"What... mmm~~ what on earth is this feeling!?"
Her body, which had been dormant for tens of thousands of years, felt as if some mysterious switch had been flipped. A trembling sensation, like a reservoir opening its floodgates, caused Fu Hua's body to lose control.
The warrior's body knelt on the ground. The sense of despair in her heart and the impulse in her body made her unable to do anything.
From the Previous Era to this age, she had never experienced this feeling, and she knew very little about related matters.
She knew what was required to reproduce, in short, she knew the general framework, what to do and what to expect.
As for what happens in between, she was completely ignorant.
Therefore, Fu Hua didn't know what was happening to her body. She just felt that her well-tempered body had lost control, and she might even be defeated in this battle because of it, ultimately being killed by the Herrscher of the Void.
All is lost!
Even though her body was riddled with wounds, even though her muscles trembled all over, and even though she was assailed by a Sage Time she had never experienced before.
Fu Hua's well-tempered body lost control, but her mind only wavered for a moment before returning to normal, and she had even foreseen the future to come.
This sudden turn of events disrupted everyone's plans, but the Herrscher of the Void was clearly more resistant to this than she was.
Once that being recovered first, what awaited her would inevitably be the destruction of her physical body.
She did not fear her own death; she feared the more severe consequences that would follow her death.
However…
At the moment the same feeling assailed her body, the Herrscher who had just been acting imperiously under the attacks of the Herrscher of Thunder and Fu Hua, saw the arrogance in her eyes turn into boundless fury.
"BRIAN!"
Even though that guy wasn't around, even though that idiot Kiana was sound asleep.
That guy's shadow still loomed over her. Just as she was about to get the third Herrscher Core from Raiden Mei's body, this despicable guy had to pop out and ruin her fun again!
And this time, she was the only one suffering again!
That stupid Kiana just turned over and went back to sleep!
She hated him! She was furious!
But it was all in vain!
Angry tears fell from the sky. If it weren't for the Herrscher of the Void's inherent ability to fly, she would have probably fallen from the sky by now.
Below, Raiden Mei, being more experienced, was the first to react. She brought her sword down on the Herrscher of the Void without hesitation.
"Herrscher of the Void, give Kiana's body back!"
A pink light shone on the two girls, so dazzling it was mesmerizing.
Fu Hua, whose mind was blank from that last impact, stared blankly at the scene that had suddenly become strange.
She felt like she was the outsider, and these two Herrschers seemed to be engaged in a domestic dispute.
And this strange feeling that swept over her whole body…
Fu Hua was pondering what this feeling could be.
An honest person like her had no contact with such strange knowledge and couldn't find a corresponding strategy to deal with it.
Just as she was thinking about how to regain her fighting strength and assist Raiden Mei…
An invisible ripple once again swept across the entire Far East Branch.
This time, the prepared Fu Hua finally clearly felt the true nature of this power.
"This is... Shenyun..."
A strange Shenyun state, a very strange feeling!
The gray-haired, blue-eyed girl rolled her eyes back, suppressing the feeling that almost made her scream, trying hard to figure out why this was happening.
She created the "Taixu Sword Ki", and the number of people who were taught it was already very small; the Shenyun state is the ultimate level of "Taixu Sword Ki", and even fewer people have reached it.
In her memory, besides herself, the founder, less than a handful of people had reached the Shenyun state of "Taixu Sword Ki".
And among these beings, her rebellious disciples had long since become a pile of yellow earth buried in the dust of history. Only Li Sushang, from her disciple's generation, survived.
This person was taken in by Otto using a Previous Era's life-support pod after her battle with her and might have been healed by that man in these five hundred years.
But Li Sushang's Taixuan Sword God did not manifest like this.
Could it be…
"The Herrscher of Reason's power analyzed the Taixuan Sword God and reconstructed this move?"
Fu Hua arrived at the most likely conclusion.
"Taixu Sword Ki" trains the mind, not the qi. It was a martial arts masterpiece she created during her most extreme and skillful period.
The Shenyun state sounds very mysterious, but in the end, it's about the ability to shape and control Honkai energy.
And Herrschers are naturally endowed with these two conditions, so they can master it with just a little practice.
Coupled with the effect of the Herrscher of Reason's authority, using this move would be a piece of cake.
