(Patrick's point of view)

(???)

I woke up to find myself on grass and in a forest. I sat up and found myself still in my Herrscher form.

Patrick: Where am I? Am I still in Inazuma? All I remember is fighting against Scaramouche then Kiana using her void portal and getting me out of there. I better fly up and find out.

So I stood up then I flew up into the sky to get a better look once I was high enough, my eyes turned pale white from the sight. I was in...

Gamninjustri.

Patrick: Of course... it had to be this world... I better find Neptune and Asuka... Where should I go? ... I know. I'll go to Heartland.

So I flew in the direction of Heartland.

Patrick: I wonder where the others are?

All of a sudden, blue blasts shot at me and I materialized the pink energy shield Rho Aias to block the blasts.

Patrick: Of course... it had to be them. I barely even know what they're called. Now I have no choice but to fight.

I did a drop attack and damaged them. Then I summoned Archer's swords and did a combo attack with fire and lightning. More robots show up.

Patrick: I'm seriously going to have to fight all of them?

???: You don't have to.

???: Because you have help.

Two persons slashed through several robots and they exploded.

They reveal to be Asuka and Purple Heart.

Patrick: Glad that they got here just in time.

Purple Heart: Fill us in later.

Asuka: After we've taken care of these creeps.

Patrick: Fine.

Asuka and Purple Heart used their special ninja attacks and finished off half while I used my powerful moves and finished off the other half. I breathed then greeted them.

Patrick: Hello Neptune... Asuka...

They change back and so do I. But I did not put the trench coat back in as I didn't need to wear it right now.

Neptune: So what brings you here? Aren't you supposed to be in Teyvat?

Asuka: Showing up here out of the blue is just unexpected.

Patrick: Well my friends and I were fighting against this really strong foe, I got angry after he said insults about a friend that got killed then I beat him up but then this purple haze enveloped me and Aether and we got weaker and we're dying from the affects of the haze. Then the Valkyries tried to fight him but they let his insults get the better of them and gave into their rage and anger. So Kiana used her Void powers to get us away but did not get all of us out. I caught a glimpse of Yae Miko entering in before I enter red through the Void portal. Perhaps the haze must have affected Kiana's Void abilities.

Asuka: Who was it that did this to you?

Patrick: His name is Scaramouche.

Neptune: Scaramouche? From "Samurai Jack"?

Patrick: No! A different Scaramouche. The 6th Fatui Harbinger. The Balladeer.

Neptune: Oh... I knew that...

Asuka: No you didn't. Anyway, come with us back to Heratland.

Patrick: Thats exactly where I was flying to before getting attacked.

(???)

Mei woke up. She found herself in a forest still in her Herrscher form. She sat up.

Mei: Where am I?

All of a sudden bandits rose from the bushes to attack her. Mei got scared but then chains came in and killed them all. Dropping from the trees was a blonde haired boy. Mei recognized him...

Kurapika.

Mei: Kurapika.

Kurapika: Mei.

Mei stood up.

Mei: Thank you for saving me.

Kurapika: Anything for a person with the same voice as me. What exactly are you doing here?

Mei: I was battling this strong foe with my friends but he beat us and Kiana had to use her Void powers to get us out of there. But it looks like the haze the Balladeer used must have had a side affect to Kiana's Void portal and it must have thrown me into the "Hunter X Hunter" world.

Kurapika: Stick with me till you can find a way to get back to Teyvat.

Mei: Gladly.

(???)

Theresa woke up to find herself on a floating platform in some kind of space where she saw crystals floating all around.

She stood up.

Theresa: Where am I?... Is this the Sea of Fragments?...

???: Yes... Yes it is.

Theresa turned and saw a little girl in a shrine maiden outfit and with light indigo hair.

Rika Furude.

Theresa: Rika!

Rika: Theresa!

Both the lolis rush in and Hug each other. Then they grin and say

Theresa and Rika: Nipah~

Then they separate.

Rita: How did you get here?

Theresa: From Kiana's Void Portal after she helped me escape from Scaramouche.

(???)

