Griseo corrected it in time.

"... Don't look at me like that, it's not just girls."

Seemingly sensing Mei's unfriendly gaze, Kosma quickly tried to explain himself, but as soon as he spoke, Mei's gaze became even more hostile, so he quickly added something.

"I mean, I just enjoy playing with kids."

"You... you'd better not explain anymore. I understand what you mean. But if you continue, even I might misunderstand."

Mei's calm voice carried a hint of amusement and exasperation.

"Hahahaha, Griseo so cute! Amo almost mistook Amo for Mei. Judging from Mei's expression, she was about to draw her sword."

Elysia burst into laughter and collapsed into Eden's arms.

A smile also appeared on Yaqing's lips.

The others are all based on scripts, but this one is something I actually saw in real life.

"Thank goodness we're in the Elysian Realm, otherwise Mei would have called the police."

Little Knowledge laughed so hard he couldn't straighten up.

Kosma's moment of social death.

Mei's gaze gradually fell on Griseo and delicate feet.

"Speaking of which, there's something I've always been concerned about. Griseo, why are you always barefoot? Don't you get cold?"

"Hmm... because Kosma said he prefers it this way."

"Kosma... you...?"

Mei was shocked.

"... I don't think I said anything like that."

Kosma was speechless.

"You must not lie, Kosma."

Griseo's small face was serious.

"You told me that wearing shoes would dirty the canvas and the blankets when I sleep... so I don't wear them anymore. You said it's fine this way, and I also think it's more comfortable this way."

"Remember to include these explanations next time."

Kosma felt mentally exhausted.

"Pfft, hahahahaha!!!"

Laughter echoed throughout the Golden Courtyard.

"I can't take it anymore, I'm dying of laughter, Kosma's expression..."

"She doesn't talk much, but if she's misunderstood, she'll rush to explain."

"There's no other way; if I don't explain, they'll really misunderstand me..."

Little Knowledge smiled and hugged Pardo.

The Canned Food barked a few times in dissatisfaction, then jumped onto another person's head.

Mobius leaned against Yaqing's chest, completely unaware that a new ornament had been placed on his head.

"Amo and little Griseo are both children."

Aponia remains gentle.

"But I think Kosma already doesn't like going out, and he'll probably be even less willing to go out after this storyline airs."

Kevin suppressed a laugh.

Meanwhile, on the other side...

528

Chapter 528 Kalpas Domestic Violence in Aponia?!

Meanwhile, on the other side, Kosma...

Kosma has already embarked on university life and become a proud university student.

On the playground, couples were cuddling and being affectionate during their lunch break, but a handsome young man and a beautiful young woman sitting on a bench looked a little awkward.

"Kosma, you..."

Desdobina's expression was strange.

"..."

Kosma opened his mouth, clearly wanting to explain further, and was thinking a lot in his mind.

"...I don't."

Kosma's explanation is rather weak.

Desdobina nodded. As childhood friends who had known each other since middle school, she had a lot of faith in Kosma's character and believed he was definitely not Lori...

"I always feel like Griseo has a bit of a cunning side to her..."

Desdobina, with a woman's intuition, smiled radiantly.

"No wonder you and Griseo are always together. One of you has a lot on your mind but doesn't say it, and the other likes to only say half of what you mean."

"..."

Kosma remained silent.

"This is boring."

Seeing that Kosma did not react, Desdobina became bored.

The silent Kosma led Mei to the other side, away from Griseo, and mentioned his former senior, Hen, who was Griseo's father.

The atmosphere gradually shifted from joyful to somber.

Kosma still remembers that before Hen sacrificed himself, he asked them to take care of Griseo, and he also remembers a sentence that Hen once said to him.

"The birth of every child means that the world has not yet completely lost hope in humanity."

Kosma wholeheartedly agreed, believing that the so-called "Morning Light" resided in the children who were born, not in him.

Mei finally understood why Kosma was so accommodating to little Griseo.

The laughter stopped abruptly.

Once again, a familiar face in the courtyard is confirmed dead in the anime adaptation of Honkai.

"I should have known!"

Little Knowledge slapped his forehead.

"Why did Honkai suddenly have such a cheerful plot? It turns out it was just a setup for a better attack."

To the audience, Hen is just a stranger making his first appearance, and his most familiar identity is Griseo's father. But to the people in the courtyard, he is an elder who has always taken care of them.

Hen is the oldest elder in the courtyard.

