Awakening

Tears streamed from Kiana's eyes.

She actually understood it all now. She understood that Fu Hua had not lied.

But...

But!

Her memories of being with her mother had felt so real. How could she deny them so easily?!

"R-Right! There's still that magic spell!"

As if she had thought of something, Kiana, kneeling on the ground, began mechanically repeating a phrase.

"Ich ☆ liebe ☆ dich☆"

"Ich ☆ liebe ☆ dich☆..."

"Ich ☆ liebe ☆ dich☆!!!"

As the chant rang out, Kiana's voice gradually became ethereal, and her pupils changed from sky blue to brilliant gold.

"That's right. As long as I recite this spell, any wish can come true!"

Boundless power burst from Kiana's body, and an enormous wing of light emerged from behind her.

Hearing the warning from her communicator that intense Honkai Energy had been detected, Fu Hua activated her Valkyrie armor.

As golden light flared, Fu Hua's face was concealed behind a cold visor.

"No. This time, the world won't change according to your wishes..."

"Kiana, it's time to wake up from your dream."

Under the shocked gazes of the viewers, the video suddenly went black as the grim BGM came to an end.

"Bishop, Fu Hua has captured the target. Theresa has also been subdued. How should we handle them?"

"Hehe, Theresa is my dear granddaughter, so let her go.

I'm very interested in that little girl. Bring her to headquarters immediately, Durandal."

A line of subtitles appeared as well.

To be continued...

The real world: ...???

You cliffhanger bastard, may you die a horrible death!!!

At that moment, the same words echoed in the hearts of everyone in front of a computer screen.

They had thought Kiana would finally create a good ending through her own efforts. Who knew the writers would pull another stunt?!

A stunt was one thing.

After all, with the experience of the previous times, viewers had gradually grown used to the so-called "miHoYo-style twists."

But this time, they really couldn't take it anymore.

Damn it.

Who ends a chapter like that?!

Were they doing some kind of edging challenge?

In the real world, many people cursed out loud, thinking that Ai-chan was truly a bastard.

Fuck, I'm buying a ticket right now. I'm charging straight to miHoYo and blowing up their writers!!!

Fine, fine, fine. So the writers can't write without making the main cast betray each other, huh? First it was my Duck Duck, and now even my class monitor has betrayed us!

You dogshit writers, take my Mamba... no, wrong move, take my Inch Force! Open Heaven!

Brother upstairs, count me in!

MiHoYo, you have no heart! Kiana is such a cute girl, how could you do this to her?!

It's 1:21 in the morning and I can't sleep. MiHoYo writers, can you sleep?!

Watching the enraged viewers, even Ye Li could not help but worry for that cabbage-headed girl.

He also felt that she had gone too far.

But he had to admit, the effect was pretty good.

Ye Li could feel the viewers' "enthusiasm" to treat the writers to a meal even through his phone screen.

Then again, when he remembered how he himself had once been toyed with by miHoYo's writers, Ye Li suddenly felt at peace.

"Sure enough, compared to being led astray myself, watching others be led astray is much more fun."

After browsing the forum for a while and seeing that it was full of people unable to sleep because of today's Honkai Impact 3rd plot, Ye Li went to bed in satisfaction.

Ye Li had gone to sleep, but some people could not.

For example, The Big Three, who were gathered in their dorm watching videos, and a certain flat-chested Shenzhou girl who had just finished her pre-bed exercise.

According to Fu Hua's usual schedule, she should have been in deep sleep before ten at night.

But all of that routine had been shattered by a video called Honkai Impact 3rd.

She looked at the familiar yet unfamiliar classmates and teacher in the video...

And what concerned Fu Hua even more was that she herself had appeared in that video?

Suddenly, a stabbing pain struck Fu Hua's head, accompanied by the sound of metal cracking inside her mind.

Then memories flooded into her like a tidal wave.

What was Fire Moth... and what was a Fusion Warrior?

And Project Fire, Immortal Crimson Kite?

Fighting through her dizziness, Fu Hua was about to get up and open the window for some fresh air, but she ultimately collapsed onto her bed.

In her final moments of consciousness, she seemed to see thirteen heroes who had given everything to save the world...

And within the shadow behind those thirteen people, Fu Hua also spotted a man whose face she could not make out.

"You are... Ye..."

With an indistinct murmur, Fu Hua drifted into sleep.
