Chapter 82

Why is he the savior?

Tsk, An Yu thinks it's still necessary for Jiu to explore this matter further. ￡№″`∨

He restarted the game, and finally, in the sixth stage, he was allowed to bring an extra skill. He mindlessly chose Overload and Herrscher of Death, feeling that energy precision and subsequent utilization were extremely important.

Herrscher: An Yu

Level: 1

Skills: Twin Familiars, Echo, Life Bloom 1, Overload

Family members: To be selected

"According to the boss's game storyline, the person associated with the Herrscher of Death is probably Seele, but we don't know if it's Black Seele or White Seele."

If it were Black Seele, with her fiery temper, she wouldn't just come and kick down the door the next day, would she? White Seele... An Yu sighed, thinking of Seele's sweet and gentle appearance.

"White Seele should be a little more careful."

[Level 6: Death and Life]

Opening ceremony lightning strike!

It's my older sister Elysia!

One day, she fell from the sky.

[People looked up and gazed upwards, &▓▓▓▓▓￥#▓@.&▓▓▓▓▓#▓@.]

[After the Great Honkai, the peaceful town of Vostok -51 was utterly destroyed.]

[The bewildered child stares at the disaster he has caused, as the power that should have restored everything spirals out of control.]

[She didn't know what had happened, but this time, the accumulation of past events had altered her very birth; she had lost the innate purity she was born with.]

[She tried her best, but the power that should have responded to her was no longer flawless; Honkai was driven by her own will, but she had lost the possibility of creating everything.]

An Yu hesitated for a moment, then decided not to skip it. He felt that his older sister was mentally broken and might even commit suicide.

Moreover, if this continues, Elysia will definitely go crazy, and so will reality.

The story continues

[Confusion and panic completely overwhelmed the child. Elysia's hands trembled; she wanted to bury everyone, but she couldn't. She couldn't even perfectly control her own power.]

[Finally, when the early members of the Fire Moth organization arrived here, she had no choice but to leave; she didn't even dare to approach them.]

[The Honkai always followed her, like a shadow; the Honkai Disease arrived prematurely.]

The story ended, An Yu looked at herself. She was still the same as before, in her early twenties.

He walked up to Elysia, who was still adorable.

"Kill me."

The grasslands were withered, the flowers were dead, and Elysia looked up, her eyes filled with desolation, all she could see was a lifeless wasteland.

"We're all compatriots, why would I kill you?"

An Yu shook her head and sat down to the side.

He suddenly spoke up, "Hey, kid, what were your dreams before all of this happened?"

Elysia's eyes were somewhat blank. Dreams—such a distant word. For the sake of reality, for the sake of surviving the Honkai, she had already cast her dreams aside. Whoosh

To be honest

What am I striving for in my dream?

She remembered her cousin Carl, whom Professor Planck had mentioned... Someone had to do it, even if the road ahead was fraught with peril.

"I want to travel the world and find Elysian Realm..."

Even amidst utter silence, Honkai remained ever-present.

P. S. Sorry, the Ice Herrscher fight... well, I was planning to skip it from the start because I really didn't know how the Ice Herrscher could fight. I won't go into the details.

Volume 1: Chapter 120, Scene 119: The Adorable Elysia

Elysia may become very powerful in the future, but for now, she's just a cute little girl.

[Choose a Fellowship - Elysia]

[Binding failed]b

[Choose a Fellowship - Elysia]

[Binding failed]

An Yu:...

Why can't Elysia be bound to someone?

Without much thought, An Yu reached out her hand and stopped in front of Elysia.

Elysia hesitated for a moment, but still chose to hold it.

"What does traveling around the world have to do with the Elysian Realm?" An Yu asked.

Elysia shook her head blankly. She didn't know, she just felt that she should take a long journey to try to find her past self.

But she still answered, "I want to witness... the existence of the Elysian Realm."

She murmured, but it was just too difficult, and Elysia closed her eyes again.

"Then let's go look for them. I'm also very curious whether there are any similar ones at the Elysian Realm."

Seeing the Herrscher's curious gaze, Elysia didn't answer. She recalled the Second Herrscher, Sirin, born from the resentment of being a homeless child captured for experiments, the Third Herrscher being the epitome of school bullying, the Fourth, the Fifth... it seemed that everyone lived a life beyond their control.

"An Yu, why did you become Herrscher?"

Elysia turned her head to the side and looked at An Yu.

I?

An Yu was also taken aback, because I was playing a game... He sat on the wasteland, supporting himself with his hands, looking up at the sky.

"You guess?"

He smiled.

Elysia's newly emerging semblance of calm plummeted once again.

She still mustered her courage. "So what are you going to do next?"

Elysia looked at him. An Yu pondered for a moment, then shook his head. He should be investigating the truth of this world, but he couldn't tell the adorable Elysia about it.

"Would you like to travel around the world with me?"

Elysia reached out her hand, with a hint of cautious anticipation.

