Prologue

Characters Present

Susannah

Li Sushang

Start

✦

Colorful lights flowed from electronic displays, and happy tunes harmonized with laughter. In the town arcade, a familiar figure was absorbed in a cabinet.

🔇 N/A

✦

Several chubby kittens sat on the girl’s knees, their eyes glued to the screen as if they were battling the enemies themselves.

🔇 N/A

Susannah

✦

Sushang-sama is still into gaming!

🔇 N/A

✦

Susannah skipped to Sushang’s side, but before she could say hello, she realized it’d interrupt her human-button unity, so she stood there quietly instead.

🔇 N/A

Li Sushang

✦

Susannah!

🔇 N/A

Susannah

✦

Sushang-sama, why do you know I’m here? Weren’t you focused on the game?

🔇 N/A

Li Sushang

✦

Because your reflection was on the screen!

🔇 N/A

✦

Susannah looked at the dark finalization screen, and saw two figures reflected on it. When she leaned in for a closer look, they changed into two smiling faces that were pressed together, and sent the kittens running in all directions.

🔇 N/A

Susannah

✦

Ah, did I scare them off? Sorry for interrupting your game.

🔇 N/A

Li Sushang

✦

You didn’t—I’ve almost attained the state of human-button unity!

🔇 N/A

✦

Yet Susannah saw the game congratulate her for “passing the tutorial”.

🔇 N/A

💬

Congratulate on passing the tutorial.

💬

Congratulate on improving gaming skills.

< Select one of the options to proceed. >

💬

Congratulate on passing the tutorial.

< Alert: Admiration for Sushang-sama increased! >

Susannah

✦

Huh, is this a tutorial stage?

🔇 N/A

Li Sushang

✦

Yeah, it took me a long time! But once I’ve figured out the patterns, they cannot fool me again even if they vary indefinitely!

🔇 N/A

Susannah

✦

Wow, is this what people describe as “seeing the big through the small”? You’re amazing!

🔇 N/A

💬

Congratulate on improving gaming skills.

< Alert: Admiration for Sushang-sama increased! >

Susannah

✦

Wow! You’re amazing! You played much better than you did in Southern Arc.

🔇 N/A

Li Sushang

✦

Huh? You still remember my gaming skills in Arc City?

🔇 N/A

Susannah

✦

(Eek, it’s because I accidentally saw Sushang-sama ranked at the bottom, oh what do I do, has she realized… But she looks happy somehow?)

🔇 N/A

< Dialogue remains unchanged from this point. >

Li Sushang

✦

Hahahaha, my skills come from practice and experience! I see you have the square box, are you going to take pictures somewhere?

🔇 N/A

Susannah

✦

Ah, this! Rita-sama asked me to shoot the daily life of Valkyries!

🔇 N/A

Li Sushang

✦

The daily life of Valkyries?

🔇 N/A

Susannah

✦

Yes, such as your playing video games! I want to take more pictures to use as Schicksal’s recruitment materials!

🔇 N/A

Susannah

✦

Can I take a picture of you? I’ve turned off the flash this time.

🔇 N/A

Li Sushang

✦

Sure! You can tell me to pose in any way you want.

🔇 N/A

Susannah

✦

But aside from taking pictures, I’d also like you to share your training method, is that okay?

🔇 N/A

Li Sushang

✦

Training method… Do you really want me to share it? I’ve improved a little, but that’s not saying much.

🔇 N/A

Susannah

✦

Improved a little? You’ve been super strong! And I really want to know if you have secrets to getting stronger.

🔇 N/A

Li Sushang

✦

Um, secrets… I grind EXP, but so does everyone else, so I don’t think it constitutes my secret.

🔇 N/A

✦

Li Sushang set eyes on the game cabinet, and recalled her gaming experiences rather seriously.

🔇 N/A

Susannah

✦

Grinding EXP? Shenzhou does have a unique interpretation of growing stronger.

🔇 N/A

✦

Susannah couldn’t help but imagine the Shenzhou girl had bested innumerous Honkai Beasts and opponents to thoroughly sharpen herself.

