Chapter 277

She has also suffered unwarranted malice, being deceived, exploited, and betrayed by them.

At this moment, Elysia could not understand why such contradictory things could coexist in the human mind; she believed that the myriad lights she had seen must exist.

"If there is no such thing as Elysian Realm in the world, then let me create one!"

Under a vast, starry sky, beside a city of towering buildings, Elysia made a promise and stepped into the city ahead.

The video ends here.

Pardofelis: "Little Sister Elysia was so cute, and traveling the world alone was really daring. I just don't have that kind of courage."

Traveling the world in search of one's dream Elysian Realm sounds like a really great idea.

But Pardofelis thought about it and decided that she should just live her own quiet life, and that she could just lie in the warm sun after waking up.

She's not as powerful Elysia.

Elysia: "Yes, it was truly a wonderful memory. Although there were some hardships along the way, the outcome was good."

Although she didn't find the Elysian Realm, she saw the true nature of the world under the lights of countless homes, and witnessed the complexities of the human heart, which strengthened her belief in creating Elysian Realm.

Kiana: "I don't think your experiences can be considered just occasionally difficult."

Kiana scratched her head, saying that traveling the world sounded nice.

But a little girl carries her backpack and wanders the world, destitute and without income.

Ultimately, isn't that just being a wanderer?!

Kiana had a similar experience and knew how much effort it took for a little girl to travel such a long distance and see so many people and things.

To be honest, at Elysia's age at the time, she had it much worse than her.

Elysia: "Oh? Miss Kiana seems to have had a similar experience?"

Kiana: "Yeah, actually I was a homeless person for a while. I often didn't have enough to eat, and I occasionally had to find odd jobs. On rainy days, I didn't even have a place to take shelter from the rain... No matter how you look at it, it wasn't exactly fun, was it?"

If it weren't for the monstrous strength inherited from the Kaslana Family, Kiana doubted she would have starved to death on the way.

Elysia: "After all, that's life. Life is full of ups and downs, good and bad, sunshine and rain. There's no such thing as a life without any constant smooth sailing."

Kiana: "Yeah, you're right. Eat when there's food, drink when there's drink, so you don't go hungry when there's nothing to eat!"

It's decided.

Even if Mei doesn't cook today, or even this whole week, Kiana will still eat eight bowls of rice to fill her stomach!

Himeko Murata: "Kiana, what you said makes a lot of sense, but I feel like you and Elysia are on completely different wavelengths."

How did we suddenly start talking about food?

Raiden Mei: "Um... actually, I'm hungry too."

In the Death Space, Sakura's training for Raiden Mei has come to an end.

Raiden Mei felt that the training she had undergone in the previous few hours was more tiring than a year of training at the academy. Sakura kept flashing around, and she was starting to hallucinate.

Moreover, he was paranoid, always feeling like someone was standing behind him with a knife.

She was also hungry, and if she didn't eat soon, Raiden Mei wouldn't even have the strength to cook.

Raiden Mei: "Where's the kitchen in Death Space? I can make anything you want to eat."

Pardofelis: "Sister Mei is cooking? Oh! I'm suddenly starting to look forward to it."

Vill-V: "Hehe? Little Pardo, if Hundred Flavors hears you say that, she'll be sad."

Pardofelis: "Sister Vill-V, don't you want to taste the delicacies from the next era?"

Vill-V: "... Okay, you've convinced me."

Since it's not like she's the one cooking, might as well eat it. It's a good opportunity for Hundred Flavors to come out and observe Raiden Mei's cooking skills; I'm sure she'll be very interested.

Sakura: "Miss Mei, learning is like rowing against the current; if you don't move forward, you fall behind. If you want to see results in a short time, I think you need to focus your attention on training as much as possible."

Raiden Mei: "This..."

Pardofelis: "Ahem! Sister Sakura, Sister Mei is still just an ordinary person. She hasn't mastered Herrscher power, nor is she Fusion Warrior. Training her like that would be too much for her body."

Pardofelis swore that she was genuinely worried about Raiden Mei's health and had no intention of taking advantage of the situation to freeload.

Sakura: "I see, that was my oversight. But I can't help you with improving your physical fitness."

Pardofelis: "Then there's even less chance we can be of helping."

The Flame-Chasers are still very enthusiastic about Raiden Mei.

After all, she was a guest from the Previous Era Elysian Realm, and she even helped Elysia fulfill her dream, so her favorability rating was immediately maxed out.

If it's just about helping Raiden Mei increase her strength, I believe all the Flame-Chasers would be willing to help.

If you don't believe me, Raiden Mei can try asking the most difficult person to communicate with Flame-Chasers, for help. I believe even Chakravartin would be enthusiastic in helping her train.

Elysia: "This is difficult. If her physical abilities aren't up to par, I don't think teaching Mei to control the Herrscher's power will be a quick process, will it?"

Vill-V: "If only someone could help Miss Mei improve her physical fitness."

In an instant, the Flame-Chasers all turned their heads to look at the person who clearly had the ability but had remained silent.

Mobius: "?!!"

The Mobius was puzzled, several question marks appearing above its head.

She felt the problem wasn't with her, but with all of you.

Mobius: "Why are you looking at me? What does this have to do with me?"

Chapter 451 How many identities has Vill-V forged?

To be fair, Raiden Mei is such a special Herrscher from Current Era, still retaining her self-awareness. Such an excellent guinea pig is right in front of us.

Mobius felt he'd already been quite lenient with Elysia by not even bothering to drag her into the lab, had he?

