Hen: Was I Supposed to See This?

Although there were some minor hiccups, it's always simpler to clarify things once they're out in the open.

"So, my guess is this: your power as Herrscher is likely related to the concept that time is an irreversible law." Mobius finished explaining his guess and looked at Elysia with narrowed eyes. "So, Elysia, how long are you planning to hold onto Yu Feng?"

"Hmm..." Holding Zhu Yufeng's hand, Elysia thought seriously for a while, "But I don't want to let go~ After all, Feng is the first Herrscher born after I unleashed my powers to fight for humanity~"

"So, Elysia was originally a born Herrscher? And compared to the previous one, Maple is now also a born Herrscher?" Sakura looked surprised. She had always thought that Elysia had stolen the Herrscher qualification through Mei's method at the final banquet... because someone else had become Herrscher in the same way after her.

"So, don't we look more like a match made in heaven now?" Elysia said, nuzzling Zhu Yufeng. Zhu Yufeng said that he couldn't move his right hand at all... Even Lilith wouldn't have dared to do that last time.

"Tsk..." Mobius's eye twitched.

Zhu Yufeng thought for a moment, the power of time? His memories of the Finality battle were somewhat hazy; he only remembered that he had simply used it on a whim...

"If that's the case, then wouldn't I be even more suited to carry out the Chimera Project now?" Zhu Yufeng was a little happy. In the past, every time he fused with the Hypervariable Factor, he was tortured to the point of near death. This time, he was a Herrscher in himself. Although he didn't have any powers, it would be a little better than before, right? Now, wasn't he the perfect prototype for the Chimera Project?

"Rejected!" X3

"Huh?! Why?"

"No reason, and no reason needed, I don't agree," Mobius said, arms crossed.

One dissatisfaction is enough, since only Mobius can assist him in carrying out the Chimera Project.

Zhu Yufeng then looked at Elysia, Elysia pouted in dissatisfaction. "I already said we'd walk this path with you, so why are you thinking of fighting alone?"

But if I don't do this, I... won't be able to save you...

He looked at Sakura again, and Sakura paused for a moment before saying, "I... I simply don't want you to carry out this plan."

"...Alright." Zhu Yufeng had no choice but to compromise. "Then, can my Heavenly Training begin?"

Sakura placed her hand on the handle again. "I'm ready to start anytime."

"Go for it, Maple! I'll be cheering you on!"

"Elysia ..."

"Uh-huh?"

"Could you let go of my hand for a moment before that? It's hard for me to hold a spear with only one hand."

"Ugh... Feng, you're such a heartless person... Let me hug you a little longer..."

"Elysia, you've really gone too far!" Unable to bear it any longer, Mobius tried to forcibly drag Elysia away.

"Um, Dr. Mobius, regarding my wife Blanca's resignation paperwork..." Hen walked in carrying a stack of documents. "Klein said she saw you and Elysia here... Hmm?"

Hen was dumbfounded. What was he seeing? Was this something he could see?

Elysia held onto the man tightly, while Dr. Mobius frantically tried to separate them. The narrator, "That lady," also seemed to have a somewhat subtle expression. "Why are you just watching?"

And that guy... oh, his expression was one of utter despair, well, that's it...

Hen's voice attracted the attention of the four people, and they all turned to look at him, cold sweat pouring down his forehead.

He forced a smile and said, "Haha, it seems I've come at the wrong time. Well then, I won't bother you any longer, I'll be going now..."

He turned around, closed the door, and ran away in one swift motion!

Hen ran all the way back to Mobius's laboratory, where Blanca was talking to Klein, mainly inquiring about Dr. Mobius's recent condition and advising Klein to get more rest. Klein, while organizing experimental data, replied that it was alright.

Seeing her run into the lab, her face covered in sweat and panting, Klein in confusion, "What happened? Didn't you see Dr. Mobius?"

Hen tossed the paperwork onto the table, then gulped down a mouthful of water, saying with lingering fear, "I saw her... she might not be available right now, um..."

