Honkai Eruption Settlement in Singapore

Let's go back in time to two months ago.

Fu Hua who was focused on staring at that bright ray of light soaring the sky suddenly felt a vibration from the ground.

"What happened? "

The warning alarm sounded loudly.

She turned her head in a certain direction before her pupils shrank, she saw hundreds, no, thousands, of Honkai Beasts heading towards that ray of light.

They flocked as if impatient for something to come.

Seeing them about to approach her, Fu Hua stared at them warily, right when it would be about 10 meters away.

The shadows from the surrounding buildings condensed and widened and moved like huge waves before becoming a tsunami that crushed those Honkai Beasts.

But even so, the Honkai Beasts continued to advance even more ferociously towards the light, like moths.

Seeing that, Fu Hua then with a wary expression suddenly looked to the side, she saw Ashborn who was already nearby.

"Ashborn... What are you doing here?"

It seemed like Fu Hua was familiar with Ashborn.

"Otto told me to help you. " Ashborn pointed at the small camera in his shirt pocket.

"What about the locals? Have they been evacuated?"

"I don't know, but the task was handed over to Durandal and her team a few hours ago, so you can rest assured. "

"You'd better get out of here quickly, the concentration of Honkai energy in this place is very high and it's still growing. "

*BOOM! *

The buildings around them exploded revealing dozens of Honkai Beast type Emperor, they ravaged the entire city.

Seeing that Fu Hua wanted to use the Fenghuang Down ability before being stopped by Ashborn.

"You just need to focus on getting out of here Fu Hua, these roaches just leave it to me."

The shadows at the Honkai Beasts' feet spread and condensed before turning into countless needles that pierced the Honkai Beasts' entire bodies.

Looking at the Honkai Beasts and even more Zombies, she really wanted to leave but remembered Kouro who was currently the origin of why all these things happened.

"Ashborn, can you save my friend? He... "

Ashborn immediately interrupted her, "Do you mean that your friend is trapped in that sky-soaring light? Of course. "

Fu Hua blinked with a surprised expression as if not expecting that he accepted her request so easily, so she looked at Ashborn with a suspicious expression.

"Don't get me wrong, that friend of yours is in the process of merging with the Gem of Serenity. He seems to have the talent to become a Herrscher. "

"But in the end, talent is talent, there's a high possibility of him losing his life because of that... "

Ashborn showed her Honkai's neutralizing serum.

"He is a man who has a very rare talent, it would be a waste to let him die here. "

After saying that Ashborn's body merged with the shadow and went towards that light.

Fu Hua looked at him with a pensive expression before taking Kiana away, she didn't notice that Kiana's hand moved slightly before returning to stillness.

...

"Why are there so many Honkai Beasts gathered here?"

Around the ruins, Durandal could be seen easily dispatching several Honkai Beasts with her bare hands.

Nearby was her spear stuck in the ground full of Honkai Beast footprints.

It seems like that place was previously infested with Honkai Beasts.

She was currently distracting the Honkai Beasts to buy time so that the evacuated citizens could be moved to safety.

"Rita, what about your situation?"

Durandal opened the communication screen, from the other party's communication screen she heard several Honkai Beast roars before a slashing sound was heard.

["It's clear, Durandal-sama, the citizens here have been fully evacuated to a safe place. What about your place? "]

She turned her head to the side and kicked the Honkai Beast that was approaching her until it was thrown towards the sky.

"It's clear here too. Remember, our mission is to focus on evacuating the locals."

["Understood."] x 10

Durandal then closed the communication screen, narrowing her eyes as she stared at the light that attracted the attention of the Honkai Beasts before turning back and going in search of the remaining survivors.

...

Ashborn sneaked and jumped from building to building.

["What you say is true Ashborn?"]

"... "

["Well... What you said must be true, after all he is your relative."]

Ashborn did not answer Otto's question, his mind seemed to be distracted by something.

After a while, he crouched on the tall building staring at the source of the sky-soaring light.

He saw Kouro who was shrouded in black mist with his body seemingly covered in purple lines that focused on his heart.

["Ashborn! Honkai's energy concentration level has surpassed the Second Herrscher if left unchecked, that kid's body will shatter and create an explosion millions of times more terrifying than a nuclear blast!"]

As if not hearing that, Ashborn simply muttered, "Not yet... Not yet. "

He jumped down and unlike before she walked slowly towards Kouro, the impact of the energy he released made Ashborn's clothes flutter.

