Jin Yan: Protect This Beautiful World Forever
"Hmph, if you want to lift the restrictions, you'll have to get Griseo's forgiveness and consent first."
"If Griseo doesn't agree..."
"Gurgle..."
Vita's momentum instantly deflated.
"I know, I'll apologize to Griseo properly..."
"Friendly reminder: maybe if you ask the little Vitas to plead for you, Griseo will agree?"
Xia Ling could barely contain her smile, "After all, Griseo is still quite soft-hearted."
"Now, Miss Vita will have to pay child support, won't she?"
After ending her conversation with Vita, Xia Ling muttered to herself as she left the museum.
"Child support? I think that's already cheap enough for her." Kiana scoffed. "Griseo is still kind enough to avoid the Herrschers of the Elysian Realm meeting Vita directly..."
"However, I reckon that once we've set up the portal between the moon and Fruos, poor Miss Vita won't be able to sleep soundly anymore, will she?"
"Hopefully, she won't suddenly appear in my dreams and run into Aponia or something like that..."
Chapter Fifty-Four: Words Spoken: To Protect This Beautiful Thing Forever
After the incident in Fruos was completely settled, Xia Ling and Kiana no longer needed to stay in Fruos.
After all, although the little Vitas may look small, they are actually fully qualified as city managers.
With Vita and Griseo staying here to help, both the reconstruction of Fruos and the repair of the Ark should be on the agenda soon.
As for the "door" leading to Fruos that Xia Ling plans to create... it will probably require more preparation time.
After all, this was the first time Xia Ling had ever created a "gate" of this magnitude, and she would probably need to use a considerable amount of her Finality Authority as an aid.
Meanwhile, when Xia Ling left Fruos, she also learned about the aftermath of the Salt Snow Holy City from Vita.
Well, Vita did get a really bad beating.
Because... even though Su didn't pull Fu Hua's projection to Fruos, Fu Hua's real body was also pulled to Salt Snow Holy City by Rabbit.
Out of humanitarian considerations, Little Ther did want to stop it at the time, but... she really couldn't find a good reason, so she could only silently light incense for Vita.
As for the rest of the plot, it's pretty much the same as the original work. It's worth mentioning that after expending a lot of effort to send Fu Hua out of the World Bubble, Vita already seemed a bit overwhelmed when facing Seele her Herrscher of Death form.
After being defeated by Seele, he had to rush to Fruos's set as quickly as possible, making him arguably the hardest worker in this incident.
As for Earth... after Xia Ling successfully returned to the moon, she immediately activated the body that Theresa had hidden in Judah, and started banging on the "coffin lid" like a zombie.
Then, Theresa, unaware of what was happening, released him from Judah.
After spending more than half an hour explaining her achievements over the past period, Theresa was completely dumbfounded.
"Ah?!"
"You mean, we were just about to hold a meeting to discuss countermeasures against that mysterious So and Vita, and you've already taken care of So?"
"To be precise, it's not just about solving it."
Xia Ling slightly shifted her eyes away.
"In fact, I have already mastered all of Sa's powers."
"Pfft—cough cough cough cough..."
The poor Archbishop of Schicksal almost choked to death on a mouthful of bitter melon juice.
"... You bastard, come with me!"
Theresa grabbed Xia Ling's arm aggressively.
"What, what are you going to do?"
Xia Ling subconsciously shrank back. After all, she had just been scolded by the cocoon for a long time, and judging from Theresa's attitude, it seemed that she would not escape the same fate.
"Of course you'll come to the meeting with me and explain everything you've been up to these past few days!"
Theresa said irritably.
"What, do you want me to clean up this mess for you?"
"Ah, I see... That really startled me."
Xia Ling immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
"I thought they were going to throw me into the basement."
"?"
Theresa's lips twitched, then she pinched Xia Ling's soft cheeks and pulled them into a comical shape.
"Why do I get the feeling... you seem quite excited about it?"
"You little glutton, I was supposed to punish you, but you weren't actually enjoying it, were you?"
"Hmph, it's not because I miss Theresa after not seeing her for several days!"
"Being arrogant or haughty isn't popular anymore~"
Theresa chuckled and then gave Xia Ling a light peck on the cheek.
"So, it's work time now, so get to work. As for everything else... we'll talk about it tonight."
"I've never seen you enjoy your work this much when you're in the office!"
During the video conference held at the Schicksal Headquarters, Xia Ling explained the recent situation to everyone who was just as bewildered as Theresa.
The meeting quickly decided on a support plan for Fruos. Xia Ling's "door" would definitely have to be built on the moon, since Earth is not yet able to withstand the power of the Finality. Although doing so would require certain conditions for transporting supplies, but... don't forget that Xia Ling's specialty is opening doors.
At the same time, projects such as the construction of a lunar base and the development of space travel were quickly put on the agenda under Xia Ling's promotion.
After all, Xia Ling already knew the subsequent plot points in advance. Regardless of whether the plot changes later, the main theme of the story is undoubtedly moving towards space.
Therefore, while vigorously promoting the development of these space projects, Xia Ling also proposed another plan.
Centered on the Thousand Worlds Layered and the Star Gate, supplemented by the Finality Authority and Xia Ling's own "gate" power, and combined with her abilities related to wishes...
She plans to artificially replicate a "Star Rail".
