Episode 92: Hide in the great cage of the master
~Dimensional livestream, Chat Room~
【 Kiana (Honkai: Impact Third): “Huh? Is this person me in the future?” 】
【 Kiana (Honkai: Impact Third): “No, why would I chase Otto alone?” 】
【 Raiden Mei (Honkai: Impact Third): “...” 】
【 Theresa (Honkai: Impact Third): “You must be too reckless.” 】
【 Theresa (Honkai: Impact Third): “Wait, why are we fighting against Schicksal with Anti-Entropy? I almost didn't notice before.” 】
【 Otto (Honkai: Impact Third): “Perhaps, my lovely granddaughter has reached her rebellious phase; it's fine.” 】
【 Theresa (Honkai: Impact Third): “......??” 】
【 。。。。。】
『 Hearing this familiar voice, Kiana immediately knew who was calling her.
“Huh? Is that Bronya?”
Coming back to her senses, Kiana saw a worried Bronya and several others surrounding her.
“Kiana, are you alright?”
Looking at the people worried about her, Kiana's gaze unconsciously turned towards the light screen not far away.
“I'm fine, I just couldn't stop Otto. When we were fighting, this light screen suddenly appeared and separated us. He's on the other side of the light screen.”
Behind everyone, Liliya, who was initially full of energy, quickly became drowsy.
“Ah!~Ugh...”
Seeing this, Rozaliya quickly reminded her:
“Huh? Liliya, what's wrong with you? This isn't the time to doze off!” As she spoke, she suddenly felt sleepy herself; “We should... huh? Why am I suddenly so sleepy, too?”
Looking at the two suddenly drowsy people, Seele, who had been by their side, also began to worry.
“Rozaliya, Liliya, are you two alright?” 』
『 。。。。。』
~Dimensional livestream, Chat Room~
【 Seele (Honkai: Impact Third): “Huh? Why am I in there, too?” 】
【 Seele (Honkai: Impact Third): “Bronya Onee-chan, what's going on here?” 】
【 Bronya (Honkai: Impact Third): “Seele, are you alright?” 】
【 Seele (Honkai: Impact Third): “I'm fine, I've been waiting for Bronya Onee-chan, but why is Seele up there?” 】
【 Bronya (Honkai: Impact Third): “No, this is a good thing, just watch carefully, okay?” 】
【 Seele (Honkai: Star Rail): “Seele understands!” 】
【 Natasha (Honkai: Star Rail): “Bronya, Onee-chan?” 】
【 Natasha (Honkai: Star Rail): “Seele, look, your counterpart from that world has appeared.” 】
【 March 7th (Honkai: Star Rail): “Woohoo~” 】
【 Seele (Honkai: Star Rail): “??” 】
【 Venti (Genshin Impact): “Interesting.” 】
【 Paimon (Genshin Impact): “How nice, another self.” 】
【 Bronya (Honkai: Star Rail): “Exactly, come on, call me Onee-chan.” 】
【 Seele (Honkai: Star Rail): “You scoundrel, don't get carried away! That's the other me from that world, not me.” 】
【 Bronya (Honkai: Star Rail): “It's fine, I know Bronya is Seele's Onee-chan, hehehe.” 】
【 Natasha (Honkai: Star Rail): “Not bad, quite good.” 】
【 Cocolia (Honkai: Star Rail): “...” 】
【 Bronya (Honkai: Impact Third): “???” 】
【 。。。。。】
『 On the other side, Bronya, who was sensing something, suddenly spoke:
“The closer I get to here, the heavier my body feels. This feeling is like a puppet losing all its strength, similar, yet not entirely the same.”
Compared to others, Bronya could more directly feel the changes in the surrounding energy field.
Because of this, she quickly formed a hypothesis.
Just then, a communication connected.
“Hello? Is the communication normal? Can you hear me?” Theresa's image appeared before everyone.
Seeing Theresa on the communicator, Kiana, who had calmed down, concisely reported the situation.
“Principal, this is Kiana. Communication is fine. Bronya and I just met up in front of the church.”
