Chapter 305
In the Previous Civilization era, FU did not consider the Honkai as an enemy at all.
The boy who received such high praise from Mei might have become a member of the Honkai forces after Himeko's death.
SU's guess is unfounded.
After all, Mei, who is hailed as a super genius who appears only once in a century, is actually a super genius who is unprecedented and unparalleled in the entire Previous Civilization.
He is a figure who, in the truest sense, is comparable to a god despite being a mortal.
Yet this very person describes the boy named FU as "a madman and seeker of the Way who, with mediocre talent, chases after, surpasses, and defeats geniuses."
In SU's mind, perhaps only Mei, Kevin, and FU can save the world.
If these three could have worked together, perhaps the Previous Civilization wouldn't have ended up like that.
However, I don't know where the gears of fate went wrong. When one gear went astray, it turned out like this.
"To be honest, I feel genuinely sorry that you could have worked with Kevin..."
"Mr. SU, give up. It's impossible for me to cooperate with him. I may compromise on some things, but the conflict between us cannot be explained in a few words."
Even disregarding the debts from her past life, there are still deep conflicts between her and Kevin in this life.
"It seems that Mr. SU has nothing else to say to me."
"Well, I have no excuse to convince you anymore. The problem between you and Kevin is not just about Himeko from the Previous Civilization; it's that my thinking was too naive."
SU actually wanted to ask the girl in front of him to protect his best friend who had lost everything.
Although she has been reincarnated, in her previous life, FU and Kevin were close friends who were often at odds. SU doesn't know how much time she has left, but she just wants to ask Freya, just as Mei asked her to.
Unfortunately Freya and Kevin had too deep a grudge.
"I'm very sorry, Miss Freya, but I just can't let go of Kevin."
"Tsk... Even if you tell me that, I can't possibly take care of him for you. He's my enemy, there's no doubt about that."
Freya shrugged and spread her hands.
SU opened his beautiful purple eyes and looked at the scene on the light screen. After a long silence with Freya, he waved his hand to eliminate all the light screens. Countless withered leaves on the ground seemed to be swept up by a breeze, but they only left the ground a dozen centimeters away before falling back to the ground.
Dust to dust, ashes to ashes; all cause and effect seem to be predetermined.
SU sighed softly.
"Miss Freya, although you and Kevin have an indelible conflict, I hope that, for the sake of the little bit of friendship from your past life and for the sake of the hardships of this world, you can be forgiving sometimes."
He knew he couldn't stop the conflict between Freya and Kevin.
Persuasion is completely useless.
This is a debate over positions and ideologies.
Even though the alliance introduced better new antibodies, increasing the success rate of Stigmata Project.
Freya and Kevin have different goals.
One was to completely eradicate the Honkai from this world, and the other was simply to protect their important family members.
Both of them are extremely stubborn, regardless of their past or present lives.
It's like the stones in a latrine, both smelly and hard.
SU sighed.
Freya's confrontation with Kevin reminded him of his school days in the Previous Civilization.
It made him feel nostalgic, but it also made him feel incredibly sad.
He didn't know how much longer he could hold on, and when he was gone, his dearest friend would truly be all that was left.
"Miss Freya, I will not advise you to show mercy, but I hope... you will not use the power of the Herrscher of Consciousness to unlock Kevin's memories."
"Don't worry, I'm not that free."
Freya pouted.
She and Kevin were already at odds, so how could she possibly make Kevin recall the memories that FU had erased from the Previous Civilization era?
The present-day self is ultimately a different person from the Previous Civilization self.
She can neither become a replacement for FU, nor can she rebuild a Previous Civilization friendship with Kevin.
"As long as he doesn't interfere... never mind, that's unnecessary. Both the Alliance and World Serpent will do everything in their power to eliminate the other organization for their own plans, but right now, neither side is fully prepared."
"Miss Freya, judging from your expression, you don't seem to have any interest in staying here any longer."
"Um."
Freya nodded very frankly.
Just as SU said, although she was unexpectedly pulled into this World Bubble by the other party, apart from a huge amount of information, SU could no longer produce any information that would catch her attention.
Then her reason for World Bubble no longer exists.
To be honest, facing her Previous Civilization friend was already a very difficult situation, especially since her friend was severely overworked and might not live much longer. In this situation, Freya felt somewhat embarrassed.
If someone uses the fact that they are about to die to ask you for a favor, how should you refuse?
Freya looked completely bewildered.
Her adjutant, her sister, and her mother all kept saying that she was too soft-hearted.
If SU were to plead with her life on the line, Freya felt that she might spare Kevin's life.
Kevin was, after all, his good friend from a past life.
Even though she and her past self differed greatly in gender and personality, and were ultimately two different people, she could not deny that she was the reincarnation of FU.
Freya was somewhat conflicted.
However, SU did not take advantage of the situation, or rather, he did not intend to threaten others with his own life.
With a bitter smile on his handsome face, he waved his hand, banishing Freya from this World Bubble.
