Awakening

Tears streamed from the corners of Kiana's eyes.

In truth, she understood it all now, understood that Fu Hua's words were not false.

But...

But!

Her memories with her mother were so real, how could she deny them so easily!

"Oh... right! There's also that magic spell!"

As if remembering something, Kiana, kneeling on the ground, began to mechanically repeat a phrase.

"Ich ☆ liebe ☆ dich☆"

"Ich ☆ liebe ☆ dich☆..."

"Ich ☆ liebe ☆ dich☆!!!"

As the spell echoed, Kiana's voice slowly became ethereal, and her pupils changed from their previous sky blue to a bright golden.

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

Infinite power erupted from Kiana's body, and a pair of massive light wings emerged from her back.

Hearing the warning from the communicator about the detection of intense Honkai Energy, Fu Hua activated her Valkyrie armor.

As golden light burst forth, Fu Hua's face was obscured by a cold faceplate.

"No, this time the world will not change according to your wishes..."

"Kiana, it's time to wake up."

Under the astonished gazes of the netizens, the video abruptly went black, accompanied by the end of the stern BGM.

"Bishop, Fu Hua has captured the target. Theresa has also been suppressed. What are your orders?"

"Heh heh, for the sake of Theresa being my dear granddaughter, I'll let her off.

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

A line of subtitles also appeared.

[To be continued...]

Real world: ...???

Cliffhanger bastard, may you die a horrible death!!!

At this moment, everyone in front of their computer screens thought the same thing in unison.

They had thought that Kiana would finally be able to create a good ending through her own efforts, only to find that the scriptwriter had pulled another trick!

Even if the scriptwriter pulled a trick, so be it.

After all, with the experience from the previous few times, netizens had slowly begun to adapt to the so-called 'miHoYo reversal.'

But now, they truly couldn't hold back anymore.

"Grass" (a type of plant).

How could you end it like this!

Are you playing a "tsundome" challenge?

In the real world, many people couldn't help but curse out loud, feeling that this Ai-chan was truly a scoundrel.

[Damn it, I'm buying a ticket right now, I'm going to rush to the miHoYo company and explode on their scriptwriters!!!]

[Good, good, good, if the scriptwriters don't write about the protagonist group betraying, they won't play, right? It was my Yaya before, and now even my class monitor has betrayed!]

[You dog scriptwriter, take this Mantis... I got it wrong, take this 'Cun Jin'! Kai Tian!]

[Brothers upstairs, take me with you!]

[MiHoYo, you have no heart! Kiana is such a cute girl, how could you bear it!]

[It's 1:21 AM now, I can't sleep. MiHoYo scriptwriters, can you sleep?!]

Seeing the agitated netizens, even Ye Li couldn't help but sweat for the cabbage-head.

He also felt that the other party had gone too far.

But he had to admit, it was quite effective.

Ye Li could feel the 'enthusiasm' of the netizens to treat the scriptwriter to a meal through the phone screen.

But speaking of which, when he remembered how he himself was toyed with by miHoYo's scriptwriters, Ye Li suddenly felt at ease.

"As expected, it's more interesting to see others being manipulated than to be manipulated oneself."

After browsing the forums for a while and seeing that everyone on the forum couldn't sleep because of today's Honkai Impact 3rd storyline, Ye Li contentedly drifted off to sleep.

Ye Li had drifted off to dreamland, but some people couldn't sleep.

Take The Big Three, for instance, currently gathered in the dorm watching a video. Or the Shenzhou flat who had just finished her pre-sleep exercises.

According to Fu Hua's usual routine, she should have been fast asleep by 10 PM.

But all of that order was shattered by a video titled "Honkai Impact 3rd."

Looking at familiar yet unfamiliar classmates and teachers in the video...

What troubled Fu Hua even more was that she herself appeared in this video?

Suddenly, a sharp pain shot through Fu Hua's mind, accompanied by the sound of something metallic shattering.

What followed was a tidal wave of memories surging forth.

What was Fire Moth... and what were Fusion Warriors?

And Project Fire, Immortal Crimson Kite?

Suppressing her dizziness, Fu Hua tried to get up and open a window for some fresh air, but ultimately collapsed onto her bed.

In her final moments before succumbing, she felt as though she saw thirteen heroes who had given everything to save the world...

And in the shadows behind these thirteen, Fu Hua also spotted a man whose face she couldn't quite make out.

"You are... Ye..."

With a series of indistinct murmurs, Fu Hua finally drifted off to sleep.