Learning that they were safe, Theresa, on the other end of the communicator,r seemed to breathe a sigh of relief.
“That's great, you're safe. The communication has been unstable since just now. I was worried you'd also lose contact like Mr. Welt.”
“I just saw a huge light screen appear near the church from the Hyperion with the doctors. The energy readings on the instruments are strange. Have you found anything?” 』
『 。。。。。』
~Dimensional livestream, Chat Room~
【 March 7th (Honkai: Star Rail): “Mr. Welt? Could it be that this person is?” 】
【 Welt Yang (Honkai: Star Rail): “This person is me, it's what happened in my past.” 】
【 Umaru Doma (Himouto): “Wait, you're also a transmigrator?” 】
【 Rimuru (Tensura): “Welcome to the transmigrator/Isekai family.” 】
【 Ainz Ooal Gown (Overlord): “Welcome?” 】
【 Kiana (Honkai: Impact Third): “What exactly is happening? Teacher Yang is right next to us. Why is it like this?” 】
【 Welt Yang (Honkai: Impact Third): “My future self, interesting.” 】
【 Theresa (Honkai: Impact Third): “Could it be that our future...” 】
【 Welt Yang (Honkai: Star Rail): “Not really, I just had a small accident.” 】
【 Aki Tomoya (Saekano): “A small accident that allows for transmigration...” 】
【 。。。。。】
『 “This light screen should be a measure Otto took to isolate us from the outside world. He entered the church alone just as the light screen rose.” Kiana slowly recounted what she had witnessed with her own eyes.
“Otto? You really ran into him?” As soon as she heard Otto's name, Theresa seemed to realize something.
Kiana nodded, agreeing with Theresa's thought, then continued:
“As soon as the light screen appeared, he was muttering something about the gift of the Imaginary Tree, the power of a god, and so on.”
“Also, when I first got there, he was clutching the Abyss Flower, saying it was left by the first visitor.”
“Abyss Flower? The first visitor, could it be Durandal?” As soon as Theresa mentioned the Abyss Flower, she thought of the blonde knight. 』
『 。。。。。』
~Dimensional livestream, Chat Room~
【 March 7th (Honkai: Star Rail): “Isn't this the weapon of that blonde lady?” 】
【 Durandal (Honkai: Impact Third): “If nothing unexpected happens, then the first visitor should be me.” 】
【 Durandal (Honkai: Impact Third): “But why would I leave my weapon here? Why would the Bishop do this?” 】
【 Umaru Doma (Himouto): “He must not trust you, so he made you leave your weapon here.” 】
【 Durandal (Honkai: Impact Third): “This...” 】
【 。。。。。】
『 After all, within Schicksal, only Durandal could use that weapon.
However, in Dr. Tesla's eyes, Durandal had another identity.
“Huh? Isn't Durandal Otto's subordinate? Are they fighting among themselves?”
Indeed, Durandal was under Schicksal's command and shouldn't be an enemy of Otto.
No one present understood what was going on.
Even Kiana, who had been tracking Otto all the way here, wasn't clear about the specific situation.
So, she poured out everything she had seen and heard.
“I don't know, anyway, everyone is now blocked outside the church by this light screen, and the Abyss Flower is right in front of us.”
“The strange thing is, this light screen seems to be able to weaken and suppress Herrscher's powers.”
As a Herrscher, she felt the suppressive force deeply.
But Kiana still didn't understand what this thing was.
Dr. Einstein from Anti-Entropy was silent for a moment, then asked Theresa: “Ms. Theresa, what do you think?”
“There's nothing more to question. Because all clues point to one thing.”
Theresa dropped a shocking piece of news: “This light screen is most likely a display of the Herrscher of Binding's authority, just like the previous Divine Grace Barrier.”
“What?” Kiana was also shocked at this possibility: “You're saying the Herrscher of Binding appeared in this town? How is that possible!”
The bitter battle with the Herrscher of Binding was still fresh in her memory.
If they really encountered the Herrscher of Binding here, those who relied on Honkai energy to fight would probably be in grave danger.
