What Elysia Meant to Anime Fans (4k)

Eden had put it conservatively. Staying awake all night was only the bare minimum.

Their resentment ran deep, and they were rarely in a normal state of mind.

Su Nian's revenant virus had already infected them, and the initial symptoms had appeared.

"Switch the broadcast to contestant Su Nian's livestream. Later, the commentary recording can be kept for everyone in the industry to study together—what elements a wonderful story should possess."

Otto found an excuse and had the backstage crew switch the stream back to Su Nian's livestream.

He had been waiting impatiently for this! Hurry up and serve it already!

While they had been talking, Su Nian had already finished writing all the earlier buildup.

Chapter 65: What Elysia Meant to Anime Fans (4k)

Now, the perspective of the two of them had arrived at...

The Paradise Archives, but at the same time... the Nightmare Archives!

It could also be called the warehouse of the Herrscher of Erosion.

"For now, let's call it... the Paradise Archives. Isn't that a simple and easy-to-understand name? Just read the documents piled beside the Typewriter, and someone as clever as Mei will surely understand right away."

The Typewriter could use their memories to generate relatively objective records. For the story that followed, Elysia hoped to present it through archives, as that would be objective and fair.

"Then... how do we operate this thing?"

"Oh, we'll have to ask another friend for help—alright, it's your turn to make an entrance!"

"Ta-da! The Fairy Librarian of the Paradise Archives!"

There were five of the Four Heavenly Kings, but the Thirteen Flame-Chasers did not have fourteen members.

The doll who looked extremely similar to Elysia, Fairy Ai Li, remained in sleep mode because Mei had yet to say the awakening phrase.

"..." There was only one way to awaken her... The truth was right before her eyes. Did she really want to let it slip away like this?

Mei's temperature rose for the second time.

An iconic high-energy scene lay ahead.

"Dear, dear..."

"Hm? What did you say?"

"Dear... Elysia..."

"Oh my, what's going on? I think... your voice was too quiet. She probably didn't hear you."

"De-ar-E-ly-si-a!"

What had Raiden Mei remembered at that moment?

The green-haired little bug far away... or the dignity she had already lost?

There was a saying in Shenzhou: introverts were extroverts' toys. And in the story, Mei had encountered a naughty Elysia.

A pitiful girl being toyed with by Elysia.

Watching all this, Elysia revealed the same mischievous grin as the Elysia in the game.

It really was something she would do.

The Typewriter could access all information stored within the Elysian Realm. Without interference, it would automatically print the most recent major events.

Elysia's past—the Typewriter printed events related to her that would be more valuable to Mei.

As for what exactly it would print, even Elysia herself did not know before seeing it.

The words appeared, and the smile on Elysia's face became somewhat less pleasant...

["Good morning! A new day begins with a wonderful encounter! Remember to weigh yourself first thing after getting up~"]

["Mmm~~ A new day, new beauty. Keep it up, Elysia!"]

["Get up, get up. Weigh yourself before getting dressed... alright, delete the record!"]

Was this really broadcastable?

Why was a young girl's private life being displayed so openly?!

Elysia cared a great deal about her weight.

A beautiful and flawless young girl naturally held herself to standards in every respect.

Su Nian had even written about her deleting her weight records, making everyone realize the meaning behind it.

"Elysia, you've gained weight." Mobius's demonic whisper still echoed in Elysia's ears.

Although Elysia firmly believed herself flawless, and it should not have been... much of a problem if others learned a little about this matter?!

Caring about her weight suddenly made her seem so adorable. Was this what they called a moe point?!

So how much did Elysia weigh? Host Elysia didn't look fat at all...

The host's online account was [Miss Pink Fairy]. Before becoming a host, she had been a freelance internet worker.

It said on her profile that she was around 55 kg, 110 jin.

Didn't you read her profile? No rounding allowed, you fake fan! It's 54.8 kg!

Isn't Elysia really beautiful? She's curvy where she should be, a healthy kind of beauty!

Indeed, objectively speaking, Elysia's appearance... could only be described as impeccable!

Her face was small, her limbs slender, and her waist free of excess fat. She was full where she should be full and slim where she should be slim. It was as if Elysia could precisely control every bit of flesh on her body, placing it exactly where it belonged...

Though because Elysia cared about her weight, and seemed a little chubby in comparison with Mei, she had earned the nickname "pink fatty."

The term "pink fatty" was merely a teasing nickname born from affection.

The bullet comments were all praising Ai Li.

What a bad, bad person. Even a beautiful girl needed a little privacy of her own.

