The Herrscher of Origin, Elysia (Continued)

"Is Aili already gone? Honestly, I wanted to go ahead and prepare before waiting for you, but Misteln kept me in the dream world. But since you're so cute, I won't mind."

After checking himself again, Bai Ge nodded in satisfaction, then picked up the card on the table.

There was a message from Elysia inviting him to a banquet in the castle hall.

"It seems Aili wants to host today."

Bai Ge raised his hand and gently stroked the vivid image of the Pink Fairy Lady on the card, then pushed open the door and walked towards the hall.

This Eternity Castle truly lives up to its name as designed by Elysia; every detail exudes exquisite charm, just like the Fairy Elysia's description of the Celestial Music Kingdom.

Bai Ge longed to stop and spend the whole day admiring every corner of the castle, but he knew that the beautiful girl, as radiant as a blooming flower, was waiting for him.

Therefore, I quickened my pace and headed to the lobby.

And the moment Bai Ge pushed open the door to the hall.

"Hi~ You're finally here, bye-bye."

"Yes, I'm here, Aili."

In the magnificent hall adorned with colorful balloons and ribbons, the Fifteen Flame-Chasers gathered together.

Kevin and the others were dressed in well-fitting suits or evening gowns. Although everyone was a handsome man and a beautiful woman with exceptionally high looks, Bai Ge's gaze was only drawn to Elysia.

The girl in pink was wearing a dress with elements of crystal, magic, and plants. The white lining and gold accessories made her look elegant and innocent.

Winged bells floated behind her like flower girls, holding a strand of her long hair on the left and her veil on the right, along with crystal-like leg rings and adorable white high-heeled boots.

Beautiful, flawless, perfect, innocent, and adorable, Elysia at this moment can be described with every word in the world that represents beauty; just looking at her makes one feel happy.

Bai Ge's heart was stolen in an instant.

"Aili, you are so beautiful."

He just felt that his mouth was so clumsy.

He wanted to say more words of praise, but in the end he could only say such a simple sentence, because Bai Ge realized that no matter how gorgeous the words he came up with, they could not describe even a fraction of the beauty of the girl in front of him.

Moreover, he had already realized that Elysia was not wearing human clothes, but rather the robes of a god.

This Pink Fairy Lady is currently releasing a high concentration of Honkai Energy at the level of Herrscher, and the gorgeous dress she is wearing is the divine dress that only Herrscher can possess.

"So, my Aili is a Herrscher."

Bai Ge looked at Elysia in surprise, but his eyes were still full of tenderness and deep love. Not only had it weakened, but it was even getting stronger every second.

"That's great, you like me this way."

Elysia breathed a sigh of relief, her heart finally calming down a little, even though she knew very well that this White Youth in front of her, despite being a Herrscher, would never dislike her.

Even if Bai Ge's affection for her diminished by the slightest bit, Elysia felt that she would be so sad that she would cry.

However, the boy's eyes were full of affection and surprise, which did not need to be expressed in words. Elysia could clearly feel the love that seemed to melt her whole being.

"Thank you, Bai Bai, and thank you everyone for coming to our grand feast. Now let's enjoy the remaining beautiful moments before the Finality awakens."

Elysia snapped her fingers, and melodious music immediately began to play. Then, she flew to Bai Ge like an angel.

"Now, can you dance with me? My most, most, most favorite Bai Bai."

"Of course, this is my happiness, Aili."

Bai Ge grasped Elysia's hand without hesitation.

However, their dance steps did not land on the ground, but rather they stood in mid-air, watching the White Youth and pink-clad girl dancing in the air to the music.

At this moment, even the Flame-Chasers were stunned.

Everyone felt as if they were seeing a pair of angels dancing together in mid-air, so beautiful, so well-matched, and so enviable. Bai Ge and Elysia seemed to symbolize all that is beautiful.

"Is this Aili's secret? You are a Herrscher with humanity, fighting for humanity."

"Yes, and actually I was the first Herrscher to be born into this world. The moment I met Bai Bai, at the very beginning of our story, I was already a Herrscher."

Bai Ge and Elysia gaze at each other with deep affection.

They didn't need to deliberately coordinate with each other. Even though it was their first time dancing such an incredible aerial dance, every casual movement of the two of them was perfectly matched and harmonious.

