Chapter 3 : The Queen of the Void, and The Crusaders

Royal Blades, originally a mercenary group hailed from the land of Britain, they have a long history of joining many wars that took part in Europe. They were known for their cruelty on the battlefield, although they were weak in numbers, their equipment was strong, and their fighting style inspired horror into their opponents. They even go as far as burning the corpses of the enemies after a battle ends to make sure there are no survivors.

After the second world war, their leader was killed and replaced by Ravenblood, who was sent to take control of this group by Schicksal. Although proven useful and effective in war against both humans and Honkai, Otto Apocalypse still despises Ravenblood and the Royal Blades, because Ravenblood himself sometimes orders his men to kill civilians who might have been exposed to the Honkai Infection.

Not only that, the Royal Blades would often have conflicts with other units of Schicksal when they try to protect the civilians, many Valkyries and equipment have been broken by them.

To get things short, Ravenblood and his legion would be the only one you don't wanna see on the battlefield, while Marika is the exact opposite of that.

Schicksal's HQ.

In the Overseer's office. Otto has already put his cock to sleep, and now he is waiting for Ravenblood. The master of that lunatic legion is always late. But Otto could not refuse his request to meet him.

Because he might just run off to somewhere without control and... yeah.

"My glorious overseer... I, Ravenblood have returned from another mission you had given to me." - Ravenblood stepped into the office, and as always, there's some dark aura around him, with the smell of blood... "I tried my best not to kill the innocents... But the hive was found in a house, who knows if they could have been..."

"This is probably the 1000th time I've told you that we could cure Honkai infection, if we still have time and the exposure is not serious." - Otto stood up and slammed his hand on the desk, which made Ravenblood kneeled down.

"My apologies, my lord. But I could not risk letting my men be exposed to Honkai infection, the damage to our legion will surely damage Schicksal's power as well."

As much as Otto wants to argue with him, is how much sense Ravenblood is making. Although he despises the Royal Blades, they are still the blade of Schicksal for now, only second to Valkyries.

"Fine. But in return, your men and you will be punished in the near future. Now, what is the problem this time, that you are required to meet me?" - Otto asked him as he sat down.

Ravenblood stood up and took out a video tape from his pocket.

"We have interrogated one of the Honkai cultists that we have caught... He died due to blood loss but we had useful information from him." - Ravenblood said as he put the tape on the desk.

"..."

"It is no normal info, my lord. You should see it by yourself."

"Very well, Ravenblood. Still, the punishment will come soon, now get out of my sight, you'll be tasked to a new mission soon." - Otto said.

"Roger." - Ravenblood turned around, but before he did completely, he turned back to Otto and asked : "... I heard Hyperion is looking for a new Captain, if they want, they can always join the Royal Blades-"

Ravenblood noticed Y/n's files on Otto's desk, he grabbed the file ruthlessly and read it.

"Sorry but we have already chosen another person for that position, and he has proven quite effective with his duty on his first day, I guess you won't need to be worried about that for now, Ravenblood."

".... He took down a Honkai worshiper... This... A cultist boarded the sacred Hyperion? There must be filthy traitors there now... Who has done this." - Ravenblood said then he turned around. "Or maybe the Captain himself was in touch with these filthy heretics."

Ravenblood rushes outside the office, Otto's words did not reach him in time.

"Wait! Shit!" - Otto punched the desk, which woke his cock up. "That bastard... He's gonna cause some severe damage to Hyperion! Amber!"

Back to Hyperion.

"Goodnight Captain."

"Good Night."

The evening was pretty chill after all, there's nothing much to mention except for the flying tentacle thingy in the cafeteria from earlier. But yeah, there's nothing else to say here.

You go to your room. You opened the lights and closed the door. The bed is nice, the pillow is cold and very soft. However, instead of going to sleep, you took out a notebook from your crate of things and a pen too.

"Time to write my diary... This should help me in the future, hopefully." - You said as you write the first line on the first page of the diary : "The First Day on Hyperion"

And started to write about the overview of your day here, on this brand new ship, in a brand new regiment. Completely strange to you, you hoped that things will work well for you.

