Mei is helpless in this situation as HoV approaches her and starts to arm her subspace lance barrage toward her location.

Mei: Kiana...

But suddenly chains appeared and pierced through the black holes which disabled the attack. Theresa appears in front of Mei with the Oath of Judah opened and armed.

Theresa: Mei, are you alright?

Mei: Principal?

Theresa: Great, I managed to catch up. *calls Einstein* Professor, I've met up with Mei. But Kiana...

Einstein: High Honkai energy readings have been detected in Kiana's body. We're getting a reading of 4458 HW. Is this reader broken?

Theresa: Where's your mech unit?

Einstein: I have not received signals from any of the 67 mech units of the Vanguard. I would assume that's what happened to them from the visuals we saw and what she did to them easily.

Einstein can see from their side that Honkai Beasts are starting to board the ship.

Einstein: The number of hostiles is still increasing. Many are joining the battlefield as we speak. The situation is not looking good for our side.

Theresa decided to heat things by changing the Oath of Judah's look and powering it up as she picked up the spear from the cross and pointed it at HoV.

Theresa: I've no choice but to bet on this...! We have a chance of winning if we can stir Kiana's sense of self.

Mei gets up as Theresa gives her a nod and Mei gives hers too. They then decide to chase after her but they are being blocked by Honkai Beasts that she summoned.

Theresa: The Herrscher has disappeared!: Stay alert! She could attack at any moment!

She uses the chain to hold them down for Mei to deal the killing blow and Theresa uses her spear to double up the damage Mei is dealing towards them. As the Honkai beasts disintegrate, a thunderstorm looms over them Mei knows what is happening.

Mei: Watch out! These are lightning attacks from that Honkai dragon!

They dodge the dragon's attacks as more Honkai beasts start to approach them. All the while the Hyperion are busy fending off the Honkai Beasts from the Hyperion

Operator: Report! Theresa and Mei Raiden have engaged with the Herrscher. The Honkai beasts have blocked off the battlefield. The mechs cannot provide effective support...! There are too many of them. We'll lose contact with our vanguard if this goes on.

Einstein: 'The situation looks worse than I'd expected... Should I activate the system here? This will give us the edge we need!'

She was thinking of the SELENE system but they only have one try of pulling it off. She shakes her head off knowing the risk if they fail.

Einstein: 'No... The system can only be used once... Now is not yet the time. I must wait for a better opportunity...'

The elevator to the bridge opened while Einstein was deep in her thoughts. A girl walked out slowly from the lift. Einstein frowned when she saw her.

Einstein: ...You're awake?

???: I'm going...

Einstein: What?

???: Take me to where Mei and Theresa are...

Einstein: This is suicidal, miss.

???: Perhaps... but the power bestowed on me and my namesake has finally held the meaning of what I should've been doing.

Einstein: ...It seems you've made up your mind. Allow me to give you a piece of advice.

???: What is it?

Einstein: Take this weapon. You'll need it.

???: ...Thank you.

Einstein: Don't mention it. Just don't forget to bring it back to me when you're done.

The Professor's eyes betrayed a hint of sorrow when she handed over the weapon. She watches the figure leave and descend to the hangar from the elevator.

Einstein: Please, try not to lose this.

Meanwhile, Theresa and Mei are getting tired of the endless spawn of Honkai Beasts from HoV. HoV was just looking at them like they were nothing to her.

Theresa: Huff... huff...

Herrscher of the Void: Pathetic vermin. Lowly insects. Fight all you want. You will only make it easier for me. After all this time, you still don't understand, do you? Why do you bar my path, little girl?

Theresa: Shut up! That body does not belong to you!

Herrscher of the Void: Hah. A greedy human made this body as a vessel for me. ---It is an offering for my rebirth!

Mei: 'Her void powers are immense... I can't even get close to her... It's as different as day and night when compared to Wendy and I. This is the true Herrscher powers...'

Herrscher of the Void: Haha... I suppose insects do provide some form of amusement. Your clumsy dance steps make me laugh. Benares, go give them a dance lesson.

Benares: *roar*

Mei: ...! Incoming attack!

Theresa: Mei! Watch out!

The dragon soared into the air. Blazing arcs of electricity and ice spewed from its mouth. But its breath collided with several rounds of pink orbs that suddenly appeared. A blinding explosion. Mei and Theresa looked at the one who launched the energy bombs. A familiar twin-spiral tail girl with a new battle armor and her Project Bunny has changed its colors and weaponry

Bronya: GN Anti-Honkai force field... fully functional. Virtue Armor potential maxed. Operating at maximum output.

(Context of her armor)

Theresa: ...Bronya?!

Mei: Bronya, why are you here?

Bronya: I'm sorry for the wait, Mei and Principal. Looks like I managed to come in time and I've rested for long enough. I'm back for duty. I will provide covering fire. Attack at will, squad!

Theresa: Got it, Bronya!

As Benares descended The squad fell back as Bronya positioned herself far from the dragon. She locks on the target as she positions the GN Bazooka arm and its GN Cannons towards the dragon as the two girls deal continuous damage to it.

Benares: *roars*

Herrscher of the Void: What a disappointing start. No matter, the Queen shall settle this herself. Let's get the actual show started. I'm beginning to tire of this pathetic stage. *conjures black hole*

When Y/n arrived where they were last seen, he saw the hole towards the Imaginary Space closed off. This made him click his tongue in annoyance and contacts Ptolemy.

Y/n: Fuxi, launch the Q suit.

Fuzi: Huh?! But going for that much-

Y/n: Just do it. She's forcing my hand on this, time to give her something that her pride and her self-centeredness would easily be shattered Also make sure every surveillance around here is cut off.

Fuxi: They were already cut off the moment our GN Particles came into contact with their whole network.

Meanwhile, all of the girls in the Lab were sucked into her black hole immediately as they were now inside an Imaginary Space created by Sirin's making.

Mei: The surroundings have changed! Wait... we've been teleported away!

Bronya: We've lost contact with the Hyperion. The Bronya can not triangulate our current location.

Just then HoV appeared in front of them as it suddenly hovers in front of them.

Herrscher of the Void: Time to have the bad people leave, one at a time. We'll start with the girl with the funny hairdo, then the girl with that big cross... Alright, my other half... it's just you and me now. Let us finish our last dance and complete the ritual!

Mei: ...!

Herrscher of the Void: Good. Now let me take a closer look at how insects struggle in vain.

Theresa: Mei, Bronya, maintain formation! Buckle up, girls! We're doing this! You're not gonna win here. We end this right here, right now!

Theresa has now dons her personal Godsbane battlesuit, Blood Knight: Moonlight, to fight Sirin. Theresa begins fighting HoV at close range while Bronya provides cover fire towards Theresa.

As she continues to fight them, HoV can see Theresa slowly getting tired due to the battlesuit taking a toll on her. Theresa didn't know this as the adrenaline in her was still running, causing her to not feel anything at all. As she was about to finish off with her finisher, her body's adrenaline wore off and she was immediately caught by HoV's zero gravity.

Theresa: Gah...

Herrscher of the Void: Got you, baby doll.

Mei: ...Principal Theresa!

The dizzying sense of zero gravity hit Theresa hard. When she regained her senses, Theresa saw her body being launched into the air. An unseen force gripped her neck and her limbs.

Herrscher of the Void: Never expected such a cute little thing to pack so much power.

But then HoV decides to play with their emotions with her own words.

Herrscher of the Void: Your eyes betray emotions of care, love, and plenty of regret.

Theresa: ...!

Herrscher of the Void: Ah, I remember seeing those eyes before I fell asleep. She extended her hand and fantasized about helping me. What a fool. She didn't understand me. She was powerless to save anything just like him. She was a self-righteous idiot who indulged in stupid fairy tales of saving and redeeming others. ----You've hardly changed at all.

Theresa: You ****head... Do you think I didn't know that? That's right... I've known about that already... Ah... hnnggh... But that's... how I catch my foe!

The chains from Oath of Judah suddenly emerged from the floor and chained her up.

Herrscher of the Void: ...!

Theresa: You're finally within firing range!

Herrscher of the Void: Those chains again! Don't you ever give up?

Theresa: That's how I was born and taught by the best, but...

Bronya: It's different this time. Star of Eden! Switch to Level 1 output! All powers to the max!

