"Don't worry, Sa won't harm those Little Vita. As new 'seeds,' they're always on that person's whitelist..."

"Not to mention..."

Vita suddenly leaned close to Griseo: "I sense that lovely Griseo seems to be in some trouble?"

Griseo's expression visibly turned fierce.

That's awful, I'm about to glare at him. jpg

"Oh dear, don't be so angry, Little Vita, I'm just..."

Before Vita could finish speaking, the scroll in Xia Ling's hand seemed to begin to vibrate violently, as if something inside was trying to come out.

It seems Cosmo has had enough... Xia Ling smiled slightly.

Anyway, the final battle is about to begin, and releasing them now seems to have depleted their energy reserves...

The desire to see some fun quickly took over, and then, due to Xia Ling's "accident," the scroll, which she hadn't been holding properly, fell to the ground and unfurled on its own.

A figure whose face was obscured appeared in mid-air in an instant. Then, the figure twisted and transformed into the appearance of Cosmo.

This usually taciturn boy actually uttered a sentence the very first second he appeared in the "real world".

"... Who is Vita?"

"Amo! Calm down!"

Xia Ling quickly grabbed Cosmo to prevent Miss Vita, who had just been flirting with Griseo, from becoming Vita's snack.

The once lively Miss Vita now obediently lowered her profile and tried to shrink back.

"Ko, Cosmo...?"

Fortunately, the kind-hearted Griseo helped Vita out of the predicament.

"Long time no see, Griseo..."

Seeing that there seemed to be no chance to teach Vita a small lesson, Cosmo stopped persisting and turned to look at the now graceful and beautiful Griseo, a hint of emotion appearing in his eyes.

"You're already... about as tall as me."

"Pfft—" Griseo couldn't help but laugh, "After all, fifty thousand years have passed, but Cosmo is still exactly the same as I remember..."

"So, Cosmo, do I... feel like I've grown up now?"

After the initial excitement subsided, Cosmo returned to his previous taciturn demeanor. After carefully examining the object from head to toe, Cosmo's gaze settled on the lightsaber in Griseo's hand.

"Handsome..."

Chapter 51 Xia Ling is being unzipped; Kevin has already been unzipped to the desktop.

After exchanging a few words with Cosmo voluntarily withdrew.

After all, the rest time before the battle is precious, and he doesn't want to monopolize Griseo for too long.

And the next one to appear... was little Griseo.

After all, she was also curious to see what she would be like when she grew up.

But...

"Huh? Griseo was this cute even when she was little?"

Seeing Cosmo return, replaced by a Griseo Lily, Vita suddenly felt like she was back in the game.

"Wow, it's so small and blue, so cute..."

"Hey! Vita, stay away from that other me!"

Big Griseo quickly pulled Little Griseo behind her.

"You'd better behave yourself, or you'll be quiet once Aponia comes out and puts a discipline on you."

Before she could even unleash her Griseo, Vita was speechless as Xia Ling grabbed her by the back of her clothes and dragged her behind her.

"If you can't even beat Su, what if Aponia gives you a 'please' and you can't even fight back? You'll become the biggest source of amusement."

However, even after spending only a short time together, Vita's striking "color" still seemed to have a certain impact on little Griseo.

"My other self, please don't play with that older sister from earlier, okay?"

Big Griseo knelt down and gave a warning to her younger self.

She didn't want to wake up one day to find that seven Little Vita had become fourteen Little Vita.

"It doesn't matter."

Little Griseo shook her head. "If I run into that older sister again, I'll..."

"The all-knowing paint will tear the canvas apart!"

Seeing the little Griseo had become so pitiful, the older Griseo couldn't help but cover her face.

"I almost forgot, when I was little I was also easily influenced by the colors others wore..."

It has to be said that seeing her younger self imitating others, Griseo suddenly felt a strange sense of shame. Fortunately, her control over her abilities was different from before. With a gentle wave of her paintbrush, she stripped away the colors that belonged to Vita from little Griseo.

Of course, this action also gave little Griseo a chance to see the color on her other self.

"Another me, big, colorful, very beautiful... but, very lonely?"

Little Griseo, now back to normal, tilted her head slightly.

"So, is this the color you're happy with?"

Having traveled alone for so long, Griseo felt more anxiety than loneliness.

She often doubted whether she had done enough, whether she had successfully completed the Project Ark mission... In her solitude, there were no one to answer these questions.

Therefore, when she sees her former companions, her first question is often an unconscious desire for their approval.

"Hmm, it's a beautiful color, I really like it..."

Little Griseo nodded obediently. "Will I become like this in the future?"

"Yes, of course, but perhaps your color won't be the same as mine."

Recalling the current state of the Elysian Realm that Xia Ling told her about, Big Griseo touched her childhood self and smiled.

"Now that you have begun to explore the world beyond the Elysian Realm, then... one day, you will also gain your own color."

