Bai Wei: Who's Afraid of Whom?

Even the honest Hua noticed something was off. Why was Elysia looking at Feng when she said her wish? Did she like Feng?

Hua thought about it seriously. She seemed to remember that Feng and Elysia didn't have much interaction in her previous life. And weren't Feng and Lilith a couple?

She felt that Elysia and Eden were more likely candidates than this one.

That must be a misunderstanding on my part.

So, when everyone was silent, Hua spoke up, "I have no ideals... I don't think I have any ideals or wishes. All along, I've just been doing what I'm supposed to do."

She did fantasize about life after the Honkai 3rd, but reality repeatedly woke her up. She watched as her best friends and her team leader left her one by one, and she was powerless to stop it.

Therefore, she chose to numb her own heart.

Perhaps death is not also a destination? She thought to herself.

"Everyone has their own ideals. Maybe it's not that you don't have ideals, but that you've forgotten them in the face of the monster called 'reality'," Zhu Yufeng said. "But they will always remain in your heart until one day you remember them."

"I hope that day will come," Hua said with a helpless smile.

"We still have a long time ahead of us. You will surely be able to remember, or rather, find, your own wishes and ideals," Disaster said.

Is there still a long time?

Everyone's attention then turned to Disaster.

"Huh? Why are you all looking at me like that? Oh, it's my turn to speak..." Disaster thought for a moment, "I used to have an ideal, similar to Amo's, that I hoped all children could live better lives and that the world would be free of so much evil. Ah, don't look at me like that, I know that's impossible... So, my current wish is to do everything in my power to save everyone."

Well, compared to my own wishes, Disaster Dobby's wishes were truly much more noble.

Zhu Yufeng looked at Disaster. Compared to Disaster, he had always been a selfish person. He couldn't do what Disaster did; he wouldn't save everyone.

"Uh... why are you all looking at me like that? Amo's wish is similar to mine, isn't it? Although my wish might be even more idealistic than his now..." Disaster was a little embarrassed by everyone's stares. "By the way, Dr. Mobius, what is your ideal?"

"My ideal?" Mobius withdrew her gaze and said calmly, "To explore the infinite and reach the end called 'truth'." Although she had actually achieved her ideal in her previous life, her greatest wish in this life was that Zhu Yufeng could live a good life.

But she can't possibly say that out loud!

Do you really think everyone is Elysia?

"Dr. Mobius is still the same as ever," Elysia said with a smile. "Disaster's ideals can definitely be realized! Yes, they definitely can!"

"So, Bai Wei, what is your ideal?" Zhu Yufeng asked Bai Wei.

Bai Wei slowly cut a piece of steak, looked up, and said, "Yu Feng, are you sure you want me to say this?"

Zhu Yufeng: "... Go ahead and say it, it's okay."

Although he wanted to say that if it wasn't appropriate, he was even more afraid that this would make Bai Wei withdraw into herself again.

He had witnessed firsthand the extent to which Bai Wei lacked self-confidence.

"I want to cook a dish you like, and I even hope that I will take charge of your meals from now on," Bai Wei said seriously. "As for what the other personalities think, that's none of my business."

So what if I get promoted? Who's afraid of who?

Zhu Yufeng smiled and said, "Well... that really flatters me... you really think too highly of me, Bai Wei..." Then she lowered her head and stopped eating, not daring to look at the expressions of the others.

Elysia squinted at Bai Wei, wondering how someone as insecure as Vill-V could have the courage to take on the challenge.

For Bai Wei gave Elysia a relaxed smile. If Elysia dared to openly admit her feelings for Yu Feng, why wouldn't she?

The eight of them almost raped Yu Feng before, but Yu Feng didn't seem to mind much in the end, right? What would happen if they told everyone? What impact would it have?

Besides, she's just a cook; she doesn't have the same ability to cause trouble as the other Vill-V, and she can always shift the blame to the other Vill-V when something goes wrong.

So, Bai Wei likes Feng. Hua glanced thoughtfully at Zhu Yufeng, who was eating with her head down. But there are eight Vill-V in total, wouldn't that be troublesome?

Disaster looked at Pardo and they began exchanging glances. "Why don't you be a little braver, Pardo?"

Pardo replied with a look, "Don't be like that, Sister Daisy Bai Wei. What Sister Vill-V said isn't really a big deal. Besides, wouldn't saying anything more now just make things worse?" After all, Bai Wei said she was only in charge of the meals. Although she certainly had more to do than just manage Brother Yu Feng's meals, wouldn't publicly joining the fray at this moment make the current situation even more chaotic?

Will I still be able to eat this meal in peace then?

Kosma ignored all of that; he looked at Disaster with a serious expression.

(Is there still a lot of time left? Maybe that's how you see it, but for me, the time I have left to spend with you is probably not that much. The Eighth Herrscher Incident... if you were the person you are, you would definitely participate in this mission without hesitation, and I would do the same. But... how can I guarantee that you... will survive this time?)

Others who had previously watched Disaster also held similar thoughts and were concerned about the lack of progress between Kosma and Disaster.

On the other side.

Kevin placed the lunchbox on Mei's lab table. Mei frowned and said, "Kevin, that's a lab table. Don't put things on it carelessly."

"It's just a temporary thing, there won't be any problems," Kevin said with a smile. "Want to try some? I'll make it myself."

"I still have experiments to finish, you..."

"I can help," Kevin shrugged. "I think I can still be of some help, and the bento box keeps things warm very well, so it's fine to eat it a little later."

Mei paused for a moment, then smiled and said, "Never mind, you're always so clumsy. If you help, the experiment might take longer than I expected."

"Don't be like this, Mei. I'm still your boyfriend."

"So, my dear boyfriend, do you remember how many test tubes you've broken for me?"

"Uh... I promise it won't happen this time!"

Mei smiled as she looked at Kevin, thinking to herself that she was truly lucky to have met Kevin.