There were even faintly visible purple streaks from Ashborn's body, but even so, he seemed to pay no attention to it, his brightly glowing eyes staring straight at Kouro.

He grasped the serum tightly as if afraid of losing it, he step by step approached Kouro, after being a few centimeters away from him, Ashborn stopped.

He looked at Kouro's face which looked in pain he could even see that his hair was slowly turning white either due to pain or due to other factors.

"I'am Sorry... Sorry to make you bear that responsibility... "

After saying that, he quickly inject the serum into Kouro's neck.

*BOOM! *

Ashborn was blown away due to the impact of Kouro's energy suddenly becoming unstable.

"AHHH!!!"

He quickly balanced himself in the air before jumping onto the roof of the building.

He looked up at Kouro whose chest seemed to be glowing brightly making even the rays of light soaring into the sky even brighter, he then looked up at the sky, or rather the moon.

His eyes narrowed when he saw the moon as if he remembered something.

[The serum is effective Ashborn! Honkai's energy concentration level is starting to decrease significantly, it is estimated that in about 4 hours, the energy concentration will return to normal."]

Hearing that, he looked at Kouro again who was unconscious and completely naked, thinking of something he then approached him and took off his suit and laid it on Kouro's body.

"Otto. Tell Fu Hua that Kouro is safe, let her bring him back. "

["Sure. By the way Ashborn... What do you think if I invite him to Schicksal?"]

"..." Ashborn's expression was calm this time, he didn't seem to be surprised by Otto's words.

"Let him decide for himself. "

After saying that, he let the shadow under his feet spread out before swallowing it slowly.

He stared at Kouro for a long time letting the shadow swallow him before completely disappearing to be swallowed by the shadow.

On the other hand, in a certain orphanage, Aphonia's eyes that were focused on staring at the light moved slightly, she also looked up at the moon before muttering, "I see... The time hasn't come yet. "

She then raised her head and looked up at the sky, "Although he hasn't returned yet, the dice of his destiny have already rolled..."

"Sakura-nee, hurry up! I have to find the source of that light!" Higokumaru urged Sakura with his eyes never moving from the light.

"Wait, don't pull me roughly," Sakura could feel the obi binding her kimono coming loose due to Higokumaru's strong pull.

Luckily the people around didn't notice as their eyes were focused on the light and even captured the moment using their cell phones.

"What's with that light, Sid?" the gray-white haired girl asked in a deep voice.

"I don't know, but... I feel the familiar imprint of that light... " Shadow clutched his rapidly beating heart.

*DING! *

Suddenly, a communication screen appeared in front of their eyes simultaneously.

It came from Dr. Mobius and there was only a single command.

["RETURN TO BASE."]

Shadow and the girl looked at each other before sighing.

"Raven, as always you drive. "

The girl who was called Raven by Shadow, turned her head and looked at him strangely.

"Are you still unable to drive, Sid?"

"Shut up."

Shadow turned his head to the side to hide his expression from Raven.

In the spacious white room, the little girl after looking at the light that soared into the sky, her purple eyes shining slightly, her eyes then turned to her painting again and quickly finished it.

What the girl was drawing was Kouro, or rather the 3 people who were closely related to him.

On the left side was a man with black hair and purple eyes with the gloomy surroundings staring at the moon.

In the center was a little boy with white hair and silver eyes with an environment filled with a sad atmosphere, the boy's eyes always looking up at the starry sky.

On the right side was a teenager with white hair and violet eyes with a plain environment like blank paper, the teenager's eyes were cheerful and turned to the side looking at the two people.

Looking at her painting, the girl nodded with satisfaction and murmured, "What a unique color. "

Deep in a mysterious place, a place said to be for those who seek truth, for those who seek power, and for those... who seek miracle.

That place for some was called the 'Elyisian Realm'.

In a dark place with no light at all, there was a man who blended into the darkness without seeming the least bit agitated.

He appeared to have short black hair and was sitting in a cross-legged position while closing his eyes.

If Kouro was here, he would definitely recognize this man in one look, after all this man was the one who had the same name as him.

As if sensing something, he then opened his eyes, his purple eyes that shone like lights illuminating the dark place, he seemed to turn his head in a certain direction as if he could sense something.

"I see... The plan has failed... No problem... "

If there are any wrong words, please let me know immediately.
