Broadcasting Honkai Impact 3rd, I Choose to Expose Kiana in Arc City!

[Village Chief seems to have encountered monsters today too. Kiana, could I trouble you to help clear them out?]

[Eh? Why all of a sudden...]

[Could I trouble you to help?]

[Okay... fine.]

After Yae Sakura sternly finished asking Kiana for help, the dialogue box disappeared.

The arrow guidance reappeared on the ground.

Beichen didn't waste any words and directly controlled Ri Duck, speeding through Yae Village...

He vaguely remembered that the story progressing to this point meant the first cycle was about to end.

The bloody reality of Yae Village would be laid bare before everyone's eyes...

"Big brother, I don't quite understand... why did Yae Sakura suddenly become a bit overbearing just now?"

"Hm? You mean... when she asked someone else to deal with the monsters?"

"Yes, she was asking for help, but her tone was so overbearing..."

"Hahaha, then it seems you didn't realize Yae Sakura wanted to send Kiana away."

"What?! Why would she..."

While Seele was still in shock, Ri Duck had already successfully reached her destination.

Zombies immediately began to appear on the ground. However, before these zombies could even stabilize themselves after appearing, they were dealt with by a few shots.

After the mission stage was completed, the game guided Beichen to the NPC Kallen.

Beichen clicked to talk, and the dialogue box popped up. Kiana's avatar was on the left.

[Are you the village chief of Yae Village?]

[Hm? Who are you...]

[I heard you encountered monsters. Yae Sakura asked me to help clear them out.]

[Hmph. Since when did our Yae Village's shrine maiden need help from outsiders.]

[That's because Yae Sakura has other, more important matters to attend to.]

[More important matters! Is there anything more important than saving my life as the village chief! Hmph, important matters, that's just her excuse!]

[She just doesn't want to help me, this heartless shrine maiden! She's still holding a grudge from back then...]

[Back then?]

[I knew it, she's still holding a grudge about what happened back then. She's just a little girl. For the sake of the village, what does the life of a little girl matter?]

[Little girl, could it be Yae Rin?]

[The current country still needs help from outsiders like you whose origins are unknown, tsk...]

[You, how could you...]

[...Forget it, Kallen. Don't bother with this old man. Let's deal with the monsters first. We can ask Yae Sakura about what happened back then later!]

The village chief's attitude was extremely hostile, conveying negative emotions like prejudice, overbearingness, and arrogance.

The livestream fell silent for a moment, and then a blue bullet comment drifted across the screen.

"This old man seems so mean... How can there be such a fierce person in the world... Is Yae Sakura living near someone like this? How pitiful."

Seele seemed to have never encountered such a terrible person, so her fear was evident even from the bullet comments.

Under normal circumstances, a warm guy would appear at this moment, gently comforting her young heart.

Unfortunately, this warm guy wouldn't appear.

Not only would he not appear, but Beichen would even remind her at this moment:

"Do you remember what I said? This world is never beautiful."

(T_T) But I still hope Yae Sakura and the others can live happily.

Ahahaha...

You're playing the Honkai Impact 3rd script, and you expect happiness?

At this point, Beichen felt a bit embarrassed to shatter the child's beautiful fantasy.

"Then... I promise you, it will happen."

Although... not in the real world.

The atmosphere in the livestream became somber due to Seele's comment and Beichen's reply.

Perhaps influenced by the mood, a green bullet comment suddenly drifted across the empty screen.

"And I... only wish for Miss Saintess to live well."

Otto's bullet comment, though just a casual sentence.

Beichen, having already seen the script, could feel the weight of this sentence.

As the conversation in the livestream room was happening, Ri Duck had already entered the shrine on her motorcycle.

After a brief exchange, several waves of minor enemies appeared within the shrine. Once the monsters were dealt with.

The screen suddenly began to darken...

[Sister, will my illness ever get better?]

As the screen lit up, a petite figure dressed in a kimono appeared before everyone in the livestream room...

Chapter 39: Damn it! My viewers have been emotionally gutted by this, Mihoyo, you piece of—!

Rin stood with her back to everyone, lowering her head to drink the medicine Yae Sakura was feeding her. The sisters were located in the shrine on the mountain in Yae Village. The midday sun shone through the paper windows into the room.

It was in this quiet and peaceful atmosphere that Yae Sakura slowly offered words of comfort.

[Of course you'll get better, Rin, don't think too much about it. You're a good child, and the gods will surely protect you.]

