1st Herrscher

                                    

                                          
"What have you managed to find Y/N?" Sirin didn't know why her saviour and knight decided to keep the insect alive after he had basically ripped her to shreds. What could that pathetic bug offer them that they couldn't achieve on their own? She was just a bug, and like the rest of her kind, they would all be squashed beneath her and her knight's heel
"A few things my queen." The loyal knight responded as he once more dropped to his knee with his head bowed. She couldn't understand why he continued to do so even after she had told him multiple times to do so "Her tongue loosened once she lost a few fingers and toes"
Sirin shivered slightly though not at what her knight said but more how he said it, that conversational tone as if they were speaking of the weather rather than torture. She didn't care what happened to the human, not one bit, but she cared for her knight and seeing his uncaring nature, a nature that contrasted vastly with the kind and caring one he used to have threw her off
"To her knowledge, the rest of her squad should be deployed, This includes 2 more Valkyries and potentially a Knight, but this isn't the most important information I managed to gather." her knight started "Apparently she is a double agent in Schicksal, actually part of another organisation known as Anti-Entropy who stand as opposition to Schicksal."
"Realy? Why would the bug be here then?" Sirin couldn't find a reason that made sense to her, though maybe she just lacked the ability to understand humans. This Anti-Entropy could be a problem, especially if they were anything like Schicksal
"To find you, my queen."
"Huh?"
"They wish to recruit you to the side of humanity, just as their Soveniger, the Herrscher of Reason, joined and leads them now." Sirin felt a deep anger bloom in her chest. These bugs thought they could have her join humanity after all they had done to her! To have one of her goddess champions turn against her and hope to have her do the same! How utterly infuriating!
"My queen, it seems we have a messenger." At first, Sirin didn't understand what her loyal knight meant, but then she noticed the small Honkai Beast float up to her, whispering something in her ear about a gift for her
"Y/N, continue to observe this place. It seems that our goddess wants me to go somewhere." Her knight bowed his head further before rising from the ground and marching off, his steps too silent to be heard, walking deeper into the shadows before stopping in the corner and leaning against the wall, only visible due to his glowing yellow golden eyes and her enhanced eyesight
--------------------------------------------
'These humans are really dumb.' Y/N thought as he watched the humans talk about his queen's spatial rift, how they would find her through the use of the Divine Key and how they had no time for backup
They didn't even bother to check if anyone was listening in on them! They just went straight ahead and revealed all their plans while he just stood in the shadows and listened, learning all he needed to know
Turns out that little girl wasn't actually a child, his prisoner having informed him that she was actually something like 40 years old just with stunted growth. His prisoner really had been a full source of information. After he broke her she no longer withheld any information, giving him everything he asked without a moment of hesitation so as to avoid punishment, though said punishment was just a watered-down version of what he went through for most of his life until recently
Sadly he couldn't do anything to inform his queen of their attempt to hunt her down so he resorted to doing a few more things here while he could. Walking silently through the passages he arrived at the control room of the tower where some Schicksal personnel were running around, though none of them were really important
He took his time with killing them all, waiting for them to leave or pulling them into the shadows. He was in no rush as the Honlkai beasts outside were exterminated by the Valkyries and drones so he would use these men and woman as his entertainment till his queen got back
That was until he killed them all and found himself sitting alone in the blood-stained room flipping a coin he had found on one of the scientists in boredom, leaning back in his chair as he watched the Honkai Beasts being exterminated by strangely happy robots
"*Sigh* Those beasts are so useless, unworthy of serving our queen." he flipped the coin a few more times before he felt a sudden spike in Honkai Energy, one that preceded anything he had felt before. Using his senses he moved the cameras to face the direction he felt the spike and felt a wave of anxiety
There, alongside his queen, stood a massive Honkai beast larger than any of the others that were attacking the tower. Its form was that of a dragon with a black underbelly and white armour plates, blue lines running along its body
'Has my queen deemed to replace me?' he questioned himself 'Has she grown tired of having a half-dragoin and instead created a true dragon?' The anxiety in his chest rose 'Am I not good enough?'
These thoughts plagued his mind till he was no longer able to focus on the outside world 'Am I useless?' he was losing his sense of touch 'Do I no longer please her?' His heartbeat increased 'Am I-'
*RARG!*
The roar broke Y/N from his thoughts and turned his attention back to the camera as the dragon's belly was ripped open and came the traitor, the 1st Herrscher before he casually pushed the dragon down and turned his weapons to Y/Ns queen, creating an entire army to battle the Champion of God
"Champion of God versus Champion of Humanity and his army... let's make that fair." he could think over his potential replacement later. For now, his queen was being threatened and he would do what he had done to all those who had threatened her before
He had no time to waste walking through the facility to the exit. He had no time to be stealthy either. So he did the logical thing... and launched himself through the titanium wall, his scaled skin providing the only protection he needed as he shot through wall after wall, his form sliding through metal like a bullet through paper
Those outside the facility heard the roar of ripping metal and electrical explosions moments before a superheated missile broke through the main tower body, its speed faster than what they had seen before
Sadly it wasn't fast enough to stop the Silver Bullet that came crashing down on the earth, the explosion it caused pushing the heated object off its course and crashing into a nearby mountain blowing a large chunk out of existence
"No..." Y/N felt like every bone in his body had been broken, even his scales, something that had proved near impenetrable up to now had been cracked under the pressure, managing to save him from death  but not from pain, but as the saying goes, there ain't no rest for the wicked, and that proved true as he watched in horror as his queen was almost swallowed up by a black hole "NO!"
Once more a superheated object took to the skies, the mountain it launched from reduced to rubble under its launch as it zoomed through the air at speeds faster than before, the very air around it parting with a sonic boom
Its second collision was far more destructive than the first, though it was nothing compared to the Silver Bullet it was still nothing to scoff at, the ground around its collision point being thrown into the air and releasing a large amount of heat that nearly cooked the 1st Herrscher alive
Y/N dashed out of the blast radius faster than the 1st could anticipate delivering a strong punch to the man's face, shattering his nose, before pulling back and delivering a devastating kick to the side that definitely caused a rib fracture
In the same moment as the 1st hit the ground, Y/N reached forward and grabbed the Divine Key that remained floating in the air and exerted all his power into crushing the weapon, which turned out to be easier than expected, the outer layer caving in quickly resulting in the quasi black hole collapsing in on itself
It was at this moment that Y/Ns replacement decided to show up and rescue their queen from the fall before trying to fly away without Y/N "Oh no you don't!" He may not understand his queen's wishes or reasoning but he would be damned if he left her protection in the hands of a mindless beast who was defeated so easily
So he hitched a ride on its back besides his queen
