Chapter 64 The Hyperion, it seems I really will have to leave it to you.
As Himeko ran, she heard the voice of Yu Du Chen Fu Hua.
After listening to Fu Hua's explanation, she finally understood what the thing in her hand was.
Looking down at the inhibitor in his hand, the liquid in the glass tube gleamed coldly under the light.
"...You only have one chance."
Himeko murmured softly, but her voice was disturbed by the surrounding noise as she ran, and Mei and Tesla did not hear it.
She simply gripped the inhibitor tightly, a slight upturn at the corners of her mouth—not quite a smile, but more like a sense of relief.
"Himeko-sensei..."
Mei's voice came from behind, trembling noticeably.
Himeko turned to look at Mei when she heard Mei's voice, then looked at Dr. Tesla beside her. Her gaze was calm, as if she were calmly analyzing the situation on the battlefield.
"Mei, take Dr. Tesla to a safe place."
"Then, Himeko-sensei, you..."
"I'll go back and help Fu Hua. After all, my class monitor has such a big problem. As a teacher, I can't back down and let my student take the fall."
Himeko smiled, just like always.
Mei's lips trembled slightly; she wanted to stop the other person, but...
"This is an order. Execute the order, Raiden Mei."
Mei's lips moved, as if she wanted to say something.
But Himeko had already turned around and walked in another direction.
That figure wasn't broad, but it was like a wall, blocking everything on the other side.
Mei stood there, watching the red figure walk further and further away until it disappeared from her sight.
Tesla tugged at her sleeve and whispered, "Let's go, she...she's made up her mind."
I really hate people like that, people who don't care about their own lives.
This kind of person is the dumbest.
"Also, what do you mean, take me to a safe place? Take me to the Helheim laboratory. There's still something there we haven't gotten our hands on. There's definitely something Otto left behind!"
Upon hearing Tesla's words, Mei bit her lip and immediately took Tesla and ran towards the Helheim Laboratory.
Rita is currently confronting the class monitor and certainly doesn't have the energy to deal with them.
Mei bit her lip and quickly left with Dr. Tesla.
Her steps were hurried.
She wanted to go see Professor Himeko immediately after settling Dr. Tesla in.
Himeko walked down the empty corridor, her footsteps echoing between the metal walls, each step like a countdown.
She pushed open the laboratory door, and the armored vehicle stood silently inside the hull, its red paint resembling congealed blood in the dim light.
"Is this what it is...?"
She uttered the name in a calm tone, as if calling an old friend.
Fu Hua's figure materialized and stood beside her, looking at the being created by the Blank Key that could fight against the Herrscher.
"When you put on this armor, the Herrscher's gems will begin to corrupt your mind."
"I will do my best to stop its erosion."
"But more importantly, it's about yourself."
Himeko looked at the armor in front of her, and after a moment, she turned her gaze to Fu Hua.
"So Fu Hua, who exactly are you...?"
"I'm just like you, someone who hopes to change the status quo."
She took off her coat, revealing the combat suit underneath, and walked step by step into the experimental chamber.
As the armor components were attached to her body piece by piece, Fu Hua, the heroine of Yu Du Chen, also exhausted her energy.
"Major Himeko, thank you for your continued guidance."
"See you in the future."
The final component snapped shut with a dull click.
Himeko clenched her fist, feeling the power surging within her.
That wasn't her power; within this armor, the core of the Herrscher of Flame, the Plague Gem, was burning.
But she doesn't care.
She turned around and walked towards the door.
The sky outside was gray, and the distant roar of an explosion could be heard.
She looked at her Hyperion and forcefully lifted her greatsword with her hands.
"Looks like I'm really leaving my Hyperion to you."
She uttered those words softly and then took a step.
The red armor looked like a ball of fire under the gray sky.
She walked steadily, without hesitation at any step.
Fu Hua's palm pressed against the blade of the scythe, their strength locked in a stalemate.
Rita's scythe didn't move forward an inch, and Fu Hua took the opportunity to kick Rita straight in the abdomen.
Rita reached out to block, and the next second her body was sent flying by the impact of the force. She flipped in mid-air and landed gracefully on the ground.
"Lady Fu Hua, please don't waste your energy. In your current state, you can't defeat the Second Herrscher."
Fu Hua did not answer the other party; she was still trying to break through.
Rita was not annoyed by this, but continued to stall Fu Hua.
Just then, a figure rushed out from the ruins nearby.
Hearing the noise, both of them turned to look, with Rita staring at the other person curiously.
Seele ran to Fu Hua's side, slightly out of breath, and then she took the scythe in her hand.
"Squad leader, go help Brother Chen Feng, I'll take care of things here."
Fu Hua hesitated upon hearing these words.
Seele doesn't seem to have a chance against Rita at all.
"I'll hold her off."
Upon seeing Fu Hua's gaze, Seele immediately looked back at her with a determined expression.
The next second, her pupils turned crimson, and her aura underwent a dramatic change, with a sharp aura bursting forth from her body.
Upon sensing this aura, Fu Hua did not hesitate and instantly brushed past Rita in the next second.
"Be careful."
After leaving those words, Fu Hua vanished from the spot in an instant.
Rita ignored Fu Hua as she left.
"After all, I have to face two people now, and I can't stop two people by myself."
So, I let one go because I wasn't strong enough. I hope the Bishop won't blame me?
Rita said this with a smile on her face.
She looked at the little girl blocking her way, who exuded a dangerous aura, and sighed helplessly.
She twirled the scythe in her hand, then pointed the blade at Hei hope and laughed.
"Then, miss, please take good care of me."
Black Seele did not speak.
In her hand, a black scythe slowly materialized.
She looked at Rita as if she were looking at a decent opponent, and the corners of her mouth turned up.
"...Please don't die, I want to fight a little longer."
