Chapter 242 Sakura VS Kevin
[Kamisato Ayaka] "By the way, what do those curses that Miss Yaezakura mentioned mean?"
[Bronya] "Bronya knows something..."
[Brownie] "In short, the captain's luck will be bad recently."
[Just now it was a "semi-finished product". I have a complete version here, Captain, you can take it. ]
[Captain] "Do you think I'm dumb or stupid? Your [semi-finished product] is so vicious, how dare I want the [complete version]?"
"But I'm curious about the full version. Tell me about it."
[Okay, the captain behind is as smart as Kiana, as tall as Theresa, as lucky as Fu Hua, as romantic as Otto, and as long as he wears his hat.]
[What do you think, Captain? Are you interested? It’s not too late to ask for it now~]
[Captain] "Haha...get out!"
[Raiden Mei] "At least the captain has eliminated one wrong answer for us..."
[Alicea] "Next it's time for Miss Pink Fairy to perform!"
Just as Alicia was about to press the buzzer, someone moved faster than her.
[Please ask Weiwei (Elysium) to answer the question]
[Aliceia] "Vilvi~ How dare you snatch the chance to answer the question from me? Give it to a newcomer like me."
[Vilvi (Paradise)] "Hehe, it's finally Velvi's turn to perform~ Xiaobai, I choose E, Sakura."
【Congratulations to Wei Wei (Le Tu) for answering correctly! 】
[Higyamaru] "Sister..."
Feiyumaru remembered the time when she was identified as a Herrscher of Corrosion by those Fire Moths.
Because she was killed by terrified humans when she was still a human, she went berserk and became a Herrscher, attacking humans. It was not until the death of her sister Sakura that she regained her sanity.
But at that time, Hiyamaru had already developed a great hatred for humans, and things were out of control, so he was sealed in a black box by Dr. Mei.
Yaezakura, who was standing by, noticed that Hiyomaru was in a low mood, so she stroked Hiyomaru's head and comforted him...
[Yae Sakura] "It's okay, Hiyamaru. It's all over."
[Higyokumaru] "Well, there's no need to hate anymore, it's all in the past..."
[The video starts playing below] (It’s almost the same plot from Seele’s perspective in the Quantum Ocean, but the author will not include Seele in it)
In the pre-civilization era, with the death of the 11th Herrscher, a special Honkai energy reaction was detected in the body of Sakura's sister Ling, and she was identified as the 12th Herrscher by the Fire Moth.
Although Ling does not have the abilities of a Herrscher and still retains human consciousness, people who are terrified of the Herrscher still bring her back to the base and imprison her, with Dr. Mei in charge of studying the secrets of Ling.
Since Sakura does not trust the Fire Moth, in order to rescue Ling, she breaks into the cell where Ling is imprisoned, but finds that Ling has been transferred. She can only go to the archives room to find Ling's whereabouts.
Because she didn't have permission to access the archives room, Ying broke through the patrol robot and took the elevator to the archives room. After the system checked the personnel flow records in each area, Ying knew that Ling had been transferred to the 33rd floor underground.
On the way to the 33rd floor underground, Sakura met Kevin...
Kevin held the Holy Fire Judge in front of Sakura and said, "That's enough, Sakura."
Sakura "Get out of the way! Kevin, I know exactly what I'm doing!"
Kevin naturally understood Sakura's feelings, but he would never give in. "I know that too, so I want to stop you. Sakura, stop before things become irreversible."
"Your actions are tantamount to betrayal of humanity."
[Paimon] "Just going to save my sister shouldn't be considered a betrayal of humanity."
[Kevin] "If her sister was an ordinary girl, then it really wouldn't count, but at that time, all signs pointed out that Ling was the twelfth Herrscher."
"Regardless of whether she is controlled by Honkai or not, even if not, it is unrealistic to release a bomb that could go berserk at any time."
[Mobius (Elysium)] "After all, at that time, humans could no longer withstand any destruction. Even I would do the same. Love can create miracles for me... No, it didn't exist at that time."
"All we can believe in is a series of cold data..."
[Qianjie (Paradise)] "Then how do you explain what happened later? Kevin, you stopped Ying, so why didn't you stop those scumbags?"
Kevin was speechless. He might have been right or wrong at that time, but no matter what, he could not change people's fear of the Herrscher, nor could he prevent the tragedy from happening.
[Sakura (Paradise)] "Kevin, you don't need to blame yourself. After all, you have your responsibilities, and I have my stubbornness. It's inevitable that we will become enemies if we disagree, even if we were once comrades..."
[Kevin] "Although it's a little late to say this, and you're not really me, but I still want to say... I'm sorry, Sakura."
[Sakura (Paradise)] "..."
In the picture, Ying looked at Kevin furiously, "Betraying humanity? Ling is innocent! She did nothing. You can't just label her as a threat, let alone imprison her!"
Kevin: "A special Houkai energy reaction was detected in Ling's body. There is no doubt that she is the 12th Herrscher."
Ying: "What does it mean to have a Houkai reaction? You and I both have Houkai beast genes in our bodies, but we are fusion warriors who protect humans."
"Ling doesn't have any symptoms. She can control that power. She won't hurt anyone else. You...you can't take away her life."
Sakura always believed that her sister would never hurt anyone, but Kevin didn't think so. Everything he had experienced told him all the time that the Herrscher was the enemy of mankind and was an existence that must be eliminated.
Kevin continued to persuade Sakura, "Sakura, I understand how you feel. But the ability of the 11th Herrscher is beyond everyone's imagination. No one could have thought that the disaster would come in that form."
"We can no longer afford losses like that."
"Ling's situation is very special, but she must be supervised. Please trust that Dr. Mei will make wise judgments."
Ying: "I don't doubt Dr. Mei's character, but I can't trust the Fire Moth. Kevin, you know how those people have been looking at us all along."
"I don't care what happens to me, but now that the bell is in their hands, I will never sit idly by. Get out of the way!"
Ying tightly grasped the sword at her waist, as if she would attack Kevin at any time.
Kevin: "Sakura, the Fire Moth needs you. We need you. I won't hurt you, but I won't let you pass through here either."
Sakura: "Kevin, even though we have fought side by side for so long... you have never seen my true ability with your own eyes, right?"
Kevin remained silent...
The sharp blade flashed with cold light, and the giant sword burst into flames. The two men were so tense that it seemed as if space had stopped.
The white-haired warrior, holding a flaming sword, slowly walked towards his target.