"Mr. SU?"
"... It's time to say goodbye. I sincerely hope you can destroy the Honkai."
SU bid farewell to Freya, whose body was gradually becoming ethereal.
"Yes, if I can do it, I will definitely try my best."
Freya instinctively resisted SU's power, forcibly keeping herself in this World Bubble. However, after staring at SU for a while, she gave up resisting the power that was driving her away.
Then he answered with utmost seriousness.
She knew that after this, she would never see this man again.
Like Kevin, a man named SU is also his friend.
Since Freya had already discerned SU's state, how could she not deduce what the other party's request was for?
Based on the results, deduce all the conversations between yourself and SU when they reunited in this World Bubble.
It's not hard to deduce that SU was giving his last words.
He chose the heir to inherit the estate, explained the cause and effect to her, who was confused about abandoning the past, and finally... entrusted his most important friend to him.
Freya sighed softly.
But in the end, she didn't soften her heart on this matter.
Therefore, SU stopped asking her to take care of Kevin.
Instead, they hoped she would destroy the Honkai.
Freya, just as the other party had hoped, agreed with utmost seriousness.
Goodbye... no, farewell forever, SU, my friend from a past life.
Freya gazed at the handsome young man with a faint smile on his face. Even though she had given up everything from her past life, at this moment, she seemed to see herself, Kevin, and SU's daily life at school.
It was a classroom at dusk. Kevin was chatting happily with SU, while he lay on the table next to him, feeling bored, though he occasionally chuckled to himself.
Such a scene evoked deep nostalgia in her.
Although Kevin's words were boring to her, she enjoyed the time the three of them spent together laughing.
The bond that belonged only to the three of them was shattered by the Honkai.
There's no going back.
Those times will never come again.
Kevin lost everything.
SU gave everything.
But FU gave up everything.
There's no going back.
With a blink of an eye, Freya found herself in an unfamiliar place.
She should have grasped the situation around her immediately, but instead, she hesitated for a long time.
The vivid memories in my mind are gradually fading; the bright sunset is becoming blurry; the familiar classroom is becoming unfamiliar; and those three smiling faces can never be reunited again.
348. That's almost equivalent to adding several Welt.
There was no fighting, just talking, yet I felt incredibly exhausted, both physically and mentally.
Freya sighed on the spot.
She knew that SU was hiding some things from her, but she didn't hide much about FU.
In a pre- Previous Civilization 50,000 years ago, she was best friends with SU and Kevin. Those bright afternoons in the classroom, those joyful trips of the three of them, ultimately vanished like sand slipping through her fingers, impossible to grasp or hold onto...
Freya insisted that it was impossible for her to reconcile with her ancestors, and kept using differences in ideology as an excuse to deny SU's requests.
But after learning about her past life connection with the other person, how could Freya possibly maintain her usual calm and composure?
"In the end, we were still affected..."
I didn't know much about the stories of our ancestors before.
"If only he were just a simple bastard, why does he have to be like Otto, someone you hate yet can't bring yourself to hate?"
Perhaps it is precisely because a person is pitiable that they are so hateful.
I hate him for having such a tragic past, but I also hate him for being impossible to hate.
Kevin Kaslana, who is willing to do anything to destroy the Honkai, is just a lonely person who has lost everything.
Freya sighed again.
She finally found the reason why she couldn't hate Otto.
After all, he was just as much of a bastard in his past life.
That being said, I am Fu from my past life, yet I am no longer the other person.
The different environment, the different beliefs, and the fact that the people important to her are still safe and sound have made Freya very different from her past self.
"Sigh, I should have known better than to join this exploration team. Kiana was right, I'm just too soft-hearted... Tsk tsk, I truly deserve to be called Saintess, gentle and kind, dignified in speech and conduct, beautiful and generous, virtuous and simple, pure and brave, innocent and cute, outstanding and extraordinary, noble and selfless, humble and incorruptible..."
Although Kiana didn't criticize her for being shameless, Freya felt somewhat lonely.
But Freya's self-description did help her break free from the atmosphere of sadness.
"Tsk, the Previous Civilization was just a coffee table, with tragedies clearly laid out on it. One person was miserable, two people were miserable, including me, that's three miserable, plus Dr. Mei, that's four miserable, and there are other miserable people of all sizes... Bah!!"
Freya suddenly felt annoyed by SU's concealment and his honesty.
It is precisely because SU values friendships from the Previous Civilization era that Freya now feels constrained.
Compared to that bastard bishop who only wanted to be beaten half to death, Freya really wanted to kill the bastard who had become her ancestor.
Even if the current civilization truly cannot withstand the Honkai, that is the problem of the current civilization.
It's the Previous Civilization's business if the survivors are willing to help, but if they want to manipulate the life and death of all humans in the present civilization like gods, then... how are they any different from the Honkai, humanity's current enemy?
Kiana's desire for revenge against a certain bastard bishop is her Kiana business, but he took advantage of Kiana's hatred.