A powerful gravity wave washed over the Herrscher, driving the anti-Honkai shackles deeper into her body.

Herrscher of the Void: ...!

Theresa: You can't escape! The Oath of Judah... has caught you! I won't let go... even at the cost of my life!

Herrscher of the Void: ...

But the HoV knew better than any of them after the 2nd Eruption, and she learned from her mistakes.

Herrscher of the Void: ...Heh ...Oh really? Do you think that these ancient toys can work on me?

She effortlessly breaks the chains and the gravity without any problem as she wickedly smiled at Bronya

Theresa: ...What?! *chokes* Urk... ugh...

Herrscher of the Void: Do you feel smart? Is victory within sight? Feeling hopeful yet? Exciting dramas tend to have a heart-rending climax. I love those shows. The will to survive, hope for the future, doing anything you can to defend all those that you hold dear. Nothing but pathetic toys before me!

Suddenly, she pulls out a gun that is shaped to her liking and mercilessly drops Theresa towards Bronya and shoots them both at the heart, in shock of Mei.

Herrscher of the Void: Your existence is worthless! Hahahahaha! KYAAHAHAHAHAH!

From the outside world, both ships got something in their scanners..

Yuna: I got something, Ryu! You're not gonna like this!

Operator: Honkai energy spike detected! The wavelength coincides with the Gem of Serenity!

Einstein: Gem of Serenity? No... wait...

Ryu: So it was there all along...

Einstein: -The Gem of Serenity was implanted into Kiana's body to wake the Herrscher!

Ryu: But also, she has become the 2nd coming of Ribbons Almark due to the GN Particle readings in her body. Y/n!

Y/n: I know!

Suddenly something boosted through the group as it flew faster, it broke the sound barrier and made a quantum portal as he went through the portal. But then suddenly the whole place shakes as everyone holds on to their dear lives. Einstein looked at her scanner and saw something that was impossible when she looked back out the window.

Einstein: This reading... *looks at the skies* That's...!

The skies shatter like reality has been connected and shattered as it showed the Imaginary Space the moment HoV mercilessly killed Theresa and Bronya, leaving Mei in despair. HoV puts her gaze towards the distraught Mei.

Herrscher of the Void: Do you want to get this body back and save the girl? You do, right? Is she a loved friend and member of your little family? Did you build sweet little memories together? Made any lasting promises?

She then smiles evilly, not knowing her focus on her has made the realities crack and show where they are due to Y/n's quantum traveling.

Herrscher of the Void: If that's the case, Then I shall kill you all one by one with her hands and her body. Those who love her and are trying to save her shall suffer a most grisly death I shall shatter your beautiful memories and transform them into a hellscape of despair and pain.

Her body is emitting and leaking out Honkai energy readings and GN Particles all in one.

Herrscher of the Void: She will then witness your mangled bodies before I smother her out for good. Family, friends, happiness, dreams, future, and hope. She does not deserve this. She is unworthy of this. She will never get these things! I'll start with you!

Mei: What...!

She was suddenly caught by her gravity powers and took hold of her. Mei can feel her limbs being crushed by her grip

Herrscher of the Void: My dearest Mei, you are the other half of my desires, the burning passion of my soul. Wait no longer. Embrace me! Join your strength with mine!

HoV suddenly starts to forcefully pull out the Gem from her body as she starts to scream in pain and anguish.

Mei: GAAAAAAAAAGH!!!!!

Ryu: Mei!!

Einstein: She's absorbing the Gem of Conquest...!

When it was completely pulled out, she dropped the body of Mei to the ground, leaving behind a massive scar on her chest and she was knocked out. She then places it in her body and her body begins to glow and become something more as her body and clothing change drastically. Her wings have been merged and formed a wing that glows GN particles and her body has been covered in various E-Carbon armor and all around her face has been made something out of the Gundam 00 ELS Qan[T].

Herrscher of the Void: KYAAAHAHAHAHAH! This thunderclap is music to my ears! Come, offer yourself up to your God! We hereby declare Judgment Day!

Suddenly she started to rain down her judgment with Subspace Lances, windstorms, and arcs of electricity towards the corpses of Mei, Theresa, and Bronya.

Herrscher of the Void: Are you ready to accept your fate? Oh, you can't? Because I have snuffed out your last "hopes" out of your bodies along with your life. HEHEHE! HAHAHAHAHAHA!

She then notices the reality cracked open seeing the two ships waiting in front of the cracked fabrics of time. But then she senses another presence entering the space.

Herrscher of the Void: Oh... another annoying-!

But before she could say her sentence she was immediately struck by multiple green blades that were flying towards her and slashing her so fast she couldn't even read them.

Herrscher of Void: Who dares stand against the Queen?!

(Gundam 00 Decisive Battle ost plays)

https://youtu.be/MOJpYcOVnWg

To add insult to her injury and answer her question she suddenly saw from behind the smoke multiple lights. Then it shows out of the smoke, the attacks she sends down toward the girls.

Herrscher of Void: Who are you?! Show yourself, you insect!

She then saw the blades return to the smoke as she dodged some of them but one of them struck her face and created a scar to her jawbone. She then looked behind the smoke the floating green blades hovering around the girls and black holes opened. A figure comes out of the black hole and shows himself in front of the Queen.

Y/n: Still prideful as always, but still cannot overwhelm the true nature of the power she possesses now.

It was Y/n Seiei, in his 00 Qan[T] battlesuit, the blades returning to his shield. The 00 Qan[T] battlesuit has the same system and weaponry as the original 00 Qan[T]. The iconic GN Sword V along with its iconic GN Sword Bits and the Trans-Am Stigmata system implanted. Bronya finally woke up and saw him, facing off against HoV.

Bronya: Captain...

Y/n: I'll take care of the rest, you guys stay on the ship.

Y/n flicks his hand as the black hole suddenly devours them whole and HoV is infuriated seeing him copy her power.

Herrscher of Void: You worms are not allowed to leave!

She sends out arcs of electricity through the portal and it goes through but instead of hitting the girls, a portal suddenly opens up above her and it strikes her instead. He then pointed the sword at her.

Y/n: Round 3, second-grade goddess.

Herrscher of Void: You disgusting insect!

She then fires everything she has at him but then he uses the Sword Bits and twirls it around him with his sword as it protects him from the lightning arcs striking at him and then uses his Herrscher powers to wield the wind storms she sends out and sucks all Subspace Lances through it and throws them all back at her. She is frustrated as she shouts to send all the attacks away at her.

She huffed her breath due to how it was exhausting for her to use that move, but suddenly a GN Particle went by her she looked behind but found nothing there and when she looked down, she was met by his calm composure and she blocked a powerful attack that sent her way back. She then uses her Void powers to create matter and crush him underneath it but he is too fast, even without the Trans-Am. She then starts to feel something she never experienced before.

Herrscher of Void: 'Why do I feel... exhausted... Why am I feeling pain when facing this insect!?' Damn you!

Y/n: Pretty good for copying Gundam but you can never and ever will be a Gundam because you have practiced the acts of war in this world.

He then disarms her by piercing the guns before they explode shocking her but also angering her even more. He follows up with another attack and she blocks it. But he smiled as he turned it into its rifle form and fired directly at her face.

She wipes it off and tries to explode him by surrounding him with her own Subspace Lances and detonating them close to him. But he notices this as he warps them all with his power and warps it back to her and she is shocked once again as she sees them and it explodes straight to her body and face.

Herrscher of Void: I'll tear you apart limb by limb and bathe this world with your blood!!

Y/n: Funny, this world was already bathed by my blood! Including you!

Herrscher of Void: You are nothing but a damn cheating faker! You cannot destroy a God!!

Y/n: Oh? So why do you feel tired already and annoyed? Perhaps you are like a spoiled kid when it doesn't give what it wants, starts to lash out and say anything that thinks it is highly mighty of itself?

Herrscher of Void: 'He can read my thoughts too? Why?!'

Y/n: 'Yes, I can read your mind. Oh, by the way, I'm gonna tell you something that will make you piss off... I'm still holding back.'

She was eyes widen at this revelation and adding to the injury, he tells her the percentage of the strength he's using while he fights her.

Y/n: I'm still using 25% of my power. Also, the warping power I have is inspired by your powers way back from 2nd Eruption and I made my own version for years. That includes my Sword Bits and everything else.

