The surrounding space hissed and crackled as it could not withstand the force. The power of the Herrscher emerged, and Welt ripped open the void before him.
He forcibly tore open a gap in the "imaginary space" that was superimposed on the real space.
"Come out."
"The game of hide-and-seek is over."
The disguise was torn away, and what appeared before Walter and Siegfried was a purple-haired, golden-eyed girl exuding a terrifying aura, and Theresa, whose body was pierced and who lay on the ground, unable to get up.
The first law and the second law stand in opposition.
"Theresa is still alive. Take her back to the Tower of Babel for treatment. I'll hold off the Second Herrscher."
Watching the Second Herrscher rise into the air, Welt said to Zigfi.
"Wait, I can't leave you alone!"
"There's no time! If you don't want her to die, you'd better get out of here right now!"
That was the truth, and Siegfried couldn't refute it. He could only rush forward, pick up Theresa, and leave.
However, how could the Second Herrscher ignore them and let them escape?
The spear of imaginary numbers emerges. Under the power of the Herrscher of the Void, the imaginary numbers are linked with the real numbers, allowing this spear to cause harm to others in the imaginary space.
"Let her go!"
The spear was shot out, but Walter blocked it in time, just before it was about to pierce Siegfried's body.
The spears clashed against the barrier, creating a shockwave that broke through the ice and snow.
Siegfried didn't have time to think about anything else; he ran while shouting, "I'll come back to help you as soon as I get Theresa to safety!"
“My name is Welt, and I'm a Herrscher like you. I'm here hoping to have a proper talk with you.”
Walter felt he had never been so tired.
They finally managed to escape Otto and the Void Treasury.
As a result, they ended up with this robot that had been repaired by the Void Treasury and had learned to tell lame jokes.
"A Herrscher? Just like me?"
Sirin was filled with doubts about this man who called himself the Herrscher.
“God, what do you want to tell me…” she whispered to the God in her heart.
All of this, of course, did not escape Walter's observation.
'God? Could it be... that a fully-fledged Herrscher can communicate with 'Honkai'?'
Walter's heart was stirred.
Chapter 24 Fleeting
"Hahahaha!"
"So that's how it is!"
Celine suddenly burst into laughter.
"Haha, I see. It seems there was a traitor who betrayed 'God' before me."
Having received the answer from "God," Sirin reached out her hand, and several spears appeared behind her.
"And you are merely a replica of that traitor."
"You mere imposter dares to call yourself a Herrscher? Pay for your sins of betrayal with your life."
Seeing how much Sirin believed in that so-called "god," Walter decided not to waste any more words.
He untied his scarf, and the Star of Eden appeared in his hand.
"Your 'god'... is just using you."
Gravity erupted from the Star of Eden.
"It seems I must defeat you first... before I can have a proper talk with you."
The battle between Herrschers is about to erupt.
Amidst the snow-covered plains, a giant dragon roars in fury.
The First Herrscher, Welt, was swallowed by it.
In the distance, a man wearing a clown mask silently watched the battlefield.
"Hehe, luckily I made it in time."
"Let me see just how far the Second Herrscher has awakened."
Within Kiana's mental space, Sirin recalls her battle with Welt from years ago.
That man, whom I have killed so many times, always manages to reappear and fight me again at the most unexpected times.
"Perhaps she's just a girl in plain clothes from another world?"
Rakshasa said with a smile.
"This is too troublesome. Never mind, I'll just leave it at that." Su Chang shook her head. "I'll take you to a safe place first."
There was originally another person named Dan Heng, but halfway there he suddenly said he had received a message from his companion and left first.
"Does my other self also know a Rakshasa?"
"Will things end differently between you two...?"
Pedestrians kept passing by her, and every time this happened, she could feel the distance between herself and this era. At that moment, she was like a hermit living in seclusion.
In this era, the only people she seemed to know were the Rakshasa.
Everything about him seems unchanged—his persistence, his...love for Karen.
Amidst the ruins, the brown-haired boy cried uncontrollably.
"Why...why...why can't the bleeding be stopped..."
He desperately pressed his hand against the wound of the man slumped against the wall, trying to stop the blood from flowing out.
"Haha... Don't push yourself anymore."
The man spoke softly, offering words of advice.
"I feel that my life has come to an end."
"No! You won't die!"
“You are Walter, our hero.”
The boy's voice was filled with disbelief and determination; he didn't want Walter to die.
“Walter…?” The man smiled nonchalantly.
"Isn't this a great name?"
“…Yes.” The boy nodded, crying.
The man stretched out his hand with satisfaction, and a gray crystal appeared in his palm.
"From now on, you are Walter."
"At the heart of the Herrscher lies the mission to protect this world, 'WELT'—"
"I'm counting on you, Walter."
He entrusted his name to that boy, and he also entrusted the "world" to him.
At the end of his life, he closed his eyes.
Although it was just a false and fleeting life, to receive the name "Walter" from her—
That's wonderful!
Within the paradise, Alicia hummed a song of Eden, her eyes filled with joy.
Walter from their world is still in the Sea of Quanta. Although he has returned to the original world, Walter has chosen to stay there.
According to the future Welt, we can wait for the next successor of the Herrscher of Reason.
In the future, new Herrschers will continue to emerge, fighting for humanity.
Then, find another Herrscher and let her enter the Paradise of the Past.
"In memory of that hero, I became Walter."
Walter placed his hand on his chest.
"For decades, I have kept the meaning of this name in mind."
"Today," he opened his eyes again in the darkness, "Walter, once again, will fight to protect this world!"
Outside, the dragon Bella suddenly began to roar in agony.
Celine, who was just about to leave, looked at Bella strangely.
"I'm sorry, you can't leave here yet."
Bella screamed as something tore her body apart.
He tore Bella's body open and stepped out.
"Round two," he said, having already taken off his glasses. He pushed them back forcefully, shoving his loose hair behind him.
"It's only just beginning."
Bella suddenly attacked, but Walter simply snapped his fingers.
The giant robot suddenly slammed down, pinning Bella to the ground.
"Get out of the way."
Sirin was startled. Before she could react, countless Titan robots had already appeared behind Walter.
He alone is an entire Titan army.
"Second Herrscher, prepare—"
"Facing the First Herrscher, facing Welt's power?!"
What goes around comes around, hahaha.
Xing arrogantly looked at March 7th.
On the Star Train, Xing strode up to Walter, her eyes gleaming with an unparalleled thirst for knowledge.
Come on, those are hair-sprayed hands!
PS: Hehehe, I'm going to start playing the new version!
Chapter 25: A Challenge on Behalf of Humanity
[A barrage of artillery fire engulfed Sirin in the flames of the explosions.]
"Is this what you call the power of a Herrscher?!" Sirin, unharmed behind the spatial shield, looked down at Welt with disdain, mercilessly mocking his powerlessness.
Wait, something seems wrong?
Before Xilin's incredulous eyes, the protective shield she had built suddenly shattered.
"What?! These weapons are actually targeting my protective shield..."
"Don't be ridiculous! How could human weapons possibly harm a god!"
We'll be at the company headquarters soon.
Black Tower is too high-level; ordinary branches simply cannot unblock their accounts.
Damn it, I'll definitely find a chance to get my face back later!
[Cirin couldn't believe her eyes. She wanted to use the power of God to punish this arrogant traitor!]
"Let me show you just how vulnerable human weapons are!"
Countless invisible hands reached out from the imaginary space, destroying one Titan after another.
