Ellie stared in surprise, unsure of what to say.
“I’ve always known.”
Airi suddenly realized: "Is that so, Sakura... While everyone was keeping it a secret from you out of goodwill, were you doing the same thing?"
Sakura knew that not everyone acted out of 'good intentions,' but the girl in front of her must genuinely not want to be sad.
"...That's surprising, isn't it?"
"No, Sakura."
Ellie looked sadly into Sakura's eyes: "You never surprise me. I just... don't want to see you face such a painful choice again."
[Alicia]: "Sakura, you..."
[Sakura]: "...Is this surprising?"
[Star]: "The heroes keep their good intentions from each other. The heroes are good, but the erosion wants to destroy the paradise, and the erosion is bad!"
[Thousand Tribulations]: "Hmph!"
[Sakura]: "Perhaps, compared to Rei, I'm the one who seems immature..."
[Kevin]: "Sakura, you've done more than enough."
Bronya Rand: "No matter what planet the disaster is, it is a natural disaster for humanity."
[Honkai Iron Welt]: "Fortunately, the time I exist in has already defeated the Honkai, and I believe that you can too."
【Honkai Iron - Void Treasury】: "Compared to the previous civilization, the Honkai at this time... well, let's not disappoint the pioneers."
I was planning to add more chapters, but I didn't expect that my grandma's house was making steamed buns today. She worked all day, it's Chinese New Year after all.
I can't make bread or buns, but I can cook. I'm exhausted, let me just sit here for a while.
Chapter 272 The Untold Twisted Fate of Sakura and Erosion~
"A fusion warrior like me, once he loses his rationality and his autonomy... the only outcome is that he becomes an existence no different from anyone else."
"And this is tantamount to disgracing everything that Ling had tried so hard to prove."
"I can't let her down again...."
Even though she was so good at hiding her emotions, the 'helplessness' in her tone still spilled out uncontrollably.
"After all, I'm the 'older sister'... I should set a good example, right?"
(Sakura... how hard it must have been for you in the past.)
Ellie looked at her with affection, and realized that the girl in front of her had never been at peace.
"So... Alicia, I only want to ask you to confirm one thing."
"After deciding to go against Ling's wishes... in the final moments of my life, did I... make the right choice again?"
Ellie looked at the other woman, recalling how she had defended her pride as an older sister with her life. And how that unfortunate girl chosen by the Honkai had, in the end, proven her perseverance with a fleeting miracle.
"Then, Sakura..."
"Are you still willing to believe me? Just like... in the past?"
[Kevin]: "Sakura, you did it. You protected the pride of being the older sister."
【Robin】: "Ling is also a strong yet gentle child. I think that at the moment she and the Fire Moth left, she must have had the thought of protecting her older sister."
[Ling Ke]: "I think that's right!"
[Star]: "Is this... someone who feels the same way as a younger sister?"
[March 7th]: "If that's the case, Sunday and Sakura have a lot in common."
[Su Chang]: "Are there any brothers or sisters left in this group?"
Rosalia: "Rosalia—Making a dazzling entrance!"
[Lilia]: "Lilia—Attack!"
Bronya Zaychek: "Those two idiots!"
[Star]: "Just moments ago, Sakura was regretting not witnessing Airi's departure, and the next second she witnessed Airi's death again, huh! Corrosion, you're truly a dream-fulfilling master!!"
[March 7th]: "Erosion didn't tell the truth when he was talking to Mei. What do you mean by 'fearful but helpless counterattack'? Airi was clearly talking to Sakura at the time!"
[Blue Sparrow]: "Hiss... Sakura's luck... it seems like she's always going up against the Herrscher of Corruption. This is also the first time Sakura has fought against the Herrscher of Corruption."
[Theresa]: 'While it does have some resemblance, isn't thinking about it a bit too hellish?'
[Fireworks]: "Oh dear~ what's the big deal? This is just a case of cherry blossoms and erosion being destined for each other~"
Kiana: "A fateful entanglement!?"
"The armed forces against Kevin."
"She must love Licia in order to seize the corresponding dominance."
"...I see, it's a device used for the curtain call?"
[Tail]: "Tsk, this kind of erosion really does take the dross and discard the essence."
[Qingque]: "She learned Aili's appearance, personality and demeanor, but she did not inherit the most essential ideology at all. In essence, she is still the Herrscher of Corruption who will do anything to survive."
[Black Swan]: "However, if Erosion really turns himself into Ellie completely, what's the difference between that and being driven crazy by Ellie's memories?"
[Silver Wolf]: "Su used his own data to complete Sakura's work. Su may have some other plans. I don't believe that Kevin and Su's explanations were useless."
[Fu Xuan]: "Su still has Kevin's 'key', and it may depend on Su to revive Kevin next."
[Li Sushang]: "It seems that the heroes will soon gain the upper hand, unless the erosion has some other tricks up its sleeve."
Chapter 273 A 'Moment' of a Slash!
"Really? I think that's the norm."
"Hmm, that's surprising. Have you ever had a similar experience before...? We'll have to talk about it later, okay?"
Sakura didn't care if these conversations were overheard. Facing the Herrscher of Corruption, this special 'old friend,' Sakura drew her sword once again!