She was extremely angry at this she even gripped her fists due to the humiliation she was gifted despite her powers she claimed. He's still composed and calm at facing her, infuriating her further with her fists clenching and shaking in anger. The damaged parts starts to regenerate and boil violently.

Herrscher of Void: Are you pleased that you managed to make a wound on me? Are you so pleased that you have completely humiliated me?! Don't get so full of yourself, HUMAN!!!

The ornament from her hair and the eyes from the coattails of her clothing suddenly flicker around and burst as her wings have shattered and the shattered pieces gathered around her. The shards stabbed her body as a silver chunk of metal protruded from her body as many more appeared her eyes suddenly flickered towards him and a burst of dark matter light blasted both realms.

Herrscher of Void: GRAAAAAAAAAAAAAGH!!!!!!!!!!!

They all watch and glue their eyes at the scene as they watch the herrscher take on a new form. The metal chunks started to reform her and she was formed into her new form. An incomplete replication of ELS Qan[T] with her face only to be seen with the rest of her body silver and glowing with GN Particles and Honkai blood.

Herrscher of Void: This is completely unacceptable... as this Kaslana body would say towards an Honkai enemy!!

The Honkai blood simply flowed on the floor as she started attacking him but he simply dodged all of the attacks even with her powers she was still inferior compared to his. But suddenly another presence intervened in their battle. He looked behind him and saw Fu Hua in her Shadow Knight limiter off.

[Before the HoV fight in Imaginary space]

13 minutes ago. Containment Bay 7. Helheim Honkai Energy System Lab. Schicksal HQ.

This 15-square-meter room was originally used to contain test subjects. The room was furnished with only a small bed, basic sanitary facilities, and bare concrete walls. Himeko is held in a prison filled with medical tools and equipment.

Rita: The test results are out. Miss Murata's vitals have returned to normal.

Fu Hua: She's still unconscious.

Rita: Her body has endured extended periods of abuse and over-exhaustion. Oh, don't blame yourself, Master Fu Hua. It has nothing to do with the battle.

Fu Hua: ...

Rita: We're supposed to send them back to the Church. This accident was unexpected. We should treat them first. I've provided emergency treatment using these facilities. Decent rest will restore her health.

She then stood up and began to leave and tell her where she was going.

Rita: Now, allow me to excuse myself. You see, Dr. Tesla must be accommodated as well. I shall meet you again once everything is in place. I'm leaving this place to your care, Master Fu Hua.

Rita bowed and left the containment rooms briskly without giving Fu Hua a second glance. Fu Hua then thought up her plan.

Fu Hua: Rita has all corners covered. I'll just forget her for now.

Fu Hua then walked to the side of the bed. It is hard to imagine that a strong warrior like Himeko could appear so vulnerable on the sick bed.

Fu Hua: ...

Fu Hua opened her right hand towards her. A warm glow emanated from her palm. A rosy light shone on Himeko's body. Her breathing gradually became less labored. She was using her Divine Key's powers

Fu Hua: 'This will help soothe the pain.'

Several pristine feathers sparkled in the light. They slowly drifted downwards, scattering about the floor and walls, giving off light as they floated. When the feathers finally dissipated, a brief moment of pain flashed across Fu Hua's expressionless face.

Fu Hua: *cough* 'It's... alright... I have more of these feathers...'

She gritted her teeth and continued to give off the light, and when she was done she recuperated and suddenly an alarm went off.

Fu Hua: ...A warning!

Alarm: ---Non-combat personnel, please report to the nearest shelter!

Fu Hua: Has it finally started?

Fu Hua takes one last glance at Himeko before saying goodbye.

Fu Hua: I'm... ready.

Fu Hua set her task aside and left the containment bay.

Outer passageway. Containment Area. Honkai Energy System Labs: Helheim.

Fu Hua meets up with Rita who is casually fixing up her mechanical arm which has made use against Tesla. Rita received a message from Otto through her special contact lens.

Rita: Master Fu Hua, the Overseer has sent a message. The experiment worked, and the Herrscher awakened.

Fu Hua: Hmph. Let's go.

Alarm: ---Non-combat personnel, please report to the nearest shelter!

As they continued to find where HoV could be, then they saw Honkai Beasts coming through the evacuation sites.

Fu Hua: Honkai beasts? Have they already made it this far? We can't let the containment facilities be destroyed!

Rita: The Honkai barrier of the containment area is down. We'll need to reset it. There are 3 control terminals. All of them should be nearby.

As they began finding the control terminals to put the barrier back up, Honkai Beasts spawned from HoV's power.

Fu Hua: Hostiles!

Fu Hua and Rita began reaping through the Honkai Beasts as Rita was always the one who dealt the killing blows and Fu Hua was only a support. After they are all destroyed they finally put the final terminal back up and the barrier is once again online.

Rita: All nearby Honkai beast signals are gone. This place is safe for now. ...I've never seen the HQ so badly damaged before.

Fu Hua then asks Rita out of the blue about Tesla's location without her knowing the purpose.

Fu Hua: Where did you imprison the red-haired girl?

Rita: Don't you worry. She's well-accommodated in the guard tower to the north. The defense systems over there are just as robust as what we have here in the Containment Area.

Fu Hua: ...Understood. Continue your mission.

Rita: Rita here, Overseer. We have neutralized all the Honkai beasts that were infiltrating the Helheim Labs. Awaiting further orders.

Otto: Good. Stay put. Durandal will lead the Immortal Blades and rendezvous with you there. Let us welcome the moment when God herself bows before humanity.

Rita: Understood.

Fu Hua: Wait. Durandal is heading our way? Then who's dealing with the Herrscher? She's the only one who can fight them head-on!

Otto: Don't worry. Everything is under my control. Theresa will help us secure Herrscher-grade powers.

Fu Hua: What? Theresa is fighting the Herrscher?

Otto: Hoho, calm down, my friend- *radio cuts off*

Fu Hua: Hello? Hello?

Rita: Apologies. Communication systems are down. I'll run a check.

When they try to find it, it all leads them outside the school, and near the edge of the school where nothing but clouds is beneath them. They saw the sky shatter and the fabric of time and space showed the Imaginary Space where HoV obtained the Gem of Conquest. Y/n suddenly showed up in their shock as he battles her with grace and confidence.

Rita: ... An EMP attack hit us pretty close. Comm systems are down.

Fu Hua: 'EMP? Could it be Mei?' Rita, fix the comm systems and contact Durandal. Tell her that the awakened Herrscher may have broken free of our control. Muster the Valkyries. I'll delay the Herrscher to win some time...

Fu Hua plans to go into the heart of the battle and try to hold HoV off along with Y/n. But Rita thinks it the other way.

Rita: Master Fu Hua.

She then unsheathes her scythe and attacks Fu Hua when she dodges the incoming attack.

Rita: Apologies, I cannot obey.

Fu Hua looks in shock towards Rita, she can see in her eyes that she's out of it.

Fu Hua: ...Why?

Rita: The Overseer did not order us to fight the Herrscher.

Fu Hua: What?!

Rita: Allow me to explain. The Overseer has several trump cards up his sleeve. He has yet to use any of them. The situation is still very much within our control. He won't be pleased if we meddle with his plan.

Fu Hua didn't need to look at her knowing this would happen.

Fu Hua: I do not intend to argue with you. You don't have to help me. Just to let you know, the plan went out of control once Herrscher started attacking the innocent. I will stop her.

Rita: You still don't understand, Master Fu Hua. We're in a massive maelstrom of chaos. Every action will lead to unknown consequences. The Overseer ordered me... *arms her Scythe* To make sure you don't jeopardize our plans and everyone's lives.

Fu Hua just looked at her dumbfounded about the last line. "Everyone's lives", she dared to say when the whole world was now on its last legs. Fu Hua just looked at her hands as she remembered the look of Y/n's anger deep behind Gundam's mask and his voice.

Rita: Master Fu Hua, I don't want to say you're wrong, or judge your actions. Like you, I am obliged to defend my position and uphold my duties.

Fu Hua: Hmph. Talk won't resolve this. So...

Fu Hua then went forward and clashed her fist against her scythe as she glared at Rita.

Fu Hua: ...Get out of my way!

Rita: If our paths must cross, then I will do what I can to defend my position. Valkyrie Rita Rossweisse apologizes for being rude.

