May All the Beauty Be Blessed - Honkai Star Rail x Male Reader Fanfiction

Prologue Chapter 3: Welcome Aboard

~ Astral Express, Parlor Car ~

"An Emanator of Beauty!" March exclaimed in astonishment.

Y/N nodded in confirmation, ensuring that the pink-haired girl had heard correctly.

"So, if you're an Emanator, does that mean you possess great power?" March asks the knight.

"I suppose you can say that." Y/N replied, opting not to boast about his abilities.

"Well, Emanators are Pathstriders who have gained permission from the Aeon they align with to harness the power of that specific path." Welt chimed in to provide March with more information.

"And when you mentioned being part of the Knights of Beauty, is that one of the factions within your path?" The pink-haired girl continued her line of questioning. With each query, she inadvertently drew closer to Y/N, encircling him while bombarding him with questions.

"Are there other factions?"

"Have you met your Aeon?"

"What do they look like?"

A bead of sweat formed on Y/N's forehead, thanks to the enthusiastic young girl's questioning.

"March..." Himeko uttered in a stern tone directed at the pink-clad girl.

"Could you please give Sir Y/N some room? He's just recovered from being out in space," Himeko requested of March.

"Ehe~ Sorry about that." She said to Y/N and Himeko, returning his personal space to him.

"It's fine; I find her curiosity rather charming. Also, please, no need for 'Sir'; call me Y/N. And may I know your name, Miss...?" The man in black armor requested, trailing off as he awaited the redhead's introduction.

"Oh, I'm Himeko, and please feel free to address me in the same manner." She reciprocated the courtesy.

"Before we proceed, it's only fair we introduce ourselves to you." Dan Heng suggested. The other three individuals who hadn't yet introduced themselves to Y/N nodded in agreement.

~ After A Brief Introduction, Y/N's P.O.V ~

Once all the other members had provided brief introductions and I had familiarized myself with their names, we gathered on one of the couches, anticipating a lengthy conversation about me. To create a more relaxed atmosphere for our discussion, we asked Pom-Pom to bring us snacks and drinks.

While we waited for Pom-Pom to return, our conversation primarily revolved around learning about the Nameless, the Aeon Akivili, and the Astral Express.

Upon the return of the train conductor with a cart laden with an assortment of snacks and beverages tailored to each member's preferences, we all retrieved our respective plates and drinks. The conversation gradually shifted its focus towards me.

"So, where should I begin?" I chuckled, sensing that this was beginning to feel like an interrogation.

March raised her hand as if we were in a classroom, signaling her desire to get my attention.

"How about you tell us about the Knights of Beauty, Y/N?" She suggested, and I responded with a nod.

"The Knights of Beauty are one of the factions that follows the Aeon of Beauty, Idrila. We ride our mounts and chant throughout the galaxy their name and ideology. We also follow a ruleset called the Chivalry Code that hones our body to be the best it can be to worship Idrila." I explained as briefly as I could.
