Scrolling through short videos and seeing embarrassing moments, has even the Mi Home ecosystem broke

What is that damned light screen saying?! How dare it say that Aponia is his good mother from a thousand eons?!

Although Aponia usually steps in to control his flames when he erupts in anger, Thousand Calamity never admits to this!

Although there is a saying among the many heroes that "Qian Jie is such a good baby" which makes Qian Jie furious, it is still impossible for Qian Jie to suppress his rage when it is written so bluntly in the title of the light screen!

"Qian Jie, please calm down."

However, just as Qianjie's anger was about to erupt, that gentle yet somewhat cold voice came, instantly dissipating Qianjie's furious roar.

Alicia and Mebius, standing to the side, seemed to have anticipated this scene, each smiling without any fear of Qianjie's rage.

While one reason is that they are strong enough to withstand a thousand tribulations, the more important reason is...

"A thousand calamities' good mother," Aponia is right here.

However, Alicia's smile was one of warmth, thinking, "It's so wonderful to see such a loving mother and son," while Möbius's sly grin was one of gossip, thinking, "It's so great to see Qianjie, just like the title says, being tamed like a good son," and enjoying the drama.

Faced with the two men's smiles, each with its own hidden agenda yet equally irritating, Qianjie breathed heavily, his chest heaving like a bellows as he desperately tried to control his rage.

Because of the restrictions of Aponia's "Word of Power," even if Qianjie wanted to punch those two guys right now, he couldn't. He could only snort angrily and leave with deafening footsteps!

Out of sight, out of mind; out of hearing, out of mind. Qianjie simply refused to look at that damned light screen and refused to stay near those despicable guys!

Facing Qianjie's angry figure, which resembled a "rebellious son running away from home," Aponia smiled slightly and murmured again, "Qianjie has been getting more and more obedient lately," words that would surely enrage Qianjie if he heard them.

With Qianjie's departure, things quieted down a bit, and the eyes of the Fire-Chasing Moth heroes once again focused on the light screen.

…………

As the screen switched away from the third playback where Mei was being taken advantage of by Alicia, the image that appeared on the screen was two cute chibi-style characters.

Just like the adorable, chubby-cheeked Q version of Alicia we saw before in "Alicia's Little Horn".

Next to the chibi version of Alicia, there is another slightly more adorable chibi version dressed in a nun's habit.

The pristine black and white nun's habit, her beautiful and alluring figure...

It was Aponia who had saved Mei when she was almost killed by Senja.

Chapter 179: The Final Chapter of the Lawgiver of Man?

In the scene, Aponia and Alicia seem to be meeting for the first time. When Alicia's chibi character approaches, Aponia's chibi character shows some resistance and avoidance.

It seems that for Aponia, contact with others was an unbearable guilt.

However, the chibi version of Alicia in the picture has the same bright smile and touching energy as the real Alicia. Facing Aponia, who was trying to avoid her, the chibi version of Alicia quickly moved closer without giving her a chance.

"Hello, Aponia?"

Alicia, a chibi version of herself, blocked the retreat of the Aponia chibi version, moved closer to her, and forcibly kept this adorable older sister there. Then, as always, she greeted her with a bright and sunny smile.

Despite her desire to dodge Alicia's enthusiastic greeting, Aponia's kind and gentle nature ultimately led her to sigh and respond to Alicia's warmth.

Aponia seemed intent on giving a brief response and leaving quickly, but it was precisely this pause that allowed her to deeply appreciate Alicia's brilliance—

"I know that the Firemoth doesn't have a good reputation outside..."

"But in my opinion, everyone here is just an ordinary person doing their best to ensure the continuation of civilization, right?"

Facing Aponia, who appears to have just joined the Flamemoth, and who is still quite reserved and wary of everyone, Alicia, as a "veteran," naturally has to do something.

So she moved closer to Aponia, smiling as she explained the rumors surrounding the Firemoth, trying to put Aponia at ease.

In Alicia's words, the warriors who fought against the Honkai, and their actions that might have been somewhat extreme at times, were interpreted in a very benevolent way as "protecting the continuation of human civilization."

While Alicia's point was valid, and Aponia, being a kind and gentle person herself, could understand, however...

Regarding the way the Firemoth deals with those suffering from Honkai... the purpose of the Firemoth recruiting her... Aponia still harbors resentment.

Seeing Aponia's unease, Alicia smiled gently, conveying her sweetness and warmth into Aponia's heart:

"Trust me, okay?"

"Here, this is a handshake to show good friendship, okay?"

In order to put Aponia at ease in this newcomer to the Fire Moth, Alicia conveyed the warmth of her hands to her through a "handshake".

As Alicia so naturally and warmly took the initiative to shake hands, the chibi versions of Alicia and Aponia in the picture suddenly transformed into the normal postures they usually saw.

However, the one tightly holding those hands filled with confusion, hesitation, and unease in the picture is a smiling, radiant pink fairy lady.

The one who was comforted, and who was slightly surprised and incredulous, was the nun Aponia, who listened to others' troubles and offered advice.

