Original God: Using a vest knife to make players and game characters cry

But Ruola clearly already…

"Stop! Stop right now!"

Diluc shouted this, and Luminous and Yura immediately stopped what they were doing. They recognized that attack, especially Luminous, who knew it was Yura's move because she had been on adventures with her before.

Nora stopped too, and slowly pulled out the arrows stuck in her body, letting out a muffled groan with each one she pulled out.

Diluc stepped forward: "Who are you?!"

Diluc stared intently at Nora beneath the black robe, wanting to see more of her face.

Unfortunately, the black robe was too large, and he couldn't see a single part of it.

Nora remained silent. Diluc took a step forward, and she took a step back, pointing her spear at him as if warning him not to come any closer.

"You're Nora?!"

Diluc was somewhat agitated. He walked step by step toward Zora, sheathing his greatsword.

Diluc's move was undoubtedly risky, but he trusted his judgment. Even if the man in black robes in front of him wasn't Nora, he must have some connection to her.

Paimon: "How could she possibly be Nora?! Diluc, watch out!"

Yura and the others quickly approached Nora and Diluc, gripping their weapons tightly, ready to deal with any sudden attack from the black-robed men.

Ying was completely relieved after seeing Wendy. With Wendy around, the man in black could no longer cause any trouble.

As Diluc drew closer and closer, almost running into her gun, Nora pulled it back.

She thought for a moment, then slowly removed the large hood from her black robe, finally revealing her true face to everyone.

Beneath the black robe, Nora's face was pale, her pupils were pitch black. She was still the same person, but her entire demeanor had changed a lot, and she no longer gave people the feeling of warmth she once did.

Upon seeing Nora, Diluc felt as if he had been electrocuted, his body stiffening and unable to move.

His pupils dilated suddenly, his mind went blank for a moment, and his thoughts were disrupted.

"Ruola...is it really you..."

……

The world of players.

【Nora!!!】

[How could it be Nora? Isn't Nora already dead?!]

So we were just fighting with Nora, and we beat her up so badly?

[I remember the Abyss devoured over 90% of Nora's soul. Could it be that her soul returned and took over her body?!]

[Has the body not decomposed yet?!]

Is this still the Nora we know?

……

Ying: "Nora? How could that be?!"

Amber had already lowered her bow and arrow, her heart filled with turbulent waves. How could it be Nora?

So she wasn't just...

Rosalia: "Are you really Nora?"

Paimon looked at Wendy, wanting to ask for his opinion.

Wendy simply stared at Nora, her mind filled with doubt. Nora seemed to be Nora, but... the abyssal aura emanating from her was so intense, she couldn't possibly be Nora.

Nora's soul has completely departed; the part that belonged to her emotions is gone.

Even if the soul of the person in front of me once truly belonged to Nora, she is no longer Nora.

Seeing that her simple appearance had stunned everyone, Nora suddenly tilted her head and looked at Diluc: "Brother, brother~"

Just as Wendy had made up her mind, Nora called out "brother" to Diluc.

Nora's voice was a little hoarse, as if it hadn't been spoken for a long time, but... it was definitely Nora's voice.

Diluc, who had always believed that the person in front of him was his sister, completely broke down after hearing her call him "brother." Tears streamed down his face, and he could no longer suppress his grief. He rushed forward and hugged Nora tightly.

"Nora, it really is you! Are you alright?"

Nora pushed Diluc away, took a few steps back, and slowly took off the black robe she was wearing.

Upon seeing Nora's current attire and the knife wound on her chest, Yura and Rosalia no longer held back, put down their weapons, and walked towards Nora.

"Yura... Rosalia, and Amber... Luminous... Paimon..."

Nora called out their names one by one, and with each name she called out, one person became completely convinced that she was Nora.

Diluc saw the wounds on Nora's body, many of which were caused by them just now. Thick black blood was still flowing from the arrow wound on Nora's right hand.

He felt so heartbroken he could hardly breathe, and wanted to go over and hug his sister tightly again.

Wendy noticed that Nora hadn't put down or put away the spear in her hand, but seeing Diluc and the others' behavior, he didn't immediately expose their lie.

In any case, with him around, the other party can't play any tricks.

Nora knew Wendy was there and knew she couldn't escape, so when the group approached, she suddenly sprang up and thrust her spear at Diluc's throat in the instant they were off guard.

The spear stopped a finger's width from Diluc's throat, and no matter how hard Nora tried, she couldn't move it forward an inch.

Diluc stood frozen in place, the light in his eyes quickly fading.

She was not Ruola after all; Ruola would never lay a hand on her…

Wendy stopped watching from behind, restrained Nora's body, and slowly walked forward.

"She is not Nora, she comes from the abyss."