Bronya woke up to find herself by a waterfall. Project Bunny lifted her up and held her by it's left arm.

Bronya: Where is... the Bronya...?

???: Bronya?

Project Bunny turned and Bronya saw the other Kuudere.

Blanc.

Bronya: Blanc?

Blanc: You're in Gamninjustri. My game was released.

Bronya: Oh...

Bronya returned to normal but changed into the same outfit Blanc was wearing. Even Project Bunny changed back.

Bronya: The Bronya got angry and raged out again, this time on another Harbinger. Scaramouche. But he used a haze on us that feeds on anger that nearly killed us then Idiotka used her Void powers so some of us could get away. Now the Bronya needs portal to get back to Teyvat.

Blanc: Follow me.

(Narukami Shrine)

Aether was waking up to see Yae Miko.

Yae Miko: Repeat after me. "Three, two, one, one, two, three, ahhhh, ahhhh." Come on.

Aether: Three, two, one, one, two, three, ahhhh, ahhhh.

Yae Miko: Okay, that's positive. Your brain seems relatively unscathed, this is good news.

Aether stood up and noticed the Valkyries and Captain and ELFS waking up too. Sakura, Kallen, Higokumaru, Selune's Elgy, and Tamamo No Mae we're the only ones who did not get affected by the haze. Even Fu Hua and Book of Fuxi did not get affected by the haze. The reason was because they did not get angry.

Yae Miko: It's just as well, really, with the amount of effort it took me to get you back here. Honestly, it was like you were glued to the ground back there.

Sakura: She had help from us.

Fu Hua: We've had to carry a lot of unconscious people back here.

Paimon: Uh, Miko, Paimon's been wanting to ask you about something. How come you're acting so differently from when we first met you?

Yae Miko: Am I? Maybe it's because I had the other shrine maidens leave. Anyway, I've always been like this. People show you whatever side of themselves they want you to see. I know this for a fact. Every side of me is the real me. People just like to define things in all sorts of arbitrary ways.

Sakura: I've seen all her sides.

Yae Miko: This is a human society — at the moment, anyway — and I'm just doing as I please.

Paimon: Uh... Paimon didn't quite follow.

Yae Miko: Hehe, study humans a while longer, my little friend. You'll see what I mean.

Aether: How did you do it? How did you save us from The Balladeer?

Paimon: Right! Paimon was so focused on the Traveler that Paimon didn't notice what you did to get Scaramouche off our backs...

Tamamo: Well...

Yae Miko: What if I told you it was a secret art from the Grand Narukami Shrine, and that I had The Balladeer down on his knees begging for mercy in an instant... Would you believe me?

Aether: ...

Yae Miko: Hehe, well, maybe you should be worrying less about that and more about how exactly you are going to thank me... no? Hmm, maybe some of your neural circuitry is less intact than I thought...

Sakura: Actually it's a bit more complicated... After you all lost consciousness, Tamamo pushed him back with her noble phantasm. Fu Hua beat him up with her punches but Scaramouche did something and caused her to cough out blood and get sent flying out of the room. He also defeated the ELFs. Then Miko did a secret move that sent him retreating. Then Tamamo healed Fu Hua then we brought you all back here.

Tamamo: It didn't really take us long to get back here. We were able to get back here without breaking a sweat. Mikon~

Yae Miko: Hehehehehehehe. Please don't. You'll embarrass me.

Aether: Thank you ever so much, Yae-sama.

Yae Miko: I didn't mean you had to be so formal about it. I need your actions, not your words, hehe.

Durandal: It is great that we were saved. But I still lost half my power. I've been weakened.

Sakura: Durandal, you may have lost your power but you'll be able to get it back once you do your usually training and you'll be able to get your strength back.

Durandal: I suppose that is true. After all this is over, I think Im gonna go on a training journey.

Durandal: (We've seriously tried to go against the plot this time. Scaramouche still won and Miko was the one who saved us.)

Rita: Now now Durandal-sama, you'll get stronger again. We know you will. You still have me and the others by your side.

Durandal: Thank you Rita.

