Chapter 20 - Chapter 20: Brother Qian Waves His Hand, No Need for More Words

Jizo Mitama, a Divine Key made from the core of the 12th Herrscher of the Previous Era, the "Herrscher of Corruption." It is currently the only Divine Key that has remained unfinished for tens of thousands of years and its whereabouts are unknown.

Its true form is Rin, the younger sister of one of the Thirteen Flame-Chasers of the Previous Era, Sakura.

Dr. MEI discovered a violent Honkai energy reaction within her body, yet she showed no special abilities. Therefore, she was thought to be the 12th Herrscher and was imprisoned by the Fire Moth.

However, even after awakening as a Herrscher, she retained her human consciousness. A kind girl who willingly let herself be imprisoned, she was brutally tortured and killed due to the fear of the lower-ranking soldiers of the Fire Moth. What no one expected was that the girl's "Herrscher of Corruption" ability officially awakened only after her death.

Upon awakening, she manipulated all of humanity's nuclear bombs to destroy the last three remaining cities of the Previous Era. Finally, under the containment of the MANTIS Sakura, she was trapped in a black box by Dr. MEI for fifty thousand years.

Now, she is filled with raging anger and endless hatred, longing for the day she will be liberated to destroy all of humanity.

She is, without a doubt, an "evil god."

Durandal handed the box to Qian Yi and kindly reminded him, "Be careful. This Divine Key is not just unfinished. It contains a complete Herrscher consciousness. A single misstep, and it will corrupt you."

"Thanks." Qian Yi straightforwardly released Rita.

"Mmm." Durandal nodded. She had long seen that he had no intention of making things difficult for Rita. Otherwise, she would have already sent everyone in the room flying with a few punches and kicks.

"Beautiful carrier pigeon, please tell my dear pen pal that I am very happy to correspond with him. If there is an opportunity in the future, I will definitely visit Schicksal headquarters." As he spoke, Qian Yi folded the letter from Otto and returned it to her, along with a thank-you letter he had written.

"I will relay it to the Lord Overseer as is." Rita gently tucked a strand of hair behind her ear. Her wine-red eyes gazed at the black box in Qian Yi's hand, a faint smile playing on her lips.

This Divine Key seems very important.

After the two left the Raiden residence, Rita asked the blonde beauty beside her, "Lady Durandal, that Divine Key is very dangerous. Is it really okay to hand it over like that? With my strength, I would not have been a burden to you, Lady Durandal."

"Those people didn't intend to make things difficult for you," Durandal said.

"Is this really okay? An unknown Divine Key, a Second Herrscher, and a host for the upcoming Third Herrscher. If we leave them unattended, it could be very serious."

"I know. So after I finish eating, I will visit again, in my capacity as an S-rank Valkyrie."

Just now, Durandal had gone as Rita's friend. Therefore, the Second Herrscher, Third Herrscher, and so on, could be temporarily ignored. Later, after eating and taking a shower, she would take Abyss Flower and go as the S-rank Valkyrie Durandal.

Durandal was just a bit dense, not stupid.

It was true that Cocolia was the mastermind behind the Nagazora crisis, but Kiana, Raiden Mei, and even that Divine Key were the fundamental sources.

If they were not resolved, whether it was the revival of the Second Herrscher, the awakening of the Third Herrscher, or the awakening of that Divine Key, it would bring about a catastrophe.

Bringing them back to Schicksal for strict supervision was the safest way.

Qian Yi and the others didn't know that Durandal was already preparing to transform into General Dumb Goose and block their base entrance later. But they were all well aware that a scoundrel like Otto had no good intentions, so preparing an anti-Otto Noble Phantasm was extremely important!

Seele stared at the black box on the table and posed the question, "So, how do we solve the problem of Rin?"

"We all go into the Stigma Space and ORA ORA her for three hours. If she doesn't listen, we keep ORA-ing until she's obedient!" Kiana said with a serious face, her golden right eye shining particularly brightly.

"Calm down. We are the Dimensional Chat Group, not the Dimensional Mafia. We can't do something so classless," Qian Yi shook his head, rejecting this unfashionable and un-trendy solution.

"I remember, Rin is a fox and loves fried tofu, right? Can we start from there?" Shoko, who had been frantically searching for information about Jizo Mitama and Rin in the manga Kiana uploaded, suggested.

"That might work!" Artoria's face lit up. "Since Herrschers are divided into a good side and an evil side, we can just keep doing things that Rin likes, making her good side stronger and thus weakening her evil side!"

"Mmm, that's indeed a good idea." Talulah was a bit disappointed. She had been hoping to find more enemies to practice on, so that when she fought Koschei in the future, she could give him the best service.

"We must make Rin feel the care of a family and use the power of love to help her overcome the Herrscher consciousness!" Having reached a consensus, Qian Yi immediately assigned tasks. "Then the task of buying fried tofu will be left to you, Shoko, and Mei."

Qian Yi opened a slightly girly-style wallet and took out ten 500-euro bills, handing them to Shoko.

So much money falling into Shoko's hands immediately made her flustered. "Eh, it's just buying some fried tofu. We don't need this much."

This was five thousand euros, which converted to 800,000 yen!

She couldn't earn that much money even if she worked for a whole year.

Kiana's attention was clearly on something else. "Qian Yi, why are you using such a girly wallet? A gift from a girl?"

"Oh, this isn't my wallet. It's Rita's," Qian Yi explained.

Everyone: "???"

Wait a minute, bro!

How did Rita's wallet end up in your hands?

"Why so surprised? It's common sense for enemies to drop loot after being defeated, isn't it?" Qian Yi retorted.

He had to admit, Rita was really rich. The loot from just her was more than he earned from a month of fighting monsters in the TV world.

"This is our common spoils of war. This glory should not be enjoyed by me alone."

Qian Yi took out the rest of the money, divided it into six equal shares, and gave them to Seele, Hiiragi Utena, Kiana, Raiden Mei, Artoria, and Toyokawa Shoko. "Spend freely. Go buy something you like."

"Aren't you taking any for yourself, Qian Yi?" Talulah noticed that Qian Yi had given some to everyone but himself.

"I have already received the best." Qian Yi pointed to the black box on the table.

Shoko clutched the eleven large bills, her palms sweating, her face full of struggle. Her voice even trembled. "But... but isn't this... theft?"

Qian Yi waved his hand. "Shoko, taking without permission is theft. This is normal loot after defeating an enemy. It's our 'Victory Cry' to help us recover quickly and face the next challenge at 100%."

Even heroes need to be paid for saving the world!

If there's no loot and no reward after defeating an enemy, even the most passionate heart will gradually wear down.

Shoko was lost in thought...

Shoko tried to convince herself...

Shoko accepted it with pleasure!

[A new world's door has been opened. Knowledge has increased?.]

[Successfully accepted a teammate's money. Courage has greatly increased??.]

[Feels like the bond with everyone has deepened. Gradually starting to feel happy about being in the dimensional chat group???]
