Chapter 198: Amphoreus Hero Chronicles
[March 7th]:"So the disaster in Penacony has finally ended..."
[Honkai Rail·Welt]:"Yes, what follows should be some cleanup work, negotiations between the company and the family, and such."
[March 7th]:"Does that mean we can finally enjoy our vacation to the fullest?"
[Stelle]:'Wait! What about Firefly? What happened with Firefly's third death!?'
[Sparkle]:"You're really worried about that girl, aren't you? Don't worry, my little button hasn't been pressed yet, has it?"
[Next playing: "Honkai: Star Rail" Golden Epic PV: "Amphoreus Hero Chronicles"]
[Theresa]:'What is this place?'
[Black Swan]:'If nothing unexpected happens, after the Nameless finished Penacony, I would recommend they come here.'
[Black Swan]:"This is a world even [Trailblaze]'s Akivili never set foot upon—the eternal land of Amphoreus!"
[March 7th]:"So this is the world we'll be going to in the future, right?"
["Legend says the world began as chaos."
"Then life cast down the spark, and Titans were born from the flames."
Golden threads weave into a wheel, twelve symbols surrounding the central Titan. "Three weave fate, three carve heaven and earth, three mold life, three guide calamity."]
[Stelle]:"Seems normal so far."
[Qingque]:"But once you Nameless get there, it won't stay normal for long."
[March 7th]:"Why does it sound like wherever we go, disaster follows?"
[Honkai Rail·Welt]:"Titans, fate? This world... feels somewhat reminiscent of Earth's Greek civilization."
["The Titan's flame ignited civilization, allowing all nations to thrive endlessly."
"But the golden age passed in an instant, as blasphemous black tides descended from beyond the heavens."
The prosperous era, the peaceful and beautiful world, vanished forever under the impact of the black tide. "Its darkness deeper than death, Titans fell into madness, mortals raised arms against each other."
Across the world, humans warred endlessly; amidst crimson flames, the world descended into madness.]
[Theresa]:"This description... it really sounds like Honkai..."
[Bronya Rand]:"Actually, it also resembles a Stellaron disaster."
[Sampo]:"Then it must be a Stellaron disaster. If the Astral Express is going there, wouldn't it be strange if this world didn't have a Stellaron?"
[March 7th]:"Sampo, what you're saying... I can't even argue with that..."
["Conflict arose repeatedly, blood-colored dawns were swallowed, gods clashed, and even the sun fell silent."
The sun high in the sky reflected the blood-soaked, war-torn world.
Then, slowly closed its eyes. "A millennium of divine war left only a shattered world."
"An age of darkness.""The spark is fading; the age of gods has ended."]
[Stelle]:"Understood. We're going to link the fire!"
[March 7th]:"What do you understand!? Don't say such ominous things, please!" ["Golden blood fell upon the earth, an oracle echoed from afar..."
A massive wrist bound by chains, golden liquid dripping and flowing from the dark sun above... "Flow, golden blood."
"Converge into a scalding river, flowing to the descendants of heroes in this world—"]
[Elysia]:"No matter what kind of world it is, heroes will always step forward. Don't you think so, Eden?"
[Stelle]:"Good, good. I thought we were going to link the fire in the next world."
[
[Golden Weaver]
"You shall gently stroke the sacred city's silk web, listening to the whispers of fate."
From her hands, golden threads weave into a gate; a red-haired girl passes through it. "A tripartite messenger will shuttle through countless gateways, bringing you messages from the White Realm."]
[March 7th]:"Looks like we can get to know our future companions early. I have a feeling we'll save the world together with these heroes!"
[Aponia]:"The power of fate..."
[Honkai Rail·Welt]:"Is something wrong?"
[In a dark forest, beams of light fall through gaps between trees. At the base of a giant tree, a blue-haired, one-eyed scholar catches falling specks of fluorescence.
"The obtuse Anaxagoras"
"His knowledge can refute faith, stirring waves of deicide."
The fluorescence dissipates; leaves drift gently on the water's surface.]
[Pardofelis]:"This scholar looks a bit fierce..."
[Elysia]:"Dr. Mobius~ Do you think these Chrysos Heirs might be our counterparts? ♪"
[Sakura]:"But... the characters that have appeared so far don't seem to correspond to us."
[Elysia]:"Could they be organizational counterparts? ♪"
[Mobius]:"Hmph, boring topic. Let's just keep watching."
[The camera pans upward; a pink-haired little girl sleeps peacefully on a tree trunk. "Find the priestess who divides dawn and dusk, let the sky become her waking bed."
A white messenger pigeon soars across the sky, pierced and dissipateded by countless crimson arrows.
"Make him roar!"
"The undying Mydeimos."
"Use the suspended blade's bloodline to pierce the enemy king!"
On a blood-soaked battlefield, a man in battle robes fights and roars, crimson energy forming a lion behind him.
An agile warrior, cat-like, moves through enemy ranks with purple light and shadow, tearing foes apart! "Let her run, swift-footed Cipheria."
"Make stagnant time flow for you."]
[Elysia]:"Wow~ That's Pardo, right? It must be! ♪"
[Pardofelis]:"How could that be me? Even if she is my counterpart, I don't have such powerful strength!"
[Pardofelis]:"You might as well say the previous warrior is more like Kalpas."
[Kalpas]:"Hmph..."
[Stelle]:"With such great generals, how can we not save Amphoreus?"
[Elysia]:"My dear Eden, do you think there might be a version of me here?"
[Eden]:"Perhaps there will be. But in my heart, you will always be unique, my dear Elysia."
["And the attendant of the ashen hand, daughter of the River Styx—" In a dim world, a young woman in pale purple robes raises her hand, gently stroking a ferocious skeletal dragon. "If you grant her the right to embrace, even cold death... will find peace at her fingertips."
Upon touch, the giant dragon dissipatess into dust. "You will hear the deep sea's voice echoing in the storm."
"You will see foreign visitors arriving under the night's cover."
Deep beneath the sea, water swirls into vortices around a singer.
A shadow is cast in a long corridor; the Astral Express's phantom speeds by, while an unfamiliar shadow remains in place.]
[Elysia]:"If they really are counterparts, Eden, this singer in the deep sea might be your counterpart ♪"
[Eden]:"I look forward to it, Elysia."
[Stelle]:"I bet a pack of sunflower seeds that this train shadow is our Astral Express!"
[Qingque]:"Help, I feel like someone's stating the obvious."
[March 7th]:"We're definitely going to Amphoreus; 'foreign visitors' seems to match too."
[March 7th]:"But... whose shadow is that left behind?"
Still alive here; updating less doesn't mean I'm dead. If we're talking about truly dying, it should be like that other book updating once every half month, right?