Yae Miko: The Delusions... they're still on your mind, aren't they?

Aether: Yes... What happened next?

Kiana: What happened after you saved us?

Yae Miko: You needn't worry. The leader of Watatsumi Island took some troops to clear the place out. She's also issued a strict ban on the use of Delusions across the whole army.

Sakura: And they're confiscating the Delusions too.

Seele: At least that's good to hear.

Rita: The army can be safe from the Fatui.

Yae Miko: With their stronghold exposed, I doubt The Balladeer is stubborn enough to try and retaliate now on his colleagues' behalf. It would be more trouble than it's worth. Ah, I must say, I would relish the opportunity to watch the Fatui getting a taste of their own medicine...

Sakura: Especially after what they did to Mondstadt and Liyue with trying to kill Dvalin and trying to destroy Liyue Harbor with Osial.

Kallen: At least in some part of Inazuma we were able to prove that the Fatui are criminals.

Yae Miko: Well anyway, that Sangonomiya Kokomi, she really outdid herself this time. I'd love to have another chat with her again in person, but alas... belief systems can be such a hindrance sometimes.

Paimon: A hindrance? Should you really be saying that as the guuji of the Grand Shrine!?

Sakura: I'm afraid so. She needs to.

Yae Miko: Anyway. I'm only telling you this to stop you worrying, so that you can focus... on something I need you to do for me.

Kiana: First I need to go get the others I've sent away. It won't take long. I can find them with my Void portals.

Kiana opened a Void Portal

Yae Miko: Very well. I can wait to tell you what I need.

Kiana: Thank you.

Kiana steps through then closes the portal.

(Gamninjustri)

Bronya and I and all the other heroines of "Neptunia X Senran Kagura: Ninja Wars" we're at this place called Kumotsu Shrine where IF was it's shrine maiden. Even Histoire and CPU Candidates were there too.

Patrick: I was hoping that Scaramouche would become a boss but he did not. Someone else was going to be a boss. Another nation in and already MiHoYo decided to kill off an NPC we were getting to know well.

Bronya: Scaramouche tricked us and set up trap. Now we have to wait longer to fight against him as a boss.

Compa: Oh please. Don't feel down just because you lost to someone who had a trap with haze. We've been in situations like that before.

Neptune: Yeah. And we always got back up.

Bronya: You never had to try to resist against a haze that feeds on anger and kills you.

Patrick: Scaramouche in "Genshin Impact" is worst than Scaramouche from "Samurai Jack".

An imagination cloud appeared above me. It showed "Samurai Jack" Scaramouche wearing "Genshin Impact" Scaramouche's clothing.

Scaramouche (Samurai Jack): What up babe! It is me! Scaramouche The Merciless! Aku's #1 favorite assassin bounty hunter! Yeah baby yeah! Woo!

Scaramouche (Genshin Impact): Oh shut up.

Lightning makes Scaramouche from "Samurai Jack" explodes then Scaramouche from "Genshin Impact" comes on.

Scaramouche (Genshin Impact): I'm far way better than you.

Then the imagination cloud went poof.

Neptune: Ahahahahahahahahahahahahaha! That's so funny! Hahahahaha!

Histoire and Noire: Neptune!

Neptune: Sorry. Just wanted to laugh and thought it was funny.

Bronya: There could be more characters with similarities from other characters from different cartoons, movies, Anime, and video games.

Patrick: Aether gave into his anger after Teppei died and fell for Scaramouche's trap with the haze. MiHoYo might kill more NPCs Aether and Paimon will make friends with.

Bronya: And let the Fatui win again.

IF: Stop complaining! both of you! We know how you both feel but you can't tell a good story without the negatives to go with the positives.

Homura: Sometimes heroes have to lose and sometimes villains have to win.

Noire: Most people find villains winning interesting. It maybe wrong to kill off characters but most people are fine with characters getting killed off.

Yumi: And after a hero loses, they never give up. They get back up and beat the villain.

Blanc: When there is a wall you break through it and break more walls.

Miyabi: You just have to accept with what's happened and what content creators do with their works, their characters, and their plot story lines

Vert: We know it's hard but it's the right thing to do. You have to get used to it.

