Chapter 1179: , Herrscher of Rimestar, Herrscher of Flamescion, Herrscher of Void-Thunder (Please subscribe)
"Thank you, Welt. However, the person who will become the next Herrscher of Reason is not me."
Bai Ge took this Gem of Reason and played with it. The translucent gray-white core had no impurities, and like the Gem of Domination of the Herrscher of Dominance, it was a distributed structure.
"What? Not you?"
"Hmm-huh~ Do you think I still need to rely on this Gem of Reason to become the Herrscher of Reason at this point?"
Bai Ge shook his head with a smile. He no longer needed a Herrscher core; the authority had become his inherent ability. And ever since he completed the great feat of constructing the world back then.
He could clearly feel that he was getting closer and closer to the realm of "Truth."
If he could take down the Herrscher of Reason cores of both the Previous Era and the current era, then Bai Ge would surely achieve the Herrscher of Truth in an instant.
But... even without it, it's almost there.
"It would be a waste for me to use this core now. I will give it to someone else who is suitable."
"...... Sorry, Bai Ge, I currently haven't recognized anyone other than you to become the Herrscher of Reason. If the object is not you, then I cannot give you the core."
Welt shook his head seriously.
Everything else is negotiable, but this is the Gem of Reason entrusted to him by Joyce back then. He must ensure that the next Herrscher of Reason is qualified enough not to go astray.
"Of course, let me introduce her to you."
Bai Ge nodded, opened a portal, reached in, and pulled out a cute but confused Bronya.
"I want Bronya to become the next Herrscher of Reason."
"Bronya... Zaychik?"
Welt, who had served as a history teacher at St. Freya Academy, immediately recognized Bronya, but this time there was no kindness in his eyes; his brows were slightly furrowed, and he was scrutinizing her.
Subsequently, Welt shook his head in dissatisfaction. First, he didn't know Bronya, and second, he didn't think she was more suitable to inherit the name of the world than Bai Ge.
"Don't jump to conclusions so quickly. Since you need Welt's approval, then just give her a test. If my Bronya passes, you give her the core. If she doesn't, just pretend I never said anything."
Bai Ge raised his hand to stroke Bronya's head, full of confidence.
"A test? Good, then it's a deal."
Welt nodded this time. He was already old and didn't intend to cling to power shamelessly. Although he was a bit reluctant, if there was a suitable successor.
He would be very happy to let go of the Herrscher of Reason authority.
"This, what is going on?"
Bronya widened her eyes, unable to even maintain her "three-no" face. She was having class properly at the academy, and then she was suddenly lifted from the Far East to North America by a hand.
Bronya hadn't reacted yet, and then she heard Bai Ge say he wanted her to become the next Herrscher of Reason and have Welt give her a test.
(Who am I? Where am I? What are you doing?)
Bronya looked at Bai Ge blankly.
"Become the Herrscher of Reason? Why so suddenly?"
"Ahem, look, Bronya. Kiana and Mei have long become Herrschers. As one of the 'Three Main Characters,' wouldn't it seem very out of place if you didn't have a Herrscher core in your body?"
"Uh, why do we have to be 'in place' about this? And the 'Three Main Characters' thing—we aren't Honkai Pokémon. But fine... Bronya accepts Mr. Welt's test. Herrscher of Reason, Bronya is determined to be it!"
Although still a bit confused and at a loss, Bronya had already grasped the key... as long as she could pass the test, she could inherit this Gem of Truth and achieve the Herrscher of Reason!
Since that was the case, there was nothing to hesitate about.
