Honkai Star Rail: Starting With Marrying Acheron

Chapter 5: Do You Like the BGM of the Sword?



Lin Shuang, holding her new sword, opened her eyes again.

Compared to Acheron's curiosity and surprise, her mood seemed a little hard to describe.

Lin Shuang truly felt the strengthening that this imitation Herrscher Core brought to her body when it was integrated into her body.

However, as mentioned in the introduction, the energy available in the core is limited. Just strengthening the body and materializing the greatsword and armor consumes most of the energy.

However, this core cannot automatically extract Honkai energy or imaginary energy. The energy it comes with isn't even full, so she will have even less energy if she uses it.

She needs to find a 'battery' that can continuously supply energy and put it into this core; otherwise, Lin Shuang will just be a strong girl when she runs out of energy.

Of course, if it were just that, Lin Shuang wouldn't be so speechless.

After all, pure power also means pure violence.

What really made her nervous was the huge sword in her hand.

There was a button on the hilt of the sword, and Lin Shuang pressed the button in front of Acheron.

The flame on the sword rose up! Her cloak moved automatically without wind, and the four gems lit up one after another—

The greatsword suddenly made a low-quality "beep beep beep" sound.

Afterwards, Lin Shuang pressed the button twice more, and the poor-quality sound effects gradually disappeared, and then a melodious song sounded:

"Some deserts on this planet were oceans once."

"Somewhere shrouded by the night, the sun will shine~"

Yes, this sword even started playing the background music of "Moon Halo" by Herrscher of Flamescion.

That's not all.

The four gems began to flash rhythmically, and the flames surrounding them moved along with the music.

When Lin Shuang pressed and held the button again, the "beep beep beep" sound of the cheap toy sounded again.

At the same time, the song changed to another one:

"When good old friends are going away"

"Will you wish them to remember your name?"

This time it became "Da Capo.".

The song was nice, but with this weird sound effect and this big sword...

Sense of déjà vu.

An extremely strong sense of déjà vu.

This made it difficult for her not to think of the plastic toys that made sounds and glowed when the children of her relatives held them in their hands when they went home for Chinese New Year.

What was even more unbearable was that Acheron, who was standing by, curiously reached out her hand to touch the flame and discovered something.

"This flame seems to be just an image? There is no energy or heat radiating from the flames."

"Yeah, I know, I know... This sword is a toy sword."

Lin Shuang took a deep breath and kept herself calm.

It's all special effects.

This big-ass sword was just a special effects toy sword!

All the equipment on me is used to match the special effects of this sword.

The four gems above are four LED lights, and the cloak and armor behind me create phantoms of flames.

Lin Shuang fumbled around with the blade for a long time and finally found a groove for the battery!

The groove was also adaptive and could change its shape no matter what version of the battery Lin Shuang put in.

"Isn't this sick?"

Lin Shuang raised her hand and picked up the giant sword that started singing and couldn't stop it at all and slashed it towards the wall!

Boom--!

However, Lin Shuang, who thought the giant sword would be smashed to pieces, watched, surprised as the swung giant sword easily shattered the seemingly extremely solid looking building material.

And it had no effect on itself.

Acheron calmly took the giant sword from Lin Shuang's hand, weighed it, and swung it a few times while listening to the song.

"Your sword is made of good material. It's light and hard. The song is... well, the song is good. Although it does look like a toy, it can be used as a good weapon."

"Ah… um…"

Lin Shuang took the sword helplessly. This thing was a weapon that came with the Herrscher core, and it was definitely the most suitable one for her current strength.

And Acheron admitted it herself, which meant that the quality of this sword as a weapon was absolutely qualified.

If it weren't for that weird sound effect...

Does this mean that every time I fight with others in the future, I will be a woman with my own BGM?

Or this kind of lyrical song...

Although being flashy and cool is a lifelong endeavor, this kind of fashion sense is really not necessary!

Lin Shuang was really having a hard time holding back.

Especially when she thought about suddenly turning on the sound effects and lights during future battles.

She didn't know whether she would be more socially dead or if her enemy would be.

It's better not to have this kind of fashion value that hurts both sides!

When Acheron saw Lin Shuang's expression, she seemed to think of the low-quality speaker sound when Lin Shuang was on the battlefield.

The corner of her mouth curled up into a smile that she herself didn't even notice.

"At least we are not unarmed now. What are your plans next?"

"Well…"

Lin Shuang was brought back to reality by Acheron's words.

Although the equipment she was wearing didn't look very serious at all.

But as long as the quality was guaranteed, it should be used.

So Lin Shuang thought about it and decided that the first priority now was to find a suitable energy source for her Herrscher Core.

After all, the energy reserves in the core were not sufficient. Once they were used up, she wouldn't be able to produce even a flame.

Although she didn't know what would be the right fit, maybe she could try to see if a Stellaron could be stuffed in.

Although this thing was called the "Cancer of All Worlds," it seemed that there was indeed a civilization that had utilized the power of the Stellaron.

Maybe it could provide energy?

And she also had a 'storage card' before from when she opened a white card.

This thing was limited to one object, but there was no upper limit. Maybe she could put a star core in it and take it away?

Thinking of this, Lin Shuang smiled and said:

"Thanks to you, I now have some ability to protect myself. After this, I plan to find the Stellaron of this world, which may be of some use to me."

Lin Shuang looked at Acheron, only to see her putting on a glove for her left hand, covering the ring under the cloth.

Acheron frowned slightly and said:

"The Stellaron... it's better not to get close to them. If you're worried about not leaving, I can take you. If you're just curious, I suggest you not be curious about Stellarons right now."

As she spoke, Acheron ignored Lin Shuang's gaze, stood up, held her scabbard, and knocked on the gap beside her, using her height to look down at her and said:

"You may have power now, but you are not good at fighting. The Antimatter Legion and the creatures of the Rift Valley are more than just the ones we just encountered."

Looking out the window, they could see the Rift Creatures wandering in the distance.

"This planet has been destroyed by the Stellaron. There will be more and stronger monsters lurking near the Stellaron."

Although logically speaking, Acheron had actually done her utmost to be kind and righteous up to this point.

But in fact, there was a hint of unhappiness in her calm tone.

Lin Shuang's appearance and the big sword in her hand always gave her a familiar sense of déjà vu.

In the vast universe, this was not the first time she had met someone who was both similar and different, but not every encounter went smoothly.

For example, now.

She didn't know why Lin Shuang wanted to die, but she didn't want to watch Lin Shuang die.

The meaning of the ceremony had not yet been made fully clear, and Acheron didn't want to let this white-haired, reckless girl be given as food to the creatures of the Rift Valley.
