Even Finality might not be able to kill him.

Elysia: "No, at least not at the moment we died. Mobius hadn't mastered that technique yet."

Pardofelis: "Heh heh, but maybe after fifty thousand years, the Memory Body brought her back. Otherwise, she wouldn't be in such a hurry to snatch Sister Mei's body."

Raiden Mei: "Hey! Pardo, you're making me really nervous! That Mobius, no matter how I look at it, doesn't seem like someone I can beat."

Eden: "In all rational probability, you indeed cannot win."

Raiden Mei: "..."

That really hit a nerve, my dear artist.

Mei admitted she was a bit weak, but after becoming the Herrscher of Thunder, she was still very strong, wasn't she?

Couldn't you have at least saved me some face?

Pardofelis: "It's fine, Elysia-sis has our back anyway. Sister Snake won't be able to kill Sister Mei."

Elysia: "Pardo, I like what you said. But Mei is quite the naughty girl, running around in a dangerous place like the Previous Era Elysian Realm, only for me to clean up the mess in the end."

Raiden Mei: "Um... I'm sorry."

Mei herself was also very confused. It seemed that after becoming the Herrscher of Thunder, she had suddenly become much braver.

If you put the current Mei against Mobius, the first thought in her mind would be to call for backup or run away.

But look at herself in the Previous Era Elysian Realm.

Facing such a huge Serpent, such a powerful Mobius, she just charged right in, acting like a reckless fool.

Theresa: "Now that you mention it, I find it strange too. Mei is usually such a gentle child, yet she would charge in recklessly. Was she overconfident in her own strength?"

Himeko Murata: "It was probably her determination to save Kiana."

Joining World Serpent meant there was no turning back.

To help Kiana control the Herrscher Core, she had to eliminate Honkai. Mei's resolve wouldn't allow her to stagnate.

She could only move forward step by step, even if danger and despair lay ahead, she couldn't turn back.

Kiana: "Wuwuwu, Mei, I'm so touched! Today I'm going to eat ten bowls of food made by Mei."

Raiden Mei: "Are you trying to turn your sorrow into appetite?"

Mei smiled helplessly. Kiana, that idiot, always made it hard to know what to say to her.

Although her decision to join World Serpent now seemed like that of an irredeemable idiot.

Himeko Murata: "Mei, helping Kiana is not wrong, but you must also cherish your own life. If one day Kiana is reborn, but it's at the cost of your life, do you think she would be happy?"

Himeko gently patted Kiana's head, then patted Mei's.

The destinies her two students carried were too heavy. One was the Herrscher of the Void, the other the Herrscher of Thunder, yet they valued each other's lives above all else.

This cruel fate, and the belief in sacrificing everything for loved ones, gave her a headache.

Raiden Mei: "I've noted it down, Teacher Himeko."

Himeko Murata: "It's good that you know. In the future, if you encounter someone you can't beat, remember to ask for help or find us. You can't just charge in like you did in the Previous Era Elysian Realm."

Mei nodded, taking Himeko Murata's words to heart.

She swore she would never be reckless again.

If she sensed something was wrong, she would retreat behind the crowd and stay hidden unless absolutely necessary. As long as she was alive, there was still hope!

[The Q&A begins.]

[Question: Mei was so brave in the Previous Era Elysian Realm, fearing nothing, yet she always managed to escape danger. What is the ultimate reason behind this?]

[A: Come on, Mei transformed into the Herrscher of Thunder, she was super brave!]

[B: Mei actually lived until the Post-Honkai world!]

[C: Elysia was protecting her in the Previous Era Elysian Realm, so she had nothing to fear and could fight anyone!]

[D: After defeating the Herrscher of the Void on the rooftop, Mei absorbed the pufferfish attribute from her and became arrogant.]

Raiden Mei: "Pufferfish attribute? What's that?"

Another question about the Previous Era Elysian Realm, but it left Mei completely bewildered.

If you were talking about how to cook or eat pufferfish, Mei could handle it with a swift hand, dominating the kitchen.

But when it came to this "pufferfish attribute," she felt quite ignorant.

Elysia: "It's because pufferfish easily inflate, puffing up when touched. So cute!"

Kiana: "I understand the logic, but what does this have to do with me? Am I arrogant?"

Impossible.

She, Kiana, was a true intellectual. She never cheated on exams; instead, she used an eraser to shake for the answers to decide the outcome.

Besides, confidence without strength is what true arrogance is.

Kiana, armed with an ancestral baseball bat, fought her way from Senba Academy to St. Freya Academy. That was a symbol of her strength.

Bronya: "Kiana, how's your Butterfly Fire Spreads training coming along? Are you ready to duel Kevin?"

Kiana: "Hah! Are you doubting me? Once I master it, I'll definitely use the Staff of Homa to knock some sense into that bastard who kidnapped Mei!"

Pardofelis: "..."

The cat heard nothing, the cat knows nothing.

Was this earth-shattering declaration something she could just pry into?

Dueling with Boss Kevin.

Girl, you need to drink less. If there was even a single peanut, you wouldn't be saying this.

Back in the day, she followed Boss Kevin, fighting Honkai, killing Herrschers, from Dusk Street all the way to Fire Moth, mowing down everything in their path.

