Theresa pointed at the other person with trembling fingers, too shocked to utter a complete sentence.
"That's right, Auntie, it's because Xingyue wanted to do this that I..."
Kiana nodded, looking somewhat aggrieved.
"The Herrscher of Domination harbors immense malice towards humanity; she desires to corrupt everyone to the same extent as herself."
As if sensing that Theresa might not yet understand the dangers of the Herrscher of Domination, Kiana added another sentence.
"Alright, no need to say anything more, Kiana. I roughly understand what happened. If it were me, I would have stopped her too."
Theresa waved her hand, signaling Kiana to stop.
Then she covered her head, feeling a sudden, excruciating pain in her skull.
A capricious young girl, an unstable being whose fate is still unknown.
Her emotional impulses might tell her that she must stop Xingyue from doing something outrageous, but her rationality would contradict her.
Haven't they suffered enough defeats at the hands of the Herrscher of the Sea?
She should have realized this the moment her Judah Zero rated power was destroyed by the opponent's Honkai energy.
Not only that, but Fu Hua's battle of consciousness was also a crushing defeat.
Trying to sway someone's will through conversation is even more futile than simply talking.
Theresa felt that what lay ahead of them was fraught with uncertainty.
What if Xingyue suddenly coveted the beauty of the end...
hiss~
Thinking of this, the white-haired loli gasped, finding it hard to imagine what would happen next.
"Okay, thank you so much for bringing Kiana and the others back safe and sound."
Theresa casually pulled her student and niece, one in each hand, behind her to block them.
Upon hearing this, the haired girl's sky-blue eyelashes involuntarily twitched.
She always felt that Theresa's words had a hidden meaning.
I didn't do anything particularly profound! Especially at this time, I felt that doing something that seemed like forcing them would cause them to feel disgusted, so I didn't do it.
Theresa, standing before the Herrscher of the Sea, gave a cold snort and slowly walked away.
"Um?"
Her beautiful, stardust-like eyes widened, and for the first time, Xingyue showed a look of shock.
She noticed that the stigmata on Theresa's back were shining.
What the heck? Wait a minute! At this point, weren't Yae Sakura and the Big Sister monster inside Theresa reconciled? How could this happen now...?
But, just right.
The girl's lips curled into a smile.
"Interesting. Let me see what's going on."
In an instant, the girl's body transformed into a wisp of light, entering the Stigmata from Theresa's back.
After the holy marks shone, the white-haired loli staggered a few steps, but then suddenly felt relaxed again.
She touched the location of the stigmata on her back with her delicate little hands, her expression somewhat surprised.
"What's wrong, Headmaster? Are you feeling unwell?"
Several people noticed that the headmaster had acted strangely earlier, appearing exhausted one moment and then back to normal the next, so they approached to ask him about it.
"No, it's probably because I've been too overworked lately!"
Theresa touched her head, then suddenly remembered something, a tic-tac-toe symbol appeared on her forehead, and she yelled at Kiana.
"Isn't that because of the extra tutoring you've given you? Don't you know how many subjects you've failed?"
"uh-huh!"
Upon hearing this, Kiana snorted lightly, then put her hands on her hips and said confidently.
"I've already mastered the power of a Herrscher, so I'm definitely the most powerful Valkyrie in Schicksal, right? Why should I bother learning those annoying subjects?"
"You guy..."
Theresa felt a rush of blood rush to her brain, and Judah immediately drew his sword and struck Kiana.
"Hmph! Niece, now that you've become a Herrscher, you're also more resilient. That way, I won't have to worry about hurting you."
"Alright, alright, Principal, please calm down, please calm down."
When Raiden Mei saw Theresa raise Judas again, she quickly stepped forward to stop her, but Kiana, who was behind her, got up and made faces at Theresa.
This infuriated the former even more.
After a long while, Theresa sighed deeply.
"Forget it, the students have all grown up, they're hard to manage!"
"Speaking of which, Mei, did you also gain control of the Herrscher's power after this trip?"
Theresa opened one eye and looked at Raiden Mei's current samurai attire.
"Well, I guess so!"
Mei nodded slightly and said nothing more.
Theresa took a deep breath to calm herself, then turned to look back at where the stars and moon had been.
"Oh, I hope you don't find this amusing, niece!"
"what?"
Theresa then realized that the Herrscher of the Sea was gone.