Fu Hua: Shut up and fight! You're not sorry anyway!

Scythe collided with gauntlets, giving off blossoms of fiery, bright sparks. Fu Hua's attacks aren't doing much against her even if she pushes her attacks with more power.

Fu Hua: 'Every swing was well-calculated, but she's only holding out against my attacks. She's trying to delay me. I'm running out of time...'

Fu Hua's body glowed orange along with her battlesuit as she decided to use her 7th Divine Key's powers. Rita knows this because she's in his inner circle.

Fu Hua: 'This might hurt her, but I have no other choice...'

Rita: Are you tapping into the power of your Divine Keys, Master Fu Hua?

Fu Hua takes her stance as she too is about to use her killing move that causes everyone who fights her to end up in a stretcher or the case of Honkai, the voids of hell.

Rita: Well then, to protect myself, I have no choice but to give it my best.

Fu Hua: Incoming...!

Rita: Oh?

But suddenly an object thrown from nowhere stabbed between them, it was so strong that it made a crack in the floor. It was a silver lance with dark outlines in the lance's hollow interior. When they looked from the direction of the lance's trajectory, they saw a stoic woman sitting from the top of the roof of a building.

Fu Hua: Durandal?

There she stood, the next wielder to the 6th Divine Key and currently wielding the remnant of the Key, the White Flower. The S-rank Valkyrie, Durandal, the most powerful warrior of Schicksal. Well, one of the most powerful Valkyrie, just beneath Cecilia and Kallen but above Rita and Fu Hua.

Rita: ...Master Durandal?

Durandal: Enough, Rita.

Durandal looked at her with such stoic glare and yet filled with concern for Rita. She shook her head to her knowing this won't do any good. She put away her scythe and just looked down.

Rita: ...Understood.

Fu Hua: 'She puts away her scythe-'

Durandal: Go now, Fu Hua.

Fu Hua: ...?

Durandal: We cannot offer you any support in your decision. But we fight to defend our faith and the people we love. I would have made the same choice if I were in your shoes. Even if it meant to protect people, I'd rather die fighting for them. Because I'm a Valkyrie, guardian of humanity, not Schicksal's or anybody.

Fu Hua: ...

She can see in Durandal's eyes something strange, a brief appearance of gold color with white lines flowing from its irises. She blinked and it was already gone. She doesn't know what it is but deep down she knows she can be trusted.

Fu Hua: Thank you. I will repay this kindness.

Fu Hua leaped off the edge of the floating island and disappeared into the whirling skies. As she starts to break through the cracked fabric and enter the realm. The two looked at the skies without a word. Rita was the first to break the silence.

Rita: Why didn't you stop her? ...She will die.

Durandal: It's her choice because she signed up to become a guardian of humanity. 'But I know something is missing in her that caused her to see the difference between Kiana and the Herrscher...'

Rita: What a shame. I like her a lot.

Rita can only see the destruction caused by the Herrscher's awakening, more Honkai forces appearing in the vicinity and killing everyone so easily. Including those who were evacuated by Celestial Being but were the hard fools by returning to the battlefield without knowing what they were dealing with. She returned her thoughts toward Fu Hua's decision to join the fight in the Imaginary space.

Rita: I did not expect Master Fu Hua to make that choice. This is the worst-case scenario. I must return to the Church and prepare for this, Master Durandal. Once the situation gets out of control, we must prepare our "Holy Blood".

Durandal just breathes as Rita begins leaving her alone. Durandal was left all alone as she looked at the battle. She then pulled out something from her neck and it was a necklace with a locket. When she opened it, a similar picture of Y/n's face was on the right, and the left was Siegfried's face with a child's face cut in half.

Durandal: Celestial Being... Are you the clues on breaking us out of the chains of suffering?

Present

Y/n: Fu Hua?

Fu Hua: Mei, Theresa, Bronya. Where are they?

Y/n: Back in the ship at reality, almost at death's door...

Fu Hua: Get out of here, and do not come back! You cannot defeat this enemy!

Y/n: What are you-?! *gets grabbed*

Fu Hua: Go now!!

Y/n: WOAH!!!!!

Y/n was suddenly pulled away by Fu Hua's powers as he was blasted back into reality. Leaving her all alone, against the Queen Void herself.

Herrscher of the Void: Hah! You humans are like maggots. Kill one and dozens take its place. Come at me all you want, worthless scum! Someone should tell you that it's rude to disturb someone else's party.

Fu Hua: Hmph. Enough words!

Herrscher of the Void: How surprising.

Fu Hua was foolish that she didn't know what she was dealing with after Y/n humiliated her pride and humbled her by saying he was holding back the whole time. She then blocked an incoming Subspace explosion and parried it to her side as she started fighting her. The HoV is easily blocking her attacks as she looks at her eyes filled with determination. But then she remembered back in Singapore where Y/n knocked her out and she was the same girl.

Herrscher of the Void: I... I remember you! That funny outfit, that despicable face! You've caused me a great deal of grief! Did you come to protect this girl as well?!

Fu Hua: Are you done talking yet?

Herrscher of the Void: Hmph. Insect... You shall pay for your insolence!

Fu Hua continues fighting her with her limiter off and the broken output of the battlesuit. But it's slowly taking a toll on her due to how she was incompatible with it. Being bathed in GN Particles is starting to take effect on all Y/n met and closely bonded with. Fu Hua was suddenly caught off guard by her immediate counterattack with her Subspace lance and her forcefield pushing her back hard.

Fu Hua: Kh...

Herrscher of the Void: I must admit, you are slightly different. Unfortunately, you're just a human.

Every time her attacks hit her, the Herrscher was wounded but she regenerated her wounds at an astonishing speed. The Gem of Serenity bestowed upon her an impregnable shield through the Herrscher of Death's powers. There's no way to get through her immortality. The odds stacked on Fu Hua are now tilted in Sirin's favor. Sirin notices Fu Hua's strength as she tells her a harsh truth.

Herrscher of the Void: Odd, you didn't go all out against me. Why? You wield two Divine Keys, and yet you refuse to unleash the second one.

Fu Hua: ...

Herrscher of the Void: Why don't you use it? Perhaps you don't know how. Perhaps, maybe it's... unusable? No matter. You can't change anything. Go meet your maker.

HoV is about to unleash her barrage but suddenly somebody enters the realm, clapping like it's seeing a normal play. She turned around and saw an uninvited guest on the battlefield.

Otto: ...A most exciting battle. You are indeed the Queen of the Honkai. Your beauty and form are simply sublime.

Herrscher of the Void: You... I know you... You are the pathetic human who woke me... who aspires to the powers of God.

Otto: Haha... It's an honor to be remembered by you, my Queen. I am hoping that you may spare this one to return the favor of reviving you.

Otto pointed at Fu Hua held hostage by the Herrscher. Crimson fluid began to flow from his body at the same time. A blood-like fluid spiraled upwards along Otto's arms. It finally congregated into numerous sharp spines. The metallic blood spines were pointed at the Herrscher and seemed poised for launching.

Otto: She is a friend. And I do hope that you won't hurt my friend.

He spoke in his usual nonchalant and mischievous tone to her. But the Herrscher did not think so. It was not Otto himself, but the metallic blood spines that disturbed her. It felt familiar to her, yet strange and alien at the same time. Would she fight this clown? She figured she could easily kill him but not for those metallic blood spikes on his body. So she just gives Fu Hua up to her, and at the same time she can feel something similar to her. A focus and dedicated goal that she and he didn't have.

Herrscher of the Void: Hmph. Killing her would soil my hands. I'll leave her to your care.

Otto: There is no doubt that you are behind the 2nd Honkai War, and pose the greatest threat to humanity. You wield great powers and have the vision to see your plans through.

Herrscher of the Void: Boring flattery. I'm not interested in you. I only care about the girls and those Gundams who stand against me. I didn't expect someone like you to be leading humanity. You are indeed pathetic.

She then disappeared and returned to reality while Otto looked at the cracked fabric of time and then suddenly looked down at the defeated Fu Hua. Holes everywhere on her body and she's fatally wounded with blood trickling down her face.

Otto: What a gruesome fight. The last time I saw you hurt this badly was at Heaven's Pinnacle, 500 years ago.

Fu Hua: ...

Otto: I'll get you treated. In any case, we need to celebrate the successful conclusion of Phase 1.

