The girl heard that a person's entire life will playback in slow motion when they're dying. There's only darkness before her. "Did the Honkai beast pierce me with its lance?" The girl's mind was a confused mess. Unlike the hapless victims who could only scream and flee to escape the one-sided butchery... "Why am I still alive? Am I beyond redemption? Must I live and witness the fruits of my acts? Perhaps I think I could resist HER... perhaps I can save them... ...perhaps I hope for the recess bell to ring and wake me up from this terrible nightmare." She did not know which one was the truth. Nothing but an eternity of darkness awaits... Kiana's mind was spiraling out of control. The girl grasped at her fondest memories... But those memories became shattered shards that came flying at her...

Kiana was now in a grey place where Kiana's memories played. Then I appeared 5 seconds after she did. Every event that happened and everything up till now. I saw the memory of the event at Soukai City, the sweet memories event. Then I saw the Sakura Samsara memories. With both our minds linked, the memories from our time from enrolling in St. Freya Academy to now.

Finally Drago appeared. He was in his former form what he looked like when he became a Herrscher. "It's happened again." Said Drago. "I know it happened again!" Said Kiana. "Let's just try to end this as soon as we can." I said. We walked down the grey floor till we stopped near the edge.

At the edge floated Sirin. What she used to look like. Long purple hair and golden eyes. "Now there's the true form of Siren just like at the tower of Babylon labs." I said. "Something I have not seen for a really long time." Said Drago.

Suddenly, copies of Mei and Theresa appeared. "Auntie Theresa! Mei-Senpai!" Shouted Kiana. "Your friends... they said they'll bring you home... And Patrick said that too when the time is right that he will bring you back to them after you refused... ...but if they realized your true self... ...will they welcome you with open arms?" "They already saw that at Schicksal HQ. Even Theresa discovered the horrible truth about Kiana. And Himeko too. I heard her say that. Fu Hua knew from the start and kept it top secret. And so did Rita and Durandal. After we beat that fake copy of Welt Joyce. Drago showed me down to that place where Einstein, Cocolia, and Theresa were. Then before we entered the data space, Drago and I found out more about the Celine Project, the 2nd Honkai Outbreak, and Otto's true intentions. Show them."

Drago made an image appear and showed a room with clones inside testing pods labeled project Celine. "Ah yes. The other K1 clones. Overseer Otto started that project to bring me back. He infused Kaslana and Schariac DNA with my DNA to create those clones. And you... K423." Kiana couldn't process. Only to be more hurt with more of the truth. "To these "friends" of yours... ...the girl named Kiana is no more. They will try to save you by destroying you." Then Sirin made the copies attack us.

"I'm sorry, Kiana-Chan..." Said Fake Mei. "I had to do this..." Said Fake Theresa. "Theresa! Mei-Senpai! What are you doing?" "KYAHAHAHAHAH~⭐️" I used ice and froze their legs. "Kiana! They're not real. They're fake copies created by Sirin. Fight them." Kiana and I faced them head on and managed to defeat them in seconds.

Sirin teleported down further away as more floor appeared for us to walk down. Another memory appeared. It was the memory of after we finished our exams when Kiana fell into a dream created by Sirin.

"Before Rita left. She had a mischievous smile on her face which told me that she was up to something and I was right. She was also Otto's other Spy watching you. She's also on my kill list with Durandal. She didn't visit St. Freya to see how the students were, she visited to see how you were doing to see how Otto's experiment and test was going. She was the one who hacked the system to see how you would do against an emperor class Honkai." "Really?" "I'm afraid so. She knew about the Celine Project also."

When we got to the end, Sirin made a copy of Fu Hua appear which made my blood boil. "Remember this fateful face, Kiana? Patrick?" Asked Sirin. "Yes..." I answered with venom in my voice. "She betrayed both your trusts. This vile, arrogant piece of trash..." "evil, insolent traitor. Dark Shadow Phoenix." I spoke. "You both thought she was cold and aloof... ...but she was worse." Explained Sirin. "Fu Hua..." Said Kiana.

"Drago... After it was revealed that you were inside of your host. Overseer Otto was already watching the events that transpired and he was glad to see you with me again." Sirin pulled over an image and showed Otto watching footage of me and Drago fighting against the pseudo-Herrscher. "So the Herrscher of the Dragon is at St. Freya too. He had to choose Robert's son of all people. No matter. More is going according to plan. When the time comes I'll force his power to awaken early and have him show his full power against the 2nd Herrscher, like he did in the 2nd Honkai Outbreak. And he will help me secure Herrscher grade powers too."

"She knew you were a monster... and you... she knew that you were important to the Overseer's plans... ...always watching... waiting to strike you down. She destroyed your lives..." "And helped that bas**** murder billions." "...and delivered you both to Overseer Otto..."

I sighed and said, "Even with Drago's power and Kiana's moonlight battlesuit... she still beat us and Durandal used that thing to neutralize my powers and to make me pass out. Durandal disabled me and helped Fu Hua win. Her shadow knight battle suit annoys me and she's now my most hated Valkyrie like Rita and Durandal." "You're right. Your hatred for her, Rita, and Durandal also drives you. Fu Hua was only pretending to be your friend and tried to kill you... You were always both her prays... Look! She's now hunting for you again⭐️" Sirin made the copy of Fu Hua attack us. But I went in and stabbed the fake in the chest.

"Don't listen to her, Kiana. Don't let her play with your mind." Fu Hua's voice sounded. "SHUT UP!" I screamed. Then I used blue flames and incinerated the fake copy. "Still with the hatred and rage on that girl I see. That's how much you wanted to kill her before Overseer Otto did it first." Taunted Sirin.

