Collapse, but Stand users

[Vilvie's improved bionic robots are playing a role in the reconstruction efforts across Australia, which are progressing steadily.]

Having witnessed the power of the Divine Key, the Firemoth regards it as an important way to enhance humanity's combat capabilities.

With the technical expertise gained from previous attempts, Vilvie's development of the Divine Keys became increasingly smooth.

Within two months, the sixth divine key—the Black Abyss White Flower—was developed.

Alicia was chosen as the user of the Sixth Divine Key as the Compatible Person.

In the following two months, Velvi developed the second Divine Key—Thousand Realms One Vehicle—and the ninth Divine Key—Starry Harmony.

[Due to the sinking of the Mu Continent, the lunar portal 'Star Gate' and the quantum sea portal 'Eye of the Abyss' established on the Mu Continent disappeared together.]

Due to its unique characteristics, the Thousand Realms Vehicle is used as a portal connecting the Moon and the Sea of ​​Quanta.

Normally, Su uses the Thousand Realms One Vehicle as a tool to observe parallel worlds.

[As for the other Divine Key, Eden intuitively discovered its hidden power, and thus naturally became the user of the Star Harmony.]

"Mei, why are we eating in the cafeteria? Didn't Kira-senpai cook?"

"..."

Mei didn't say anything, and went about getting food for herself and Kevin.

Although Kevin was puzzled, he didn't say anything and sat down to eat with May.

"Something's wrong, this Honkai energy fluctuation... Oh no! The target is Mei."

Kevin suddenly punched Mei in the back, causing the air behind Mei to ripple, and then a figure flew backward.

The commotion attracted the attention of everyone dining in the cafeteria.

"This guy is... a cook in the cafeteria, what's going on?"

"Excuse me, please make way." Kevin, a native of the area, cleared a path for May through the crowd.

Mei stepped forward and frowned.

'Did Kira Yoshikage guess right again?'

Afterwards, Mei took him to the laboratory, where she indeed found a condensed Herrscher core on him.

But Mei didn't dwell on those things for the moment; she was thinking about Yoshikage Kira's motivations.

'Why remind me again this time? Why remained silent when it came to the Herrscher of Rock?'

Mei wanted to go and question Yoshikage Kira, but after what happened in Eden, no one was willing to question him again.

......

Three days later, 15 new tenth Herrschers appeared in the city. After they were captured, condensed Herrscher cores were found on each of them, and they were able to use the powers of the previous Herrschers.

In the following days, more and more Tenth Herrschers appeared. Before revealing their abilities, they were no different from ordinary people. Taking advantage of this special ability, they hid in the crowd.

They spread negative rumors and tried to incite hostility towards the Firemoths and the Fusion Warriors.

Most of the warriors of the Fire Moth fight for the people.

But Yoshikage Kira is not.

Anyone who showed any abnormality perished in the bombs planted by the Queen of Assassins.

Although some members of the team disagreed with your actions, no one criticized you because the pressure of fighting the Herrscher had indeed been reduced considerably.

Although you wouldn't care about other people's criticisms.

Afterwards, the Tenth Herrschers found themselves unable to mobilize the opposition between the common people and the Moths of Flame, so they set their sights on the Divine Key.

Mei sensed the Herrscher's intention and gathered the remaining Herrscher cores together, intending to lure out the remaining Herrschers.

"...Then there are only two places to store the Herrscher core: the Golden Garden and the P21 island in the Deepest Abyss."

Listening to the discussion, Yoshikage Kira did not express his opinion, but simply played with the Herrscher Core in his hand.

Everyone knows what you've been up to lately, they just assume you've gone 'hunting' again.

'They actually chose me? This is really...' Kira Yoshikage thought to himself.

Yoshikage Kira was chosen by the Honkai to become one of the Herrschers of a Thousand, and the power he was granted was the Herrscher of Knowledge.

After experiencing it for a few days, Yoshikage Kira rated the power as extremely useful. The power appeared directly on his Stand, allowing him to secretly kill enemies without leaving home.

Kira Yoshikage smiled at Klein, who had come with Mebius.

Klein nodded politely.

When should we make our move?

'Don't rush, it's not the right time yet.'

'If you don't succeed, we'll abandon you!'

Kira Yoshikage smiled dismissively and ended his communication with Klein.

Finally, everyone decided to concentrate the Herrscher cores on P21 Island. Mebius returned to the laboratory to retrieve the Herrscher cores, and Yoshikage Kira offered to accompany him.

“Here, the core of the First Herrscher.” Mebius handed over the Herrscher core, but Kira Yoshikage did not take it.

"Dr. Mebius, I'm doing this all for your own good."

"Huh? What are you talking about...?"

Before he could finish speaking, Yoshikage Kira drew his sword and stabbed Mebius in the heart.

"Doctor!" Klein saw that Mebius's white coat was stained with bright red, and for a moment she suppressed the Herrscher's core.

"That's why you have value in being saved."

"Killer Queen, invade her consciousness!"

"First Bomb" Yoshikage Kira gave a thumbs-up and then gently pressed down.

Klein clutched his head, screamed, and then fell backward to the ground.

"I said, there's no need to stab me in the heart."

"You're not going to die anyway, are you?"

“Heh, that’s true.” Mebius, who was lying in a pool of blood, stood up, took off his blood-stained white coat, and then picked up Klein, who was lying on the ground.

Yoshikage Kira picked up the core of the Herrscher of Reason and prepared to leave.

"Hey, what will happen if Klein doesn't regain consciousness for now?" Mebius called out to Yoshikage Kira as he reached the door.

Moonlight streamed through the door, casting Kira Yoshikage's shadow on the ground.

"Doctor, you already know the outcome, don't you?"

Mebius remained silent, holding Klein as he watched Yoshikage Kira leave.

"Heh, how cold-blooded."
