"Hearing that, it seems the star rails the Astral Express needs to lay in the future will be much longer."
Himeko continued stirring her coffee, smiling slightly.
Since even the knowledgeable Welt said so, then perhaps this really was the case between parallel worlds.
"Everyone, the warp jump begins in three minutes, please return to your seats, Pom!"
Pom-Pom's voice prompted those still standing to sit down, though the doubts in their hearts remained unresolved.
However, continuing to press for answers did not align with the long-standing creed of the Astral Express Crew.
"While I don't know exactly what happened on your end, regarding your slumber, I think you could try sensing certain things on Mars."
After figuring out Kiana's origin, Welt offered his own solution.
Perhaps this Kiana's slumber was also affected by the Luo Star.
But as for why a Spirit body would cross the Universe to this parallel world, he had no way of knowing.
This involved many things that he currently could not understand; otherwise, he would have found his way back long ago.
"My slumber has nothing to do with Senadina of Luo. It's because my power is sublimating, which is why I've fallen into a long sleep."
"So that's how it is..."
Old Yang nodded, then gave Kiana a meaningful look:
"The Herrscher of Finality is actually able to continue sublimating. Then Kiana, you might very well be heading towards becoming an Aeon... no... that's not right either..."
As Old Yang spoke, he felt something was off and shook his head in negation.
"The status of Finality, and even a Herrscher, should theoretically not be lower than an Aeon. If it's sublimation... then you..."
Old Yang didn't dare think further, for this had already exceeded his—and even the Universe's—current capacity for understanding.
How did this Kiana become so ridiculous at such a young age? If she grew into a universal catastrophe, it would be game over.
"I don't know, we'll see when the time comes. In any case, no matter what, this young miss is still this young miss, and that will never change!"
Kiana puffed out her chest and gave a lighthearted smile, speaking with great confidence.
This gave Welt a slight pause, and then he shook his head with a smile.
Indeed, isn't that just like Kiana? His worries seemed entirely unnecessary.
It seemed that no matter which world she was from, Kiana had roughly the same temperament.
"It seems you've finished your chat. The Express will warp soon; won't you have a cup of coffee before then?"
Himeko smilingly offered the coffee in her hand to Kiana, an action that caused Old Yang and Dan Heng's faces to fill with horror.
Opposite them, March 7th, who was doing horse stance, saw this and ran over with a panicked expression.
"Kiana! Don't drink it!!!"
"The Astral Express is starting the warp jump, please be seated, passengers, Pom!"
Vroom—
"Eh...?"
March 7th passed right through Kiana, leaving her slightly stunned, but at that moment the train had already started... Whoosh—
The entire train turned into light and vanished from the Herta Space Station platform.
In just an instant, the Astral Express appeared on the star rails in space and began its normal voyage.
"Ouch, my neck..."
March 7th was currently sprawled out, head-first on the floor in front of the sofa.
"I told you to sit still and you didn't listen, now you've fallen again, Pom..."
Pom-Pom held a broom, eyes half-closed, looking at March 7th with some exasperation.
Reminded every time, fallen every time; it's what you deserve, Pom.
"Hehe..."
March 7th slowly stood up and playfully stuck her tongue out at Pom-Pom.
"March 7th, hitting your head won't make you even stupider, will it?"
"You're the stupid one!"
Hearing this, March 7th glared at Stelle, then started chasing her while swinging her small fists.
Stelle was chased all over the place, giving Pom-Pom, who was cleaning, a real headache.
"What a pity, still no one is willing to sample my coffee."
Himeko shook her head in disappointment, then took an elegant sip.
Hmm, the taste is quite good.
Himeko nodded secretly to herself.
Dan Heng's gaze remained fixed on Kiana's floating Spirit body, especially the jade plaque at her waist.
At that moment, a cold female voice echoed in his mind:
"Of five people, three must pay a price...!!!"
Dan Heng hurriedly shook his head, attempting to shake the noise out of his brain.
But the voice still wouldn't go away... "Sorry, I need to go rest for a bit..."
Clutching his head, Dan Heng walked toward the door at the back of the parlor car; any longer and the MVP settlement screen would start appearing in his head.
The carry-on dog is Jing Yuan!
The Cloudhymn Magic is the MVP!
Old Yang and Himeko glanced at each other, both seeing a hint of worry in the other's eyes.
But Dan Heng was unwilling to speak of what was on his mind, and there was nothing they could do. *Sigh*.
Kiana, on the other hand, wasn't worried about Dan Heng at all. Once they reached the Luofu, everything would be 'Blade'-ed away~
Yes, quite literally.
Kiana was currently modifying the Herta Puppet, preparing to use this body as her physical form for moving around in this world.
"Adding the Origin Spirit Crystalize from the kabbalah tree of life, then reshaping the body with Spirit Power... and done!"
Kiana performed a series of operations on the body, finally successfully molding it into her own likeness.
However, she was wearing the Spirit Dress: Astral Dress [Zero], a wedding dress style that was as light as gauze and white as a lily.
But this seemed to have lost all traces of being a puppet; there was no difference from a real person, which was basically the same as creating a body from scratch... "Did this young miss go in a circle just to create a body with a Crystalize?"
I'm so silly, really... Kiana pouted as she possessed her latest masterpiece.
After possessing it, Kiana opened her eyes and clenched her fists, feeling the energy contained within the body.
"Not bad, it's just not as comfortable as my original body."
As expected, a replacement isn't as good as the original.
"Kiana, that thing you just put in wasn't a herrscher core, was it?"
Having watched the entire process, Old Yang pushed up his glasses and spoke with certainty.
If it were a herrscher core, there was no way he wouldn't sense the Honkai Energy.
Furthermore, that core emitted an energy he had never encountered before, different from both Honkai and the Imaginary Energy of the Paths.
Seeing Old Yang's confusion, Kiana turned to explain:
"This is a clearance core of the kabbalah tree of life. You can think of it as the origin of another system."
"I roughly understand..."
Old Yang nodded in realization, while inwardly marveling.
The difference in skills between this Kiana and the one he knew was truly vast.
The God of Earth was of the single Honkai system, but this Kiana seemed to hold the power of multiple systems in her hands.
She's practically like the protagonist of a novel... If Kiana knew what Old Yang was thinking, she'd probably ask back:
"Is it possible that I really am the protagonist? ( )"
Cough, cough, of course not. After all, Kiana currently lacks the ability to break the fourth wall to beat up the author.
"Oh right, the kabbalah tree of life has ten Sephirah. Since they haven't been given out yet, consider them a gift for everyone for joining the Astral Express Crew."
As she spoke, Kiana condensed five Crystalize from the Sephirah of the kabbalah tree of life in her hand, and they flew toward everyone on the train.
Of course, Pom-Pom didn't need one, so Kiana didn't condense a Crystalize for him.
On the other side, Dan Heng, who was already lying in bed, felt the extra thing in his body and frowned slightly.
Spirit? Vidyadhara?
I've become a Spirit Dragon?
Tenth Sephirah: Stelle
Fifth Sephirah: March 7th
Seventh Sephirah: Welt Yang
Eighth Sephirah: Dan Heng
Fourth Sephirah: Himeko
As for the Second Sephirah, because of the world's suppression of its omniscience and omnipotence, Kiana didn't plan on giving it away.
Perhaps if it were Elio, he could make good use of the suppressed Second Sephirah?
