Start
It is said in a far north country stood a majestic mountain.
Flag CN🔇 N/A
Flag JP🔇 N/A
It was thousands of miles long and hundreds of miles tall.
Flag CN🔇 N/A
Flag JP🔇 N/A
Once in a thousand years, a little bird would fly to its peak and sharpen its beak on it.
Flag CN🔇 N/A
Flag JP🔇 N/A
When the whole mountain was worn away by this...
Flag CN🔇 N/A
Flag JP🔇 N/A
The calendar known as eternity would flip to a new page.
Flag CN🔇 N/A
Flag JP🔇 N/A
The heroes fifty thousand years ago had long passed. The wound left by the finality seemed to have healed.
Flag CN🔇 N/A
Flag JP🔇 N/A
The top on the smooth table.
Flag CN🔇 N/A
Flag JP🔇 N/A
Time seemed to stand still.
Flag CN🔇 N/A
Flag JP🔇 N/A
Or rather, like the factorials of negative numbers, it had already crossed the pole at infinity in analytic continuation, and was regressing in the direction opposite to the origin.

Yo, Principal. Did I interrupt your nap?

You're still asleep. Actually, I dozed off too... Being a homeroom teacher is exhausting.

Himeko... are we...

Flag JP🔇 N/A

Himeko
Hmm? What is it?
Flag CN🔇 N/A
Flag JP🔇 N/A
Twilight Paladin (Icon)
Theresa
No... I'm just... confused. Seconds ago, I was giving orders in Hyperion which was flying in deep space. It must be a dream...
Flag CN🔇 N/A

Hmm... That sounds fun. My recent dreams are... what's the word... pretty funny.

They can't be.

Wait till you hear my dream. I dreamed my class grad... When they left the school, we had a big group hug. We were crying and laughing.
Flag CN🔇 N/A
Flag JP🔇 N/A

Theresa
Um... isn't that normal? That happens at every high school graduation.
Flag CN🔇 N/A

But it's my first time being a homeroom teacher and helping a class graduate.
Flag CN🔇 N/A
Flag JP🔇 N/A

Himeko
That sounds super stressful.
Flag CN🔇 N/A
Flag JP🔇 N/A
Twilight Paladin (Icon)
Theresa
... Yeah. Your students are all kind of problematic. I really appreciate it.
Flag CN🔇 N/A
Flag JP🔇 N/A
Kriegsmesser (Icon)
Himeko
If you say that, Principal, you gotta drink with me some time.
Flag CN🔇 N/A
Flag JP🔇 N/A
Twilight Paladin (Icon)
Theresa
That depends on whether you can drink bitter melon wine.
Flag CN🔇 N/A
Flag JP🔇 N/A
Kriegsmesser (Icon)
Himeko
... That's the Principal I know.
Flag CN🔇 N/A
Flag JP🔇 N/A

Himeko
Wait, you haven't returned that barrel of wine you seized from me yet! Stingy.
Flag CN🔇 N/A
Flag JP🔇 N/A
Twilight Paladin (Icon)
Theresa
Huh? Oh... that barrel. Oak-aged, right? Relax, I don't steal drinks.
Flag CN🔇 N/A
Flag JP🔇 N/A
Twilight Paladin (Icon)
Theresa
But I can't stand someone using it like a drinking fountain and making a dorm reek of alcohol. What do you say?
Flag CN🔇 N/A
Flag JP🔇 N/A

Pft...

Flag JP🔇 N/A

Himeko
How about we get down to business, Principal? Here's the plan for this year's sports day.
Flag CN🔇 N/A
Flag JP🔇 N/A
The young redhead thumped down a stack of A4 papers in front of the Principal. They bumped against the top that had been spinning freely on the desk, sending it flying toward the ground in a perfect curve.

< Perspective changes to have control of Theresa Apocalypse's [Twilight Paladin] battlesuit. >
< Pick up the top. >
Theresa instinctively bent down to pick up the spinning top—

< The screen goes black. >

I—What just happened?
Flag CN🔇 N/A

You just broke a layer of your subconscious.

...

Flag JP🔇 N/A

Theresa
Grandfather?! Why are you—
Flag CN🔇 N/A
Flag JP🔇 N/A

Otto (?)
Don't be nervous. I'm just one of your subconscious, and a reference point for your self-awareness.

