Chương 50: Chapter 50: "The new skill of the pufferfish"

In the real world, the chase between Herrscher, and a human who was on the verge of turning into a Honkai monster, has almost reached a climax.

Siegfried slaughters the Legion of Honkai beasts summoned Sirin, and eats them to replenish the lacking Honkai energy within his body.

Activates Cleaver of Shamash's fire once again. Siegfried slashed Sirin's left arm from above the sky, and immediately slammed her into the earth with an extremely heavy punch!

"Kyaaaaa!!!"

"BOOM!!!"

Dust scattered everywhere.

Falling from the sky, and stomping on Sirin's face mercilessly. Siegfried saw Sirin under his body, and he immediately raised his left hand which had extremely sharp nails, high.

"PURGE THE HONKAI!!!"

Siegfried stabs Sirin in the chest without hesitation!

"Kyaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!!"

Ignoring Sirin's screams of agony. Siegfried seemed to have found something, and he immediately pulled the object from Sirin's chest.

Sirin, stop moving.

Her eyes had become very dull.

See it's all over. Kevin, the one who guided Siegfried from the beginning, and to the end, came out and looked at the current situation of his descendants.

"[In order to defeat the 2nd herrscher, her regeneration power must be removed first.]"

"[You done well, progeny. You have extracted the gem of serenity from her body.]"

Looked at Siegfried, and noticed that Sirin was still alive. Kevin, who had misjudged the situation, looked at Siegfried with a surprised look.

"[His brain waves are unstable. He's not responding to genetic suggestion anymore... He's stopped for no apparent reason.]"

Feeling confused by the actions of this progeny. Kevin looked at the object that Siegfried was holding, and he was immediately stunned.

"[He doesn't hold the gem of serenity...]"

"[It's a infinity corridor cube.]"

Seeing the object that Siegfried was holding, Kevin paused, before he slowly closed his eyes.

Kevin's current consciousness connected with Siegfried's consciousness. As he took the cube of the infinite corridor that was sealing Cecilia, Kevin could feel his feelings too.

The feeling of wanting to protect someone.

A feeling that could even control someone who was on the verge of madness, to stop berserk.

Kevin, got it.

Because he had experienced it too.

"[He's fighting to cling on to the last vestiges of his humanity. Very well progeny. I will let you hold on to the thing you wish to protect.]"

Giving suggestions once again through the Kaslana stigma space. Siegfried, who received Kevin's order, thrust his hand once more into Sirin's chest, and he finally succeeded in taking the gem of serenity from her body.

"[The second Herrscher is almost dead.]"

"[You have done the most important task. She no longer has the gem of serenity, she can't recover anymore.]"

"[Now, you can kill her, progeny.]"

Kevin gives the final order to Siegfried. This time, he gave him a suggestion to kill the herrscher that was under his feet this time.

But...

Can everything be that easy?

Sirin can be called a puffer fish by many people for a very special reason.

When you deflate, and inflate several times. Pufferfish will also learn a new skill.

That is....

Explode.

"BOOOMMMMMM!!!!"

The Herrscher of Void's core cracked, and caused the power Herrscher of Void's become extremely unstable.

Due to the nature of Herrscher of Void's own core that can connect with the Imaginary space. Honkai energy flowed in through the rift channel, and immense honkai energy immediately gushed out from Sirin's body.

Long blocks created from Imaginary energy continued to leave her body one after another with Sirin's body as the center.

Siegfried, who was on top of Sirin's body, was knocked back, and he immediately slashed wildly at all the Imaginary blocks that came at him.

"Wooshhh!!!"

Siegfried: "!!!!"

Surprised to find that many Imaginary blocks were coming at him from all directions, almost filling his vision. Siegfried who was cornered, made a bold decision, and he immediately bowed his body tightly.

To protect the infinite corridor cube.

Because, there's Cecilia in there.

He had to protect her.

"BANG!"

"BANG!!"

"BANG!!!"

....

No matter how much Imaginary block destroys his body. Siegfried, never moved from his spot.

He, would not let the people he cares, get hurt in the slightest.

"RAAAAGHH!!!"

Meanwhile...

When Schicksal and Anti-Entropy were waging war against the honkai. All the inhabitants living in Siberia, saw a dazzling light from the edge of the horizon.

It was the light that was emitted due to the Herrscher of Void's core losing control.

The light was extremely dazzling, but for some reason it gave off an extremely intense sense of terror.

"Brother, what light is that?"

"What?"

Looking at the purple pillar of light rising up into the sky very quickly. Aftershocks of wind spread everywhere, and the little girl who was caught in the act, was thrown backwards.

"Kyaa!!"

"Tasha!!!"

Catching his sister's body very quickly. In his own arms, he saw his younger sister coughing violently continuously.

"Tasha, what happened to you! Are you okay!?"

"Cough, cough! Brother…"

Tasha was panting heavily, and her skin which was exposed by the honkai energy radiation, started to turn gray.

"Cough, that hurts... I feel like I'm on fire... Hngh... I.. I can't breathe... Big Brother... Save me.."

"Tasha, hold on! Big Brother will take you to the hospital now!"

Not realizing that he was also exposed to Honkai energy radiation. The boy tried to stand up, holding his little sister, but, his efforts were in vain.

They both fell to the ground helplessly.

"Cough… What exactly happened here…"

The boy felt like his whole body was slowly burning into charcoal.

The experience of being eroded by the honkai energy radiation was not only experienced by the two of them. All residents in Siberia experienced something similar.

Their skin began to turn pale in the blink of an eye. They started coughing up blood, and fell to the ground one after another without any resistance at all.

The city that was originally bustling both day and night, suddenly ushered in an incomparably deathly silence.

This is the horror of the honkai.

A suffering for ordinary humans in this accursed world.

"Ziggy! Ziggy dear!"

"Can you hear me!? Please wake up!"

Get out of the infinite corridor cube that imprison her. Cecilia who saw Siegfried lying helpless on the ground, and she immediately used her own blood to heal Siegfried's condition.

"Several muscle tears, and multiple fractures... You must get immediate treatment."

"And this looks like honkai tissue and carapace, and appears to be directly connected to his muscle and internal organs."

"... Were you fighting the enemy in this form, Ziggy?"

Standing silently to the side, and not seen by anyone. Kevin saw Cecilia who was caring for Siegfried carefully, averted his eyes, and his gaze immediately fell on the divine key weapon that Cecilia was currently holding.

"[I didn't expect that in this era there would be someone who could control the Abyss Flower. She might be able to save the progeny that was almost corrupted.]"

"[But...]"

"[You all are running out of time.]"

Staring at the giant spiral created from the many Imaginary blocks. Kevin could only sigh.

Tragedy will eventually repeat itself.

It doesn't matter what era it is.

As long as there are honkai, there will always be farewells.

"[The core of the 2nd herrscher has gone out of control. The cascade core will continue to release honkai energy, until it devours half of Asia.]"

Kevin looked at Siegfried and Cecilia.

Somehow, he seemed to see his old self.

He think that he could change the world according to what he wanted. But, he would not have expected that the world itself would change him.

"[In the end, you are both too weak. This disaster is beyond your powers to save. Neither of you will be able to survive.]"

"[You and your wife will die here.]"

Kevin said in a cold tone.

It was as if some entity was angry with Kevin's words. The Imaginary Block shot towards him, and immediately destroyed Kevin's projection with great savageness.

"[Goodbye, my progeny.]"
