Honkai Impact: Capturing the Little Herrschers starting with Sirin

"..."

"It seems that girl came here and made a big scene."

Looking at the endless stretches of Want Want Cookies above the ruins, the old man spoke to Him like this.

"..."

"Why? Are you worried?"

Perhaps his silence allowed the old man to detect some subtle changes, and there was a hint of doubt in his casual words.

"Should I be surprised? You who are all-knowing and all-powerful...actually have something on your mind."

(Open the drawer next to it)

Let me take a look. I remember cigarettes are usually placed in...

Um? No?

"..."

"Brother, that girl threw all the cigarettes into the river. If you want to smoke, go buy them yourself." After a long silence, his first response was not to the old man's previous question, but his helplessness when he saw him rummaging through the drawers.

"Eh?"

"Is that so? That's a shame."

Although he said so, Lao Deng didn't give up and took another look at the empty cigarette box before he put down his hand...

After confirming that it is really gone! This is the disappointment of turning around.

"It seems that you get along well with that girl. She is a very energetic child, unlike mine..."

(Shakes his head, sighs, closes the drawer... takes a bag of tea.)

With his hands behind his back, Lao Deng walked leisurely behind him as if nothing had happened.

Just at this moment, a familiar yellow-haired man fell out of the space channel.

"Hey, look, the discussion over there is over."

"That girl is quite quick in her actions, a bit like you."

"..."

He briefly turned his eyes away from the horrific scene, and there was no extra expression on the handsome profile of the middle-aged man.

He did not have any unnecessary emotional fluctuations because of his eldest brother's teasing.

Take out your phone.

"Hello, is this the Municipal Hospital?"

Calling emergency services when someone is injured is a virtue and a good deed.

Uh… if He hadn’t put down his phone and thrown the unconscious person onto a leather sofa that was bursting with blood like a chicken…

That should be pretty kind.

At least it's close to the people, isn't it?

But if you ask Him, or why They are like this... I mean this simple feeling.

amount……

Perhaps it is because they think that a lot can be accomplished with just a thought that they want to do some things themselves.

Putting themselves in the position of humans, those tedious tasks that give many people a headache actually make them want to do them with their own hands.

Use your patience to complete it.

That may not bring anything, but whether you drive a taxi, race car, collect scrap, or be a profiteer.

They don't need this, but this... is their life.

It is what can be called "life"... life.

"Let me see……"

Pick up a car door on the ground.

"What a pity, a second-hand van is a rare thing."

He raised his eyes, and his eyes revealed a deep meaning that was completely inconsistent with his old body.

"So, how do you trick people into selling you a used van as junk?"

"Isn't that cheating?"

Cheating means not being a human being.

"A young couple." The middle-aged man picked up the wreckage of the washing machine whose lid had flown away and placed it on the weight without even turning his head.

“We bought a car and promised to work together for a common future, but in the end it failed to stand the test of time.”

Come to the car.

"This car was once my hope, but now my regret..."

He patted the front hood, and it made a slight thumping sound.

"If I don't collect it, it will also end up in the garbage dump, but as scrap metal."

"..."

The old man took a look at the regretful door which had now become scrap metal, and the regretful door in his hand, and shook his head and smiled bitterly.

"Humans always blame their mistakes on a lack of time, unfair rules, or a past memory."

"But there are not so many things in this world. If you don't seize more time, there will only be one result."

“If you don’t know how to cherish the beautiful past, it will only be a memory of the past.”

"rule……"

His deep eyes looked up at the sky, as if he was recalling everything he had seen as a human.

"Humans have their own rules, but they obviously can't satisfy everyone."

"So...if the Third Brother were here, what would He think?"

"..."

"Brother, are you talking about the Him of the past or the Him of the present..."

The second brother's answer was originally a very rogue behavior, but at this moment, it made the person who controlled the rules fall into a brief silence.

"Answering a question with a question, you know, that's not right."

But... He just opened His mouth, without any preaching in it.

"Time changes everything..."

"But humans may never know that time itself will also change."

"After all, after all these years, you are the only one among us who has not changed at all."

"Still as quiet as before."

"But that's meaningless." After digging out a relatively intact toilet from the ground, the usually calm god of memory showed a rare expression of contempt for an established fact on his profile.

"Yeah, it's meaningless." The old man agreed.

"If it is human custom, our conversation ends here, and it is time to reminisce about the past."

“Haha… Talking about memories in front of the God of Memory is really a unique and magical experience.”

"..."

"for example?"

"For example, the third brother." The old man's eyes defeated the scorching sun setting in the sky, making the sky as gloomy as his heart at the moment.

"We haven't talked about Him in a long time."

"Rather than saying us, it's better to say... Boss, you are finally willing to face this problem." Standing up, the middle-aged man stopped busying himself.

He took out a pack of good cigarettes from his jacket pocket.

Soft!

"Ha...! I knew you still had some left." His eyes lit up, and the sky suddenly became clear, without any darkness at all.

The sun was shining and the scenery was beautiful! It was just like Lao Deng's mood that changed in an instant...

He took the cigarette and put it in his mouth.

Seeing that the ignorant little second child was about to be put away and had no intention of respecting the elderly and loving the young, Lao Deng became more and more demanding.

"Here, have another one. It feels good when you clip it on your ear."

"..."

Lighting cigarettes and puffing out smoke, two men, an old man and a middle-aged man, squatted on the curb, looking like idle people in society who have nothing to do but brag and fart.

"In human terms, the third child was a child at that time."

“…………A child who started out hundreds of millions of years ago?” Zhong Deng looked back.

"Why... isn't it?"

But the old man raised his eyebrows.

"Indeed, He is not like you, Big Brother, who knows the rules and shoulders the responsibilities when he is born."

"Not like you either..." After taking a puff of his cigarette, Lao Deng spat out a picture of Theresa.

"When you are born you know everything in the world."

(I will not put double quotes around the following paragraph 002 to make it easier to distinguish.)

But in fact, with His power, He should have known a lot.

There is more...the future.