"Ahem, although I didn't mean to interrupt your reminiscing, but... the opportunity you've been waiting for is finally here, isn't it?"

Vita's voice suddenly came from behind Xia Ling.

"Alright, let's catch up later."

Upon hearing Vita's reminder, Xia Ling immediately perked up.

"Kiana, you handle the situation yourself. I'll buy you enough time until you're ready."

"Xia Ling, don't force yourself."

Kiana squeezed Xia Ling's palm.

"After all, this isn't your true form. Although you can project a portion of your power, it's insufficient to contend against a cocoon that's only a tenth the size of it..."

"Don't worry, that's the 'Sayonara,' not the Cocoon of Finality.'"

Xia Ling smiled reassuringly.

"The power of the cocoon is virtually limitless, but the power of the succubus is finite. As long as I control the degree of her consumption and make her pay enough sunk costs... she will not be willing to give up."

As she spoke, Xia Ling looked at Griseo.

"Griseo, give me a hand and get me up there."

As Xia Ling retrieved the scroll, a phantom image of a scepter appeared in her hand.

What? You're saying projection can't use too many powers? But that's the origin!

"Okay, leave it to me!"

"I will paint the future with my own hands!"

The seven-color paints condensed into a rainbow-colored path leading to the void with the gentle waving of II Liuba Lingjiu Reimu Grexiu.

Xia Ling nodded slightly, and with a gentle push of her toes, she lightly jumped up.

Although she could use spatial powers or the powers of the door to get up there, due to the fragility of Xia Ling's projection, while she could ensure that her positioning was correct, she could not guarantee that the projection would not be affected by the extremely unstable spatial state at this moment.

What if the plane crashes before it even reaches Suo... I'll probably become a laughing stock for the next few years.

Meanwhile, on the distant moon, Kiana suddenly opened her eyes.

She glanced at Xia Ling, whose consciousness was still stuck in Fruos's, and then her figure vanished instantly, appearing on the empty moon.

Then, she gently raised her hand, following the coordinates transmitted by the projection connected to her consciousness...

"Biu~"

Although it was just a light strike, the space around Kiana became somewhat unstable due to the surge of the Finality Authority. If Kiana hadn't been using her power to stabilize the surrounding space, the alarm bells of New Atra and the lunar base would probably have already been ringing.

Having done all this, she shifted her consciousness back to Fruos, unaware that...

Kiana felt as if her attack was being subtly controlled and guided by something, constantly correcting its direction automatically.

And the source of this pull... is a giant cocoon of light swaying in the moon.

On the other side, in the enormous void above Fruos.

A splash of paint spread wildly in all directions, as if spilled on the ground, leaving a foothold for the three of them.

Meanwhile, the "God of Venus" in the Sea of Quantum has slowly peeked out a corner of his body.

"Wow... how did she become like this!"

Looking at the massive, flesh-colored figure of the three phases, Vita's voice was full of disgust.

"Even though I know this is just a part of her [tentacles], it's just so against my aesthetic Little Vita!"

Is it really okay to insult your former boss like that...?

Xia Ling said speechlessly, "However, this thing... never mind, I feel there's someone who's better at handling this."

Xia Ling flicked her wrist, and the painting in her hand instantly materialized again, this time... revealing a figure with white hair and blue eyes.

"... As a memory entity, I cannot create a gigantic World Serpent like the one who wielded the Finality Authority."

The seemingly ordinary man, who was even carrying a baseball bat, glanced at the enormous Suo, then turned to look at Xia Ling.

Based on his understanding of girls, this girl probably thought she was playing Pokémon, and when she threw out the scroll, she was probably thinking, "I've decided, Kevin!"

"It's alright, aren't karmic demons similar?"

Xia Ling tilted her head obediently.

"I just can't do anything with you..."

Kevin nodded slightly to Griseo and Kiana beside him, then took a step forward, and the power of the Chimera began to emerge from his body.

Sa:???

Didn't I see only three people come up? Who is this ridiculously strong guy?

Chapter 52 Cocoon: You like to kidnap my daughter, huh? I'll tear all your power out of the ground!

When Earth crossed the Finality, as a being of equal magnitude, So was also secretly watching the crossing of the third planet.

Compared to the failure that befell their own home planet, the other party's leap forward... was clearly perfect.

That is why, if she could intercept Xia Ling's projection, who holds 20% of the Finality Authority, here... she is confident that she can find a way to optimize her underlying architecture before the next hundred million years arrive.

What? You're asking why she doesn't try to take advantage of Kiana? First of all, Kiana's projection source isn't her real body, and this body wasn't created by her... She's not that presumptuous to blindly touch the representative of the cocoon.

If this leads to being targeted by the cocoon, it would be a huge loss.

As for Xia Ling... she doesn't have many powers, so she probably isn't valued by Jian that much...?
