Honkai Impact 3rd: The Girl Who Chases the Flame

"Wait, Pado!"

"Don't act impulsively!"

Seeing Padofilis charge out like a cheetah, the two spoke at the same time, but didn't have time to reach out.

"Little sister, you..."

Just as Padofilis reached the doorway, a huge beam of light burst forth in front of him.

"Oh, it's Pado... You should have spoken up."

Standing atop a massive cannon turret, Velvi revealed a sinister smile.

"Otherwise, I would like to try my best to avoid killing my comrades."

“Vilvie…senior…”

Blocking Padofilis's way was Melutina, whose arm was covered in black scales.

"Meltina, what should I say? It's been a long time..."

As they were talking, Velvi revealed a smile that could only be described as unrestrained.

"Or is this a first meeting?"

.........

"A complex spiral, sometimes, remains true to its essence despite its many variations. Yes, that's right, just like me."

—Vilvie

The Song of Virvi Chapter 3

"Hey little sister, are you lost?"

At that time, while pursuing her studies at university, Vervi met an interesting young girl.

"Although I don't know who you are, this is a rather impolite remark."

Melutina frowned slightly, but paused for a moment when she saw who it was.

"You... are that Vilvie?"

Am I that famous?

Conductor Vervi scratched her cheek.

"By the way, would you be interested in coming with me...?"

"Let's conduct an experiment!"

It couldn't be Melutina's imagination; she had a feeling that the person's tone had suddenly changed noticeably.

"...I refuse."

"Don't say that, my dear audience—... no, magic partner!"

The great magician Velvet took over the conductor's platform and addressed Melutina, who was then very young, almost childlike.

"This is a magic show by Velvi, the greatest magician of the Twilight Era... Trust me, you'll be satisfied with Kevin's weapon this time!"

"The magician... what are those weapons that Kevin is armed with?"

Melutina, who is still an active university student, thought that this guy might be a little off his head.

"Oh well, just come with me, I'll make sure you're satisfied—"

Melutina still remembers that day when the so-called "escape device" she was in exploded.

From that moment on, she never believed a word the great magician said again.

……

"Senior Vilvie, this is the last time I'm saying this, please stop joking."

Melutina pointed her lance at Vervie in front of her, her tone slightly wavering.

“Oh—Melutina, my dear junior.”

The extremely wicked Wilvi shrugged.

"Don't get so agitated. I think you know Mei's decision, right? They're all going to die anyway... It's not worth arguing with me about this, is it?"

“We all know this is not the same; no one’s death should be meaningless.”

Melutina gripped her lance tightly.

"No need to be so philosophical, we're not Kevin."

The extremely evil Vervi smiled.

"Use all the resources on Earth to build spacecraft for the moon landing; I was just following that order."

"Humans... are not resources."

Blood trickled down Melutina's hands, the result of clenching her fists too tightly.

"No, humans are, of course, the best..."

"It's perfectly natural," said the extremely wicked Vervière.

"Experimental materials for creating suitable anti-Honkai energy armor."

"Who are you? Among the senior students I know, you are not one of them."

"Me? Hmm..."

The extremely evil Vervi thought for a moment,

"Then, I am Velvie, a collection of malice, so you shall call me the extremely evil Velvie."

"A malicious...collection?"

"Melutina, take those two nice old men and go back quickly."

The extremely wicked Velvi pursed her lips at Padophilia and Eden.

"After all, you wouldn't want them to see this hell on earth, would you?"

"you……"

"The device has been activated. The Honkai energy radiation on the surface will be further intensified, and everyone will die. The metal born from the death of the human body due to Honkai energy radiation is the only thing that can approach the end."

The extremely evil Vervi opened her arms.

"It's an absolutely brilliant idea! Isn't it?"

“Vell-Vie!!!”

Melutina practically screamed as she rushed out.

"Wait, Medie..."

Eden, who was deep in thought, suddenly changed her expression. Just as she was about to say something, several strange devices suddenly appeared on the ground, trapping her and Padophilia inside.

"This is forced teleportation? Velvie, wait, you..."

Eden reached out her hand, but only saw, out of Melutina's sight, Velvi gently waving at her.

Goodbye, Lady Eden.

"live……"

……

When the end of the world comes, what humanity needs most is not survival.

Rather, it is liberation.

People who linger in pain, people who cannot see hope.

For them, the survival of humanity was meaningless; they simply lived ordinary lives in this world, without the determination to sacrifice their lives or the courage to defeat their enemies.

But there's nothing wrong with that, because that's what happiness is for ordinary people.

When death is the only salvation, death is the only way to save you.

To survive is the curse.

But even if they understood, humans wouldn't do it.

A creature full of contradictions and complexities, yet never choosing the right path.

That's humankind.

So this time, I'll choose for them.

……

The deafening roar of artillery fire and the ravages of thunder almost made the earth tremble.

The battle between the two heroes was like gods descending to earth.

But this battle is meaningless, because the outcome is obvious.

but……

What, then, is the meaning of this battle?

For Melutina, this battle was meaningless, but for Velvi, it was of great significance.

……

Do you know, Melutina, there are no heroes in this world.

Velvi watched as Melutina stopped attacking because she had fallen to the ground.

No one can carry the whole burden.

Heroes are just ordinary people forced onto this path; they are not great, nor are they invincible.
