Collapse, how did I become the Devil King of Destruction while playing a game?

"It's just a title," Mei didn't care, but deep down she hoped that once Kevin shed his identity as a Fusion Warrior, the side effects would be completely eliminated, allowing her to embrace Kevin again.

Surprisingly, Kevin also has the talent to perceive imaginary energy, and not only Kevin, but also Thousand Calamities and Aponia brought by Pado have it.

After more detailed testing, May discovered that she and Wilvi both had the talent to perceive imaginary numbers. In fact, most people have some degree of this talent, just to varying degrees.

As for why all the magical girls in the other parallel world are girls, Mei can probably guess a little.

May did not publicize the matter of imaginary energy, but only claimed that there was a better improvement plan for the fusion warriors. Therefore, the higher-ups of the Firemoth did not know that imaginary energy could be taught to others. They were all trying to find out the blueprints of the time machine from Patro.

Still no.

Pado was somewhat disappointed. She had been searching for nearly a month, but still couldn't find Muels and Emilia in this world. It was as if they didn't exist in this world.

"Don't be discouraged, we will find them," Alicia encouraged Paddo.

"Hmm... Hmm? Hmm?!" Pado suddenly clenched her hands.

Alicia was also taken aback for a moment.

During this time, she also learned from Padofelis how to manipulate imaginary energy. Although Alicia had the memories of her other self, memories are just memories and do not mean that Alicia can understand and comprehend the power and magic of her other self.

However, Alicia's perception also became much sharper as a result.

"The Eighth Herrscher!"

Padofelis contacted Aponia almost immediately via magical communication.

Pado is not good at the level of consciousness, so she has been trying her best to teach Aponia how to manipulate imaginary energy and enhance Aponia's own talent, which has been quite effective.

Inside the Moth of Flames base, Aponia also sensed the Honkai energy reaction of the 8th Herrscher. After receiving a contact from Paddo, she immediately began secretly searching for the location of the 8th Herrscher's main body.

However, a short while later, Aponia contacted Paddo.

“Padau…I think I’ve found the location of the 8th Herrscher,” Aponia knew.

"Don't be careless. This could be a trick or a disguise by the Eighth Herrscher! Be very careful!" Pado was skeptical. They found the Eighth Herrscher so quickly? Impossible! The Eighth Herrscher isn't some kitten or puppy; how could they be found so easily?

Alicia was also quite nervous; she had to be very careful when dealing with the 8th Herrscher!

"Oh," Aponia replied, still somewhat confused.

She looked at the Eighth Herrscher's true form and did not make any rash moves.

In a secluded spot, the 8th Herrscher looked around suspiciously.

"I always feel like someone is watching me?"

The Eighth Herrscher searched for a long time but found nothing, so she had no choice but to continue according to the plan, using her powers to prepare to destroy the trust between people! And then pull many people into the deeper consciousness!

Aponia reported again on the location of the suspected original body of the 8th Herrscher. This time, Pado did not hesitate, but she was not careless either. She and Alicia called Kevin, Sakura, Qianjie and Aponia together.

They no longer use Honkai energy, but imaginary energy, which is much stronger than before. Velvet and Mega worked overtime to give the Divine Keys modified from the 7 Herrscher cores to Alicia and Pado.

Since everyone is using imaginary energy, the Divine Key no longer has any side effects for them.

Then they launched a surprise attack on the 8th Herrscher, wielding the Divine Keys and beating her with the fastest, fiercest, and most ferocious force. The group used the power and imaginary energy of the Divine Keys to smash her for a long time. Pado was still not satisfied and continued to search around, wary of the 8th Herrscher who might have already escaped.

About a day later, Pado still hadn't found any trace of the Eighth Herrscher.

“Pado…”

"What's wrong? Did you find something?!"

Padoflis looked around warily.

Aponia hesitated for a moment, then said.

"The Eighth Herrscher was already dead when we first made our move."

What followed was merely a blatant desecration of the corpse.