Although she hasn't figured out a way to cross the Imaginary Barrier at the outer edge of the solar system yet, according to the current storyline, Kiana could reach the level of a Commander once she fully masters the power of the cocoon.
So, maybe then they can figure out a way to get this pirated train out of the solar system.
Of course, it is also essential to relax appropriately outside of work.
Especially for someone like Xia Ling, who has a "large harem," her daily life can be described as quite "colorful."
Little E's ever-growing knowledge base, Xia Ling is working quite hard, both in the data world after entering the dream and in the real world.
So one day, the soft-spoken Xia Ling embraced Theresa, who was nestled against her chest, and looked out at the night sky.
She would occasionally ponder the meaning of life, the end of the universe, and the profound significance of her coming into this world.
While still somewhat confused, she quickly came to the answer.
Didn't I already know... that I was fighting to protect the beauty in my heart and the beauty of this world?
Turning this beautiful story into a perfect one... Now, looking back, I think I've already succeeded, haven't I?
A satisfied smile appeared on Xia Ling's face, and then... an unhealthy flush appeared on her face.
Feeling Theresa's restless fingers begin to move again, Xia Ling let out a long breath, a hint of allure rising in her eyes.
Well, that's the end of my "wise man's time." It's time to start enjoying the good times after the victory.
Feeling the softness in her hands, and her true form sleeping on Kiana's chest on the moon, and Elysia and Little E waiting for her in the Elysian Realm after she enters her dreams...
This beautiful thing... I really should continue to protect it, shouldn't I?
Epilogue to Volume 10: A New Journey
"Xia Ling... please, please?"
The Elysia -haired fairy's arm sank into the deep, soft cleavage of the black-haired girl, and she held the girl's arm, shaking it and rubbing her face against it.
Unfortunately, several years have passed, and Xia Ling is no longer the cute girl who could be easily teased by Elysia. Now, she has an unbreakable resistance to Elysia's coquettishness.
[After the group walk] Ba Jiuwu# Ba Linsi & Lingwu said that she had touched every part of Elysia's body before, so how could she be so easily captured by such temptation?
"Is it really not possible...? If Xia Ling goes out alone without me, the lovely Miss Fairy will be very sad?"
A delicate hand, encased in a white silk glove, held Xia Ling's cheek, forcing the girl to look into her eyes. A pitiful look appeared in Elysia's eyes.
"Really... it won't work?"
"..."
The black-haired girl, who had been keeping a straight face, began to feel her cheeks gradually warm up under such intimate gazes...
Then, like a deflated pufferfish, it suddenly went limp.
It seems that the impenetrable defense had no effect whatsoever on Pink Fairy Lady.
"Alright, alright... I'll take you with me..."
Xia Ling, with her face buried in Elysia's chest, savored the familiar fragrance and mumbled something.
"Let me make this clear first: even if I bring you along, you can't use your own body to get on the train. You have to move around on my body, just like before."
"Hey~ Is Xia Ling worried that the adorable Miss Fairy's charm is too high and might accidentally attract beautiful girls from other planets? Jealous Little Xia Ling is also cute!"
"No way! Who would care about you!"
Suppressing her urge to bite into Elysia's soft, white flesh and retaliate, Xia Ling rubbed herself hard against Elysia's chest.
"I'm just worried that your body won't be able to adapt to the train, which might cause problems when passing through the imaginary barrier... After all, according to the information that Cocoon told me later, the body you reconstructed using Cocoon's powers might indeed have some inexplicable bugs outside."
"But if it's consciousness, there's no problem. It can be easily smuggled out, as the Void Archive has already proven..."
"No need to rush to explain, you know Miss Fairy will always believe you."
Elysia smiled and pinched Xia Ling's reddened earlobe, saying, "I was just teasing you, you know?"
"Hey! You've been doing this for years, aren't you tired of it yet?!"
"My adorable Little Xia Ling, I could tease her for a lifetime and never get tired of it!"
"Thud—"
The sudden sound of the door opening interrupted their tender moment.
At that moment, Little E, who had suddenly pushed open the door, wore a complex expression, probably because...
My wife is such a good-natured couple, and now she's my wife too. How embarrassing!
However, after spending several years together, Little E had gotten used to the two of them being so affectionate, or rather, she was even more clingy than Elysia when she was being coquettish.
"Okay, okay, stop hugging me, Xia Ling. Theresa just messaged me saying you need to come and get ready. We need to prepare for our last meeting before we leave."
"Okay, coming right away~"
Xia Ling waved to Little E, who had deliberately closed the door, then looked up at the smiling Ai Elysia.
"You haven't forgotten how to possess me, have you, Elysia?"
"Of course, rather than saying that the memories from that time are among the most precious memories Miss Fairy has ever had, right?"
"In conclusion, we can basically conclude that Welt and the Void Archive because they went to a wider part of the universe—"
At the Schicksal Headquarters, Theresa's voice echoed in the conference room. Over the years, her body had gradually grown from being shorter than Xia Ling to being slightly taller than Xia Ling. She tapped on the concept art on the screen.
"It was a few years ago that I came into contact with Kiana and Xia Ling. The organization that called itself the Memory of Light described the world outside the Imaginary Number Barrier."
"Of course, we don't need to worry that Mr. Welt was coerced by the Void Archive or went to the universe against his will. After all, within the scope of the cocoon, even if Mr. Welt chooses to commit suicide, I can control the cocoon to bring his soul back."
