As a symbiotic being, I raise children amidst the chaos.

"Strange, where am I? What is this place?" Theresa murmured to herself in a daze, feeling as if she were in another world.

Drifting in the misty clouds, feeling weak and powerless all over, it felt as if I were submerged in a deep pool of water.

Just as Theresa was drifting into a daze, a completely neutral voice suddenly boomed in her ears like thunder: "Your parents both died from a disease called Honkai!"

The sudden voice struck Theresa like a heavy hammer, instantly clearing her previously confused mind.

When Theresa came to her senses, she was shocked to find that she had somehow ended up standing on a wet beach.

Looking around, the space was bathed in a chilling crimson hue. Directly in front of her was a group of young children and a blurry, humanoid creature whose true form was difficult to discern. Among the children, Theresa immediately spotted Sirin.

[But don't be afraid, my dear children. Our Destiny Organization will extend a helping hand to you. However... all of this will require you to pay a very small price~]

As the humanoid creature spoke, it slowly pulled a syringe filled with Honkai energy from its robes. The syringe, shimmering with purple light, looked particularly menacing against the backdrop of the crimson space.

[You are truly fortunate to be born with antibodies that can resist Honkai energy—a gift from heaven to save humanity! So, for the future of all mankind, please assist me in completing this crucial experiment~]

Before he finished speaking, the man held a syringe and, without hesitation, stabbed it into Xilin's fair and delicate arm.

"Wait! We can't let him do this...!" Seeing the critical situation, Theresa shouted anxiously and rushed forward as fast as she could to stop this terrible scene from happening.

However, just as she was about to touch the other person, everyone seemed to be swept away by a gust of wind, disappearing completely from her sight in the blink of an eye.

[It hurts! My body...it hurts so much!!!] Just as Theresa was bewildered and unclear about what had happened, a series of extremely shrill screams suddenly entered her ears, making Theresa's heart tighten.

Theresa hurriedly looked in the direction of the sound and saw Celine clutching her head tightly with both hands, lying on what looked like a laboratory floor in agony, writhing desperately.

Those once bright and dazzling golden eyes were now dull and lifeless due to extreme pain, and tears streamed down her cheeks like a burst dam.

[Could it be that even this test subject couldn't withstand such intense testing? Hmph, what a bunch of useless trash!]

Just then, through the reflection in the window glass, Theresa vaguely saw several blurry, indistinct humanoid creatures whose faces were completely indistinguishable.

One of them angrily cursed, "If things continue like this, how are we supposed to explain ourselves if Bishop Otto gets involved! These good-for-nothings!"

“That’s not true… Grandpa would never…” Theresa shook her head in disbelief, covering her mouth tightly with her hand, her body involuntarily taking a step back, each step feeling so heavy.

Just then, the surrounding scenery changed again, as if stirred by an invisible hand. The already dark and oppressive atmosphere became even more intense.

The scene shifts, and there stands alone in front of a small, simple mound of earth. Her petite body trembles slightly, her small hands clenched into fists, her nails almost digging into her palms.

Those eyes, now filled with anger and sorrow, stared intently at the mound of earth before them, muttering to themselves, "Agata, Aurora, Bella, rest well... Don't worry, I will definitely avenge you!"

However, before Celine could recover from her grief, a harsh, mocking voice suddenly came from behind her. "Hey! You piece of junk, have you buried them yet? Why are you so slow!"

The speaker was one of the humanoid creatures. Another humanoid creature added, "That's right, that's right, let's hurry back to our experiment. I don't want to waste any more precious time on this useless trash!"

Hearing these vicious words, Theresa's anger flared instantly. Unable to bear it any longer, she leaped forward like an arrow and charged toward the humanoid creature.

"Shut up! That's enough!!!" Theresa roared, her eyes wide with fury. She then swung her right fist with all her might, slamming it down on the humanoid creature. "Those children aren't the trash you're making them out to be!"

Strangely enough, the moment Theresa's fingertips touched the humanoid creature, its body vanished into thin air like smoke, as if it had never existed.