Aponia didn't say that aloud.

A side story: Back to the past? (10)

"Gah! You have no sportsmanship!"

The Ninth Herrscher let out a single scream before being completely overwhelmed by countless attacks.

Kevin then began cleaning up the battlefield with his 7th Divine Key, the Skyfire Greatsword, burning and clearing away the ruins on the ground; Aponia picked up a microphone, used her 8th Divine Key, Feather of Dust, and sang to soothe the frightened people; Mebius and Velvet also used their Divine Keys to begin repairing the city.

"Is the Ninth Herrscher really that weak?"

Padofelis stared into deep thought as she looked at the Herrscher core of the 9th Herrscher before her.

After the death of the 8th Herrscher, the 9th Herrscher appeared on the continent of Mu. However, before it could do anything, the 9th Herrscher was beaten to death by a group of Valkyries who grabbed the Divine Keys.

This gave Pado a dreamlike feeling; how could these Herrschers be so weak?

Kevin, standing to the side, didn't quite understand why Padofelis thought the Herrschers were weak.

But Pado can indeed say that.

The moment the Ninth Herrscher appeared, Pado unleashed a beam of light. The energy reading from it caused all of the Firemoth's detection instruments to exceed their limits. Kevin had no doubt that with this one shot, the Ninth Herrscher would be gone, and the Mu continent would probably be destroyed as well.

Fortunately, Pado managed to control the light cannon in time and retract it, allowing Alicia and the other Valkyries to quickly take action.

The Ninth Herrscher had just created a black hole when Alicia extinguished it, causing less damage than the Valkyries.

Come to think of it, isn't there something slightly off about the title "Valkyrie"? Kevin fell into deep thought.

He was clearly a sunny and handsome man.

After shedding the genetic fusion of the Fusion Warriors, Kevin was no longer the cold and aloof figure he once was, because he no longer suffered from the side effect of extreme cold on his body.

"Paddo, Alicia, the damage this time was quite significant. We might need to be more careful in the future." After cleaning up the battlefield, Mei contacted Paddo and Alicia.

"I'll be careful," Pado said, also feeling a bit of a headache.

For some reason, the Earth-Moon system in this parallel world lacks a binding layer, which makes Padofilis's fighting style very restrictive. She is afraid that she might accidentally blow up an entire continent.

When the Ninth Herrscher appeared, she almost unleashed the light cannon she had conjured. If she hadn't realized something was wrong in time, that cannon would have made her no different from the Herrscher, directly annihilating all the humans on the entire Mu continent.

"That's strange, why isn't there a binding layer?"

Pado sighed sadly.

Unfortunately, she couldn't find any answers either. During her time in this parallel world, she was searching for Muleseth and Emilia, teaching Alicia and the Valkyries how to use imaginary energy, gradually clearing out the insects in the upper echelons of the Fire Moth and taking control of the Fire Moth. In addition, Pado also had to take time to recover her magic power.

Padofelis was so busy that she was practically running around on her feet. When she discovered that the Ninth Herrscher had appeared, she rushed over immediately, but she didn't have time to beat up the punching bag to calm herself down.

"Binding layer, what is that?" Velvi leaned closer and asked curiously.

Previously, Pado had only given her a few fragments of memories. Vivi wanted to learn more about the other parallel world, but because Pado and Alicia were busy, she didn't have many opportunities to ask.

In fact, it wasn't just Velvi who was curious; the other Valkyries were also very curious.

"Enveloped by two layers of constraints: the Earth-Moon system and the solar system."

As Pado answered, she reassembled the beam cannon that she had just intended to use to blast the Ninth Herrscher to death.

Everyone immediately felt the terrifying energy reaction from this luminous cannon again, and even the space around Pado began to distort slightly.

One shot could destroy an entire continent. If you were to hit a weak point in the Earth's crust, wiping out the entire surface would be no problem. With a concentrated attack, you could even penetrate the Earth's core.

But Pado simply waved her hand and the light cannon disappeared.

