Chapter 46 (volume 2)
{ You asshole! You shit! You bastard! You asshole! You piece of shit! ... how dare you heal that traitor ?! }
The Herrscher of Corruption has not stopped cursing Ryusuke, she is very furious at his decision to use Serenity Gem to heal Welt.
During the time she was trapped inside Ryusuke's body she understood his personality. She knows that he does not want to destroy humanity, but the reason for this is not because he likes humanity but because he just wants to have fun in his own corner. It is basically because he is lazy.
But she didn't care much about it, for she knows that he knows the ugly side of humanity and that sooner or later he will become a true Herrscher who will exterminate that filthy plague.
The Herrscher of Corruption always knew that she was in Ryusuke's hand. He always had the ability to erase it completely and easily because of his absurd willpower. He often wanted to use the full power of Corruption but he did not want to destroy Herrscher to steal all of his power.
The Herrscher of Corruption did not ignore the fact that Ryusuke showed consideration to her and her past and that despite having kept her prisoner inside his body and that he managed to use a small fraction of her power he did not kill her to acquire more power.
And there is also the fact that he talks to her a little while. As she has always been alone in the black cube for more than 50 thousand years, she misses a little interaction with other people, and she never had the opportunity to have a decent conversation with Yae Sakura since Yae Sakura always rejected Herrscher's words.
Although the conversations between her and Ryusuke were short and the two almost always cursed each other, she still liked to talk to him so as not to feel alone. She was in no hurry about the question of Ryusuke joining for the Honkai side, she lived for more than 50 thousand years so waiting a few more years for her is nothing big. When he joins Honkai's side she will welcome Ryusuke as a colleague Herrscher. She is very anxious for the day when they may be Herrschers friends who will destroy humanity.
But now she is completely furious with him. The reason for this is that Ryusuke used the powers of Serenity Gem to heal the traitor.
The Herrscher of Corruption was surprised when she saw Welt. Even with her sealed powers she was still able to feel that Honkai marked the Herrscher of Reason for this era as a traitor. She never, in her wildest dreams, ever imagined a Herrscher cheating on Honkai to protect humanity. She also realized that Welt Yang was not the Herrscher of original Reason but a successor.
It was enough for her to look at the welt for just a moment to understand that Welt was genuinely fighting to protect humanity. For her who suffered bitterly at the hands of humanity, she has a deep hatred against humanity and she feels disgusted to see that Welt really likes to help humanity.
At this point she was really relieved to see that Ryusuke was not like Welt.
'At least he will not take the initiative to help humanity...' But the same moment she thought about it, Ryusuke used Serenity Gem's powers to heal Welt's internal injuries.
{ 😑 ... } Herrscher of Corruption.
The Herrscher of Corruption was momentarily stunned. The next moment when he finished processing what just happened ... she burst into fury, she was outraged by what just happened.
A few minutes after Welt and Einstein left Ryusuke's house.
{ You shit! How dare you heal the traitor ?! } The Herrscher of Corruption confronted Ryusuke. She had no way of being silent after what happened.
"Yes, I healed Welt-san's injuries, so what?" Ryusuke asked with a somewhat annoyed expression about Herrscher's screams and complaints. He already hoped that she would react that way.
{ So what? How dare you do that?! You helped the traitor, you helped the human plague. Didn't you say you wanted to be neutral? You're just a fucking liar! } The Herrscher of Corruption screamed out of anger over Ryusuke's actions.
*sigh * "Don't call me a liar, I speak the truth when I say that I don't want to get involved in the conflict between humanity and Honkai. I have my reasons for curing Welt-san. " Ryusuke said in a tired man.
{ Hmph, as if I were going to believe your lies. And then? What reason would you have for helping the traitor? It sure will be some shit like video games, right? } Herrscher of Corruption asked sarcastically, she was in a very bad mood.
"Mobius."
It was enough for Ryusuke to speak only one name... The name of the woman that Herrscher of Corruption fears most, so that she could pass from her furious form to a frightened child who keeps shaking with fear. Mobius became an indelible trauma in Herrscher's memories of Corruption.
"If Griseo is alive in this era then it is not impossible for Mobius to be, either. If she ever knows about the two of us ... do you think she would leave us alone if she knew about our existence? Do you think he would restrain himself in attempts to capture us? The answer is simple..."
"No, she would not give up on us. She would use every possible means to catch both of us. She can have great control at World Serpent, do you think that if she started a total attack on us we would still be able to win? We may be lucky to survive in the first battle but we will not be able to fight the whole world alone, right?"
"That's why I healed Welt-san, thanks to that I get protection from Anti-Entropy. Anti-Entropy is not currently unified but at least we are no longer completely defenseless, right?"
"You can resent me as much as you want for healing Welt-san, I don't care about that. I will do whatever it takes to protect myself and the people who are precious to me." Ryusuke spoke in a serious tone.
The Herrscher of Corruption was still a little dissatisfied with Ryusuke's actions but she was silent. She really didn't want to fall into Mobius' hands again.
"Now then could you be quiet for a while? I need to focus on the following preparations..." Ryusuke spoke while he picked up some empty plastic bottles.
{ What do you intend to do? } The Herrscher of Corruption was confused by what Ryusuke meant.
"It is quite simple. I just want to prepare the house for the next guest who will come to visit this house. Maybe she'll arrive tonight or maybe she'll come tomorrow." Ryusuke spoke while he took Jizo Mitama.
