A/N: There's supposed to be an EX chapter today but I felt dizzy while writing it. It'll come tomorow, but for now, here's the chapter I wrote earlier today.
*****
“Honkai?”
The shopkeeper looked at the girl in front of him. He scanned her from head to toe. She did not look like someone who would know things about honkai.
He judged from her accent and knew she wasn...

I put aside my shock.
If it was really Siegfried, it’s not surprising to see his traces on Russia. After all, this is the place where he and Kiana lived for some time.
Schicksal's influence is present in Russia. I won’t be surprised if they have many branches in Siberia. Siegfried will choose this place to make a lot of trouble.
I thought of the techniques I learned these ...

There are two ways to consume the [Bright Jade True Qi Pill]. You either ingest it orally and start cultivating or apply it to your body. It does not matter where. The more qi you circulate, the more this medicine spreads to your body.
Kiana chose the more direct way—eating it.
She did not have to spend extra time applying it somewhere. She sat on the couch and kickstarted her qi ...

Kiana was a fairly normal girl (honkai excluded). Her travels across the world showed her a lot of new things.
Her only regret at that time would be her lack of friends.
It was not that she did not talk to others. She does. But she treats it more as a temporary acquaintance than anything else.
The pain of traveling across the world was that you can't stay in one place...

A/N: Due lemons for Vill-V. That concludes everyone with due lemons. The upcoming ones like Elysia’s will involve character development.
*****
Inside the second institute, Vill-V spun her chair.
“So? You got busy the past two days?”
“...Sorry.”
For the nth time, Aleph used the apology card.
“Well. You fought that strong god. It’s your privilege....

The skies gradually turned dark. The winter snow fell on the streets. The thick clothes Kiana bought worked well here.
“Yawn…”
She yawned after devastating fifteen plates of boneless chicken wings. That was 90 chicken wings in total!
I, on the other hand, only ate forty.
It’s a perk of being a cultivator. Kiana’s monstrous appetite was further increased. The sa...

I half-expected for a honkai-related incident to appear mid-flight.
I got proven wrong.
Schicksal and Anti-Entropy did a very good job in terms of dealing with honkai-related cases. In the position of a normal civilian, you won’t notice anything abnormal at all.
If it wasn’t for meeting Kiana and that honkai beast, I would have thought that these were cosplayers. I will be...

Out of all the problems I thought of, two are the most pressing ones. First was the simultaneous cultivation of three different techniques. Time is limited. I need to make progress faster.
The next one was cultivating while asleep.
Both of these problems could naturally be resolved through mastery. The “small success” stage can allow someone to enter a trance-like state. Its req...

Kiana is bound to leave this place. She wants to find her father. Her last two years are basically her going from places to places in hopes of finding her deadbeat dad.
I know, Siegfried left her to remain under Otto’s surveillance. It had some effect. Otto did not care about her until the third eruption.
Either way, she would continue searching for her dad until she meet...

Mu Continent, Fire MOTH branch.
“He wouldn’t…”
Sakura wandered for a long time around the Mu Continent branch, but to no avail. She waited for Aleph’s appearance, for his words that time, yet he did not show up for an entire night.
She was ready to leave the base. Grievances started to pop up inside her mind… yet she could not find herself angry at him.
His e...

Current record.
Stamina. Good enough to run at full speed for ten minutes. It is enough to travel eight to nine kilometers. Basically around Bolt’s world record.
Strength. I can make a dent in solid metal. Maybe I can cut down a thin-walled hollow metal with bare hands. My hands would get injured, though.
Reaction time. Does seeing Kiana in her full speed count?
It too...

A/N: The groundwork for the cultivation stuff should be enough. I put those knowledge in to capture the immersive feeling of cultivation. Like, there’s a lot more to it than by simply breathing spiritual qi. Since it’s already on the right track, I can speed up the plot progression.

I was able to create a simple cultivation technique after ten tries. ...

Although my current state is better compared to yesterday’s, I gulped down at this book’s complexity.
“This golden orb writes in small font. This thousand-page book’s equivalent should be…”
At least ten thousand pages in terms of real-life books. That’s at least seven Strength of Material books!
One alone is enough to traumatize me for my entire college lif...

