Elysia: Decisiveness Might Get You Nowhere, but Hesitation Guarantees Defeat

After parting ways with Kevin and his group, Zhu Yufeng and Elysia walked together in the amusement park at midday, discussing where to go next.

The afternoon sun in spring, combined with the gentle breeze, is quite pleasant.

"How about we go to the aquarium next?" Elysia suggested. "We can come back later."

"Yeah, that's right." Zhu Yufeng glanced at the Ferris wheel in the distance; he already knew what Elysia was planning.

The Ferris wheel at sunset...

Headquarters of the Fire Moth, Spiral Workshop.

Vill-V frantically messed up her hair; they wanted the chance to go on a date with Yu Feng too!

However, they are different from others. If they try to manage their time reasonably, each person will have very little time on average, and the one who is going crazy about this right now is Evil.

"I can't take it anymore! Why can they go out and play with Yu Feng? When will this damn censorship end?!" Evil said indignantly.

Then, he switched to a calm tone, like Expert: "Evil, don't worry, it will be done soon. We will soon be able to create the Third Divine Key, the Key of Judgment, the Seven Thunders of Purification. Although the order in which the Divine Key were created is different from the previous life, the Seven Thunders of Purification is the fastest to create compared to the other Divine Key."

"Speaking of which, are we going to make the Seven Thunders of Purification again this time? After all, we were still quite inexperienced when we made this Divine Key in our last life. If you ask me, what I'm most satisfied with are its bullet form and lipstick form," the Conductor said.

"Hmm... I think we can add other forms to the Seven Thunders of Purification this time, since Yu Feng's usual weapon is a spear." The Magician shrugged.

The enraged Evil had calmed down, and she changed her tone. "This time we need to find a way to maximize the benefits of the Third Herrscher's Herrscher Core. After all, we all know the current situation. No matter what we do, Yu Feng won't give up on his idea, so..."

"This time, it's our turn to save him!" the Scholar said.

"Hmph..." Evil picked up a design drawing. "The Key of Blankness, Mei's idea is indeed perfect. If this special Divine Key is made earlier this time, it will definitely achieve good results."

"However, if the Divine Key achieves significant results, the Fusion Warrior Project might have difficulty passing the council's review, right?" the Conductor said.

Evil sneered, "I have no intention of creating the Key of Blankness now. After all, only when humans are severely beaten will they understand their own status and want to seek a way to surpass this weak body."

"Evil, do you intend to..."

"There's still room for improvement in the Key of Blankness that Mei created. However, I won't have any intention of creating this Divine Key until the Seventh Herrscher burns down the entire Australia continent." As she spoke, Evil put the design drawing into the shredder. Anyway, she had already memorized everything that needed to be memorized, so she didn't need the design drawing at all.

Mobius's laboratory.

"Klein, how many days has Yu Feng and the others been gone?" Mobius asked while flipping through the experimental report.

"It's only been two days, Doctor. They'll probably stay in Puliya City for a few more days before they return," Klein said speechlessly. What's wrong with the Doctor?

However, in the last couple of days, the doctor seems to have become interested in something new, and he has started to conduct more experiments.

Mobius put down the experimental report in her hand, frowned and thought for a while. She had perfected the Fusion Warrior surgery. If Yu Feng came to her now to perform the surgery, it was not impossible to start. However, she still had to go back to the original question: how to deal with the council of the Fire Moth.

"Heh... Forget it, when did I ever care about these things?" Mobius chuckled self-deprecatingly. The Fusion Warrior Project... Heh, with the Seventh Herrscher's flames ravaging Australia, and before humanity realizes that it has no chance of defeating the Herrscher with its current power, she will not reveal anything about the Fusion Warrior Project.

As for Mei, let her be. After all, her Fusion Warrior Project, which she developed independently without the help of her past life, cannot compare to that of her predecessor who possessed memories of her previous life.

She no longer cared about anything.

In her previous life, as Zhu Yufeng's collaborator, Mobius watched him climb the ladder to godhood step by step. Mobius knew better than anyone how much he paid for it, and she believed more than anyone that the world was not worth Zhu Yufeng doing that.

"The sinking of civilization cannot be stopped, and he should absolutely not perish with this civilization," Mobius thought.

She participated in the Finality battle and even doubted whether her rebirth ability could be effective against the Finality blow. She knew that the Finality was invincible, so since her rebirth, she has been very negative about fighting the Honkai.

"No... maybe it would be possible if we started the Stigmata Project earlier... But forget it, Yu Feng won't agree. This time, we still need to find a way to bring those old fogies down and take control of the situation."

