Book 6: Chapter 28:1: Chen Heng: I Also Want a Divine Key! Part 1

“Why do we have to eat first?”

“Let’s have a meal. Life can be so busy without any fun. Even though my place is close, Senior Sister came to pick me up after all. And before you decline, note that our master cooked personally today. Isn’t that tempting?”

In just that brief time, Chen Heng had already spotted Fantasy Sea Villas.

As previously mentioned, Fantasy Sea Villas was close to Vast Sea City First High School.

“Alright, then. Have you considered pursuing further studies at St. Freya Academy for college?”

“Huh? Hold on, isn’t St. Freya Academy an all-girls school? Why would I, a guy, go there?”

“Oh? There’s something you’re not aware of?”

“...So that’s the case. St. Freya Academy is keeping up with the times by admitting ability users. They even transformed the outer girls’ school into a co-ed institution. Once this news breaks, many boys will scramble for a spot, even if it’s just the outer school.

“Just so you know, Senior Sister, I don’t know everything. Don’t misunderstand what I mean. While there’s some stuff I genuinely don’t know, there’s other stuff I just don’t want to know.”

Chen Heng never wanted to activate the Absolute Precognition in this world because it would simply be too boring. Anyway, no one could harm him here.

As for Luo Li, he worried even less. With the help of the Primal Chaos Bell and the emergency measures of the Dimension Administrators Association, practically no one could harm her.

As for Mo Qingtong? Chen Heng had already glimpsed her future. She would face no danger in the coming days. Furthermore, Chen Heng planned to send her an invitation letter either in the following days or that very night.

Having assessed everything, Chen Heng was certain that no significant person or event to him was under any threat. Thus, he had no reason to activate the Absolute Precognition.

Besides, there was the world consciousness. Given that they knew each other, even if it didn’t directly intervene, it should at least give him a heads-up.

After all, a teacher for a day was like a father for life.

“Master, should we let Junior Brother try my Water’s Edge?” Listening to their conversation, Cheng Lixue offered to let her junior brother try her sword. Of course, she wouldn’t give it away; after all, her master had gifted it to her.

Chen Heng waved his hand dismissively. “There’s no need, Senior Sister.”

“Lixue, don’t mind him. He’s just curious. Even if he had a Divine Key, he’d probably just let it gather dust in the storeroom. He has plenty of treasures already.”

“Master, why wouldn’t I use a Divine Key? Something called a Divine Key sounds very cool.” Chen Heng tried rebutting.

“You only think it is cool. Well, if you really want one, try capturing a Herrscher.”

“A Herrscher? Hmm...which Herrscher should I catch?”

“How about the Herrscher of Stars? That aligns with one of your abilities.”

Cheng Lixue looked on in amazement as the two discussed catching a Herrscher with such seriousness.

Chen Heng gave a disdainful smirk. “No, not interested.”

“What about the Herrscher of Reason? Wait, no. The Herrscher of Reason is one of us.”

“The Herrscher of Reason? Welt?”

“No, Junior Brother. The Herrscher of Reason is a different person now. Now, it’s a little girl named Bronya. Furthermore, I should remind you that each full-fledged Herrscher is as powerful as a Soul Separation Realm cultivator. The best among them can rival those in the Mind Dividing Realm. Their most challenging aspect is their ability to control specific laws. If used properly, their offensive power is terrifying.”

[TL Note: Here is Bronya’s profile: /wiki/Bronya_Zaychik.]

Cheng Lixue eyed her junior brother, sensing his overconfidence, so she explained just how strong a Herrscher was.

“Are Herrschers really that powerful? Then why is Sirin still so weak? She has five Herrscher Cores, yet she keeps getting beaten.”

“...” Cheng Lixue remembered Sirin. On the surface, Sirin appeared to be an ordinary beautiful student at St. Freya Academy’s outer school. However, Cheng Lixue, who had visited the academy several times, knew she was far from ordinary. She possessed five Herrscher Cores; this treatment was like she was the beloved daughter of the Honkai God.
