Honkai Impact 3rd, a simulator of lifelong regret!

The ending might not have been so tragic.

If I could capture the sadness in Jiangcheng's heart, I could help the teenagers in distress to return to the sunshine.

He might not have left.

in case……

in case……

in case……

No one in the world thought they would lose the sun until the moment it was truly lost, at which point they realized just how important it was.

What right do they have to interfere?

Perhaps they've already left with Vervière.

Perhaps Jiangcheng is already living the ordinary yet happy life he deserves.

Perhaps, young man...

[—Are they not a good match for each other?]

【…】

That's right...

【Yes. 】

【Yes! 】

[You haven't had a close interaction with Vervi yet. Perhaps that girl and Jiang Cheng weren't a good match; she just happened to be helping the boy.]

You made a decision, one that goes against your personality, but never against your heart.

This is completely wild speculation, it can't even be called wild speculation anymore, it's simply saying the opposite of what it means, and even denying its own rationality.

What does it mean to offer just the right amount of help?

Being able to accurately sense the difficulties a boy is facing and offer help is essentially proof of a compatible personality. Moreover, this is not just personal help, but a mutual assistance initiative first initiated by Jiang Cheng.

Help each other in times of disaster, and lend a hand when someone is in trouble.

This is a perfect relationship that almost only exists in fairy tales.

Deny this obvious thing.

This is not something I should do.

A lovely girl shouldn't interfere in other people's relationships; what she should really do is offer her blessings to beautiful and pure love.

Those eyes, which had also lost some of their luster and looked rather dejected and dim, didn't seem to be surprised at all.

No one can remain calm and composed in the face of such sadness and oppression.

"did not expect……"

"Did I really make such a big mistake?"

The girl's fingertips gently touched the abundant fruit, and even through the thick bulletproof layer, the pain emanating from her heart could be clearly felt.

Complete empathy; able to perfectly experience all emotions and repressions.

This feeling is genuine and completely unreserved.

No matter how foolish, stupid, or arrogant one may be, it is impossible to ignore one's own feelings, experiences, and everything one has gone through.

[Option 1: You observe Jiang Cheng and Wilvi from a private perspective... Try to minimize your influence, avoid hurting the boy, and don't involve any emotions; simply observe everything about him.]

[Option Two: You observe Jiang Cheng and Wei Erwei from a private perspective... wholeheartedly hoping that the young man's life will not encounter setbacks again, and that his life should never again suffer from neglect and sorrow.]

Option three: You secretly observe Jiang Cheng and Wei Erwei from a private perspective... waiting for them to show signs of discord, giving you a reason to approach the boy again, and perhaps, have the opportunity to make amends for your past mistakes.

【请选择——】

The exact same options.

However, in this first choice, she made it without reservation, bringing with it the selfish desires of a young girl—the first burst of greed from a beautiful heart.

Once you've tasted loss, you'll never expect to lose again.

There's an unavoidable void in my heart, so... shouldn't I fill it?

--have no idea.

Even Alicia, who was watching all of this, was unaware.

Because the last fig leaf has been torn away.

The joy of reuniting with those with whom he had regrets and making up for the unfinished life in the small town can offset his worries about Jiangcheng.

Relying on the willpower to rewrite the inevitable disaster, hoping to erase those empty and cold zeros in the casualty figures.

One can disregard the expectation of wanting to walk alongside the boy.

A carefully prepared birthday party can be transformed into a vibrant exchange for everyone.

however……

what else?

What's left now?

What other emotion can withstand the pain of loss?

What will or awareness could possibly resist the greed that had been suppressed in my heart for ten years, almost pathological, and even fostered something that shouldn't be considered beautiful?

already……

We shouldn't interfere with them anymore.

The young man has now embraced a brand new life as a hero, and this hero, who has not let anyone down, has met true friends.

It's just that someone who made all the wrong decisions and chose all the wrong options is greedily trying to grab onto a young man who should be heading towards freedom and happiness.

The girl's slender, white, and soft fingertips gently pressed on option one.

If you absolutely have to choose, if you absolutely have to interfere in a young person's life, then please... please don't disturb their potentially happy life anymore.

At this moment, you have made your choice. Whether the outcome is good or bad, at least this time, you may not regret it.

[Not out of love or hope, but because that flower of humanity, which should have been eternal and flawless, was tainted by the vile aspects of greed and selfishness.]

Even though the birds that were once imprisoned have found happiness and are about to fly to the vast sky that belongs to them alone, they are unwilling to let go.

Even if you've made a mistake, don't repeat it.

The daughter of God has fallen to earth, for she has experienced human loss.

[But despite all this, despite the repressed and painful emotions that never ceased, despite the loss of someone as important as the sun, the loss of the boy who had never disappeared from memory, whose presence lingered in every important moment.]

You still retain your last line of defense.

[I am unwilling to interfere with the happy life of a young person because of my own desires, thus bringing new chains and cages to a young person who should be free from suffering.]

[Just watch.]

[Just one more glimpse of Jiangcheng.]

Just seeing his happy smile.

46. ​​Alicia, relegated to the role of a bystander

That's enough for you. You won't crave or demand anything more.

You clasp your hands together in prayer, but unintentionally begin to whitewash your actions, becoming the very person you once despised.

Finally, you picked up your camera, not using any high-tech gadgets, but deciding to rely on this classic method of recording to observe everything.

[In the past, you could completely disregard your location, follow your heart, and wherever you went was your destination, the direction you were pursuing.]

"Where to go? That's a good question. The answer, of course, is that even I don't know~"

"Because I always find my destination wherever I end up. In short, as long as I keep moving forward, I'll always find a place to rest, and that's enough for me."

They didn't even care about the scenery along the way—at least verbally, they claimed to enjoy the trip with Jiangcheng, appreciating the views and interacting with passersby.

[Now your goal is clear, your eyes are no longer as pure as before. Armed with a pinkish-blue camera, you secretly infiltrate the Spiral Workshop.]

[Relying on the familiarity I've felt for you since the moment you were born, a familiarity that has never left you, not even for a single day.]

These distances mean nothing to you; even if they were a thousand times, ten thousand times farther, you could still find the boy with pinpoint accuracy.

[He has not accepted his identity, nor his power, nor even understood his own essence. He has never known that the innate ability he was born with still holds the potential to rewrite everything.]

[His seemingly superhuman physical abilities make him perfectly suited to call himself a "little superhero."]

[At least for now, it's useful for spying...]

[Although it's a waste of talent, it's absolutely perfect; there's no more discreet voyeur in the world than you.]

Although it seemed to be merely an attempt to assess the compatibility of the two individuals' feelings and personalities, the moment you set up your camera, your lens couldn't help but point towards the boy with the familiar smile.

[A boy who has never been separated from you, and whom you never imagined would one day be separated from.]

The boy, whose smile and gentleness now belong to someone else, has been replaced.

You stalked him furtively, as if that would make the boy never leave, as if that would cover up the wrongdoings you had committed.

[Until you see the girl lying on the bed, working, after the boy gently pushes open the bedroom door.]

"—Is that the hat you prepared for me?"

What we need to face...
