Chapter 162

It means she, like Apponia, loves children. Griseo's personality is almost like the Mystic Eyes; she sees things more clearly than adults.

[Congratulations to Griseo for receiving the reward: Concept Card - Flame-Chasers Power.]

[Description: Using this Concept Card, you can borrow and switch the power of other Flame-Chasers within one hour, but these powers cannot be stacked.]

Elysia: "Can't they be stacked? What a shame, I was just about to think Griseo would be the strongest among us."

Pardofelis: "In any case, combining the power of thirteen Flame-Chasers is too exaggerated. Although mine is negligible."

Chapter 265 Who Backstabbed Mobius?

Each of the Flame-Chasers is a master; in terms of strength, apart from Elysia and Kevin, it's really hard to say who is better than whom.

But there was one thing Pardo was very clear about.

Pardofelis: "Little Griseo, even if you encounter danger and need to borrow power in the future, don't borrow mine, okay?"

Griseo: "Oh, I see."

Pardofelis: "Good to know, Griseo a good girl."

In terms of combat power, Pardo felt that even with her own strength, Griseo alone.

The energy contained within that tiny paintbrush truly lives up to its name of Flame-Chasers.

Kiana: "Borrowing the power of Flame-Chasers, I want to see Griseo wielding the Fehu to cut down Honkai Beast."

Elysia: "No, Griseo is a gentle girl, you can't be so rough with her. Mine will do."

Griseo: "Yes, you should discuss things properly before borrowing anything."

What a good child!

Welt: "If that's the understanding, then the effect of this Concept Card isn't actually that special, um... relatively speaking."

At least compared to the Concept Card Yang Sit-Ups in his hand, it is still slightly inferior.

Theresa: "Welt, do you mean that borrowing Flame-Chasers's power requires Flame-Chasers's own consent?"

Welt: "It's borrowed after all."

Elysia: "It's alright, Griseo can borrow it if she needs it. Of course, we should punish the bad guys when we encounter danger!"

Griseo: "Punish the bad guys!"

Little Griseo crossed her arms, seemingly influenced by the colors of some other people.

[In the scene, Raiden Mei enters Griseo's room. Cosmo is not there; Griseo is accompanied by Raven.]

"No, let's use a different way of addressing me. I'm not that old yet."

Raven sighed, somewhat troubled by the issue of how to address Griseo.

"Okay, Mom."

"?"

Raiden Mei looked completely bewildered. "You guys are making fast progress."

Has she stopped contacting Raven lately, or what? When did their relationship reach this point?

"Now you have your chance to make fun of me, young lady."

The Raven sighed.

Griseo is a wonderful child, well-behaved and lovable, but sometimes she says strange things, and if you stay around her for too long, you might start to resemble her.

"I don't know why she insists on calling me that. Is it because she spends a lot of time with the children?"

The Raven turned to look at Mei.

"Oh, by the way, Griseo and I were just talking about the monster we encountered in the studio. I never imagined it was one of her paintings."

"Yes, Lady Mei."

Griseo turned around and greeted him, then buried herself in her painting again.

"Ugh, it's turned into my image again. How awful. I don't want her to draw anything that's unacceptable."

"You should also be mindful of how much time you spend with her."

Raiden Mei reminded her.

Judging from Griseo's current appearance, she must have been in contact with Raven for some time, otherwise she wouldn't have said "Lady Mei."

"Wait, what you mean is... that those monsters were created after Griseo was influenced by someone else?"

"Well, let me make this clear first, I'm not responsible for the accuracy, but... she only paints after she's been exposed to something. That is, she lets the colors left by others detach and settle onto the paper."

"Is it any different from a regular painting?" Raiden Mei asked.

Raven thought for a moment, "Although these are just rumors, it is said that although her paintings are ordinary objects that can be easily destroyed, they can have some kind of influence on the viewer's perception."

"And the specific impact depends on who you're interacting with."

"Eden told me that Griseo's painting, which she left behind after a Chakravartin, supposedly caused an entire city to be destroyed in internal strife."

"Is that so?" Raiden Mei pondered, her head bowed. "Because the Previous Era Elysian Realm is a space constructed from cognition, she can also create near-physical monsters here?"

"That's right, but it doesn't necessarily mean it's a monster."

To be precise, it is a manifestation of a person's inner self.

For example, what they saw before was Cosmo's inner world.

"He's not simple to make the monster inside him so compliant," Raven remarked.

"In that case, I'm really looking forward to seeing what Griseo will draw next."

Raiden Mei changed the subject. "But is it really okay for us to talk about these things in front of her?"

"What, you really treat her like a child?"

The Raven smiled, the meaning of its tone self-evident.

