Honkai Impact 3rd: The Girl Who Chases the Flame

"I was thinking of doing that... It's been so long since we've seen each other, so let's take a bath together."

Fu Hua said something heartwarming that didn't match her expression at all, which made Joyce smile involuntarily.

His intuition told him that Dr. Linnaeus should be happy about this.

"It seems your friend has arrived, so I'll be going now."

Fu Hua saw a blue-haired girl in the distance, waved, and then disappeared.

"That is……"

Dr. Einstein, who had just arrived, glanced at Fu Hua as she walked away.

"Dr. Linnaeus's friend said it was the Valkyrie of Destiny."

Joyce said.

"Oh, she has many friends, so it's not surprising that there's a Valkyrie among them."

Einstein nodded, and then said,

"Would you like to lie down and watch the stars with me?"

"……it is good."

…………

"Wow... Although it's been many years since we last met, you're still the same as ever. Hua, would you like me to scrub your back?"

Melutina lay in the hot water, squinting her eyes.

"No need."

Fu Hua was washing her hair next to her. In fact, they looked no different from other same-sex friends of the same age.

“Walter Joyce…”

Fu Hua thought for a moment and said,

"He is indeed a kind person."

"Kind-hearted people are the most heartbroken. How many people like him have been persecuted in this world?"

Melutina submerged her head in the water and exhaled a string of bubbles.

"But you still believe him."

"It's not that I believe him, but this is the only way I can make it up to him, even though in the end, it might just push him into an even deeper abyss."

Melutina popped her head out and placed her hand on the edge of the bathtub.

"But for you, the successor to your Fireseed Project needs someone like him, right?"

Fu Hua entered the bathtub and placed a towel on her head.

"A gentle person like that is the key to finding a partner."

"Otto was a gentle person, but unfortunately his gentleness was not directed towards the world."

Melutina reached out her hand, but Fu Hua slapped it away.

"It's a pity that Otto from the previous civilization was too young, otherwise he might have been more suitable than May as a leader."

"...I guess so."

Fu Hua's answer was somewhat ambiguous.

“But Melutina, you should know, Kevin…”

"After all, it's been fifty thousand years... The only things that haven't changed are you and Su."

Melutina shook her head.

"Regarding Project Ark... I've got some ideas."

"Gresh?"

Fu Hua said in surprise.

“Some time ago at the Imperial Laboratory, I used Eternal Calamity. Thousand Worlds One Vehicle... Gretchen, she might still be alive.”

"You mean it?! That's wonderful, shouldn't we..."

"We won't go to pick her up. It's uncertain whether this civilization can survive, and our current level of civilization is insufficient to build a second ark to fly into space."

Melutina helplessly poured cold water on the situation.

"There's no need to bring them back to die with us."

"...Anyway, it's good that there's hope. But the fact that Gretchen hasn't found a way back means she hasn't found a possibility to defeat the Honkai?"

Fifty thousand years have passed, and Gretchen has grown up. It's impossible for her to still be as clueless as she was fifty thousand years ago.

"Or rather, they're trapped and can't get back."

Melutina shrugged.

"The universe is vast, as are the thousands of kalpas and the Sagara... No, wait."

"Treat the Sagara as a spaceship!"

The two looked at each other and said in unison.

Chapter Six: All the Golden-Haired Guys are Bad Guys

"Hey Joyce, did you enjoy your hot springs with Lisser?"

Melutina waved to Walter, who was in the hall.

"Uh, Dr. Linnaeus, please stop joking so early in the morning."

Joyce said helplessly.

"Yes, that's true. I saw you two looking at the stars side by side."

Linna pulled out a chair, sat down, and looked at the breakfast in front of her.

"?! When did you arrive...?"

Joyce choked.

"It's just a small drone, my... an old acquaintance taught me how to use it."

"...It's not good to spy on others."

But an old acquaintance?

Joyce was slightly taken aback; he had rarely heard this word before.

For Dr. Linnaeus, most people could be considered friends.

But the person who taught her how to make drones...

Obviously not.

"Hmm, an old acquaintance... You wouldn't call someone who lies to you a friend, would you?"

Melutina saw through Joyce's thoughts; though she was smiling, her eyes were somewhat cold.

“Especially this lie…if it’s not so trivial.”

"..."

Joyce was speechless for a moment.

"Oh, by the way, Joyce, be careful lately."

"kindness?"

"The drone accidentally captured a nasty guy..."

Melutina shrugged.

"Yeah, a really annoying guy."

"The Doctor really has a lot of skills in strange places."

Joyce said helplessly.

"Hmm...that's quite a lot, isn't it? I can also pick locks and play the piano, or, would you like to hear some dark fairy tales?"

Melutina stuck out her tongue.

"Anyway, be careful of blond guys, young man. Take my advice: blondies are never good people, especially men."

"I think this is blatant racism..."

"Hmm, come to my room tonight, I have something to tell you."

Melutina finished the last of her milk, then frowned.

"I wish I could have a glass of orange juice."

.........

Then, that very night, Joyce encountered a golden retriever in the bathtub.

"So, you're the Otto they're talking about?"

“Yes, that’s right. Walter, my friend, it’s good that you have your own name. For obvious reasons, I can only chat with you under the pseudonym Alpha the Clown.”

The two men were completely open with each other in the bath, since the Finn had gone to Edison's place and it was assumed that no one else would come in.

"What do you consider a great man, my friend Walter?"

"A great person? Um...like Dr. Tesla, or Dr. Einstein?"

"No, no, no, they are indeed unique in their talents, but great people are not necessarily those with outstanding talents."

Otto Apocalypse pointed to Walter's chest.
