It was meant to bring trials to humanity and bring about Honkai, yet it created beings like Elysia, and Elysia has never been seduced by any Collapse Consciousness.

This is very strange.

Surely the Previous Era didn't have Collapse Consciousness?

Mei suddenly seemed to have figured something out.

Between the Collapse Consciousness and the Herrscher of Human, one of them must have encountered a problem.

The probability of Collapse Consciousness is even higher.

"If it were Elysia, she would probably do a better job than me."

Kevin muttered to himself.

In carrying out the Stigmata Project, he was no different from a villain in the eyes of the warriors fighting against the Honkai in the present civilization.

He would occasionally think that if Elysia had lived to see the present civilization, she would have done even better than him, uniting humanity against the forces of Honkai, focusing on resisting Honkai, and eventually overcoming Honkai.

Instead of blindly carrying out the Stigmata Project like him, he felt somewhat fortunate that if Elysia had actually lived to see the Stigmata Project harming the people she loved.

Elysia is caught in the middle, torn between her companions and humans. It must be very difficult for her.

Kevin's feelings were extremely complicated at that moment.

"Understand Love Gate, love Love Gate, become Love Gate, Love Gate!"

Pardo seemed encouraged.

Just like Otto, who called her Saintess back then.

Otto shouted "Long live the Saintess!" while Kallen shouted "Humanity..."

Meanwhile, in Central Europe.

Otto watched this scene and couldn't help but nod.

Elysia's actions were comparable to those of the Saintess in Otto's mind. Perhaps Elysia had surpassed Kallen, but in Otto's heart, the Saintess still ranked first.

"... You haven't actually fallen for that woman, have you?"

Mobius's death stare.

"How could that be? When I write characters, I always base them on real-life prototypes. I would never ruin a character's image. Elysia is just like that. Believe me, Snakey, you think so too, right?"

Yaqing looked directly into Mobius's eyes.

Until Mobius looked away.

"How could I possibly care about that pink fat woman? Don't... don't project your thoughts onto me."

Yaqing smiled.

Somewhere in the Far East.

Kiana, Bronya, and Mei were all stunned.

They are all Herrscher of the present civilization, which means they are able to retain their humanity, thanks to Elysia.

"Hmm..."

Kiana puffed out her cheeks but didn't say anything more.

She's figured it out now. Someone has to participate in the Elysian Realm. If it's Mei, she'll definitely be jealous. If it's her going, Mei will most likely be jealous too.

Bronya is even more of a threat; Seele could hold a knife to her neck.

"Mei, hug me~"

Kiana acts cute.

Mei had no choice but to pull Kiana into her arms.

It's obvious who has one and who has zero.

Kiana was the one who took the initiative at first, but now she's gradually becoming...

Mei finally understood that it wasn't a banquet at all, but a campaign against the Thirteen Herrscher.

However, Elysia arranged it into a banquet, hoping her ending would be beautiful and dazzling, but in the end she still didn't send out those invitations.

"Will you... be disappointed in her?"

The Fairy Elysia gripped her wand tightly and asked cautiously.

"How could this be..."

Mei held up the invitation in her hand, which shimmered like a confession, waiting for someone to open it.

"Even if she's a Herrscher, so what? I... am I a Herrscher too?"

Mei released her grip, and the invitation drifted gently on the sea breeze until it disappeared into the distance.

"Lovely humans...why..."

The Fairy Elysia was puzzled and confused.

Mei said with a smile.

Since the Thirteenth Herrscher doesn't even exist, and there's no sender, what's the point of this invitation? Even if the Flame-Chasers in reality didn't receive the invitation, didn't they still make the same decision as her?

The audience who witnessed this scene shared the same confusion as Fairy Elysia, wondering why Mei made the invitation flutter in the wind. However, after hearing Mei's explanation, they understood.

"Mei is indeed very gentle."

Elysia's eyes were curved in a smile.

"How is this any different from confessing your feelings?"

Little Knowledge suddenly felt sorry for Kiana.

Even if she's a Herrscher, so what? Aren't I a Herrscher too?

"I can already imagine that after the story ends, there will definitely be a lot of pictures of Elysia and Mei a couple online."

It's no wonder Little Knowledge is so certain.

After learning that she and the old antique were actually sisters, the number of people shipping them didn't decrease; in fact, it increased. In their words, the incestuous relationship was even more exciting.

This is just a memory of Elysia, and the ending is naturally no different from reality.

Mei was not resigned to it. For Elysia, that banquet was a regret. She wanted to walk to the end surrounded by everyone. Only such an ending suited her aesthetic.