🔇 N/A

Li Sushang

✦

Rather than growing stronger, it’s closer to failing and retrying. A slip would send me back to the start, but defeat is as common as victory in war.

🔇 N/A

Susannah

✦

You’re so positive! Even in the face of hardships, you don’t lose hope and give up. It’s your tenacity that brought victory to the world.

🔇 N/A

Li Sushang

✦

Victory? No no no, Susannah, I actually… just started to achieve things.

🔇 N/A

Susannah

✦

Just started? Oh, I understand, like the Overseer-sama said, the end of a challenge is the start of another! There are always new things to strive for.

🔇 N/A

Li Sushang

✦

Huh? Theresa likes it too? I thought nobody’s interested in it!

🔇 N/A

Susannah

✦

How could that be? Everyone knows you’re gifted and hardworking. The current and future generation of Valkyries would benefit from your specific practice tips!

🔇 N/A

Li Sushang

✦

Gifted? You’re making me blush. It’s the first time someone says I’m gifted in this field.

🔇 N/A

Susannah

✦

Huh?

🔇 N/A

Li Sushang

✦

Hmm, specific practice tips… It’s to practice, practice, and practice! That’s what helped me improve significantly!

🔇 N/A

✦

Li Sushang patted the game cabinet beside her in high spirits.

🔇 N/A

Susannah

✦

Um, that’s profound, but could you be a little more specific?

🔇 N/A

Li Sushang

✦

Be more specific? Uh… I know, why don’t we practice now? The ancients have taught us to talk less and do more. Reading guides written by others cannot compare with trying it yourself!

🔇 N/A

Susannah

✦

Eh? Practice here? O-oh, okay! Then I’ll begin filming, Sushang-sama!

🔇 N/A

Li Sushang

✦

Alright.

🔇 N/A

Li Sushang

< Evade the swords. Stage will clear when the timer runs out. >

< Dialogue proceeds after stage is cleared. >

Li Sushang

✦

Wait, Susannah, didn’t you always say you’re bad at gaming? Turns out you’re the real pro here!

🔇 N/A

Susannah

✦

Huh? A pro?

🔇 N/A

💬

I just got lucky.

💬

You taught me well.

< Select one of the options to proceed. >

💬

I just got lucky.

< Alert: Admiration for Sushang-sama increased! >

Susannah

✦

Not at all, I just got lucky.

🔇 N/A

Li Sushang

✦

Got lucky? I know, you must be being modest.

🔇 N/A

💬

You taught me well.

< Alert: Admiration for Sushang-sama increased! >

Susannah

✦

That’s because you’ve been teaching me the how. I just copied it.

🔇 N/A

Li Sushang

✦

Don’t be modest. You carried me through that stage.

🔇 N/A

< Dialogue remains unchanged from this point. >

Li Sushang

✦

You’re really talented at gaming! Looks like the tips I told you don’t matter!

🔇 N/A

Susannah

✦

(Huh? Was our gaming the tips she was talking about?)

🔇 N/A

Li Sushang

✦

So instead of reading someone else’s strategy, it’s more fun to boldly do it yourself. For all you know, you might be good at this!

🔇 N/A

Susannah

✦

(I got it. Sushang-sama is teaching me the mentality I should have when training.)

🔇 N/A

Susannah

✦

(Shenzhou believes in training the mind before the body, perhaps this is it! Sushang-sama even used gaming terminology to make it easier for me to understand, how considerate of her!

🔇 N/A

Susannah

✦

(Boldly do it… G-Got it! Thank you for your guidance, Sushang-sama!

🔇 N/A

Li Sushang

✦

Oh, with my skills, how could I have guided you? If you have the time, how about another round? Ugh, I simply can’t find a way to break through the next stage.

🔇 N/A

Susannah

✦

No problem!

🔇 N/A

✦

The girls sat next to each other, the HOMU keychains on their bags swayed to the joyous music in the arcade before huddling together.