The only thing Fu Hua couldn't understand was... why could this move arouse a physical impulse in everyone, to the point where even a battle-hardened warrior like her couldn't suppress it?
Her body might be riddled with wounds, but her well-tempered will shouldn't be weaker than Raiden Mei's or the Herrscher of the Void's.
Fu Hua... did not understand.
…
"So... this is... his ability..."
The once imperious Valkyrie was beaten to her knees, and even the golden armor on her body dissipated in an instant.
The power of the Star Anchor Armor required Durandal's full concentration to guide and use; otherwise, this power from the Sea of Quanta would not only harm herself and others but also her friends.
To avoid this, Durandal could only temporarily stop using this power under the current extreme circumstances.
But the disappearance of the burden of using the golden armor did not mean the torture Durandal was enduring would vanish from this moment on.
Her well-tempered body couldn't stop trembling. Durandal planted her long spear on the ground to barely maintain her balance.
But the abnormality of her body couldn't be hidden, and the crimson hue that kept rising on her skin couldn't be stopped.
At this moment, the S-rank Valkyrie's gaze was incomparably fierce, yet she couldn't stop that abnormal sensation from spreading rapidly through her body.
She had thought this guy's ability was nothing special. As long as she finished the fight quickly enough, or was a little more careful during the battle, she could beat him to his knees and drag him back to be a taro-filled star-slave for Rita!
But she never expected this man's ability to be so terrifying that even her well-tempered body could hardly bear it.
Fortunately, Durandal had long been prepared for this, and even the tide-like feeling surging through her body did not destroy her will to fight.
Instead, she regarded this matter as a lifelong shame and was determined to bring this man to his knees!
Whatever doesn't kill her will only make her stronger!
The only thing she was relatively worried about was…
"Sushang, are you alright?"
Behind the Valkyrie, the martial artist from five hundred years ago leaned on her sword, her full figure trembling uncontrollably.
A more delicate crimson than Durandal's bloomed on the girl's skin, a color that even the sexy thigh ring on her full thigh couldn't stop from spreading.
Li Sushang's amber eyes stared deadly at the Inner World Protagonist who had caused all this, her gaze wishing she could kill the man who had made her this way.
"I'm... no longer pure..."
Born five hundred years ago, she received a feudal-era education and her thinking was more conservative.
Even though martial artists like her were often unconventional, she was still very cautious about major matters concerning her reputation.
But she never expected to stumble today, sent by that scoundrel Rakshasa to deal with this Inner World Protagonist, causing her body to be no longer pure.
Although her body had not been defiled, having experienced this sensation physically, she could never go back to how she was before.
Either she kills this guy and washes away the shame on her, or she marries him and makes the best of a bad situation!
Undoubtedly, Li Sushang chose the former. Even if she was no match for this guy, she would risk her life to take a bite out of him!
In the Valkyrie's eyes, fury burned!
But Brian didn't care about that.
"Durandal, let's end it here. You are no match for me!"
Under his hand, there wasn't a single beautiful girl who wouldn't lose her composure; just as in front of Elysia, there wasn't a single beautiful girl who could resist her passion.
As long as it's a woman, she has no chance of winning against him. Now that he has learned the Taixuan Sword God: Thunderfire Sword, it's even more difficult!
Durandal refused to give up: "There are always things in life that need to be accomplished, just as you want to protect the people around you, I also have things I want to protect!"
The exhilarating feeling faded from her body with the passage of time. Although Durandal felt that her underwear was still a bit strange, continuing to fight was no longer a problem.
If she couldn't bring this man to his knees, she had to at least prevent him from leaving this place, otherwise all their plans would be for naught.
"Sushang, assist me!"
The martial artist was a woman of few words and much action. Li Sushang, who was already very angry, no longer held back after that sentence.
The attacks of the two Valkyries were perfectly coordinated, effectively restricting his further movements while dodging young Brian's attacks.
But such actions, meant only to stall for time, only slightly delayed the time of his victory.
"Durandal, all your efforts are in vain before my power!"
Taixuan Sword God: Thunderfire Sword!
The indiscriminate attack swept across the entire Far East Branch again. Even Murata Himeko, who had just put on the Key of Blankness, was brought to her knees by this powerful force.