Sirin teleported farther again and made more floor appear. We went down there, then Sirin made a copy of Otto Apocalypse appear which instantly made me blinded by rage that I charged in. "You bas****!" But then Sirin blocked my fist with her own hand. "Ah ah ah. Not so fast. You might want to hear him out first. Every time you see his face you get angry with so much rage. That was why Drago's full power was awakened early and why you want to kill him so badly. But first listen to what he has to say."

"CLONE K-423... ...an F1 hybrid of the Kaslana and Schariac dynasties... ...with genes taken from the 2nd Herrscher. Like the others, K-423 matured into a viable individual... ...in vegetative state with no higher brain functions. But after placing the Herrscher Core... ...a sustainable generation of EEG readings in K-423 was detected." Then Sirin made the copy disappear and let go of my fist. "What is that?" Asked Kiana. "What is he talking about?" I asked. "It's how you were made, dear. More precisely, it's how I was brought back." Explained Sirin. "It's not real!" Screamed Kiana. "No it's true." Said Drago.

"That was the reason why Siegfried escaped with you and not the real you... to prevent Otto Apocalypse from reawakening Sirin." "It's also the reason why he abandoned you. Because of Sirin. Every time you were near the Honkai, the Herrscher core inside you gathered enough Honkai Energy to reawaken Sirin. She tried to kill Siegfried while you slept but failed which made your father use his Divine Key to stop Sirin. That was what caused him to lose his arm. Realizing that his lifestyle would bring you harm as he was a victim to Sirin and couldn't bring himself to harm you. He had to abandon you to keep you safe so that Sirin doesn't awaken again. He had to watch you from a distance where Sirin won't be able to detect him. I figured it out once I learned everything." "Correct. Bravo. Except Siegfried did not stop Overseer Otto from reawakening me. He only delayed the inevitable. He brought me down in the 2nd Honkai Eruption and wanted revenge on him but he still managed to beat me. But thankfully I made him lose his arm."

"That was the reason why... my old man abandoned me?... because of Sirin?" Asked Kiana. "I'm afraid so. Before he abandoned you, every time he was close to you, Sirin would awaken. He didn't want that to happen. After he lost his arm, he had to abandon you to protect the world so that Sirin doesn't wake up from her slumber like my host said before." Drago answered. "You wouldn't understand if he told you. He probably didn't want you to commit suicide or get scared. Only after the truth was revealed." I said. "If your father escaped with the real you, Otto would have reawakened Sirin before 3 months ago." "Otto Apocalypse used and lied to the Kaslana and Schariac families using them for his plans to use Sirin's powers for his plans. He set them up for his plans. He had your parents married so he can have a test subject resistant to the Honkai and make that person into a Herrscher killer just like your mother. He wanted to use your families blood for his plans. He was gonna get rid of your parents for he didn't want them interfering with his plans. He hated Siegfried the most because of what he did running away from the house of Kaslana. He didn't trust him either and wanted to be rid of him. The reason why he sent the nukes was not to kill Sirin, they were to get rid of your father after seeing him use the Judgement of Shamash at zeroth power. After he gets everything he needs, he was going to kill Theresa for she meant nothing to him and throw her away like a useless doll. He was using us like pawns. He was using and manipulating us for his plans and his experiment."

I sighed before continuing. "You wouldn't understand because you were younger. You had to know when you were older. So now you know the whole truth Kiana... Siegfried was labeled as a wanted fugitive by Schicksal. Leaving you was the only way he can protect you."

"Oh how charming. Explaining everything about the truth. Everything Drago and the Boy said is the truth. He wanted to use Siegfried and Cecellia's daughter's DNA and my DNA to bring me back. If I remember correctly he wanted to use my power and the Herrscher of Death's power to bring someone back from the dead. After so many failed clones he finally had success in making you my perfect vessel."

Then Sirin made a bunch of copies of the K1 clones appear and attack us. Then a crack appeared and a giant eye from Sirin was looking in. "These foolish humans made us. They invited the divine judgement upon themselves. You're just a vessel... ...fashioned by humans to trap me. Your name and childhood were lies... ...fabricated to keep you down. We're both victims of this hateful race. Why don't we work together and... ...teach these lying manipulative insects a lesson? Good. Keep killing! Destroy all this!"

"SHUT UP!!!!" I shot a laser at Sirin only to dodge it. "The only humans you're allowed to kill are all who work for Schicksal!" "Yes. Release your anger!" "I SAID SHUT UP B****!" Finally it sent a nerve in Sirin. "YOU MONSTER! You pure evil! The only humans we're gonna kill are all who work for Schicksal! I don't care if Kiana is a clone. I'm gonna put an end to Honkai experiments on innocent children and nobody will stop me!" I shot blue flames from my hands at Sirin incinerating her but she regenerated in an instant.

Sirin's laughter echoed in the air like a flock of carrion birds circling a dying human. HER crazed laughter was interrupted by a calm, soothing voice. "Good. I don't think I'm too late for this. Time to silence you for good." Fu Hua appeared. "Tsk. I must rid myself of this annoyance. It doesn't matter. There's only that much you could do. I can feel the storm of her emotions... pent up anger and sorrow waiting to explode like how he did with pent up rage and suffering. Her ego grows weaker by the hour. All I need to do is wait. You'll soon witness me dominate this body..." Said Sirin. Then everything flashed around us as we returned to the real world.
