Starting from the Collapse World, I became the behind-the-scenes boss

Moreover, I hate it when people say that word.

As he spoke, Shihen's baseball bat grew larger and slammed forward, pressing down on Alahato's shoulder like a mountain, instantly forcing him to kneel on the ground, unable to move.

How could a young boy who had just awakened his Stigmata, along with a nearly destroyed Arahato, possibly defeat the villainous boss, Welt White?

While suppressing Arahato, Shihen waved his left hand, manifesting a silver-white palm in the air, which grabbed Mei's neck and lifted the girl into the air.

"You...demon..."

Mei pounded her fists against the silver-white hands in front of her, her eyes wide and bulging, staring fiercely at the white-haired man in front of her with a look that seemed to want to devour someone.

This humiliating way of being choked reminded the girl of the night the other person killed Raiden Ryoma.

why?

Even though she has already obtained the power of a Herrscher, why can't she kill this white-haired demon?!

Struggling desperately, Mei once again hated her own powerlessness.

"Raiden Mei, do you know why you're so weak?"

Shihen asked softly.

"I will definitely... kill you..."

But Mei just stared intently at the white-haired man.

Not expecting an answer from the girl, Time Trace lifted his bat, releasing his pressure on Arahato, and then sighed, "That's because your hatred isn't enough..."

As soon as he finished speaking, Shihen slammed the baseball bat down in his hand.

Swish!

Despite its massive size, the baseball bat fell like a peerless sword, severing Alahato's left arm without any resistance.

And following closely behind were the right hand, the head, the legs... In the blink of an eye, only the torso of the entire Alahato remained suspended in the air.

The speed at which Shihen dismantled the mecha was so fast that even gravity hadn't had time to pull Alahato's torso back to the ground.

"No, don't... stop..."

As if sensing what the other party was about to do, Mei shouted with all her might, her body crackling with electricity, and her eyes flashing red light as if something was struggling to break free.

"Hate your own weakness, Raiden Mei."

He announced softly, raising the Time-Traces baseball bat high before slamming it down heavily on the falling mech's torso.

boom!

Like a baseball being hit, the surface of the mecha's torso dented slightly, and it shot out and landed on the distant valley cliff, where it was then... entangled and wrapped by countless vines that sprouted from it.

Seeing this, Mei finally breathed a sigh of relief, and her body went limp as if she had lost all her strength and fell into a coma. Her purple armor turned back into her Senba Academy school uniform and was soaked by the falling rain.

As expected, it still fell short by a little.

Looking at the black-haired girl who had lost consciousness, Shihen couldn't help but shake his head. His gaze then turned to the tall vines that were sprouting in the distance, and... the blonde girl standing in front of the vines.

Beneath the mask, the boy's lips curled into a slight smile: "I've been waiting for you for a long time, Durandal."

Chapter 151 Durandal is not good with words

Without a word, Durandal simply bent her knees slightly with a cold expression, and as she suddenly exerted force with her feet, her Moon Soul Armor also emitted a large number of high-energy particles, allowing the girl to instantly travel hundreds of meters like a blazing blue meteor and throw a punch straight at the white-haired man.

Well, although in the original timeline, Shining Knight: Moonbeam won't appear until next year, the rise of a certain Anti-Entropy Alliance leader has clearly put considerable pressure on Bishop Otto.

I just don't know if the other person has lost hair.

With these thoughts in mind, Shihen crossed his arms to block in front of him, and a white flower barrier immediately opened.

boom--

The white flower barrier, which could withstand several attacks from the Herrscher of Thunder, couldn't even last half a second in front of Durandal before being smashed to pieces. The girl's fist landed on Shihen's arm with undiminished force.

boom!

A deafening roar rang out, and the terrifying shockwave spread out in an instant, tearing and shattering everything around it.

In an instant, a crater over a hundred meters in diameter appeared on the ground, and even Mei was thrown out and was wrapped and protected by several vines.

Although she did not receive the Kaslana family education, Durandal's kindness and passion are no less than any of Kaslana's.

"To actually have the mind to protect a Herrscher, is this how the Valkyrie of Destiny behaves?"

With a kick, Shihen pushed Durandal back a little distance and asked with a smile.

"Why!?" While controlling the vines formed from the Black Abyss White Flowers to bring Mei away and clear out a few nearby Honkai Beasts, Durandal shouted at Shihen, "Why did you do such a thing!?"

The girl's face was filled with pain, and her blue eyes were filled with disbelief, as if she were seeing an old friend she hadn't seen in a long time who had gone astray.

She arrived nearby quite early and had been observing the battlefield the whole time.

When she saw Welt White jump out to fight the Third Herrscher, she did not choose to interfere, because the girl believed that the other party had the power to defeat the Herrscher.

But when Durandal saw that Walter White was trying to provoke the Third Herrscher by killing the pilot of that giant mech, she could no longer sit still.

She couldn't bear to watch an innocent person die in front of her.

If given the chance, she even wanted to open the cockpit and treat the anti-entropy warrior, because the girl could feel that the Honkai energy reaction coming from inside the mecha was already quite weak.

But with her formidable foe, Walter White, right in front of her, he clearly wouldn't give her that time.

"What is it? Trying to create a Herrscher?" Shihen asked with a smile, while spreading his hands in a rather helpless tone, "Durandal, have you ever heard of the term 'double standard'?"

"..."

The girl frowned, her face showing confusion.

