Book 5: Chapter 38:1: Chen Heng Holds No Grudges Whatsoever (Laughs), Part 1

After arriving near the Honkai reactor, Chen Heng saw Sirin lying on a lounge chair, sipping juice, with Bella holding a fruit tray by her side. Bella sat upright on a chair, occasionally dropping peeled and sliced fruits from the tray into Sirin’s drink.

Oh! The wickedness of capitalism! How envious!

“Sirin, why are you up so early?”

“The thunder woke me up. Then I could not fall back to sleep. Furthermore, I still have not absorbed sufficient Honkai Energy. I gave Bella too much Honkai Energy to create her body.”

“It has been hard on you, my queen. Open up...” Bella fed a slice of orange into Sirin’s mouth.

“Ah...” Nom...nom... “Anyway, I feel that using the Honkai Energy was worth it. Bella is much better than Fafnir. I have to feed Fafnir snacks, but Bella can feed me snacks.” Sirin showed a blissful expression as Bella fed her.

“...You are the one who wanted to feed Fafnir in the first place. Fafnir can eat by herself. In fact, compared to being fed, she prefers to eat on her own without you feeding her. Also, Sirin, don’t keep lying down. You should move about; otherwise, you might get fat.”Read latest chapters at novelhall.com Only

“Don’t worry, Elder Brother. Don’t I have the Gem of Conquest? I can use its electromagnetic ability to eradicate the fat in my body. I won’t get fat.” Sirin waved and fired a spark from her fingertip.

[TL Note: The Gem of Conquest is one of the four Herrscher cores given to Sirin. While they are actually a lesser form of Herrscher Cores and are obtained differently, they can become full Herrscher Cores. Herrscher Cores are normally formed when a person turns into a Herrscher, while the gems were given by the Will of Honkai. However, they are functionally the same in the right hands and are considered cores for the purpose of this story. Apparently, the gem disappears if a true core of that attribute awakens.]

“...Sirin, do you know? There was once a person with an electromagnetic control ability who used this method to remove fat. Do you know what happened to her?”

Chen Heng did not mind Sirin turning into a useless person. In any case, he could support her. Actually, no! He did mind a little. After Sirin joined the association, she would just need to get points from checking in daily and would not have to worry about food or clothes. If so, wouldn’t Sirin become even more useless? Furthermore, using an electromagnetic ability had its disadvantages.

However, Chen Heng did not mind if Sirin was willing to bear the consequences.

The several-hundred-meter-long lightning dragon continuously circled the sky at a low altitude, occasionally charging at the three on the ground and sending down massive lightning bolts.

Chen Heng wondered why the lightning dragon did not approach for close combat. After all, the lightning dragon had an even greater effect on strong enemies in close combat within the Demon-Subduing Lightning Dragon Ritual Array.

Thus, Chen Heng issued a command to this lightning dragon, sending the lightning dragon down to engage the three Valkyries in close combat.

After receiving Chen Heng’s command, the lightning dragon charged down at the three Valkyries. When the three saw the lightning dragon heading for them, they did not think of clashing head-on but split up and dodged.

The lightning dragon was massive, and it had the advantage of its momentum from charging down. Only a fool would clash head-on with the lightning dragon.

“Roar!” When the lightning dragon landed on the ground, it kicked up plenty of snow. Then it flung its tail at the nearby Cecilia.

Right now, the lightning dragon was in the center. Cecilia was at its right rear, Cheng Lixue at its left front, and Shigure Kira directly in front of it.

The massive lightning dragon swept its powerful tail at Cecilia, but she blocked it with her lance. However, the electricity from the attack flowed through her lance and damaged her. Her body stiffened before getting blown back.

Cecilia rolled on the ground twice from two attacks from the lightning dragon before getting back on her feet in a defensive posture. “Lixue, don’t clash head-on with the lightning dragon. Let’s go quickly. Right now, the most important thing is to reach Babylon Labs, not defeat this lightning dragon.”

Remembering their mission, she stopped Cheng Lixue from using the 10th Divine Key, Water’s Edge, to attack the lightning dragon.

“Yes, Squad Leader!” Cheng Lixue put away her sword and quickly ran towards Babylon Labs. Cecilia and Shigure Kira followed closely, leaving the lightning dragon alone.

Chen Heng now understood why the lightning dragon did not engage the three Valkyries in close combat. These three were swift and had superb physiques. Furthermore, they had Schicksal’s propulsion systems, which allowed them to move faster. They avoided fighting the lightning dragon and kept fleeing.
