Wilson Schariac.
Thea knows this girl.
Under the guidance of Otto's divine light for 500 years, both Kaslana's descendants and Schariac's descendants were almost wiped out in this era.
As the leader of the Schariac family, of course Thea had to know all of her mother's lineage.
Wilson identity was almost exactly the same as Maria, they both had Schariac ancestors, and had undergone a [purification] ceremony to enhance their bloodline.
In simple terms, the [purification] ceremony is the injection of [sacred blood] into the blood vessels.
After all, Schariac's ancestors were also born like this.
Although their status was not as high as that of Anna who was a pure-blood noble, the two of them were still the Schariac family in blood relationship.
"Wilson, I have heard of your name. You have succeeded in killing an emperor class Honkai beast alone in Verona. Congratulations on graduating to become an S-rank valkyrie, in the future Schicksal will need your help."
"No, it was all just a coincidence. My squad mates also contributed to the ambush that day, I really don't deserve this honor." Wilson scratched the back of her head embarrassedly.
Maria looked at her angrily: "So you mean my judgment was wrong? You think I gave you a backdoor?"
As the proctor of the S-rank valkyrie exam, Wilson's humility had really offended Maria.
"N-No, that's not what I meant!"
"So what?"
Seeing Maria and Wilson joking with each other, Thea smiled gently.
It had been a long time since she saw Maria smile so innocently.
Let's free her for today.
"Are you guys going to the weapons research department to get the new battlesuits?"
"Yes, we want to update Wilson's weapons and battlesuit. Maybe that will take a while."
"It's okay, you can take your time slowly with her. I'll take care of the rest."
"T-Thank you Saintess Thea!"
Talking for a while and making sure everything was okay, Thea immediately left.
Maria smiled very sweetly along the way. You can't imagine how a hard worker would feel suddenly getting a whole day off for free.
Wilson looked at her cousin curiously.
"Neh, sister Mary, I've heard rumors that Saintess Thea's current health condition is not very good, is that true?"
"Where did you hear these rumors?"
The smile on Maria's face faded.
"From the Internet."
"Don't talk carelessly, Saintess Thea is really fine right now. Wasn't she chatting with us before?"
Wilson narrowed her eyes, and she remembered that the hair on Thea's back was pure white.
All the valkyries in Schicksal knew that Thea had two twin sisters who had the exact same body shape and face.
But even so, their differences can be seen very clearly from their attitudes, the color of their eyes, or the color of the ends of their hair.
Even though that woman really had the regal bearing of Saintess Thea, the white tips of her hair really made her suspicious.
This must be a diversion.
If you think about it carefully, Saintess Thea, who is the leader of Schicksal, suddenly fell ill and couldn't stand in her wheelchair, which was indeed not good enough news.
Everyone can bend, but not a leader's spine.
"By the way, I've been wanting to ask you this for a long time. Sorry if I'm rude, but isn't Wilson a guy's name?"
Maria asked carefully.
"Ah, you asked about my name? It's okay, I'm used to it."
Wilson smiled proudly.
"Actually, this all started with my father expecting me to be as strong as a man."
"But aren't you a woman?"
"Yep, and I will show him that I will be stronger than the man he imagined."
"You have good spirits."
"That's my advantage."
Talk at length like close friends. They arrived at the weapons development department, and Maria accompanied Wilson in testing her new battlesuit system.
This is the right of an S-rank valkyrie.
Carry out the final check, namely fighting one on one in the memorial arena. The time they spent passed quickly.
The sun had already set into the vast ocean, and when they came out, the winter temperature was starting to hit their faces.
"It seems like it's getting late, sister Mary, thank you for accompanying me all day."
Maria waved her hand with a small smile.
"Don't be so polite, I also enjoyed the time I spent with you. It's been a long time since I relaxed like this."
"Tomorrow night after I finish work will you come with me for dinner? I'll treat you!"
"Really? Then it's a promise!"
"Hm, don't worry, I won't forget."
Parted at the end of the street, and waved her hand to return to the dormitory. The smile on Wilson's face slowly began to fade.
Taking advantage that her battlesuit was currently still in the customization stage, Wilson strolled around Schicksal's base to check strategic locations, and she also brushed up on her liking for Maria.
Maybe because they were both people recruited from outside by the Schariac family, making their relationship very close. However, Wilson would not waste this golden opportunity to make friends.
After a long period of polishing, all she needed now was to wait.
She was waiting for the opportunity to arrive.
