“Wait, Kiana? Weren't Sirin's clones primarily made using her DNA? This feels like a big trap…never mind. Let’s play first.
“Draw stigmata and weapons? Also expansion? What is this? Let’s see what Valkyries are there in the starter supply.
“Celestial Hymn, Herrscher of the Void, Herrscher of Reason, Azure Empyrea, Stygian Nymph, Bright Knight: Excelsis, Herrscher of the Thunder… Wait, isn’t Sirin the Herrscher of the Void? What the heck! Let’s see how many crystals and supply cards I have. I have 30 crystals, 100 Standard Supply Cards, 100 Focused Supply Cards, 100 Dorm Supply Cards, and 100 Expansion Supply Cards. I also have 28,000 crystals in my mailbox. Spending that one point is worth it.”
[TL Note: Crystal is the premium currency of Honkai Impact 3rd, obtained by paying cash. It is also possible to gain crystals slowly by grinding the game, but it would take a significant amount of time to accumulate sufficient crystals for one’s needs. The supply cards are gacha vouchers for drawing Valkyries, weapons, or Stigmata. The draws can be paid for with supply cards or vouchers. Stigmata are support characters that function like equipment to boost the Valkyrie.]
“Aren’t the Herrschers the enemy of humanity? Isn’t Welt the Herrscher of Reason, but this is Bronya? Raiden Mei is the Herrscher of the Thunder, right? This team of three has two Herrschers. This is too much!” (Chen Heng still does not know that Kiana is the Herrscher of the Void.)
[TL Note: Kiana, Raiden Mei, and Bronya are the three starting Valkyries in Honkai Impact 3rd. This game mostly plays from Kiana’s perspective but switches perspective occasionally.]
“I’ll start with a 10x draw for the Herrscher of the Void. The Herrscher of the Void is not Sirin, right?
“I got it on the first ten draws? The draw chances of this game are too high, right? Let’s set a small target first: gather three Herrschers.”
[TL Note: Depending on which supply you are drawing from, Honkai Impact 3rd guarantees an A-class or S-class every ten draws.]
Chen Heng looked at the three Herrschers in the Valkyrie Showcase and felt that this game would end up shutting down because of this. The draw rate was too high. He managed to get three Herrschers after three sets of 10x draws.Let’s continue drawing, then.
However, Chen Heng was clearly too inexperienced. After drawing all the Expansion Supply Cards, he started thinking deeply. Where did the Stygian Nymph come from? It is even harder to obtain than the Herrschers. However, there’s no need to worry. I have 30 more draws to a guaranteed draw. Furthermore, I still have 28,000 crystals.
[TL Note: Depending on which supply draws, Honkai Impact 3rd has a guaranteed draw for a certain Valkyrie, weapon, or Stigmata after 100 draws.]
As for the following situation of drawing more Valkyries, there’s no need to go into it. In summary, it was a miserable experience. Honkai Impact 3rd proved that it would not suffer, even if the players seemed to benefit. This frustrated Chen Heng so much that he nearly pulled a meteor over the top of the game developer’s company.
This mood continued until Chen Heng found a window for topping up. He could use one point to level up the captain level directly to level 85. He could use one point to redeem any basic S-ranked Valkyrie. With two points, he could obtain any basic S-ranked Valkyrie and a complete set of Stigmata and equipment. Three points allowed him to upgrade the equipment to the max. Five points could upgrade a basic S-rank to SSS-rank with equipment, and Stigmata to the max.
[Author Note: So, this shows how valuable 10,000 points are. Was taking care of Sirin for 2,000 points worth it? The purchasing power of points is tremendous.]
If one was unlucky, one could make up for it with points.
“This game is truly boring. So many drawing gachas…I should continue playing the story.” After spending some points and upgrading everything he had to the max, he shifted his attention to the story.
Logically speaking, using max-leveled SSS-ranked Valkyries to play the early stages made one invincible. The only exception would be those stages where the Valkyries and equipment were restricted.
