Fly Me 2 The Moon (Honkai Impact 3rd)

First Impressions

The Honkai is a cosmic threat that grows alongside civilization.

Natural disasters, diseases, a fucking zombie plague, literal extradimensional monsters...and then we have the Herrschers.

Oh boy, the Herrschers.

Aside from the fact that I crave a Hershey's chocolate bar every time I hear the name, they're more or less Finality's version of a fucking raid boss. But the raid boss is so stupidly overpowered that in most cases the only option is to bite the pillow as it goes in dry.

On the other hand, almost all Herrschers are extremely attractive women that I would 100% simp for with no shame.

Shout out to all of my mentally unstable demi-god girls. Gotta be one of my favorite genders.

So, you may be wondering why the hell I'm going towards the raid boss that will most definitely bend me over and use no lube?

First, it's because MOTH is most definitely going to be after the Herrscher too. Due to how valuable Mei is to them, they probably already have her in their custody. I doubt they'd really just send one agent to pick her up in the middle of an eruption.

I heard the sound of the air being sliced, and waited a split second before I dodged the attack from the Jun-Ninja Honkai Zombie. I felt that new mysterious power surge within me, and it pulsed out, the world turning blue, and the zombie and everything around us slowing to a crawl.

Time Fracture.

I could fucking Time Fracture! And dear God do I love how useful this Bayonetta bullshit is.

I pulled on my new power to engulf my bat with blue flames and swung. The impact shook through my arms in a way that made my brain release the good chemicals, cause mmmmmm that was so satisfying. Seeing the dumb bitch that thought she could swing on me get homerun'd into a Homu Burger, and seeing the glass shatter and sheer destruction my swing caused in slow-motion was the icing on the cake.

Anyway, second and final reason: I might actually have a chance at taking on the Herrscher.

Truth be told, I wasn't sure how to save the world. We were more or less already at the final nail in the coffin, in less than a decade the world is going to end. Herrscher of The End destroyed the surface of the Earth, and the Samsara begins once again.

...Then I have endure fifty-thousands years of constant bullshit and strife only to get dogged on at the fucking moon by a Tuna with the power of God and Anime on her side.

Though I am rooting for my favorite descendant...

Truth be told once again, I didn't care about saving the world...

My mind took me back to the aftermath of the 12th Herrscher. My talk with Hua after everything was said and done, I had claimed myself to be the most terrible person to have ever lived because I was the so-called "hero" everyone looked to for salvation, yet I didn't truly care about humanity.

I was a selfish person trying to be something I wasn't because everyone's expectations were constantly being thrust upon me. And above all else, I didn't want to disappoint Mei. There are no words in the human lexicon that can accurately describe how much I wanted to punch that version of me in the mouth. To be fair, I have hindsight... but the point stands!

I absolutely refuse to end up as some emotionless husk of myself. God's sake, and to hell with GGZ's counterpart as well, that bastard's nothing but an off-brand bootleg version of Heero from Gundam Wing! Mei deserved better than that, Su deserved, everyone deserved better!

This time I was going to be honest with myself. I'm not here to be a hero, and I'm not going to fix the world, I just want something better for the people I care about. And the first step is to put an end to this current mess.

I was brought out of my thoughts as the building a dozen blocks down had exploded into rubble as a massive honkai beast barreled through the structure. The color green was the first thing I noticed. Black and green scales covered its body, fused with gold adornments. Green and black lightning arced across its form.

Its glowing slited, amber snake eyes locked with mine.

And it let out a roar so powerful that my ears rang. It sounded like a flashbang had gone off not even a few feet away from me. And every window around us had shattered into a million pieces.

The Judgement Class Honkai Beast, Śes̩a.

Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck...

Suddenly, a long length of sturdy looking chain landed right next to me seemingly out of nowhere.

I stared at the chains, then back to the giant snake monster.

Intrusive thoughts had won.

I picked up the chain and pulled on the mysterious power within me, covering the chains in blue flames.

I walked towards the massive snake monster like my pronouns were I'm/Him.

A cruel smirk made its way onto my face. "Don't worry, I'll be gentle."

That was a lie.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Elysia tried not to frown as she followed the path of dead honkai beasts and zombies, cute girls like her shouldn't frown lest their pretty faces end up with wrinkles. That'd be a tragedy!

But still, in all of the honkai incidents, up to and including the Second Eruption, she had never seen something like this before. Possibly hundreds of honkai zombies and beasts just dead. It was obviously done by someone else, a third party separate from MOTH, but if it wasn't for the, shockingly, many survivors she discovered following the trail of bodies, she would've had no idea who or what had done all this.

The person responsible for this was said to be a school boy with white hair and blue eyes, and strangely enough, they said that blue flames followed him wherever he went.

It was a little disappointing that the heroic individual going around slaying zombies and honkai beast wasn't a cute heroine, but beggars can't be choosers.

Well then, she at least hoped he was a cute boy.

Suddenly, the sound of rumbling entered her ears. Something was approaching her position, and very fast.

Her eyes widened as the building in front of her practically exploded as a giant snake honkai beast crashed through, screaming its head off in obvious agony.

Elysia recognized it the moment she saw it, MOTH had named it Śes̩a. It was the honkai beast born with the coming of the Third Herrscher, it was reported and even photographed that it was dead! But beyond that, she noticed the blue flaming chains wrapped around the beast.

And atop its head, she spied the silhouette of a male figure. He held chains wrapped around his left arm, and what looked like a baseball bat in his right.

"Left! I said left!" She heard the boy yelled in frustration as the Śes̩a proceeded to go right instead. "Your other left, dumbass! Oh for fuck's sake!"

The boy raised up his bat and swung it down. A loud bang echoed throughout the area as the Śes̩a's head practically hit the ground with enough force to shatter the asphalt, silencing its screaming.

"If only they had a driver's manual for this damn thing, I could totally pick up chicks riding a honkai beast." The boy jumped off the head, he crossed his arms and let out a long sigh. "Great, now I gotta wait for this damn thing to factory reset."

Elysia's jaw dropped at the... insanity she had just witnessed.

But now she had a clear look at the one that had been saving lives and stacking bodies.

Snow-white hair, beautiful sky-blue eyes, and a handsome face. He was tall and wore a bloodied school uniform. From what she could tell, it was one of the local schools in the city. But most prominent of all was the jagged scar around his neck and the blue flames that clung onto his body, which gave him an almost ethereal quality.

Okay, expectations far exceeded. He was a very very cute boy~

The boy turned his attention to her, and gave a rather smug smirk. "Sweetheart, I'm adorable."

Oh my, she said out loud, didn't she?
