Bronya, Wendy, and the others also looked up at the boy, their eyes filled with a dazed expression, as if their worldviews were about to collapse.
Among the crowd, only Fu Hua remained somewhat calm, but the immortal's fists were also clenched tightly, and his body trembled uncontrollably.
"It's already come to this point, and you still don't intend to accept reality?"
Seeing the girls' reactions, Shi Hen's lips curled into a wider smile. "Or... would you be more familiar with this voice?"
As he spoke, Shihen's voice suddenly became low and hoarse, and his short black hair grew longer and turned white, which was the usual form of [Walter White].
boom--
An endless burst of lightning erupted, and Mei's expression finally darkened completely.
Although the boy had not yet put on his signature pure white mask, the changes in his voice and hair were enough to explain everything.
Just like what's right in front of them now, the formidable enemy [Walter White] who has been almost their nightmare for a long time is none other than Shihen, who has always been by their side and even once gave his life for them!
"Why! Why you!?"
Looking at the boy who had finally revealed his true colors, Kiana almost collapsed as she questioned him, tears streaming down her face and blurring her vision.
From their first encounter in Sicily, she placed a great deal of trust in the boy.
Especially after they joined forces at St. Freya and became partners, she came to regard her partner as someone more important than her own life in their daily interactions.
During the battle at the Destiny Headquarters, she felt immense guilt for causing the death of the boy, and for a long time she remained consumed by remorse and regret.
So after regaining this relationship, she cherished and protected the boy even more, vowing to do everything in her power to protect him.
Whether facing the power of Walter White or the doubts raised by Otto, she never wavered in the slightest.
Because she truly believed that the boy was the least likely person in the world to betray or deceive her.
But now...
Kiana wiped away her tears to clear her vision, but the image of the boy in her heart became increasingly blurred.
"If I said I also had my reasons, would you believe me?"
Shihen asked with a smile.
Kiana simply stared at the boy with red-rimmed eyes, her teeth clenched tightly around her lips without relaxing her grip.
"Stop joking around! You've been using sweet talk to fool us and betray our trust, you, you..."
She gritted her teeth and said, the resentment in Mei's eyes growing stronger, as if she would draw her sword at the boy at any moment.
Her feelings for the boy have always been no less than Kiana's.
But now that the other party has taken off his mask, the deeper her love for the boy was, the stronger her hatred for him is now.
Just thinking about the fact that she had once loved the boy Huai Rui made her want to tear this bastard who killed her father and committed countless crimes to shreds and grind him into dust, leaving not a single intact molecule behind!
"No, it's not that I deceived you. I never intended to deceive anyone from the beginning. It's just that none of you have ever understood me."
Shaking his head gently, Shihen sighed with regret, "All along, you have believed in my commitment to love and justice, and have longed for it."
However, longing is the emotion furthest from understanding.
From beginning to end, the "me" you perceive has never existed; you've simply arbitrarily attached these feelings to me.
"What on earth do you want to do!?"
Unable to contain herself, Yulandel gritted her teeth and demanded angrily.
"Didn't I tell you from the beginning what I wanted to do?"
With a light laugh, Shihen brushed his hair back with one hand on his forehead, saying, "Whether it's humans or the Honkai, nothing should ever be high above the sky."
But today, the war between humanity and the Honkai, which has lasted for countless cycles, is about to come to an end, and the vacancy of the throne of heaven should also come to a close.
From this day forward, I will stand eternally in the sky as the sole deity of this world!

"To become...a god?"
Upon hearing this, Kiana was stunned.
"Yes, to become a god."
Nodding slightly, Shihen's lips curled up slightly, "Haven't you noticed? Whether it's our current cycle or previous civilizations, humanity is always repeating the same mistake."
Selfishness, greed, jealousy, arrogance... Humans are always like this, never reflecting on their own actions.
Therefore, I will become the only god in this world, establishing unified rules and order for humanity, and granting everyone eternal and lasting happiness.
I will bury all darkness, and a pure white future is about to begin.
Bearing the light and darkness of the entire world on his own shoulders—that's the Walter I envision!
"But that's impossible! No matter what method you use, humanity will never become a toy in your hands!"
Durandal retorted firmly.
She has always fought against the Honkai in a human way, and now she has become the Herrscher of Origin. She knows very well what kind of powerful force is contained in the human will.
Even if she and Kiana fail, allowing the boy to forcibly impose a reign of terror on humanity and establish laws that everyone must abide by, there will certainly be those who are unwilling to accept this and raise the banner of rebellion.
Hundreds of years, thousands of years, tens of thousands of years... as long as human civilization continues, this pursuit of freedom and resistance will never cease!
"No, it's possible. I can do that with the help of the Stigmata Project."
Shihen chuckled, his face full of confidence, "You've all witnessed the power of the Sacred Mark Project, haven't you? With its help, I can quietly change the thoughts of all humanity, thereby eliminating the malignant tumors in human consciousness and leaving only the good and beautiful side."
"you……"
Realizing the terrifying nature of the boy's intentions in an instant, Durandal couldn't help but feel furious, and her body began to tremble uncontrollably.
As she broke through the dream created by the Stigmata Project, she clearly felt her will spreading along the dream, thereby prompting more people to wake up from the dream.
And naturally, since her belief in moving forward could be transmitted through dreams, the consciousness modification that the boy mentioned was also feasible.
Although for her, using the Stigmata Project as a brainwashing machine was still almost a fantasy.
But... the one who said those words was Shi Hen.
