Live broadcast of Honkai Impact 3rd, I chose to expose Kiana in Sky City!

In this way, the two walked forward for a while and finally returned to the fountain square where they had just entered the eternal paradise.

After arriving here, Alicia slowly turned around and asked:

[By the way, Mei, there is one more thing I have always wanted to ask you. ]

[What do you think of the so-called virtual existence of our memories...the reproduction of our life data?]

Mei felt a little surprised at this statement.

However, although this made her very confused, for Alicia, whether it was the martyrs who died early or the pioneers who lived to the future... [they] were ultimately "real existences" that had nothing to do with [us].

The "we" who stay here are just a past, a shadow left in the past.

[We can only stay here, unable to touch your reality, nor accompany you into the future. ]

[When you leave here and return to your normal, real life... you will also know that everything that happened here is just a story. A "virtual" story.]

[It may not be long before you forget these things, forget these words, forget...our existence. ]

Alicia expressed her concerns while also imagining Mei's future.

[You will meet someone better than me, or you may have already met someone. You still have your own life, so embrace your tomorrow.]

[In that case, do our emotions, our thoughts, our will, our actions... really have any meaning?]

What does "we" mean to you, to anyone?

What does [we] mean?

This question took Mei a long time to respond.

Indeed, everything is just as Alicia said, the memories of Yingjie left here are just shadows of the past.

Although these shadows really come from real living people, most of those heroes have been lost in the long river of history.

Kevin, the leader of the Thirteen Heroes, may still be there... but is he still the same person he was before?

Similarly, Hua has acquired a new identity in the current civilization, that is Fu Hua.

As for the others, their life or death is basically uncertain.

To the memory, the past is just a thing of the past, a thing of the past history.

So what kind of evaluation should we give to these remnants of history?

Unfortunately, Mei is unable to give a reasonable answer right now.

However, this did not go beyond Alicia's expectations.

[Sorry, I've embarrassed Mei again. ]

[Just think of it as... another willful request of mine. ]

[It doesn't matter, you still have a lot of time to think about this question, just tell me honestly before you leave here. ]

After receiving Aliza's comfort, Mei nodded.

Admittedly, it might take her a long time to get the answer to this question.

But before that, she could be sure that the memories of the heroes were exactly as she knew them.

At the same time, it will affect your actions just like a living person.

After receiving this answer, Alicia seemed very happy.

[In the end... I still can't figure out what the fog is. Now... I have to wait until dawn. ]

[Let’s meet here tomorrow morning, okay?]

[I will find a way to open the way. Let's go to the foggy island, to the place where the "Last Banquet" took place, and witness together the birth and end of the "Thirteenth Herrscher".]

As Alicia slowly narrated the story, the main story between her and Mei came to an end for the time being.

Next, the main narrative perspective of the plot came to Hua.

after a while.

Mei looked at the sky that had turned dark, and thought about Aliza's promise to her.

I have to say, this is really her style.

[After dawn, Alicia will help me dispel the fog on the island. ]

[As long as I get there, I will know everything that happened at that "banquet", the truth about the Thirteenth Herrscher, and... the "answer" I'm looking for.]

[After that...I will leave here.]

"After that, Mei is finally leaving here? I'm happy, but... I feel like she's saying these things at this time, and maybe something unexpected will happen later?"

A bullet screen with moonlight effects floated across the screen...

It's obvious that Kiana can't wait to reunite with Mei.

But she could feel that after saying these words...Mei might encounter some accident.

After all, apart from anything else, just talking about this matter at this time gives people the feeling that it would be a shame to lose the atmosphere if nothing unexpected happened.

This is what is commonly known as setting a flag...

However, just when Kiana was surprised, Mei asked a question that surprised her.

[Will I...leave here...?]

Mei had never thought about this question.

She entered as a successor, and naturally she would leave as a successor, that was the way it should be - she had not even anticipated that she would have the possibility of returning here like Raven.

But since when, reality seems to have become a dream of yesterday. And this journey to pursue the past and the "memories" she saw on the journey have become... so real.

When the separation comes, is the relationship between her and them really just that of "inheritor" and "inheritor"?

