Chapter 470: You and I's Theater
"It seems like you understand." The Herrscher of the Sky floated in the air and looked down at Kiana.
Kiana exclaimed, "Hersher of the Void..."
Herrscher of the Void: "Long time no see, my vessel~"
Kiana: "I am not your vessel."
Herrscher of the Void: "The last time we met was in Sky City, right? It's been so long, but the way you struggled to death hasn't changed at all."
"Kiana, you kept running, but where could you go? In the end, you still succumbed to the pain and knelt down in front of the cracks in your heart - in front of me."
Kiana said firmly, "I am no longer the person I was back then. I will not give in to you."
The Herrscher of the Void laughed and said, "Haha, you are so bold. But if you hadn't wavered, how could I be here, standing in front of you, controlling this body?"
"You are afraid to face me and refuse to face me. That is why you bury me deep in your heart."
"But now, you lose."
"My shackles have been released, and no one will disturb us anymore. Your long-term efforts, and everything you have done so far, are all in vain☆."
Once, when Kiana was controlled by the Herrscher of the Sky, she was surrounded by Himeko, Fu Hua, and other companions who helped her break free from the Herrscher's control.
But now, Kiana can only rely on herself to defeat the will of the Herrscher of the Sky.
Kiana asked, "Why do you want to help the Ruler?"
Herrscher of the Void: "Help? Hahaha, don't compare those puppets with me."
"They are a group of hopeless losers, pathetic ants. They mutter incomprehensible words, and their every move is filled with the same aura of weakness as you."
[Captain] "What the Queen said is true. Those puppets are indeed losers. These losers formed a team, the Thousand Herrschers."
[Hei Xier] "But it is such a Herrscher of the Thousand that has forced us into this state? It's really ironic."
In the scene, the Herrscher of the Void briefly describes the transaction between the doll and her: "These guys came to me on their own accord and said they wanted to rescue me. They looked so funny."
"However, I am still willing to give them a chance so that I can enjoy a clown farce - I really didn't expect that they would actually bring you to me."
"To be honest, I am only disappointed right now. You are not as good as them. You don't want to be called the half of a [Container] by me☆"
Kiana remained silent. She really had no way to refute, nor did she want to refute. She was indeed careless and let those puppets succeed.
Herrscher of the Void: "Well, I have finished my opening remarks long enough. I hope you have cherished this time and savored the last days of your life."
"Come on, Kiana. This is a theater for only you and me. It belongs only to the winner. Just let me dominate you..."
"This is a fate you can't escape."
[Cecilia] "In the end, we're going to have to fight..."
[Captain] "The winner is the king, the loser is the enemy. It seems that the winner will take control of the body, and the loser will probably... eh..."
[Book of Blue Mystery] "Now without Yu Duchen's help and the support of her companions, can Kiana defeat the Herrscher of the Void by herself?"
[Kiana] "Of course you can! I won't fall down here!"
[Herrscher of the Sky] "You really like to brag. Although according to the plot development, the situation will be better if you win, but I am not someone who can be bullied."
[Alicea] "It's so sad. Can't we just get along and stand together against all odds?"
[Mebius (Elysian Land)] "What are you thinking? This is impossible. Kiana and the Herrscher of the Sky in the picture have already reached a point where they can no longer make peace."
[Captain] "After all the previous events, there will inevitably be a showdown between the two of them that will end everything. They are like water and fire, incompatible with each other; they cannot make concessions or compromise with each other."
The Herrscher of the Sky wants to take revenge on humans because humans have suffered endless pain and despair, so naturally he would not have a good impression of Kiana who stands on the side of humans.
Because of the Herrscher of the Sky, Kiana hurt many people. She cut off one of Siegfried's arms, hurt Mei Raiden and Theresa, and even lost her teacher Himeko forever.
No matter how pitiful each other is, no matter how many secrets they have, they always have reasons to hate each other.
The scene continues, and Kiana and the Herrscher of the Sky have a brief confrontation.
Herrscher of the Void: "At this point, do you still think you have a chance of winning?"
"You never could. You couldn't let go of those tormenting memories and the heavy shackles. You wanted to escape, but you could only sink deeper and deeper into the quagmire."
"Because this body is a container. The soul it carries is too heavy, too heavy for you to bear. And I am only here to take back what belongs to me."
Kiana: "In Sky City, you once said that I could never get rid of you. In the days since then, I have been thinking about the meaning behind this sentence and the answers to two questions - who are you and who am I?"
"I am not interested in discussing philosophy with you. I am Sirin, the Herrscher of the Void, and you are subject K423. This is a long-standing answer."
Kiana: "No... There is a fact that I didn't want to admit in the past. But only by accepting it can I fill the gap in my soul and have the possibility of fighting against you."
"I am you. We are two selves belonging to the same body, two existences born out of Xilin's desire. You and I are both extensions of Xilin."
Hearing Kiana's answer, the Herrscher of the Sky couldn't help but laugh. "I thought you were going to say something. Now, you're claiming to be Sirin? Are you crazy? Are you crazy?"
"Okay, I want to see. Since you are Xilin, how do you plan to fulfill Xilin's wish and destroy the world that she failed to destroy?"
Kiana: "Yes, this is your method. You pretend to be Sirin and wantonly vent your malice and hatred. In this way, you separate me from the real Sirin and make me refuse to face my own identity."
"But that's just your wish, not Xilin's. Her dreams have turbulent, dirty darkness, but also calm, warm glimmers."
"Complex and conflicting emotions are woven into her heart, but you only want me to see the resentment in it."
After listening to Kiana's words, the Herrscher of the Sky decided to have a good talk with Kiana about this issue.
