Chevalier Battlesuit

The setting sun faded as the moon took its place to glimmer the lands

The sound became absent as the Honkai Beasts in Lupus City were nowhere to be found with the north side of the city's wall destroyed

This area became abandoned by humans and monsters, leaving behind remnants of destruction caused by Honkai

In a house south of Lupus City, a groan was heard and a pair of eyes opened

The deadbeat expression on Uesugi's face yawned before he got up and stretched

*Growl*

His stomach called for hunger. Before he went out, he took a shower and changed clothes out of his torn outfit

Walking outside uninhibited, he strolled down the streets, staring at a few intact buildings as the majority were destroyed in the waking

He realized that the supermarkets may have been devastated by the Honkai Beasts.

Since there were no living humans in the city, he went into each house, searching for canned foods and drinks

With the presence of Honkai Energy, electricity can be disrupted so he didn't count on the fridges working

While he couldn't obtain his beloved rice, Uesugi opened the tuna cans and grabbed some hard biscuits, stacking them on top of each other

Taking big bites, he relished in its taste as he felt his appetite being appeased

Wiping his mouth, he went back to the house he slept in

Before he set out, Uesugi was eager to receive his rewards.

Mission 2 completed, you will now receive option 1 and 3 rewards. Mission grading is Rank-A

'Not bad kiddo, you still have more to experience but your beginning will lay your foundation to overcome it. Be strong'

Smiling at the comment, he got to the real stuff.

Accept your rewards: Yes/Yes

Wondering why there were two yeses, he pondered before pressing simultaneously on both yes

He felt the increase in stats rising. While he gained overwhelming powers, it was contained in his body, filled to bring with him power with his muscles becoming more refined

His mental powers became more distinct, if before he could sense 20m away from him, now it's 30m

Would you like to activate the Talent Awakening Chance LvL 10?

The system prompt showed him a choice. While he was interested as a gacha player, he decided to hold onto it before receiving his option 3 rewards

Pressing no, he felt another wave of strengthening of stats.

While the increase will be insignificant at later stages, he was satisfied with the increases given to him

Suddenly, he felt lightheaded and realized he was forced to teleport into his mental space again

*****

"Overseer, we have received footage of what happened in Lupus City". A Valkyrie in office work clothes bowed as she put the USB on the table

Nodding indifferently, Otto Apocalypse was uninterested in the events. He knew that the city was doomed and nothing special would catch his attention

Noticing his expression, the Valkyrie smiled confidently, "I promise this will excite you as a new Chevalier with potential similar to Durandel-Sama has appeared"

This time, a shocked expression appeared on his face.

One had to know that Durandel had the potential to become the strongest S-Rank Valkyrie like Cecilia Schariac. While she is still young, she became the youngest A-Rank Valkyrie in history

Interested in the new seed, he ordered the Valkyrie to activate the footage as a big screen popped up, showing the battles of Lupus City

Surprisingly, throughout the video, there were no signs of the two 'Valkyries' that made contact with Uesugi Shuu

The footage started right after Uesugi gained enlightenment. His battle against the Honkai Beasts and zombies was shown in low-quality

This is because the camera was more specialized for secrecy and its small size. Otherwise, Uesugi would have detected it and destroyed it for privacy

'I have never heard of him before. He's not a part of the 3 royal houses in Schicksal nor is he a member of Anti-Entropy'.

As an overseer, Otto has eyes over the world, and yet he has never seen someone with so much potential

'His age is around 10 and he doesn't look like a rejuvenated person.' Otto analyzed Uesugi's characteristics and determined only recently he has gotten stronger

'There are only two possibilities, one is that he gained the inheritance of the Previous Era which is unlikely since that sort of strength does not account for his mental state

The thought process was very thorough, Otto knew the arrogance of young people and he didn't see it in Uesugi's eyes

'The second possibility is awakening his stigmata. However, he has CAS-X Saints equipped and Lightning Soul, meaning he may have connections with Shicksal, it would be disappointing if its artificial stigmata'

While none of his hypotheses were close to the truth, they were logical. Otto decided to uncover the truth after recruiting Uesugi into Shicksal

"Make contact with him and send me his conditions if asked. Also find out his origins and pass them to me". Ordering the Valkyrie calmly, he returned to face the open windows

Outside, Schicksal headquarters was shown. Personnel were running the logistics while Valkyries were chatting and hurrying to their positions, its size was close to a small city and it contained protective measures similar to a fortress.

