"I'm even more interested in you now..."

"It is my great honor."

Gwen waved his hand casually, steer the conversation back on track—

"Speaking of which, Mobius, how are you feeling right now?"

Having completed the first 'molting' of the soul, could it be considered the first complete and true rebirth?

"I feel... good right now."

Upon hearing this, Mobius smiled brightly, his smile genuine and heartfelt, without the slightest affectation.

"It seems my surgery went well."

Gwen nodded, looking at Mobius with satisfaction.

"Since I've gone to so much trouble to help, I'd appreciate it if you could help me figure out how to integrate the Honkai Beast factors within me to the greatest extent possible."

"You really don't hold back at all."

Mobius pursed his lips, but did not refuse Gwen's request.

"Because I believe this is also something you, Doctor, would be interested in."

Gwen responded with a smile.

"Then you should also know that I'm more interested in the secrets you hold."

Upon hearing this, Mobius narrowed his eyes slightly and stared at Gwen with a smile.

"Then I advise you, Doctor, not to be curious."

After all--

Curiosity can be the beginning of a woman's downfall.

Gwen made a sarcastic remark, laughed, stood up, turned and left without a trace of regret.

Having confirmed Mobius's condition and completed the quest, Gwen naturally didn't intend to linger there any longer.

"Oh?

I'm quite curious whether you really have the ability to make me fall for you...

Although he really wanted to keep Gwen for further study, Mobius knew that Gwyn wasn't a lab rat he could tie to his lab table, so he had no choice but to compromise and cooperate with Gwen's request.

Leaving Mobius's territory, and using the Elysian Realm as an anchor point, Gwen returned to the Golden Courtyard, the very hall he had first arrived at.

However, Chrono and Elysia, who were previously here, have disappeared with Kiana, Mei, and the others, leaving only Eden, who is still taking a nap, and a pink-haired figure who appeared here at some unknown time.

"Cherry?"

Chapter 456 The Sisters Reunite and Eden Sees Through Everything

Upon seeing the pink-haired girl who looked almost exactly like Yae Sakura, except that she was dressed in modern clothes, Gwen raised an eyebrow. He hadn't expected that Sakura hadn't gone to check on Kiana and the others, but had instead stayed in the hall.

"Um..."

Sakura glanced at Gwen, who had called her by her name, and nodded slightly, a hint of curiosity in her eyes.

Although they had met before, she and Gwen had not exchanged names. How did Gwen know her name?

"Hello, I am Gwen."

Gwen shook hands with Sakura, gave a brief self-introduction, and then released her slightly cool, delicate hand, which felt like a sharp blade sheathed, to get down to business—

"I came and went in a hurry last time, and I didn't have time to tell you because of something."

"Um?"

Sakura blinked, not understanding what she meant.

"Please wait a moment..."

Gwen didn't explain, but simply told Sakura to wait a moment while he closed his eyes and connected with Rin in the Stigmata Space.

Although she was in a soul state like Elysia, Eden, and others, Rin didn't have any Remembrance in the Elysian Realm, so she didn't have as many concerns.

So--

Soon, Gwen raised his hand, and dazzling, multicolored particles flew out from his palm.

A moment later, the light faded, and a petite figure appeared beside Gwen.

Looking at the petite pink-haired figure, Sakura seemed to be frozen in place, staring without making any further movement.

At that moment, it was as if time itself had stood still in the hall.

Until, a cry, tinged with sobs and filled with a myriad of emotions, escaped Ling's lips—

"Elder sister!"

Shouting loudly, Ling hugged her older sister, whom she had been longing for day and night and missed more and more the more she looked at Yae Sakura, burying her face in Sakura's arms and nuzzling her tightly—

"Ugh... Sister, I miss you so much..."

With tears streaming down her face, Ling hugged Sakura and burst into loud sobs, venting the various emotions that even Elysia's guidance couldn't completely dispel.

"Ling..."

The hand that could have unleashed a time-freezing slash trembled as it stroked Ling's pink head. Sakura felt the hot tears that had soaked her clothes, and her voice trembled.

Even though no one in this Elysian Realm had told her what her Finality, the various details and the unspoken understanding between her and others still gave Sakura a vague idea.

Moreover, even if Ling was unharmed when she died, after 50,000 years, Ling, who was not Flame-Chaser, would have long since turned into dust.

