Elysia Is a Traitor.
Sakura smiled and glanced at Yaqing.
They hoped to see a change in his expression.
Ying was destined to be disappointed, but Yaqing's expression remained unchanged.
Mei found Elysia alone and expressed her determination to face Mobius.
Elysia asked Mei about her knowledge of Mobius, and Mei answered Elysia based on the information she had.
Mobius someone everyone warns Mei about, yet avoids talking about. She is a being born in the shadows, the "dark side" of Moth Chasing Fire.
Elysia was satisfied with Mei's answer and had no room to refuse, so she prepared to guide her to Mobius's location. However, before that, they would have to go through some trials.
"Hiss."
Pardo gasped.
She hadn't expected Elysia's answer to be like this.
"Elysia said that the Thirteen Flame-Chasers are not actually united and will have disagreements due to different positions. They only came together because of righteousness and ideals."
"Does this mean that the Thirteen Flame-Chasers are not all good people? There are dangerous people among them, and they have conflicts with each other, but the Honkai brought them together?"
"Elysia has already reminded me, Mei is definitely in danger when she faces Mobius."
Sakura said confidently.
"Snakey actually quite likes this character."
Yaqing smiled.
With unparalleled intelligence, he created the Fusion Warrior and completed a glorious evolution. How could Mobius not like that?
However, after seeing the loli snake in the story, Mobius looked at Yaqing with a strange gaze, as if he were looking at a pervert.
"Pfft."
Because of a line spoken by Elysia in the story, everyone present couldn't help but burst out laughing.
[You might be more suited to be the Herrscher of Reason than the Herrscher of Thunder.]
"Sister Elysia, if you don't improve your IQ a bit when you come to the Elysian Realm and face a bunch of riddle tellers, you'll be fooled so badly that you won't even have a place to cry."
Bell's rant.
Little Knowledge was taken aback.
A group of riddle enthusiasts... does this include old-fashioned people?
For some reason, when Little Knowledge saw Hua's memory, he always felt that there was a kind of stupidity in those eyes, like that of a college student.
In short, clumsy.
"No suckling ducks allowed!"
"Whatever you do, don't become the Herrscher of Reason. Look at Bronya; she hasn't won a single battle since becoming the Herrscher of Reason. Maybe it's true, as Little Knowledge said, that Herrscher Core is unknown."
"You didn't let her off the hook either."
"It still looks a bit strange. It feels like there's no main storyline; it's like a patchwork of different parts, a fragmented plot."
"Isn't this what Elysian Realm is all about? Mei learns things from everyone, connects these things, analyzes them, and that's how we see the story we want to see."
The fragmented plot development of the Elysian Realm.
Online reviews are mixed.
Some people enjoy the feeling of slowly exploring the story, while others dislike this kind of plot development.
Guided by Elysia, Mei made it all the way to the end.
But the person who appeared before her was not Mebius.
Instead, it was Elysia, holding a bow and arrows as beautiful as flying flowers.
Elysia had no intention of fighting Mei, but rather wanted Mei to gain more experience fighting against Flame-Chasers before facing Mobius.
"Very well, let me see what kind of person the second person who once stood shoulder to shoulder with Kevin is."
Mei slowly drew her sword.
Elysia said that she might be a little weaker than Kevin, but her hand had already drawn the bowstring.
"Elysia, I will never let you down."
Elysia revealed a stunning smile.
At the end of the challenge, you see Elysia holding a bow and arrow.
All the audience members were startled.
Including everyone in the Golden Courtyard.
"You scared me to death! I thought Elysia was a really bad woman."
Little Knowledge patted his chest, which was slightly larger than Fu Hua's.
"How could that be? How could such a lovely girl like Miss Fairy be a bad woman?"
Elysia puffed out her cheeks.
"This is a clear indication, isn't it? Mei will definitely encounter danger when facing Mobius, otherwise Elysia wouldn't have let Mei accumulate experience in fighting against Flame-Chasers in advance."
The audience didn't believe Elysia's claim that Flame-Chasers and his successor were definitely not enemies.
Take Kalpas for example. Whoever has a good relationship with him will just start fighting right away. If Mei even slightly weaker, she would probably be completely consumed by his rage.
Moreover, Elysia herself said that Mobius would do some outrageous and transgressive things.
As Elysia gazed at herself fighting in the story, her eyes seemed to light up.
"Is this my fighting style? Dancing gracefully, how beautiful~? I never expected my weapon to be a bow and arrow. As expected of a beautiful girl's battle, even her weapon is gorgeous and beautiful. Yaqing, you really understand me."
Yaqing suppressed the urge to complain.
Isn't it beautiful? It's absolutely gorgeous.
