Ch-11 < Recovered and venture to honkai again >

Veldanava was standing at the edge of the ruins, his face a mix of frustration and amusement.

He glared at Kevin, who was casually inspecting the wreckage of what had once been a pristine area of Veldanava's domain.

The destruction was evident; entire sections of the once-majestic landscape were now nothing more than scorched earth and rubble.

"You realize you've destroyed a significant part of my home, don't you?" Veldanava's voice was sharp, but there was an underlying tone of familiarity, like a parent scolding a child for the umpteenth time.

Kevin simply shrugged, unfazed by the scolding. "Just recreate it. You have the power, after all," he replied nonchalantly, as if the destruction of such a vast area was a minor inconvenience.

Veldanava rolled his eyes, exasperation clear in his expression. "Damn atheist, have some self-consciousness, will you?" he muttered, more to himself than to Kevin.

In the distance, Velzard and Velgrynd watched the exchange with barely concealed smiles.

The bickering between Veldanava and Kevin had always been a source of amusement for them, a dynamic that, despite its intensity, was rooted in mutual respect and understanding. Seeing them argue like this brought a sense of normalcy and comfort to the two True Dragons.

Two days later, Kevin sat in a meditative position, deep within the bowels of Veldanava's realm.

The system had been working to absorb the Yin energy from his body, a process that had taken time but was finally complete.

The lingering traces of Yin energy were gone, leaving only the potent Yang energy coursing through his veins.

The shift had not only strengthened Kevin but also provided him with deeper insights into the Yin-Yang concept, a balance that was now more crucial to his power than ever before.

**System Notice:**

*All authorities have fully recovered. However, holding three cores has become a burden. The Authority of the Abyss is incomplete.*

Kevin's eyes snapped open at the notification, a frown tugging at the corners of his mouth.

"Then what can I do with three cores, and why has the Abyss Core become my primary, while the other two are secondary?" Kevin asked, his voice laced with curiosity and concern.

*The Abyss Core was the inheritance of the system. It has more potential than both the End and Finality cores.*

Kevin leaned back, his mind racing with possibilities. "Why is the Abyss Core special?" he asked, probing for more information.

*The Abyss Core possesses the unique ability to combine two opposite elements effortlessly. It can also utilize both Imaginary Energy and Real Energy.* system explained.

Kevin's eyes widened slightly at the revelation. "So, it's like I'm a Herrscher born from both the Imaginary Tree and the Sea of Quanta, capable of utilizing both authorities?" he clarified, the implications of such power dawning on him.

*Yes, Host.* the system Affirmated.

Kevin nodded slowly, absorbing the information. "So, what's the requirement?"

*Host needs to venture into the Sea of Quanta and absorb energy from its deepest regions.* system direct.

Kevin froze, a sense of foreboding settling in his chest. "Why would I go there? The Outer Gods will immediately sense my presence and come after me."

*Host, they will not interfere. The world we are going to is far beyond their authority. Since they directly interfered with your world, they were hit by severe karma and cannot interfere in world laws for some time.* system said.

"Are you sure you are not fooling me". Kevin was not convinced because of last time.

"Host my life is bounded to you. I'm will do everything to make you powerfull". The system said which shocks Kevin. He always that that his system is semi sentient.

Kevin let out a long sigh, running a hand through his hair. "So, which timeline are we going to?"

*That would be the original canon timeline of Honkai Impact 3.*

Kevin paused, deep in thought. The weight of what he was about to undertake settled heavily on his shoulders. "And what's the plan?" he finally asked, needing to know every detail before he committed.

*Host, you will go to the border of the Honkai Verse and use the Authority of Legion and Origin to construct a parallel existence, which you will control using the system and karmic threads.*

Kevin considered the plan, his mind calculating the risks and benefits.

After a moment, he nodded and stood, making his way to where Velzard and Velgrynd were waiting.

The two True Dragons looked up as he approached, sensing the seriousness in his demeanor.

"I need to venture into my world," Kevin began, his voice calm but firm. "There are things I must do to heal my lovers."

Velzard and Velgrynd exchanged a glance before nodding in understanding. They had known this moment would come, that Kevin would eventually have to return to his world.

Velgrynd spoke first, her voice soft with concern. "How long will you be gone?"

"It will take a minimum of 50 years, but it could be as long," Kevin replied. The system said told him that the time flows differently there.

The True Dragons nodded again, their expressions showing no sign of worry.

For beings as ancient and powerful as them, 50 years was but a blink of an eye.

Velgrynd stepped forward and placed a hand on Kevin's shoulder, her gaze steady. "We'll wait for you. Just come back safe."

Kevin smiled at them, the warmth in their eyes giving him strength. He leaned in and kissed them both, a gesture of affection and reassurance.

Then, with a deep breath, he activated his system, feeling the familiar pull of dimensional travel as he was transported to the Honkai Verse, specifically to the main timeline of Honkai Impact 3.

The transition was smooth, the fabric of reality bending and twisting as Kevin crossed the boundaries between worlds. He arrived at the edge of the Honkai Verse, the vast expanse of the universe stretching out before him.

Upon arriving, Kevin created a clone of himself, ensuring it was a perfect carbon copy, possessing 20% of his strength.

Using the system's abilities, Kevin then concealed his soul signature from the Outer Gods, effectively masking his presence.

To maintain control, he connected the clone to himself via karmic strings, allowing him to effortlessly manipulate the body as needed.
