Chapter 28: Second Villain, Lord Ravager — Phantylia
[ Honkai Impact 3rd - Cocolia: Although Bronya in the video was a bit arrogant, I somehow find her adorable! ]
[ Genshin Impact - Yelan: But drag racing is not advisable! ]
[ Genshin Impact - Yanfei: Exactly. Although Liyue's laws do not explicitly forbid drag racing, one must absolutely not gamble with their own life. ]
[ Honkai: Star Rail - Fu Xuan: Speaking of drag racing, Qingque, didn't you just say you were going to invite everyone to the Xianzhou for starskiff racing! ]
[ Honkai: Star Rail - Qingque: No, Master Diviner, you must have seen wrong. I am currently working at my station, how could I possibly go starskiff racing? ]
[ Honkai: Star Rail - Fu Xuan: Oh, is that so? Then why don't you turn around and look right now! ]
Qingque, who was currently playing Celestial Jade, was stunned when she saw Fu Xuan's message. She instinctively turned her head, only to see Fu Xuan looking at her with a smile—though that smile looked a bit terrifying.
"Ma-Ma-Ma… Master Diviner, he-hello there. Would… would you like to play a round of Ce-Celestial… Jade?!" Looking at Fu Xuan in front of her, Qingque swallowed hard and spoke with a face full of terror.
"Hehehe, didn't you say you were working hard? Since you're so diligent, why don't you help this Master Diviner finish all the remaining official business!" Fu Xuan placed a hand on Qingque's shoulder and spoke with a beaming smile.
"I… I think that's no problem at all, Master Diviner!" Qingque had intended to refuse, but seeing Fu Xuan's nearly murderous gaze, she could only grit her teeth and agree.
As for the others in the livestream room, seeing the footage end, they didn't linger much longer. They logged off one after another to go about their business; after all, they had families to support.
…
Meanwhile, at St. Freya Academy.
"Kiana is the Herrscher of Finality, Raiden Mei is the Herrscher of Origin, and Bronya is the Herrscher of Truth." Murata Himeko looked at the three girls standing before her, not knowing what to say.
"Himeko, you really brought back three 'Great Buddhas' for me!" Sitting in her office chair, Theresa was also looking at the three girls with a headache.
"Don't worry, Great Aunt! We are Herrschers who fight for humanity, not those big villains!" Kiana patted her chest and spoke with total confidence.
"Sigh, forget it. You brat, I don't even want to say anything. But speaking of which, it seems you haven't passed your exams yet, right? So, how are your preparations for the make-up exam going?" Theresa narrowed her eyes and looked at Kiana with a mischievous smirk.
"Uh…" Hearing Theresa's words, the previously excited Kiana instantly froze in place.
"Please rest assured, Principal. Bronya and I will definitely find a way to make sure Kiana passes!" At this moment, Raiden Mei glanced at Kiana and could only step forward helplessly, speaking with determination.
"Yes, Principal, please be at ease. Mei-senpai and I will definitely make sure this big idiot Kiana passes!" Bronya also hurriedly stepped forward and spoke expressionlessly.
"Alright, alright, I get it!" Looking at Bronya, Theresa waved her hand helplessly.
"Okay, let's stop thinking about these frustrating things for now. Let's go have a meal!" Murata Himeko chuckled at the helpless Theresa, then stepped forward and suggested with a smile.
"Yay! Delicious food!" As a major foodie, Kiana was naturally extremely excited the moment she heard about food.
"I really can't do anything with you guys!" Theresa could only laugh helplessly, then followed the group to eat.
…
Time soon reached the next day.
"This livestream room has descended once again. Everyone, come and welcome it quickly!"
[ Genshin Impact - Arataki Itto: You damn livestream room actually sneak-attacked me! If you have the guts, come here and I'll fight you for three hundred rounds, you despicable coward! ]
Arataki Itto, who had been electrocuted into charcoal by the inventory livestream yesterday, had recovered thanks to the powerful regenerative abilities of the Oni race. Seeing the livestream reappear, he spoke with a face full of rage.
"Oh? Do you want to taste the sensation of an electric shock again?"
[ Genshin Impact - Arataki Itto: You… ]
[ Genshin Impact - Kuki Shinobu: Enough, Boss. You should just hurry up and go haul bricks for me. Sorry, Livestream, you may begin! ]
Kuki Shinobu, who was currently buying things in Hanamizaka, felt her forehead break into black lines when she saw Arataki Itto's arrogance in the chat.
"There are still some sensible people. Next, we shall introduce an Emanator of Destruction, a villain from the world of Honkai: Star Rail—Phantylia!"
[ Honkai: Star Rail - Jing Yuan: Oh? An Emanator of Destruction? This is something I should learn about properly! ]
[ Honkai: Star Rail - Duke Inferno: I'd like to see what's so great about this Phantylia, who also follows the Lord. ]
[ Honkai: Star Rail - Xuan Yong: What right do a bunch of fellows not recognized by Nanook have to speak? ]
Regarding Duke Inferno's Annihilation Gang, Xuan Yong looked down on them from the bottom of his heart. He remembered that the plot before his transmigration had just reached this point—they had declared war on four Aeons at once, looking quite domineering. However, according to the background lore, this Duke Inferno was killed directly by the Galaxy Ranger, Acheron, on the way to Penacony. He was a pure clown.
When Duke Inferno saw Xuan Yong's words, he was incredibly furious, but there was nothing he could do against Xuan Yong. After all, this person was the Aeon of Fate, an Aeon who would actually draw a blade and kill people.
[ Honkai: Star Rail - Zephyro: No, on what grounds does she, Phantylia, get to be on the inventory livestream? ]
[ Honkai: Star Rail - Irontomb: Indeed. What right does that woman have to be on the inventory livestream? ]
Phantylia, who was currently on the Xianzhou Luofu, saw Zephyro and Irontomb's comments. Her face darkened as she spoke with disdain: "If I have no right, then do you two have the right?"
"Forget it, time to carry out the mission. Little Foxian, hand over your body obediently!" Afterward, Phantylia ignored those two idiots, Zephyro and Irontomb, and focused her gaze on Tingyun, who was watching the livestream nearby.
In a corner that Phantylia hadn't noticed, Xuan Yong was holding a cup of coffee, taking sips one by one, while his gaze also drifted toward Tingyun.
…
"Next, let us introduce Phantylia in detail."
"Phantylia is of the Heliobi race, a type of energy lifeform without a fixed physical form that can only attach itself to the bodies of others."
"Among the seven Ravagers, Phantylia has no true body, but she has ten thousand incarnations, facing people with a hundred different countenances."
"She is obsessed with the self-destruction of mortals. She lures mortals into the abyss of eternal damnation, letting them destroy themselves along with their own civilizations!"
"Phantylia dislikes causing destruction with her own hands the most, as it goes against her aesthetics of destruction. She is enamored with destruction on both spiritual and material levels—where the collapse of the spirit leads to the demise of the flesh."
…
[ Honkai: Star Rail - Herta: Breaking someone's spirit and then destroying their body… Phantylia's method of destruction is quite difficult. ]
For Phantylia's method of destruction, if she encountered someone with a very firm will, taking action would be quite troublesome.
[ Genshin Impact - Dottore: Spiritual collapse leading to the demise of the flesh? ]
At this moment, Dottore looked at Phantylia on the big screen, then looked at the Grand Sage beside him, revealing a peculiar smile.
