In Honkai, I Only Love Valkyries

I had actually been quite happy in that world.

And the child about to be born had filled me with anticipation.

"So, Mei..."

"Goodbye."

"No! I don't want any goodbye!" Mei cried sharply. Her eyes were bloodshot. As one with this world, an impulse surged up from the depths of her heart to keep Kiana here.

"Kiana! I only need you to stay! Stay and be my Kiana!"

The blizzard howled outside, while Mei's heart burned fiercely.

"I love how, after every mission, you kick open the dorm door and shout, 'Mei, I'm back!'"

"I love how you throw yourself at me and mumble in my ear that you're hungry!"

"I love stroking your hair while telling you, 'Welcome back'!"

"To me, you're not some Kaslana hero, nor are you some Second Herrscher clone. You're just a gentle, kind idiot I never want to let go of!"

"I won't abandon you, just as you've never abandoned me, so..."

"Kiana, please, stay."

Her emotional words gradually turned into choked sobs and pleading. Tears fell as Mei looked at Kiana, weeping so hard she could barely speak.

And Kiana could only stand silently before Mei.

The Greatsword of the Flames appeared in her hand.

The answer was obvious.

But Kiana was not happy. Her heart was unbearably heavy.

Kiana remembered back in Changkong City, Mei had also wanted to leave her like this. Mei's feelings then must have been exactly the same as hers now.

She stood there without moving.

Perhaps... she would have to fight Mei again.

Tch. So there really had been something off about Otto before. Had he foreseen this moment?

Mei's body swayed as if she might collapse at any moment. She lowered her head, tears falling at her feet, but she did not summon Judgement of Shamash.