Fortunately, everyone hadn't lost their composure, and Dr. Einstein quickly explained:
“Everyone, calm down, we're talking about the Herrscher of Binding's authority, there's no alert for a new Herrscher core appearing.”
“Even a simulated version of the Oath of Judah couldn't create such a large barrier.” Theresa's expression was grave.
Dr. Einstein also became serious: “Combined with Otto's previous words, this is more like power originating from the Imaginary Tree.”
However, Dr. Tesla, on the communication, was still impatient: “No matter what, the situation is tricky now. We need to find a way to break this light screen quickly and take down Otto!”
Given the situation, for everyone's safety, Theresa issued new orders.
“Kiana, Bronya, you two take everyone to a safe place and wait. As for the light screen problem, the doctors and I will figure out a solution.”
“Remember not to get close to this light screen. If this is truly the power of the Herrscher of Binding, it will definitely cause irreversible effects on your bodies.”
“Okay, no problem.” Kiana earnestly agreed.
The scene shifts to the interior of the Hyperion at this moment.
Several doctors were discussing the response strategy with Theresa.
The red-haired Dr. Tesla looked at the huge light screen not far away and shouted excitedly:
“Ah! It's really infuriating! That bastard, if you have the guts, come out and fight me fair and square! What's so great about hiding in that church?”
“Calm down, Dr. Tesla. Complaining here won't change the situation.” Dr. Einstein calmly said: “Besides... we still have a method worth trying, don't we?”
Dr. Tesla, who was furious, immediately turned her gaze to the blue-haired doctor in front of her upon hearing this crucial information.
“Hmm? Chicken Head, did you come up with a good idea? Hurry up and tell me!”
Although Dr. Tesla always called Dr. Einstein “Chicken Head,” this did not diminish Dr. Einstein's brilliance.
So at this moment, this guy in front of her might really come up with a surprising move to break the deadlock.
Soon, under Dr. Tesla's persistent questioning, Einstein slowly explained her plan:
“Perhaps, we can use the Hyperion's Moonlight Throne to break that light screen.” 』
『 。。。。。』
~Dimensional livestream, Chat Room~
【 March 7th (Honkai: Star Rail): “Moonlight Throne, isn't that the thing that was mentioned before?” 】
【 Einstein (Honkai: Impact Third): “Later, we at Anti-Entropy also completed the manufacturing of this weapon.” 】
【 Otto (Honkai: Impact Third): “Things have already happened, and I'm very sorry to say~” 】
【 Kiana (Honkai: Impact Third): “...” 】
【 Kohta Hirano (High School of the Dead): “Does that mean this weapon is very powerful? How does it compare to the Tsar Bomba?” 】
【 Tesla (Honkai: Impact Third): “I don't understand what you mean by Tsar Bomba, but it is indeed our most effective weapon against Honkai energy.” 】
【 。。。。。】
『 “Moonlight Throne? But isn't that a weapon for fighting Herrschers?” Dr. Tesla looked at Dr. Einstein, who proposed this suggestion, with confusion.
The Moonlight Throne was their trump card, specifically designed to counter Herrschers. Now they had to use it against this light screen, too?
Dr. Einstein then explained why they needed to use the Moonlight Throne:
“The reason the Moonlight Throne can fight Herrschers is that it can convert the Honkai energy within the Herrschers' bodies into conventional energy. In other words, the Moonlight Throne's attack does not fall within the scope of Honkai.”
“We just need to provide it with additional Honkai energy, and it can be used as a beam weapon with astonishing power.”
“Originally, against the authority of Binding, if we used Herrscher's power or ordinary Honkai energy weapons to attack it, it would be like trying to crack a rock with an egg.”
“But if it's a conventional energy weapon, then we don't need to worry about this thing too much, right? Then we can start bombing to our heart's content!” Dr. Tesla seemed to have opened up a new world.
Dr. Tesla said bitterly, “Damn it, I should have brought my Silver Bullet.”
Only her own equipment could provide enough conventional firepower to vent her anger.
She originally thought this time they would be fighting a Herrscher,
who knew they would directly encounter a Herrscher-level attack.