However, Theresa had no time to pay attention to this strange phenomenon. She turned around abruptly, opened her arms, and hugged Sirin tightly.

“I’m sorry…” Theresa’s voice was filled with deep regret and self-blame, trembling as it was squeezed out of her throat.

Celine remained unusually calm in the face of Theresa's belated apology. Her eyes, which had been filled with anger and resentment, were now serene, and she simply responded indifferently.

"Only now do you think of offering a hypocritical apology? Don't you think it's a bit too late?" Completely different from her previous hysterical demeanor, Sirin's tone was now calm and chilling, with even a slight upturn at the corners of her mouth.

"What a pity~ It's all too late!?" Before the words were finished, an overwhelming force suddenly erupted, forcefully shaking Theresa's hands that were tightly embracing Sirin.

Celine's figure slowly rose, gradually floating into the air, gazing down at the disheveled Theresa with an air of superiority.

"I must exact a bloody revenge on those hypocritical, selfish adults in my destiny!" Sirin said through gritted teeth, every word filled with endless hatred.

"I will never let any of those who have ever bullied or oppressed me get away with it! But... you do have something special about you."

As she spoke, Sirin slowly descended to Theresa's side, leaned close to Theresa's ear, and whispered, "Moreover, I can feel the energy flowing within you, which is surprisingly similar to mine."

"If you are willing to become my subordinate, then I can grant you eternal life, allowing you to live until the day this world is destroyed."

"How about it? Aren't these generous terms incredibly tempting?!" Sirin parted her lips slightly, a wicked smile playing on her lips as she stared intently at Theresa in front of her.

Upon hearing this, Theresa remained silent for a moment, then slowly closed her eyes and gently placed her hands on her chest.

After a while, she opened her eyes again, her gaze resolute. "I cannot accept your proposal! Although I know I have no right to say this, please abandon your thoughts of revenge. Otherwise, I will stop you, even if it costs me everything!"

Upon hearing this, the smile that had been on Xilin's face vanished instantly, replaced by a look of utter disappointment.

"Oh, what a pity. I finally poured out all my past experiences to you, hoping you would understand me a little better."

"I never expected it to end like this." With that, she moved away from Theresa, somewhat dejected.

Seeing this, Theresa looked directly at Sirin, who had returned to mid-air, without flinching. "Of course I understand your pain, but that can never be an excuse for me to be your accomplice!"

"Also, please tell me where Chen Yuan is right now! I have something important to ask him in person!"

"You mean brother... that human?" The moment Theresa's words reached Sirin's ears, a barely perceptible hint of jealousy flashed in her eyes.

Immediately afterwards, Celine's gaze returned to normal, but the smile on her lips began to spread uncontrollably, becoming increasingly exaggerated.

Celine tilted her head slightly and said to Theresa in a smug tone, "He... is dead~ Right here, I took care of him myself!"

"How about that? Are you surprised? Hahahaha..." With a burst of wild laughter, Xilin appeared increasingly manic.

"What did you say!"

----------

"What exactly were those hands just now?" Siegfried muttered to himself, filled with doubt. Seeing that Walter Young showed no sign of stopping him, Siegfried grew bolder and turned his gaze back to the huge egg in front of him.

Just then, a crisp "click-clack" sound suddenly came from inside the giant egg. Immediately afterwards, a chilling scene unfolded.

Two eye-like objects slowly emerged from the gradually cracking eggshell and stared intently at Siegfried, who was standing not far in front of them.

Before Siegfried could recover from his shock, the two eye-shaped objects split apart with lightning speed, instantly transforming into two Honkai Beasts of different shapes!

If Chen Yuan were present at this moment, he would surely recognize the true identity of the Honkai Beast before him at a glance. Because it is no ordinary Honkai Beast, but an extremely rare Emperor-class Honkai Beast in Honkai Impact 3rd—Ashura!

It's important to know that some of the genes that Rosalia and Lilia possess in the future come from this terrifying monster.