Now that Ling has actually appeared alive and well in front of her, how could Sakura possibly remain calm?

Seeing the sisters reunited and embrace each other in tears, Gwen couldn't help but smile warmly.

"Thank you, Gwen..."

"Watching this scene from Gwen's perspective, "Elysia said softly from within the Stigmata Space.

"Um?

Do we need to say thank you to each other?

Gwen replied with a smile.

"Hmm... that's quite a cunning answer, isn't it?"

Upon hearing this, the heaviness in Elysia's voice vanished, replaced by the playfulness familiar to Gwen.

"Elysia says I'm cunning, so I'll be cunning then..."

Gwen did not refute, but responded with a smile.

While chatting and laughing with Elysia, Gwen suddenly felt a gaze behind him. Turning around, he saw Eden, who had woken up at some point, looking at Sakura and Rin, who were embracing and crying in surprise.

"Since you've brought so many people, it wouldn't be right to come empty-handed. So, how about we present a gift?"

Gwen sat down opposite Eden and explained with a smile.

"That seems to be..."

Eden looked away from Gwen, his golden eyes filled with a hint of surprise and uncertainty.

"Ling appeared after the Erosion Herrscher was sealed in the half-formed Divine Keys by Dr. MEI, was defeated in the Hiyori."

Gwen gave a simple explanation, thus answering Eden's question.

"..."

Upon hearing this, Eden's beautiful face did not show any sign of realization; instead, she stared at Gwen with even greater seriousness.

It wasn't until Gwen became somewhat uncomfortable, thinking Eden had seen something unclean on him, that the beautiful woman finally nodded gently—

"If you possess this ability, then the... strangeness about you can be explained..."

"Um?"

Upon hearing this, Gwen raised an eyebrow, curious about what Eden had seen in him.

However, Eden did not explain. He simply sat up straight, casually straightened his clothes, and smiled.

"Hello, Gwen, I am the Remembrance of Eden."

"Um?"

Gwen blinked, listening to Eden's words with surprise.

"I see it in you..."

"Well, to borrow Griseo's words... it's my color."

Eden reached out and poured a glass of wine for both himself and Gwen, and said slowly.

"Moreover, I also tasted my own flavor in this pot of wine."

Originally, I thought this was a delusion caused by my excessive longing for a glorious civilization.

But now it seems my taste is as accurate as ever...

Eden gently swirled the wine glass, but not a single drop of wine spilled from the rim.

Eden's gaze wasn't on the wine glass in his hand, but rather he was staring at Gwen, as if trying to see something in Gwen's eyes.

"Elysia, I think Eden is looking at you."

Gwen said to Elysia in his mind, letting Eden gaze into his eyes.

"Hmm... I've already been seen..."

Elysia's voice was very soft, Gwen could almost imagine the touched look on the girl's pretty face.

"Thank you, Gwen."

Seeing what he wanted to see in Gwen's eyes, Eden's breathing quickened. He raised his wine glass, then tilted his swan-like neck and drank it all in one gulp.

"You're welcome. After all, you've helped me a lot, Sister Eden."

Gwen his glass in a toast, then tilted his head back and downed it in one gulp.

At that moment, Gwen felt many things flash before his eyes, many disjointed yet connected, images that, though concrete, gave a sense of abstraction, causing Gwen to lose his composure.

When Gwen, Eden, her beautiful face flushed with a captivating blush, was smiling as she gazed at him—

"As expected, you are a very special existence..."

"It was a coincidence, but ultimately, I'm just a lucky one among ordinary people..."

Gwen remained silent on this, only pondering how to respond to Eden's next question—

This wasn't originally part of the plan.

However, to Gwen's surprise, Eden as if what had just happened had never occurred—

"However, there was a slight error in what you just said—"

It was she, not me, who helped you.

As for me... it seems the only thing I can do to help those inexperienced soldiers is to offer them whatever assistance I can.

"Then I'll say thank you on their behalf."

Gwen didn't argue, and agreed with a smile.

Kiana and her Herrscher are ultimately a hidden danger.

If they could receive direct help from Eden, their situation and experiences in the Elysian Realm would be much smoother.

After all, Gwen had personally experienced Eden's exquisite control over energy.

Only now that the Third Order Gene Lock has been unlocked is Gwen confident that he can achieve the same level.

"Speaking of which, Dr. Mobius just asked you to come over. Is there anything he needs to discuss?"