Did I make myself clear? Congratulations—
Flag CN🔇 N/A
Flag JP🔇 N/A

In the random fluctuations of subconscious, you accidently discovered that you're dreaming—

... You say we're walking in that old man's dream?
Flag CN🔇 N/A
Flag JP🔇 N/A
Midnight Absinthe (Icon)
Raven
Yes. This is Hare's expertise, which she calls "dream-catching".
Flag CN🔇 N/A
Flag JP🔇 N/A
Orochi Cuirass (Avatar)
Mei
Sounds like something only the Herrscher of Sentience can do.
Flag CN🔇 N/A
Flag JP🔇 N/A
Midnight Absinthe (Icon)
Raven
I know, right? That's why the Sire sent Hare to Mount Taixuan during that incident.
Flag CN🔇 N/A
Flag JP🔇 N/A
Midnight Absinthe (Icon)
Raven
But she didn't show interest in Herrschers... By the time she ambled there, the incident had been resolved by you and your friends.
Flag CN🔇 N/A
Flag JP🔇 N/A

Mei
Back to the topic. You said this is all related to Project Stigma.
Flag CN🔇 N/A
Flag JP🔇 N/A
Midnight Absinthe (Icon)
Raven
"The bloody sacrifice becomes the sweet dreamland," in Gray Serpent's words.
Flag CN🔇 N/A
Flag JP🔇 N/A
Orochi Cuirass (Avatar)
Mei
Then the old man...
Flag CN🔇 N/A
Flag JP🔇 N/A
Midnight Absinthe (Icon)
Raven
He has become one with this dream he conjured.
Flag CN🔇 N/A
Flag JP🔇 N/A
Midnight Absinthe (Icon)
Raven
This is another way of living, right? Like what other Gray Serpent often says, "Houses should be built in the air, their foundations are only placed under them."
Flag CN🔇 N/A
Flag JP🔇 N/A
Orochi Cuirass (Avatar)
Mei
You mean World Serpent still intends to follow in Mobius' footsteps and redefine humanity?
Flag CN🔇 N/A
Flag JP🔇 N/A
Midnight Absinthe (Icon)
Raven
That's pretty much it. In the current Project Stigma, the old humans will be connected as dreams, and eventually become the stigmata of the new humans.
Flag CN🔇 N/A
Flag JP🔇 N/A
Orochi Cuirass (Avatar)
Mei
Turning people... into stigmata?
Flag CN🔇 N/A
Flag JP🔇 N/A
Midnight Absinthe (Icon)
Raven
I don't know about the technical details either, but one thing's certain: it makes people disappear into their dreams, swapping reality and illusion. Spirit is converted into matter, and vice versa.
Flag CN🔇 N/A
Flag JP🔇 N/A
Midnight Absinthe (Icon)
Raven
"Once the average old humans are gone, World Serpent will transform it into a world suitable for the new humans. Honkai energy will flow freely inside every person, and Herrschers will never appear again."
Flag CN🔇 N/A
Flag JP🔇 N/A
Midnight Absinthe (Icon)
Raven
Again, that's what Gray Serpent said. I'm sure it can still scare the wits out of kids. From my understanding...
Flag CN🔇 N/A
Flag JP🔇 N/A
Midnight Absinthe (Icon)
Raven
It's Elysian Realm in another sense.
Flag CN🔇 N/A
Flag JP🔇 N/A
< A cutscene plays, showing a large, blue being standing in the middle of a city. The cutscene gets progressively closer to it as dialogue continues. >
Gray Serpent
If you gather all the dreams of humans, you'll get a giant resembling a planet. A desert sage named it Adam Ruhani—
Flag CN🔇 N/A
Flag JP🔇 N/A
Gray Serpent
—Which means Spiritual Adam.
Flag CN🔇 N/A
Flag JP🔇 N/A
Gray Serpent
Adam Ruhani is one of the gods, but it's extremely far away from the others... That distance is what mortals call time. It's the late eternity, and a rift that can't be crossed with logic.
Flag CN🔇 N/A
Flag JP🔇 N/A
Gray Serpent
Humans see Adam Ruhani as the product of their dreams, and the opposite applies to Adam Ruhani. Its words are like our sleep talking. It has no present and past: everything happens in the future.
Flag CN🔇 N/A
Flag JP🔇 N/A
Gray Serpent
It can't die, think humanly, nor reproduce... It simply exists forever as the ladder leading toto divine realm.
Flag CN🔇 N/A
Flag JP🔇 N/A
Gray Serpent
... That's the real aim of Project Stigma.
Flag CN🔇 N/A
Flag JP🔇 N/A
Gray Serpent
Be it gory or psychedelic, physical or spiritual—they're only means, not ends.
Flag CN🔇 N/A
Flag JP🔇 N/A
Gray Serpent
The plan is essentially a chain that ties people who can't help themselves together. We can let them go with the flow, or help them within our power.
Flag CN🔇 N/A
Flag JP🔇 N/A
Gray Serpent
For them, joining this dream is being helped—in their dreams, they are Adams, they are gods.
Flag CN🔇 N/A
Flag JP🔇 N/A
Gray Serpent
The real world will lose its meaning for them, while the eternal dream will become their only reality. They no longer think with time...
Flag CN🔇 N/A
Flag JP🔇 N/A
Gray Serpent
Their dreams will be connected, which will create a true miracle that transcends finality.