Nepgear: You want revenge. But sometimes revenge is wrong.

Uni: And so is killing. Sometimes it's necessary to kill evil people.

Rom: But never get so violent.

Ram: And don't get reckless either.

Patrick: After what La Signora did to Venti and Zhongli, I can't stop thinking about killing her. After Childe was used and tricked by her, I was somewhat able to forgive him but I still see him as an enemy. Now Bronya and I are stuck here. It's not like Kiana is going to find us with her Void portals.

After I said that, a black portal with orange outlines appeared and the heroines prepared to fight. Stepping out of the portal was Kiana.

Kiana: Sorry for the wait. It took us a while to regain consciousness before we ended up back at Narukami Shrine. So I came here to bring you back. Hehe.

Neptune: Oh... thought you were a threat at first but ok...

Patrick: Well... guess now we have to go now.

Bronya: Nice seeing you again.

Bronya and I walked to Kiana while waving goodbye to the others.

Histoire: We wish you luck on your journeys. Take care.

Patrick: We will Histoire.

Then the three of us walked through the portal before it closed.

Neptune: How nice of them to pay a visit to us.

Asuka: Yeah. It was a nice visit.

(Hunter X Hunter world)

Mei walked by Kurapika as she told him everything.

Kurapika: So Scaramouche still won? Even when it was all of you against him?

Mei: Yes. He won because of his haze. If we had just been calmer then we would have won against the Balladeer. Those insults he said to me made Kiana angry. If he had done anything to Kiana I would of gotten angry and the haze would of taken it's affect on me to.

Kurapika: Now don't feel bad about yourself. There have been villains I've been unable to defeat but somehow I was able to beat them.

Mei: You don't know how I felt when I lost against Sirin and when I lost against Durandal. I was weak.

Kurapika: But then you were able to beat Benares, Raven, and that time robot allowing you to transform into the Herrscher of Thunder again. And you were able to block the Raiden Shogun's Musou no Hitotachi. You can't let losing against Scaramouche get to you. Understand.

Mei: ... ...You're right... Kurapika. I must keep going.

Mei changed back to normal. And after she did, a Void portal opened and out stepped Kiana, Bronya, and I.

Kiana: Mei-senpai!

Patrick: Good thing you're okey.

Bronya: Now let's go.

Kurapika: You better get going, Mei. You've got a journey to continue.

Mei: I know Kurapika. But thank you again.

Mei walks to the portal and waves goodbye to Kurapika.

Mei: See you!

Then the 4 friends walk through the portal before Kiana closes it.

Kurapika: It is true that I have the same Japanese voice as Mei and the Raiden Shogun, but in English I have the same voice as Venti.

(Sea of Shards)

The 4 friends arrive in the Sea of Shards where they found Theresa.

Theresa: We'll I better go now. Nipah~

Rika: See you soon. Nipah~

Theresa went with us through the portal before it closed.

(Void Space)

We found Himeko in Void Space then we found the twins Liliya and Rozaliya in the Sea of Quanta.

Kiana: Ok that's everyone. Let's head back to Narukami Shrine.

(No point of view)

(Narukami Shrine)

They returned back to Narukami Shrine.

Kiana: We're back! It wasn't that hard to find them.

Yae Miko: Thank you.

Yae Miko filled them in and everyone was caught up.

Aether: What do you need?

Yae Miko: You've... met her, right?

Aether: You mean the Raiden Shogun?

Kiana: Yes, at the ceremony...

Yae Miko: I'm not talking about the puppet. I mean... her. You've met her, yes?

Aether: You mean... inside?

Kiana: In that... place?

Yae Miko: Yes. The true Raiden Shogun, who meditates endlessly in the Plane of Euthymia to preserve her being...

Sakura: Her name is not Raiden Shogun or Baal.

Yae Miko: Her name is "Ei."

Sakura: Raiden Ei.

Kallen: Without the "M" in her name like Mei.

Mei: So she almost has the same name as me only with one letter off.

