Book 5: Chapter 24:2: Sirin Starting to Puff Up, Part 2
“Damn it. Why does this man know what I’m going to do? This keeps happening. Can he see the future?” Patricia grumbled just as she was about to leap back.
Sirin fired a Subspace Lance at Patricia, sealing off Patricia’s escape path, then three Subspace Lances in a V formation. Patricia barreled to the left to avoid this wave of attacks before tossing a hand grenade at Sirin.
Because of Chen Heng’s forewarning, Sirin used her spatial ability to move the hand grenade beside Patricia. That way, Patricia would be hoisted with her own petard.
Patricia used her two Gatling guns to block. While this negated the effects of the blast, the Subspace Lance that followed close behind struck her right arm and tore it off; her right arm and weapon fell to the floor.
“Sirin, destroy the weapon in the Valkyrie’s left hand. That weapon can self-destruct. Also, don’t let her pick up the weapon she dropped.”
“Got it, Elder Brother.”
Sirin shot the weapon on the ground with a Subspace Lance, then followed up with more Subspace Lances to force Patricia farther away, preventing Patricia from picking up the dropped weapon.
After that, Sirin targeted the remaining weapon in Patricia’s hand, bombarding it with Subspace Lances.
Although Patricia was an A-Ranked Valkyrie and the weapon in her hand was extremely resilient, it could not hold up against such a ruthless assault. The damage to the remaining Gatling gun’s barrel rendered it useless.

“Alright, Sirin, stop chasing. Let her go. She is still useful.” Chen Heng stopped Sirin from chasing the one-armed, weaponless Patricia.
“Alright. Sirin, continue absorbing Honkai Energy.”
“But, Elder Brother, are we not going to hide? Someone will come to investigate the big commotion we caused, right?” Sirin hesitated for a while before speaking her mind.
“Don’t worry, don’t worry. I laid a silencing barrier nearby while you were fighting. This reduced the noise from your battle to practically nothing. That’s why I said you should cultivate the Void Arts I gave you more. Look, you have not even reached the middle stage of the Energy Refinement Realm.”
“Ah! I’m not listening! I’m not listening! I’m going to absorb Honkai Energy. Elder Brother, don’t interrupt me.”
“Alright, alright, alright. Continue absorbing. You should know that you had better absorb as much as possible within 10 minutes. Someone will come and check on the situation in 11 minutes and 20 seconds. The ones coming are properly trained Valkyries. We won’t be able to hide our disappearance for too long.”
“Will the person who fled tell others?”
I Have a Strong Presence: Am I the only one who cares why He Who Knows Fate had to put on his younger sister’s shoes for her?
Blank Never Loses: Isn’t helping one’s younger sister put on shoes normal? I even dress my younger sister when she refuses to get out of bed.
Faillen Angel Gabriel: Damn sisco...Boss, you are really nice to your younger sister.
I Have a Strong Presence: I now realize my presence is also very weak in this chat group.
Iron Fist Teacher: This should be the result of your ability. It looks like Sage Megumi’s ability has already started to affect the association.
Queen of Ice and Snow: Credit where credit is due, Sage Megumi’s ability is quite bug-like.
I Have a Strong Presence: I’d rather this ability not be so strong.
Flat-Chested Chinese: He Who Knows Fate, are you confident your younger sister won’t get affected by the Will of Honkai?
He Who Knows Fate: Let’s put it this way. If the Will of Honkai affects my younger sister, I’ll pluck off my head for you to use as a punching bag. Actually, if she really gets affected by the Will of Honkai, the most miserable one won’t be her but the Will of Honkai.
Flat-Chested Chinese: Huh?
He Who Knows Fate: If the Will of Honkai affects my younger sister, I will go to my ancestor for help. When my ancestor learns the Will of Honkai broke through his gift to affect the user, he will be furious. When he gets angry...who knows, maybe your world will stop being affected by Honkai.
Flat-Chested Chinese: What do you mean?
Umaru-chan: Just the Will of Honkai being eliminated.
Flat-Chested Chinese: ...Then should I be rooting for the Will of Honkai?
Umaru-chan: Actually, I have taken a look at the Honkai world and found that it is a reasonably high-grade world, actually made up of countless worlds. The Honkai Impact 3rd world is just one of them. This...wouldn’t destroying the world consciousness be a little difficult?
Self-Centered Elder Sister Shiki: There’s no need to worry about that. Let me put it this way: to be rather pretentious, those who cannot transcend are mere ants. Transcenders cannot be judged solely by their combat prowess. In the eyes of some exceptionally powerful transcenders, those who are not transcenders are nothing more than books that can be edited at will. However, such actions are strictly prohibited by the Dimension Administrators Association except under special circumstances.
Umaru-chan: Just pretend I said nothing.