By the time Chen Heng played through the story, a few hours had passed. Unfortunately, the game had only been released up to Chapter 17. The later chapters were not out yet.
“So, is K423 Sirin or not? I don’t quite understand. My mind is buzzing.
“Never mind. In any case, Sirin will come back to life.
“Anyway, I know how to make Sirin happy now. I can do it through food. Based on the past two days, she does like to eat.
“However, looking at it now, Sirin doesn’t seem to appreciate a chef with mid-tier cooking like me. I should bring her out to eat tomorrow. That way, she will understand how incredible my cooking is. Humans only know how to treasure things after losing them.”
This time, Chen Heng felt satisfied with the results of playing the game. He had received plenty of helpful information. Although K423 might not fully be Sirin, there’s no need to doubt her ability to eat. It looks like I did not buy the mid-tier cooking for nothing.
It was already past 11. Chen Heng decided to check if Sirin was already sleeping. Going to bed early and waking up early was a good habit. Although he could not maintain this habit, he could let Sirin maintain it.
Alright. It looks like she is not asleep yet. After Chen Heng walked out of the room, he saw light coming from under Sirin’s door.
Knock! Knock! Knock! “Sirin, go to sleep! You have to get up for breakfast, alright? I’ll wake you up at eight o’clock tomorrow!” Chen Heng said in a tone that he believed to be stern.
“Got it! I’ll sleep now!” Who knows what Sirin is playing every day? If this carries on, she will become addicted to the Internet. It looks like I should take out some time to accompany her.
Chen Heng returned to his room after hearing Sirin’s reply. However, he felt that there was a good chance Sirin might not listen. She was a child, after all, and must have a lot of energy. Hence, he decided to think of some way to expend her energy tomorrow, to make her sleep early and wake up early.
After Chen Heng returned to his room, he immediately fell asleep after getting into bed. Controlling one’s sleep was a necessary ability of every martial artist.
The night passed. When Chen Heng opened his eyes again, the first thing he did by reflex was to check the time in the chat group interface. This thing was much more accurate than a watch. After all, it could never be wrong.
6:05
This was the current time. Chen Heng’s biological clock was quite accurate, waking him up around six o’clock every day.
His daily morning practice routine followed getting up and washing up. Yesterday, he had been thinking of finding something for Sirin to do to drain her energy. Practicing the sword was a good choice. It could temper her mind, preventing her ego from inflating so frequently. Thinking of that made him feel like laughing.
Furthermore, it would give Sirin a skill to protect herself with, so it was pretty useful.
Chen Heng did not worry that Sirin’s learning the sword would significantly impact her original world. After all, she would learn for only one month. Her newly learned sword technique would be useless against those who could defeat the Herrscher of the Void, and she would not need to use the sword technique against those who could not defeat the Herrscher of the Void.
Perhaps it might make things harder for Kiana’s aunt, who used the Oath of Judah’s Zeroth Power, when fighting against Sirin alone. It’s fine. In any case, there would be a reversal of the situation. There’s no difference, regardless of the method.
[TL Note: The Oath of Judah’s Zeroth Power nullifies all Honkai energy within a suppression field. The event in the above paragraph can be found in a Honkai manga, and this specific scene can be found in Episodes 58-60: https://manga.honkaiimpact3.com/book/1005.]
I’ll leave it for today. Who knows what time Sirin slept last night? If I wake her up to practice the sword now, she might throw a tantrum. Let’s start tomorrow.
Practicing the sword usually did nothing for Chen Heng. After all, he had already hit the limits of a martial artist. However, he used his attraction ability while practicing the sword, creating an effect similar to an increased-gravity field. This way, he could continuously strengthen his body by practicing the sword, improving his speed and capacity to resist pressure.
Now, things were even more convenient with his gravity ability. He could directly create a gravity field, significantly lessening the consumption of Will Energy.
