Kiana entered the Ultra Instinct state once again.
Only this time, it was no longer a pseudo-perfection, but a true entry into the realm of Perfect Ultra Instinct.
Under Kiana's control, the scorching aura gradually contracted.
Under the suppression of this power, the Honkai Energy was sealed within the Core of the Herrscher of Finality.
Furthermore, the Divine Breath seemed to gradually begin transforming the Honkai Energy, or perhaps the two were intersecting, slowly producing a brand-new power?
"Phew..."
After using the Divine Breath to seal the Honkai Energy leakage, Kiana breathed a sigh of relief.
This way, she didn't have to worry about being locked away on the moon.
And so, Kiana returned to Schicksal, carrying a certain 'Prometheus Duck' in her hand.
Senti, who was about to wake up, was still there.
"Yo, Little Martial Aunt, this outfit of yours looks quite nice!"
Li Sushang circled around Kiana, sizing her up with eyes full of curiosity, then patted Kiana's shoulder and praised her.
No. 17 took the opportunity to break free from Kiana's control, silently floating to a corner, looking at Kiana with a faint red light flashing in her eyes.
"Kiana, you're back...???"
Bianca spoke subconsciously upon seeing Kiana's figure, then belatedly widened her eyes as she took in Kiana's brand-new appearance.
She had only been out for a short while, right? How did such a massive change happen?!
And looking at the situation, the abnormal spike in Honkai Energy concentration on Earth, followed by its abnormal plunge—it must have all been Kiana's doing!
At that time, the sky across the entire globe had turned purple, and everyone thought the end of the world was coming.
Schicksal, Anti-Entropy, and the hidden World Serpent were all frazzled by the abnormal spike in Honkai Energy.
Especially World Serpent; after Gray Serpent informed the Sovereign of the current situation, the other party actually remained silent, clearly not expecting this either.
But soon, the Honkai Energy plummeted again, and even the Great Eruptions that were about to occur all over the world were stifled back.
Regarding this, a look of clear bewilderment appeared on the cold face of Kevin, who was in the Sea of Quanta.
Not just him, Su, who was observing other parallel worlds and executing Project Valuka, also felt this anomaly and suddenly opened his eyes to look at the sky.
Leaning against the great tree, Su seemed to be looking through the sky at a certain world.
Within the Elysian Realm, a certain Pink Fairy Lady seemed to feel something; her eyes trembled slightly as she looked toward the entrance of the Elysian Realm.
At St. Freya Academy, Otto, who was looking at Yae Sakura with gritted teeth, paused, then looked at the dissipating purple sky with a thoughtful expression.
At her chest, Void Archives slowly condensed, taking on the form of a Mini Otto, looking at the sky in utter dismay.
"That's right... it's the Herrscher of Finality, she has descended..."
It was the first time Otto had seen Void Archives so panicked, so she curled her lips and began to appreciate the sight.
Even Yae Sakura, who was beside her competing for Kallen, was momentarily ignored.
"No, Finality has indeed descended, but why is the Honkai Energy continuously decaying?!"
No matter how Void Archives calculated, he couldn't figure out why.
"Currently, besides little Kiana—the General—there is likely no one else on this Earth with such capability, right?"
Otto didn't even need complex calculations to guess the culprit; this was why she could always suppress Void Archives.
"You mean, that test subject you created, she did it!"
Void Archives suddenly turned his head, staring intently into Otto's eyes, speaking one word at a time.
There was an excitement in his tone that even he didn't notice.
"From the looks of it, she indeed did it,"
Otto chuckled, watching the blue sky reveal itself once again.
She really hadn't expected that the disaster of the Honkai would end so abruptly.
Everything felt like a fleeting dream.
Whether it was 500 years ago or everything experienced now.
Otto looked at Kallen, who was interacting with Yae Sakura, and revealed a gentle smile.
Void Archives looked toward the floating islands of Schicksal, his eyes flickering.
His core code was to end the Honkai.
Now, the disaster brought by the Honkai had indeed concluded.
But the Honkai Energy hadn't been completely eradicated... At this moment, no one knew what Void Archives was thinking... Bang—!
Suddenly, a loud noise came from Otto's hidden laboratory.
A fist punched through the inside of the medical pod; the force was so great that the entire door was embedded into the wall.
"Hiss, that was a really comfortable sleep!"
'Fu Hua' stepped out of the medical pod, stretching her limbs, her tone very lively and flamboyant.
"Eh? Kiana, why has your appearance changed like this?"
Noticing Kiana, 'Fu Hua'—or rather, Senti—walked over to Kiana's side, pinching her chin and frowning as she sized the other up.
"I just became the Herrscher of Finality, so I turned into this look, Senti."
"Why are you calling me Senti? Don't you usually call me A Hua! Just keep calling me that, I like hearing it!"
Senti crossed her arms and spoke with a slightly arrogant tilt of her head.
Kiana's brow twitched slightly. Looking at Senti's cocky attitude, she felt the other was asking for a lesson.
Even though she had all of A Hua's memories, how did she not know how strong I am? She's still so boisterous!
"..."
At this moment, Fu Hua's consciousness appeared between them. Looking at the bratty Senti, she couldn't help but sigh.
How did inheriting fifty thousand years of her memories result in this kind of behavior... "Hmm? Which Fenghuang Down feather of mine did you split off from!"
Saying that, Senti reached out to grab Fu Hua, wanting to pull her back in.
Li Sushang frowned and took a step forward to stop Senti... but Kiana was one step ahead and grabbed Senti's wrist.
"Herrscher of Sentience, stop deceiving yourself. Deep down, you should know you aren't A Hua..."
"What are you talking about! Kiana, I am your A Hua! Look at this face, it's the real deal!"
Senti looked at Kiana with a face full of astonishment, then pointed at her own face and shouted.
After speaking, Senti looked at Li Sushang again.
"Sushang, you should recognize your Great Grandmaster, right! We even fought twice 500 years ago!"
"I'm sorry... you indeed are not my Great Grandmaster,"
Li Sushang shook her head and responded seriously.
Although she somewhat liked this Great Grandmaster who was full of human touch, facts were facts.
"Senti, I am the Herrscher of Finality. Your herrscher core should be able to feel my aura. Just feel it and you'll know if I'm lying to you..."
Seeing that Senti still intended to play dumb, Kiana crossed her arms and helplessly spread one hand out, speaking to her earnestly.
Senti's expression froze for a moment upon hearing this, then she pulled back her smile and glared with her large crimson eyes, preparing to use force to make Kiana and the others admit it.
However, since most of the Earth's Honkai Energy had been reclaimed by Kiana, what Senti could mobilize was very limited.
The consciousness clearance she had just used was casually dispersed by Kiana.
After neutralizing Senti's move, Kiana crossed her arms, looking at Senti with a cunning smile on her lips.
Kiana's expression was as if she were telling Senti: go on, keep performing, I'm watching~
This scene made Senti grit her teeth in anger.
Just as Senti was about to use her physical strength, Kiana suddenly spoke.
"Senti, you were just born. You've only obtained a large amount of A Hua's memories, but you are not her."
