Actually, to walk up to this point, Kiana's body had already come to the brink of collapse. What supported her to walk on was entirely an extremely strong will and an unyielding belief.
"I definitely can do it, absolutely can do it, I must do it! Because I promised him…" After saying that, Kiana once again began to mobilize the only remaining trace of strength in her body.
However, a few seconds passed, and other than feeling the weakness of her body, Kiana felt nothing. Let alone any extra strength.
Thinking of this, Kiana mocked herself in her heart, 'As expected, I really can't do anything…'
Just as Kiana was despairing in her heart, a piece of fiery red broken feather suddenly floated through her mind. Immediately after, the power hidden in her body surged out like a tide.
At the same time, Kiana seemed to hear an unwilling cry from the depths of her soul.
Looking at that broken feather slowly dissolving in her palm, Kiana felt herself filled with determination.
———
[Van!!!]
[Even if the person is gone, my Emperor Van can still carry (the team)]
[Herrscher of the Void, I really give up, are you guys ever done or not]
———
[Back to the video.]
Turning her head, Kiana deeply looked at Raiden Mei. Raiden Mei's lips trembled slightly. At the moment Kiana turned her head, she already understood all the decisions Kiana was going to make.
Even though she felt too much reluctance and heartache for Kiana, Raiden Mei still chose to believe in her.
A gust of strong wind blew past, and Kiana left.
The night scene of Sky Dome City looked especially dazzling under the neon lights, telling the story of this city.
A train roared through between tall buildings, and the ringed snake symbol on the body of the train flashed under the light.
Kiana wore a hood, skillfully weaving through the towering high-rises, like a merciless assassin.
Her movements were clean and sharp, tapping her toes off billboards, flipping over air ducts, and finally landing steadily on the rooftop of a building.
In front of her, several blue mechas blocked the way. After taking a deep breath, Kiana handsomely took off her coat and casually threw it aside.
Then she drew out a baseball bat from the void and spun it with a flashy flourish.
"I don't have time, to stay here and play with you guys!"
As her resolute words fell, Kiana gathered strength at her feet, leapt, and charged toward the top of the building.
Facing this intruder Kiana, the group of mechas didn't hesitate to open fire.
Shells and missiles screamed toward Kiana, but she deflected them one by one using the baseball bat.
———
[Baseball bat hits missiles?]
[Where can I buy this baseball bat? I want one too.]
[You're all paying attention to the bat, but I'm noticing that Kiana has grown up again.]
[You little punk!, slowly grown up.]
———
After breaking through the World Serpent mecha's defense line, Kiana finally arrived at the rooftop glowing with purple light.
At the very top of the rooftop, the Honkai energy bomb was right there, emitting an energy fluctuation that made people's hearts race.
"This is it… I must quickly disable the bomb…"
Even separated by a screen, people in the real world could feel its danger, but Kiana still charged forward without hesitation.
The closer she got to the bomb, the more Kiana could feel the highly concentrated Honkai energy spilling into the air.
The Honkai energy crashed against Kiana's body like a tide, causing purple lines to emerge on her skin.
The feeling of being corroded by the Honkai energy was not pleasant, it felt like countless bugs tearing at her from the inside.
The intense pain made Kiana let out pained groans.
But she gritted her teeth and endured the pain that ordinary people couldn't imagine, step by step walking toward the Honkai energy bomb.
Seeing this, no one in the real world remained unmoved, some with lower tear thresholds even had their eyes wet.
What made them even more uncomfortable was, as she got closer to the Honkai energy bomb, golden light began to shine in Kiana's right eye.
That was a sign of becoming a Herrscher.
Physical pain, mental torment, none of it spared Kiana.
But more unbearable to her than these was the torment of the heart, that despair of watching someone important disappear with her own eyes, yet being powerless to stop it.
Time seemed to pass like ten thousand years, and Kiana finally arrived in front of the bomb.
With the background music "StarFall" playing, Kiana painfully reached out to grab the bomb.
———
[High energy ahead!]
[Battle song rises!]
[Holy crap, this BGM is messing with us again, huh?]
[Quick! Smash the sound system of miHoYo!!!]
———
At the moment her body touched the Honkai energy, the armor and skin on the arm holding the bomb also began to crack.
The sound of tearing skin was heart-wrenching, but she still had no intention of letting go.
Just then, a familiar and gentle voice rang in her ear.
"Kiana."
Kiana's eyes suddenly opened wide, and she looked to the side in disbelief.
Van's phantom stood to her right, a semi-transparent hand placed on her wrist, gently watching her.
"Van…"
Hearing the voice of a familiar person, Kiana's voice trembled slightly.
"Yes… I promised you…"
Closing her eyes, memories of every moment spent together flashed by. When she opened her eyes again, there was no more confusion inside them.
"I will turn this imperfect story… into the ending we longed for!"
In a daze, Kiana seemed to see that red figure wielding a great sword.
After bursting forth with all the power in her body, Kiana charged toward the sky with that Honkai energy bomb that could destroy a city.
The Herrscher's outfit appeared on her body, but her eyes were no longer the cold golden pupils, they were deep azure blue, this was her own color.
Kiana had gained control of the Herrscher's power.
———
[From this moment on, standing in front of you is no longer the Herrscher of the Void, but Kiana Kaslana!]
[I got goosebumps just watching this!]
[Damn it, I'm fired up!]
———
The bomb was like a meteor flying upward, burning with a blinding light, igniting the sky dome.
People in the city looked up in amazement at this rare spectacle.
But what they didn't know was, that upward-flying meteor had just saved their lives.
Before her strength was exhausted, Kiana used the Spear of Subspace to pierce through the bomb and detonated it above the sky dome.
The intense light broke through the clouds, pierced the atmosphere, illuminating the world like daylight.
After doing all this, the power-drained Kiana fell from the sky dome, but there was a smile on her face.
'Even if the long night is endless and eternal, I will still ignite hope with the stars, your promise will be fulfilled by me.'
"This is… my promise."
