Chapter 301 — Sorry, Sisters!
🕑 Added 2025-09-04 15:00:16 +0000 UTCIn the false memories, during the Second Eruption, the Herrscher of the Void—Sirin—hurled four meteors at Earth from the surface of the moon.
That single act alone caused over thirty million deaths.
And that wasn’t all—at Babylon Tower, the impact triggered a massive eruption, releasing half a million Honkai beasts that ravaged all of Siberia, leaving fewer than a hundred survivors.
Within those memories were Valkyrie squads, battered and bloodied, still fighting to cover civilians’ escape… and scenes of Honkai beasts tearing through humans, splattering blood everywhere.
Every pair of eyes brimmed with despair.
The blazing tyrannical flames of destruction dyed the world red, painting a nightmarish doomsday of carnage.
Yes—these were false memories, created by Nagami.
But why would Nagami create such memories?
To Kiana, Nagami was like a blue robotic cat who could do anything—always calm and in control, always preparing everything ahead of time.
As long as she was by his side, she never had to worry.
He’d take care of everything, so she could just be herself—an adorable paramecium everyone doted on.
Nagami knew everything.
He could even bend time and space itself.
Picking up her long-abandoned brain for once, Kiana quickly pieced it together.
The reason Nagami crafted those memories… was because in real history, that was exactly what Sirin had done.
Nagami wanted to prevent the future from straying too far, so he recorded the past as it had originally unfolded.
Which meant that she—that they, Sirin—had once killed tens of millions, perhaps even hundreds of millions, of humans.
When Kiana first realized this, a wave of dizziness crashed over her.
Her heart seemed to stop; her whole body felt as if it were plummeting into an endless abyss of nightmares.
Even now, just thinking about it made her heartbeat thunder, her breath grow ragged, her body tremble uncontrollably.
“…What are you trying to say?”
Golden pupils dimmed slightly, Sirin’s voice finally carrying a trace of seriousness.
“We are Sirin…”
Lifting her head, the white-haired girl stared into the mirror on the nightstand.
Her mismatched eyes—noble blue and gold reflected back at her.
“In the original history, we were sinners beyond redemption…”
Nearly a hundred million lives had been snuffed out by these hands.
Kiana spread out her palms, gazing at her delicate, pale fingers as if they were dripping with blood.
“Hah. ‘Beyond redemption?’” Sirin sneered at Kiana’s turmoil.
“Then what about what Schicksal’s researchers did to us? Does that count for nothing?
Besides—Nagami has already changed history. In the real Second Eruption, he saved all those ants.”
Sirin’s personality had been born from the Herrscher of the Void’s negative emotions, meanwhile Kiana emotion was born from her wish to have a normal family.
But because Nagami had stopped the Honkai Will’s final wave of corruption, her hatred toward humanity wasn’t as extreme as in the original timeline.
Still, she didn’t value human lives like normal people did.
Now, Sirin had no desire to wipe out humanity or destroy civilization.
She only wanted to live happily with her mother and Nagami—and kill anyone who dared stand in the way of that happiness.
“…You’re right. Not only did Nagami bring our mom back… he changed history itself.”
Her voice softened, tender as moonlight.
Silvery-white hair cascaded down her back, long lashes catching the glow.
In that moment, Kiana looked almost divine—like she had evolved from a clumsy paramecium into an angelic goddess.
From accepting that she was truly Sirin, to being crushed beneath the weight of having killed millions, to then being freed from that sin—it had all happened in less than half a month.
The paramecium had experienced a journey from hell to heaven.
All the sins Sirin committed during the Second Eruption… had vanished along with the black-haired boy’s manipulation of time.
What remained in her heart now was only an overwhelming surge of love.
Kiana remembered what that boy had said to the Herrscher of Domination:
‘Ich liebe dich.’
Those gentle words were like a spell, dispersing her fear—and igniting the flame inside her heart.
Her lashes trembled as she lowered her eyes, hiding the shimmer of emotions that rippled like autumn water.
“…You’re not planning to—?!”
Sirin’s golden eyes widened, startled, caught off guard.
“Mhm!”
