Vill-V lunged forward and hugged Yaqing.

Mobius was still leaning against Yaqing's chest, the sudden softness making it hard for him to breathe.

Vill-V possesses an evil that rivals that of Eden and Aponia.

"Hahaha..."

Yaqing gave an awkward smile.

"Vill-V... you bomb girl... get out of my way!!!"

Mobius's muffled breathing came from beneath Vill-V's chest, and she sounded as if she was having trouble breathing.

"Cough cough cough..."

After Vill-V got up and left, Mobius caught his breath and started coughing incessantly.

Yaqing gently patted his back.

Mobius, however, was not appreciative and glared fiercely at Yaqing.

Yaqing immediately understood the meaning in those eyes: he wanted to give her a perfect explanation that night.

Mei suddenly seemed to realize something, but before she could think about it carefully, she heard Pardo's voice coming from afar.

"You... you?! Ah!"

When Mei heard Pardo's screams, a sense of foreboding rose in her heart. She was about to run towards Pardo when she didn't expect that the monsters she had encountered in the Elysian Realm had also appeared here.

After Mei finally dealt with the monster, she ran back to where Pardo was, only to see a thin figure lying in front of the locked mirror.

Mei's pupils contracted; it was Pardo. She quickly ran over, squatted down, and held Pardo's shoulder.

"Bud..."

Pardo's current state is far from ideal; she appears and disappears erratically, like garbled data, as if she might vanish completely at any moment.

"???"

Pardo was taken aback.

"Huh??? What's going on?"

Pardo was still waiting to unleash her full power, but she never expected that the next time they met would be on the verge of death.

She wondered how she could have been attacked by the mastermind behind the scenes when she had only been unlocking a lock and hadn't done anything dangerous.

"It appears that the fourth victim has been identified."

Mobius looked intently at Vill-V.

"The mastermind behind the scenes is no longer hiding behind the scenes."

"Pardo ... Vill-V ..."

Elysia was in a brainstorming session and quickly understood.

Currently in Vill-V's memory space, Pardo has been attacked, and Mei has also encountered the monster that appeared in this Elysian Realm before. The traitor must be...

"Ha, the mole has been exposed."

Kalpas snorted coldly.

"It has nothing to do with me, that's the evil Vill-V."

Vill-V completely absolved herself of any responsibility.

"Sister Vill-V..."

Pardo stared at Vill-V with resentment.

Even Vill-V dared not look into Pardo's eyes.

"I see. If the mole is Vill-V, then everything makes sense."

Sakura seemed lost in thought.

"Vill-V built the Elysian Realm defense mechanism. If she's the mole, wouldn't it be easy for Herrscher to enter the Elysian Realm without anyone noticing?"

"I never expected that Yaqing would actually find a loophole."

Eden sighed.

It's impossible for there to be a traitor among them, but it's also possible for one to be among them.

Vill-V would never betray her companions, but the Evil personality imprisoned along with those other personalities is another story. After all, she has been sealed away for over 50,000 years and has not had much interaction with them.

"Yaqing, does this mean we're going to die like this?"

Pardo instinctively grabbed Yaqing's arm.

Of course not!

Yaqing said righteously.

A glimmer of hope flashed in Pardo's eyes.

"Could it be..."

"I've at least given you time to say your last words."

Yaqing said seriously.

The hope in Pardo's eyes dimmed, and even the smile on her face froze.

Yaqing was still rambling on.

"Pardo, look, Kevin and Elysia's deaths were foreshadowed, but there were no visuals. Snakey's death was visually depicted, but there was no foreshadowing. But you are different. You not only have visuals and foreshadowing, but you also have time to say your last words."

Yaqing said seriously.

Pardo's lips twitched.

The three people who were mentioned were also speechless.

He wanted nothing more than to go up and beat Yaqing up.

Pardo collapsed into Mei's arms, letting out a painful groan. Mei was at a loss for what to do and could only utter three words from her thousand words.

"...It's fine."

Mei's words of comfort seemed to grip Pardo's heart, causing her to arch her body sharply upwards before curling up again in pain.

Against the backdrop of a somber background music, Pardo's voice was also intermittent.

"No... no... Mei -Mei, we have to get out of here quickly!"

Pardo looked in horror at the mirror that had once been sealed off, where only an ominous shadow remained.

