Eden: Elysia, Let's Be Best Friends for Life!! (Continued)

"Hehe, I'm not that old, Bai Ge. I'm only 18 this year. Ah, that's a secret."

"That's not what I meant. I just wanted to say that Eden, you are indispensable to this era."

Bai Ge cupped the singer's face in her hands, her movements as delicate as if she were touching the most beautiful work of art in the world.

His words were neither exaggerated nor untrue.

Bai Ge clearly understood just how dazzling this Flame-Chasers with the [Golden] inscription was. Eden was already the symbol of this era, the most magnificent jewel in this civilization.

Therefore...

"I will protect everything about you, Eden. With me here, no one can destroy your stage, not even the Herrscher of Finality can steal your brilliance."

Bai Ge solemnly promised.

The stage of Eden is one of the things he absolutely must protect; he will never allow this celestial star of art to fall and dim.

"Thank you, my dear Bai. In exchange, as long as I stand on this stage, I will sing for you, dance for you, and shine for you."

Eden raised his hand and gently stroked the boy's cheek, feeling that the boy was more dazzling than any of the gems in his collection.

Her singing voice, like Elysia's love, was something that could be selflessly shared with everyone, but now, Eden is willing to show favoritism for Bai Ge.

After taking advantage of the opportunity, Eden was pleasantly surprised to find that his fear had disappeared, and he felt even more motivated.

And...

Eden: (I have a feeling my moment of glory is about to arrive~ Aili, first of all, I'm sorry, put on your hat, let's be best friends for life.)

Aili: "Hey Qiu! Who, who's eyeing my Bai Bai! If you've got the guts, come out and fight me one-on-one!"

After that, Bai Ge went to the room next door.

Elysia and the others were waiting inside.

"In short, that's it. I'm certain that Himiko will become the Flame Herrscher today. Everyone, prepare for battle."

"Hmph! Now that we know who the Herrscher is, why not just kill them? With our strength, we can Decimation even ten Herrscher, let alone one."

The hot-tempered old man, Kalpas, clenched his fist tightly, and scorching flames ignited from it.

"Hey, Kalpas, stop right now! The air conditioning in this room can't keep up with the temperature of your flames. Kevin, quickly use your ice to cool Kalpas down! And Bai Ge, your performance outfit is so beautiful, let me take a picture~"

Elysia raised her hand to fan herself, then leaned close to Bai Ge and said.

In addition to Sakura, there were also four Flame Chasers present. Add to that Bai Ge, an exceptional bug, and it's true that Kalpas was right when he said that ten Herrscher could Decimation.

"Kalpas, you don't understand. Bai Ge's goal is to save Himiko, not to kill her," the Pink Fairy Lady added.

"Yes, just like Aili said, and although it's a pity, we can't stop Himiko from becoming Herrscher."

"Huh? Why is that?"

Kevin asked, puzzled. In his opinion, since they knew who the Herrscher's original body was, there were many ways to prevent that person from becoming the Herrscher.

For example, locking them in a secret room filled with Soul Steel, or soaking them in a pool of Honkai Energy serum, etc. In short, as long as Honkai Energy can be completely isolated, then it can prevent the other party from becoming Herrscher.

"Foolish! Even if Himiko doesn't become the Seventh Herrscher, someone else will. If the target is someone we know, we can prepare in advance and minimize the damage."

Bai Ge rolled his eyes at the white-haired husky.

If someone other than Himiko were to become Herrscher, who knows when and where they might appear? After all, she is the Seventh Herrscher!

Her Great Honkai will affect an entire continent!

A Great Honkai would kill at least tens of millions of people!

"Okay, I see, I understand!"

Kevin immediately nodded and gave a thumbs up.

"As expected of you, Bai Ge, you've thought of everything so thoroughly."

"That goes without saying. But Kevin, you should spend less time with Sue in the future. You need to exercise your thinking ability when your external brain isn't working."

Bai Ge offered his criticism and advice.

All I can say is that Kevin truly lives up to his reputation as the source of Kaslana's bloodline; despite having an external brain, this husky is utterly incapable of thinking for himself.