Fu Hua hears this as she starts to talk to him in shock and surprise at what he said.

Fu Hua: ...What?

Otto: You can still talk?

Fu Hua: Why did you allow her to leave...? You should know that she plans to...

Otto: I know. She's after Theresa. She will catch up to the girls soon. No one will be getting in our way this time. They will fight to the last breath.

Fu Hua: What are you talking about?

Otto: Of course, I never told you about this. Don't worry. It will be music to your ears... K-423 is still alive. I needed her alive.

Fu Hua: *gasp*

Otto: You see, that body now houses three minds.

Otto: There's K423, whom you address as Kiana, and then there's Sirin, the Herrscher of the Void. Absorbing the Gem of Serenity I tasked you to take from your Singapore mission, then absorb highly concentrated Honkai energy, and finally absorb highly concentrated GN Particles. Sirin's consciousness within that body began to stir. She then successfully took over the vessel to revive the Herrscher of the Void but at the same time, another persona has been made and will now rule all two of them in his dictatorship... But this is not the ending I intended.

He then looks at the cracked fabric of time with HoV slowly arriving as the battleship begins to fire at all Honkai Beasts appearing in the ship.

Otto: We would call this Phase 1. True testing will commence after this. Despite Sirin's takeover, K423 is very much alive. She's only sleeping. What would happen if K423 overpowers Sirin?

Otto: The answer is simple: we'd end up with a human with Herrscher powers. This has been proven with the 3rd and 4th Herrschers. Suppressing the Herrscher's mind will not deprive her of her powers. It's far easier to control a human instead of a Herrscher. It's not easy to make K-423 win, but it's not impossible either to make her lose.

Fu Hua started to realize what he was planning all along, and this hurt her even more as Y/n was proven right, yet again.

Fu Hua: Are you planning...?!

Otto: Yes I am. We have to use emotional ties, emotions can bring about miracles.

Fu Hua: You...!

Otto: I believe that relationships between people can bring about the greatest feats of power. K-423 spent quite a while in St. Freya, she built unbreakable ties and friendships with her classmates. Such warm and happy memories will empower K-423, and allow her to defeat the loveless Herrscher.

Fu Hua: They... they'll be killed!

Otto: Yes, I know. There is a great disparity between their powers. But I cannot offer them any assistance. I will not allow anyone to interfere in this holy struggle. Humanity burns brightest in desperate moments like this.

Otto: According to my calculations, K-423 will retake her body once a Valkyrie is brave enough to sacrifice herself. I believe in Theresa and her students! They will kill the Herrscher with love- only they can achieve this great endeavor!

Fu Hua: ...

Madness! This man has gone mad! No! He was already mad, to begin with. Y/n has always been right and yet she didn't even see it for her lack of ability like Y/n. She laughs at her failure once again.

Fu Hua: Haha... Hahahaha... HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!

Otto: I am asking you a serious question, my friend. I chose to tell you everything because your actions are beyond my control anymore. Do you plan to oppose me? Are you still trying to stop me?

She stopped laughing as she gritted her teeth and gave him an answer. An answer of spiting him many more times than he could count.

Fu Hua: Friend? Friend?! I sense no sympathy or decency from your words... only utter selfishness and lies. You trample on emotions and toy with the destiny of others... You don't even realize how vile your actions are...

Fu Hua's attitude slowly changed into a crazed and insane attitude as she looked at him with spite and hate.

Fu Hua: Otto Apocalypse... You've made me realize just how hateful and despicable you are... Y/n was right... You deserve to be eradicated for your acts of war...

Lightning streaked across the heavens as dark clouds covered the skies. The smile on Otto's face slowly disappears as he opens his hand. Golden rays slowly condensed into a gun in his hand. It was a copy of the Judgment of Shamash. He pointed the weapon at the prone girl, he did it slowly. 500 years' worth of memories was nothing but a fleeting dream to him. Nothing more than the briefest of moments.

He even has one grudge, to kill Y/n for reasons he had yet to know and understand. He just can't die, every time he is killed by his hand, he rises again. Too many times, his resolve, his power of being a strange Herrscher, he was desperate to get it. But he never understood the power he has. He made up his mind once he got back to his senses.

Otto: I did not lie, Master Jingwei. I'll tell you a cold truth, the Celestial Being will die by my hand. For I'm the man who will become the true ruler of all Innovators along with my wife, Kallen...

His eyes changed color his blonde hair turned lime green and spiked as he looked at Fu Hua, who was horrified of what is his true identity in this world.

Otto: I am... Beside Pain.

BANG

He pulls the trigger as he lays waste on Fu Hua, splattering her blood on the floor and along with her intelligence. He then conjures a portal with just a flick of his hand as he adjusts his wristbones and cracks his neck as he carries the dead Fu Hua with his new powers.

Few minutes later

Airspace above the Southern Outer Passageway, Helheim Honkai Energy System Labs.

The Hyperion is almost crashing as they are hovering above the Helheim Labs. On the hangar deck of Hyperion, the Gundam Star Build Strike is firing her guns against the Honkai Beasts but also punching them to their demise.

Kallen: We're about 4km from Dr. Tesla's signal broadcast. No anomalies detected in the vicinity.

Einstein: Roger that. Reduce cruising speed and begin descent. Initiate search for Dr. Tesla and company. Full alert, Squads. The Herrscher may attack us at any time via Imaginary Space.

Kallen: Doctor, our casualties?

Einstein: We're badly hit. Madam Theresa's wounds have been tended to, but it will take a while for her to fully recover. As for Mei... she suffered heart injuries when the Herrscher took away the Gem of Conquest. Her vitals are growing weaker. She must undergo cardiac surgery to survive. Bronya though, she has small concussion on her head and her right eye is almost blinded but she will fully recover soon.

Kallen was saddened to hear this news and was almost sadder when she heard about Bronya. Bronya was almost close having the same fate as what happened to Niel Dylandy's eye. But it's a good thing it didn't due to the new cells created in her body, same goes for the others who have fallen after the battle.

Einstein: We have no choice but to withdraw after locating Tesla and the others...

But suddenly, the alarm goes off as they saw more Honkai Beasts appearing on the ship again.

Kallen: The radar has picked up a large swarm of Honkai beasts attempting to attack the battleship. She's still alive after from all that... 'That would mean Fu Hua has failed...'

Einstein: Battle stations!

As she started firing her gun and using her martial arts to fight the Honkai Beasts, some have managed to make it through and are heading towards the bridge making her gasp at the ones that got through. But suddenly a trail of orange GN Particles suddenly trailblaze the skies as something suddenly crashed on the ship, almost tilting the ship, and then slays through the beasts that got through Kallen's defenses and killed them.

Kallen: What the hell happened? Has the Hyperion been compromised?!

Her vision slowly returned. She could see light piercing through the darkness. Her vision started getting brighter and that's when she saw her. The fire-infused GN Particles that continued to burn through the darkness.

Kallen: ...Himeko.

Himeko: Excellent work on defending the ship. Thank you, for everything and for taking care of the girls and the crew.

But then, more Honkai Beasts started to spawn out of nowhere and are about to invade the ship.

Kallen: Damn, these things just keep coming like worms...

Himeko: Return to the Ptolemy and Hyperion! Leave this to me!

Kallen nodded and hummed as she left her there, fighting the entire army of Honkai. Himeko slashes them all with her abilities and the power that her mobile suit possesses and burns them all. They all watch in awe, including the Gundam Meisters.

Sakura: What an amazing display of power...!

Rin: Did she stole that from Schicksal?

Eula: Is nobody gonna question about her battlesuit's design?!

Kallen: I was gonna ask the same thing. It looks like it was a Gundam type judging from that special kind of GN particles. Y/n, do you know about any of this?

Y/n: No, but this would prove that Otto is stepping up and has been watching us this whole time. To the point he would try to replicate our technnology, but all he did was made themselves the worse verison of ours. I'll go and assist her, all of you keep focusing fire on the Honkai Beasts.

Bella: Do you want me to take you for a ride?

Y/n: Yes, let's assist our fellow Meister.

As Y/n is finally back from being thrown out of the space, he rides on Bella's back in her Black Hole dragon form as they fly away to head towards where Himeko is right now. Down below, is Himeko killing Honkai Beasts left and right as Tesla is helping evacuate all people.