____
December passed quietly, and in January the beginning of the new year began to bloom on the peaks of the snowy mountains.
For less than a month, even though Schicksal was still busy, somehow Thea was able to find peace in the midst of it.
The Honkai beasts that were rampant around the coast began to be pushed back by Schicksal's valkyrie troops, and this caused Schicksal's reputation in the eyes of the public to begin to improve.
As a result, the wave of valkyrie recruitment is surging.
This made Schicksal, who was short of manpower, finally heave a sigh of relief.
Of course, as long as there is good news, there will also be bad news.
Honkai impacts around the world are starting to appear more frequently.
The annoying thing about this disaster is that it can appear anywhere. Whether inland or in the middle of a busy city.
The anti-honkai reactor installed in the middle of the city is indeed good enough to dispel most of the existing honkai impacts. But this still makes Thea worried.
"These days the shape of the Honkai beasts is starting to get weirder. This bird monster really emits acid!"
"[Wouldn't it be better if you wiped it out quickly?]"
With the appearance of the Key of Radiance, the flame sword soared into the sky, and the emperor class Honkai beast, was instantly roasted to ashes.
There are no leftovers.
Kiana's fire sword grew hotter after receiving the light cone's baptism in the stigmata room.
Moreover, This was the third emperor class Honkai beast she had killed. Honkai beasts that previously had to be subdued with sacrifices as large as an A-rank valkyrie army, have now begun to appear more frequently in recent days.
Kiana, who was on a mission to escort food supplies in the east-west region, gave the okay sign, indicating that the road had been cleared.
The trucks with the Schicksal logo started to light up again, and the journey that was hampered by the appearance of the Honkai beast started to run again.
Kiana raised her head to look at the dark clouds that would soon rain.
"Sis, I have a bad feeling."
"[No need to predict, I already know.]"
Thea took a deep breath.
"[The new Herrscher will arrive soon.]"
Honkai impact's increasingly frequent appearance is a sign that a new Herrscher will soon arrive.
Currently, 8 Herrschers have appeared according to previous civilization records. Sirin returning from the moon has greatly contributed to the free disposal of Will of Honkai resources.
The Gem of Conquest is now in Mei's body, turning her into a Herrscher of Thunder.
The Gem of Desire, and the core of Herrscher of Rock, are still closely guarded within the Schicksal headquarters with the cooperation of Anti-Entropy.
The Gem of Haste, which was transformed into the Key of Radiance, also now coexists with the Herrscher of Void core in Kiana's body.
The Herrscher of Reason core is no longer useful after Bronya becomes the Herrscher of Truth, this core only exists as a display.
Apart from the Gem of Serenity which is the precursor to the Herrscher of Death which has now been stolen by Otto, all the Herrschers are already under Thea's supervision.
If the Herrscher that is born still has the same order as the previous era, then Thea can guess what kind of Herrscher will emerge.
Using the reference of the Herrscher of Domination, the tenth Herrscher, as the final point, there will be two Herrschers that have not appeared until now.
The fifth Herrscher, Herrscher of Ice.
The eighth Herrscher, Herrscher of Sentience.
They are both Herrschers who will most likely appear later.
And if the honkai urine is still the same as before, then the Herrscher that will be born will appear in the same person.
Ana and Fu Hua have been notified and they will undergo separate isolation on a remote island in Southeast Asia with tight security.
The Herrscher of Ice's ability is fine in terms of strength, but the Herrscher of Sentience's ability which can change memories, and can spread through information channels, really has to be watched out for.
As insurance, Thea deployed Kiana as Anna's bodyguard, and Bianka as Fu Hua's bodyguard.
These two her sisters have Schariac blood in their bodies which can automatically negate the honkai energy, the [Herrscher killer] in Otto's terms.
Apart from that, if an emergency situation arises suddenly, the fast-moving tactical squad led by Aurora can arrive at the scene immediately.
"Without electronics, without the internet, this reminds me of when I was still living on the top of Taixuan Mountain, it was very peaceful and serene."
"If I'm not mistaken, you went there a month ago, right?"
"Yes, just to reminisce and look for old memories. Even though it was painful, it's all in the past. It's not appropriate to hold on to old hatred, especially since it was all my fault."
Doing body exercises in the yard, Fu Hua spoke casually while guiding Bianka to do Taixuan sword martial arts movements.
In terms of seniority, for Bianka, Fu Hua is her senior and master because she has taught her martial arts.
What Bianka is doing now is just reviewing what she has learned, as well as asking for guidance from an expert.
