Honkai Impact 3rd: Catching the Herrscher of Sentience at the Start

However, Fu Shi's strength was far beyond what his body could withstand. Fu Lin staggered back dozens of steps before barely managing to absorb the blow.

But Fu Shi's next strike followed immediately. With no time to rest, Fu Lin suppressed the trembling in his hands, sidestepped to avoid the attack, and seized the moment while Fu Shi was retracting her spear. Gathering all his strength, he swung Twilight toward her abdomen.

"Another bad premonition!" Feeling a chill run down her spine, Fu Shi realized it was too late to summon a weapon to block. She swiftly turned her body into a state of consciousness, narrowly avoiding the strike.

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

But in the next second, Fu Shi's figure vanished before their eyes, followed by a loud explosion from the neighboring mountain.

"Pfft! What a strange weapon. It actually deals true damage, even bypassing my spiritual form," Fu Shi spat out a mouthful of blood, her face flushed as she clutched her abdomen. Feeling a bit frustrated, she muttered, "If I had known, I wouldn't have shifted into an spiritual form. At least I wouldn't have been sent flying so far…"

Meanwhile, Twilight had already reverted to ring form on Fu Lin's index finger after unleashing a strike. Exhausted, Fu Lin sat cross-legged on the ground, looking at the airborne Fu Shi with a stunned expression and said "I don't think I hit that hard… Wait, it felt like Fu Shi became feather-light the moment I made contact…"

"Do you think Fu Shi's okay…"

Wutong, who had been watching Fu Shi soar through the air, stood frozen in place and murmured, "Brother-in-law is so strong… Even Master isn't his match…"

Meanwhile, Sirin, her eyes sparkling, excitedly exclaimed, "Big Brother is amazing! He sent the Herrscher of Sentience flying with just one strike!"

In the consciousness space, Kiana saw Sirin acting like a total brother fanatic and couldn't help but retort, "His strength is at best slightly above that of a B-rank Valkyrie. What's strong is the weapon he's wielding."

Sirin refuted, "But that weapon is Big Brother's, so it's still Big Brother who's strong!"

Kiana rubbed her forehead and sighed. "Fine, whatever makes you happy."

Her gaze then shifted to the ring on Fu Lin's index finger, and she muttered, "What a terrifying weapon… It actually managed to humble the Herrscher of Sentience. Thankfully, Sirin's brother isn't overwhelmingly strong… Otherwise…"

Fu Lin, looking at the returning Fu Shi, asked with concern, "Are you okay? Does your stomach hurt? Do you need me to rub it for you?"

Fu Shi, now beside him, endured the pain in her abdomen, pretending to be indifferent. She said, "I'm the great Lady Herrscher of Sentience. Do you think your little strength can hurt me? What a joke!"

Hearing Fu Lin's latter question, she quickly shifted her tone. "It doesn't hurt much, but my stomach does feel a little uncomfortable…"

"I was just being polite… Did you really take it seriously?" Fu Lin watched Fu Shi lie on the scabbard, legs dangling as she exposed her flawless, tender abdomen, waiting for a massage.

"Hmph~ You said it, so you have to follow through!" Fu Shi puffed out her cheeks, feeling exasperated enough to want to pry open Fu Lin's wooden brain to see what was inside. Why wouldn't he take a hint when given a chance?

"...Fine, today I'll show you my exclusive massage technique. I guarantee it'll feel heavenly!" Fu Lin rolled up his sleeves and began massaging Fu Shi's stomach, his expression unusually serious.

"Mm-hmm~ Not bad~ Now… Ah~ Rub my shoulders, ah~ and maybe pound my back too. Ah~ So comfortable…" Fu Shi's face flushed as she enjoyed the pleasure radiating from her stomach, soft moans escaping her lips.

"How's that? Pretty good skills, right?" Fu Lin, seeing Fu Shi so satisfied, asked proudly.

Sirin, watching Fu Shi revel in the treatment, puffed her cheeks and muttered, "...Shameless."

Meanwhile, in Kiana's mind, her face turned beet red as she imagined Fu Lin massaging her. As the scene in her mind progressed, it unlocked more and more scenarios.

She envisioned herself lying powerless and flushed on the bed while Fu Lin succumbed to his primal urges…

Then came a series of advances, culminating in unspeakable activities (1,000 words omitted).

The kitchen, the bathroom, the sofa… Hehehehe~

'Mm-hmm~' Kiana touched her nose and, noticing the red liquid on her fingers, murmured, "A bit too heated… Where is Fu Lin? It's not ideal to keep handling things myself."

Sirin, sensing something, called out to Kiana in the consciousness space, "Are you fantasizing about your Fu Lin again?"

Kiana, startled by Sirin's voice, immediately stopped what she was doing, coughed dryly, and said, "Of course not. I'm just busy watching my drama~"

Sirin scratched her head and replied, "Okay, maybe I sensed it wrong…"

With Sirin interrupting, Kiana lost her enthusiasm. After tidying up, she sat cross-legged in the consciousness space, watching Fu Lin and Fu Shi outside with disinterest.

Then, she said slowly, "Sirin, tomorrow we're heading to the Schicksal headquarters to meet Otto."