Paimon: Are you saying that the one we met at the ceremony was just a puppet? And the real Raiden Shogun is the one that the Traveler and others met later?

Mei: So the Electro Archon we fought inside that place was inside cut off from the outside world?

Sakura: Yes. Ei is cut off from the outside world and she never leaves her Plane of Euthymia.

Paimon: And does that mean that when the battlefield changed... so did the opponent?

Aether: There were some subtle differences.

Mei: But why go to such lengths?

Yae Miko: Because this is the Raiden Shogun's eternity. Before pursuing the eternity of her nation, she had to reach eternity for herself.

Yae Miko: Since the physical body will eventually turn to dust, she replaced hers with that of a puppet.

Sakura: And if she decides to leave the Plane of Euthymia she places her spirit in the puppet.

Yae Miko: And since the spirit is susceptible to erosion, she placed her consciousness inside her sword, where she remains in a meditative state, free from all disturbances.

Paimon: So, that place that she carved open with her sword...

Yae Miko: The Plane of Euthymia. Essentially, the world inside her mind. A place that typically only allows her existence.

Fu Hua: So it is different from when I use my Fenghuang Down when I create my own realities.

Patrick: And when I use the Unlimited Blade Works to create my own realities.

Yae Miko: She shuts herself off in her inner world, leaving all the affairs of the outside world to be dealt with by a puppet who has a singular focus on the pursuit of eternity... ...This is the approach Ei has come up with for realizing eternity.

Fu Hua: Well she doesn't have an immortal body that can't turn to dust like my immortal body. I have lived for 50,000 years and I've avoided turning into dust.

Aether: Zhongli also mentioned erosion.

Fu Hua: It's one reason why he stepped down.

Yae Miko: You mean Morax? It's been a while since I last saw him. A surprising decision by Liyue's archon... what a fascinating god he is.

Sakura: She knows about the Archons' other identities.

Paimon: It seems like the Raiden Shogun's approach solves the problem Zhongli was facing though...

Yae Miko: Hehe, perhaps... or you could take the view that she's acting like a little child, throwing a temper tantrum and locking herself in her room. Don't you think?

Mei: It could be.

Yae Miko: The grand notion of eternity she once held has long since given way to the eternity of her own definition. And ultimately, her eternity is defined by fear... the fear of loss.

Aether: I'm still not sure what you want me to do.

Sakura: We're getting to that now.

Yae Miko: The truth is... we are on the same side.

Yae Miko: You want to save the people of Inazuma from the Vision Hunt Decree. So do I. The only difference is that I'd rather like to save this nation and save Ei while we're at it.

Sakura: And to stop the Fatui.

Tamamo: She has no part in the war but she wants to end the Vision Hunt Decree too but with our help.

Yae Miko: The key is that the Plane of Euthymia represents Ei's inner world. Defeat her there and you may well have the chance to shake the Raiden Shogun's will.

Paimon: So this is your plan to abolish the Vision Hunt Decree? Not by talking her out of it, or through an armed resistance, but by uh... hopping inside the Raiden Shogun's inner world?

Yae Miko: You're a fast learner. In short, this is the last chance to get Inazuma back on track. Otherwise, an eternity of darkness awaits.

Sakura: You are correct Paimon.

Aether: I still have one question... Why us?

Yae Miko: Don't you realize how special you are? Remember, the Plane of Euthymia is a space where only she is allowed to exist. The fact that you all could appear there tells us one crucial thing:

Kiana: What is it?

Yae Miko: That you have piqued her interest. Perhaps it's because... she has never seen an individual who is so unpredictable in the face of eternity. And that Mei looks exactly like her and has the same blood as her like how Sakura and I have the same blood.

Paimon: Has no one else ever been in there?

Yae Miko: None. No one has seen the devotee of eternity since she shut herself away. In fact, no one even knows what it looks like in there. Your existence is more than just an opportunity. It's the very key to all of this. To that I say... well done, children, you did not disappoint me after all.

Sakura: Since we can enter into her Plane of Euthymia, we have a chance.

