Honkai Impact: Star Railway: I'm really not a Star God!

Touching his chin, Ling Kong asked curiously.

"Little friend, aren't you afraid of me? Why do you dare to look me straight in the eye?"

Clenching her little pink fist, she punched Ling Kong hard. Iris's almost crying appearance threw Ling Kong into a panic.

"Wallace! Do you even know how to comfort a child?!"

"Ah?! Mr. Ling... I... I've never taken care of a child before!"

They kicked Ralph, who was still fast asleep next door, awake, and also woke up the second progressive thinker who had fallen into original sin. It took the four grown men a lot of effort to coax the girl back to her senses.

Finally, Iris regained her composure after maintaining her previous alertness, and her childish voice rang out, bringing a sigh of relief to the four grown men.

"Are you... bad people...?"

Would a bad person admit to being a bad person?

Ling Kong answered directly, causing Iris to retreat continuously.

He even received disdainful looks from the other three people.

Tsk... adding equality to the definition in the first place was a mistake.

"Fine, I know now. Your name is Iris. Iris, you're afraid of me, so why are you looking at me like that? Aren't you afraid I'll eat you up? Has no one ever told you that disobedient children get eaten by monsters?"

After staring at the air for a long time, Iris finally got used to her surroundings. After all, she was only six years old and was being stared at by four grown men the moment she opened her eyes.

Anyone who comes here will feel uneasy.

"This is the first time...a big brother...has helped me..."

"Oh? I didn't expect you to remember. It's a pity you ran too fast back then."

Ling Kong smiled slightly, and Iris's frail body finally stopped trembling.

From the first time Ling Kong saw this girl, he had a feeling that they were quite destined to meet.

Please, his eyes are also top-notch.

Purple often represents mystery. In Christianity, purple also represents repentance and introspection. Moreover, from the moment Ling Kong saw Iris, he sensed that this girl... had the potential to be nurtured.

I'm just a passerby in this world, let alone taking on an apprentice... I've never tried anything like this before, and thinking about it, it's quite novel.

"Mr. Ling, please leave this to us. Thank you for your help."

"It's alright, it's not important anyway. I don't have much to do usually anyway. But it would be best to reorganize the doctrines and propaganda methods recently. If nothing unexpected happens, someone will contact you to coordinate the work soon."

"Coordination work?"

Wallace asked in confusion, "Could it be that in Belloberg, they are not the only ones who believe in the original sin of faith?"

This idea didn't bring doubt, but admiration; now Wallace admired Ling Kong even more.

It's one thing for him to spread original sin here, but Mr. Ling is also sowing the seeds of original sin in places he doesn't even know about. This is many times more efficient than him.

"Hmm, what if I told you that in a few days the High Guardian would designate Original Sin as the state religion? What do you think?"

"The Great Guardian?! The State Religion?!"

Upon hearing the news, Wallace was shocked and shouted out. Realizing his loss of composure, he immediately lowered his voice, as if what he was talking about was a top secret.

"No need to be alarmed, Wallace. Look at Ralph and this... comrade, how calm they are. He's just a great guardian of Belloborg, isn't he? Open up your perspective. From now on, Original Sin will not only be promoted in Belloborg, but will also bloom in this galaxy."

The future described by Ling Kong moved Wallace to tears, although Ling Kong had no idea what he was imagining.

He didn't think what he said was particularly touching.

Ralf, who was mentioned in mid-air, was also startled. His voice was completely inversely proportional to his size; even Iris's voice was a bit louder than his.

"Mr. Ling... Master... I need to use the restroom..."

Ignoring the outwardly fierce but inwardly cowardly Ralf, he watched the silent Iris with amusement from mid-air.

"Iris, I must say, you're very lucky. If you're willing to pay a small price, I can grant you any wish—any wish at all!"

The way Ling Kong spoke sent a chill down the spines of the three of them, including Wallace.

Why do I always feel that the words of revolutionary leaders are mixed with so much...

Something that sends chills down your spine?

As Ling Kong spoke, memories of the day her parents were murdered flooded back to Iris. Seeing the pain on Iris's face, Ling Kong slowly covered her eyes and whispered in her ear.