Tesla: Space curvature anomaly detected. I've never seen Honkai energy levels this high! More hostiles incoming! We must stop the Herrscher from summoning more minions!

Himeko: I'll distract the enemies. Focus on saving the wounded! Einstein, can we restart the Hyperion's engines?

Einstein: The port-side armor plating compromised. GN-Drive chambers impacted. Shock absorbing systems damaged. Tesla, how much time do you need to recover the ship?

Tesla: 3 minutes. Just give me 3 minutes and we'll be out of this place!

Tesla starts her repairs but suddenly, she detects a massive Honkai reading on her gauntlet radar.

Tesla: A violent Honkai energy reaction is quickly closing in on our location. It's the Herrscher! This is bad! We are in no position to engage here!

Himeko: Make the Hyperion sky-worthy again for repositioning!

As Himeko makes her killing spree, she is dominating the battlefield at the cost of her own stamina depleting. A ninja-type zombie sneaking up on Himeko to attack her, but the Sword Bits sliced the swords and Himeko countered its attack by stabbing it straight through the stomach.

Drops of the zombies' blood sizzled, dried, and blackened as they fell onto the superheated floor. But then a barrage suddenly fires beside her making the zombie be thrown away by her sword. The cruel and malicious voice of HoV could be heard in front of her, and she's still in her berserked form after being humiliated by Y/n.

Herrscher of the Void: Oh dear, can't believe I'm getting stopped by this. You should stick to the script, girls.

The roiling heavens were torn apart and the rain of Honkai starts to pour down. The Herrscher could be seen amidst the flashes of lightning. She's on top of her dragon looking down at Himeko with cruelty.

Himeko: Kiana...

Herrscher of the Void: Found you! It doesn't matter who goes first now. You're all insects to me. I'll start with you-!

Y/n: You forgot someone!

Suddenly Benares collided with something as they both free fall to the floor and destroying more empty buildings as they dropped. Himeko was shocked to see another dragon and this was tamed by Y/n who drops down to meet up with Himeko. He looks at Himeko and makes a smirk at her figure and her good looks.

Y/n: You got the drip right there...

Himeko: Haha... I've been waiting for a while to see you again, sugar.

Y/n: Hey now, I'm still not ready to mingle with you.

(Gundam 00 ost Counterattack plays)

https://youtu.be/Edr29C9P4rY

But then an annoyed voice emerged from the rubble and it blasted all the debris surrounding it. Y/n and Himeko sliced all debris that was coming to them and the victims Tesla is evacuating.

Herrscher of Void: You again!! You damn insect, you even dare copy me!

Benares: GROAAARR!!!!!

Black Benares: GRAAAAAAGH!!!!!

Both Benares started to be covered in their own elements as HoV's Benares revealed her humanoid form. On the other hand, Y/n's Benares showed her true form.

Benares: What an inferior copycat...!

Bella H.: Looks like I got the drip better than her, don't you thnk Y/n?

Y/n: Took the words right out of my mouth.

The three now begins to fight HoV and Bella as they collided swords and energy attacks against each other. Tesla can only watch the fiasco going on.

Tesla: Hey! Himeko...!

Himeko: Gather the wounded and get the ship back into the air! Hurry!

Tesla didn't wasted time as she evacuates the last wounded in the ship as the battle continued to ensue. The Herrscher launches her barrage of lances but all of that were dodged by Himeko and Y/n as Himeko started attacking her, and broke the shield.

Benares fires her dragon breath against the black hole dragon but Bella uses her powers to pull it in the black hole as a black hole appeared behind Benares and inflicted her instead.

Y/n and Himeko are attacking the Herrscher as she was receiving cuts and gashes from their synchronize attacks. But then she receives a kick and slash to the face and her torso by both Gundams.

Benares: Your Highness!

Bella: Eyes on me mommy's girl!

Bella and Benares then transforms into their dragon forms as they take the fight to the skies. Herrscher is now looking at them appalled at what she was seeing. The girl is on the same level as her now and the boy is still the same faking cheater she has called him.

Herrscher of the Void: What? That battlesuit...!

Himeko: Hehe. That looks painful! You're actually bleeding! I never expected for a God to bleed.

Y/n: Here I thought, she was the all powerful Queen that she arrogantly calls herself...

Herrscher of the Void: Impossible! I should have killed you all a dozen times over!

Himeko: Oh, I am SO sorry. I can be rather sticky at times!

Himeko pointed her sword at the bleeding Queen as their battlemasks disables and the look on Himeko's face is determined and resolute while Y/n's is calm and composed.

Herrscher of the Void: ...Insolent human!

Himeko: Don't you ever get tired of calling us worms, insects or humans?!

Himeko: I've got a name and best try to remember it when you go to hell and cry to your daddy's foot! I'm HIMEKO MURATA!!

Himeko and Y/n teleported into his quantum gate as HoV tries to pursue but ended up getting hit by the fires of hell from her greatsword. To "ease" her pain, the GN Sword Bits "heals" the wound and "heals" it completely by being stricken with the GN Sword V from 00 Qan[T].

Herrscher of the Void: Grrrgh!!!

Greatsword and swords clashed with the dreadful lances. Fire blazed, shadows danced, and stars twinkled. The Valkyrie swung her greatsword and bravely stood against the maelstrom of destruction.

Herrscher of the Void: Why?! You're all nothing but insects to me! I shall not be denied!!

The lance coughed up blasts of lightning. The smoke smelled of death. But the blazing greatsword whipped up a firestorm that reduced it to ashes. The Herrscher discovers a shocking revelation of the Valkyrie's source of power.

Herrscher of the Void: That armor, it's powered by a Gem... My Gem! Along with that damnable light shows! You filthy insects! I'll rip you to shreds with everything I've got!

The Herrscher's face was a twisted grimace. She directed all her fury towards her prey. She would stop at nothing to annihilate the red-haired Valkyrie and the boy she defies the most. Such anger blinded her so that she never saw multiple pair of eyes studying her every move.

Einstein: System control: Online. Output control: Online. Trajectory control: Online. Target locked. Commencing range corrections. Correction complete. We will not waste this opportunity that you've created for us. You are locked on, Stratos!

The Herrscher suddenly felt a powerful pull that grabbed her attention as Himeko and Y/n have dodged out of her sight and only see a massive ball full of compressed GN Particles and saw Bronya with her GN Bazooka at Full Burst Mode aiming at her with her strained painful face.

Herrscher of the Void: ...?!

Bronya: Just like the legendary name says, TARGETED AND FIRING!!!

A powerful beam shot forth from the bazooka and directly struck the Herrscher's body. The secret weapon hidden onboard the Hyperion was finally fired in anger and it struck true. The Herrscher resisted but it only made herself look worse.

Herrscher of the Void: What is this?! GRAAAAAAAAAAAA!

Honkai energy leaked out of her broken shell. The vast reservoir of Honkai within the Herrscher sprayed from every crack and orifice of her body. The unbridled energy quickly transformed into bright rays of light erupting from the Herrscher that then dissipated as intense waves of heat.

Herrscher of the Void: My...! My body...!

Her body was being torn apart. Powerful photonic currents continued to bombard the Herrscher, peeling her pinions from her wrecked body. Edison, a scientist born in the 20th century, initiated humanity's greatest projects for "civilian" use.

The world's greatest Honkai energy converter, Anti-Entropy's ultimate weapon, and now one of Celestial Being's greatest trump cards. Forced after a 50-year project that heralded its appearance with one shot. It is the weapon that bears the ideals and will of both humanity and Celestial Being, it is the Selene!

Herrscher of the Void: GRAAAAAAAAAA!!!

As the GN-Honkai filled ball exploded, her screams of pain can only be heard behind the light as the entire place shakes from it's power. The light fades away and they looked at the aftermath of the attack. Her body burned to crisp and cracks on her skin appeared with a large scar and gash on her torso. Bronya, Himeko and Einstein just sighed knowing that it worked and it's over.

(End Counterattack ost)

But then suddenly they hear a strange gurgling noise as they looked at the body of the Herrscher glowing; the wounds are being repaired and stitched up, the massive scar being reformed with the sound of cracks and the skin regaining its color, all by themselves. The Herrscher screams from the painful regeneration process as she wakes up, huffing from the process she felt and her berserk form is gone, returning to her original form completely.

Herrscher of the Void: Foul creatures...!