Displaying it to everyone like this—even if she was such a perfect and flawless girl, she would still be embarrassed.

The main content of this section was... Elysia's first meeting with Kevin.

The Elysia in the story showed viewers before their screens an entirely different side of herself.

Whether she knew someone or not, she greeted them with overflowing enthusiasm.

She would write "very simple" on surveys.

Curious about Kevin, she wore a maid outfit to the banquet and naturally slipped into the role of a maid...

She liked pretty girls, but did not rashly disturb them, merely remembering them quietly in her heart...

It showed Elysia's adorable actions in every aspect. This was a process of making her character more three-dimensional.

This kind of event planning...

A natural introduction, cute little details that drew attention...

A free-spirited way of doing things.

Eden knew that this was what Elysia was like.

Could Su Nian's understanding of Elysia even surpass her own?

Perfect! It was simply too perfect!

Even Eden herself could not have adhered so completely to Ai Li's character while writing something Elysia had never done.

She remembered everything about Elysia, but she could not become Elysia.

If Eden had not known that Elysia did not know Su Nian, she would have suspected that the two had been secretly dating for a long time.

Ai Li would not deceive her, either.

Elysia would never hide anything from her. On the contrary, if she truly fell in love, she would come to Eden and confide little matters concerning a girl's feelings.

She had originally thought... that the only one who could understand Elysia better than the foremost Elysia fan herself was Elysia herself.

Now, between them, there was Su Nian, who understood Ai Li even better than Eden did.

She felt a little defeated... Eden's golden eyes dimmed slightly.

It was like losing a contest of devotion as a fan... How did Su Nian know so much?

The mysteries surrounding him had not been unraveled from the start.

She had to wait until Su Nian went out and ask him privately.

"The man in your memories just now seemed to vaguely mention your origins?"

"Ah... that's a part of my past that even I don't understand very clearly. After all, I was just a little girl then."

"It's not that I don't miss my hometown, but I really was very young. The only thing I remember might be Moth of the Fire taking me away."

"Of course, I wasn't the only one. Moth of the Fire took many people from the town away. They seemed to be investigating something, but found nothing in the end. It was ultimately classified as... a false alarm."

"It's a little disappointing. I had been hoping there might be some secret about my origins that even I didn't know."

...A trap! It was definitely a trap!

It did not matter whether it was foreshadowing or a trap.

By this point in the story, the viewers had actually grown accustomed to Su Nian's writing habits.

They had seen through his routines and his nature.

Every author had their own writing habits. The Past's Paradise was like this—Su Nian loved digging traps in cryptic places.

Whenever something was unclear like this, there was definitely a huge trap! They knew most of Elysia's later story already.

The trap here was obvious. They would not fall into it so easily!

But before they had time to react further, Su Nian immediately switched perspectives.

An ensemble cast—the judges' initial guess had been correct.

The Past's Paradise was divided into several parts.

Eden's chapter, Elysia's chapter, Kevin's chapter, Griseo's chapter...

Under Su Nian's pen, they left behind one confusing piece of information after another.

The various Flame-Chasers displayed different reactions to the opening of the Past's Paradise, and most of the information they left behind concerned Elysia.

He was developing the Flame-Chasers who appeared, but the Elysia they mentioned was the most crucial figure.

"Contestant Su Nian is currently putting all his effort into shaping Elysia. When he previously wrote about Mei accepting Elysia's trial, he had already portrayed Elysia's character exceptionally well..."

"And yet that still wasn't enough? She's like a living..." Otto looked at the Elysia standing beside him, a living...

That was not quite the appropriate way to put it, but they all knew what Otto wanted to say.

The Past's Paradise had always been shaping Elysia.

Eternal Paradise was still shaping Elysia.

It was precisely because of that extensive portrayal that Elysia's later glory came to be.

And it was precisely this outstanding, nearly perfect character, Elysia, who could once again lead Honkai Impact 3rd to so many achievements.

When Honkai Impact 3rd had already become an old game milked for every last coin, she led it to the miracle of both commercial and critical success.

A legend who helped a six-year-old relic surpass its peak.

A character who gave tangible form to concepts like love and beauty.

It could be considered an anime-style work that touched the threshold of art.

She blazed a path for those who came after and set a benchmark.

The first truly flawless person. The belief that perfection did not exist had originally been a common consensus.

No gold was pure, and no person was perfect.

Materialist dialectics taught that everything possessed multiple facets; the armless Venus became a classic because of her missing arms.

Even most classic anime characters had flaws.

For the first time, the belief that a perfect person could not exist was shattered in anime.