You turned off the lights and went to bed. It's been a while since you can go to sleep early with ease.

"..."

However, this strange feeling of an easy life is not familiar to someone like you. You turned over and over, like a fish on a frying pan.

"... Maybe I'll need a drink instead..." - You got up and turned the lights on.

You see a Jeanstealer, stealing your Jeans.

"..."

"..."

You and the Jeanstealer stare at each other for a while. Then you pull out a pistol.

Meanwhile, Hyperion's torture room.

Smacking noises could be heard even if you're not in the room, there's some brutal beating up inside that room now, and no one would wish to enter, they'd like to keep their eyes away from the scene.

"Alright... We got a tough one here don''t we?" - A man was beating the Honkai cultist, who is strapped to the chair, said as he wiped his sweats.

"Keep going Lieutenant, we got all night for this, isn't that right, Major Himeko?" - Another soldier inside the room asked Himeko, who is sitting on a chair in the corner of the room.

"Yeah. And take that mouth gag off from him of course... you forgot to take it off." - Himeko said as she pointed to the Honkai cultist.

"Ah... fuck. My bad dude, sorry lots." - The man took the mouth gag out of the mouth of the cultist. "Jeez, some teeth of his got on here."

"Where? Damn that's brutal. Did he swallow any of them?" - The soldier came to check and asked.

"Hopefully not..."

"You... insignificant....shit...." - The Honkai cultist mumbles.

"If you want to say something, speak louder. Or I will beat you harder." - The man said as he get behind the chair, and grabbed the cultist by his shoulder.

"...soon... Her majesty will bring doom... to mankind... she is... preparing... although there were casualties... But we will not fail..."

"Who do you serve?" - The man asked.

The cultist breathes heavily, as if he's trying really hard to speak these words out.

"The one... and the true ruler... of the Void..." - The cultist said. "Haha.... Hahahaha..." - Followed up is his exhausted, weak laugh.

"..." - Himeko stood up. "Alright, leave him there, we'll prepare a cell for him tomorrow. We have identified who our enemy is."

"Roger."

The soldier put a blindfold on the cultist, then they left the room, and locked the door from the outside.

"Who is this enemy you spoke of, Major?" - The man asked.

"... The Second Herrscher, Her Highness, Empress of the Void, The Chosen Child, Queen of the Void, The Herrscher that almost Brought Doom to Mankind... Herrscher of the Void. She has been missing for the past 10 years... now she came back once more... we must make merry in pursuing her."

"Why the fuck are there so many nicknames for people in this fic..." - The soldier mumbles.

"Herrscher of the Void, you say?" - They heard your voice, and immediately saw that you were standing by the window in the hallway. "I've heard that name before."

"Captain, I thought you'd have gone to bed by now." - Himeko said.

"Couldn't sleep. Too comfortable is a problem for me." - You scratch your hair as you approach them. "Tell me more about this Queen of the Void..."

Around 3 hours later, at Schicksal's HQ.

Marika and the Valkyries who went with her have returned safely, no casualties were taken, and now they are resting.

Marika's room, on which the walls are full of Theresa Apocalypse's posters. The desks are filled with books that have Theresa's pictures as covers. She even has some Theresa plushies in her room.

To sum it up, Marika's room is all about Theresa Apocalypse. Under her bed lies a hidden passage, which leads to a mysterious room.

Only Marika knows of this room, and she has brought someone there with her this time.

"Mmmm!!! Mmmm!!!"

It is a girl, who is tied up, Marika uses tapes to strap the girl to the chair.

"Alright, stop resisting. I can't let you go around and tell everyone about my secret..." - Marika said as she slowly removed the tape which covered the girl's mouth.

The girl was the Valkyrie from before. Who is captured by Marika.

"I swear I'm not gonna tell anyone about this! I wo- wo- won't ruin your image in everyone's perspectives!" - The girl said, she is terrified because Marika may do some fistin' to her if she does not cooperate.

"What? No no, I don't care if everyone knows. I actually want people to know how much I love Theresa... hah... hah..." - The girl saw some thirsty expression on Marika's face.

"......"

"I'm just a bit awkward about it... but don't worry, nothing can stop my love for her!"

