Anime chat group , you let me come only after the world is destroyed?

After learning the Halloween Queen's location from Takumi, Algol dashed off.

If Takumi hadn't told her, she might never have known someone had come. She likely wouldn't have stepped outside, possibly continuing her shut-in lifestyle.

If Takumi hadn't returned, and no one else was home, she might have even starved. Ridiculous. Takumi mentally cursed whoever had been a bad influence on Algol. He strongly condemned it—someone had clearly spoiled her.

After some inner complaints, Takumi turned his attention back to Tomoyo and Sakura.

"No one else is home?" Tomoyo asked, glancing around the empty house. "Where are Bronya and Lilia?"

She'd noticed there was no one upstairs either.

"Bronya probably returned to her world. As for Lilia, she took in a few disciples, so she's probably teaching them right now. Ram and Rem went to the Underworld—they're not here either."

Takumi shook his head helplessly. Everyone had things to do. He was the only one with free time.

Even Miori Shiba usually worked with the Holy Maiden and only returned home at night. So for now, he was alone.

"Returned home? Is that newly connected world Bronya's homeland?"

Tomoyo was clearly surprised. She'd heard new worlds had been linked to Takumi's, but didn't expect it to be Bronya's world.

"Yes. Bronya's world and Tingyun's world are actually together, so Tingyun went back as well."

This surprised Tomoyo even more. Their worlds were connected?

"They're in the same world bubble? Like mine?" she mused. Her world was also a vast world bubble.

"That's right! The Honkai world is huge, and the number of worlds it contains is countless. You should visit sometime~! Who knows, maybe your powers will let you freely travel through those world bubbles too."

At that moment, a thought struck Takumi—maybe giving Tomoyo the Herrscher of the Void's authority would be a great idea.

He liked Tomoyo a lot, and her innate power already involved dimensional traversal. If she received the Herrscher of the Void's core, she'd probably handle it brilliantly.

Takumi's eyes lit up.

Tomoyo noticed his odd expression just as she was about to speak.

"What's up?" she asked, confused by his sudden mood shift.

"Tomoyo, do you want to become a Herrscher?" Takumi asked with a cheerful smile.

Tomoyo was stunned. Sakura looked puzzled too.

"What's a Herrscher?" she asked.

It was a confusing and sudden question.

Tomoyo, however, knew what a Herrscher was—Takumi had explained it before. There had to be a reason he brought it up now.

She looked at him with curiosity.

"I suddenly thought you'd be a great Herrscher of the Void," he said. "So I wanted to ask how you felt about it. I plan to give my authorities to people I know. Once our world finishes evolving, these powers will be very important."

Takumi didn't hide anything. He explained everything to her.

After listening, Tomoyo nodded in understanding.

"If you want me to become a Herrscher, I have no problem with it. Actually, it sounds like a great deal for me."

She gave him a gentle smile.

Takumi nodded. "Alright! Then you'll become the Herrscher of the Void. I'll entrust this power to you."

He took out the core of the Herrscher of the Void—a faint purple gem.

Tomoyo blinked at it as the core floated toward her under Takumi's control, merging into her body.

Takumi channeled a large amount of Honkai energy to help activate the core.

Instantly, Tomoyo's clothes transformed. A unique symbol appeared in her pupils. Her entire aura changed.

Seeing her transformation, Sakura stood there stunned.

Tomoyo, feeling the surge of power within her, was shocked. Casting dimensional magic was now effortless. She didn't even need to chant—just like Takumi, she could open space-time portals at will.

At the same time, knowledge of the authority flooded into her mind, giving her a deep understanding of it.

"So strong!" she exclaimed.

Tomoyo was overwhelmed by the immense power. She had known about Herrschers for some time, especially since her world had been connected to Takumi's. Takumi himself was a Herrscher, and Miori Shiba had explained things too.

But now that she was experiencing the power firsthand, she realized she had underestimated it.

"Strong, right? That's because I made this core myself—it's stronger than the others. Some Herrschers are so lame. Total noobs who only know how to use one trick."

"Here's a joke: the Herrscher of Wind can only use tornadoes."

Takumi couldn't help bringing up Venti. So embarrassing. He even got defeated by Bronya.

Even Sirin, who had six cores, was still a disappointment. She was even beaten in a reversal.

Tomoyo blinked. "Really? Wouldn't they be strong if they had a user manual? Or do the others not get one?"

She was organizing the instructions in her head that had come with her Herrscher core.

"That manual? I added that in," Takumi said with a chuckle.

The other Herrscher cores didn't come with manuals. All of Takumi's handmade cores came with user guides—instant mastery.

If his Herrscher cores were dropped into the Honkai world, not even a thousand enemies would be enough.

Tomoyo nodded in realization.

So that's how it was.

With that, she returned herself to her original appearance.
