Inside Adam's office, in the heart of Rose Redemption, five figures were comfortably seated on plush couches, while Adam himself presided from behind his ornate desk. The room was a blend of advanced technology and classic design, with holographic displays juxtaposed against antique bookshelves.
"So, what's the deal today? Why do I even need to be here, considering I'm not even a transmigrator or reincarnator like all of you?" The question was laced with annoyance, delivered by a man with messy gray hair with singed ends. Rather than seeing his face, we see his mask. It is black and gold, with a shape resembling that of a Chariot's face. He seemed to constantly have fire around him when in battle and held canisters at his side. This was Kalpas, the volatile powerhouse of the group.
His outfit was chaotic and didn't have a consistent pattern to it. His left arm had a glove that extends into a gauntlet. The right was without a glove, opting for a cape that extends from his upper arm. He has huge spikes at his right shoulder as well. He wore a black shirt with white accents. His pants are also black. There are belts in various places: like his back, his pants, and his arms. One of these belts holds a few bullets.
"It's because today's meeting concerns you, Kalpas," a slender young man said, his voice smooth and melodic. Sunless, as he was known, was sitting on the couch in a relaxed pose, wearing a simple black tunic. The young man had skin as pale as flawless white jade, silky black hair, and eyes that were like two onyx gems. His delicate beauty was almost sublime.
"Sunless was right, Kalpas. Considering that you are the one who almost killed the experimental vipralopa-class honkai beast in the previous era and the one who killed it just last week, we need your take on it," the lady who said that calmly explained the reason to Kalpas, who just sighed and let go of the matter. Her voice was soothing, yet carried an undercurrent of authority.
She was an extraordinary female figure clad in a layered but unadorned black gown, with an iron crown upon Her head and a thin veil covering Her face, rendering Her features indistinct yet imbued with a tranquil beauty. Her body was studded with points of starlight. Pale wings sprouted from Her back, while two short, darkly furred arms each extended from under Her ribs and armpits, clutching a dusk-orange greatsword and a black, night-like scythe. Her exposed forearms and hands appeared like sculpted jade, cradling an illusory book formed of coiled feathered serpents. This was Aminises, the ancient scholar and strategist.
"So may we start the meeting? Me and Adam here are just waiting for your confirmations," another man said calmly. His face is that of ordinary looking man with brown hair, He is cloaked in a black trench coat, wears a pair of dark leather gloves, and holds a star-encrusted cane, while being surrounded by grayish-white fog. This was Klein Moretti, the enigmatic manipulator.
"Start it immediately! I'm getting bored here, ya know," a man said calmly, dressed in black armor that seemed to be splashed with blood. He had red hair that resembled fire, looking young and handsome. This was Medici, the impulsive warrior.
"As Medici said, let's start now, shall we. First things first, is that the experimental vipralopa-class has the ability of elemental manipulation and insane regeneration. It's durability is roughly as hard as that of an emperor class, but it mostly doesn't matter when its sheer regeneration is god-like," said a man who wore a simple white cloak and wore a silver cross, eyes as clear as a child's, and beneath His feet was a dense shadow, different from Him, with five heads. It seemed to be His, yet not His. This was Adam, the enigmatic leader.
"Adam's right, Azathoth had those abilities, though the fact that I managed to one-shot it now is a testament to the sheer fact that it was weakened due to Dino's attack," Kalpas pointed out, acknowledging the contribution of the younger generation.
"Your students are truly interesting, Adam. Even with the fact that their strength is mostly buffed by the honkai genes you gave them aside from your two first students they are by far stronger than any fighters we currently have excluding the executives like nephis, Chen Tianwu, and more," Aminises complimented Adam, who just smiled, while Sunless just sighed and annoyingly said.
"Still hated the fact that you named that white-haired girl, Nephis. The only similarities they had is the appearance anyways, their mindset, personalities, and experience are vastly different," Sunless said.
"Blame Klein for it he had the idea of naming the girl Nephis and be at least happy that the girl is slowly gaining strength by training!" Medici laughingly shouted as he stood up to go to the refrigerator to get some food.
"Back to the talk, Adam, I have a question," Klein said as he leaned forward on his cane and said.
"What is the name of the honkai beasts and their abilities and where did you get them?" Klein questioned, to which Adam just smiled and said.
"Let's start one by one, shall we. First is Dino's honkai beast, Janus that judgement-class honkai beast had the abilities to split itself to two and predict the future and read the past. Second is Shane's honkai beast, Lupercus that emperor-class honkai beast had no special ability except the fact that it's stronger than a normal emperor-class honkai beast physically. Next is Mammon's honkai beast, Vritra now that I think about it that name is bad but oh well that emperor-class honkai beast had the ability to breathe poison and swallow nearly everything. Next is Flores' honkai beast, Sesa need I even explain it? It's the honkai beast of the flame chasers of infinity our head scientist Mobius it had manifested in the third eruption but quickly hide away when it sensed my aura unluckily to it I manage to detect it. Next one is Pandora's honkai beast, Nyarlathotep it had the ability to spread corruption to nearly everything but at the price of its physical strength and mind awareness. I got them while I was travelling the tree of existence using my avatars alongside our honkai beasts," Adam calmly explained to them one by one slowly to let them understand what he meant.
"What a huge info dump, Adam, truly huge! So you got the thirteen I meant twelve honkai beast genes by sending avatars to other leaf of the tree of existence? Your uniqueness is truly a cheat," Medici sat back on the coach, eating a sandwich that was sitting at the refrigerator earlier.
After that, they all talked about what was happening around them and about the branches of Rose Redemption they ruled over. The conversation flowed easily, a mix of strategic planning and casual banter.
"So, Adam, about Testarossa..." Klein said, breaking the easy atmosphere.
Adam sighed, "Yes, I know. She wants to meet. I'm going to meet her in 2 days"
"So you are finally going to meet her huh, what are you going to say to her?" Kalpas asked.
"I don't know, but I have a feeling that this is going to be a very long conversation" Adam replied.
Kalpas was silent before saying "Good luck then, you are going to need it"
Adam nodded as he looked at the holographic display, his expression unreadable. The meeting was over, but the real challenge was just beginning.
--------------------------------------------------------
At the clinic of the main base of Rose Redemption, Dino was sitting on the bed calmly talking to himself as if talking to someone else. He was troubled, his mind racing with questions.
"Hey, Testarossa, you still awake?" Dino asked.
'Why do you even need to wake me up? I'm literally almost asleep, what is it, Dino?' came a women voice from his mind whom only Dino could hear. She was always so sarcastic.
"I have never asked you this, but you're a transmigrator, correct?" Dino asked as he stretches his arms sideways.
'Yeah, how many times did I say to you that I was a transmigrator, and yet you still don't remember?' Testarossa annoyingly said as she took control of Dino's body and let him fall asleep, finally being able to talk to Dino in his mind.
What came into Dino's view as he woke up in his mind was an alluring lady with waist-long white hair and crimson red eyes. She wore a formal attire that is a teal-colored dress. Dino was stunned due to how beautiful the women in front of him was and add the fact that this is only the second time they met face to face the first time was when he was a child and that was already fifteen years ago. He was speechless.
"What? Flabbergasted due to my demonic beauty?" Saying it in a teasing tone Testarossa teleported Infront of Dino and took hold of his chin and made him look at her smiling face.
Snapping out of it, Dino sighed to himself and stutteringly said, "N-no, I was just shocked that you suddenly forced us to meet each other again when the last time we met face to face was fifteen years ago." He was still trying to process everything.
The talk of Testarossa and Dino had just begun.