Fu Hua, who had recalled her past because of Thea, had much stronger martial arts than before.
The movements of the two of them moved like flowing water.
"If I may ask, why are you so sure that I will become a Herrscher? I mean you know about my past."
Fu Hua was very curious.
As a MANTIS warrior in the previous era, she and honkai already stood at two different ends of the spectrum.
The stereotype that all Herrschers hate humans still lingers clearly in her mind. Even though the Herrscher of this era was a bit strange, her thinking was still the same.
Fu Hua has carried out the Amber project mission for tens of thousands of years, guiding human civilization, while protecting them from the Honkai disaster.
Fu Hua couldn't imagine, that someone like herself would be chosen by the honkai god to become a Herrscher.
Isn't this an insult?
"Thea told me this was all based on her observations in the Sea of quanta. The seed of sumeru left by Su provided a lot of useful information about the records of the various bubble worlds."
Bianka does a kick.
"I understand, my doubts are now gone, thank you for answering my question."
"No need to be polite, it's not a secret either."
Within the MOTH organization, Su is a spiritual type MANTIS with the ability to almost predict the future. Fu Hua did not doubt her old friend's abilities.
She will became a Herrscher?
Recalling the painful past, Fu Hua could somehow guess some of the reasons.
Bianka suddenly stopped moving.
"What happen? Is something wrong?"
"No, sorry Fu Hua, I'll be gone for a moment!"
Having a panicked expression on her face, Bianka immediately used the godsbane suit, and she flew out of the island at high speed.
This made Aurora, who was currently relaxing on the deck of the ship, raise her guard.
"Captain Aurora, that's captain Durandal!"
"I know, let her go and turn off Selene. All of you be careful, trouble will come soon."
Receiving Bianka's notification through her stigmata, Aurora closed her eyes again calmly.
At Schicksal headquarters...
"Is there something wrong with the Ether Anchor in the sea of quanta?"
"Yeah, this has never happened before. I can feel my connection with the bubble world starting to falter."
Bianka reported what she found to Thea worriedly.
It's no longer a secret that when Bianka was 12 years old, she saved the entire bubble world from a fate of destruction.
All valkyries know this story.
She adventures there together with Rita, meeting new friends, collecting gems, and afterwards resurrecting ancient relics left behind by previous eras of civilization.
Ether Anchor - Durandal sword.
Thanks to this weapon, Bianka and the bubble world form a symbiotic relationship in which Bianka has the task of being their anchor in the real world.
This two-way relationship was stable after Thea gave Su's inheritance in the form of the Dea Anchor battlesuit to her. But at this time, a strange fluctuation appeared in the Sea of Quanta which made this solid connection begin to falter.
"It seems like our enemy aren't standing still either."
Thinking back to what the Will of Honkai was currently planning, Thea made the decision to help.
"Durandal, you and Rita will go to the Sea of Quanta to find out what really happened there. In this operation, Schicksal and the Anti-Entropy scientists will help you."
"I'll contact Dr. Schrödinger."
"Thank you Saintess Thea!"
Bianka gave a formal greeting with eyes full of gratitude.
Thea shrugged her shoulders.
However, in that bubble world there were still her big sister friends. She wasn't so cold-blooded as to make an order to ignore it.
Apart from that, even though Bianka and Rita were absent from Herrscher's preventive operation, the current Schicksal is different from the previous Schicksal. They had no shortage of S-rank valkyries who had strength on par with Herrscher.
Thea is not afraid of challenges at all.
Contacting fellow Anti-Entropy, and giving the new modified Genius a beacon back to the real world. Bianka and Rita disappeared into the portal, and she nodded towards Einstein and Tesla.
Henceforth, let these scientists monitor developments there.
Thea has something she wants to discuss with Maria, her assistant.
"Maria, I will be absent for a while. During this time you will be the leader of Schicksal, replacing me."
"Eh?"
Maria was surprised.
"Why are you surprised like that, this isn't the first time you've taken over my position."
"No, of course it's different Saintess Thea, this is impossible! I can't!"
Maria shook her head frantically.
When was the last time she took over leadership of Schicksal?
Didn't they almost go bankrupt?
If Thea didn't take care of the problems she left behind, Amber would probably stage a coup on the spot.
This multipurpose secretary cannot stand poverty.
"It's okay, believe in yourself. The important thing for a leader is to make decisions during critical times, and I chose you."
"You are better suited to lead Schicksal than I am."
"So Maria, please help me."