He ran all the way back without daring to look back. Did he discover something terrible? Will Dr. Mobius silence him? Is it too late for him to run away with his wife and a bucket?

Klein didn't think much of it, "Oh, maybe Dr. Mobius has some experimental arrangements to discuss with that monster. After all, the monster's Honkai Energy resistance is about the same as Elysia's." This was from the data she had just finished organizing. Speaking of which, why did the doctor send her away when he was examining Elysia?

Hen didn't pay much attention to these things. He thought that the Fire Moth was about to add another excellent warrior, although that excellent warrior might cause some chaos in the future.

In the training room. After seeing Hen leave, Mobius and Elysia continued their tug-of-war as if they hadn't seen him at all.

"Elysia, you should at least stop now!" Mobius gritted his teeth.

"Hmm?" Elysia tilted her head and leaned a little closer to Zhu Yufeng. "Nan Yufeng, are you feeling very uncomfortable?"

Zhu Yufeng: "..."

He wants to train...

Speaking of which, the soft touch on his arm reminded him of something. He knew that Elysia was 1.3 meters tall and weighed 54.8 kg, while Mobius was 1.73 meters tall and weighed 54.7 kg...

He couldn't help but start noticing the two people's figures...

Elysia suddenly looked up, squinting at Zhu Yufeng: "Feng, are you thinking about something very impolite?"

Zhu Yufeng: "..."

It turns out that girls have a natural radar for their weight...

Sakura glanced at Elysia, then at Mobius, and then looked down at herself... Do boys always pay attention to this?

It was as if Hen had never been there.

Because all four people present knew Hen's character well—he could be unserious at times, but at other times, he was the most trustworthy comrade-in-arms.

Seeing that Elysia seemed to be harboring resentment, Zhu Yufeng immediately changed the subject. "Speaking of which, seeing Hen just now reminded me of something. If I remember correctly... Griseo was only two years old at this time, right?"

"Yes, is there a problem?" Elysia still seemed to be a little bothered by Zhu Yufeng's previous thoughts.

Mobius reacted quickly (her attention was diverted), she stopped pulling Elysia, lowered her head and thought for a moment, "Indeed, we were all reset at this time, Griseo... it's usually difficult for children to retain their memories at this time."

Zhu Yufeng: "..."

Did he unintentionally reset Griseo?

"Ah..." Elysia's attention was finally diverted. "So, does this mean... we need to get to know Griseo again?"

Is there really such a good thing? Wouldn't it be even better if Griseo supported me and Maple?

Zhu Yufeng decided to steer the conversation back on track. "So, can I start training now? The Third Honkai Eruption is coming soon, right? Since Kevin and the others have also been reborn, shouldn't we give them a surprise?" For example, let him train now and then participate in the battle against the Third Herrscher.

In the Mobius laboratory.

Speaking of the "guinea pig" Mobius, holding little Griseo Blanca, she said, "I also looked at that boy's information, and I've heard that he's a very outstanding young man. What do you think of Dr. Mobius and him..."

Hen: "... Um, isn't Feng still young?" Shouldn't he be with Elysia, who is the same age as him?

Klein thought for a moment and said, "Indeed, Dr. Mobius seems to be very interested in that person. After all, as an experimental subject... as an assistant, he perfectly meets the doctor's requirements."

Blanca glanced at her old man. "What does it matter if he's not yet 10? He's almost 10, isn't he? When he's 10, won't it all be the same? Sigh, Dr. Mobius is always so focused on this research, shouldn't he find himself a companion?"

Mark. "..."

He was worried that Feng might wake up one day to find himself lying on an operating table.

He tried to hint, "Blanca, I still think people of the same age have more to talk about..." My dear wife, think about it, like Elysia...

"You have to believe that when love reaches its peak, a few years' age difference is irrelevant," Blanca shrugged. "Besides, Dr. Mobius is actually quite like a little girl in this respect."

Mark. "..."

The age difference between them isn't just a few years, it's almost ten years...

Seeing his wife's unwavering gaze, he chose to follow his heart. "You're right, age isn't a problem..." Don't worry, Elysia, I still support you. Keep going!