Kiana hasn't experienced that unreasonable power, but doesn't Pardofelis know it clearly?

Theresa: "I want to know what that Post-Honkai thing is. Could it be something your Fire Moth did?"

Eden: "No, my memories have no impression of it at all, and it logically seems like something from your era."

Bronya: "Director, just think about it. Post-Honkai should refer to the time after Mei entered the Previous Era Elysian Realm, and the long period after that."

Kiana: "I knew Mei was lucky and would definitely be fine in the Previous Era Elysian Realm."

In an instant, not just Raiden Mei, but everyone at St. Freya Academy breathed a sigh of relief.

Mei lived to see the Post-Honkai era, so she definitely wouldn't be harmed in the Previous Era Elysian Realm.

So what was there to fear?

If it were them, they'd beat up all Thirteen Flame-Chasers from start to finish before leaving.

I'm someone who lived to see the Post-Honkai era! .jpg

Chapter 20: Who is the Anti-Entropy Spy?

Elysia: "As expected, time is a beautiful girl's greatest enemy. Years are unforgiving. Of course, I don't have that problem."

Elysia: "Ever since fusing with the hyper-evolutionary factor, my skin has gotten better and better, my body curves have become more elegant even without exercise, and my metabolism is all messed up. It's truly troublesome."

The Pink Fairy touched her hair, putting on a sad expression, as if she was genuinely troubled by such matters.

However, no one believed a word of this obvious bragging!

Raiden Mei: "Ahem, excuse me, do you have any more of that hyper-evolutionary factor?"

Kiana: "Yeah, yeah, if you have extra, remember to save some for me. I have a friend who..."

Bronya: "Idiot Kiana, isn't that friend you're talking about yourself?"

Mei, who hadn't paid much attention to such things before, felt a moment of understanding towards Teacher Himeko's feelings when she heard someone call her an aunt.

She also began to envy Elysia's transformation a little.

Could this hyper-evolutionary factor, which makes girls more beautiful after fusion, really be extracted from a terrifying End-of-Era Honkai Beast?

I suspect your Honkai Beast isn't a proper beast either.

Eden: "Elysia fused with the Honkai Beast [Mahamayuri]. How should I put it... I don't recommend you try it."

Pardofelis: "Because besides Sister Elysia, everyone else basically failed, and not a single one survived the surgery."

In the experiments conducted by Fire Moth, Elysia was the only one who successfully accepted the hyper-evolutionary factor from Mahamayuri and remained unharmed.

This probability made Mahamayuri seem like Cinderella's glass slipper, tailor-made for Elysia.

Raiden Mei: "Farewell, I respectfully decline. I don't have the fortune to enjoy it."

Kiana: "I can't afford to gamble, and I don't want to go on the operating table. I'll go practice my Butterfly Fire Spreads instead."

[The quiz begins.]

[St. Freya has thousands of talents, remove the spies and half are gone. Which of the following is a spy planted in St. Freya Academy by the Anti-Entropy organization?]

[A: Himeko Murata.]

[B: Fu Hua.]

[C: Raiden Mei.]

[D: Bronya.]

Theresa: "Nani? Did I read that wrong?"

The Director, startled, quickly rubbed her eyes, seemingly unable to believe what she was seeing.

Her St. Freya Academy was full of geniuses, a gathering of dragons and phoenixes, and now you're telling me a large portion of them are spies.

Are you trying to fool me?

Elysia: "Alas, I didn't expect so many spies to emerge from a small academy like St. Freya. Is this what they call 'great trees attract the wind'?"

Himeko Murata: "No, I don't think it's that bad. We at St. Freya are just an ordinary school, why would they need to plant spies here?"

Raiden Mei: "I don't believe it either."

What, is Anti-Entropy just bored? Planting spies in St. Freya Academy of all places.

No offense to them, but with Theresa's management skills, she could get any information she wanted. A little persuasion, a little trickery, and it's done.

If they were going to plant spies, they should have put them in Schicksal HQ.

Pardofelis: "But your little St. Freya has already produced two Herrschers, the Herrscher of the Void and the Herrscher of Thunder. The odds of that are lower than a coin landing on its edge."

Raiden Mei: "..."

Kiana: "..."

Theresa: "Ahem, it was an accident, definitely all accidents. It just so happened that two Herrschers appeared. There are all sorts of coincidences in the world, you need to try and understand."

No, no, no, you're making the Director very nervous.

People who know what's going on will be fine, but those who don't might think she, Theresa, is running a Herrscher academy.

Raiden Mei: "Director, shouldn't our priority be finding out who the Anti-Entropy spy is? We must bring the culprit to justice!"

After realizing that Kiana and she herself might face danger in the future, even becoming Herrschers, Raiden Mei had become sensitive to certain things.

Like this Anti-Entropy spy, for example.

Who knew if a part of it wasn't her doing that Kiana became the Herrscher of the Void.

Damn Anti-Entropy spy... Wait!

Mei herself was part of Anti-Entropy.

Raiden Mei: "Uh, I don't think I've even cleared myself of suspicion."

Kiana: "No, Mei, I believe you. You cook for us, you definitely wouldn't be an Anti-Entropy spy."
