Chapter 172

The perfect combination creates both contrast and opposition.

No wonder that even in the future, many people will still think that the two of them are rivals and natural opponents.

The overall styles are all different!

They can be friends.

But shouldn't they be formidable rivals?

Elysia had to admit that the future Jana in the picture really looked like a different person from the current Jana.

The current Jana, although she is silly, stubborn, and clumsy, is very obedient!

It has high plasticity.

It can't really turn out like that, right?

And!

Even if that's really the case.

She will definitely become friends with Jana.

Jana, wouldn't she do the same?

Yes or no?

Immediately afterwards.

Elysia's character art and Jana's character art both seem to have been moved upwards together.

It occupies the upper half of the screen.

The remaining lower half depicts the Young Lady.

She was mysterious and holy, like a princess, with a halo behind her head.

This time, the character illustrations have been enhanced with more detail and technical skill, making them much more refined than the initial version.

White feathers are present on the waist, behind the ears, and on the back.

I don't think Kiana had this element before, right?

Could this be her true nature?

[As everyone knows!]

Lady Elysia can summon miracles; if she wishes, her dreams can come true.

[...]

So, at the final moment of the old Old Era period, the Finality came. What was her purpose?

[Yes, that's right, as insurance. If the Young Lady is unable to regain her consciousness on her own, she will be the one to awaken her True Self.]

[...]

In the celestial display.

On Elysia's side, a chain of shackles has been connected, linking her to Kiana.

Then Miss Yuzu continued speaking.

Let me tell everyone.

Meanwhile.

[Miss Jana, Companion Honkai Beast listens to no one else, ignores the will of Honkai, and never cares about anything else, only ever cares about the will of the Young Lady.]

Her strength was undoubtedly terrifying. She was at the Finality level! Even her raw power surpassed that of the Young Lady at the time.

[...]

The Young Lady understood that if she lost control and couldn't immediately regain her will, it would be a tug-of-war.

The body will naturally begin to act, to carry out its Finality task.

At times like these, someone needs to fight against the Finality, buy time, and minimize casualties and the damage caused when she goes out of control.

[Then this person is unsuitable; neither Origin nor anyone else will do. Only Lady Jana is the right choice!]

[...]

The same chain.

From the other side, an animation emerges from Jana's artwork, like Iron Chain Boat, binding Kiana's artwork as well.

That's already quite a vivid description.

If the Young Lady's will is to destroy humanity, then Lady Jana will destroy humanity.

If the Young Lady's will is to stop me, then Lady Jana is willing to respond to her and become her enemy.

[...]

From this, we can see!

Lady Elysia guarantees that the Young Lady's True Self will definitely return.

Lady Jana has assured the Young Lady that she will not harm those around her and will be able to hold out until the end.

[...]

[Some scholars have suggested that if, at the moment of the Finality, either Lady Elysia or Lady Jana were absent,...]

Whether humanity can overcome the final hurdle remains to be seen.

[They're already skipping class; this is the only way. If there were, they wouldn't be doing this.]

[...]

Many people nodded.

This can be seen from the recent Great Honkai.

That intensity was absolutely terrifying.

Even Elysia is now almost as strong as the original Miss Thunder, and she no longer intends to confront her head-on. As if she has come to terms with reality, she has begun to consider taking a roundabout approach and using romance to win over her.

What about the original future?

If we don't do this, and instead stubbornly cling to a flawed approach that leads to Honkai, what will the result be? Isn't it obvious?

No!

They certainly wouldn't be like that.

Because only Elysia in their current Worldline has this method.

Given the original Worldline, it's easy to imagine that the Young Lady wasn't exposed beforehand, therefore, she wouldn't have had any deterrent effect.

Those newly minted Herrscher will not care about the Young Lady.

And naturally, they wouldn't care about you, Elysia.

We can communicate, but not much.

In the end, there's a very high chance they'll end up fighting again.

"Sure!"

"This wave is finally going to be a sure thing!"

"..."

"The chances of getting through this final hurdle are now incredibly high!"

"Yay!"

"..."

Think about it.

Without Jana, Elysia probably wouldn't have been able to safely bring back the Young Lady, and the chances of success would naturally be much lower.

[...]

[But what if Elysia didn't exist?]

If the Young Lady cannot find herself again soon...

[Jana will probably think about it, turn her guns around, and wipe out the humans first.]

Don't doubt it, this is definitely something she would do.

After all... she only cares about the Young Lady!

[...]

Even if all of humanity is wiped out, the Young Lady's will will still return. In her view, it doesn't really matter.

[...]

"So it seems that Jana and I are indeed very good partners!"

Elysia clapped her hands slightly, put them together, and spoke in a sweet voice, seemingly without any worry.

"With the two of us sisters... my dear Kiana, are you finally completely safe?"

She nodded to herself.

"Yes, Eri 'll do my best, Airi!"

Jana did not refute this statement.

Instead, she tilted her head slightly, nuzzled Kiana's chin, and spoke softly.

"I will help too. As long as it's Kiana's will..."

Kiana smiled faintly, neither confirming nor denying.

And at this moment!

The scene in the sky has changed.

It is a stop-motion animation.

Although there was no sound or dialogue.

But it seems that everyone can also see what it describes.

As expected, it was the scene of the Finality moment.

[This is a version I compiled based on various materials I consulted.]

Enjoy it while it lasts!

Some scholars believe this is the true dividing line between the Old Era and New Era.

[It's not about completely declaring the end of the Honkai that it counts!]

[...]

The land was parched and barren, with sandstorms and craters like those left by meteorites.

I saw the blue planet behind everyone.

I just found out!

So, this is the moon.

It seems that this final battlefield was chosen by the Young Lady herself.

This is to minimize the risk of affecting others during a fight.

PS1: First update delivered, three more to come, keep it up!

169. I want to marry a Fox Person in this lifetime, is there still a chance?

"She really is!"

I'm going to cry my eyes out!

"..."

Somewhere in the world, everyone gathered in a park, looked at the sky, and started yelling.

You can see it!
