Honkai: It’s broken, I have become the Herrscher of Corrosion?

“Ah…ah?”

Xilin blinked to make sure she had heard correctly.

"No, no, why?"

"Because she's dead, we don't have to be her clones anymore and can be our true selves."

The cheerful and bold Enosia spread out her hands, speaking as if she was chatting about daily life.

"Xilin, if someone could decide your life or death at any time and modify your cognition, you would also want to get rid of her."

"But...but since she can modify your cognition, why..."

"Because she doesn't care. Or rather, she doesn't mind us finding a way to kill her and putting it into practice. The only thing on her mind is saving Atlantis."

Xilin opened her mouth and was about to say something when the cheerful and bold Enosiya came up and hooked Xilin's chin.

"Why would you risk helping us? Aren't you going to find Bella and Enosia from the original world? As clones, we can't help them, but as long as they are still in this bubble, the real body with the complete power of the Herrscher will be able to find them immediately."

"In addition, we can feel that recently, for unknown reasons, her strength has been growing. At present, she is still unable to erode you, who is also a Herrscher, but it is hard to say if she becomes stronger. I don't know what kind of person I am in the original world, but this Enosia must be someone who will do anything to save Atlantis. For an outsider like you who has an unclear position, she must use the power of erosion to control you first. Let's take a step back. Even if she still can't control you at that time, then Bella..."

When Xilin thought that she would be separated from Enosia and Cecilia forever, and that her Bella might be taken away by someone else, she immediately showed a look of horror.

"Enosia told me that the Herrscher of Corrosion can devour the Herrscher of Corrosion. So what you meant by asking me to kill her was actually asking me to beat her until she is weaker than you, and then you completely assimilate her. Then how can you guarantee that you, who become the new Herrscher of Corrosion, will not corrode me?"

"There is indeed this risk, but she has been getting stronger recently, it is very likely because..."

Xilin was silent for a long time, and finally nodded:

"Take me to her."

The cheerful and bold Enosia immediately put her forehead close to him:

"Relax, I only have a portion of my erosion power, so even if I want to do anything to you, I don't have the ability to do it."

Soon, a coordinate appeared in Xilin's mind, and she teleported there without any hesitation.

As Xilin left, a breeze blew under the dark night sky, blowing up the long hair of the five people at the same time. K423, who had been sitting silently on the grass, looked at the four Enosiyas with a sneer on his face:

"Do you like to bully honest people so much? Only Xilin would believe your poor excuses and flawed performance. I'm the willful one, but you guys are the bad guys."

The cheerful and bold Enosiya pressed her body against him again, but this time, K423 did not refuse.

"But now she is the only one who can bring the last hope to this desperate world, isn't she? Since you don't want to go back, we will stay here with you until that moment... comes."

(Switching to Bella's perspective...)

Unlike Xilin, after Bella regained consciousness, what she saw was a wilderness with no human habitation as far as she could see.

"Where are the Queen and Enosia? I have to go find them quickly."

She flapped her wings and flew forward. Not long after she flew, she saw a familiar figure in front of her. The long blue hair and elf ears made her feel very close. However, when she got closer, Enosia in front of her turned into a ball of black mist, covering her whole body.

"Hey, isn't this my dear Bella? Since you took the initiative to throw yourself into my arms, don't blame me for starting, hehehe..."

Accompanied by a familiar yet unfamiliar voice, countless pairs of black hands stretched out from the black fog and started to touch Bella's body.

It’s not that Enosiya hasn’t touched herself before. If she was in Paradise or other data spaces, she would even use the power of erosion to cut off the horns on her head in order to make herself comfortable in her arms.

Anyway, she was very nice to Xilin, and Xilin had no objection. Besides, she felt very comfortable when she used her as a pillow. It was said that she had studied this with Alicia.

But now, Bella felt like she had been harassed in public. These black hands were rubbing and touching her body, making her feel uncomfortable all over. She subconsciously used her ability, and as the violent lightning spread in all directions, the black mist gradually retreated and gathered again less than one meter away from her, turning into the appearance of a faded fairy lady again.

"Oh my, Bella is really not cute. She has such a good relationship with me in the Eigenworld, but now she wants to reject me. Do you know that I will be very sad if she does this?"

Being stared at by the same pair of orange-red pupils, Enosiya made her feel familiar, but now, she just felt nauseous.

"Each world bubble is equivalent to a brand new world. In the world bubble, we may meet someone who has the same appearance and name as our original world, and even has some similar experiences. But she is different from the person in our original world. They are essentially two different people."

Enosia's words echoed in Bella's mind, allowing her to partially understand the situation.

"Since they are not the same person, then they are enemies. However... can I hold out against the Herrscher of Corrosion until the Queen or Miss Enosia arrives?"

Thinking of this, Bella's forehead was covered with sweat. The attack of the Herrscher could directly modify her consciousness, and she had no idea how to defend herself. She was not Xilin, at best she was just a pseudo-Herscher. Facing a Herrscher with a real Herrscher core, all she could do was to make the opponent waste more effort.

"Bella, why are you standing still? Are you mesmerized by my beautiful face? If so, just be good and feel the embrace of love~~"

Her right hand slowly stretched towards Bella's left cheek, with a perverted smile on her face.

"Snapped."

Bella raised her hand and gave her a crisp slap.

"Ah... he was just blown away by me?" Bella looked at the person in front of her who flew at least one meter away, her eyes full of surprise.

"You hit me, you hit me... Since you are so disobedient, I will have to tie you up first, until you are willing... to stay by my side forever..."
