Honkai Impact: Capturing the Little Herrschers starting with Sirin

It all happened too suddenly. From forcing Qianjie into the cursor to launching a surprise attack on Bai Mo, the time difference was only a few breaths.

It can even be said that the moment Bai Mo wanted to stop the black shadow, the cold light was already in front of him.

puff!

...

The sound of the sharp blade piercing through the body was clearly heard by Bai Mo.

Looking at the sword blade that was only fingertips away from her heart, everything in front of her was slowly reflected in her constricted pupils.

"Zi~"

A sharp blade...pierced through the black shadow's lower abdomen.

When Bai Mo was in the most critical moment, its speed that surpassed everyone else allowed it to catch up.

Maybe, I mean, the timid one shouldn't be able to do this.

Nor should it have any reason to do so.

But it did it.

There were no screams or wails. All Bai Mo could see was the body heaving in pain, and the hands that, even though pierced through, still held the sword tightly.

"You will die... catch... protect..."

At its end, its only obsession was to grab the sword and protect the people behind it.

Even though it really hurts, even though it has never had such a clear understanding before, and has never done something so decisively.

But... dying for this seems a bit like being a hero.

One man’s…hero.

"you……"

In the gradually trembling and dazed eyes, everything seems so unreal.

But in Bai Mo's eyes, the scene before him seemed to overlap with a scene in the past.

Was there someone in the not too distant past who had come this far for himself?

puff!

The sharp blade was pulled out, and the black shadow's body was shaking.

"Zizi..."

"To Zizi..."

"I...Zi...No, Shouzi..."

It knelt weakly on the ground, with intermittent murmurings coming from its mouth. As it swayed, its body lay down weakly like a fallen leaf.

Lying down in Bai Mo's arms.

Bai Mo caught her, but his eyes were parallel to the sharp blade in front of him.

On the other side of the blade was that familiar figure.

The fat body was no longer cute, and the chubby paws held a blade that was much larger than it was. The chubby face no longer showed timidity and naivety, but instead a plain expression and... eyes that were as deep and dark as the sun.

"Pado~!"

This scene only happened in a moment, and when the little ones turned around, they only saw this scene.

He saw the black shadow falling to the ground for Bai Mo, and her with the sword pointing at Bai Mo's throat.

"Didn't it work?"

He retracted the sharp blade in his hand and swept his cold eyes over, landing on the black shadow.

"Meaningless emotions can't change anything, just like your meaningless courage."

"Maybe you should listen."

"Be a coward and obey me."

"You're always like that, aren't you?"

"You've never been brave before, so why are you doing this meaningless...struggle?"

Wow~!

As the cold voice finished speaking, two objects rolled down in front of Bai Mo with a crisp sound.

That is, two master keys.

But why are there two?

Why, there are two...

Bai Mo vaguely remembered that when Paduo's master key was lost, he picked it up and returned it to her.

But if the master key didn't belong to Paddo, I mean, not to the cat in front of me, then...who could it be?

Perhaps as a response, or perhaps it was a coincidence, the fat cat in front of him turned around.

The moment she turned around, the mist that had surrounded her, which had appeared at some unknown time, dissipated.

Her long black hair was casually draped over her shoulders, her smooth skin was faintly visible between the ends of her hair, and her pair of calm eyes met Bai Mo's empty gaze. On her familiar face, she was as indifferent as ever.

So cold that he has no emotions, so cold that he has no soul.

"It's you……"

The one who had been following them around, who had almost all of Padre's characteristics, was a despicable imitator.

The owner under that piece of leather and glue is yourself and your past.

Bai Mo had never had this feeling before. He felt so disgusted with his past and the faces he once knew well!

"Remember? You were overwhelmed by too many emotions."

"Those meaningless emotions, joy, trust, compassion, will bring nothing."

Unlike Bai Mo's embarrassed look at this moment, she bent down calmly.

"You are angry, just like now, your heart is full of anger, but you don't know anything, even now, you still don't understand anything."

"You don't understand who you are facing, why Padua Felice is me, and whether everything you are doing is right."

"Of course, you can comfort yourself by saying that even Su didn't notice it, and there's nothing you can do about it."

"But is it really like this?" She talked a lot. Compared to their first meeting, she had more emotions, but perhaps... that was a side of her that she would only show to Bai Mo.

"Su... or others, do you really think that the ones you see here are complete?"

"They... are just lambs whose eyes have been covered by me. Only you, Bai Mo, can break through the fog and see the truth."

"But you didn't. You believed too much in Ying Jie's ability. You believed in Su and their judgment. But as I said, these boring emotions will not bring anything."

He moved closer, leaned down, and whispered in Bai Mo's ear.

"So tell me now... do you still trust Su's judgment?"

boom!

The maze in the distance exploded, and a sharp blade pierced through the body of the person in front of him, passing through and creating a sea of ​​fire in the distance.

But she just looked at Bai Mo coldly, looking at the flames dancing in Bai Mo's eyes.

The attack was swift, without holding back, and filled with murderous intent and anger.

But the one in front of me is just an illusory figure.

All Bai Mo could do was crush it and listen to her slowly making the final narration under her slightly playful gaze.

"It does... resemble the past."

"Of course, it's just a shadow."

...

Her figure disappeared.

Bai Mo picked up the master key on the ground.

"Zi..."

"Sizzle...

"Ah... Shiro..."

The dark palm trembled and slowly reached towards Bai Mo.

The touch of fingertips and cheek made Bai Mo's pupils, which were staring at the object in his hand, tremble, and he lowered his head to hold the hand of the person in his arms.

Gently, he placed its palm on his cheek. Bai Mo wanted to say something, but found that his throat was blocked. The only thing he could express with his emotions was that sound...

"I'm sorry~"

I closed my eyes, perhaps to stop the tears from falling.

Bai Mo carefully felt the palm on his cheek.

That familiar touch.

My thoughts followed her memories, as if returning to that first encounter.

At that moment, it reached out to me.

"But I...couldn't catch her."