The mature woman, whose entire body radiated a fiery color, couldn't help the familiar sensation, and even the white-haired old woman beside her couldn't help but fall to her knees from her weakened state.
"Himeko... what on earth is this..."
The pleasant sensation made one tremble uncontrollably. Theresa's already weak body was made even worse, and she was about to cry.
The extremely sad mood, originally due to Himeko's almost certain death, was forcibly emptied at this moment. Theresa even felt at this moment that her whole life was worth it.
It felt too good!
Why had she never known about this before?
Looking up at the sky, Theresa had never felt that the sky of St. Freya High School was so beautiful.
Beside her, Murata Himeko endured her rapid breathing and pulled a somewhat stiff smile on her mature face.
"Theresa, I think it's better for you not to know too much about these things."
Like the others in the Far East Branch, although Murata Himeko was Theresa's friend, she actually regarded her as the mascot of the Far East Branch.
A mascot should just be happy. If it comes to a time when even the mascot has to grow up, it means the world is in crisis.
Murata Himeko didn't want this to happen.
But now it seems... her grandpa had already arranged everything.
"I'm not a child anymore!"
Theresa retorted.
Still very childish.
Murata Himeko didn't have time to argue with Theresa: "Theresa, I'm going to bring Kiana back from the Herrscher's grasp. There are some tasks that should have been done by me that I can only ask you to help with."
The heavy tone made Theresa a little sad.
But this was a battlefield, and life and death were all too common.
"No matter what happens next, we can't stay here any longer."
"Before I came, I had already notified the Hyperion to start preparing for departure. We just happen to be missing a captain to coordinate."
Murata Himeko's smile was bright and clear, without any unwillingness of someone about to die.
To be able to experience the feeling of extreme joy one more time before dying, her day was worth it!
"Himeko, leave it to me!"
Theresa ran off, not even daring to hug Murata Himeko.
Because she was afraid she wouldn't be able to hold back her surging emotions and would cry in front of Himeko, affecting her mood.
Murata Himeko, embarks on her journey!
To fight to reclaim her student from the hands of a Herrscher!
…
"Give up, you can't possibly win against me!"
The Honeysuckle Crest induction from Kiana in the distance was still in place, and the other girls were completing their respective tasks.
But Brian, the Inner World Protagonist, felt that his opponents were a bit block-headed, far too persistent.
Li Sushang refused to close the distance, and Durandal, with her rich combat experience, never let the two of them make contact.
These two just clung to him, not seeking any further gains, which was really annoying.
Like two flies, you can't kill them and you can't drive them away!
"..."
Durandal said nothing, just using her tenacious body to achieve the tactical goal of stalling.
As long as she stalled until the Herrscher of the Void killed someone, her mission would be complete.
Loose lips sink ships; she didn't even have the intention of communicating with this man now.
Li Sushang had also calmed down. Apart from her beautiful eyes being full of murderous intent, everything was as usual.
But Brian could wait no longer.
Taixuan Sword God: Thunderfire Sword!
Having a lot of Honkai energy means you can do whatever you want!
The familiar shameful sensation once again swept over the two girls' entire bodies, even soaking their clothes with the sweat they secreted.
Taking this opportunity, Brian seized the gap in their blockade and was about to leave.
Realizing his intention, Durandal did not hesitate. She squeezed out strength from her body, making her hands and feet wrap around Brian's body as powerfully as giant pythons.
"You... don't even think about leaving!"
For a better future, her current sacrifice was insignificant!
Li Sushang was stunned by this scene, so much so that she couldn't even hold her long sword steady.
Isn't this just sending a lamb into the tiger's mouth?
But she had to admit, this might be their last resort.
Using their no-longer-pure bodies to stall this Inner World Protagonist for a trivial amount of time.
"Sushang, quickly, help me!"
Li Sushang: "..."
She hesitated, looking at Durandal's trembling body, filled with fear.
Finally…
She gave up on herself!
"Aaaah—! I don't care anymore, I'll definitely kill you, you scoundrel, in the future!"
Two S-rank Valkyries, like ruffians, hung onto Brian's body.
This calls for a good poem.
"You two, don't you have any shame as women!?"
Even he, the Inner World Protagonist, had never seen such thirsty Valkyries before.
Could it be that... the stronger the woman, the thirstier she is, the more she craves his body?