Miko, Sakura, Higokumaru, Kallen, Selune's Elgy, and Tamamo No Mae began to leave.

Paimon: Wait, you're leaving? Where are you going?

Yae Miko: Anti-Raiden Shogun Training. I've prepared a special program, just for you. Come along now.

Sakura: Follow us. And transform into your Herrscher forms.

So the party followed then Patrick, Kiana, Mei, and Bronya transformed into their Herrscher forms. Mei was in her normal Herrscher form.

(Training area)

They arrive at the training area after wind gliding down.

Paimon: We're gonna do it here? And what's this mechanism for?

Yae Miko: Think of it as a catalyst that can reproduce the Raiden Shogun's combat moves. I made it from my own memory, which means it should be perfectly accurate — unless of course, her skills have declined.

Sakura: Of course Kallen and I gave it a try and we were able to complete the training if we ever went up against the Raiden Shogun and we did.

Tamamo: Even I and the other servants gave it a try and we all passed too. Mikon~

Kallen: And now it's your turn to use it.

Yae Miko: It'll give you a chance to figure out her moves in advance and come up with a counter strategy. That should be a big help, don't you think?

Mei: I suppose it would. Considering that I've figured out her moves after our last battle against her.

Kiana: And we'll be able to counter her moves too.

Yae Miko: The aim is to try not to get hit by the attacks. Since you've escaped certain death at her hand once already, I presume this shouldn't be more than you can handle?

Sakura: Alright Aether you go first.

Aether was hesitant to go.

Yae Miko: Hmm? What's stopping you? Not still traumatized from your last encounter, are you?

Aether: It's nothing.

Aether walks up then activates the challenge.

Sakura: Remember, the challenge is to not get hit 10 times. Get hit 10 times and you fail. Begin!

Aether's training began.

He had to avoid energy slashes, cross combinations, and bursts of electricity. Even the Shogun's finishing move

Paimon: Phew, what a workout...

Aether: It was a little challenging.

Paimon: So how come you know so much about the Raiden Shogun?

Yae Miko: Hmm, you mean me? Perhaps it's because... I'm the Electro Archon's servant.

Sakura: There is more to it than that. But it can wait.

Paimon: What!? Like Dvalin is to Barbatos? Never would have guessed by looking at you...

Fu Hua: And like the Adepti are to Morax.

Yae Miko: Hehe, it sounds like you'd be more persuaded if you saw me in my fox form?

Kiana: Very persuaded!

Aether: I'd like to see that...

Yae Miko: In your dreams.

Paimon: Ugh...

Paimon turns to the other foxes.

Paimon: What about you, Sakura? Do you have a fox form?

Sakura: I've never really transformed into a fox before but then one day, Miko showed me how to do it. I even learned how to transform into a nine tailed fox and into a bipedal nine tailed fox just like Kurama.

Higokumaru: She showed me how to do it too. I was able to turn into a little fox and into Hellmaru again.

Tamamo: I think I may have the ability to transform into a Nine tailed fox but I can also grow 8 more tails made of energy any time I want. I could also even transform into a bipedal ni te tailed fox just like Kurama too. 

Yae Miko: More curious than my appearance is the fact that she and I don't see each other anymore, wouldn't you say? "A nation to last for all eternity" is a dream that she and I both share. But I don't think that's the same thing as complete stasis. At some point, she started going down a path that became increasingly difficult for me to join her on. You know, Ei never said goodbye to me before she stepped into the Plane of Euthymia.

Sakura: She never knew why.

Yae Miko: Perhaps it's just my wishful thinking, but I think she did this deliberately, as her way of keeping our friendship eternal. By neither saying goodbye nor seeing me again, our relationship will remain forever how it was... in her mind, at least.

Aether: The Raiden Shogun is the wishful thinker here.

Mei: She has taken a very one-sided view.

Yae Miko: Since we've embarked on two very different paths to eternity, I can either continue to maintain the status quo or do whatever it takes to bring her back on track, regardless of the cost... I have chosen the latter because... if stubbornly isolating herself in the Plane of Euthymia is her idea of eternity... Then my duty as her eternal servant is to drag her back out of her own head and into the real world.

