"Fight! Fight! Fight!"
"I love watching two beautiful girls fight!"
Ahem... What I meant was, I love watching two Emanators battle.
In the live stream, Little Bear's eyes lit up as he watched the cutscene of Lumina and Feixiao clashing.
The words that blurted out almost made the live stream audience think he was a pervert.
Fortunately, Little Bear quickly offered an explanation, salvaging a bit of his dignity as a streamer.
But... it was no use.
Once the words were out, no amount of explaining or backtracking could undo the damage.
After all, the editors of clip channels were masters of manipulation.
Say something even remotely perverse, and no matter what you said before or after, their masterful editing would instantly transform you into a raving pervert.
There was no escaping this fate.
Especially since the live stream audience had heard Little Bear's words loud and clear.
[ Fight! Fight! Fight! Beautiful girls fighting? We need more of this! More! More! More! ]
[ Hey Mihoyo, why didn't their clothes get torn at all during the fight? I want to see a battle-damaged Feixiao! I want to see a battle-damaged Lumina! ]
[ But didn't Feixiao have that "clothing explosion" moment? Look, she suddenly lost a piece of her outfit mid-fight! Mihoyo, if it's a fair duel, it should look like one! If Feixiao lost an article of clothing, shouldn't Lumina lose one too for fairness? ]
[ Upstairs, I can hear your calculations from overseas! If Lumina takes off her clothes, wouldn't she be practically naked? ]
[ Hehehehe (ˉ『ˉ) Lady Lumina... Hehehehe (ˉ『ˉ) Lady Lumina... Can you... ahem... please... use your hands...? ]
[ Uh? Although... isn't anyone concerned that the streamer is spouting such perverted nonsense? ]
[ The streamer being a pervert isn't news. Why bother paying attention? ]
Although Little Bear's perverted remarks rang loud and clear through the live stream, few viewers seemed to care.
After all, the image Little Bear had cultivated in the audience's eyes had long been ruined. They already saw him as a pervert, so their attention was focused entirely on the game's cutscenes, barely noticing his behavior.
While being seen as a "diehard pervert" by the audience wasn't exactly ideal, given the circumstances, it could actually be considered a blessing.
At least it saved him the trouble of having to explain himself.
How delightful, Little Bear thought to himself, feeling a surge of glee.
With that, he turned his attention back to the game, focusing intently on the cutscene.
"Damn... Lumina completely dominated Feixiao the entire time..."
"No, it wasn't just domination. It felt like Feixiao was fighting with all her might but couldn't even get close to Lumina, let alone injure her. It was like a father disciplining his child!"
Little Bear exclaimed again after watching for only a short while.
After all, Feixiao—the Triumphant General and Vanquishing General, who had previously shone with glory and even earned a fleeting glimpse from the Aeon of The Hunt—couldn't even get close to Lumina.
This was truly beyond everyone's expectations.
Given Lumina's previous displays of godlike power, few initially harbored high expectations for the outcome of this battle.
After all, no matter how strong Feixiao might be, she couldn't possibly match Lumina, who had effortlessly withstood Sunday's Work of Creation.
However, when it became clear that Feixiao couldn't even get close to Lumina, both Little Bear and the audience were stunned.
After all, Feixiao had just received a fleeting glance from the Aeon of The Hunt!
With the blessings of the Flying Aureus, she was likely unmatched on the entire Xianzhou, save perhaps for the enigmatic Marshal.
Yet here was Feixiao, a warrior ranked among the elite of the Xianzhou Alliance, being effortlessly slaughtered by Lumina like a child...
[ It's not that Feixiao is weak—it's that Lumina is just too strong. ]
[ Didn't Herta say back on Penacony that Lumina's current strength far surpasses that of an Emanator? As for how far beyond—whether she's reached the level of an Aeon—we still don't know. ]
[ I want to see Lumina's clothes explode! I want to see Lumina's clothes explode! I want to see Lumina's clothes explode!!! ]
[ "Unfair! Unfair! Feixiao even went to the extreme of ripping her clothes to show respect for the battle. Lady Lumina, how could you... how could you ignore such reverence?! So, clothes-ripping! Clothes-ripping!" ]
[ "Lumina x Feixiao, Clothes-Ripping During Battle! [That Day, the Unspoken Secret of the Wardance Ceremony] Hot on Sale Now!!! Not 9998, not 888, just 108! Strike while the iron's hot! Click my avatar and send me a private message to reserve your copy!" ]
[ "Lol, this is the first time I've ever seen a doujinshi require reservations. Legendary!" ]
Drawn in by the cutscene, the Doujinshi Seller didn't cause the usual uproar this time. Instead, he only attracted some freeloaders who sent private messages to harass him...
"Hiss... Now that you mention it, I remember too."
"Herta said Lumina's power definitely surpasses that of an Emanator."
"So, when will Lumina's Aeon Form finally make its official debut?"
Seeing that comment, Little Bear nodded, suddenly enlightened.
His eyes now shone with anticipation, yearning for the day Lumina's Aeon Form would be added to the gacha pool.
[ Lumina's Aeon Form, Lumina's Aeon Form! Please, Mihoyo, please release Lumina's Aeon Form soon! Even if it's a guaranteed drop after 200 pulls, and each pull costs 320 Stellar Jade, I wouldn't mind! ]
[ If they actually gave you a guaranteed drop after 200 pulls at 320 Stellar Jade per pull, you'd complain. ]
[ One thing at a time. I'm just saying, if they dared to do that, I'd roast them to hell (smiling). ]
[ Exactly, one thing at a time. If they actually did it, I'd personally make them regret it (smiling). ]
[ Clothes ripping! Clothes ripping! I want to see Lumina's clothes rip! (crying) Don't beautiful girls' fights always involve clothes ripping and tearing? Come on, it's a must! ]
"No clothes ripping," Little Bear said firmly. "This is a proper live stream, and we play proper games. If they actually added clothes ripping..."
"It's not just me who'd be in trouble. Honkai: Star Rail would instantly vanish from the Chinese gaming scene."
Seeing the Comment Section's demands for clothes ripping, Little Bear explained the situation simply.
Though he, too, secretly wished to see Lumina's Aeon Form with clothes ripping, he knew it was just wishful thinking.
After all, this was only a 12+ rated game. What more could you expect?
You can't expect a 12+ game to suddenly become a 21+ one, can you?
