Honkai, I stand in the first row where strength is paramount

"Yes, this is you, my Messiah..."

Yuno smiled softly, and she looked at her affectionately, with tenderness in her eyes.

Release emotions, divert attention...

The girl used all means to suppress the growing hole in her heart, just to keep herself from killing the person in front of her while she had a sliver of reason.

She ran forward with all her life, just to stay where she was for a while.

Student Mei must have noticed the problem, right?You really deserve to be the top student among us.

To be honest, I still need to improve my acting skills, at least at my level, because it's too easy to see flaws.

But Messiah is really naive, to say that Honkai is a good person?

I bet, when she recalls that she said such a thing in the future, she will definitely destroy her intestines.

......

'boom--! '

After the loud noise, Yuno, who was standing in the middle of the playground, let the girls supporting each other disappear at the corner of the teaching building.

She lowered her head, staring expressionlessly at the core of Parvanti in her hand emitting a flow of ice particles, opened her small mouth, and swallowed it in one gulp.

Except for "Vishnu", no one Houkai beast has the power to devour other Houkai beasts, even the pseudo Herrscher and the real Herrscher.

but--

Forget it, although swallowing the core of the Honkai beast rashly will bring some unknown sequelae, it can also extract the Honkai energy more quickly.Next, just find a place where there is no one to complete the transformation, and then return here to kill those two people.

'Yuno' thought silently.

Although there will be a side effect of accelerating the transformation, at least in this way, the fire-type divine fire trial can cause fatal damage to me who is currently in a bad state.

Forcibly suppressing the pain of icy energy running around in the body, Yuno happily walked into the teaching building, looking for the hiding place of the two people.

When I am chasing the light, I walk with the light.

Messiah, I'm coming for you.

......

On the fourth floor of the teaching building, outside the laboratory, Yuno leaned against the wall, listened to Mei's extremely serious explanation, and smiled softly.

Thank you, student Mei.

Thank you for taking my defense so seriously, it's been great to be friends with you.

But please remember to keep your voice down next time. With you like this, won’t I be able to completely extinguish Messiah’s last hesitation to kill me in a targeted conversation?

Think about it for a while, how to refute Mei's reasoning.

"Messiah, tell me, how far can she fly after being attacked by at least 340M/S and penetrating through a [-]cm thick concrete wall?"

"It's zero! "

"From——to—!"

The answer is actually [-]%, at least for Mei, it is [-]%.

But I lied to you, stupid Messiah.

And in the future, I will continue to lie to you.

Because if you don't let people cheat you, you will have big problems sooner or later.

This should be regarded as an early reduction, right?

......

"Eh? Don't you ask what happened to the phrase "I used to like you"?I am most looking forward to your questioning this sentence! "

As expected of you, to be able to do this——

what!Just kidding~

Even with the help of the "Shenhuo Trial", if people don't release the water, how could you surprise me in front of me?

On the rooftop, Yuno, who twirled the umbrella handle to cover her cheeks, smiled secretly.

"...Yuno from the past is dead." Messiah whispered as if making a decision with the past, holding a trial of divine fire, "You are just a monster who kills innocent people indiscriminately."

Yes, that's it.

So before I become like that, kill me this monster, become a hero, and lead people to defeat Honkai once and for all.

You can definitely do it.

Because you are MESSIAH, you were born to be the savior.

"Are you sure? Maybe I have the kind of dual personality that Mei classmate deduced!"

The Poison Imitation Herrscher said softly: "Perhaps the real her is trapped in my body by the big villain at this moment, howling and howling, waiting for her favorite childhood sweetheart like the prince in the fairy tale. Overcome the thorns and thorns, and liberate her from the boundless silt of suffering."

"That's Yuno! The Yuno who has always been with you; the Yuno who has always been by your side and did not hesitate to fall out with his family because of it; the Yuno who gave up her life as a rich lady and transferred you to this strange city, Yuno who lived in a dormitory that he didn't even look at once, and had to work to save money to make ends meet after school; the Yuno who knew you had a fiancée and someone you really liked, but still forced a smile on his face and pretended to be nonchalant .”