We ran for two hours more. Kiana easily grasped the basics of the physical movements. I also noticed in-between that I tend to explain things more lengthily. I am reminded of what I had to go through Honkai Impact 3rd’s story, which made me rethink how I teach.
I was heaving for air while Kiana breathed steadily.
I thought of something and positioned myself in the [Toushen Manual]...

“I was down for eight hours?”
“Hm.”
Kiana nodded in response. It was her fifth sandwich already. She came back to the hotel room holding a bulging white plastic bag.
I was handed in a cup of instant noodles. It wasn’t as good as the ones we used to buy. England has limited options when it comes to things like instant noodles.
It’s very delicious, still.

I am cooked.
I can't remember much of the Poomsae routine my friend did back then. It was around twenty or so.
I can only remember five.
Can I put some random bullshit here?

I waited for its hardcover version to appear on my hands. That's the only way to tell I succeeded i...

The stars in the sky signify humanity’s insignificance in the grand scale of things. A blue dot viewed 6.4 billion kilometers away…

“No, no, no.”

Unfamiliar surroundings.
The sound of people passing by.
Most importantly, the blinding sunlight.

My heart sank. My body felt extremely cold.
Why?
It's simple.

Title: Cultivator in Honkai (Tentative)
Synopsis (Tentative): The journey of immortal cultivation starts from somewhere. Joining a sect, being low-key, meeting that specific jade beauty who has an unparalleled Taiyin Body... Of course she gets kidnapped by a yin-based sect right after. Gathering the materials for the uber-powered Heavenly Great Dao Foundation, aura farming with ten thousand...

Earth.
Well, the real one.
It took ‘time’ to restore the ‘real universe’ to normalcy. The other planets and smaller ‘worlds’ wiped out by Finality? I managed to restore all of them—I mean all of them.
The Imaginary Tree’s reach is also restored. Its system is interesting, to say the least.
Its trunk is considered to be the ‘main world line’. ...

A universe.
It is a place considered as a whole. It has a certain ‘system’ governing it. It is responsible for the rise and fall of numerous ‘worlds’. It nurtures its inhabitants, gives them a chance, and points out the way upwards.
In the honkai world, the Imaginary Tree serves as the ‘system’.
Its trunk serves as the basis for its branches, stem...

I do not know what to say. In the face of Finality, numerous emotions arose.
Part of me is thankful for their test. I will eventually reach my current level, yes, but the experience will be different.
Naturally, I am also very pissed. This outweighs all the other emotions I have.
I want to beat them up. From blu...

To be able to shape an entire world with one’s will…
To be able to alter reality itself…
Aleph did not say much. It was useless to spit out countless paragraphs’ worth of monologues.
His true enemy…

He calmed down for a while. He did not expect that Spirit King’s full power was enough to push him at this level.

“They are being dominated by Finality.”
Aleph muttered as he processed his thoughts. His thinking—something that lasts thousands of years in a second—took care of everything.
He did not delay further.
The gray fog he deployed began to seep into the solar system. Once it was entirely covered, Aleph felt the influence of his Spirit World<...

‘I feel irresponsible…’
Aleph felt guilty. What he did was the equivalent of making a confession and disappearing.
As for his claims to settle things later?
It was irresponsible.
“Fu…”
He focused on his current mission. Getting another authority that was as strong as the Lord of the Mysteries matters in his incoming fight.

There was a reason why Aleph felt Terminus’ familiar aura from Han Xiao. Both of them are considered de-facto controllers of their worlds. They have unimaginable powers simply because they have that position.
‘There should be different cases… but their power should be the same.’
Aleph did not close the possibility that there are Con...

It was a long day for Aleph.
Inside the bedroom, that is.
It was the first time he stayed inside his bedroom for five days straight. Time manipulation did its work, thus the outside world only experienced a mere hour.
‘Might as well treat it as a reward…’
Aleph likened it to the [Achievement Hunter]’s reward. It was a very satisfying one, to boot.

Hua was too shy to take off her clothes.
Surprise, surprise.
It was me who took them off. Her clothes are complicated. First was the outer blue coat. Then her inner wear. Finally, her undergarments.
I removed them all swiftly. Although she was shy during the past year, I had no problems analyzing her clothes—something I did not have to do for Senti.
She wore what...
