"Superstar Eden?!"
Everyone present let out a startled exclamation.
As signed artists of an entertainment company, there wasn't a single one who didn't know her famous name.
Fu Hua asked in a daze: "Are you also an artist with this company?"
Hey!!
Everyone was startled by this question.
Eden answered with a hint of a smile: "I'm still considering it for now, but I hit it off with Ellie at first sight. It wouldn't be out of the question for me to become one of her signed artists in the future."
"Hehe~ As expected of my dear Eden. My company definitely won't disappoint you."
"I believe you, Ellie." She had no doubts about Elysia's words.
However…
When it came to that husband of hers from the rumors,
she still didn't quite trust him.
Now that Honkai Impact 3rd was airing, she could get a glimpse of what kind of person he was through it.
The group chatted a little more.
Then everyone was completely drawn in by the television screen.
Unlike other dramas, this Honkai Impact 3rd surprisingly didn't start with a theme song—instead, it went straight into the main plot.
"Report, Major!"
"Unidentified flying object detected above Soukai City."
"Optical detection negative."
"No bio-energy reaction."
"Internal status unknown."
"Combat plan confirmed."
"Drone squadron deployed. Cover the Valkyrie's boarding."
"Hurry!"
As urgent voices rang out one after another, the screen showed countless Honkai Beasts enveloping the entire city.
Destruction, devastation…
The sense of crisis from a massive disaster hit everyone in the face instantly.
And right at that moment, the BGM suddenly shifted. As a girl stepped forward, the tension vanished in an instant.
It was Kiana.
Wearing the White Comet battlesuit, she faced the crisis threatening the whole city head-on.
There was no nervousness in her, not a trace of fear—only complete calm, and… that impatient expression.
"Yeah, yeah, sounds so easy."
Kiana looked up, brimming with confidence.
Two unmanned fighters flew past her sides, colliding with the flying Honkai Beasts gathering ahead.
The battle began!
As a Valkyrie, Kiana moved freely through the chaotic fight, leaping from one fighter to another.
Every Honkai Beast that attacked was effortlessly shot down by her.
The power of a Valkyrie was revealed to the audience of this world for the very first time.
Even Kiana watching the TV couldn't help but exclaim: "So this young lady is actually this strong?"
Bronya said without mercy: "Special effects! It's all just special effects."
"Hmph! I know that."
Kiana huffed lightly and focused back on the screen.
On the TV, Kiana's fighting style was extraordinarily free and completely unconcerned with consequences.
Especially the way she leaped between fighters—it caused the unmanned aircraft to lose control and crash directly into buildings.
She landed steadily just before the impact.
Opening communications: "Himeko… the plane broke…"
On the other end of the comms,
Murata Himeko, who was commanding the entire operation, sounded a little helpless, but the situation was urgent: "Save the explanations for later. I'll arrange new drones for you right now."
"Soukai City is in peril—for the sake of its 30 million citizens—"
"We at Schicksal must stop this runaway battleship!"
She directed new fighters to support Kiana: "Fighters have landed nearby. Continue advancing!"
"Roger."
Kiana watched the incoming unmanned fighters and leaped straight onto one.
At that moment, several Honkai Beasts followed closely, landing on it and surrounding her.
"Kiana…"
"Himeko, don't worry! Let me take care of these big guys first, then I'll report back!"
Himeko immediately said: "No—the target battleship is already within reach. There's no need to get bogged down here. The drones will soon approach the battleship at maximum proximity—when that happens, seize the chance to board."
Kiana replied: "Relax, watch me finish this quick!"
She surveyed her surroundings.
Then directly unleashed the power of her armor, driving all the Honkai Beasts off.
The entire combat sequence was extremely fluid—especially with the special effects, it didn't look like a filmed drama at all. It felt exactly like something truly happening in another world.
"Himeko, I've driven off the Honkai Beasts. I can see the Moonlight Throne battleship now!"
"Copy. Kiana, prepare to board!"
"Roger!"
As the unmanned fighter skimmed past the battleship,
Kiana leaped down from above.
A few seconds later,
Himeko's voice came through the earpiece again: "Kiana, report your status."
Kiana said: "I'm already on the deck! Everything went smoothly, Himeko!"
Himeko let out a sigh of relief: "How many times do I have to correct you—it's not 'Himeko,' it's 'Major Himeko'…"
She remembered there were others in the operation.
She coughed twice.
Then continued: "We have approximately thirty minutes until the battleship crashes on its own. We absolutely must gain control of it—we cannot allow it to destroy Soukai City!"
"Your teammates have also reached their designated positions. They should contact you soon."
At this point,
Mei's emotions were clearly becoming agitated.
And this scene naturally caught the eyes of Eden and Elysia.