"I say, Messiah—"

The Poison Imitation Herrscher grinned, and showed an incomparably vicious smile at the white-haired girl who charged in front of her holding the Divine Fire Trial:

"Even so, you still want to abandon her and pierce her heart with the big sword in your hand?"

"Are you willing to?"

The great sword that was about to pierce Yuno's heart stopped.

You really don't want to.

The Pseudo-Herserscher personality laughed, and she won.

Yuno also smiled, she looked at the big sword resting on her chest, stretched out her hands, and grasped the scorching blade.

No, look, I have paid so much for you idiot before.

"Yuno! Wait a minute!"

'Pfft! '

The sound of the divine fire trial piercing through the body, and Mei's urgent cry resounded through the world at the same time.

Then, it’s not too strange to sacrifice another life for you, right?

The girl whose chest was pierced by the great sword thought briskly.

Chapter 180 [-]·"Humanity will definitely defeat Honkai!"

Whether it was the sudden power coming from the Shenhuo trial or Mei's heart-piercing cry, Messiah was caught off guard at this time.

She stared blankly at her childhood sweetheart who had her chest pierced in front of her, and opened her mouth, but she didn't know what to say.

At this moment, Yuno, who was on the verge of death, spoke first: "Messiah, I'm really happy that you can stop your attack."

As she spoke, she moved the umbrella in her hand slightly forward to block the rain from the rain cloud on Messiah.

At the price of getting wet all over.

The two diametrically opposed energies of blasting flames and cold ice scurry through her body at the same time, like sulfuric acid injected into the body of an ordinary human being, greatly destroying the already disorganized tendons due to the piercing of the heart.

She couldn't survive, but she was happy.

Because at that moment, Messiah really stopped attacking.

Even though she committed such a crime, she still stopped attacking.

That's good, but it's not good either.

On the battlefield of the confrontation with the Houkai, the fleeting hesitation will kill people's lives.

She didn't want Messiah to lose her life for this reason after she left.

She didn't want her to die. After death, she would never see the person she liked again.

So, she said: "—Sorry, I still can't pretend anymore."

Yes, I know that I should continue to pretend to be a villain now, so that the naive and foolish in front of me can experience the cruelty of this world.

But even though he had already made a draft in his heart, when the words came to his lips, he still turned into this appearance.

I can't pretend anymore, I can't be cruel.

After all, Yuno is just a 17-year-old ordinary high school student.

She is not a warrior, and she cannot protect the reputation of everyone in Erica Town without hesitating to infamy herself after death like Xier.

She couldn't be like her before she died, alone facing the snowy sky, whispering words of concern for her loved one.

The person she loves is right in front of her eyes...

"—Yuno? What the hell is going on?!"

Messiah, who let go of her sword hilt, staggered back a few steps and looked at the girl in front of her in disbelief.

She really didn't understand what happened, or guessed it, but instinctively denied this possibility in her heart.

"Let go of your weapon before you're sure the enemy is completely dead, Messiah, you've made another mistake... cough cough!"

The spit out blood vaporized in mid-air, and Yuno still gently pointed out Messiah's shortcomings.

The dark blue thorn rope wrapped around the flaming sword, making a crackling sound.

But unlike the one-touch break just now, this time, they are intact.

This is the normal state. If it wasn't for the girl's desperate suppression, how could the mortal flames burn down the thorns that symbolize human sin?

Thorn returned the great sword to the white-haired girl, but she didn't take it, but looked at Mei standing aside in panic, as if she wanted to find an answer.

"Is there anything else to say?" Mei took off her glasses, which were blurred by the rain, and threw them aside. She raised her head and let the rain hit her face. "Yuno did it on purpose from the very beginning."

She deliberately wanted to die at your hands.

If you don't, she will become no longer her, and you will die at the hands of 'Yuno' who is no longer Yuno.

That was worse than death for her.

The harm between the two is the lesser, it is more uncomfortable than death and death, so Yuno naturally chooses the easier one.
