Pardo lacked confidence.

"So I had already seen Elysia back then... What a pity, if only I had been a little smarter..."

Eden felt it was a pity.

"What can it be..."

Elysia blinked her big eyes and looked at Eden with curiosity.

Eden was thinking that when she was a little older, she could take Elysia back to be her child bride!

"Vill-V said with a smile."

Eden blushed but did not rush to refute.

"Tsk tsk, I never imagined that back then I was already a renowned magician!"

Vill-V turned her gaze back to the big screen.

"A great magician?! My older sister was already an assassin back then!!!"

Ling said excitedly.

Sakura looks about the same age as Elysia, maybe two or three years Elysia. It's surprising that when Elysia was so young, Sakura was already a terrifying and frightening killer.

"That's nothing to be proud of."

Sakura patted Rin's head.

It's not something to be proud of to train very young children to be killers; on the contrary, it's a tragedy.

"Hmph, a bunch of ignorant villagers."

Kalpas had almost forgotten about her past in the storyline, but unexpectedly it was brought up again in Elysia's memories.

Being tied to a pillar and bled is not a pleasant memory.

"Hey, Amo, that crybaby isn't you, is it?"

Little Knowledge couldn't help but nudge Kosma.

"..."

Kosma remained silent, his expression extremely complex.

"...no."

Kosma finally gave his answer.

"I think so too. You're not that old. When Elysia traveled the world, you were probably still a baby."

Little Knowledge thought about the age difference carefully.

Blanca suddenly smiled.

"Hen, why don't you think about how you're going to survive when the Doctor comes back?"

Hen initially looked bewildered, but after Blanca's reminder, he remembered that he seemed to have referred to Mobius's laboratory as a cannibalistic place in the story.

"Well..."

Hen remained silent for a long time.

"Dr. Mobius shouldn't be... angry, right?"

Normally, Dr. Mobius wouldn't be angry, but now, Mobius's angry because of how Yaqing created Elysia.

Hen had essentially walked right into the line of fire.

"Hehe..."

Far away in Central Europe, a cold laugh escaped his lips.

Chapter 587 The Herrscher of Human!

Elysia's global travels are truly remarkable, as she has witnessed both the malice and the kindness of humanity, yet she remains true to herself.

It's not that they distrust human beings; there's good and evil in everything, especially when it comes to adorable little girls like Elysia —there are plenty of them in the world...

"This is not just a trip, but more like a test for Elysia, to see the good and evil in people, and whether she can still fall in love with humans?"

Mei couldn't help but say.

Is the human heart inherently good, or is it inherently evil?

These opposing answers are impossible to answer; the debate has raged for thousands of years, and no one has been able to provide a convincing answer for everyone.

"Human nature is complex. The Herrscher of the Thousand and the Herrscher of the Void saw the evil in human nature, while Kiana and Elysia saw the good in human nature."

Eden sighed; the nosebleed had stopped.

"I may not be as good as you all say. Maybe this world trip is just me trying to find someone like me..."

Elysia smiled.

Perhaps Little Elysia had realized that she was different from others, which is why she chose to embark on a journey, partly to find a paradise at the end of the world, and partly to find her own kind.

"Then you already found it."

Eden smiled faintly.

Elysia smiled too.

Yes, she has already found her kindred spirits, and they will accompany her on her journey: Eden, Vill-V, Kalpas, and so on...

[Next came memories related to the Moth Chasing Fire.]

That was when Elysia had just joined the Moth Chasing Fire.

The long-absent Hen and the somewhat green Mobius, at that time Mobius was far from the danger he would later face, and was even advising Elysia not to get involved with him, otherwise she would be ostracized by others.

Elysia wouldn't give up just because of a few words from Mobius. Sincerity can move a tsundere; such things are not surprising anywhere.

The proud and aloof Mobius finally agreed to give Elysia a tour.

"The one who stole Sister Snake's medal... wasn't that Sister Elysia?"

Pardo really wanted to complain.

Especially the crowd that turned their attention to her as soon as they heard that something had been stolen.

At that time, she was probably still rummaging through the trash in Twilight Street. How could she possibly have come to such a secret place as the Moth Chasing Fire, stolen it with miraculous skill, and escaped unscathed? She's not a ghost or a god.

