The golden light gradually faded, and from within it stepped out a girl with long pink hair, elf-like ears, wearing a Flame-Moth combat suit and holding a bow and arrow—a cute maiden like a fairy.
Kevin stared at the girl before him and slowly uttered two words: "Ely..."
"Hi~ Kevin, long time no see?" Elysia smiled gracefully. "Did you miss me?"
"Elysia... you..." Kevin looked at the companion who had died before his eyes, now reappearing, and for a moment didn't know what to say.
"Oh my, the sunny boy from back then has turned into this cold, icy figure?" Elysia teased. "Honestly, I kind of miss the old you."
Elysia suddenly shifted her tone. "You've worked hard all these years, Kevin." (When Elysia was revived, the system had also informed her of some matters regarding the current civilization.)
"But I didn't expect that right after being revived, I'd end up in such a boring place?" Elysia quickly returned to her usual demeanor. "I thought my resurrection would happen in some grand, spectacular scene."
"It's fine, Elysia. We'll leave this place soon." Kevin looked at the familiar girl before him, and the corner of his mouth, frozen for years by obsession, faintly curled into a hint of a smile.
[Elysia has joined the Livestream Room]
[Elysia: Oh my! So many pretty girls!]
[Elysia: Hi~ everyone, I'm Elysia, a beautiful maiden as radiant as a flower.]
[March 7th: This person is so narcissistic~ (muttering quietly)]
[Stelle: Right, right, even this gorgeous one here isn't that full of herself. (Also muttering quietly)]
[Lumine: We protagonists aren't that conceited either. (Still muttering quietly)]
[System: Don't think adding "muttering quietly" at the end means no one can hear you!]
[Elysia: Oh dear, it seems Elysia is being disliked~ Boohoo, so sad. Elysia crying.jpg]
[Lumine: !]
[Stelle: !]
[Stelle: Mom, I'm in love.]
[Lumine: Miss, would you be interested in adopting a pet~ Woof!]
[March 7th: Stelle, don't get tricked by the pretty big sister!]
[Paimon: Traveler, get a grip!]
At Schicksal headquarters, Otto asked the Void Archives beside him, "Void Archives, is that really the Flame-Chaser from ages past, Elysia?"
The Void Archives looked at the image Elysia had posted and replied, "It should be her. Even though it's just one picture, according to the system, she's already met with Kevin. Since Kevin had no reaction, that confirms she is indeed the Flame-Chaser who fought to protect humanity in ages past."
"So this Livestream Room can really resurrect people?"
"From the current situation, that seems to be the case."
Hearing the Void Archives' response, Otto fell silent. The office was left with only the sound of his fingers lightly tapping the desk.
[Next, playing the next video.]
[Homework!? There's Only One Day Left Until School Starts.]
(Video from 2023 Honkai Impact 3rd Spring Festival Gala)
The video began, showing the girls' dormitory in winter.
"Ugh~ (yawn)" Kiana was dozing off on the sofa.
Beside her, Bronya was focused on gaming. "Over here, over here, over here. Hurry up, Kiana, why are you still nodding off!?"
Kiana snapped awake. "Ah, almost died. Sorry about that."
Just then, the door suddenly opened. Pushing it open was their teacher—Murata Himeko. "Kiana, you're playing games again? How about doing some homework?"
Himeko pointed at the calendar hanging on the wall. "Take a look at the date yourself."
Following Himeko's finger, a blood-red "6" on the calendar caught their eyes—meaning their vacation was almost over.
!!!
The three little ones panicked!
"Crap! It's already been this long? Bronya thought it had only been a few days."
"Only one day left!? I still have a small chunk left undone!?"
"I only wrote my name on the cover!"
Just as the three were frantic, their saving angel descended.
"It's okay, Sister Bronya. I'm done, you can copy mine." The one who arrived was none other than their little angel, Seele.
Hope lit up in the three girls' eyes.
"Give it here, give it here! I want to copy first!"
Seeing the person who had shoved her aside and appeared out of nowhere, snatching Seele's homework, Bronya's face turned red-hot.
A hint of murderous intent flashed in Bronya's eyes. Just as Bronya was about to blow up at this person...
Suddenly, a gust of wind blew in, scattering Seele's homework everywhere. Everyone looked toward the source of the wind—the one who had blown away Seele's homework was none other than the Herrscher of Wind—"Wendy."
[Wendy: That's me?]
[Welt: This appearance... you're a Herrscher!]
[Theresa: Wendy, how did you become a Herrscher? Weren't you undergoing rehabilitation training in New Zealand?]
[Himeko: But it looks like Wendy isn't being controlled by the Honkai.]
[Welt: Could it be that another Herrscher fighting for humanity has been born?]
At that moment, at the New Zealand Schicksal branch, Wendy sat in her wheelchair, staring at herself on the screen, sinking into self-doubt.
"What's going on? I clearly want to take revenge on Schicksal, but why does the me in the video seem to get along so well with them?"
By this time, Wendy had already resolved to exact revenge on Schicksal, yet watching the video made her hesitate.
"Could it be that something will happen during this time to change my mind?"
Wendy couldn't figure it out, so she decided to stop thinking about it for now and just keep watching the video.
The video continued.
Himeko then pulled out a whip and warned the three little ones and Xing, "No copying homework. Anyone who doesn't finish will face severe punishment! You'll drink a whole semester's worth of the Academy Principal's favorite Bitter Gourd Juice!"
Hearing Himeko's words, the three little ones' faces instantly twisted in terror.
"A whole!"
"Semester's!"
"Bitter Gourd Juice!?"
[Theresa: Kiana, what do you mean by that! Bitter Gourd Juice is so delicious, why can't any of you appreciate it?]
[Fu Xuan: Bitter Gourd Juice? How could anyone in the world like something so bitter?]
[Hu Tao: Bitter Gourd Juice sounds more normal than Slime mixed with Qingxin.]
[Silver Wolf: Slime? You mean those gooey low-level monsters from games? People in your world actually eat that?]
[Xingqiu: Don't misunderstand, it's just that Xiangling always likes to use special ingredients to try new dishes.]
[Chongyun: That's right, it's just her personal hobby. It has nothing to do with us.]
[Xiangling: @Hu Tao @Xingqiu @Chongyun, everyone, come try the new dish. This time it's "Electro Slime Stir-fried with Jueyun Chili." I'm sure it'll give you that "crackling" feeling this time.]
[Hu Tao: ...]
[Xingqiu: ...]
[Chongyun: ...]
(Last night, I got a call from the world's cutest Theresa, so happy )
(The author will explain here about reviving Elysia. The author has seen many people think it's better to revive Mei, but the author feels that if Mei were revived and she and Kevin left the Sea of Quanta, Mei's research capabilities would be a bit overpowered for the current civilization. That's why I ruled her out and changed it to Elysia.)