Connecting a dream with another dream...?

Raven
Hard to imagine, huh? Friendly reminder, there's more to the project.
Flag CN🔇 N/A
Flag JP🔇 N/A

... Is it because compared to the entire population, people who can be connected to the dream world by World Serpent are extremely rare?
Flag CN🔇 N/A

That old man... is a believer of World Serpent?
Flag CN🔇 N/A

Oh. you're keen. I have a feeling that if we keep talking, I'm going to tell you everything I know.

Correct.

What if I do this?

If this is a regular dream, you'll wake up or have the next dream.
Flag CN🔇 N/A
Flag JP🔇 N/A

But since you're conscious... you risk dispelling it instead.
Flag CN🔇 N/A
Flag JP🔇 N/A
Twilight Paladin (Icon)
Theresa
... Which is to say I can't give up thinking and must find the flaw of this dream, despite not even knowing why I'm trapped here.
Flag CN🔇 N/A
Flag JP🔇 N/A

Otto (?)
That's right.
Flag CN🔇 N/A
Flag JP🔇 N/A

But you must remember, Theresa—

Such as me?

You may still be doubtful about this, but I genuinely am with you.

Deep inside your mind, Otto Apocalypse has a good half. Perhaps this Otto can be called...
Flag CN🔇 N/A
Flag JP🔇 N/A

The other you in the mirror.

You remind me of how disagreeable he was.

Mirrors can be unpleasant. They don't always reflect the sides we like.
Flag CN🔇 N/A
Flag JP🔇 N/A
Otto Apocalypse (Icon)
Otto (?)
I'm not trying to excuse anyone, of course. For some people, manipulating mirrors is an easy trick.
Flag CN🔇 N/A
Flag JP🔇 N/A

Back to the subject of your concern. To dismantle this dream based on St. Freya, the method that would dismantle St. Freya in real life would surely have the highest success rate.
Flag CN🔇 N/A
Flag JP🔇 N/A
Twilight Paladin (Icon)
Theresa
... The Dogma District.
Flag CN🔇 N/A
Flag JP🔇 N/A
This was a name that had not been mentioned for ages. The place known as the Underground Central Church was where St. Freya received cutting-edge technology from Schicksal HQ...
Flag CN🔇 N/A
Flag JP🔇 N/A
... and where the Herrscher core inside Kiana roused again.
Flag CN🔇 N/A
Flag JP🔇 N/A
Otto Apocalypse (Icon)
Otto (?)
Yeah, that's where Schicksal, Anti-Entropy, and the Herrscher of the Void contested.
Flag CN🔇 N/A
Flag JP🔇 N/A

Let's go, Theresa. Let's go see what's hidden there this time.

< The screen goes black, then switches to the walkway, where the Captain will have control of Theresa Apocalypse's [Twilight Paladin] battlesuit. >
< Cross the bridge to the location. >
Theresa
About that... When I first took over the school, I actually hated it.
Otto (?)
Oh? Hated that it reeked of your grandfather?
Theresa
No, I just hated our seniors who overspent on materialistic things.
Theresa
When I first saw the school under construction, I thought to myself...
Theresa
"My gosh, is this some sort of 500-year-old school for nobles?"
Theresa
"Why is it constructed like a palace in Vienna?!"
Otto (?)
But now, you don't think that way anymore.
Theresa
Yeah, I just had to get used to it after all. As Fu Hua says...
Theresa
"Since you are already here, make peace with it. A palace or a hut, it matters not as long as it serves its purpose."
< Enter the building. >
Otto Apocalypse (Icon)
Otto (?)
Oh, here we are. St. Freya's central church.

After opening the door and going down the stairs, we should find ourselves at the most secretive place on the campus.

... Yeah.
Flag CN🔇 N/A
Flag JP🔇 N/A

Is there something on your mind?

Flag JP🔇 N/A

A year ago, this is where Kiana was affected by Herrscher power.
Flag CN🔇 N/A
Flag JP🔇 N/A
Otto Apocalypse (Icon)
Otto (?)
Are you still blaming yourself for it?
Flag CN🔇 N/A
Flag JP🔇 N/A
Twilight Paladin (Icon)
Theresa
You don't understand. Because of that incident... St. Freya lost her best teacher.
Flag CN🔇 N/A
Flag JP🔇 N/A

Theresa
I'm saying... this pains me even more than... losing a good friend forever.
Flag CN🔇 N/A

But the past is in the past. What you can do is get yourself together and look ahead for her.