After all, Griseo was a Flame-Chasers, and her experiences far surpassed those of the two of them combined.

The video ends here.

Raiden Mei: "To think you could even get this kind of information from Eden, Raven. You and Eden seem to get along quite well."

Raven: "Who knows? Maybe if I go to Eden for drinks every day, we'll get to know each other better after a couple of times."

Eden: "Wine is always welcome; fine wine is easy to find, but a true friend is hard to come by."

Raven: "Of course, everyone knows that the wine in your Eden is all treasured."

Raven's wealth is already considerable, enough to buy a private island, but compared to Eden, it's like showing off one's limited skills.

A rich woman's wine—why not take advantage of it?

Raven: "Griseo, let's put the 'Mom' title aside for now. I'm far from that age. How about Big Sister Natasha?"

Griseo: "Natasha... sister?"

Raven: "Yes, that's it, Griseo a good girl!"

Feeling elated, Raven felt a sense of accomplishment, believing that her actions had prevented a lovely child from going astray.

Theresa: "I remember Griseo has been painting ever since she came back. Since her paintings are so dangerous, are you sure it's okay?"

Elysia: "It's impossible to say it's not dangerous, but it should be fine, since not all colors are harmful."

Eden: "Griseo once gave us some paintings, um... let me think where I put them."

Pardofelis: "Mine is still here. It's Griseo painting, I've always treasured it... Look, it's this 'Street Corner at Dusk'."

A painting Griseo did for Pardofelis depicts an ordinary street corner, which should be busiest at dusk, near sunset.

For some reason, only a few stray cats walked through the painting, and there wasn't a single human in sight.

Elysia: "Pardo, it's amazing you've kept this with you the whole time."

Pardofelis: "Hehe... actually, I just put it in the corner of the store and only just remembered it."

The painting is good, but the desolate atmosphere, even the cat's figure looks so haggard, is not something Pardo likes.

[Q&A begins.]

Who betrayed Mobius?

[A: Fu Hua.]

[B: Danzhu.]

[C: Klein.]

[D: Mobius.]

Chapter 266 Vill-V's Budget Cut

Danzhu: "Wait, I'm not having it! Why is my name on the list but Cang Xuan's?"

A new problem arose, and Danzhu became restless.

She and Cang Xuan are both two of Dr. Mobius's most capable assistants in his laboratory, so why is she the only one whose reputation has been tarnished?

No, she would never betray Dr. Mobius!

Cang Xuan: "Danzhu, I have a deep bond with the Doctor and Senior Sister Klein. It's impossible for me to betray either of them."

Danzhu: "Do you think I know how to do that?!"

Danzhu jumped up in anger.

She didn't care about the system harming her reputation; after all, whose reputation system hasn't harmed them before?

But there was only one thing that made her unable to tolerate it any longer.

When he was persecuting himself, he didn't even try to take Cang Xuan with him.

Isn't it said that best friends share both good times and bad?

Theresa: "Mobius was betrayed? Who did it, and why is Mobius's own name mentioned in the Q&A?"

Is this considered betraying oneself?

Dean, you've certainly broadened your horizons. You guys from Flame-Chasers really know how to have fun.

Sue: "Perhaps... one of the Mobius refers to Memory Body of the Previous Era Elysian Realm."

Raiden Mei: "Can Memory Body interfere with reality?"

Sue: "Unfortunately, it's not possible, but if conditions allow, there might be a small margin of error, after all, she is Mobius."

With Mobius's talent, it's not surprising that she can cause any trouble. It would be suspicious if you said she didn't cause any trouble.

Raiden Mei: "That's true, she had planned to use my body to leave Previous Era Elysian Realm."

Kiana: "So, it was the Memory Body of Mobius who betrayed the real Mobius?"

That doesn't sound very plausible.

Who is Mobius? He is the one who created the Stigmata Prototype, a being who is close to Infinity.

Bronya: "It's also possible that the real Mobius betrayed the Memory Body."

Raiden Mei: "No way, the more I listen, the more mysterious it sounds..."

Welt: "Perhaps to put it another way, only someone who is also Mobius could have the possibility of betraying Mobius."

A ruthless individual who created Stigmata Prototype and implanted them into the human genome.

If you don't have some Mobius skills, you'll probably get played and killed without even knowing how.

Theresa: "Even someone as strong as Mobius can be betrayed."

Kiana: "So, is it the main Memory Body, or the Memory Body betraying the main body?"

Danzhu: "Regardless of who betrayed whom, the answer is already obvious: it's you, Mobius!"

[Congratulations to Danzhu for receiving the reward: Life Coin Trial Version.]

Danzhu: "Oh, I've been waiting for so long, I finally got it."
