Honkai Impact 3rd, a simulator of lifelong regret!

Pain, fear, helplessness, emptiness, regret...

They are clearly alive in this world.

It was clearly on the ground.

Yet you can't feel anything, you can't smell the fragrance of nature, the sweetness of dew, the aroma of flowers, or hear the chirping of sparrows or the songs of birds.

Perhaps only pain can bring a little bit of psychological relief.

I can feel that I am still alive in this world.

I could feel a tiny bit of atonement, purely psychological.

Perhaps this is just a drop in the ocean, or perhaps it is completely meaningless, because the girl is not a bad person who can deceive herself or cover up her sins.

That's really strange.

Incomprehensible.

This is not someone who could be born into this world. In a realistic, cold, and real world, even the most heavenly place or the most saintly person could not have produced such a flawless individual.

It's so romantic...

--No.

Calling it romance is a gross underestimation.

She was practically a fairy who had lived in the fairy moon kingdom since childhood, her whole body immersed in the sweetness and happiness of honey, never having experienced filth and ugliness.

She will share in others' sorrow, joy, and happiness; she will offer help when others are in trouble; she will feel heartache when others are hurt; and she will always be lively and cheerful, with a smile on her face.

Like the wind, free, light, and unrestrained, it seems that no matter what happens, it can be easily overcome; like a flower, it will always bloom, always blossom, and always exude its flawless fragrance.

Only such a person could consider even lies sinful, and be unable to accept things that are commonplace to ordinary people, feeling guilty about them.

This made Mebius instinctively disgusted.

I have a strong aversion to that purity and innocence.

As a realist who pursues evolution regardless of how ugly, dirty, or despicable it may be, I instinctively felt disgusted.

Alicia is capable of such behavior, such words, and such initiative in seeking out others to inflict punishment.

This inherent nature suggests that the girl even believes that escaping is wrong, that escaping is a sinful choice, and that punishing herself is an inappropriate behavior.

I would rather endure, rather bear, this pain that no life can bear, if it numbs the heart of a Herrscher and drives them to madness and despair.

This made someone who had been comfortably escaping since the death of his most important assistant, and who had almost completely abandoned his humanity, feel very uncomfortable.

It instilled a deep-seated loathing and jealousy in someone whose childhood could be described as terrible.

—I really don't know how Jiang Cheng spoiled her back then?

She can transform a Herrscher into a romantic fairy, and a demon who would otherwise bring calamity into a goddess who helps and saves others.

For this kind of person...

Only spiritual punishment is truly terrifying.

Any physical injury would only alleviate the heavy, oppressive pain in her heart, a pain so terrifying that she dared not even look at it.

and so……

"I won't hurt you."

How could someone who would even take their anger out on innocent people, who would ruthlessly devour the inheritance left by their friends, and who would experiment on ordinary people without feeling any remorse, possibly allow others to atone for their sins?

Mebius's dark eyes held only a piercing, mocking smile.

"I would absolutely... absolutely never use you for experiments."

"You just need to tell me your abilities, and I'll test the power a little bit. I guarantee it won't cause you even the slightest harm."

“Your research is of no significance to advancing the experiment; it is absolutely not crucial, so don’t harbor any rosy thoughts about lying on my operating table.”

"Your actions are pointless. Going to my operating table will only slow down my efforts to save Jiangcheng. Instead, you should eat well, drink well, and sleep well. If you don't enjoy yourself every day, I'll deliberately slow down my work~"

"Eh……"

"Eh?"

"Eh!"

……

Seeing the girl who was clearly in a daze, gently biting her rosy lower lip, with a few glistening tears in her eyes, unable even to put on an act, Mebius covered her lips with her slender hand and revealed a smile full of pleasure.

"After all, Miss Alicia..."

"You don't want Jiang Cheng's last wish to be in vain, do you?"

--wonderful.

The perfect young girl was being carelessly kneaded by him.

A few words can trigger a change in mood.

This feeling is so exhilarating, not through force or violence, but through words and reality that bring down the flawless fairies and goddesses.

This is the true meaning of using human power to bring the gods down from their pedestals and using reality to crush ideals.

Their pitiful appearance does indeed evoke feelings of pity.

pity……

—She's gone mad.

Having lost everything, Mebius had long since gone completely mad.

Previously, the only people they could truly spend time with every day were Blanca, who was their assistant. Vilvie and Jiang Cheng lived their lives as a couple. But in the end, as the only three scholars, they were also a community of shared interests, and they would inevitably have to spend time together to chat and discuss things from time to time.

No matter how different they are in their daily lives, or how great the differences are between the regions they are studying.

Because we live together, we will inevitably run into each other.

No matter how far away they are, they are still here.

Blanca is within easy reach; if needed, she can simply be called out or visited in the next room, and she will appear at any time.

If you need help anywhere, you can just call Jiangcheng and bring Vilvi over.

Aside from a small portion of the time, this method is foolproof.

—It's a sense of peace that comes from the bottom of your heart.

Despite his usual coldness towards Jiang Cheng and his completely different hobbies and behavioral principles, the boy would still send him a gift every year on his birthday.

—My birthday, which I almost forgot myself.

Blanca was nominally his assistant.

In reality, the two are completely equal, with no difference in status.

Everyone is free. No one has the right to oppress another person, nor does anyone have the right to take something away from another person.

Mebius never made any demands or threats against Blanca because she was his assistant.

Even so, Blanca will provide precise assistance.

Those deep blue, ocean-like pupils never left her gaze.

Only now...

Only now...

Mebius lost those friends in his life.

Those eyes were no longer in sight; the boy was nowhere to be found in the laboratory.

Even with a large number of experimental samples in the laboratory, there is a strange, empty feeling, and you can no longer touch them even if you reach out.

It should be a good thing that you don't have to consider Blanca's share when cooking instant noodles.

Now all I need to do is take care of myself.

Something strange...

Feeling a strange emotion stirring within her, an emotion that was disrupting the flow of her thoughts and tugging at her heartstrings, the girl frowned slightly, pressed her hands against her chest, and adopted a very typical cold posture.

—She is not a weak person.

At the age of nine, he was able to abandon everything and run away on his own.

Now, relying on his own talent and ability, he has grown into a top scholar, a level that even the Mu Continent must take seriously.

It's Vilvi and Jiang Cheng who need to adjust their moods, but it seems like she's starting to feel the same way as them.

Depressive emotions are completely immune to evil.

She doesn't need anyone to understand her or anyone to walk alongside her. She just needs to keep evolving towards the person she wants. Only the weak and incompetent are limited by their emotions and feel sad and upset because they can't be understood.

As for bottom lines, they've long since been thrown aside.

What's the point of blaming innocent people?

What's wrong with shifting the blame to an innocent person?

——It doesn’t matter.

Anyway, he is a demon scientist, known as a demon and a viper. Despite being a veteran, his status is declining. His current power was obtained by sacrificing the lives of two of his three only friends.

Anyway, everyone in the world who could understand me and knew my true goals is dead.

and so……

Alicia wants to atone for her sins and relieve her psychological pressure.

Dream on!

75. To have all of Jiangcheng to yourself, is that your wish?