Kiana leapt off the bed, her long white hair flowing like silk.
She clenched her fists before the mirror, pumping herself up.
‘Sorry, sisters!’
“You—you…!”
For a moment, panic flickered across her delicate face.
But under the steady gaze of those blue eyes, her expression settled into calm—tinged with a nervous determination.
Thinking that love was some kind of “war,” where the first one to confess is the loser… that was just plain stupid.
Striking first has always been the ultimate truth.
She couldn’t just sit back and do nothing, even if she knew Nagami would still treat her like a lovable idiot regardless.
So…
“Kiana, deploy!”
Kiana swept her soft hair back behind her ear, revealing the delicate nape of her neck hidden beneath her shoulder-length strands.
She slapped her cheeks lightly to steel herself, adjusting her expression.
Then, with resolve, she opened her door and headed toward Nagami’s room.

“Hmm da-da-da da! Da da-da-da da! Da! Da!”
Inside her room, Mei was humming cheerfully, her delicate, fair face glowing with a radiant, gentle smile as she hugged her pillow and rolled around on the bed.
Raiden Ryoma, of course, couldn’t stay at the dorms.
After a surprisingly warm father-daughter conversation, he had politely asked Nagami to send him back to the Anti-Entropy base.
But that wasn’t what Mei was excited about.
Today… she kissed Nagami!
And when Kiana and Bronya reunited with their mother, Nagami noticed her little twinge of loneliness and brought her father over as well.
That unexpected surprise made Mei, who was already overjoyed, even happier.
Now she lay restlessly tossing and turning, unable to sleep, her mind filled entirely with Nagami’s image.
She was every bit the love-struck teenage girl, with none of the composure of the “Queen of Thunder.”
————————————————————————
[Since that’s the case, what are you still hesitating for? Just push him down already!]
————————————————————————
A sudden voice echoed in her mind. A faint spark of lightning flickered across her violet eyes, but Mei barely reacted, as if long used to it.
“E-Eh?!” The wolfish words caught her off guard, and she let out a startled gasp.
Her pale face flushed scarlet in an instant, panic plain on her features. “W-What are you even saying, the other me!?”
————————————————————————
[Hmph. After everything we’ve been through, you’re still just as timid as before. Where’s the resolve you had when we fought the Herrscher of Domination?]
[I can’t stand watching you like this. If you want him that badly, then go get him!]
[Hold him tight, lift his chin with your hand, kiss him hard—and then…]
————————————————————————
Her long hair spilled down her back, her tall, graceful figure bathed in sharp moonlight.
With every word her Herrscher side spoke, faint arcs of electricity sparked across her skin.
But in the next instant, they all fizzled out.
Mei’s face burned like it was on fire, white steam practically puffing from her head as her eyes spun into dizzy swirls.
“Th-this, this, th-this kind of thing, no matter what—!”
“…”
“Tell me honestly… have you been reading some kind of strange book lately?”
Thanks to Nagami, Mei and her Herrscher persona had a very close relationship, with plenty of mutual understanding.
The Herrscher might act domineering at times, but deep down she was all bark and no bite.
————————————————————————
[Well… there was this interesting book. Something like ‘The Queen’s Overbearing Romance With Her Boy Toy.’]
————————————————————————
Her tone carried a faint, suspicious nuance.
Mei opened her mouth, but no words came out. At last, she sighed. “You’re calling me timid? Fine. Take over my body, then—you do it.”
Her Herrscher side was also her, after all. No need for courtesy.
————————————————————————
[…]
————————————————————————
The proud, majestic Thunder Queen fell silent in her mind, not daring to continue.
Sure, she had the guts to talk about a forceful kiss—and maybe even to actually do it!—but if things went any further… well, she was all bark after all.
Mei wasn’t surprised in the slightest by her reaction.
She let out a helpless little smile.
“…Still, you’re not wrong. Sometimes, a girl has to take the initiative.”
With that, Mei’s expression grew more serious.
She absently twirled a strand of hair, hesitated for a heartbeat, then set her jaw with newfound resolve.
She opened her door and, with steady steps, began walking toward Nagami’s room.
