Chapter 17: Chapter 17: The Herrscher Longing to Be Loved
Nagazora City, Chiba Police Station.
Mo Chen was sandwiched between Bronya and Sakura. While smelling the special fragrance of the girls, he suppressed his inner confusion and watched the video on his mobile phone.
At this moment, a lot of bullet screens passed by——
[Sirin went to the moon? ]
[A Herrscher can actually survive directly outside the atmosphere]
[Why are you focusing your attention on such a strange place? Shouldn't you pay more attention to the dragon that Sirin is sitting on? ]
[What's so great about dragons? Isn't it normal to have dragons in such blockbusters?]
[So, is this movie really filmed? But isn't it a bit too realistic? It always feels like it's real.]
[How is that possible? It's definitely a special effect… Yeah, I guess.]
Various comments were discussing the scene in which Sirin supported the giant dragon and rushed into the sky.
Moreover, because the images in the video are so realistic, more and more people are realizing that this film is not fictional, but may be a real film...
"Is this girl the Herrscher of the Void?"
Sakura saw this and spoke instinctively.
She had never directly seen the Herrscher of the Void of this era, but many comments on the screen indirectly revealed her identity.
"That's right." Bronya nodded. As someone who has a close relationship with the Herrscher of the Void, she explained calmly, "Herrscher of the Void, Sirin, was an experiment in the Babylon laboratory of Schicksal. Her original goal was to destroy the world, but in the end, due to various reasons, she failed to achieve her goal. Instead, she was resurrected later and joined Schicksal, becoming a Valkyrie under its command."
"Sirin has resurrected and joined Schicksal?!"
Mo Chen was shocked to hear the news from Bronya.
Although he already had a certain understanding of the perfection of this world line, he was still greatly shocked when he heard from the other party that Sirin was still alive and joined Schicksal to become a Valkyrie.
Bronya looked at him in surprise and said, "Ms. Sirin is one of the only S-rank Valkyries in the Schicksal. She has been active all over the world. She even collaborates with the magical girl Teriri to form a magical girl trio. She is one of the world-renowned Valkyries."
"She's famous?"
"That's right. So which mountain valley did you come from when even Miss Sirin doesn't know?"
Bronya looked skeptical.
"…"
Mo Chen smiled awkwardly without explaining anything, leaving the other party to guess.
At the same time, the scenes in the video were officially presented to everyone.
…
The Herrscher of the Void, Sirin, came into space on the back of a dragon.
Suddenly, she heard a disembodied voice.
"Child, if you want to gain real power, come to me."
"Here it is…"
All of a sudden, Sirin realized that she had arrived in space, and standing in front of her was a huge white sphere—the moon!
Soon, Sirin obeyed the call and rode the magic dragon Benares to the back of the moon, and was surprised to find a huge ruins there.
A huge golden crystal was placed in the center of the ruins.
Sirin touched it lightly, and the next moment she came to a white space.
A stone seat was quietly placed in the far distance of the space.
On the seat, a blurry figure whose appearance could not be seen clearly was sitting silently.
Gradually, as Sirin watched, the godlike figure gradually transformed into Sirin's appearance, becoming consistent with her appearance.
"God? Are you the God who has been talking to me?!"
Realizing that the being before her was the Will of Honkai, Sirin was so frightened that she knelt down on the spot, feeling unspeakable fear and awe.
At the same time, Sirin, who was transformed by the will of Honkai, pointed slightly, and a large amount of memories flooded into Sirin's mind.
That was the memory of civilization from the previous era.
In the fight against the last Herrscher, the Herrscher of the End, Dr. Mei, the most intelligent scientist of the former civilization, used a special method to seal part of the power of the Honkai Will on the moon.
After knowing all this, Sirin immediately became excited. She shouted loudly: "So that's how it is. There is some power of God here... God, I know what you mean. Please give me that power! I will destroy those filthy humans for you! Destroy those filthy humans who took everything from me!"
After hearing what Sirin said, the Honkai Will granted her the authority to obtain four Herrscher Gems that symbolize wind, thunder, fire, and death!
After mastering the power of the five Herrscher cores, Sirin wanted to bring destruction to the Earth immediately and cleanse the surface with meteorites.
But she instinctively recalled Mo Chen, and the gentle expression on his face at that time, and the hand he stretched out to her...
All of a sudden, Sirin was shaken instinctively, and her heart was greatly shaken!
"No, no, no, no! That's all fake!"
"Those adults are all bad people who want to kill me! That guy is the same..."
'He is just deceiving me! Don't be fooled by him!'
Even with this thought, Sirin's hesitation did not stop but became even stronger.
Therefore, with mixed emotions and a confused look, Sirin did not summon the meteorite immediately, but instead used the power of the Herrscher to issue a declaration to mankind—
"Foolish humans, I will soon arrive in your world in person."
"I will bring the destruction myself, kill all of you damned humans, and destroy this world!"
"If you have the guts, come and stop me!"
After she finished speaking, Sirin bit her lip.
She didn't know why she said these meaningless words.
Compared to threats that would simply arouse the other party's vigilance, dropping meteorites directly from the moon to the Earth is the fastest way to achieve one's goal and make those humans who persecute themselves feel pain.
But she finally hesitated...
Thinking back to the man named Mo Chen, and the tenderness he displayed at that moment that made her nostalgic, Sirin's heart was visibly shaken.
She longed for an answer...
She longs to be loved...
"Humph, huh, huh, huh, this is just a test… That's right, actions will prove everything. Let me see if you are as hateful as those adults!"
Sirin gritted her teeth.
She no longer wanted to think about it anymore and just wanted to witness the other party's actions.
No matter how nice the words sound, if you can't take actions that she can accept, then in the end it's just a fake, a forged counterfeit...
"Adults are all liars..."
Talking to herself, Sirin once again boarded the dragon's back and headed for Earth.
This time, she descended on the Siberian snowfields again, returning to the place where she was born.
…
[Sirin didn't choose to destroy the Earth directly. She is not a bad person after all.]
[Yes, but in the end, it was the kindness shown by Mo Chen at that time that made Sirin feel warm. Children are like a mirror, reflecting what adults do in their daily lives.]
[That's right, if it weren't for the cruel experiments in the Babylon Laboratory, how could Sirin be so hostile to humans?]
[After all, she is just a poor child who longs for love.]
[So it's all Otto's fault!]
[Otto, when did your mother die?]
[Ahhh, I really hope Master Mo Chen can save this poor child!]
[But it's difficult, right? Schicksal and Anti-Entropy will definitely find a way to destroy Sirin.]
Various comments flashed across the screen.
At the same time, in the Schicksal branch in Nagazora City.
"Herrscher..."
Mei Raiden, holding a mobile phone in her hand, watched the newly released video with her teammates, and her expression looked a little complicated.
Seeing the girl in the picture who was forced to be the enemy of the world but just longed to be loved, she seemed to recall something all of a sudden and fell into a long contemplation.