"This light cannon only has a power of 50HW. That's only enough to demolish a few buildings in my world."

"However, as you can see now, the same 50HW of imaginary energy can produce extremely strong power here."

"The binding layers of our world restrict the exertion of magic."

Having just recovered to 500 HW of imaginary energy, Padofilis is now hesitant to go all out, fearing she might accidentally blow up the Earth.

Including Alicia, everyone's expression was slightly solemn, because they were also learning to manipulate imaginary energy, and they would encounter the same problem in the future.

The destructive power they caused was already evident in the battle against the Ninth Herrscher. A third of the city where the Ninth Herrscher appeared was destroyed by the aftershocks of their attack, but no one was injured and they were all rescued in time.

However, Padofelis, whose strength was already enough to destroy the Earth, was not at her peak, and she was not the strongest in another parallel world, but rather one of the weakest.

"How many magical girls did your academy have back then?" Mebius asked abruptly.

She also accepted Paddo's teachings on the use of imaginary energy and became a Valkyrie, but at the cost of being inseparable from Sakura and Aponia every day.

"At its peak, there were over 13,000 people." Paddo didn't answer; instead, Alicia answered for her. Alicia had memories of herself from another world and often watched those memories of her parallel world self as if watching a movie, leaving a very deep impression.

“At its peak…” Möbius raised an eyebrow slightly.

In other words, did the number of magical girls suddenly decrease at some point?

Mebius recalled what Pado had said before: that her counterpart in another world indirectly caused the deaths of 20 billion humans. Perhaps the sudden drop in the number of magical girls happened at that time.

However, Mebius did not ask any further questions, clearly indicating that neither Alicia nor Padoflis wanted to discuss it.

After handing over all the follow-up matters to the local government, Alicia and her companions boarded a cloud carried by Padora and flew up into the clouds.

When Pado returned to the Firemoth base, she received a message from Mei again.

Still no news? Okay, I understand.

Mei's attempts to contact them were simple; she still couldn't find Muels and Emilia in this world, as if they didn't exist at all.

However, Paddo had already guessed in her heart that Miu Miu and Amy in this world had most likely died when they were children.

Pado sadly shut down the communication and then looked at Alicia.

"Hi, see you later," Alicia was talking to Eden.

In this parallel world, many of the senior and junior students that Pado knew seemed to not exist.

"Pado? We're almost home!"

"Um"

A side story: Back to the past? (11)

That evening, in a villa near the Fire Moth base.

Mebius's gaze was cold as he stared intently at Sakura in front of him.

After a moment, she slowly spoke.

"why?"

Sakura remained expressionless, holding the third Divine Key and looking at Mebius.

"These are Alicia and Paddo's orders."

"...Ha, you're always keeping an eye on me?"

"Yes"

"...Including when I'm taking a shower?"

A misty steam enveloped Möbius and Sakura, and two alluring blushes appeared on Möbius's cheeks as he soaked in the bathtub.

Sakura's complexion also became slightly rosy.

"Yes," she nodded.

Mebius squatted down in the water, silently blowing bubbles.

However, after a short while, Alicia's voice came from outside the bathroom door.

Hi, I'm coming in?

“…” Mebius didn’t want to move.

She returned to her lab the next morning.

However, what Möbius found somewhat strange was that Paddo was standing with Alicia at the laboratory entrance, surrounding her assistant Klein.

"What's wrong?" Mebius asked as he stepped forward.

But as soon as she stepped inside, she knew why.

Klein possesses a Herrscher Core.

"Klein has been chosen as the 10th Herrscher of Domination," Alicia said, looking at Klein with great confusion.

“?” Mebius was taken aback.

"I've discovered more Herrscher Cores," Mei's communication video message came through.

Alicia, Padofelis, and Mebius could all see behind Mei that Kevin was reaching into the bodies of some people.

"A total of 16 Herrscher Cores," Kevin's voice rang out, while those whose Herrscher Cores had been removed were receiving treatment.