No one expected that Elysia would lose.
However, the audience did not conclude that Mei's fighting power was greater than Elysia's because of this. Just as Mei said, Elysia was not serious at all and was just playing a game.
The flowing light converged to form the door.
Mei didn't go in immediately, but looked at Elysia and asked a question.
What is the meaning of the existence of the Elysian Realm?
Elysia thought about it carefully, but couldn't give Mei a definite answer, because different people have different meanings for the Elysian Realm.
But Elysia still explained it to Mei in her own way.
"In my opinion... it's a storybook that records a beautiful fairy tale, about the journey of an era, and the entirety of thirteen lives."
In Elysia's view, Previous Era should not only have disasters and suffering, but also hope and light.
The stories she left to posterity contain pain and failure, betrayal and separation, but also happiness and joy, tenderness and emotion.
What should be passed down to future generations should not only be hatred and a sense of mission.
Cold, impersonal knowledge and techniques should be taught through textbooks; Flame-Chasers should inherit is the glory of being Flame-Chasers and the reason for fighting.
Those who follow will witness the footprints of their lives and the Signets on their souls on their journey, and find their own answers within them.
Elysia doesn't believe that Mobius is Mei's final destination.
She will eventually cross the Mobius and move towards a more distant past, perhaps going far enough to witness the buried truth of history, all that the Moth Chasing Fire has done for humanity, and the irreparable mistakes it has made.
But in any case, the Previous Era has come to an end, and the story that follows is about the choices that Mei and her friends must make.
"... Anyway, Mei, I have high hopes for you. After all—you are just like me, a beautiful girl who is cute, kind, innocent, and strong."
"Whether in the past or present, lovely girls are capable of anything—that's the only thing that will never change."
Elysia concluded playfully.
Listening to Elysia's long-winded explanation.
Everyone present fell silent.
Those sincere words made no one suspect that Elysia was hiding anything.
"This is so well written!"
Elysia excitedly hugged Eden.
Whether it's Flame-Chasers's honor and legacy, or his hopes and views for his successors, Elysia believes that this philosophical discourse has transcended the script's interpretation.
She didn't even think she could say such a thing in real life.
Because of Elysia's words, the audience's expectations for Flame-Chasers were greatly heightened, along with their curiosity about the Previous Era. The story is filled with both sadness and joy, separation and reunion, making it truly epic.
It's as if what's presented to the audience is an epic masterpiece.
"To be honest, I didn't understand it very well."
Pardo scratched her head.
"Same."
Ling looked completely bewildered.
"Elysia, what exactly is your role in the Elysian Realm?"
If you were to tell Sakura now that Elysia is just one of the Flame-Chasers, she would never believe it. Given the current state of the story, Elysia is bound to make some big move later on.
Or rather, a broadsword.
"I wonder if Kiana will explode like a gasoline drum when she sees this?"
Little Knowledge seemed to be deep in thought.
In the last two sentences, Elysia seemed to be flirting with Mei. Ever since Mei stepped into the Elysian Realm, Elysia had been constantly teasing her.
Little Knowledge was a little curious.
If Kiana saw Mei being entangled with a lesbian in the story, she'd probably explode. Little Knowledge really want to see Kiana's expression right now, with a hint of resentment towards Yaqing.
Why not bring Kiana's back as well?
"Isn't this the foundation for communicating with girls?"
Elysia tilted her head, her eyes filled with the innocence of a college student.
"Hehe..."
Sakura really wanted to complain, but she was afraid that Elysia would pester her.
She's a staunch supporter of heterosexuality; if Elysia manages to turn her gay, she'll have nowhere to turn for help. She still thinks Elysia's influence shouldn't be underestimated.
Even Eden has fallen.
514
Chapter 514 Elysia is a traitor.
Elysia used her power to create a Crystal Flower as a reward for Mei, to keep as a memento.
Mei might get completely different answers from others, but she knows that Mei will never stop moving forward.
"This is the story of the people called 'Flame-Chasers,' the unfinished journey of 13 Flame-Chasers, but Mei, your path will continue, won't it?"
"Then let's follow our hearts and move forward, following the footsteps we leave behind, to witness that journey of chasing the fire."
Elysia's figure vanished in a speck of light, having returned to the hall as she had said.
"Finally, beyond the final act of the departed... to create the future we could not have anticipated."
A long silence followed.
Perhaps... at this moment, the true chapter of the Elysian Realm truly begins.
Eden's voice was soft and gentle.
It seemed to be narrating something.
On the path of Flame-Chasers, on the journey of chasing fire, Mei seeks answers from Kevin, but Kevin's reasons for sending Mei to this Elysian Realm are definitely more than just that.
