Chapter 89: A New Journey
[Honkai Star Rail·Welt]: "That's still better than you attracting the Sky People!!"
[Honkai·Void Archives]: "Did my future self use Otto's body to turn myself into a clown too? Acting without even investigating Earth's current situation—what a joke!"
Void Archives never missed an opportunity to mock his future self. Seeing his future, liberated self flaunting around was utterly nauseating.
[Future's Tale
After blowing up the Sky People's forward base, Welt and Void Archives also lost their way home. Even though Welt had already destroyed the base, he still couldn't rest easy: "Are you sure these were all the scouting teams the Sky People sent out?"
"According to the report in the base, yes.
Why are you still worrying about other worlds?"
"If you're hoping for their aid, you might as well give up now."
"Honestly, you just worked for free and got yourself killed this time."
Void Archives crossed his arms, delivering a dry taunt. Welt shook his head: "I never expected any reward to begin with."
"Here we go again. This do-gooder act of yours is truly unpleasant."]
[March 7th]: "What's this? When Void Archives drifted into space in the end, wasn't it Himeko who saved you?"
[Honkai Star Rail·Void Archives]: "Alright, alright, my bad. At least I was a former Nameless—show some respect to your senior, kid."
[Sparkle]: "So unfortunate~ Only dear little Sparkle and those Memokeepers know Earth's coordinates~"
[Jing Yuan]: "If Earth joins the cosmos, the Xianzhou Alliance welcomes you!"
[Honkai Star Rail·Seele]: "With Earth's strength, they'd fare much better in the universe than we do right now."
[Sunday]: "Civilizations with Emanators are rare even across the entire cosmos."
["You have every right to be displeased."
"After all, I once used kindness as an excuse to weave an enormous lie, like a child..."
"...Yet how things unfolded was completely contrary to my wishful thinking."
Void Archives suddenly perked up: "Oh?
If that's how it went, why do you still insist on meddling in others' affairs even now?"
"Because I've always believed that kindness is a civilization's most precious treasure."
"Precisely because I once misused it, I cannot afford to stagnate or abandon my faith."
Welt met Void Archives' gaze, his eyes unshakably resolute!]
[Jing Yuan]: "Well said. Kindness is a civilization's most precious treasure."
[Bronya Rand]: "It was because of kindness that Belobog received the Astral Express's selfless aid."
[Murata Himeko]: "Teacher Welt... Back then, your letter hoped I'd become an ordinary person untouched by Honkai."
"Yet now, I still chose to become a Valkyrie. I might even die on some battlefield in the future. But as I've said before—"
"I won't regret it. This was my choice. I'll turn this imperfect world into the one I desire."
"Teacher Welt, don't blame yourself. I was lucky to have been your student."
[Honkai Star Rail·Welt]: "Thank you, Himeko."
[As Welt and Void Archives continued talking, flickering light seeped through the shattered viewscreen. The glow expanded into a portal—crafted from candy—as Sora Shigure and Nicholas Black Sugar made their dazzling entrance. "Human bodies really aren't as convenient as Sugar's—"
"Hey, Shigure, is this the target's coordinates?"
"Seriously, getting suddenly contacted by the elders with some urgent pickup mission..."
"Passenger Welt Yang and his luggage confirmed.
Destination... Earth. Correct?"
A certain Sugar in human form double-checked. But Void Archives was left utterly baffled by the phrasing—what did they mean by "Welt and his luggage"? Just as they prepared to return, Sora Shigure warned: "Our mission is to send you home. Follow the navigation—no detours!!"
Welt smiled in response: "That's more than enough. Thank you."
"The path connecting worlds will be built by humanity itself."
Black Sugar dragged the fuming Void Archives straight to the portal and shoved him through. This wasn't an ending—it was the beginning of a new tale. A fresh journey across the galaxy!]
[March 7th]: "So Mr. Yang still ended up taking a detour after all?"
[Honkai Star Rail·Welt]: "If not for that detour, how could I have embarked on the Trailblaze's journey?"
[Honkai Star Rail·Void Archives]: "You Sugars—explain what you meant by 'Welt Yang and his luggage'!"
[Nicholas Black Sugar]: "Isn't that what you are? First Divine Key: Key of Revelation—Void Archives?"
[Honkai Star Rail·Void Archives]: "I'm not the only Divine Key with self-awareness! Does the other one count too?"
[Herrscher of Sentience]: "Interesting. Who's the other self-aware Divine Key? I thought you were the only one? Spill it!"
[Honkai Star Rail·Welt]: "You'll find out in time..."
Welt figured it was best not to break a certain newborn's heart just yet.
[Stelle]: "So next is Mr. Yang ignoring the navigation, getting lost in space, and being rescued by Himeko—right?"
[Honkai Star Rail·Welt]: "More or less."
[Kiana]: "And because of no navigation, you're still lost and can't find your way home?"
[Aha]: "LOL, press 1 if Akivili laughs with you!"
[[]]: "Next up—let's check out two Xianzhou generals!"
[Fu Xuan]: "The next video involves Xianzhou?"
[Feixiao]: "I wonder which generals they'll feature."
["Honkai: Star Rail"Animation Short: ["Leisurely Free Spirit"]]
[07:00 AM
The video split into two parallel scenes—
After his alarm rang, Jing Yuan patted it drowsily and went back to sleep! Feixiao smacked her alarm away, stretched, and leapt out of bed instantly.
She threw open the curtains and neatly made her bed. Then off to wash up—
Meanwhile, Jing Yuan? A cat licked his face trying to wake him, but he stubbornly refused to rise. 07:30 AM
Finally up, Jing Yuan watered his garden flowers while yawning, even playfully teasing a little bird perched on him. Energetic Feixiao listened to music while working out on a treadmill. Then both received notice for a 10:00 meeting. Still time to spare—Jing Yuan leisurely dressed while Feixiao kept exercising.]
[Jing Yuan]: "Why show my daily routine?"
[Qingque]: "Such contrasting scenes—I must learn from General Jing Yuan's ways!"
[Elysia]: "What a cute girl—don't you all agree?"
[Mobius]: "Every girl is cute in your eyes, isn't that right?"
