Zhu Yufeng looked at Mostima with empty eyes, and then said, "Next time. Today I promised Astaroth that I would read a story book with her after the meeting. I also have a lot of things to deal with with Lilith in the afternoon."
"It's okay, it's okay. I can go with you, too. I can tell you about the skills along the way, right?"
Zhu Yufeng looked at the girl running around him and nodded helplessly: "Then be quiet when you get there, Astaroth. I really hate people who are too noisy. That's right, you just joined my team, you should get to know other non-resident combatants..."
Zhu Yufeng then looked at Lilith and said, "The game is in my room now. You also have the key to my room, so you can just go get it yourself."
Lilith watched Mostima talking to Zhu Yufeng about tips for passing the level while walking towards the deepest place arm in arm with Zhu Yufeng, despite the pressure of Xila's gaze. Then she looked down at the documents in her hand, as if thinking about something.
These documents, as well as some matters decided at the meeting, can be processed in about half an hour. After that, I will check out what the game is and try to understand it before noon.
The next day, Zhu Yufeng felt a little guilty for leaving many things to Lilith, so he decided to treat Lilith to a good meal. Then he saw Mostima, who looked like he had lost all hope in life and had turned gray. Lilith was there too, so he looked at her and asked, "What happened?"
Lilith shrugged and said, "I just broke the fastest record, and she became like this."
Zhu Yufeng: “…”
That’s it?
He looked at Lilith and said hesitantly, "Did you get a good rest yesterday? It doesn't matter to my body, but for you girls, staying up late is not good, right?"
"I went to bed on time." Lilith spread her hands, "It didn't take me much time."
Zhu Yufeng: “…”
Is this God? He remembered that Lilith basically didn't play games. After all, her parents were very strict, and it was impossible for her to touch something relatively "vulgar" like video games.
"When you came, you seemed like you wanted to say something to me. Is there something you can't handle that you want me to do?" Lilith said.
Zhu Yufeng: "...Nothing, I just want to treat you to a meal."
Lilith's pupils moved, and then she showed a warm smile like spring breeze: "Okay."
If line ending 4 (Part ): Life is like a dream
Part1:
When she opened her eyes again, everything seemed like a dream. The past seemed not far away from her, but it was also out of reach.
……
"Well……"
The girl opened her eyes, the bright sunshine pierced her pupils, the crisp singing of birds came to her ears, and the fragrance of unknown flowers permeated her nose.
"I...where is this..." The girl looked around in confusion at the scenes she had seen countless times, but as civilization was about to die out, there was no fragrance of flowers or singing of birds in the world.
She looked at the world, then looked down at her hands to confirm her condition.
"Aili...is it really you?" Eden's voice came from behind the girl. The girl turned around and saw an old friend whom she had just parted with. Although she had never seen the clothes on him before, they were indeed Eden's style.
"Eden?" She called out the name of the old man, "Why do you... why do I...?"
She couldn't quite understand the current situation. She remembered that she had chosen to return to Honkai in order to end the cycle of fate and to leave hope for the next generation... and Mei had also told her the consequence of doing so: she would most likely no longer be able to maintain her independent personality.
Even so, she still made that choice.
It would be a lie to say that she wasn't afraid of death. She still had feelings for that person that she hadn't told him yet, and she hadn't met him yet... But she also wanted him to embrace a new future...
"Feng... He really fulfilled his promise..." Eden held Alicia in his arms, "Welcome to the new era, welcome to the newly blossoming civilization, Ali..."
Alicia was still a little confused until she was brought back to the World Serpent by Eden and saw her former comrades. Only then did she realize that she had really returned to the world she loved.
"Snapped!"
Fireworks burst out at the headquarters of World Snake. Padu and Weierwei each held a simple salute. Padu smiled and said, "Welcome back, Sister Ellie!"
"Long time no see, Alicia. It's been a long time since we said goodbye, but fortunately, you're back." I, Weilvi, also said with a smile.
"Hmph... don't look at me, I don't have anything to say." Qianjie leaned against the door and looked away.
"But you were clearly ready to confirm the moment you heard the news." Ying said, crossing her arms and looking at Qianjie.
Upon hearing this, Qianjie just snorted coldly and did not refute.
Then Sakura looked at Alicia again, "Welcome back, Alicia."
"I said that the newly appeared Herrscher signal is the same as the Herrscher signal that was observed before and belongs to you. He never breaks his promise..." Mobius looked unsurprised by her arrival. "Forget it... I'm glad you're back... Klein, come with me to the paradise."
