Teresa won't starve

Therefore, when she saw the crack shrink to only about one meter, she rushed over without much hesitation, curled her body into a ball and got into the crack.

"Wait, I too..."

Teresa saw that they all ran away one by one, and wanted to follow Xia's back. Unfortunately, her reaction was still a bit slow, and when she rushed to the crack, the crack just disappeared in front of her.

So he fell face down on the ground.

"..."

After lying down like this for a while, Teresa sat up again (M shape), scratching her face in embarrassment.

Just when she was thinking about going back to sleep and forgetting about it, Teresa suddenly looked back.

Only then did I realize that there was a person standing behind me, a girl in a cherry blossom-colored bathrobe, with a hint of surprise on her face: "Why are you?"

"..."

The girl opened and closed her lips, as if she was talking about something.But unfortunately, no sound was made, or that sound could only be heard by Teresa.

So after hearing the girl's 'words', Teresa's face showed surprise and confidence:

"Don't worry. I will, let everything go as agreed."

965 "A fairy is in the eye of the beholder"

"--Um!?"

The dizzy Xia gradually came back to her senses in the haze, stroked her aching forehead and raised her eyes to look around; she found that this was an indoor shrine illuminated by strange lights, and that it seemed to be used for praying in the distance. Something is sucking her past.

However, just as she raised her foot and walked towards the worship hall.

But suddenly he turned his head and looked behind him, at the Sixth Night who was standing behind him at some point but had already changed his clothes, or Yun Chen?

Not right, in the blink of an eye Xia found that she had turned into a silver-haired nun in a black nun's attire.

Xia suspected that she might be hallucinating, so she shook her head and blinked, and looked at the other person and changed back to Sixth Night, but the next second, her vision was blurred and turned into 'cloud dust', 'nun', and a continuous cycle.

"What the hell are you—!?"

"I was careless."

Sixth Night, Yunchen, no, not at all, Kallen looked down at her right hand, at the outfit that would change every time she blinked, she knew that she was still too whimsical.

"main idea?"

"At first, I thought that after 500 years of precipitation, my body was strong enough to bear the power of the curse seal. I didn't expect that in the end, I was still so vulnerable, so easily smashed by the power of the curse seal."

——Maybe this is retribution.

Kallen took a deep breath, and forcibly suppressed with the power of the human world, the influence of the Hungry Ghost Dao curse seal on her body, temporarily fixed her appearance as a 'cloud dust'.

Xia was confused:

"what do you want to say in the end?"

It's just that even Karen doesn't know where to start explaining this; and if you tell her from the beginning to the end...

"Let me tell you a story about this, please?"

"I......"

Xia originally wanted to refuse directly, just like she had done before.It's just that when she saw the begging in Kallen's eyes, she couldn't say no to it anyway: "Say it."

"That was a long time ago, when Yae Town was still Yae Village, and I hadn't settled here yet."

Karen smiled at her with gratitude in her eyes, and in her tone was a kind of nostalgia for the past: "At that time, I was seriously injured and traveled across the ocean. I fled to a place called Yae Village in the Far East, and met a girl who grew up very similar to Xia You."

"The surname Yae in Yae town is very similar."

Although it was not stated, the meaning in Xia's words did mention 'Rin'.

"No, you are special."

Maybe it's because the story hasn't come here yet, so even though Xia had doubts on her face, Kallen didn't explain to her why: "Her name is 'Yae Sakura', and she is the only one in Yae Shrine in Yae Village. Miko, too..."

"The legendary Goddess Priestess who seals the evil fox that caused trouble in the world."

Xia immediately interrupted her and continued, because: "These stories have long been spread in Yae Village."

"Yeah. Everyone knows the story of the Goddess Priestess, but they have never seen the Goddess Priestess."

As if feeling regretful, Kallen sighed when she said this, and suddenly smiled and said to Xia, which might sound like a joke to Xia: "By the way, do you want to see what she looks like?" ?”

"Hmm...About this legendary character. If there is a chance, I would naturally want to take a look at her to see if she is really like the legendary fairy."

"A fairy? No, she's...well, a fairy."

To be honest, Kallen still feels a little awkward when she has to compare a witch to a fairy.But think about it carefully, in her eyes, why is the other party not a fairy?

"Then, come and see our Miss Fairy."

Kallen waved her hand in Xayah's direction, and Xayah heard a series of doors opening behind her.This made her turn around almost instinctively, looking in the direction of the voice.

Then Kasumi saw the huge cherry blossom tree growing indoors, and the girl who was bound by the branches of the cherry blossom tree and let her sleep on the cherry blossom tree while lying on her side.

Especially when Xia saw the girl's face, she touched her face immediately after being shocked by that look:

"she--!?"

966 "Accuse"

"Does it look like you?"

Karen walked to Xia's side and looked into the distance with her: "That's why I said, you are special."

"You know exactly what I mean."

"Ah, indeed."

Looking at the almost unbearable question in Xia's eyes, Kallen suddenly felt very funny and wanted...but immediately put away her emotions, and the brilliance in her eyes faded again: "From being with Lei Dian In Mei's conversation, you should know that the birth of the Miserable Puppet originated from me. Then, do you know why, do I want to study this kind of thing?"

"You always have your reasons."

Having said that, the inside and outside of the words are all: How would I know if you don’t tell me?

"Because I'm not researching how to turn human beings into puppets, but how to transfer a person's soul into another person's body. As long as I succeed in doing this, I can bring the dead back to life."

"The resurrection of the dead."