The camera gradually pulled back as Yae Sakura spoke.

Finally, what appeared on the screen was a heartwarming scene of Yae Sakura personally feeding her bedridden sister medicine.

However, at this moment, Yae Sakura did not have fox ears on her head...

[But Father told me this morning that this festival...]

As the CG played, Rin's words abruptly stopped.

The screen was replaced by paleness, followed by a scene of Yae Sakura collapsing onto the ground, staring blankly at Rin...

The background not only switched from inside the shrine to outside, but the weather also changed from sunny to stormy with thunder and rain.

The gray and black color scheme starkly revealed Yae Sakura's despair...

[Sister, it seems... the promise to see the cherry blossoms together can't be fulfilled... Sister, you must become an excellent shrine maiden... protect... everyone...]

After Rin uttered her dying words with her last breath, the screen turned black.

When it lit up again, Yae Sakura was standing before a simple gravestone, looking up at the overcast sky, with the torii gate symbolizing the shrine standing in the distance.

[Rin, your sister has now obtained the power to kill everyone.]

[I want to get revenge on them]

[I want to kill everyone]

[I want to send them all to accompany you in death]

[And then... and then your sister will come find you, whether it's heaven or hell, whether the path is guarded by gods or demons.]

[I will come to your side, okay...]

The plot CG ended here.

[Because of your livestream content, Loves Bronya feels sadness, you have obtained 560 Crystals!]

[Because of the interaction in your livestream room, Miss Pink Elf feels shocked, you have obtained 560 Crystals!]

[Because of the interaction in your livestream room, today's performance is not perfect enough...]

Beichen's ears were filled with the system's crystal deposit notification sounds.

While watching the CG, almost everyone in the livestream room was shocked by its content. Even now, no one could send a single bullet comment...

Beichen had actually been mentally prepared for such a situation.

Although several years had passed since the first viewing of Sakura Samsara, this heavy blow from Mihoyo still left a lingering sense of regret...

"Wuwuwu! Big brother, my eyes hurt a little, they look swollen from crying... o(╥﹏╥)o"

After a long silence, Seele finally broke the silence in the livestream room.

From her bullet comment, it was clear that she had been emotionally gutted.

After all, as a beautiful girl who was also taken care of by her sister, she could strongly empathize with the pain of Yae Sakura and Rin...

She experienced the emotional devastation twice over.

"Then go find some tissues, there might be more later~"

"Eh..."

While Beichen and Seele were communicating, other viewers in the livestream room also expressed their opinions.

Or rather, blessings?

"May our Sakura not worry about the safety of her loved ones. May the twins, separated by suffering, meet with the blessings of fate. Let this noble and pure soul rest in peace in her homeland."

Elysia, for the first time in a while, did not speak with a playful or lively tone as she offered her blessing.

Even when recounting her past to Mei, she had spoken in an otherworldly manner.

But after seeing the past of Yae Sakura and Rin, she showed solemnity.

This was enough to show how much impact this part of the story had on her...

"It's a very moving story. I... also remembered my loved ones. And the captain who gave me a chance, and those... companions I can no longer see."

Hua had been very calm, but now... she felt like she could barely control the emotions she had suppressed for so long.

"The thought of people I know leaving makes me feel lonely. But for a warrior, this is an emotion that must be suppressed... I, I might have lost my composure."

In the live stream, audience comments floated by one after another.

Watching their emotional reactions, Beichen suddenly felt that it was normal for him to have been so deeply affected back then.

But then again, there were only four viewers in this live stream. The first three were already upset by the emotional toll.

What was the last one feeling now?

"Just as I suspected, hehe... The people of this village tried to prolong their lives by appeasing a so-called god, but in the end, they themselves created the evil god that would destroy them."

"Are you trying to satirize... the foolishness of these people? The very thing they hoped would save them ultimately led to their destruction. I must say, it's quite ironic."

"In the pursuit of solutions, humanity never tires. In my opinion, there's nothing wrong with that. Their biggest mistake, in fact, was failure."

This... truly sounded like something Bishop Otto would say.

Could it be that he was sharing his true inner thoughts because he had been so moved?

Beichen thought for a moment and then asked a rather sensitive question:

"So, you mean... if it could achieve the goal, sacrificing one person wouldn't matter?"

"But the result was that their method led them further down the path of destruction. Therefore, it wasn't the answer, but a mistake."

"...You're right. Alright, let's continue watching the story."

Beichen did not continue talking with Otto.

Because it was meaningless.
