"Although I had guessed you would give her the power of the Stigmata, I didn't expect you to do it so readily."
After Tachibana Koneko left, Herrscher Tsukiyo appeared in the living room, somewhat surprised by Inaba Tsukiyo giving Tachibana Koneko the Stigmata.
"You should know that the Stigmata is a power I've only just mastered. Even I can't guarantee it can be transplanted into a human. Is what you're doing really okay?"
Giving Tachibana Koneko a power she hadn't even mastered so easily, wasn't she worried about major problems arising?
Even if Tachibana Koneko was a Devil, doing this seemed a bit too reckless.
"You also said you had no experience transplanting it into humans, but Tachibana Koneko is a Devil. Devils are much stronger than humans, and I believe Tachibana Koneko can withstand all of this."
Inaba Tsukiyo smiled. Regarding her giving the power of the Stigmata to Tachibana Koneko, she actually had her own considerations.
This power was awakened by Herrscher Tsukiyo a while ago. Because she felt it wasn't of much use, she handed over the relevant knowledge and the method of imparting Stigmata to Inaba Tsukiyo.
Tachibana Koneko was the first person to possess a Stigmata. Although she didn't know if the power of the Stigmata would be compatible with her, Inaba Tsukiyo believed Tachibana Koneko would definitely be able to do it.
"But I've always wondered, why do you have the ability to bestow Stigmata upon others? Aren't you the will of honkai? What you should be able to bestow is the power of a Herrscher, right? Moreover, Stigmata are used to fight against Honkai."
She remembered that Stigmata were created by Dr. MEI of the previous era, who transcribed her lifelong research into the genetic catalog of humans.
When these invisible genetic factors expressed themselves in the next generation of humans, what was known as Stigmata would appear.
It's just… why would Herrscher Tsukiyo, as the will of honkai, awaken this ability? If she could not only create Herrschers but also bestow Stigmata upon others, then was there still hope for the world?
"I don't know either, but what's wrong with that? Anyway, this ability won't be used in that world, and it's already considered your power."
Herrscher Tsukiyo didn't want to explain this question. This ability was born under unknown conditions when she fused with Inaba Tsukiyo's magic power.
This ability was born with Inaba Tsukiyo's help, but as the will of that world, she possessed all the memories of that world, which is why she had the ability to create Stigmata based on the experiences of those warriors who fought against Honkai throughout their lives.
'Indeed… this idiot still hasn't realized what kind of existence she truly is. At most, her physical body is still human, but her soul's mysteriousness is completely beyond what a human should possess.'
If Inaba Tsukiyo's soul's mysteriousness was only at a human level, then Herrscher Tsukiyo could have taken Inaba Tsukiyo's soul without doing anything.
But this didn't happen, which indicated that the mysteriousness of Inaba Tsukiyo's soul was extremely high, at least higher than that of her, the will of honkai.
That's why Herrscher Tsukiyo could share this ability with Inaba Tsukiyo. To activate this condition, she, as the will of honkai, had to provide the information for the Stigmata, and then through Inaba Tsukiyo, gain the authority to bestow the Stigmata upon others.
After all, every world has a different system, and if not for the world's consciousness allowing it, the residents of that world would not be permitted to possess powers exceeding that world's limits.
"Forget it, since you don't know, I won't ask anymore. But there's one thing I've always wanted to know: why are the vast majority of warriors fighting against Honkai in the Honkai World girls?"
This was something Inaba Tsukiyo had always wanted to know. Ever since she read about the famous figures who fought against Honkai in her textbooks at St. Freya Academy, she had been very curious about this.
Historically, those figures had almost all become girls, and even the famous scientists had turned into girls, with most of them also being from Anti-Entropy.
(fuhai: The most profound impression left on me, besides Einstein and Tesla, was the cat-abuser Schrödinger.)
"The Stigmata I gave Tachibana Koneko this time was Li Shuwen's, but then I learned from you that she is a girl. This is truly…"
Although Li Shuwen was recorded in Alaya's Throne of Heroes and had experience fighting with a spear, Inaba Tsukiyo was interested in Li Shuwen's boxing techniques, which is why she implanted Li Shuwen's Stigmata into Tachibana Koneko.
She just didn't expect that the Li Shuwen of the Honkai World was also a girl, and one with a bright red ponytail, wearing a cheongsam, at that. This is truly… (fuhai: You can imagine Ning Hai and Ping Hai from Azur Lane.)
"Who knows? They existed as girls in my world. Knowing about parallel world theory, and even the appearance of a female King Arthur, why would you ask such a question?"
Due to the theory of parallel worlds, different people appear with different genders in different worlds.
The Honkai World is simply because Honkai adaptability only exists in the vast majority of females, and there's nothing that can be done about that.
(fuhai: This is just the scriptwriter's arrangement. To bait players into spending, even gods can be gender-bent.)
"It's just… I just couldn't help but want to complain. Forget it, it's just grumbling anyway. It's the world's problem, and it has nothing to do with me."
Helpless, Inaba Tsukiyo could only accept this arrangement.
Since Tachibana Koneko wasn't home today, Inaba Tsukiyo didn't plan to play for too long. She tidied up and prepared to go to sleep.
On the other side, when Tachibana Koneko rushed to the Occult Research Club, Rias, along with Himejima Akeno and another handsome man, had already been waiting for a long time.
"Sorry to keep you waiting, President. I've taken care of everything, let's go."
"It's been almost an hour. Just telling someone you won't be coming tonight shouldn't take this long, right, Koneko?"
Himejima Akeno approached Tachibana Koneko with a gentle smile and asked.
Although Rias had given Tachibana Koneko an hour, with Tachibana Koneko's speed, just saying a few words shouldn't take much time at all.
But Tachibana Koneko actually took nearly an hour to return, which made Himejima Akeno a little curious about what Tachibana Koneko had done at that person's house.
"Nothing, just had dinner. Only by filling my stomach can I act properly."
Tachibana Koneko didn't catch Himejima Akeno's hidden meaning. She patted her tummy and made a strong pose, saying.
Tachibana Koneko's explanation made the smile on Himejima Akeno's face grow even wider. Filled her stomach? Hehehe~