Moreover, the Vessel of Remembrance records that it was Elysia who did it!

[Starting with their acquaintance, those who would leave a lasting mark on Elysia's life began to appear one by one.]

First, Elysia intervened in Mobius's interrogation of Vill-V, then she met Kosma and Desdobina at the newcomers' welcome party, and on the beach she got closer to Sakura from the Poison Cocoon.

While Mobius was away, she took Griseo, who was still an infant, from the laboratory.

Aponia, Su, Kalpas, Hua, Pardo, Kevin, etc.

Elysia shone like the sun on everyone; through knowing each other, getting to know each other, and spending time together, she was like a thin thread, firmly binding Flame-Chasers together.

Once upon a time, they didn't understand why, after Elysia's death, the Flame-Chasers seemed to fall apart, suspicious and distrusting each other yet also trusting and sacrificing for one another—a collection of contradictions, missing only Elysia.

"..."

Kosma didn't understand, he really didn't understand.

Why are Elysia's memories of other people all so normal? But his is the only dark history. Is it something to be proud of that Kevin scolded her and made her cry four times?

Elysia even had Desdobina take a megaphone to spread the word to the Moth Chasing Fire.

So he was the first victim?!

"Pfft, Amo, although we already knew that you were put through the wringer by Boss Kevin four times, we still can't help but laugh, hahahahaha."

Pardo couldn't help but burst into laughter.

That's so vivid.

Even though she hadn't seen it, images automatically appeared in her mind: Kosma hiding in a corner, secretly wiping away tears, and Kevin scratching his head.

"Seeing the stories of how I met everyone is like seeing another time and space."

Elysia misses it dearly.

When she moved into the Golden Courtyard, it wasn't full yet. It was only after she met Aponia, Pardo, and Sakura that she recommended it to Eden.

"Tsk..."

Hen was somewhat dissatisfied.

"Why is it that when people hear I have a daughter, their first thought is of their mother? Am I really that bad?"

In the story, Elysia and He met and talked about little Griseo. When she said that it would be better if he looked more like his mother, Hen was stunned.

Hen touched the man's sexy stubble.

"Honey, do you think Griseo like you or like me?"

Blanca said with a half-smile.

"Of course, it's like my dear wife!"

Blanca pushed Hen's face away, her face flushed with embarrassment.

"Stop it, this is in public, and there are children here."

Griseo looked at her parents with an innocent expression.

"She's practically a succubus!"

Little Knowledge blurted it out.

Since their encounter with Elysia, Aponia, Mobius, Kalpas, who were extremely dangerous figures to outsiders, have become exceptionally docile and gentle, like hedgehogs with their quills removed.

Does Elysia have some special ability?

"Sincerity begets sincerity; no one would speak ill of another sincere person, especially..."

Fu Hua's voice abruptly stopped.

They have emotional deficiencies in the story, and when they meet a beautiful girl who shows kindness and sincerity, they naturally fall for her; in short, they are starved for love.

"Speaking of which, isn't one person missing?"

Sakura suddenly remembered that Eden hadn't appeared in her memories yet.

"I really didn't expect that I would be the last one again."

Although he said he hadn't expected it, Eden's face showed no surprise whatsoever.

She's not bragging, but of all the people present, no one understands Elysia better than her!

Eden's smile remained unchanged.

I couldn't help but admire how sensible Yaqing was.

After watching the memories of Elysia and the Flame-Chasers' first meeting, Mei couldn't help but sigh.

"... So many chaotic memories. A lot really happened."

Mei savored those memories. Elysia was always smiling, like a happy fairy, never sad. Just looking at her made people feel joy and comfort.

"Because a person's essence will not change."

The Fairy Elysia reiterated that Elysia's feelings for everyone were definitely not fake.

Even if no one knows she is Herrscher, even if in that rational era Herrscher are destined to become enemies of humanity, Elysia is definitely special.

"So, her ending must be happy and heartwarming... right?"

Mei didn't answer Fairy Elysia directly, but deliberately changed the subject. It seemed that a very important person was missing from that memory, and she hoped that the answer might be found in the next memory.

"..."

Silence.

Mei couldn't answer, and neither could the viewers, who were watching from God's perspective, answer that question.

Elysia's ending...
