Characters Present

Kiana Kaslana

"Hua"

Fu Hua

Start

The illusion spread out once again.

🔇 N/A

Kiana

This is...

🔇 N/A

"Hua"

Yeah, it's when you just turned Herrscher.

🔇 N/A

"Hua"

To show you how much I've changed, there's no better way to let you relive the past yourself.

🔇 N/A

"Hua"

See? The past me was corrupted by Otto and committed countless crimes for him.

🔇 N/A

"Hua"

The reasons behind? My obsession with Project Ember and the fact that he once saved me.

🔇 N/A

"Hua"

But then again, is Project Ember really important? Letting humanity evolve without intervention can't be the worst.

🔇 N/A

"Hua"

You build a boat when you run into water, that's how humanity moves forward. Project Ember is just Dr. MEI's hubris.

🔇 N/A

"Hua"

As for the life saving... humph, I'm pretty sure I could have handled the situation myself just fine.

🔇 N/A

Fu Hua

...

🔇 N/A

"Hua"

Just speak your mind. Feel free to correct me. Kiana can be the judge.

🔇 N/A

Fu Hua

There's no point dwelling on the past.

🔇 N/A

"Hua"

But you're nothing more than the past.

🔇 N/A

Hua pointed to the her in the illusion.

🔇 N/A

"Hua"

The old me would do others' bidding for "future", "hope", "victory", and other vacant words with no questions asked.

🔇 N/A

"Hua"

Someone says "Go this way", and I just do it. I'd leave all the thinking to MEI, to Otto.

🔇 N/A

"Hua"

But giving up thinking only means one thing: running away from your responsibility. I won't run again.

🔇 N/A

"Hua"

Ever since my revival, I never stopped thinking...

🔇 N/A

"Hua"

If it was me, I'd never listen to a single word of the blonde boy.

🔇 N/A

"Hua":

Rita... the loyal Schicksal servant girl.

"Hua":

Can you believe it? In today's world, she still does laundry and sweeping with her own hands.

"Hua":

She is such a big mystery to me. Does she truly have a mind of her own?

"Hua":

Or is it a curse from Otto, that he took away the ability to think from everyone in contact with him?

"Hua":

Humph, just thinking about this makes me furious.

< The screen goes black, then switches to Schicksal HQ, where the Captain will have control of Fu Hua's [Hawk of the Fog] battlesuit. >

< Defeat Umbral Rose. >

"Hua":

To have mercy for your enemies is a cruelty to yourself. I couldn't see it before...

"Hua":

Completed!

< Umbral Rose defeated. >

"Hua":

So? Do you see our gap now?

Kiana:

But Fu Hua... she later stood up against Rita for us...

"Hua":

Humph, she was just riding the fence and struggling with her mind, but me... I always have a clear plan before I take action.

"Hua":

The past me has another problem: indecision.

"Hua":

She caught you only to change her mind later and let you go. But I'm different. I have way more resolve.

Kiana:

Really?

"Hua":

Of course. There are consequences to everything we do. I won't repeat my past mistakes ever again.

Kiana:

Well, what would you have done back then?

"Hua":

Um...

Kiana:

You knew what went down at the time...

Kiana

The 2nd Herrscher had the better of me...

🔇 N/A

Kiana

At that time, I was the single greatest threat to the world.

🔇 N/A

Kiana

What would you have done?

🔇 N/A

Hua fell silent.

🔇 N/A

Fu Hua

(Well done, Kiana.)

🔇 N/A

Kiana

(If she was put in the spot, I think she would...)

🔇 N/A

"Hua"

If it was me...

🔇 N/A

"Hua"

I'd have killed you right there and then.

🔇 N/A

< Defeat Herrscher Kiana. >

"Hua":

Of course, I was a lot weaker than now...

"Hua":

But the 2nd Herrscher wasn't in her full form then. I'd still beat her with everything I got.

"Hua":

Kiana, don't blame me.

"Hua":

Your awakening is an one-in-a-million miracle. If it happens again, you won't be able to resist the Herrscher's mind corruption.

"Hua":

We've seen the cost of having mercy for Herrschers. We couldn't afford that.

Kiana:

You don't believe human can harness the power of Herrschers? All Herrschers must be taken out?

"Hua":

...

< Herrscher Kiana defeated. >

"Hua"

Defeating Herrschers with love... Otto says it all the time. I don't buy it... no, it's more like...

🔇 N/A

Hua bit her lips hard.

🔇 N/A

"Hua"

I dunno! I dunno! If it was me, I'd have taken resolute action and wiped out the Herrscher.

🔇 N/A

"Hua"

I can't risk it! I won't risk it!

🔇 N/A

Kiana

...

🔇 N/A

Fu Hua didn't speak to her in her head, but she felt encouraged: she did plant doubts in the Herrscher's head.

🔇 N/A

Kiana

Alright, you'd have killed me, then what?

🔇 N/A

"Hua"

After that...

🔇 N/A

Hua pondered the question with a cruel smile creeping up her face.

🔇 N/A

"Hua"

After that... I'd rip Otto apart.

🔇 N/A

She made no effort to cover her murderous intent while gazing at the Schicksal Overseer.

🔇 N/A

"Hua"

He is just a scumbag, a pawn in Dr. MEI's game.

🔇 N/A

"Hua"

Can't believe I let him play me like a fiddle all these years...

🔇 N/A

"Hua"

He is just a clown.

🔇 N/A

Hua waved her hand forcefully, driving away some imaginary buzzing fly.

🔇 N/A

"Hua"

!?

🔇 N/A

Defying her will, the illusion of Otto didn't vanish.

🔇 N/A

In the illusion's hand, the golden plume gave off a soft and warm glow.

🔇 N/A

"Hua"

Oh right, he can simulate Fenghuang Down too... Curse the Void Archives!

🔇 N/A

"Hua"

Dammit, I didn't create this illusory world just to be humiliated by the laughable clown!

🔇 N/A

Hua grumbled and gritted her teeth with anger and frustration mixed together.

🔇 N/A

Kiana

(Fu Hua, was it you?)

🔇 N/A

Fu Hua

(My power has drained away. That's the best I can do now.)

🔇 N/A

As Otto's illusion shattered, the Herrscher's bitter grunt still went on.

🔇 N/A