You actually asked her if she was willing to help? Are you trying to push Raiden Mei, this little guinea pig, into a snake pit?

Pardofelis: "Damn it, Sister Snake... cough cough, Sister Mei, if you're really determined, I can guarantee you'll come out of the lab alive."

As for what will happen after she emerges from this ordeal, Pardofelis is not so sure.

In any case, they can become Fusion Warrior, and their combat power will leap forward dramatically.

Raiden Mei: "Now that you mention it, I'm even more scared. Besides, let's forget about Fusion Warrior; choosing the right Honkai Energy factor is a hassle."

If possible, Raiden Mei doesn't want to owe too many favors, especially to Mobius.

Mobius: "In that case, get lost. I have no interest in you now. Get far away from me, and you'd better not appear in my sight!"

Elysia: "What is this? A friendly reminder?"

Mobius: "This is a serious warning!"

It's a lie to say that he's not interested in Raiden Mei, but it's not to the point where Mobius would want to make other Flame-Chasers unhappy.

She had poured all her savings into cultivating the second-stage healing virus during that fight with Vill-V, and she still hasn't recovered.

[Q&A begins.]

[Raiden Mei is going through Elysia's memories and comes across the section about the Flame-Chasers. How many identities did Vill-V use before declaring war on the Fire Moth?]

[A: Fourteen.]

[B: Fifteen.]

[C: Sixteen.]

[D: Seventeen.]

Raiden Mei: "Vill-V, you did this before?"

In the same Chat Group, many of the Flame-Chasers' memories were also exposed. They thought they knew enough about the Flame-Chasers, but unexpectedly another revelation came out.

Vill-V: "Uh, that was a long, long time ago. Thinking back now, I was probably a bit like Mei back then, a bit of Mei person with delusions of grandeur)."

Raiden Mei: "I understand."

After all, this is a public declaration of war against the entire Fire Moth organization. This is not a level of magnanimity that ordinary people can possess. Only someone with a touch of chuunibyou (a Japanese term for someone with delusions of grandeur) would do such a thing.

In comparison, Raiden Mei felt she still had a slight edge!

Himeko Murata: "No, no, no, declaring war on a global organization is starting to border on arrogance, isn't it?"

Fortunately, none of her students showed any signs of developing in that direction, otherwise Teacher Himeko really wouldn't have been able to control such troublemakers.

Vill-V: "After all, I'm a genius. How can I surprise the audience if I don't do something sensational?"

Mobius: "Heh? Your so-called surprise is being caught and locked in a cell, and having to rely on others to fight for you to get an opportunity?"

Vill-V: "That's why I don't want to bring this up."

Vill-V always remembered how Elysia treated her, as she was also one of the owners of the crystal flower given to her by Elysia.

There's nothing I'm afraid to admit.

However, as a genius Magician, having his past misdeeds brought up is a little embarrassing.

Vill-V: "An individual's strength is ultimately weak. Even if I am a genius and create a mystery that no one can solve, I will eventually be defeated by the power of the collective."

As a Trickster, Vill-V can pull off elaborate schemes and even transform herself into an expert, single-handedly creating drones ahead of their time.

One person's strength ultimately failed, but she created considerable trouble for the Fire Moth.

Especially when they learned that she had no backing, no organization, and had been all alone from the beginning, the expressions on the faces of those high-ranking officials were priceless.

Elysia: "So, Vill-V, do you remember how many identities you forged back then?"

Vill-V: "Uh... would you believe me if I said I don't remember?"

Elysia: "..."

To this question, Vill-V responded only with silence and the eye-rolls from everyone.

Vill-V: "Don't blame me, who would bother remembering such things? Do you even remember how many bowls of rice you ate on a certain day last year?"

As Trickster, it's perfectly reasonable that such a petty trick as identity forgery would fade from memory after it's exposed, right?

Mobius: "Sixteen times, I remember it clearly!"

[Correct answer.]

[Congratulations to Mobius for winning the reward: Life Coin.]

Vill-V: "Dr. Mobius, it's amazing you still remember something like this; I'd completely forgotten about it myself."

Mobius: "Hmph, don't you know how much trouble you caused the Fire Moth back then?"

Not to mention how many false identities she forged, Mobius even remembered the number of times Vill-V had escaped from prison and the model of the drone she manufactured.

The trouble that Vill-V caused back then, while not exactly crippling for the Fire Moth, certainly cost them a great deal of manpower, resources, and money.

And all of this was accomplished by one person, through one lie after another.

At that time, entrusted by Elysia, Mobius made great efforts to rescue Vill-V, and he could hardly forget the effort he put in.

Mobius grew angrier the more he thought about it. Raiden Mei and Vill-V —just thinking about them made him feel uncomfortable.

She simply went back to the lab and locked herself away, wanting to avoid seeing or hearing anything.

[In the scene, Raiden Mei enters another memory of Elysia, and what comes into view is a pitch-black room.]

Two young girls were sitting inside, Mobius and Vill-V.

However, at this moment, Vill-V was wearing chains and shackles, while Mobius had come to visit her during the interrogation.

Elysia had barely stepped into the laboratory when she heard one of the voices.

"Get out. This isn't a place where unauthorized personnel can enter."

"Don't be so formal, dear Mobius."

Elysia ignored the laboratory owner's advice, put her hands on her hips, and walked step by step to Mobius.

"Speaking of which, you haven't even told me her name yet."

Elysia was referring to the woman standing before her, Vill-V.

The Magician, captured by the Fire Moth, is now in a specially built prison for her.