Mei's great exploration of the Elysian Realm continues. She learns about Twilight Street from Pardo and discovers that Kalpas once worked as a porter in a sanatorium, but the sanatorium was later destroyed for unknown reasons.

Mei later learned that the sanatorium was destroyed because of Kalpas and Sakura. Sakura's original mission was to deal with several defectors, but after entering Twilight Street, everything turned out very unexpectedly.

There seems to be a figure called the Boss, and it seems that everyone on Twilight Street is involved with him. Moreover, the weapons she carries mysteriously disappeared before the operation began.

A series of unexpected events led to a series of tragedies, and Sakura never imagined that the two people she brought back from Twilight Street would eventually become Flame-Chasers.

"Twilight Street is indeed a place where talented people emerge in large numbers..."

Elysia and Mei in the story expressed the same sentiment.

As far as we know, Pardo, Kalpas, Aponia are three Flame-Chasers who have deep ties to Twilight Street.

"I wonder who else might be connected to Twilight Street."

Little Knowledge had a premonition.

Perhaps another Flame-Chasers will emerge from Twilight Street.

"So that mysterious boss... is it you Pardo?"

Mobius gave a half-smile.

"Uh... hehe, Sister Snake, it should be... right?"

Pardo scratched her head.

She had no chance to argue. The Honkai wouldn't provide any meaningless plot points. The fact that her character suddenly called Mei" boss" earlier was already foreshadowing and hinting at the situation.

"Sakura is still in the dark. If she finds out, she'll realize that the mysterious mastermind she's been suspecting is none other than Pardo, whom she sees often. I wonder what she'll think?"

Kevin suppressed a laugh.

"However, it must be said that Little Pardo has some luck."

Elysia sighed.

After stealing the equipment from the Moth Chasing Fire, he managed to escape unscathed and eventually became one of the Flame-Chasers.

Mei stepped into the Elysian Realm once again, and that familiar feeling welled up inside her, so she fell asleep immediately.

When she saw Aponia again, she had many questions she wanted to ask her, but whenever Aponia said "please," her body and mind would force her to obey Aponia's words.

Aponia admits that she saved Mei, and also says that if she could, she would rather take Mei and bear those tragic fates.

"Aponia ... doesn't seem like a bad person."

This is the thought that everyone had when they saw this scene.

"Fate...the future..., how come Sister Nia is like Sue in the story? Sue seemed to have the same attitude towards Durandal back then..."

Kevin's eyes suddenly widened.

He suddenly remembered Su's first appearance in the Legacy arc, which initially led viewers to believe he was a villain, only to later discover...

"Wait a minute, could Sister Nia be acting like Sue, too?"

Kevin's idea was extremely bold.

"I feel like things are getting more and more complicated..."

Little Knowledge covered his head, feeling a headache coming on.

This is what the Elysian Realm is like: just when Mei painstakingly solves one mystery, the next Flame-Chasers brings a completely new one. This is hardly the Elysian Realm; it's clearly a collection of detective stories.

It's estimated that Mei will become even more rational than the Herrscher of Reason after graduating from the Elysian Realm.

Upon returning to the hall, Mei heard strange noises and asked Elysia what was going on. She learned that it was Vill-V restarting her workshop.

Elysia also introduced Vill-V's ability to Mei, which is to split one's own mind, commonly known as multiple personality disorder.

Mei then went to Vill-V's workshop and met Vill-V.

As the person who has collected all the Signets, Mei is very curious about Vill-V, but Mei emphasizes that she has not yet obtained the Aponia Discipline Signets.

Vill-V, however, advised her to leave before receiving the commandments, even using the analogy of an infinite Signets.

Mei could sense that Vill-V's attitude toward Aponia was rather ambiguous. She thought Aponia was a kind person, but kindness does not necessarily bring good results.

Especially the Signets of precepts.

Even a commandment like "never give up hope of fighting the Honkai" can inadvertently kill a little girl. No one can predict how far a simple idea can go.

Vill-V's words were meaningful.

But their conversation was quickly interrupted by Pardo came over to deliver materials to another woman, Vill-V.

"Hiss..."

Vill-V's words sent chills down everyone's spine.

They now understood why Kalpas harbored such deep hatred for Aponia.

"In other words, it was because of Aponia's commandments that those crazed members of the Moth Chasing Fire brutally murdered the Twelfth Herrscher, who was still unawakened, and who was also Sakura's sister... Rin."

Eden's expression froze for a moment.
