how could this tragedy have happened?

As for Seele's rebuttal, Kevin's answer is very simple.

"Without these soldiers, Ling will fall into despair for other reasons."

"And from the moment Ling is chosen to be the Herrscher, these things will inevitably happen, and her ending is already doomed."

"This is the collapse..."

If you are chosen to be a Herrscher, then a Herrscher will be born.

This is just a matter of time, and it is not something that can be avoided by simple prevention.

The birth of the Herrscher is irreversible.

And this...is the so-called collapse.

This is the most real cruelty in this world.

Kevin's eyes were fierce, and blood seemed to flow from his clenched fists.

Seele could feel it.

When Kevin said this fact, the anger and pain that was about to spew out from the bottom of his heart.

Obviously, Kevin who was able to draw such a conclusion must have experienced similar things, or witnessed...an irreversible cruel tragedy.

And just as Kevin and Seele were confronting each other, Dr. May's communication rang again.

In this communication, Dr. Mei, whose tone had been calm before, became anxious.

Under the notice of Dr. Mei, Kevin heard the unacceptable facts.

That is...the No.12 Herrscher who just "died" has not died yet.

The essence of No.12 Herrscher is erosion. It is only a basic ability to erode human beings to turn them into dead soldiers. What is truly terrifying is that she can erode the electronic systems in the base.

And at just a moment, most of the control systems in the base have been controlled by the Corrosion Herrscher, and then... the Corrosion Herrscher seems to be eroding the nuclear bomb launch program...

And if the nuclear bomb well is corroded by the Herrscher...

However, before Mei finished speaking, the communication channel was cut off.

Obviously, the communication system has also been eroded by the Herrscher.

At this time, the gates of the surrounding passages also began to close one after another.

The Herrscher is not dead yet, Kevin who realizes this is going to leave here to find and solve the awakened Herrscher,

But when Xi'er was telling Xi'er to take good care of Sakura, Sakura, who had closed her heart, suddenly spoke.

"Ling... still alive?"

Sakura stood up unsteadily.

"where is she?"

"Sakura, what are you doing?"

"I'm going to find her."

Kevin couldn't agree with Sakura's thoughts, after all... Now Ling has completely become a Herrscher.

And to go to find the Corruptor is to seek death.

Even Xi'er, who understood the seriousness of the matter, spoke out to dissuade her.

But for Kevin's warning and Seele's persuasion.Sakura just shook her head.

"It's because it's dangerous. I'm going to find her..."

"Because Ling must be very lonely now...and she has always been a child who is afraid of loneliness."

Sakura's voice softened.

"I know, she..."

"need me……"

Xier also fell silent.

She knew that if Sakura went to look for her sister, then... Sakura would be doomed to die.

But... Xier couldn't say anything to stop Sakura from going to find Ling.Because... this is the most selfless love my sister has for her sister. Xi'er can't deny it, nor can she deny it...

"Stop joking, Ling is dead!"

Kevin looked very angry.

"What you are going to find now is the Herrscher, you will die!"

"..."

Sakura shook her head, and slowly pulled out the blade at her waist.

Then--

With Sakura's wave, time and space froze in an instant.The thinking of everyone present was also stagnant, and only Sakura was able to move in the entire space.

As time passed, Sakura quickly passed Kevin and Xier, and flew forward.

And when passing Xier, Sakura left her blessing.

"I wish...you can meet your sister again."

-

When the time returned to normal, Xier recovered and found that Sakura's figure had disappeared.

Subconsciously, Xier wanted to find Sakura, but Kevin, who looked lost, stopped Xier from doing so.

"no need……"

"It's... that's no longer necessary."

The communication was restored after a few minutes, and soon Dr. Mei connected to Kevin's communication channel.

In Dr. Mei's joyful words, Xier and Kevin learned that the Herrscher had been defeated and controlled, and began to move into the black box.

But for Mei Xinxi's voice, Kevin's expression became more...sad.

"Sorry, May, give me a moment... I still have some things to deal with."

After turning off the communication, Kevin walked forward with Xier.

And then... I found Sakura, leaning against the wall, her eyes dull, one hand resting on the blade, with blood spilling from the corner of her mouth, at the last moment of death.

"..."

"Kevin... is there Xier..."

On the verge of death, the girl's affection became extremely calm.

She lowered her head to look at the pendant with her sister's photo.However, she found that the pendant, which she regarded as the most precious, had already been broken and withered just like her.