"That... that inside is... the memories of when Boss Kevin disappeared...! The person who killed Boss Kevin... was... was..."

Overwhelmed by excruciating pain and fear, Pardo's voice trembled and choked with sobs, making it difficult for her to utter a complete sentence.

Seeing this scene, the audience felt as if they had been stabbed in the heart, and intense anger and sorrow almost overwhelmed them.

There were no scenes depicting the deaths of Elysia and Kevin, and Mobius's death felt too abrupt; they didn't seem to experience much grief or anger.

But now, Pardo is truly presenting Flame-Chasers's death to them.

Despite being the weakest of the Flame-Chasers, Pardo never gave off a dangerous vibe; instead, she seemed like the girl next door.

Although she enjoys watching petty theft, she never goes too far. Although she is cowardly and a bit greedy, when something really happens, Pardo will not back down.

From the moment she first met Pardo in the Elysian Realm, the audience has grown fond of the Kitty, who is a little greedy and a little cowardly.

Seeing the lovely Pardo collapse in Mei, they felt only heart-wrenching pain.

"Pardo! Pardo!! Pardo!!!"

Elysia's eyes were filled with tears.

"I understand now, Pardo, there's no need to continue... Thank you."

Mei's voice was choked with emotion at this moment, allowing the audience to empathize with her heartache for Pardo.

"Heh... hehe... this is my specialty... then... then let's... let's leave quickly...? Mei..."

Pardo could no longer suppress her pain. She tried her best to force a smile for Mei, but tears streamed down her face. Even at the very end, she wanted to leave with Mei.

"Okay, don't worry. If you encounter any danger, leave it to me. Just like before... okay?"

Mei forced a smile.

"Okay... okay... oh dear, Mei... Mei- nee... maybe don't say things like that... people say... people say it's... what was it again?"

"It's like I'm really going to die... Don't scare me, how could that be..."

"I've always been... very lucky..."

Pardo seemed to have foreseen her fate and kept emphasizing her luck to Mei, trying to gain Mei's approval.

But Mei couldn't give her any promises, so she could only hold Pardo tightly, as if afraid that she would leave her arms.

Pardo's body trembled continuously, and images resembling a steady flow of data appeared all over her body, becoming increasingly blurry.

Just then, as if in a final burst of energy, she tightly gripped Mei's arm, using her last bit of strength.

"Mei... I... don't want to die..."

The crisp cracking sound rang out again, but this time it wasn't the portrait, but the image of Pardo, shattering like a mirror in Mei's arms, turning into starlight.

Chapter 555 Finally Finding the Traitor, the Herrscher Resolves the Kalpas?

"Pardo!!!"

Elysia cried out in disbelief, her face blank with shock, tears streaming down her pretty face.

In short, he was stunned by the knife.

"Pardo! Pardo! Ah!!!"

Little Knowledge's crying looks like a world-famous painting, "Eggplant Crying Horse," except now it should be called "Little Knowledge Crying Cat."

Although Sakura felt bad seeing Pardo being stabbed, she felt embarrassed and uncomfortable when she saw Little Knowledge's strong reaction.

"Little Knowledge, there's no need to cry like this..."

The Mi-style knife technique is a must-try.

This is the most perfect tragedy.

Tragedy is the complete shattering of all that is beautiful in front of people.

The more I loved Kitty before, the more heartbroken I am now.

Especially the people in the Golden Courtyard.

Even Kalpas's face darkened, though they couldn't see it because of the mask.

Mobius, Mei, and Sakura remained silent at that moment.

The Home Theater was eerily quiet, except for Elysia's loud crying and soft sobbing.

They don't express strong emotions like crying, but they are still heartbroken, witnessing their close friends die in front of them, even if it's just in a story.

All eyes were fixed on Yaqing and Vill-V.

One is the screenwriter, the other is the murderer.

Yaqing was already used to it.

Vill-V quickly shifted the blame onto herself for being hungry.

"Um... I'm a great magician, it has nothing to do with me."

Vill-V's expression changed.

"I'm the conductor, this has nothing to do with me, so let's hear what the Evil has to say!"

It was easy for the Vill-V's personality to leave, but they found they couldn't go back; none of the personalities were willing to take control of the body at this moment.

"Hey, you bastards!"

Vill-V cursed herself.