To Elysia's surprise, everyone refused to condemn her and thus missed the banquet.

Mei plans to use her memories to create a perfect banquet for Elysia. She promised Vill-V that she would try her best to achieve the best ending for everyone.

The memories of the Flame-Chasers no longer exist, and Mei alone could not possibly reproduce them all. Therefore, she invited the last person in the Elysian Realm to attend this banquet, which was herself.

If the traces left by the past can be transformed into hope in the distant future, then the future she creates can, of course, also become a hope dedicated to the past.

"What do you think, Elysia?"

Mei turned her gaze to the Fairy Elysia.

Although I already knew that the Fairy Elysia and Elysia were very likely the same person, it was still somewhat unbelievable when it was actually said.

After all, the Fairy Elysia and Elysia have appeared on the same screen before.

"So that's how it is..."

Mei smiled.

"Fairy Elysia and Elysia are indeed not the same person, but in this memory, Elysia replaced Fairy Elysia. The real Fairy Elysia has probably already sacrificed herself with Eden."

"Ah?!"

Pardo was clearly not expected this, her face filled with shock.

"Fairy Elysia is the same as Sister Elysia?!"

Sakura couldn't help but sigh.

Since entering the depths of their memories, Mei and Elysia have become more and more alike. Using their own memories to create a beautiful ending for Elysia is a romantic and bold idea that probably only they could come up with.

"Tsk, the more I look at it, the more I feel that Mei is gradually turning into Elysia's shape."

Little Knowledge could almost see a white fluffy ball rolling around on the bed, but it was no use; her Mei was gradually transforming into the shape of another woman.

"What? I would never break Mei and Kiana up."

Elysia smiled.

"Yes, yes, you went there to join them."

Little Knowledge couldn't help but roll her eyes.

She knew about Elysia's ability to turn women gay, and now that Sakura was showing signs of doing so, she was afraid that one day the old man would bring her a girlfriend.

To be honest, if Sakura were to become gay, the person who should be most worried wouldn't be Little Knowledge, but rather...

Fairy Elysia didn't deny it, but rather admitted it shyly.

Mei knew from the beginning that the Fairy Elysia was Elysia, and she also understood that Elysia was afraid, afraid that she was unwilling to accept the truth about herself.

"Despite being very scared, she still showed me her past without reservation."

Mei's voice was very soft.

She was so gentle, unlike the Raiden Queen who had just entered Elysian Realm.

"Like this, using the appearance of the Fairy Elysia, nervously following me around, observing my reaction..."

Mei couldn't help but smile.

"She doesn't look like a Herrscher at all; she's clearly just an ordinary girl."

"Seriously, Mei has completely seen right through me..."

A joyful smile, reflecting her true feelings, appeared on the Fairy Elysia's face. She told Mei that she was only a small part of Elysia, the first corner that Mei had awakened.

Now, she can finally disappear without worry and become a part of Mei.

"Let's say a brief goodbye here, and then... let's awaken all of Elysia, okay, Mei?"

"Yes, I will. Thank you for opening your heart to me, and thank you... for coming this far with me."

"I should be the one thanking you, Mei. Thank you for understanding everything about me... But if we're going to say goodbye, isn't there a more appropriate way to say it? For example, the opposite of the wake-up word... the fairy administrator's closing word."

Mei smiled, and this time, she wasn't forced to say those words, but rather it came from the bottom of her heart.

"Yes, goodbye... my dear Elysia."

Mei's eyes were filled with reluctance, but after a brief farewell, they would soon meet again.

Bronya swallowed hard, increasingly convinced that Mei had been successfully won over by Elysia. Mei, who had previously been completely devoted to Kiana, now...

Bronya was even more determined to keep Seele far away from Elysia.

"No!!!!"

Kiana's loud scream startled Bronya.

"Brainless Idiot, are you trying to die?!"

Kiana was completely deaf to Bronya's words at that moment, collapsing weakly to her knees, muttering repeatedly, "Mei, my Mei."

"Snowflakes are falling... North wind..."

"Where did that singing come from?!"

Bronya was taken aback. The singing was so fitting. Looking towards the source of the sound, Seele revealed a mischievous smile.

Mei watched this scene with a helpless expression.

Finally, Mei stepped onto the last step.

After crossing this threshold, she will no longer be an observer, but will step into [her] story as a participant.

Of course, Mei had already made preparations.

"Come, Elysia, show me everything about that banquet. And... everything about you."

As Mei finished speaking, she stepped without hesitation into the door that emitted a white light.

Even the sweetest things can't withstand Honkai.

This is an old saying that has been circulating online.