Mobius left in a hurry, as if staying here for one more second would be a waste of her time. Alicia looked at her and Klein's backs, and suddenly remembered some things in the past. She smiled and looked at Eden and said, "Mobius...she is still so frank."
"Maybe, or maybe she's afraid that if she stays a little longer, she won't be able to help but show some other expressions... She has always been a stubborn person." Eden's expression suddenly became a little strange, but Alicia didn't notice her expression at the moment.
On the way back, Eden told her what happened next. The remaining heroes fought against the End together and finally succeeded in slowing down the End's pace of resetting civilization. Now, it is the world 50,000 years later.
“It’s true, little sister Alicia…” The grown-up Grace looked at Alicia, thought for a moment, and then imitated her tone in her memory and said, “Um… Hi~ Did you miss me?”
"Of course I miss you~ my lovely little Grayshu." Alicia walked over and gave Grayshu a hug, "But now, I seem to have really become a little sister... Grayshu has grown up too."
Alicia's eyes fell on Aponia again. She smiled and opened her hands and said, "What about you, Aponia?"
Aponia smiled and walked over to give Alicia a hug. "At this moment, too many words are meaningless. In the end, there is only one sentence that can accurately express my feelings. Welcome back, Alicia."
Alicia looked around and asked in confusion, "Where are the others? Kevin, Kosmo, Su, Hua... and Feng, where are they?"
Everyone's expressions became a little unnatural at this moment. They looked at each other, and finally Eden came out to explain: "Kevin... because a thousand years ago, he insisted on carrying out the Stigmata Plan, Su locked him in the Quantum Sea in order to stop him. The one guarding him was Kosmo, and Su, he has always felt guilty for betraying Kevin, so he locked himself in the Sumeru Mustard Seed and continued to carry out the Hengsha Plan. As for Hua, due to many reasons, she has used Yu Duchen too many times, and now she has few past memories left, and her current identity makes it inconvenient for her to come here. You can go find her later, I believe she will be very happy to see you."
Alicia listened to Eden's words, but she still didn't hear the news she cared about the most. She felt a little uneasy, but if everyone was there, that person must be there too, right? After 50,000 years, he still didn't want to see her?
But at least, she wanted to know his current situation...
After hesitating for a moment, Alicia asked, "Where is Feng now? If Kevin wants to carry out the Stigmata Plan, it would be easy for Feng to stop him, right? What happened at that time?"
The atmosphere suddenly froze at this moment.
Eden was silent for a moment, then said with a sigh: "Feng... he has... disappeared along with the past era."
"Eh?!"
"Zhongyan is too powerful. If it weren't for him, we would have paid a heavy price." Weiwei said, "But fortunately we have him, but... in the end, he did something that only he could do."
Why does this sound so familiar?
Alicia had a vague guess, but she refused to believe this possibility. She just looked at Wei Wei and asked, "What did he do? Did he succeed?"
"He succeeded." Weiwei looked at Alysia with some sadness. "What he wanted to do and the results he wanted to see are already in front of us."
Alicia was startled, then looked around: "Where is it?"
After all, he hated himself in the end, right? How could it be possible...
"No need to look for him, Ellie. What he wants to do is to let you have a second life in the new era." Eden walked behind Ellie and gently hugged her. "We were all wrong. We thought he hated you, but he never hated you... In the end, he gambled everything just to let you see this era. He succeeded... You succeeded too, Ellie."
"Decades ago, the first Herrscher, the Herrscher of Reason, appeared. His birth is proof of your success, Alicia. He is the first Herrscher to fight for humanity with his own will." Velvi said.
"Even though he died in the end, the Herrscher core he left behind was accepted by his successor, and the second Herrscher has been fighting for humanity all the time," said Sakura.
Alicia did not show any happy expression. She should have been happy, happy that this era finally had a Herrscher who fought for humanity like her, happy that she had done it, but...
But sadness gradually dissipated in her heart.
"When he left, were there any witnesses of what he was about to do?" asked Alicia.
"The one who walked the last part of the journey with him was Kevin," Eden replied.
"I want to see him." said Alicia.
Eden was stunned for a moment.
"I'm going to see Kevin," Alicia repeated.
Part2
"I am willing to give up everything for you, just to give you a second life, Alicia..."
……
"Feng, the hibernation of all things is ready and is expected to be activated in 12 hours. Thanks to you, the End will not be able to act for 72 hours, which gives us enough time to prepare and analyze." Kevin said as he stood next to the white-haired young man, "We will definitely defeat the Honkai, we will."
The young man stood on the ruins of civilization, gazing at the bright moon hanging alone in the night sky. He said, "Mei... you didn't have any regrets in the end, did you?"
