My Game Studio is Full of Valkyries?!

The "Queen" descended slowly from the sky, step by step, each footfall landing on a violet-black platform beneath her.

The level of technical craftsmanship here was beyond the players' comprehension.

[At this moment, it is judgment time☆]

[The Queen descends!]

[Her voice remains, her smile lingers.jpg]

[Kick out anyone spamming nonsense—Long live the Queen!!]

...

Amid the uproar—

Kiana, queen-like, raised her hand with a cold expression and snapped her fingers.

Snap~!

A crisp sound, striking straight into every heart.

Countless portals unfolded behind her.

The music began!

"When your visage fades, and hurricanes rise

This world crushed beneath my feet..."

"Long live the Queen"—an endless chant

Cadence falling, rising, never-ending...

Her song sent shivers down their spines.

In that moment,

The players remembered Anti-Entropy's bankruptcy,

Remembered the Queen's overwhelming presence at her debut,

Remembered Honkai Beasts pouring through dimensional gates, bringing destruction.

"Roar!!"

"Heh~☆"

With a mighty roar, the Queen turned.

Benares spread her wings, circling the stage as she descended from the heavens—

Until she bowed beneath the Queen's feet.

And the Queen cast a sidelong glance toward the audience.

That inexplicable pressure quieted everyone.

In the silence, another song began, gently unfolding with piano accompaniment.

The flames burning on stage parted as Crimson Rose walked forth.

The figure clad in crimson armor was blurred by fire,

But for Captains who had walked with Honkai Impact 3rd from the start,

A dull ache welled in their hearts.

[I wish I could have one last drink.]

[Kiana, when you wake up, you'll find this world no longer beautiful.]

[This is... the Final Lesson...]

[Are you all poisoned?! Why are you volunteering for pain?!]

[Hahaha, welcome to Honkai Impact 3rd!!]

...

As mortals raised a god-slaying sword,

The stage ignited with a true crimson blaze.

The battle raged on to the song's rhythm.

And in the end, the Queen fell from the sky.

Light faded from the surroundings until only one spotlight remained—

Shining on Himeko.

She stumbled toward Kiana,

Gently caressing her face with relief—

Slowly, her eyes closed.

The light passed from her to Kiana.

"Live on, Kiana."

If the players had merely been rowdy before,

Now—many were breaking down.

After Everlasting Flames, they knew—

Himeko, at this moment, was truly...

So seeing it again,

Only made the pain worse.

[Didn't expect Final Lesson to hit this hard after Everlasting Flames. I can't take it.]

[Now I know why miHoYo didn't sell live concert tickets—if I were there in person, it'd be either the scriptwriter or me left standing.]

[Good thing I prepared tissues—wait, why am I so used to this...? Damn you, miHoYo!!]

"Himeko-sensei."

"I'll rewrite this tragic story into the ending we longed for."

At some point, Kiana raised her head.

With a touch to her device, her Queen attire shifted into Void Drifter.

Thanks to Miss Vill-V's handy quick-change gadget.

The stage transformed into a bustling city of skyscrapers.

Kiana ran—leapt—

A duet from Elysia and Eden played from backstage.

Players took in the emotion, flooded with memories.

These visuals, these songs—they had watched and listened to them countless times.

But no matter how often, hearing them again stirred infinite emotion.

[Even if the night is long and eternity bleak, I shall become a star to kindle hope. Your vow—I will fulfill it!]

Himeko-sensei, this is my promise.

Kiana's whisper still echoed in their ears.

They remembered how her sudden maturity back then had made them both proud and heartbroken.

[Lightning severed the past, and we walked separate paths. When thunder fades and rain ceases, I shall fall into darkness to bring you back to the light.]

You are more important than this world.

It had been a long time since Mei and Kiana parted.

What would happen when they reunited?

What would they feel?

[The world's chaos has numbed me; treasured bonds have faded; a millennium of resolve, all for saving humanity.]

Shut up! Don't think you can run away from me!

That domineering moment when Kiana saved the class president was seared in players' memories.

Back then, they had really believed the class president was going to die—

Only to be hit with a surprise twist that filled them with joy.

So even if they'd been wrong about a hundred death flags before,

They still slammed their tables, faces in hands, yelling:

"Kiana, well done!!"

Cyberangel: ZERO Exception, Seele, Everlasting Flames...

Bronya, Mei, Seele, and many others from Honkai Impact 3rd appeared one after another.

The penultimate highlight—Everlasting Flames.

Kiana and Himeko stood side by side,

Unleashing fire that could not be severed, burning through the Herrscher of Sentience—

And brought the concert to its climax.

At last—

Otto appeared center stage, clad in a white suit and mask.

"Hm, is it my cue?"

He muttered to himself:

"Seeing such emotionally stirring moments,

Feelings crashing and weaving into radiant blossoms—

Even I was captivated."

He gently clapped.

Clap, clap, clap.

"Let us fight... for all that is beautiful in this world."

[???]

[At least half this plot is because of Otto!!]

[Otto better show me a health bar!!]

"Everyone's as passionate as ever, I see."

Looking at the barrage of livestream comments on the nearby screen,

He remained unfazed.

"I understand your impatience.

"After all, even if Otto once trained Ragna and Bianca...

Even if Otto is a grandfather who tricks his granddaughter with 'cooking magic'...

Even if..."

Count it all—manga, main story, Valkyrie's Kitchen bonus skits—

Even if Otto hasn't taken center stage recently,

He's been woven into so much plot, both openly and secretly.

[I admit Otto did a few good things, but facts are facts—I still want to smash him.]

[Exactly. If Otto shows a health bar, I'm finishing him instantly—no chance to say last words.]

Seeing those comments—

"I believe, when the time comes, you'll still give him a chance to speak his last words."

So he said.

[No way! Absolutely not!]

[Go ahead, writer! I swear I'll skip that entire scene!!]

Each player, more firm than the last.