If she could, she wanted to try... to understand, and even influence, a Herrscher from the very beginning. >∏

"Sure, I have nothing to do right now anyway."

[The Honkai still lingered, Elysia suddenly remembered something: if the dream hadn't changed, she didn't seem to have much power in the early stages of her world travels.]

[She might even go hungry; she might not even be able to do anything.]

[During this time, An Yu was mostly an observer, recording and reflecting as she helped Elysia kill her pursuers when she messed things up again.]

[The initial relief shed, the recitation class, the little girl at the station.]

She kept forcing herself to control this power, but with little effect.

[Even more subtly, the power seemed to be Honkai.]

"Sorry..."

With a sob in her voice, the adorable Elysia collapsed at the train station, looking at the little girl she had met once before.

"You're so annoying!"

The little girl, suffering from Honkai Disease, complained, not understanding what was wrong with Elysia.

Despite the increasing pain in her body, the little girl still secretly took a piece of candy from Elysia and quickly stuffed it into her mouth.

How sweet! For homeless children, the existence of this candy will evoke memories for a long time.

Qi: "Here you go, it's all yours..."

Si Elysia's tears fell even harder. She hurriedly took out all the small handful of candies that An Yu had somehow gotten her from, carefully unwrapped them, and handed them to the little girl one by one.

One"..."

Unfortunately, all that candy couldn't change anything.

In the final moments of her life, the little girl, unusually, refrained from saying anything hurtful. Looking at Elysia, she whispered, "... Thank you."

Zero doesn't really need to thank you, because this disaster that added insult to injury came from Elysia, from her inability to control her power.

Qi An Yu munched on an apple beside her, and no matter how much Elysia tried to salvage the situation, nothing could be changed. In the end, she sat alone in the empty station and cried loudly like a lost child.

He vaguely sensed that the loss of control seemed to have weakened somewhat, but Elysia was crying bitterly at the moment, did not notice.

Zero: "Why are you sad?"

After Mengmeng finished crying, An Yu looked at her increasingly swollen eyes and handed her a relatively clean apple.

He repeated, "They are not the same kind of people as us, so why are you saddened by their suffering?"

Elysia sobbed, neither replying nor taking the apple.

Is your sadness due to empathy, or because you feel guilty for causing this damage?

After speaking, An Yu seemed thoughtful. "It should be guilt, after all, why should we be saddened by the disaster of a group of humans?"

Elysia wanted to call the other person inhuman, but An Yu was never human in her dreams.

Perhaps because the station was abandoned, there was no surveillance at all. Over the next three or four days, Elysia dug pits with her own hands to serve as graves for these children.

An Yu didn't help, and Elysia didn't seek his help either.

The adorable Elysia seemed to have vaguely sensed the crux of the problem.

About power, about responsibility, about how she connects with the world.

[The Honkai Disease continues to spread, slowing the journey further and further. Elysia no longer pursues past ties and begins to pause for the little things in life.]

[Perhaps, ignoring these people, she could complete her journey as quickly as possible to find Professor Mobius and tell her what humanity should do next, so that human losses would be minimized.]

[But she did slow down, though judging from the speed at which the Honkai Disease spread, it probably wasn't entirely genuine; she was just forcing herself to slow down.]

Fortunately, this deliberate persistence was also meaningful; this compulsion gradually melted away like ice and snow with each expression of gratitude.

[Most of the time she didn't receive thanks, but as the sunshine returned to her heart, she seemed to gradually find happiness in the smiles of others.]

[It was just a dream.]

[The adorable girl is growing up, but her body remains at the age of eight or nine. Her journey has veered off course; instead of pursuing her original bonds, she continues down the most difficult path, trying to bring more smiles to everyone's faces.]

You are getting weaker.

One day, An Yu quietly pointed out this fact.

Elysia remained silent, offering no denial.

The two rarely spoke, An Yu usually didn't do anything immoral. She simply watched her fellow human being, wondering what he was up to, and perhaps accumulating some experience points along the way.

"Change should start from the bottom up."

She murmured.

The Mind Control Device is indeed highly efficient and useful, but everything digitized is undeniably cold-hearted, to the point that even Elysia becomes immersed in the false prosperity of humanity's arrogance. But what difference is there between such humans and machines?

The reason why humans are human is because humans have seven emotions and six desires. The reason why humans are not pigs or dogs is because the vast majority of humans, after education and learning, can achieve excellent results in restraining their animalistic instincts.

She recalled a quote from Dr. MEI: "Under the vast sky, we never feel insignificant."

Elysia carefully touched the flowers around her; the flowers were in full bloom, and the grass was full of vitality.

"Xiaoyu, I think I remember now, what was my original reason for traveling?"

Volume 1: Chapter 121 120 Why not just use the red form from the start?

She has always been the Herrscher most believes in the potential of humanity.

She hasn't grown up yet; it's just that she seems to have returned to the very beginning.