She looked left and right, but there was no trace of Xingyue, so she had no choice but to turn her head and ask the people around her.
“I just saw it, Xingyue turned into a ray of light.”
Himeko raised her hand and spoke.
"Light?"
Theresa frowned, then waved her hand dismissively a second later.
"Forget it, let's just ignore her. She comes and goes without a trace, and there's nothing we can do about it."
"Huh?"
The moment the woman with the white hair touched the ground, she glanced around.
This world is full of pristine grasslands, and the fragrance of wildflowers mixed with cherry blossoms fills the air.
In the distance is a very old-fashioned village.
Looking at this familiar scene, the girl opened up.
Just as she expected, the Scarlet Jade Maru within the Stigmata didn't attack Theresa until this moment. Was it due to the butterfly effect caused by her arrival from a parallel world?
"roar~"
Just then, a roar came from behind.
A bear-like creature lunged at the girl with bangs and claws.
Yes, that's it. Get rid of this outsider, then I'll bring Theresa's consciousness back in.
In the shadows, a dark figure observing everything subtly revealed its sharp fangs.
Heh! Last time, those damned Valkyries prevented it from devouring Yae Sakura's consciousness.
It's a pity, a real pity, it hasn't been defeated yet! It was only sealed away for a short period of time.
This time, it will definitely make those troublemakers pay the price.
Bloodshot eyes glared at the girl standing in the grass; the more primitive Honkai Beast was already inches away from her.
The Honkai Beast had already swung its claws at the girl.
Hmph! Humans are useless inside this sacred space under my control...
What? This, this is impossible.
Hisoko-maru's fox mouth opened wide instantly.
The moment the claw touched the girl, it snapped off.
The haired girl, still standing there with her chin propped up, observing her surroundings, didn't even glance at it.
Chapter 79: Even if I did it, what are you going to do about it?
"hateful!"
Seeing his primitive Honkai Beast shatter upon contact with the enemy, Hiyori Maru bared his sharp teeth, his eyes glowing red, and dug several deep footprints in the ground.
But then it thought of the Valkyries, those guys, they were all a bunch of hypocritical and righteous people.
So, let's try a different approach?
Thinking this, Hiyomaru secretly retreated again.
It didn't notice that the girl with the frilly hair actually glanced in its direction as it left.
Hmph, such a clumsy way of concealing one's aura, if it could still fool her, that would be too laughable.
but……
Starry Eyes looked up at the sky, the girl resting her head on her arm, and glanced at the grass beside her out of the corner of her eye.
She was starting to regret it a little!
Otherwise, she could have pretended to be knocked unconscious by that low-quality Honkai Beast, and then Sakura could have used that special method to wake herself up and take care of herself.
Hehe, hehehehe! (@>)
Are you a lost traveler?
The shrine maiden's soft murmur reached my ears.
Following closely behind was the scent of her body mixed with cherry blossoms.
A pair of long, fluffy pink fox ears, a white shrine maiden dress, and a red ribbon tied around her waist—the image of a beautiful shrine maiden, something that could only exist in a painting, is presented before our eyes.
However, her blue, watery eyes always seemed to lack expression.
That's an expression one only has after losing something precious.
"Is it yet another Valkyrie trying to save me?"
Yae Sakura whispered something and then shook her head.
She and that Herrscher of Corruption have never reconciled. Even a seal cannot contain them; they have always been one.
“It’s getting late. Let’s go! I’ll take you back to the village. You can stay here for the night.”
Yae Sakura took the girl's hand and led her into the shrine.
After walking through a long wooden path, the two arrived at a room with a distinctly Japanese style.
Yae Sakura pulled two clean carpets from the side and laid one on each side of the two people facing each other.
Kneeling on the blanket, Yae Sakura poured the other person a cup of hot water.
"I am the shrine maiden of this village, Yae Sakura. And you?"
Taking the water from Yae Sakura, Hoshizuki tilted her head back and drank it all in one gulp, then licked the water off her lips.
"I'll just call myself Star and Moon."
"By the way, do you have any rice balls here? I'd like some made by you."
After looking around, the girl with frizzy hair approached Yae Sakura without any hesitation and asked her a question.
That attitude showed that he didn't consider himself an outsider at all.
Yae Sakura was somewhat surprised when the other person suddenly almost got close to her face, and subconsciously moved back a little.