Just thinking about all the miracles the other party had created under the identity of [Walter White] made her stop believing it was a lie.
"As the price for allowing humanity to be reborn, I will destroy everything related to Honkai. Whether it's Stigmata or Herrschers, I will eliminate all the roots of chaos in the world, thereby creating a brand new world for humanity."
Shihen smiled and said, his gaze toward the group of girls turning disdainful, "In other words, you will all die."
"Are you kidding me? Hen, you actually said you were going to kill us, you must be joking, right?"
Seeing the boy's suddenly unfamiliar expression, Kiana hurriedly shook her head, trying to deny this unacceptable reality.
"Kiana..."
Seeing the girl who seemed to be on the verge of collapse, Yulan Delon felt extremely heartbroken.
Having witnessed Kiana's happy moments with the boy and knowing her consistent optimism and positivity, she never imagined that this girl would show such a vulnerable expression.
It's like a vase full of cracks; just a little more external force is needed to shatter it completely.
Thinking of this, Durandal's anger towards someone intensified.
"Kiana, Hen... Shihen, he is no longer the person we knew."
Mei, standing nearby, couldn't help but speak up to offer some advice.
Although she had long regarded Kiana as her greatest enemy and rival, she also considered the girl her closest friend and naturally did not want to see her so heartbroken because of someone's betrayal.
"No, no way! This must all be fake! Hen must be playing a joke on us..."
Kiana stubbornly shook her head in denial, her eyes filled with hope as she looked at the boy, as if he would then reject everything and allow their relationship to return to what it was before.
"Hahaha~"
Looking at the white fluffy ball, Shihen couldn't help but chuckle, "Kiana, even at a time like this, you are still so innocent and cute, which really makes me happy."
As soon as he finished speaking, Shihen's body instantly shifted from stillness to movement, and in a flash he was in front of Kiana. His right palm gently touched the girl's abdomen like a leaf falling in the wind.
"Since that's the case, then die with this naivety in your heart."
He spoke softly, then suddenly unleashed a burst of power from his right hand.
boom--
As if struck head-on by a speeding warship, Kiana coughed up a mouthful of blood and her body contorted violently as she flew backward, leaving an invisible trail on the moon's surface.
"Kiana!"
She couldn't help but cry out in surprise, and immediately thrust her spear at the boy, "You've gone too far, Bai!"
As she spoke, Durandal's armor transformed into a celestial form, with a layer of golden light symbolizing a star anchor added to it, as if a golden feather robe had been added to the girl.
With the combined power of Tianyuan and Xingmao, this is the strongest form that the Princess Knight can display.
Before obtaining the primordial power, this form was still quite unstable, requiring the girl to be extremely careful in maintaining the fragile balance between imaginary numbers and quantum mechanics.
But now, Durandal felt that this power was incredibly stable, as if she had used it in hundreds of intense battles. Every surge of energy was as smooth as her own arm, without the slightest stagnation.
This time, she might really... no, she absolutely has to win!
With unwavering resolve, Durandal's lance shone with a star-like brilliance.
"I will never let you get away with this, Shihen!"
Shouting angrily, Mei drew her sword without hesitation towards the boy she had once trusted so much.
In an instant, brilliant purple lightning and golden starlight shone together, and both girls used their full strength without holding back, all to bring the fallen boy to justice.
when!
With his hands turning the color of frost, Shihen blocked both the lance and the katana simultaneously, a relaxed smile on his face.
"Don't make harsh statements too early, or you'll only appear weak."
He spoke softly, a slight smile playing on his lips, "Moreover, I am now the strongest person in this world."
As soon as he finished speaking, Shihen's aura was finally released without any concealment.
……
Earth, World Serpent Headquarters.
They made their way into the base almost without any trouble, but Theresa's expression was not relaxed or carefree at all; instead, it became increasingly serious.
She never hesitated to speculate about a certain White Mask in the most malicious way, and she absolutely did not believe that the other party would let her rescue Siegfried so easily.
Who knows, the other side might have set up some kind of trap deep inside the base, waiting for her to step into it.
Despite growing increasingly worried and fearful, Theresa did not turn and run away, but instead chose to continue deeper into the territory.
Even knowing that what lay ahead might be a perilous journey, how could she possibly desert her post and do nothing while Kiana and the boy were fighting desperately?
Even if her actions might not be very meaningful, she didn't want the boy and the others to fail because Siegfried was taken hostage by Walter White.
The mere thought of this possibility made it impossible for her to remain calm and patient.
only……
Theresa glanced at the Houmu sign on the wall, then looked at the door in front of her bearing the Kaslana family crest, and her lips twitched involuntarily.
Even if she genuinely wanted to rescue Siegfried as soon as possible, this blatant attempt to cover up her true intentions was far too simplistic and low-level.
As the dignified headmistress of St. Freya Academy and the former leader of the Far East branch, would she fall into such a trap?
As she was thinking, Theresa lifted Judas high and then slammed him down on the door in front of her.
boom--
Unsurprisingly, the steel gate shattered like a broken plank, and then...
Seeing the three burly men, their clothes disheveled and tangled together, Theresa was immediately stunned. Her face flushed red, and steam billowed from the top of her head.
"Siegfried, you pervert!"
With a startled cry, Theresa forgot all about Judas and turned to flee without hesitation.
She felt her brain would be fried if she looked at such an eye-searing scene for even a second longer.
"Theresa?"
Seeing the older loli appear and disappear, and then looking at his own, Raiden Ryoma's, and Welt's positions, Siegfried belatedly realized what had happened.