Despite the strength he holds, Otto Apocalypse remained expressionless as he glanced at a photo frame on his desk

A young girl with white hair and braided hair was smiling vibrantly, holding onto the hands of a young boy with long yellow hair who stumbled on his feet

The frame looked old as the picture contained scratches on it

Otto smiled lightly as he walked towards it and grabbed it, brushing off the dust on its frame

Murmuring, he gently said, "Soon, Kallen, I'll be there for you"

Placing it down, he walked entered a hidden basement that led him underground, leaving behind an empty office

While they were gathering information on Uesugi, who was currently in his mental space with his mouth agape

The blank figure was out of his meditative state and was standing before him

It still carried his gauntlets and Katana that was on its waist. A panel appeared beside the figures, head, body, arms, and leg

New equipment assigned, Battlesuit. Choose the design of your battlesuit and it's function. An evaluation will be conducted to avoid its capabilities surpassing the reward limit

The monotonous sound in Uesugi's mind felt like the calling of God's voice.

While he believed his next equipment would be a Battlesuit, he never would have thought he could design it

Snapping out of his reverie, he took a look at the panels next to the blank figure

Listed Functions:

Time Slow

Elemental/Physical Damage Amplification

Paralysis

Weapon Creation

Statistics Amplification

While there were more, the aforementioned functions excited him the most

Tapping on Elemental Damage Amplification, Time Slow, and Weapon Creation, he realized that was the limit.

The next step was to design his Battlesuit. While adding armor would increase his non-existent defense, it would also decrease his speed and agility if it's too bulky

Uesugi Shuu thought about Raiden Mei's Crimson Impulse that she first wore as a Valkyrie.

It's designed as "Tachi Specialised Assault Armour", maximizing range attacks for quick and close combat capabilities.

While it is designed for blade users, Uesugi can adjust the Battlesuit for a more balanced armor suited for fist-fighting

Another important part to add would be an Honkai Energy Reactor connected to a propeller

This would make Weapon Creation usable as an emission of Honkai energy to create weapons as it requires higher amounts of Honkai Energy to function

In the game, Kiana Kaslana's White Comet Battlesuit had a burst mode that enhanced combat prowess and allowed her to extend her attack range

The design is cat-like as she materializes cat limbs to attack, this is weapon creation.

Despite being a close Combat fanatic, Uesugi has not reached a level where he can ignore distance in battle

He can sense projectiles but if the enemy is too far and has allies protecting him/her, then he'd be helpless against them

Weapon Creation can be in any form, Uesugi can create a sword or rock and fling it toward the enemy

Thinking about the scenario, he nodded in happiness before inputting it into the Battlesuit

After tapping and fiddling with the Battlesuit design and function, its final changes were shown

A dark red Battlesuit, similar to crimson impulse and covered more skin. There is a helmet that acts as a visor to protect his head and guard his identity

On his back, a Honkai Energy Reactor was intact and had lines around the armor to allow Honkai energy to flow smoothly

There is also a pair of wings that allows flight when he adds more Honkai Energy. While it is not flexible, it has a higher constant speed than running

"This... Is my Battlesuit, my companion, and my trust" Uesugi said smugly before he tapped on "Accept" on the blue screen

His vision turned black for an instant before his spirit materialized into a laboratory filled with mechanical components

The scene of a model of the Battlesuit he created was being built at a fast pace.

*Clang* *Bang*

In an instant, his armor was ready to go.

Again, his vision blanked as he teleported back into his mental space

It was then that he witnessed true art. The blank figure was covered in the new battlesuit, highlighting an oppressing aura that intimidates its foes

Sparkles appeared in Uesugi's eyes as he wanted to exit his mental space to try it on

It was then that the system reminded

Would you like to accept the Rebirth Liquid now?

The prompt stopped him in his tracks as he stood and paused.

Thinking about the pros and cons, he realized that he needed to adjust to his current strength and thought that the liquid was of no use to him

A eureka moment appeared as he quickly asked the system, "Can I allow others to use the Rebirth Liquid".

A pause in the air stayed for seconds, it caused the expectant Uesugi to look disappointed when the reply came

"Yes, you may allow others to use it", the reply was short and on point but it excited Uesugi

If the protagonist can become stronger, the stress on his back will be relieved

Besides, they really needed it since if Herrscher's became stronger then they were in the game. The little power up from Uesugi won't be enough.

Bowing in front of nothing, he quickly exited the space and was ready to leave the city after testing the Battlesuit capabilities