"Don't be afraid...don't worry...don't be anxious...don't be angry...if anything dares to stand in your way...devour it—"

The three of them stared at each other, suddenly sensing that the atmosphere had become a little awkward.

What should I do? Why does it feel like my supervisor is turning into a monster?

Should I run for my life?!

This place feels very dangerous!!!

......

Lingkong is not a deity and cannot perfectly respond to the prayers of every believer.

He can also help you fulfill your wishes, but the process won't be so friendly.

Every gift of fate has its price already secretly marked, doesn't it?

But being in the air isn't entirely evil; as long as you can pass the test, anything is possible.

Passing through the Silvermane Iron Guard's blockade, Iris looked around curiously at everything.

Why... do the people around them seem to be unable to see them...?

"Oh? This? If you listen to me, you can learn this too~ I just eat up all the stares that are looking at me~ achieving a kind of... physical invisibility?"

Although she couldn't understand what Ling Kong was saying, Iris's face still turned red with excitement, she could tell.

That aerial maneuver was absolutely amazing!

"Ling...Ling Kong, brother...can you...save my dad...and mom...?"

"Save me? I can save you, but you need to know that changing the rules always comes at a price. There's no such thing as something for nothing. Instead of begging others, it's better to strengthen yourself so you won't lose anything."

Looking at Iris, who was looking down and sullen, Ling Kong shook his head.

He can't stand little girls like this.

"Don't worry, as long as Iris proves herself, I promise you, I can grant your request."

As they drew closer to the rift zone, a gaze fell upon Ling Kong, and at the same time, Ling Kong's true form in the lower zone also turned its gaze here.

"Ah...it took you so long to notice this place? It doesn't seem to be anything very powerful. I was worried it might cause damage before it even started..."

Looking at Ling Kong in confusion, Iris saw a familiar house. Fear made her tremble, but she still managed to lift her head by grabbing Ling Kong's hand.

He gently patted Iris's head and smiled slightly in mid-air.

Iris didn't dwell on it. She was clearly holding Ling Kong's right hand, so why was another hand touching her head?

"Now... it's time to give the Star Core a little shock."

Chapter 66 You... are merely a creation.

As the two arrived at the house, the dawn light shone directly on their faces. Iris tried to stubbornly glare at the sun, but her eyes were quickly blocked by a gust of air.

"Silly girl, why are you glaring at it? It's not like you can just glare at it and it will go out."

"Tell me... do you want to take revenge on those monsters who ate your parents?"

While blocking the sun, it also covered Iris's eyes in mid-air.

It is said that when a person is deprived of their sight, their other senses are enhanced.

Similarly, eating in this situation can also produce a stronger sense of pleasure.

"think."

Elizabeth answered without hesitation.

They've experienced all this at such a young age; they're hardly acting like children their age anymore.

"Do you want Brother Lingkong to help you get revenge?"

The voice from above is like the whisper of a demon, constantly leading lost lambs into its trap.

"think."

"Okay~ Now repeat after me..."

"Together..."

"Eat them."

boom!

There was a loud bang.

The residents of the upper district of Belleburg all looked in one direction at the same time, while the Silvermane Iron Guards beside the cordon stared in surprise and suspicion into the restricted area.

What on earth happened?!

While still reviewing documents in the audience hall, Cocolia felt a sudden pang of anxiety, and the sudden emotion caused her to accidentally break the pen in her hand.

She quickly clutched her heart; the pain... a star core?!

"What...what did you do?!"

With one hand gripping the table, Cocolia supported herself to prevent herself from falling to the ground.

"Great Guardian...you...betrayed me!?"

A terrified voice came from the Star Core, and Cocolia retorted angrily.

"What betrayal... utter nonsense!"

Searching through her memories, she realized this was the first time she had ever seen Star Core so distraught, and she vaguely heard a sound like shattering glass.

"Why!? There's another outsider!!!"

"Outsiders...? What outsiders...aren't there only three people?"

Cocolia muttered to herself in confusion. The star core had been slowly eroding Cocolia for a long time, and now that it was in pain, Cocolia was in pain as well.