“Speaking of triggering the Honkai, the actions of that bishop of your Schicksal were far more heinous than mine,” Shihen explained, his tone full of sarcasm. “In the fourteenth year, my predecessor… that is, Welt Yang, the man who passed on the Welt name and the position of leader of the Anti-Entropy Alliance to me, almost ended the Second Honkai.”

If it weren't for your bishop interfering...

Your bishop has indirectly caused the deaths of hundreds of millions of people!

"you are lying!"

Durandal retorted, frowning.

She didn't believe a single word about Walter's legacy or the other party's slander against Bishop Otto.

“You’re too naive, young Valkyrie.” Shihen shook his head slightly. “If it weren’t for that, why do you think the previous generation’s S-class Valkyrie Cecilia died? And why did Siegfried, the head of the Kaslana family, defect?”

Even…why were there five Herrscher Cores after the Herrscher of the Void died?

"Lady Cecilia bravely sacrificed herself to fight against the Herrscher of the Void, while Siegfried couldn't bear the blow and blamed it all on fate, and the Herrscher of the Void..." Durandal paused, "No, the Herrscher of the Void's core was clearly only broken into four pieces!"

Well, let's leave aside the truth for now.

But at least in the records of destiny, it is indeed as the girl said.

"Conquer the Gem, Plague the Gem, Tranquility the Gem, Desire the Gem."

This is the core belonging to the Herrscher of the Void in the Destiny Records, but..." As he spoke softly, the smile in Shihen's tone grew stronger, "Durandal, have you ever thought about where the core symbolizing the authority of the Herrscher of the Void has gone?"

Do you really think the Herrscher Core is something that breaks down easily?

The stage behind the scenes in this world is too small, so the boy will never allow anyone to be like him.

There's only one mastermind behind the scenes.

"..." Frowning in thought, a few strands of confusion flashed in Durandal's eyes. After a long while, she raised her head again and her gaze became firm again. "No matter what, this is not a reason for you to act recklessly."

The girl's trust in Otto was not something that could be shaken by a few words.

To think that you can turn Durandal against you with just a few words is to seriously underestimate the will of this strongest Valkyrie.

Unless Otto himself turns against them, Durandal is almost certainly not going to be hostile to them.

Otto was quite adept at manipulating people's hearts.

Not disappointed by the result, Shihen gently shook his head and asked, "I was just curious about the power of the Herrschers, is there anything wrong with that?"

"...Nonsense!"

With a cold shout, Durandal chose to throw a punch directly at the man in front of her.

During their first encounter, the girl realized that she couldn't win an argument with her opponent.

So just communicate in the way you're best at.

"If you want to fight, come with me. Let me see how much you've improved in the past year."

After uttering those words, Shihen's figure soared into the sky.

This valley is barely adequate for fighting Mei.

But if they want to fight Durandal, the sky is the only battlefield that truly suits them.

I just hope that the Luna Armor, which Destiny rushed out with all their might, won't have any quality issues.

What if the levitation device breaks down halfway through the fight... Well, after all, there's still the Black Abyss White Flower, so Durandal shouldn't have any problem with falling and getting injured.

In an instant, two streaks of light, one silver and one blue, rose into the sky, causing the thick, dark clouds that had been blotting out the sun to disperse, and the torrential rain that had suddenly started due to the arrival of the Herrscher of Thunder gradually began to subside.

On the other side of the valley, the three little ones were gradually consolidating their position with the help of several Titan mechs that Anti-Entropy had airdropped.

"Is the rain getting lighter?"

Wielding her scythe, Seele sliced ​​a tank-class Honkai Beast in two. She was somewhat surprised by the slight drizzle, but also felt a sense of relief.

Although Anti-Entropy's specially designed combat suit is waterproof, fighting in heavy rain is still uncomfortable.

"Walter's opponent has also changed."

Bronya pointed to the patches of dark clouds spreading across the sky and explained.

Even during the battle with the Honkai Beasts, she kept an eye on the distant battlefield.

The thunder had stopped several minutes earlier.

"That Mei-kun..."

Suddenly realizing something, Seele's face turned pale.

“Over there.” Bronya pointed in a direction. “The captain seems to be there too.”

The magnetic field generated by the Herrscher of Thunder severely interfered with communications, so she could only observe with the naked eye.

"Then let's hurry over there."

Xing grinned as she flicked the black sword that resembled a pointer in her hand.

Although she doesn't like taking risks, she can't just leave Mei and Shihen alone.

They quickly reached an agreement, and the three began to move under the cover of the Titan mech.

As for the white fluffy ball... after Seele's emergency treatment, the girl is fast asleep in the cockpit of a Titan mech.

Chapter 152 Durandal and the Heavenly Origin Boy

boom!

As Shihen and Durandal's fists clashed once more, a surge of energy spread out, clearing away the dark clouds beneath their feet.

"It's such an unreasonable force that it reminds me of a friend of Kaslana."

Feeling the immense force transmitted through the girl's fist, Shihen couldn't help but sigh.

Even though he can now easily defeat a Herrscher, he is still a notch above Durandalson in terms of strength.

Yes, this refers to the power enhanced by Honkai energy.

If we only compare physical attributes, he is far inferior.

Compared to physical strength, the boy's strength lies in his control of Honkai energy.

"who is it?"

While maintaining her physical offensive, Durandal asked a question.

Even though she knew the other party was lying, the girl was still unwilling to let go of this opportunity to obtain information.