Zhu Yufeng couldn't do that because he didn't know where to find replacements for the councilors. Mobius had plenty of connections, so all she needed to worry about was that the councilors' security measures were at the very top level of this civilization. Unless the Fusion Warrior intervened, the assassination would be almost impossible.

"Unless, it's Xila." Mobius thought of the Fallen Angel who had obediently followed behind Zhu Yufeng.

Actually, Qianjie is also an option, but Qianjie Tribulations is too unpredictable, and is that even considered an assassination? Does killing everyone without anyone seeing it equate to a successful assassination?

That would only expose the fact that the assassin was Qianjie.

"Let's ask Yu Feng when he gets back if he knows where Xila is now."

The scene shifts back to Puliya City.

"Wow, what an adorable pendant! Feng, let's buy this!" Elysia said, linking arms with Zhu Yufeng.

Zhu Yufeng initially tried to resist, but... on the one hand, Elysia's attitude was very firm this time, and on the other hand, trying to pull her hand away would inevitably lead to touching something...

There was nothing I could do; I had to accept my fate.

Elysia can actually do things that Lilith can't, after all, Lilith... is probably about the same age as Pardo, maybe even a little younger...

It was truly a breath of fresh air from Previous Civilization.

Hua doesn't count; that doesn't even exist, so it's not within the scope of this discussion.

Since we've given up struggling, there's no need to think about anything else. We'll just take it one step at a time and do what we need to do.

For example, if Elysia thinks a pendant is cute, you absolutely can't just say you'll buy it. You have to take a serious look at it and at least let Elysia know that you're not just going through the motions.

If it's Lilith, then it's a different story. In this kind of situation, you should always trust Lilith, since his improved emotional intelligence comes from Lilith.

The two finished visiting the aquarium together, and Zhu Yufeng once again complained in his mind about the setting that Elysia was the daughter of a god. So, since they were all daughters of gods, they were naturally welcomed by all things, right?

The fish ignored the zookeeper and all swam towards Elysia...

Are you sure he didn't go to another film set?

"Feng, you've been looking at me ever since just now... Hmm, although I'm happy, I'm also a little shy..."

Zhu Yufeng: "..."

No, he was just trying to see if Elysia was glowing.

I accompanied Elysia to the aquarium, and then we watched a movie starring Eden. By the time we returned to the amusement park, it was already quite late.

Elysia looked up at the dusky sky. "It seems time is running out."

Zhu Yufeng glanced at the setting sun, handed his ticket to the ticket inspector, and boarded the Ferris wheel with Elysia.

"Maple, when you rode the Ferris wheel with Lilith before, did Lilith tell you the legend of the Ferris wheel?" Elysia asked.

"Ah, is that the legend?" Zhu Yufeng rested her chin on her hand, looking at the sunset outside the Ferris wheel. "I heard that every couple who rides the Ferris wheel will eventually break up, but if they kiss when the Ferris wheel reaches its highest point, they can stay together forever."

He's not in a relationship with Elysia or Lilith, so why does he care about these rumors?

Why is Elysia bringing this up? Wait, could it be that she's thinking of...? No, it can't be that...

"After Lilith finished telling this legend, what did she do with you?" Elysia continued to ask.

"She didn't do anything, just watched the sunset with me," Zhu Yufeng replied. This was the truth; Lilith really hadn't done anything.

They simply watched the sunset together, saying nothing and doing nothing, appearing serene and content.

"Is that so..." Elysia also looked at the sunset, "It really is very romantic..."

The two watched the sunset in silence until it disappeared below the horizon, the sky gradually darkened, and the city lights began to come on one by one.

As the Ferris wheel was about to reach its highest point, Elysia spoke up, "Maple, can you look at me gently?"

"Hmm?" Zhu Yufeng looked at Elysia, who had already stood up and come to him. She then bent down and hugged him, kissing him without any hesitation.

Zhu Yufeng: "???"

A second kiss? You all like forceful kisses, don't you?

{Author: Are you sure it's not because you don't take the initiative?}

The last rays of the setting sun disappeared, and night fell completely, at which point the stars twinkled.

As the Ferris wheel began its descent, Elysia released Zhu Yufeng. Her cheeks were flushed with a rosy hue. She smiled and said to Zhu Yufeng, "This is my heartfelt sentiment. No matter what happens in the future, I will never change my mind. Elysia will always be here, no matter when or where."

It is said that hesitation leads to defeat, while decisiveness leads to giving away nothing. In Elysia's opinion, decisiveness may lead to giving away nothing, but hesitation will definitely lead to defeat. In front of Lilith, all hesitation is meaningless. Only decisiveness can clearly convey one's feelings to Maple.

Zhu Yufeng looked up at Elysia, then stood up and gave her a hug. "I have indeed received your kindness."