Xia suddenly remembered something, and looked at the 'sleeping' priestess on the god tree in the distance in surprise: "Could it be that you want...but she..."

"No, her life was no longer in this world 500 years ago."

Kallen was talking, but her eyes never left the witch's body, as if she could see her voice and smile again: "What you see is just a shell that looks alive, but in fact her body is still alive. Almost all the cells are dead."

"almost?"

"As you can imagine, I tried to revive her. And considering the possible rejection of the body, I re-cloned a child with her surviving cells and transferred her soul to the child's body." in the body."

"and then!?"

Seeing Xia who suddenly became excited, Kallen suddenly laughed happily as if she had encountered something very interesting: "It seems that you are not as calm as you appear."

"answer me!!!"

Xayah grabbed Kallen's shoulders with both hands, and forcibly turned her to face her.

"Isn't the answer obvious?"

Kallen sighed, and looked at the sleeping Miko again, as if she only had Sakura in her eyes and no Kasumi: "I failed. I didn't want to suffer another failure, so I chose to give this power to others to study, and I only need to reap the final results." ("Only you without her in my heart")

Then, develop as Xayah knows.

Raiden Ryoma went to jail, Raiden Mei 'stolen' the seal of Shura Dao, and Vulcan went berserk and turned into an evil ghost.

"..."

Xia fell silent.

Slowly let go of the hands holding Karen's shoulders, and after taking a few steps back, he asked another question: "Then why did you send me to that place? Even if it fails, at least I...should still have some value for research and use?"

"About this? How should I say it?"

As if substituting the third-person perspective, Kallen said in a way of treating others: "When I saw the eyes of 'that child', I don't know why, but I seemed to see Sakura again. But just because I knew That child is not Sakura, so I can't continue to face that child."

"So you chose to send her away!? Doesn't matter where she lives!? Or not!?"

Xia shouted and criticized, as if she was accusing an irresponsible mother, asking why she was so irresponsible.

Karen quietly waited for her to finish shouting, until she had to gasp for breath because of the non-stop shouting, and then said in a tone as calm as possible: "I'm sorry."

"enough!"

Like an awkward child, Xia completely refused to accept her insincere apology: "Anyway, after so many years, it doesn't matter to me anymore."

——If it really didn’t matter, I wouldn’t say these things.

967 "Legend"

The atmosphere was deadlocked for a moment.

......

Xia touched her side face with her right hand, and lowered her head, unwilling to look at her; but from time to time, she couldn't help but raise her eyes to look at Kallen who was always staring ahead, as if she was completely obsessed.

Let her inexplicable, some 'envy'.

"you--"

Seeing that Karen turned her head, Xia was reluctant to talk to her, but she couldn't stand the atmosphere, so she found a reason and said, "You, why, became like this?"

"?"

Kallen didn't get it at first, then 'Ah! ’, and nodded understandingly: "This is what I was going to say. After talking about Sakura, the next thing should be my story."

"main?"

This means that it sounds like Karen has put herself in such a position.

"Well, in fact, about this, we still have to start from 500 years ago."

Karen didn't think there was anything wrong with splitting a story into two parts, she just told it there on her own: "At that time, I had to bear the crime of betraying the destiny because of one incident, and I went beautifully all the way. across the sea to this remote island country—the Far East.”

"You betrayed, Mandate of Heaven!? Then why did he..."

"At that time, he wasn't the Bishop of Destiny—" I thought of the childhood sweetheart who could even turn into a devil for her own sake... Karen shook her head and didn't think about him for the time being: "In order to avoid the Church of Destiny, In the pursuit of the Valkyrie team, I hardly slept, did not drink or eat, and I was seriously injured, and soon I passed out on the creek by the side of the road."

"..."

"Then, when I woke up, I was already lying in someone's house." Kallen's face showed a kind of mischievous feeling that she didn't know how to describe: "That's right, it's the house of the Miko lady named Yae Sakura, and she gave me the medicine herself..."

"Cough cough!"

Although she didn't say it, Xia's face had already clearly expressed a meaning: You have to be more serious!

"And I just stayed at Ms. Ying's house like this, taking care of my injuries with peace of mind. I originally thought that I would leave after the injuries healed, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble to Ms. Ying."

Speaking of this, Kallen couldn't help sighing, seemingly helpless and remorseful: "It's a pity that I was too naive after all. I took that thing away with self-righteousness, thinking that as the strongest and only S-rank Valkyrie at the time, no one could keep its secret better than me and prevent it from hurting others-but in the end, Sakura was involved."

"That thing?"

"I don't know what it is specifically. I only know that it is a black box, which is a product from a pre-civilization. The Church of Destiny at that time called it a black box, and planned to use it to study the collapse, so that we can It is easier to fight against Honkai."

"Isn't that a good thing?"

"Where is there such a good thing that doesn't cost you?" Karen thought of the consequences of using the black box and the disaster it brought to Europe at that time...for a moment, she didn't know whether her approach was correct: "You should know the plague event that killed countless people in European history, right?"

"You mean the Black Death? I know some..."

Xia suddenly realized, and looked at Kallen with disbelief: "Could it be because of the collapse?"

"Yes."

Karen remembered that the bishops at that time were all trying to find an antidote to the Black Death through the black box, but they didn't know: "The Black Death is actually the polluted gas leaking from the black box, or a virus-type collapse."

"how come?"

"This world is like this. If there is anything that can't be explained, just return it to Honkai." Seeing the somewhat depressed look on Xia's face, Kallen suddenly joked.

Just the effect—

"..."