"Um... so why am I here?"

"Oh uhm... Actually I think I need some help, these days I feel like... watching Thersa from distance and doing some unholy thing to myself at night while watching her picture isn't-"

"What the faq"

"-enough for me, so I kinda... Well, you know, get closer to her."

"Oooh... Uhm... I see." - The girl said then she looked around, to see if she could find a way out. "Say, have you talked to her before?"

"Eh- Eh, no no. I mean, what? No! Of course not! She is so cute that whenever I see her from a distance I feel like that enough and she sometimes looks over to me too so I am very grateful for my existence to have been discovered by her so I am not just a rock to her."

"This girl is down so bad." - The girl thought. "Well, you said it isn't enough so why don't you try to talk to her?"

Marika then looked at the girl, as if she was looking at a retard.

"..."

"I thought I made myself clear, looking at her is enough."

"...Okkaayyyy."

"But at the same time it is not enough."

"God damn it."

The next morning, at one of Schicksal's bases.

"Brothers! I believe that Hyperion is in connection with some filthy cultists!" - Ravenblood said to his troops, who had gathered there under his command.

"Oh no, the Hyperion itself... the spearhead of Schicksal?" - One of the Royal Blades' members said.

"Yes, there is this guy who has been promoted as their Captain just a few days ago! Although there was no solid proof, yet, I believe that he has something to do with the filthy worshippers of Honkai..."

"...."

"Even though it means that we have to fight against the most skilled soldiers of mankind, we shall not surrender, for it is our duty to protect humanity! Even though we have to drown our hands in blood! Let all the sins be weighed on our shoulders! So none would have walked the path we do!" - Ravenblood said, encouraging all of his soldiers.

Their war chants could be heard all over the base.

Ravenblood drew his infamous sword out, The Dawn of Blood, and pointed to the sky.

"WE SHALL BEGIN OUR CRUSADE, TO HYPERION!" - Ravenblood yelled.

His men raised their weapons with him.

"Commander Commander! There is an unknown legion calling for our aid in the Western regions! They are under attack by some beasts!" - A Blades' soldier came in and informed Ravenblood.

"Very well then, brothers! Pack your stuff! We shall gather some more in number and power, for our crusade to Hyperion!" - Ravenblood said.

Then the Royal Blades left the base to the western regions, it is said to be their greatest crusade yet.

Meanwhile, somewhere on the fricking Moon.

"My Queen, your minions have suffered 13% casualties in number, their combat efficiency remains at 80% due to morale loss." - A cultist, wearing a dark robe, reported to some figure sitting on an old throne, in the ruins of the Moon. "Our intelligence said that Hyperion has selected another Captain... And he has proven to be a potential threat to our cause in the future."

"..."

The figure who sits upon the throne did not respond, she only stares at the cultist, as if she is looking at a lowly insect. The pressure from her gaze alone would have been enough to bring anyone down to their knees, if they are aware of who she is.

"Tell Benares... To destroy Hyperion." - The Queen of the Void, who sits on the throne, said. "Show them why I am still their most fearsome enemy, and remind them of what I have done to them."

"Roger." - The cultist went away from the throne room.

The Queen has finally made her move, after a long time, and is ready to inspire fear to the world. By sending her executioner, Benares.

Back in Schicksal's HQ, Otto office.

"... It is with... only honesty... That I tell you... Filthy humans... Who rejects her majesty... Soon... You shall meet your end... We, her followers have been blessed with a fragment of her true power...

Now we harness the power of the void...

Even though it ruins... Our very own flesh... But anything it takes... For her majesty...

....."

The man on the recording tape coughs really hard.

".... Soon... When mankind is put into their place... all... bowed to her... we shall be rewarded.... not with an eternity life....

not with any power...

But... the smell of her toes...

Haha...hahah...."

The record ends there, Otto patting his cock and think about things.

"... People are down bad these days, am I right?" - Otto asked his cock.

End of Chapter 3.

Random recorded deaths of previous Captains :

There was this time during vacation the Captain was all alone on Hyperion and there were some rabid dogs somehow made it into Hyperion and... yeah... ya know. 

Spoilers for next part : Human Resource Department.