All weapons relying on Honkai energy might not be able to unleash their full power at this time.
However, Dr. Tesla's idea was immediately opposed by Dr. Einstein (Honkai: Impact Third):
“Then you have to consider the safety of innocent civilians around.”
“No matter what, one thing is certain: no matter what principle that light screen uses to achieve its binding ability, it requires some operating mechanism to consume energy.”
“Where there's operation, there's a tolerance limit. The power of binding can naturally neutralize conventional energy, but it wasn't designed for that.”
“So, our output will more easily exceed that threshold.” 』
『 。。。。。』
~Dimensional livestream, Chat Room~
【 Oyama Mahiro (Onimai): “If it exceeds a certain set threshold, will there be any danger?” 】
【 Einstein (Honkai: Impact Third): “You're right, we haven't seen anything like this before. Our future selves will probably just have to try it.” 】
【 Tesla (Honkai: Impact Third): “What's wrong with danger? As long as we can defeat this hateful guy, it's worth it!” 】
【 Tesla (Honkai: Impact Third): “Who cares, as long as I can see myself beating Otto, I'll be happy.” 】
【 Otto (Honkai: Impact Third): “You're really aggressive, Dr. Tesla. We'll see if you get the chance.” 】
【 。。。。。】
『 So, in the end, we're just going head-to-head, seeing whose head is tougher! Dr. Tesla's single sentence hit the essence of this attack.
Dr. Einstein had no choice but to quickly concede to this statement: “Hmm, that's pretty much the situation.”
“But what if the Moonlight Throne's power doesn't reach the threshold of that light wall?” Theresa asked with some concern.
The Hyperion's energy wasn't inexhaustible.
If all the energy was burned up and they still couldn't deal with this, then they really didn't know what other tricks they had up their sleeves.
To this crucial question posed by Theresa, even the astute Dr. Einstein could only helplessly shake her head:
“Then there's nothing we can do, we'll have to find another way when that time comes.”
Because at present, the only firepower they had that could affect that strange light wall was the Moonlight Throne on the Hyperion.
But any plan could be accompanied by risks, and there was only one way to deal with these risks, which was to devise a new plan; after all, there was no other way.
“So, according to you, to be safe, should we start by putting all of Hyperion's energy on the line for a decisive blow?” The always impatient Dr. Tesla looked at Dr. Einstein with confusion.
After all, if they didn't know the light wall's tolerance limit, instead of slowly consuming energy to prepare, it would be better to have the Moonlight Throne go all out and gamble on whether it could directly blast open that light wall.
It must be said, this was very much in Dr. Tesla's style. However, Dr. Einstein found a flaw in Tesla's plan:
“But conversely, if the Moonlight Throne operates at full power from the start and fails... our Hyperion will completely lose its combat capability.”
If it succeeded, everything would be fine, then they could slowly recharge and let the people on the ground seize the opportunity to go in and take down Otto.
But what if it didn't work?
That would be terrible.
The Hyperion would run out of energy and lose its combat power, and the light wall would never be opened again.
At that time, they could only watch helplessly as Otto carried out his evil plan.
Theresa, who had spent the longest time with Otto and had the closest relationship, also had some worries:
“Indeed, if Otto is truly like his usual self, he definitely has a backup plan.”
Although she said that, Theresa had already decided in her heart: “However, no matter what, this plan itself is sound. I'll go inform Kiana first.”
Now, the only thing they could try was the Moonlight Throne on the Hyperion.
Even if they didn't use full power, only a portion of the energy for the attack, they still had to inform Kiana and the others on the ground.』

(Translator-kun: Okay, I know.. I know.. Timeline purists—yes, Bronya and Seele from HSR technically don’t meet until the Astral Express arrives in Belobog. and a bit OOC.... But just roll with it and treat this as an AU scenario since the livestream arrives. Don’t overthink, just enjoy this reaction!
And also don't start with me about the difference between transmigrator and isekai. I know about that, just keep in mind that thing wasn't till 2025, and this Inventory fanfic was made in 2022/2023.)