Paimon: Aw, Miko... you sound like a really great friend.

Yae Miko: Heh, I'm only telling you this so you can properly understand my plan. Could you possibly spare the sentimentality for the time being?

Mei: We could.

Yae Miko: Anyway, that's enough chit-chat. Time for Anti-Raiden Shogun Training Phase 2.

Paimon: There's a part 2!?

Yae Miko: If you get hit by the Musou no Hitotachi, that's it. It's game over. I would get training if I were you.

Aether walks back with Paimon then activates the second half of the challenge.

Sakura: Begin!

[There should be a GIF or video here. Update the app now to see it.]

The second part of the training was fighting against 10 enemies while avoiding the Shogun's attacks. Eventually, Aether was able to pass his training. Patrick went up next and used his Dragon Shield to block the attacks and the Musou No Hitotachi. He was also able to shield himself with Pyro and Electro. Kiana went next and used her Void powers to dodge all the attacks. Miko and Sakura made her train again this time not to use her Void powers. She even trained a third time in her Herrscher of Flamescion.

Mei went up next and used her Herrscher skills and abilities and was able to copy some skills from the Raiden Shogun as she memorized Ei's moves from their last battle. She even used her giant arms and giant sword and scabbard. Then Bronya went next as she had her Project Bunny do most of the fighting and materialized lasers and other weapons. Fu Hua went next and was able to dodge the attacks and defeat all 10 enemies with no sweat.

When Theresa was doing the training, she defended herself with her Oath of Judah and passed the training. Himeko was also able to dodge the Shogun's moved while also defeating the enemies. Durandal had a little difficulty as she kept forgetting that she can't instantly dodge or appear anywhere else anymore but was still able to pass. Rita was able to pass too as she used her Cryo moves. Captain had difficult with dodging as he kept getting electrocuted 7 times but was able to pass with luck. The twins with their team work were also able to pass. Now everyone had taken the challenge and all passed.

Paimon: Phew... we're finally done. How did we do?

Yae Miko: You did quite admirably. I could see your determination and your hard work.

Paimon: So do you think we're ready to beat the Raiden Shogun now?

Yae Miko: How do I put this... you're no match for her at all.

Paimon: Wait, what!? So all of this was a complete waste of time!?

Yae Miko: Hehe. You are the most important part of the plan. I know what I'm doing. You don't think I'd leave you with no chance to win at all, do you? As for the rest of you, I think only Patrick, Kiana, Mei, and Bronya can keep up with her. Because of your "Herrscher" abilities that you have.

Fu Hua: Technically I'm also a Herrscher but not exactly. A copy of me is but I am able to get authorization to be the Herrscher of Sentience.

Himeko: And technically I'm a Herrscher too. I wore the battlesuit and become the Herrscher of Flames.

Seele: And me too. I'm technically the Herrscher of Death even though I have the Stigmata and can technically transform.

Sakura: And I'm technically the Herrscher of Corruption. So in any case, most of us can keep up with Ei.

Yae Miko: Speaking of... Traveler, what do you think of the resistance army's chances?

Aether: To be honest... They're no match for her either.

Yae Miko: Hah, you're absolutely right. Perhaps they occasionally best the Shogun's Army in open battle, but when they face the Raiden Shogun herself...

Sakura: They're already dead once they try to fight against her.

Yae Miko: Considering even their Visions have been taken from them and embedded in the Statue, they are ultimately quite helpless.

Paimon: You don't have to be so blunt. The Traveler's the captain of Swordfish II, y'know!

Sakura: As are all of us too.

Yae Miko: Hehe. I don't mean to belittle them. On the contrary... It is precisely because of their helplessness, because their Visions have been taken from them, that their will is all the more precious. In short, if everything goes according to plan, they may yet prove to be helpful.

Aether: So... what is the plan?

Yae Miko: Oh... goodness, is that the time? I have another guest to receive today. We can talk more back at the Grand Narukami Shrine.

Paimon: All of a sudden you're entertaining guests!? Paimon's really struggling to understand how you work...