"Actually, I'm still a little nervous. I'm thinking that if my goodwill towards Bai Bai decreases even slightly because I'm Herrscher, I might be so sad that I'll burst into tears on the spot."

"How could that be, Aili? No matter what you are like, you are perfect. To me, it doesn't matter whether you are human or Herrscher. After all, the one who has always been deeply infatuated with me is the girl named Elysia herself."

"Oh my, that's too unfair. Bai Bai, you're always like this. You can make my heart flutter with just a casual remark."

"But that's the truth, I love you, Aili."

"Mmm~ I love you too, Bai Ge."

Bai Ge embraced Elysia's waist, and the latter's hand pressed against his heart. Unable to suppress the surging love in their hearts any longer, they kissed each other.

My body became very hot, and my heartbeat was completely out of control.

The cheeks of the boys and girls were flushed.

Happiness seemed to be overflowing from the corners of her eyes.

As the music reached its climax, their relationship seemed to be elevated to a higher level as well.

Bai Ge and Elysia slowly descended from the sky.

This is the best time.

Even if it wasn't Bai Ge, he could no longer suppress his emotions; he felt as if his blood and even his soul were on fire.

He raised his hand to open the Imaginary Space, took out the ring box he had prepared beforehand, and prepared to give it to the girl in front of him.

However...

Just as Bai Ge was about to kneel down on one knee and, as he had fantasized countless times, put the ring on Elysia's finger.

"Sorry, bye-bye, I've already received it."

"What?"

Elysia removed her white lace gloves, revealing a ring already on the ring finger of her left hand. Bai Ge immediately recognized it as the ring he had prepared.

When I opened the ring box in my hand, it was indeed empty.

"I'm sorry, bye-bye, I just couldn't help it."

Elysia said apologetically, rubbing her cheek against the White Youth's hand in a conciliatory manner.

Bai Ge looked at Elysia helplessly, his feelings complicated and he didn't know what to say. His Pink Fairy was just too unpredictable.

She had already put the ring on the ring finger of her left hand, which meant that Aili 437 had said "I do".

Although there couldn't possibly be any other answer, Bai Ge still breathed a sigh of relief.

Because he cherishes the other person so much, even a one in a billion chance of rejection would make him extremely uneasy.

But...

"Aili, I was hoping to enjoy this feeling of unease and tension a little longer," Bai Ge said, both amused and exasperated.

As for how Elysia obtained the ring hidden in the Imaginary Space, Bai Ge immediately realized that he had lent out the core of the Herrscher of the Void several times in the past, so there were many opportunities.

"I'm sorry, Bai Bai. I really want you to put the ring on my finger, and I really want to hear you ask me if I will marry you, but... I can't do that."

"Aili?"

Bai Ge was stunned for a moment. Before he could understand what Elysia meant, he saw the girl take a step back.

"Bai Bai, do you know what my powers are?"

"I don't know, but I guess it must be a wonderful power that suits you," Bai Ge said confidently.

"Yes, I am the first Herrscher to descend upon the world, the Herrscher of Origin, and my power is to grant wishes."

Elysia's figure changed; her veil and the wings behind her transformed into a transparent wing-membrane shawl, with flower buds extending and intertwining to form a fishtail that reflected the starry sky behind her.

A golden staff adorned with pink crystals appeared in her hand. At that moment, the fairy girl seemed to become a goddess, even more beautiful and dazzling than the Herrscher of Finality.

"As long as I make a wish, the Honkai will grant it. I can make flowers bloom, make rain stop and the sky clear, make beauty last forever, and even... restore the humanity of the Herrscher."

"!!!"

Bai Ge's heart skipped a beat. He stared at Elysia in shock, never expecting that she was the one he had been searching for all along, the one who had freed the Herrscher from the shackles of Honkai.

"So leave it to me, Byakuya. I will make a wish to free all the Herrscher from the control of the Honkai, so that everyone can regain their humanity, choose their own future, and have the possibility of fighting to protect all that is good, just like us."

"What's the price? Tell me, Aili."

Bai Ge clenched his fists and asked nervously.

"..."

Elysia remained silent, only gazing at her tenderly.

But this silence is enough to answer the question.

"It's okay, Bye-bye, I'm... prepared."

However, just as Elysia raised her staff, preparing to make a wish to free all Herrscher from the shackles of Honkai,