What will they think in their hearts when bidding farewell to successors one after another?

And that girl who greeted him with a smile at the very beginning - had she foreseen this day even then?

All these things made Meiyi feel a little overwhelmed.

She doesn't know the answer, but when she doesn't know the answer, her choice is always to "seek".

【The last moments, rather than spending them in reality...】

[How about...let me feel your "memories" a little more. ]

Afterwards, Mei, who was full of worries, began to talk to the townspeople who were recorded in Alicia's heart in the eternal paradise.

Although they are just memories, what these townspeople are talking about are all trivial matters in their daily lives.

It gives people a very real feeling.

However, with the discovery of these memories of Alicia.

Mei suddenly discovered that someone who surprised her appeared here.

【Good evening, Mei. 】

Hua stood there slowly, making people curious about what she was doing here so late at night.

Mei looked up and found a familiar figure standing beside her.

【Hua? Good evening.】

["Night"...I didn't expect to see the normal cycle of day and night in Paradise. 】

In fact, Hua was also very surprised by this phenomenon.

Because she hadn't seen such an ordinary night for a long time.

It feels like returning to the long-lost daily life. The previous war, the end of the world, the memories... are more like a long dream.

Mei looked at Hua who was deep in thought, and couldn't help but wonder in her heart - maybe this was also one of Alicia's purposes?

[Sorry, I said something stupid, I hope you don’t mind. ]

[No, I don’t understand. I guess that’s just human nature. Only after experiencing turmoil and conflict can one truly appreciate the value of everyday life.]

Mei spoke slowly, and did not forget to express her emotion at the end.

【Eternal Paradise... What a beautiful place. 】

[Yeah, apart from those mysterious "enemies", there doesn't seem to be any other danger... I wonder why Aponia hid this place?]

Mei saw that Hua looked confused, so she asked about the fact that the Yingjie system was not approved.

Later, she learned from Hua that the Yingjie system was established because of Alicia's persistence.

After chatting about this, the two said goodbye.

The next day, Mei arrived at the agreed location, but found that Alicia was not there.

The one who came here... was the fairy manager who looked like a replica of Alicia.

[Ah, lovely human! I can meet you so early in the morning. Is this also the fate of fairies?]

[Although I'm almost used to it, I still want to sigh that it is worthy of being made based on Alicia. 】

After hearing these words, the fairy Ellie discovered a problem.

[Oh, so you weren’t with the mature me today?]

Fairy Ai Li had a surprised expression on her face, as if she was particularly surprised by this incident...

But the next second, she changed the subject.

[Could it be... that he came to see me alone? Fairy Ellie, I'm so happy!]

[No... I made an appointment with Alicia to meet here, but she seems to be late. ]

Mei was embarrassed and couldn't help but sigh that the doll was indeed made based on Alicia.

In every aspect, he looks just like her.

[That's really rude! If it were me, I would definitely come early to wait for you and cherish the last moments with this lovely human~]

【Last moments?】

Mei was shocked when she heard what the fairy Airie said.

[Yes. After knowing the truth, you will leave here, right? I said so when we were repairing the typewriter together yesterday.]

【She really misses you. 】

This understated sentence makes people feel inexplicably distressed...

Chapter 383: A paradise without Lishia...

And just when Mei was silent, the fairy Ai Li continued to talk about Alisia's feelings at that time.

[She said that in order to make you remember us forever, she would prepare many surprises for you on the last island, so many that you would return to paradise in your dreams.]

【If this happens, you might not want to leave. 】

[I laughed at her for being so naive. You have suffered so much here, how could you be reluctant to leave?]

"Hmm~ She's such a clingy fairy lady, but...if possible, I really hope Mei can stay..."

A pink bullet screen floated across the screen...

Obviously, Alicia also hopes that Mei can stay.

But unfortunately, she also knew that this was impossible.

Because if she stayed, Mei would no longer be Mei.

After hearing those words, Mei fell into a long silence...

Seeing that she was actually hesitant, Fairy Ellie took the opportunity to ask:

[......Uh, can you?]

【I......】

Mei cannot give a definite answer to this question for the time being.