The Herrscher of the Void looks at them and suddenly creates a portal in a hurry in order to escape. This made everyone look in shock of what happened except for Y/n. Both Meisters were returned to the hyperion after the battle. Tesla reported of what just transpired and the result of the SELENE Project's capability.

Tesla: The Herrscher has escaped into Imaginary Space! We dealt massive damage, but she managed to escape.

Einstein: Perhaps we shouldn't have force-fired the weapon. We have few options left, evacuate all personnel to the ship. Commence withdrawal right now.

Meanwhile at the Hyperion, lower deck passageways. Himeko leaned against the railings outside the medical bay. People carrying the wounded rushed past her all that's left is herself all alone. She tried to stanch her wounds but she could not stop the bleeding.

Himeko: Heh... I guess I did a number on myself this time.

No one heard her. The serum in her hand glistened palely and reflected her scarred face. But she's not alone there as somebody walks slowly and sits beside her.

Y/n: Me too... It might not look like it but, it's happening.

The piercing alarm began to sound, adding even more chaos to the riotous corridor. But to Himeko, the world was as peaceful as could be.

Himeko: Alright, I guess it's time for a breather.

She straightened herself and went the opposite way to the rest of the crew. Time seemed to have paused at that moment. This was a good time for her and him to have a dialogue for at least this moment.

Himeko: You have to go to lengths to protect us by leaving us?

Y/n: ...

Himeko: Actually, don't answer that. That was stupid of me to say it.

Y/n: Well, we're all stupid sometimes. Especially on making harsh decisions for the sake of everyone's improvement and growth. Sometimes it would even make us regret it in the end. I wanna ask you the question...

Y/n looked at her with a gentle and caring look and tone. She then noticed his face somber and was tired. She felt bad for seeing him like this, not knowing why, and felt like she was destined to have something bad happen to herself when she saw him like this.

Y/n: Do you regret making this decision?

Himeko then stands up looking at Bronya who is being treated for her injuries, Mei in her medical clothing after her surgery and Theresa having the same case with Mei.

Himeko: You know, I don't. But at the same time, a little bit. The girls never do grow up. But seeing them from here I like it here. Y/n, when you look at us, we probably still have a long way to go, right?

Y/n looks at her with a sad smile and answers her with full honesty.

Y/n: Yes. You are right.

Himeko then smiled and looked at the girls through the observation glass on their beds sleeping. She places a hand on the glass as she can see her reflection a tear flowing down her cheek as her eyes change to an Innovator once more. She wipes it off and smiles at the girls even though they don't know they're being watched by the two.

Himeko: Godspeed, girls.

She leaves and Y/n follows along. Soldiers, medics, wounded personnel wrapped in bandages, and damage control specialists. The crew of the Hyperion, people of the Far East Branch, members of Anti-Entropy, and the Celestial Being.

Those that Himeko had seen, and others that Himeko had never seen before, those who knew her and those who didn't, all of them passed by her without a word. But the Celestial Being takes a glance at them especially Kallen knowing this is it.

As the elevator closes, they only look in sorrow and sadness. As the elevator ascends slowly and watches the staff and recruits work together to keep the ships stable all they can think of is each of their last things to do before having their last laugh together and walking into the hells of battle.

Himeko: I'd kill for just another can of beer...

Y/n: I'd rather have a kill for Adobong Gata and their HOMU Juice...

The blue silvery liquid is flowing in the canister of the Spear of Destiny as she can hear the artificial intelligence, AI-chan, shouting at the intercoms of the incoming threat knowing the night is not yet over.

AI: Unknown heat signature rapidly closing in from behind! Speed: 420 klicks-per-hour. Optical system failure. Unable to acquire target visuals. Sloped deck armor hit by an energy shell. We have lost our spoilers. Target is 1000 meters away... 700... 300...

A red light started to light up in the elevator as Y/n looked up and Himeko gripped the injection and an alarm started to emit knowing the battle was now upcoming to its climax.

Himeko: Is she coming?

Y/n: Yep, my dragon is holding her back and it seems they're getting tired and about to land on the ship.

Outside of the ship, underneath the night sky with the full moon shining the darkest nights, both dragons are fighting each other as they breach the defenses of Hyperion's shield with Ptolemy and Hyperion firing their weapons toward the dragon Honkai. Benares bit Bella's injured part of her body as she roared in and dropped to the ground.

Bella: Y/n! I can't hold her any longer, where are you?!

The elevator arrived in time at the hangar and Himeko put away the serum in her pocket. They saw the Benares grabbing and throwing a turret towards the hangar. As she saw this she heard his call and replied to her plea.

Y/n: We have arrived.

Himeko smiled and Y/n looked at it with a calm smile as he grabbed the debris with ease and Himeko launched out of the bridge along with the debris that she kicked towards the Benares. The dragon was hit as they both went down on the hangar deck. Y/n drops in to assist Himeko and orders Bella.

Y/n: Return to Ptolemy! We'll be handling the rest!

Bella nods knowing that this is it as she leaves him, she can't help but look at him in sadness. Y/n looks at the dragon and Himeko then powers up her greatsword with her flames as she is about to strike him when all of a sudden, a bright light devours them whole.

When they opened their eyes, they were now inside the Imaginary Space, and they were on a replication of the Hyperion made out of black blocks.

Himeko: What is this?

They heard a cruel laugh behind them as they looked at the figure walking down on them. It was the Herrscher of the Void recovered from her injuries.

Herrscher of the Void: Do you think that you can escape?

Himeko: Hmph. I've been waiting for you.

Y/n: We weren't planning to escape anyway. We're planning to end all of this, right here, right now. Tonight.

Herrscher of the Void: I hope you're ready... to meet your maker.

They were suddenly pulled by her gravity as they felt it. Himeko almost spat out saliva and Y/n grits his teeth, getting used to this pull after all the fights he has from his mobile suit.

Herrscher of the Void: Struggle all you want, worms.

They were then pushed behind her void black and snapped her fingers to reform it and sliced them with her Subspace Lance's reformatting shape ability and then stabbed them with it.

Herrscher of the Void: Pathetic.

She walks without amusement and care. But as she walks she hears a voice so calm that it irritates her.

Y/n: Lame moves... I've seen worse than this crap...!

Suddenly the sword bit from Himeko's Gundam suit with a combined Sword Bits of 00 Qan[T] launches at her with break-necking speeds that she narrowly blocks it with her lance and pulls it into a black hole. Then she teleports it behind her as it hits the throne, destroying her kingdom and the dragon she encased in it.

https://youtu.be/SQc_lpV_hsU

Y/n and Himeko appeared after quantizing themselves to dodge those attacks right off the bat. 

Himeko was exhausted from making that emergency move, so she walked limply in front of her, with her Honkai-ELS powers flowing in her veins, the armor cracked and damaged, and the battle mask cracked and shattered so that her face could be seen now. 

Y/n however is making his true appearance reveal in front of her, his whole body is metallic, both his hair and body are all silver and his eyes are the eyes of a Purebred Innovator, or rather Herrscher. His Gundam now transforming into the powers of Setsuna's ELS Qan[T].

Y/n: Are you done releasing blows?

Himeko: 'Cause it's our turn now... 

Y/n & Himeko: I hope you don't mind, girl.

The Herrscher just laughed, cockily thinking she can win from this. Not knowing her powers are screaming out for a call towards Y/n

Herrscher of the Void: Die!

The Subspace Lances appeared around them as they called back the sword bits. Then their swords formed into their Buster forms and swung it at all the Subspace Lances.

Y/n: 'Kiana, everything will have changed once you wake up. The world will no longer be a pretty place. Life as you know it will be replaced by something else. Corruption will rise and understanding will fall.'

Himeko: 'But... don't ever, ever give up!'

Himeko and Y/n glared at the Herrscher as their eyes behind the cold glares of their Gundam's eyes were irritating to see in the Herrscher's sight. Y/n then teleports into the quantum gate as she appears behind her and slashes her with his sword causing ELS to assimilate her arm, then flies under her to use the wings to turn into spears and stabbing her Subspace Lances making them unusable and continuing the assimilation.

Herrscher of the Void: You pathetic human insects!

The Herrscher launched an attack from above with her blocks, fired an arrow of her power, and pierced through the blocks. Y/n's and Himeko's voice are still alive and well making her flinch when the objects are destroyed and sliced apart. She then saw their faces and their bodies glowing red; they activated their Trans-Am Stigmata.