Kevin was silent for a moment, then said: "The only regret is perhaps that the time left for us is too short."
Both of them were silent for a long time.
Kevin tried to speak several times, but when the words came to his lips, he swallowed them back.
"I'm leaving." said the young man.
"Why? If she were still alive, she definitely wouldn't want you to do this." Kevin said, "Besides, we must have a way to treat your body..."
"Kevin," the young man interrupted him softly, "I know that consciousness can be transferred, even though my body is nearing the end of its lifespan, but Mebius does have a way... But I don't have the courage to face the future."
Kevin looked at the young man.
"Lilith and the others are gone, Alicia is gone too... I failed to protect what I wanted to protect. Maybe there will be new possibilities in the future, but I'm really... tired." The starry sky was reflected in the young man's eyes. "I'm sorry, I ended up leaving everything to you. This should be the last time I act willfully. Forgive me, Kevin, I can't face the future with you."
"So you...during that time, you discussed your ideas with Velvet and Mebius, and said goodbye to everyone, right?"
"I am still being willful." The young man smiled bitterly and shook his head. "Kevin, you know what? I originally had nothing in this world. It was Alicia who made me see the world. I always owe her a life, and now, I finally have the chance to repay her."
Kevin was silent.
"She was so flawless, and loved this world and everyone so much. She spent every day seriously and was always looking forward to tomorrow. Her life should not end like this." The young man continued, "And I, after Lilith and the others died, no longer had much attachment to this world. In the final analysis, I have never had much enthusiasm for this world... She deserves to live more than me, really. Besides, even if everything starts over again in the next civilization, Kevin, you will only meet another individual with the same model as Mei, and the Mei in your memory will always become your memory. I'm the same, sorry, Kevin... I'm really tired and want to rest. I'm sorry that I finally gave all the burdens to you to carry, even though you have lost the person you love the most... I'm sorry."
"I'm used to it, Feng." Kevin said, "Besides, you and Alicia have always been the ones who have borne the most. What I have done... is not worth talking about."
“But then you may have to shoulder everything by yourself for tens of thousands of years…” said the young man.
Both of them fell silent again.
After a long while, the young man spoke again: "If, in the future, you see her, if possible, I would like to ask you to let her go to the paradise of the afterlife, so that she can know... I did it."
"But the you in the paradise of the past is not you after all."
"Maybe, you can decide when the time comes." said the young man.
Kevin was silent for a long time, and finally nodded: "...I understand."
There was another silence. The young man looked at Kevin and said casually, "There is still some time before the End wakes up. I will only have the opportunity to do what I want to do when the End wakes up. Before that, let's have one last meal. I saved a little bit, and I think it should be enough for the two of us."
"Hmph... I'm very picky."
"There's really no credibility in what you said."
Two people returned to the base, one seemed relieved, while the other had a blank expression.
11 hours later, in front of the Thousand Worlds One Vehicle.
"You guys..." The young man looked at all the other heroes who came with some surprise.
"We can't stop you, just like we couldn't stop Ellie from leaving, but at least, let us say goodbye to you properly in the end." Eden said.
"Ailisha has always regretted that no one came to take a group photo when the Fourteen Heroes were established. But this time, if you really want to bring her back, then at least leave a group photo. As... the last gift you leave for her." Weiwei said.
The young man hesitated for a moment, then nodded: "Okay."
After taking the photo, the young man and Kevin arrived at the moon together through the Thousand Worlds One Vehicle.
Before leaving, the young man suddenly took out a recorder and handed it to Kevin: "I didn't plan to do this originally, but in the end I left some words for Alicia in it. If you see her later, please help me give this to her."
Kevin accepted the recorder and nodded: "I'll keep it safe."
The young man nodded and turned to his end.
Kevin stared at his disappearing figure. Before returning to Earth, he made a promise to the young man who had gone to an unknown place: "No matter how much it costs, mankind will definitely defeat the Honkai."
If line ending 4 (Part ): Life is like a dream
Part3
Looking back suddenly, she found that all she had left were her memories with him. She was able to embrace the world again, but she could never go back to the past and embrace the boy she once was.
……
Alicia looked at Kevin in front of her, who seemed even colder and lonelier than he was fifty thousand years ago. The thousand years of imprisonment in the quantum sea did not seem to have left any trace on him.
Kevin crossed his arms and looked at Alicia and said, "Welcome back, Alicia."
Alicia just looked at him, and after a while she spoke: "I heard from Eden that you and Feng walked the last section of the road together... Kevin, you are his best friend, tell me, did he say anything at the end?"
Kevin looked at Alicia, and after a moment of silence, he said, "No."
