Beneath the ice, there are also blazing flames.

Those were Kevin's feelings.

He blocked the door with his sword, not only as a last line of defense, but also as a silent farewell to his former comrades.

"Eh..."

Su sighed.

He guessed why Kevin hadn't entered Elysian Realm.

Because of the Stigmata Project, he didn't want Elysia to know that he was carrying out the Stigmata Project, nor did he want Elysia to know that he was regarded as an enemy by the warriors of the current civilization fighting against the Honkai.

He didn't want to disappoint Elysia.

"Is it the emotions revealed because of the fall of a former comrade?"

Vill-V let out a breath.

"To be honest, Kevin is really pathetic."

No one denied what Vill-V said.

Kevin, who is carrying out the Stigmata Project, no longer has any like-minded companions by his side. His former companions have also passed away. He can only fight against the Honkai alone and will not receive any understanding from anyone.

Kevin and Fu Hua are not the same.

Fu Hua has integrated into this era, with the entire St. Freya Academy behind her.

Kevin was all alone behind him. He was like a sharp sword, his sole purpose in living was to fight against the Honkai.

But what happens after the Honkai ends?

Where should those who live in the past and lose hope for the future go?

"It would be nice if Kevin could have someone to keep him company now, but unfortunately, his former companions have all vanished, and his current companions have also parted ways with him."

Mei sighed.

A lover dies, a former companion falls from grace, and even close friends fail to understand...

"Griseo ..."

A glint of inspiration flashed in Fu Hua's eyes.

"Sister Hua, what's wrong?"

Griseo suddenly heard someone call her name and looked up in confusion.

"It's alright, little Griseo. I'm talking about Griseo in the story, the Griseo was on the Ark to the depths of space before we were confirmed dead."

Fu Hua said confidently.

"Old antique, you're a genius! If little Griseo hadn't died, you would have definitely made Kevin, that old ice block, smile again."

Little Knowledge patted Fu Hua's back forcefully.

Fu Hua's forehead veins bulged.

Immediately afterwards, a big bump grew on Little Knowledge's head.

"Griseo didn't die...?"

A glimmer of hope rose in Hen and Blanca's hearts.

After all, the plot never mentions Griseo's death; instead, it talks about going deep into space to find a new home for humanity.

In any case, Fusion Warrior have very long lifespans, and there should also be a sedation device in the Ark, greatly increasing Griseo's chances of survival.

["You..."

"Let's go."

Kevin no longer showed any more emotion, or perhaps he had already shown enough.

Kevin is lonely, simply because no one has ever truly noticed his loneliness.

"... What are you going to do?"

"[Stigmata Project] ".

Upon hearing this answer, Mei understood that the Twelfth Herrscher had been destroyed, and the Thirteenth Herrscher was just a lie; the destined moment had arrived.

"This day has finally come, hasn't it?"

"If you don't want to, then there's no point in you staying here any longer."

Kevin's brief words effectively dismissed him.

"Kevin, you know I've never approved of this plan."

"That's not important, after all, you already understand."

"I understand... maybe..."

Having witnessed the entirety of that era, Mei is even more certain that she understands Kevin better than ever why he has become who he is today.

But understanding does not equate to agreement.

"Kevin, everyone has the potential to become a hero."

Mei spoke earnestly to the man in front of her.

"But you... shouldn't expect everyone to become the hero you choose; that's not the outcome she wants to see."

Kevin was silent for a moment, then turned to look at Mei.

"Raiden Mei".

Kevin was unusually silent for a moment.

"... There will never be another Elysia."

"The outcome she wants to see is never here... but in you."

When Kevin said that there would never be another Elysia in the world, his tone was very calm, but it was this calmness that made the audience feel a trace of sadness.

Kevin was never as cold as he appeared; he also had passionate emotions, guilt towards his companions, and sadness at the end of his life.

"Stigmata Project... Eh."

Su sighed.

That was the most desperate plan, and also the worst plan.

However, it is also the only plan that can succeed at present.

"Kevin is probably also conflicted. He probably doesn't want to carry out the Stigmata Project, but the current civilization can't come up with a plan to defeat the Honkai. He has no choice but to carry out this worst plan."

"There's nothing we can do about it. Compared to the Previous Era, the current civilization is like a newborn baby."

Vill-V helplessly shrugged.

After all, the only thing that allows the current civilization to surpass the Previous Era is the Herrscher fights for humanity, and that is thanks to Elysia.

In addition, the current civilization's understanding of Honkai is far inferior to that of the Previous Era; they haven't even figured out the Will of Honkai yet.

"Kevin is in pain, I can feel it."

May held Kevin's hand tightly.

Kevin sacrificed too much to carry out the Stigmata Project.

With his combat power, he could have easily swept through the enemy and directly implemented the Stigmata Project, but he didn't. He was probably waiting for the current civilization to devise a perfect plan that surpassed the Stigmata Project.

But time was running out for him; the Finality was coming, so he had to carry out the Stigmata Project.

"The main issue is the difference in perspectives between the two sides. The main characters' group would definitely not allow the Stigmata Project because it would kill 99% of the world's population, which would be no different from a massacre."

"But Kevin is different. He has witnessed the end of the Previous Era and the despair of the Finality. One by one, the people around him left him. Even if only 1% survived, human civilization did not end there."

"So the key to breaking this deadlock still lies with Mei."

Vill-V gazed at Mei on the big screen.

He is not only one of the main characters, but also a witness to Kevin's past experiences.

This is the key to breaking the deadlock.

"It seems... I have lost the last reason to remain in the World Serpent."

Mei hesitated for a moment, but still asked the question that was on her mind.

"So, your real purpose in recruiting a Herrscher into World Serpent... I've already accomplished it, haven't I?"

"Um."

Surprisingly, Kevin responded with a very soft sound.

Mei wasn't even sure if that was a real sound.

"Well then, that's settled... Raiden Mei."

Kevin's emotions gradually subsided, and his tone returned to its icy edge.

"As the Lord... I allow you to leave the World Serpent."

Kevin eventually gave them the order to leave.

Move.

Even the final scene still touched them deeply.

Kevin will always remember his promise to Elysia.

This also confirmed their idea.

The reason for inviting a Herrscher to join World Serpent was to show Elysia her efforts had not been in vain.

"It's over..."

Most viewers felt a sense of loss.

The story of the Elysian Realm has truly come to an end.

They were in a bad mood, as if they had lost something and felt empty.

It felt exactly the same as when I watched "The Burning Flames Forever".

One is that he will never see Himeko again.

One is that most of the Thirteen Flame-Chasers will never be seen again.

Besides Kevin and Fu Hua, there's also Griseo, whose fate is unknown.

"This is truly a story worth remembering."

Eden uttered his final sigh.

I completely agree.

Aponia nodded.

"Now that Boss Kevin has banished Mei from World Serpent, does that mean Mei can reunite with Kiana?"

Pardo has a very peculiar way of looking at problems.

After all, Kiana and Mei have been separated for so long since the Sinners Elegy.

They were also looking forward to the scene of their reunion.

Chapter 595 Yaqing Gets Beaten Up and Their Reunion After Several Years.

The curtain has completely fallen on the Elysian Realm.

But the influence of the Elysian Realm never ends.

The amount of online discussion has not decreased at all due to the end of the Elysian Realm.

"You old scoundrel! Give me back Elysia! Give me back Eden! Give me Flame-Chasers!!!"

"Thirteen people died forty-two times? Is this a plot even a human could write?!"

"The knife is real, and it's really good."