Y/n: 'You must fight it. Because a Gundam Meister isn't being based on having a Gundam, it's about your dedication to change the world for the better and prepare them for any kind of crisis that cannot be overcome alone.'

She launches her Subspace Lances at them as Y/n gets on top of it and rides it down like a ski with his sword slicing through it. Himeko gets through and splits it with her Buster Sword, but she gets grazed and cuts to her shoulder and cheek.

The Herrscher is gritting her teeth from the power they possess as she attempts to block them but they jump over her and attack her from above with Himeko going for a smashing motion and Y/n going for a wide slash motion. 

The Herrscher brings everything she's got with a yell of spreading her powers to form a giant drill towards them. Himeko grits her teeth and yells with strain as Y/n huffs a breath and a cold yell. They are starting to push through but the drill is slowly starting to reform as a flash in their heads appears and their loved ones appear.

Theresa: Himeko! Y/n!

Mei: Major, Y/n.

Fu Hua: Major, Captain Y/n.

Bronya: Major, Y/n.

Kiana: I'm gonna be the best Valkyrie ever, Aunt Himeko! I'll also become the best Gundam ever, Y/n! You just watch me!!

Himeko's hollow white eyes returned with color as her Innovator's eyes glowed up and she efforted with everything she had as the entire Gundam suit was now in its fiery red-orange hue that purged her armor and the GN Particles created her fiery wings of light from her body.

Y/n yelled with everything he had knowing this would be his finale as his eyes glowed more aurora color and his Innovator's eyes glowed brightly, the entire Gundam body glowed green and created his wings of light made from his GN Particles.

Herrscher of the Void: Dammit!!

Himeko stabs through the drill and Y/n forms a drill shield to pierce through the thick drill. As they are now jetting straight through the Herrscher of the Void. 

In the real world, the entire two ships are filled with GN Particles that caused everyone to feel it and watch their perspectives of the battle. Their eyes are all active and revealed the Innovator eyes on each and everyone of them. They can even hear their mental talk to Kiana inside the Herrscher of the Void.

Some are wishing for their return and Kiana's return. Some even wished for Himeko's arrival after this along with Y/n's return as the Captain of Hyperion. Others watched calmly what was unfolding. But one girl woke up and limpingly walked through the elevator to try and get to the person she cherishes.

Himeko: 'Kiana, be brave! Push on! You can still end this story the way you want!'

Y/n: 'Because you are the only one who has the rights to decide this story's ending!!'

The Herrscher can't do anything as she suddenly falls down with her arms open a bright light is emitted and it causes realities once again to break and everyone sees the crack where the fight happened and concludes. They then hear a sword stabbing to the ground hard Himeko's voice, now weakened.

Himeko: Live, Kiana...

They saw the victor as Himeko now lifeless and her eyes were hollow orange, the suit was now purged completely. She intentionally misses Kiana over her head as the sword starts to crack.

Y/n: Live and fight, Kiana... To change... To understand each other...

Y/n is simply embracing her with one arm and the other arm holding his Buster Sword falls apart leaving only his GN Sword V with blood stained on it, stabbed to the ground beside her. Y/n slashed her left arm completely as it was still regenerating with the sound of the ELS passing through her body and slowly regenerating it into a new silver permanent arm.

Himeko: That's... our final lesson... for you...

Y/n(Setsuna): Goodbye, my grandchildren...

They are all in shock just like the sword now shatters as Himeko's body drops on top of him and Y/n's power is now fading. She then gets angry and uses this opportunity to push them off of her. But she saw Y/n not letting go so she stabs him with her Subspace lances and finally he was out of her skin. But Himeko slyly smiled at the Herrscher knowing they won.

The Herrscher suddenly felt a shock on the back of her neck. The serum was injected and emptied as its contents started to spread quickly in her body. Her new ELS arm is now completed and her body is now full of ELS blood with the serum mixing it up. This formula has put her out of commission.

Herrscher of the Void: GRAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!

Her scream of agony that turned into a high-pitched and mixed low voice of the third persona Honkai in her has caused her entire body to leak out the excessive Honkai powers. The space is now shattering and crumbling as Himeko and Y/n's bodies are lying on the crumbling Hyperion, side by side, facing each other as he holds her hand and they fall into the cracked reality together. 

Y/n-Setsuna: I love you so much... Himeko...

As the people in reality watch three stars fall and the reality is slowly fixed again, Y/n has his final words to say to the whole world as he uses all the remaining powers he has to connect the minds of everybody in the world.

Y/n: Hey, all of you people in this world... are you satisfied with the way the world is now...?

The crack is now closing and he reaches out to them when he saw from afar Mei trying to reach out as he pointed his finger towards nowhere but mentally for everyone's mind is how he points it to them with a finger gun pose.

Y/n: As for me... I hate it...!

When the crack in the space and time closes, it caused a massive explosion that was so powerful it really shook the entire world as Mei watches in shock and her eyes widen as she instead calls out his other name.

Mei: SETSUNA!!

(End Nightglow ost)

From outside, the Celestial Being watched it all, and one pink HARO saw it all and started shouting his name, multiple times, adding to the sorrow of all who watched it.

Operator: The crack has been closed and there are no more damages breach in our ships. There are no more Honkai energy readings around us. We're safe!

But then, a communication gets into the Hyperion's communication line from Ptolemaios.

HARO: Setsuna! Setsuna! Setsuna! Setsuna!

Tesla: HARO, what's wrong?

HARO: Setsuna! Setsuna!

(Stephanie-Friends ost plays)

Einstein: *eye widen* Don't tell me...

Eula: No way...

Bella: This isn't... happening!

Bronya for the first time cries and tries not to pour it all out. The students in the staff have started to tear up and try their best to hold it back but they can't and burst into tears. Mei watched it all, crying and sitting on the floor, as she sits on the floor as she mutters their names.

Mei: Major Himeko... Y/n... Kiana-chan...

HoT: 'You stupid... old man...!'

She was holding onto a Egyptian Lotus flower ornament that symbolizes in purity, creation and rebirth. Her eyes' purple color has awakened the Innovator's power and gene, all she can let out is a scream of anguish and grief.

Mei & HoT: AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGH!!!!!!!!!

(End Stephanie Friends ost)

The Hyperion and Ptolemaios escaped encirclement. Subject K-423 ,aka Kiana Kaslana, and the prototype Godsbane Gundam battlesuits have both gone missing. The Herrscher has returned to her slumber. 

The Honkai Eruption she caused has continued to spread worldwide. In the face of such catastrophic calamity, Anti-Entropy shall rally and ally with Theresa once more, including the Celestial Being.

The 8th Divine Key, Fenghuang Down, is now in the hands of the Apocalypse head. He can't know its powers due to his limited knowledge, but it's only a matter of time before he does. He also knows these trifles will not stop the tests. 

So, too must we, for changing the world better. Also our mission is to bring both of them home.  The next progeny of Kaslana and of Y/n Seiei.

Kiana's body washes up on a beach, unconscious, but also in front of her is the GN Sword V. On the ocean, there is a person floating on the water. A female with brown hair and only wears a damaged skintight suit.

What I hate are people who misuse their intelligence, the ones who get caught up in their own personal beliefs and prejudices and lose sight of the truth. It leads to misunderstandings, followed by discord, and then by conflict. All I want is understanding between people.

The world has changed, multiple news outlets in the world spread the word of Schicksal's battle and what would be known as the battle of Angels. Then the world started to revolve and change, and it all started in a single loop message worldwide.

"I would like to address this statement to every single human being born and raised on Earth. We call ourselves simply Celestial Being. We are a private armed organization in possession of the mobile weapon Gundam. The main objective of Celestial Being's activities is to completely eliminate acts of war from this world. We do not act for our own benefit or for personal gain. We have chosen to intervene for the greatest goal of all to rid ourselves of the scourge of war. As of this moment I make this declaration to all humanity. Territory, religion, energy no matter what the reason or excuse if there is an evident act of war being carried out, we will commence intervention with our force. Any country, organization or corporation that promotes war will also be a legitimate target for our intervention. We simply call ourselves Celestial Being. We are an armed organization that was established to eliminate all acts of war from this world. I repeat..."
