The Flame-Chasers Have Never Been United. (Continued)
Elysia and the Fairy Elysia successfully disrupted the tense standoff, ending it abruptly as they went their separate ways.
"Speak more carefully!"
Elysia suddenly became curious about Aponia's past memories.
After all, a child's past is not suitable for children to watch, which makes it hard not to cause misunderstandings.
For example, when Aponia was young...
"I feel embarrassed for Amo."
Pardo shook her head.
Especially when she heard that Elysia wanted to teach her the same transformation move but couldn't, she seriously suspected that "she" didn't want to learn.
"..."
Kosma didn't say anything, but it was as if he had said everything.
Mei, Elysia, and the Fairy Elysia have returned to the archives, ready to continue exploring Elysia's past memories.
After Kevin first encounter, the next decisive event was the Sixth Herrscher, who revealed her human side before Herrscher of Death, causing Kevin to waver and leading to a huge sacrifice by humanity.
It was at that time that a seed was planted in everyone's heart.
The so-called belief...
The beginning of the past memories is Elysia and Griseo, who routinely tormented Mobius.
He made Griseo call him "sister" on one hand, and "Griseo"Grandma Mobius on the other.
Mobius watched with gritted teeth.
She had long suspected that Griseo's insistence on calling her "Grandma" was at Elysia's behest.
Now I'm finally certain.
"Love! Li! Xia!"
Mobius's anger was undisguised.
"Hehe!"
Elysia made a cute gesture.
Mobius never bought into that.
If it weren't for Yaqing holding him back, Mobius would have rushed up and torn apart Elysia's cute face.
When Griseo heard Blanca and Klein mentioning modifications and surgeries during their work handover, Elysia hadn't had time to think about it before she saw Kevin walk past her with a terrible expression.
Kevin became Fusion Warrior, radiating coldness. Despite having just defeated the Seventh Herrscher, he showed no joy whatsoever.
If he closes his eyes, he will see Himiko's smiling face before she dies.
"Elysia ... I'm afraid of that dream... but I'm even more afraid of waking up from it."
Elysia then approached Mobius and fused with the unique Honkai Beasts Factor, becoming the second Fusion Warrior after Kevin.
To comfort Kevin.
Everyone threw him a birthday party.
It was a heartwarming photo.
Beside the table of cakes and gifts, a smile appeared on Kevin's usually cold face, and May didn't seem as calm as before, but rather like a young girl.
Hen, Desdobina, Sakura, Elysia, and Kosma celebrated with them.
This is what is known as "severed sugar".
Even knowing that most of them would die soon, a smile still appeared on everyone's face when they saw this heartwarming photo.
Especially after seeing Kevin's past confusion and helplessness, they were able to recall from their omnipotent salvation that Kevin was once just a big boy.
"Elysia is so gentle."
Eden's eyes were like water.
She understood perfectly why Elysia had sought out Mobius to become Fusion Warrior —it was so that Kevin wouldn't feel like an outsider, because he had her as a companion just like him.
How gentle Elysia.
"Actually, no, it's just that I was a little curious after hearing that Kevin became Fusion Warrior."
Elysia said jokingly.
"To wake up from a dream... that is a philosophical question."
Mei shook her head.
"The Seventh Herrscher from the Previous Era, if I remember correctly, was Hua's captain, and she looked exactly like Himeko- sensei."
Pardo scratched her head.
Because of Himiko, before the Burning Flames Forever, many people speculated that Himeko would become the Herrscher of Flame and return from the Sea of Quanta to save Kiana.
Thinking of the Burning Flames Forever...
Pardo suddenly felt a knife plunge into her chest again.
She's so shameless, insisting on reminiscing about the Burning Flames Forever.
"No wonder Kevin changed. Anyone would have a change in mindset if they were in this situation."
Sue seemed to understand Kevin's obsession.
Both the sixth and seventh Herrschers revealed their human side before their deaths. The Sixth Herrscher caused humanity to pay a heavy price because of Kevin's hesitation, so when the Seventh Herrscher was defeated, Kevin swung his sword, leaving him with psychological trauma.
Later, he personally killed the gentle Elysia.
Tragedy of constraints, tragedy of erosion, until the Finality comes.
"Uh... understanding is everything."
Kevin felt extremely uncomfortable sitting there.
Because Kevin reveals a vulnerable side in the story, everyone looks at him with a touch of pity.
The problem is... why does little Griseo have that same look in her eyes too?!
Kevin was helpless.
He hasn't experienced these things, and he wouldn't want to experience them.