Ying's eyes were filled with disappointment; she had thought Ruola had returned...

After the initial despair came extreme anger. Ying gritted her teeth; she would not allow the Abyss to exploit the remains of her deceased friend.

"Heh, as expected of the Wind God, I didn't lie to you!"

Nora looked at Wendy indifferently, her face full of provocation.

Everyone thought she was now directly occupying Nora's body, so they probably wouldn't attack her at this time.

"You bastard, get out of my sister's body!"

Diluc's eyes were bloodshot as he roared at Nora.

Nora: "Why? This is my body too! Nora and I were originally one, I am also her soul. We were forcibly separated back then, are you going to separate us again?!"

Nora's words startled the enraged Diluc once again.

Wendy spoke up at the right moment: "Don't be fooled by her. The Abyss only absorbs the energy of Nora's soul. Nora's emotions are something they don't need. She has completely left this world, so there's no need to worry about her."

Nora glared at Wendy with hatred: "You bastard!"

Ying: "Shut up, you monstrous creature of the abyss, get out of Nora's body!"

Nora clicked her tongue: "How can I explain this? We only killed Nora because we had no other choice. We only came to take her body away now. It's one thing if you don't understand, but you actually chased me all the way here and insisted on fighting against the Abyss."

“You may not have Nora, but you still have me. I can be just like Nora, your partner and your sister. Isn’t that great?”

The fluorescent red temperature is completely gone!

Chapter 150: One More Enemy from the Abyss

……

The world of players.

Since miHoYo has never released a Honkai series game in this world, players are unaware that a bishop once said this. (Mainly because the author hasn't played it, hehe~)

However, it is undeniable that this statement is indeed very hateful.

Chen Xiyao was so angry she wanted to jump into the screen and drag the guy hiding inside Ruola's body out and beat him to death.

【Aaaaaah, I'm going to explode!】

【What are you saying?! What kind of talk is that?!】

[Don't say things like that while wearing Nora's face! Waaaa, my Nora is one and only, no one can replace her!]

[Damn it, it's possessing Nora's body, and the main characters have absolutely no way to harm it!]

Wendy should be able to find this guy, right?

I don't think so. If Wendy could, would she need to listen to so much of her?

Look how angry my Yingbao is!

……

Mond.

"Shut up! You think you're worthy to replace Nora? You're not worthy! You heartless abyssal worm, what are you to be worthy of replacing Nora?!"

Ying pointed her endless sharpness at Ruola, her emotions running high, her eyes filled with hatred.

Ying's words were sharp and sarcastic. Nora, upon hearing them, grinned, her laughter laced with irony.

"Heh heh heh heh, I'm not worthy? If I'm not worthy, then who is? This is my body too!?"

“We are one, we were originally one person. Do you know how painful it was when our souls were taken away by the abyss and devoured by them? Did I want to be tainted by the abyss?”

"Why can she be brought back and sent to the afterlife, while I can only continue to suffer in the abyss? Why?!"

"I just want to use this body to escape the control of the abyss, is that not allowed?"

Nora's long string of words left everyone speechless, even Ying, who had just gone berserk, was momentarily speechless.

Amber lowered her head and let out soft sobs.

Yura and Rosalia were filled with shock.

They didn't know about Nora's soul; they only knew that Nora was killed by the abyss and, after some time, with the help of the wind god, was able to return to the world to say goodbye to her companions.

I never expected something like this to happen!

Nora's soul was taken and devoured by the abyss, and was she ultimately saved by the Wind God...?

Even strong women like Yura and Rosalia had tears welling up in their eyes. Did Jora suffer such pain after her sacrifice?

The pain of having one's soul devoured—could that idiot of hers bear it?

Diluc's eyes were fixed on the collapsing Nora before him. He felt his mind was in turmoil and didn't know what to do.

He should have hated her, but after hearing what she just said, Diluc softened.

Is this guy really Nora?

……

In the live broadcast room.

Nora's words silenced a large number of people, and the comments shouting to kill her disappeared.

She is Nora's soul, swallowed by the abyss...

If she were also Nora, then, as she said, all of this would indeed be incredibly unfair to her.

[Yeah, that's bullshit. Didn't Wendy say that Nora's feelings had returned? This guy is probably just a prankster from the Abyss!]

Although... I think I can't bring myself to do it to her.

【…】

……

Wendy knew that the person in front of him was not Nora, nor did he have Nora's feelings, but when he heard her say such things, he still fell silent.

Nora continued, "Is sending me back to the abyss to continue suffering, letting this corpse rot underground, the result you want to see?"

Answer me, Barbatos!

As soon as Laura said this, Amber, Yura, and Rosalia all turned to look at Wendy.

Wendy hasn't revealed her true identity yet in front of these people.

So he was...the wind god...Barbatos?
