Honkai Impact: The Dream Keeper

After the Valkyrie's trial concluded, everything returned to normal. Following the message from the "Moon Throne," the Valkyrie and the three ordinary girls began their search for the four gems. Their first destination was New Zealand, where the Gem of Desire awaited them.

"Ugh~ I hate the feeling of flying," Long Qiao said, being hugged by Bronya in her heavy bunny outfit.

"Hehe, I didn't expect you to get airsick," Men Mo said cheekily.

"Hehehe, I didn't expect that either."

"Quiet, Himeko's call is coming," Mei said.

Himeko: "Lieutenant Kiana, you six should have arrived in New Zealand by now, right? Well then, let's begin the mission report."

Kiana: "Wait a minute, Himeko, I'm still really concerned about the analysis results of that ghost warship..."

Himeko: "Prioritize the mission, Kiana."

Himeko: "Now, I have some bad news. Just one day ago, New Zealand suddenly experienced a severe collapse reaction."

"! Honkai Impact... Mo-ge, Xiao-qing, I remember who we're facing. To be honest, I don't really want to fight." Just as Kiana was communicating with Himeko, Long Qiao pulled Men Mo and Zhang Qing aside for a meeting.

"Who are we going to face?" Zhang Qing asked, looking completely bewildered.

"Idiot! You at least played Honkai Impact 3 before you transmigrated. We're going to be facing a Herrscher next, the Herrscher of Wind, Wendy."

"I remember now, tsk, I didn't want to hit her either."

"Then we need to think of a good plan." The three of them then began devising a strategy to deal with Wendy.

------

After the three losers finished their discussion, Kiana also finished communicating with Himeko and Theresa.

"Let's go, let's go find the Gem of Desire!" Kiana said excitedly.

"Go, go."

------

"The detector is pointing to this location, but I can't see anything. Could there be something wrong with our positioning system? That shouldn't be the case," Mei said, scratching her head in confusion.

"Mei-neechan, wait a minute," Bronya suddenly said.

"What's wrong, Bronya?"

"Life detectors indicate a life response 50 meters to our east."

"East... I see her there, a young girl. It's dangerous here, we have to go save her."

The three people following behind watched the direction the three little ones ran off in, simultaneously thinking to themselves, "It's over! The main quest has begun—"

"Beep beep—" The communicator suddenly made a sound.

Himeko: "It seems you've found your target."

Mei: Target? Isn't our target the jewel? But we've only found this girl.

Himeko: "That's because..."

Long Qiao: "That's because this girl craves gems," Long Qiao said with a gloomy face.

Himeko: "That's right. Just as Takumi said, she craves jewels."

Wendy: "Um... my name is Wendy."

Himeko: "Let me explain again. This is because, three years ago, during an experiment at the Oceania branch, the Gem of Desire was transplanted into Miss Wendy's leg, combining Honkai energy crystals with Miss Wendy's shinbone, hoping to gain power on par with a Herrscher."

Long Qiao, Zhang Qing, and Men Mo: "Beast!" the three of them muttered under their breath.

Mei: "If that's the case, then Miss Wendy possesses immense power, yet she's so weak right now."

Himeko: "Although Miss Wendy was the most outstanding Valkyrie at the time, and was once considered to be the fourth S-class Valkyrie of this generation, unfortunately, she was unable to control its power."

Wendy: "It's because I lack the strength to control the power that craved the gem, and because of the crystallization, I can't move my legs either."

Mei: "Why is this happening? Why not remove the crystals? Because of this, Miss Wendy is now confined to a wheelchair."

Himeko: "That's because the power of the Gemstone is extremely unstable in all mediums, but it stabilized within Wendy's body."

Long Qiao: "In other words, Fate just used Wendy as a vessel, right? What a beast!"

Himeko: "Hmm...that's true, but for now, let's take Wendy back to the Hyperion."

"Hmm... Shall we go back? But won't it be inconvenient for me to look like this?" Wendy asked.

"No, Bronya doesn't think Miss Wendy will be a burden to us. Go, Qiao, it's your choice. Qiao, you carry the wheelchair," Bronya said, looking at Long Qiao.

"...What's wrong with you? Why me? Where's your Heavy Bunny?" Long Qiao asked Bronya with a displeased expression after being suddenly called out.

"That's because Bronya's Heavy Bunny is taking Miss Wendy with her."

"What about the others?"

"You can take turns carrying it."

"Alright, alright, you win, Henshin!" After transforming into Faiz, he turned around and picked up Wendy's wheelchair.

"Wow! It's so cool, and Bronya's robot looks so convenient!" Wendy exclaimed excitedly, sitting on Bronya's heavy-duty bunny.

"Wow, Bronya, that's amazing! Let me try it next time!"

"Kiana's answer is no."

"..."

------

"We'll be back on the warship in four minutes. It turns out Wendy didn't slow us down at all."

"Hehe... If I hadn't transformed, I would have been exhausted on the way here," Long Qiao muttered under his breath.

"Bronya was especially kind today," Mei and Menmo said at the same time.

"Huh? Could it be that Bronya's system has been compromised by a virus called 'Enthusiasm'?"

"Um, Bronya, thank you," Wendy said gratefully.

“You’re welcome. It’s what Bronya should do. Also, Wendy, did you see the armor on Bronya’s legs? It’s because of Bronya’s past. During an experiment, Bronya injured both her legs and spent a long time in a wheelchair. Later, she regained her ability to walk thanks to this exoskeleton armor.”

"Wow, Bronya, are you saying that Wendy will recover someday?"

"That's for sure, Wendy will definitely recover," Zhang Qing said earnestly.

"Hmm, but are we really not going to worry about Qiao Ge?" Wendy asked, looking at the figure silently carrying the wheelchair behind the group.

"Oh, no need, just consider it exercise for him," Menmo said.

Upon hearing this, Long Qiao, who was standing behind, had a vein bulge on her forehead. "Damn it! Not only do they not help, but they also make sarcastic remarks. They deserve to die!"

Only the world where Ryuu-soo is injured has been achieved...