"Although I don't want to use this on her face."
"The reason I failed before was because of your characteristics. But now that I know that..."
Even a fleeting moment is probably insufficient to describe that instant.
The next moment, the Seven Thunders of Purification were already pressing against his neck.
"It doesn't seem difficult to avoid being touched by you."
The next moment, Erosion summoned a massive army of faded Honkai Beasts, which attacked the two of them.
But soon, these so-called monsters were all cut down by Sakura's few slashes, forcing Erosion to personally intervene. When Erosion tried to persuade them to no avail, Erosion went all out. This time, even with Mei and Sakura working together, the situation was not very optimistic.
"Miss Mei, what she said earlier was not untrue, especially in terms of power..."
“Even if all the other heroes were present, she would still have the ability to defeat us all.”
In that case, Mei hopes Sakura will go to Aponia. As an outsider, Mei is the only one who can resist the corrupting power.
However, Sakura also rejected the suggestion. The power of the erosion in the data space was too great, and it was fully capable of defeating the two of them!
Therefore, Sakura chose to unleash her sword strike capable of freezing space, handing the Seven Lightning Bolts of Purification to Mei, and seizing the opportunity to cut through the erosion!
[Star]: "When Mei and the other two girls were together before, who did Mei neglect?"
[Bronya Zaychek]: "That didn't happen. Mei isn't the kind of cold-hearted person."
[Li Sushang]: "Truly divine swordsmanship! No wonder he is a hero like Grandmaster Chiyuan, and no wonder he is worthy of the 'Moment' inscription. Such speed is unheard of!"
[Su Chang]: "Yes, so fast!"
[Gui Naifen]: "This... Changchang, I already understand the gap in skill level between you and your other self, so let's not talk about it anymore."
[Jiaoqiu]: "Haha."
"Hmph, very well, then let's give it a try." Sakura slashed down again!
But she perfectly evaded the erosion: "By the way, Sakura, doesn't your swordsmanship have its own name?"
"Always referring to her by her functions is really too cumbersome..."
Erosion walked confidently around Sakura, and Sakura's two slashes just now had not caused Erosion any harm at all!
When the erosion reached Sakura's side, the third strike came down.
That was indeed Sakura's voice, but the Herrscher of Corruption suddenly realized that it was coming from behind her.
At the same time, cracks began to spread across her body, starting from her mask. Mei, in the distance, also vanished at that moment, shattering into pieces.
Then, the real her, who had been hiding under this 'disguise' since the beginning and was holding the Seven Thunders of Purification, finally broke out of her shell.
"It's too late, Herald of Corruption."
Mei and Sakura, wielding sharp blades, attacked simultaneously, and the Herrscher of Corruption was completely overwhelmed by their combined attack.
Behind Sakura and Mei, the Herrscher of Corruption was frozen along with the surrounding space, unable to move an inch.
[Yanqing]: "This...such swordsmanship..."
[Yun Li]: "That's incredible skill, don't you think?"
[Jingyuan]: "I had heard about her before, but it still seemed unbelievable until she appeared in front of me."
[Feixiao]: "I have never heard of such a sword technique in the world."
[Star]: "Erosion took such a direct hit, so even if it doesn't die, it will be injured. The heroes should have more time now."
[Silver Wolf]: "It looks so!"
[Fu Xuan]: "There shouldn't be only Sakura and Mei here, right? That illusion just now couldn't have been cast by those two."
[Collapse Iron - Void Treasury]: "What a clever substitution!"
[Herrscher of Knowledge]: "Hmph, this guy is so easy to fool. He can be completely fooled by such a simple scam!"
[Alicia]: "Wow, Xiaoshi, you're amazing! Let me give you a compliment!"
[The Herald of Knowledge]: "Just in case, I'm not leaving here. I want to see if the Herald of Corruption dares to come again!"
[Black Swan]: "The Land of the Past is not just a space of data, but also a world of memories. As the Herrscher of Knowledge, her powers should have a home-field advantage there." (My own interpretation of the setting)
[Theresa]: "The Herrscher of Knowledge and the Herrscher of Corruption are fighting fiercely in Paradise. I feel that Paradise should be destroyed by them first."
I browsed Feilu today, and now there are so many people writing about Ongfaros's movie-watching style!?
They're really not afraid of being betrayed. They've only just started and don't know anything yet. It's really hard to keep up with them.
Chapter 274 Sakura: "If possible, please let me die in more pain."
That place, which is...
"...Visitor, this is yours."
"My...thoughts...?"
At this moment, Mei finally understood what Vervie had meant back then:
"Because the power of the Herald of Corruption cannot affect me. If we can extend this characteristic to something, we can have a position that is not disturbed by the enemy."
"And with this... we can launch a counterattack!"
"But how do we do it?"
Sue explained, "Vilvie has left a spiral imprint on your mind, and I will use it as a beacon..."
"...Here we will recreate the surgery called..."
"That is, the creation of memory..."
"Just as when the Paradise of the Past was first established, I will let your thoughts unfold in the Paradise in the form of memory, like those of Yingjie... no, in the form of memory."
"Only in this way can we... Alicia."
[Star]: "It's been so long, and Teacher DaV is still C!!"