…………

Upon seeing Alicia holding her hands tightly in the light screen, Aponia outside the screen recalled the scene from back then.

Even after 50,000 years, Aponia can still recall the scene when this beautiful fairy girl comforted her so gently and considerately when she first entered the Firemoth.

Just as shown in the light screen, the pink fairy stood beside her without any hesitation, offering warmth:

"Let's chat about anything, Aponia~"

"Miss Alicia..."

Upon seeing Alicia's closeness in the scene, Aponia, after her initial surprise and confusion, became somewhat evasive.

This is because of Aponia's past experiences, because she is deeply aware of her sins. So even though Alicia approaches her so passionately, Aponia is still unwilling to get too close to Alicia, fearing that she might hurt her.

However, Alicia's reaction to Aponia's evasiveness remained consistently enthusiastic—

"Don't be so formal, just call me Alice."

Alicia smiled slightly, indicating that Aponia didn't need to be so reserved, and even prepared an intimate nickname.

The gentleness and kindness emanating from Alicia, and the touching compassion, were unbelievable even to a nun like Aponia.

Even Aponia, who had once served as the director of a sanatorium and sheltered many homeless and pitiful people, had never seen such a dazzling light.

In Alicia's presence, Aponia even felt somewhat ashamed of herself.

"You...aren't you afraid of my mother?"

Faced with Alicia's enthusiastic approach, offering help, comforting her, and even taking her hands, Aponia looked at her with particular bewilderment.

However, when faced with Aponia's question, Alicia acted as if she didn't understand, feigning ignorance and displaying a puzzled expression, playfully asking in return:

"Fear? Do you think I'll keep my distance from you because I'm worried about being overshadowed by your beauty?"

Aponia looked somewhat helpless at Alicia's feigned ignorance, watching as Alicia's playful response was completely different from the answer Aponia wanted to ask.

Hehe~ No way, I like beautiful girls the most~

Alicia continued to utter the same praise for pretty girls as always, as if nothing else mattered to her as long as the girl was pretty.

However, those who know Alicia well know that there is a reason why she is pretending to be confused.

In the scene, Aponia, who was only meeting Alicia for the first time, seemed not to understand this point and sighed softly at Alicia, who was pretending to be ignorant.

For Aponia, who had just joined the Firemoth, she was a sinner. Even with Alicia's warm smiles, she couldn't laugh like Alicia did.

To confront her sins, Aponia decided not to play dumb with Alicia any longer and directly addressed the bloody topic—

“Miss Alicia… since you know my past, you should know what I want to ask, right?”

"I am here because I am a sinner about to be judged."

"I brought disaster."

Aponia recounted her sins, her eyes involuntarily closing as she tried to pray and atone for them.

However, her hands were tightly clasped in Alicia's. Aponia, who wanted to clench her own hands in prayer, was stopped by Alicia and reluctantly opened her eyes.

Aponia, filled with sorrow and self-reproach, was as beautiful yet fragile as an ice sculpture, her voice filled with sorrow and lamentation.

"If I hadn't taken in the patient suffering from Honkai... perhaps none of this would have happened."

"My crimes are too numerous to count..."

………………

………………

As Aponia herself stated in the light curtain, even now, fifty thousand years later, Aponia still hides herself deep within the Golden Courtyard.

Because she was fully aware of her sins, sins that began when she gained her power, and sins that, after the sanatorium, led to new and unforgivable transgressions…

Therefore, Aponia could only lock herself in that deepest place to prevent her abilities from bringing disaster to the outside world again.

At that time, Aponia did not understand Alicia's eager approach through the light screen.

Even now, Aponia remains somewhat confused.

After all, at that time she was the "director of a sanatorium that housed many patients with Honkai syndrome" and a dangerous person who had "close contact with many people with terminal illnesses" and could potentially infect others.

However, after spending so much time with Alicia, Aponia's doubts are gradually being resolved.

Aponia gradually understood why Alicia was able to approach her without fear, and why she could hold her hand so warmly and naturally.

One reason is... because of the "Herrscher of Humanity" mentioned in the light screen, Alicia is naturally not afraid of "Honkai energy infection".

Of course, the more important reason is that Alicia's heart, like her appearance, is so beautiful and kind.

Alicia's approach was to help her resolve her inner conflicts, allowing her to avoid harboring resentment or even psychological trauma about what happened before she joined the Firemoth...

Because of "that sanatorium"...that sanatorium that was completely wiped out...

It was through Aponia's painstaking efforts and constant hiding that she managed to create this refuge for the wounded and sick.

…………

Within the light screen, Alicia listened quietly to Aponia's heartfelt lament about her sins, lost in thought.

Then, to Aponia's utter astonishment, Alicia simply smiled as she heard her "crime":

"A sinner? But before me is just an ordinary girl filled with sorrow."

Even as Aponia tried her best to explain her sins and recount the punishment she deserved, Alicia held onto her hand tightly.

Just as she couldn't understand Aponia's "sins," or rather, it was as if Alicia simply didn't care about the "sins" Aponia bore.

Because Alicia has eyes that can see beauty—