Moreover, after Bai Ge made up for so many regrets, Kevin is still a sunny and cheerful young man who trains and fights Honkai Beast every day, showing no signs of being withdrawn or obsessed.

Yeah, that's fine...

"... Bai Ge, I object to doing this."

Just then, Sakura, who had been silent, spoke up.

Everyone immediately showed expressions of surprise.

It wouldn't be surprising if anyone present opposed Bai Ge, even though Elysia occasionally disagreed with Bai, but it would be quite unusual for Sakura to voice her opposition.

This fox-eared girl has always been the most obedient woman to Bai Ge, never going west if she's told to go east, her loyalty is off the charts... although she might be ranked behind Aponia now.

"Oh? Sakura, what are you trying to say?"

"I'm sorry, but now that it's confirmed that Himiko will be the Seventh Herrscher, I think the best course of action is to cancel the concert, evacuate the crowd, keep an eye on her, and subdue her the moment she becomes the Herrscher. This way, the losses will be minimized."

"Hmm, that's definitely in Sakura's style."

Bai Ge nodded approvingly.

Although she follows the path of an assassin who kills with a single blow, Sakura is actually very cautious and conservative. In her opinion, Himiko to such a large city with such a large population is a bad choice.

It's worth noting that a large number of people gathered in the area because Eden was going to hold a concert.

Australia of just over 25 million.

But now it's about to reach 35 million.

This shows just how terrifyingly popular Eden was.

Bringing Himiko to this place under such circumstances, in Sakura's view, wouldn't that be nothing short of sending the Honkai to their Honkai? When the Great Honkai erupts, how many of these 35 million people will survive? Probably not even 100,000!

Therefore, she believed that the crowd should be evacuated immediately, or Himiko be taken to a secluded place.

"Sakura, your idea is right, dagakotouwaru!"

Bai Ge crossed her arms to indicate her refusal.

"Why, why?" Sakura was stunned.

"Because what you said is the safest method, but it's not the method that maximizes profits."

"..." x4

Bai Ge's words left all four people present stunned.

Elysia stared at him in disbelief, almost thinking that Bai had been possessed by some bastard high-ranking official.

The next second, Bai Ge came to Sakura's side, raised his hand and gently touched the fox-eared girl's head and her pink fox ears.

"I'm sorry, Sakura, but I'm not looking for the safest method, I'm looking for the most perfect method. Trust me, this time we won't let anyone die, and we can also use this opportunity to boost the morale of the human side."

Bai Ge said apologetically but confidently.

Although Sakura's method can most effectively reduce casualties, there will still be minor losses in the end. However, Bai craves is perfection where even these minor losses do not exist.

First: Don't let anyone die.

Second: Save Himiko's life.

Third: Boost human morale.

Bai Ge's pursuit of victory lies in having all three!

"... You're such a greedy person. Alright, in that case, Sakura will do as you say..."

Sakura gave a helpless, bitter smile. This savior in front of her was far too greedy, wanting everything. How cool!

Since Bai Ge had said so, she chose to believe and obey, after all, this young man had never disappointed her.

Sakura believed that this was a pipe dream in the eyes of outsiders, a perfect probability that only exists on the other side of the decimal point, but if it were Bai Ge, she would definitely be able to grasp it!

"Hahaha! Bai Ge, you're right. This time I'll follow your command and show Honkai my power. But... if anyone dies, I'll show you my power."

"Bai Ge, just tell us what you need us to do."

Kalpas and Kevin were also in high spirits and full of fighting spirit.

No one dies or anything like that.

Kalpas simply felt that Bai Ge's words suited his taste, while Kevin thought he was incredibly cool, not pursuing the best, but pursuing a perfect savior.

Seeing Bai Ge's confident and greedy appearance, the Flame-Chasers couldn't help but feel admiration and were willing to follow in his footsteps.

"Tell us about our mission. It's getting late, so stop hiding it from us."

"Um, well... to be honest, no."

"Huh?" x4

The four of them were stunned again.

"In my prediction, I alone would be able to handle the Seventh Great Honkai without taking any damage, but I brought you all here just in case, because Sakura likes to be 'safe'."

Bai Ge winked in Ying's direction. His meaning was clear: we're not getting cocky, we're very steady.