Elysia and Mei lamented the past, wondering how much they would have regretted not having taken this photo. Even in the already settled Elysian Realm, people still valued the outcome.
"For example, he can't mention his hometown to Kalpas, he can't eat anything given by Mobius, he can't refuse Elysia's requests, and he can't tell Sakura..."
"Hmm, what do you want to tell me?"
Sakura suddenly appeared in the archives.
Elysia quickly swallowed her words, but luckily she was quick-witted and steered the conversation back to the photo.
Fortunately, Sakura didn't delve into that point. Instead, she asked Mei and Elysia if they knew where Vill-V was.
Mei happened to know that Vill-V was going to investigate the tower, so she told Sakura. After Sakura learned where Vill-V was, she turned around and left.
"I have a feeling that Sakura's reaction just now was a bit strange. Hmm, it's a bit puzzling, I hope it's just my imagination."
Elysia watched Sakura's departing figure, her brows furrowing slightly.
"Although they are all memory entities, Sakura's timeline is set much earlier than everyone else's... It's a bit of a concern, isn't it? How shocked and heartbroken she would be if she discovered the truth about that matter..."
"Like you said, maybe some things were destined from a certain point in time."
Mei said softly.
"But I also hope that everyone can have a happy ending... at least in this Elysian Realm."
Elysia's eyes were gentle yet tinged with sadness.
"I have a strange feeling that something bad is going to happen."
Ling felt empty inside.
"Sakura's behavior is so strange, it's like..."
As expected of the counterpart of the Herrscher of Sentience, Little Knowledge's senses are extremely sharp.
"Oh no, is this going to be a tragedy? If Sakura knew about Rin's fate, would she come after her with a knife...?"
Everyone knew what Elysia meant by what she said, which was the tragedy of the erosion, namely Rin's death. Sakura and Rin were each other's only family, and everyone immediately sensed that something terrible was about to happen.
"At least Sister Ying wouldn't harm her own comrades, right?"
Pardo scratched her head.
In Pardo's heart, the Flame-Chasers are just like everyone else.
They probably won't...
"That's hard to say, little kitty."
Mobius raised his head from in Yaqing's arms and said with a half-smile.
"Just as Kosma said, they are Flame-Chasers, not heroes. Perhaps the Flame-Chasers have never been united."
"Impossible! How could we not be united?!"
Elysia didn't believe it.
"Snort."
Mobius snorted coldly.
She didn't want to talk to Elysia today.
Yaqing was both amused and exasperated; it was just like a girl throwing a tantrum.
Meanwhile, Sakura found Vill-V.
The reason she sought out Vill-V was that she had previously asked Vill-V, who possessed an expert personality, to repair a weapon for her.
The Third Divine Key – The Purifying Thunder of Seven Sins.
Vill-V was very interested in Sakura's intention to repair the weapon, because there had been rumors that Sakura would only use this sword when carrying out special missions, such as purging her own faction, killing traitors, or even...
Vill-V returned the Purifying Thunder of Seven Sins to Sakura.
Sakura pulled out the substitute sword from its sheath and threw it away. She then inserted the Purifying Thunder of Seven Sins into the sheath, rediscovering the precepts that Aponia had set for her.
The memories are stored in the knife, and each time the knife is pulled out, the memories are restored, multiplying the pressure.
Sakura placed her hand on the hilt of the sword, ready to draw it at any moment. She closed her eyes, looking very serious.
"Who exactly is that girl who keeps crying in my dreams? And where does her hatred come from?"
Only now did Vill-V realize that she had made a mistake, a very interesting mistake.
"Now, I finally know."
Sakura opened her eyes.
The screen went completely black, leaving only the crisp sound of a sword being drawn. Fifty thousand years ago, the Purifying Thunder of Seven Sins had finally been unsheathed once more.
Unexpected development.
No one had time to react.
Originally, it was a story of Elysia and Mei being affectionate, but unexpectedly, the plot suddenly shifted to Sakura's side and became so dangerous, with even the Purifying Thunder of Seven Sins being drawn.
"Ah?!"
Sakura drew the sword she would only use to kill traitors and cleanse the house when she was dealing with Vill-V.
What does this really mean? I believe everyone knows the answer in their hearts.
"It seems that Sakura really does know."
Mei looked troubled.
Sakura left her memories very recently, and she doesn't know anything about things that happened slightly later. The Flame-Chasers kept it from her so that she wouldn't be so sad, but now Sakura seems to have found the truth herself.
Vill-V tilted her head.
Even with her multiple personalities, she couldn't figure it out.
