Besides, Eden didn't think there was anything wrong with doing so.

As for the reason, it’s actually not that great.

[Please don't worry about me, Miss Mei. ]

[I am never afraid of any form of "death". To me, life is just a long drama.]

Eden expressed his outlook on life and his views on the ultimate question of death without hesitation.

[As long as the curtain call can be made at the most appropriate time and in the most beautiful way, then this performance will be perfect. ]

[This is also her wish. ]

All preparations have been completed and the words you want to convey have been delivered.

Now, it's time to take a bow.

[Well, let's get started. The time to let them bloom has finally arrived. ]

Eden spread out her palms, and bright light flowed out from them, gradually gathering into a crystal flower of two different colors, one gold and one purple.

【Four "crystal flowers", four "keys"......】

Mei also stretched out her hand. The flower in her palm was a mixture of black and blue, exactly the same as the one in Eden's hand.

【Sharing the same "past"......】

Four crystal flowers floated slowly in front of the two people.

This is the crystal flower that Eden and Mei obtained for various reasons, and it is also the key to unlock the seal.

To Mei, these four flowers are strange.

But for Eden, they can be said to be a recognition and a symbol.

[Mei, do you still remember what I said to you?]

[This is a "secret" kept by a few heroes. I'm sorry, I can't reveal everything without their permission.]

Looking at the four crystal flowers, Eden's eyes became deep and sadness appeared on his expression.

[Compared to an amulet, it is more like a keepsake, a "key"...sealing an unknown past in this brilliant color. ]

Hearing this, Mei's detective talent suddenly came into play again.

[Is it that... "Last Banquet"? Of course I remember it... This is natural, "Alishia" in the paradise did not really experience what happened that night. Therefore, the only one who can bury it here... is "someone else." 】

She deduced what Eden wanted to say in an orderly manner.

Or rather, she already had the answer in her mind when she heard the term "last banquet" earlier.

[The four people who witnessed the "banquet"... were also the four people who saw her leave this world that night. ]

[That banquet was a farewell prepared by Ai Li for herself. She arranged everything for the banquet, including, of course, her final day as a Herrscher.]

[We will never forget what happened on that day, so we kept the memory of that time and divided the key to open this memory into four parts.]

And now, now, the four crystal flowers have gathered together, which means that the keepers of the secrets have all acknowledged Mei's will.

Although, there is only one Yingjie memory left who is responsible for keeping the key.

But the crystal flowers they entrusted to her still represent that Mei is now qualified to know the truth about the dinner.

Well, it's time to bring everything back to light.

[Ms. Mei, I leave everything else up to you...]

Eden held her hand, and the light of the crystal flowers intertwined, weaving the most precious memories of the singer of the future.

[Please bring Ai Li... and our "hope" back to this world. ]

Waking up from the hazy past, what Mei saw was the image of Eden leaning on the sofa, holding a golden cup.

Fragments of light dissipated from her body and merged into the light of memories in the memory space.

Everything seemed to be exactly the same as when we first met in Paradise, but... this was the end.

[Eden...can I...ask you one last question?]

[Of course, Mei-san. The rest of my life... they all belong to you.]

Before completing Alicia with his own data, Eden is ready to answer any questions Mei has.

She didn't want to leave her friends with regrets when she left.

[There is one thing I cannot understand no matter what... When the Fire Moths were torn apart and her own survival was in doubt, in order to unite the remaining people, Alicia volunteered to become the "Thirteenth Herrscher" and stood on the opposite side of humanity...]

[In the end, she sacrificed herself to put the world back on track... This is the history I can deduce from the Paradise Archives and the few words of the heroes... But...]

When she first learned about this history, Mei chose not to believe it.

In fact, after arriving in the promised land, she was skeptical of most things except China.

Of course, the same attitude was maintained towards Alicia's "Final".

[But... is this really the case?]

[Regardless of how she "actively" becomes a Herrscher, and how she uses a "sacrifice" to make everyone wake up, if this is the true "ending" of Alicia... then why did the beginning and end of the "Thirteenth Herrscher"... become a piece of history that was erased?]

"Yes, there are indeed many suspicious points. But... Mei was able to find so many?"

A barrage of comments with moonlight effects floated across the live broadcast room.

Kiana didn't expect that Mei had become so perceptive during these days in Paradise.

What on earth did she go through to become so adventurous?

"Hmm~ That's amazing, isn't it? It's indeed amazing. A girl as smart as Mei can definitely become a great Herrscher if she wants to, right?"

"indeed."

"Haha~ That's right."

As Alicia teased that Mei was more like the Herrscher of Reason, the audience expressed their approval in the live broadcast room.

And just when Bronya inadvertently suffered multiple critical hits...

[Ms. Mei...you are really smart. ]

At the end of the world, Eden didn't seem ready to keep the secret hidden any longer.

After all, Mei now has obtained the consent of the custodians.

This also means that she is now qualified to know the truth.

However, it is not difficult to judge from her speech that even if she is not qualified, she will surely find out the truth hidden behind it in her own way, right?

[You have discovered that there are many "irrationalities" in this statement... because it is just a "statement" to explain to others and future generations why she left. ]

[There is only one answer that can turn all "irrational" into "rational"... that is, the "truth" you have been searching for. ]

Eden smiled.

【......is that so?】

After listening to Eden's explanation, Mei couldn't help but be speechless.

It turns out that my guess was correct. That statement was just a statement after all, not the real truth.

【so......】

All the things in the past came to mind, and those casual conversations had already revealed the answer.

[That's right. Maybe... I really told a big lie, the only "lie" in my life.]

In someone's memory, Alicia's voice slowly sounded.

Although she has gone away, she seems to have always been there.

[After all... I am afraid too. Hmm... I wonder how I will perform? How will everyone see me?... Judging from their reactions, the result should be good, right?]

[Otherwise, there would be no "Alisa" in the paradise of the afterlife...Haha, thank you, Mei.]

[I am so lucky to meet you in this way. You brought me... the "gift" that I have always longed for but never desired.]

Those few words were strung together at this moment, leading everything to the only answer.

"What...the answer?"

"Yeah, what is the answer? Could it be... an answer that makes people feel disappointed?"

"I think that the answer that could make everyone keep it secret must be very important, right?"

"Yeah~ Of course, maybe it will change our opinion of someone~"

As the answer to the entire plot of Paradise was about to be revealed, comments from the heroes and the parties involved immediately floated across the live broadcast room.

Obviously, everyone is very curious at this moment.

What is the truth about Alicia's Herrscher...

[So... Alicia...she was never the "Thirteenth Herrscher", right?]

【Um. 】

Eden slowly acknowledged Mei's guess.

【“Thirteen” is a false number. She told a “lie” to the world, just to tell the “truth” to the people she loved before leaving.

[Ms. Mei, I'm very happy... In the end, you found the "answer" yourself. ]

[This is what you have been seeking all along, the final secret buried in the paradise of the past. The second of the Fire Chasing Heroes, Alicia, the inscription of the "true self", this girl who deeply loves all "people"... She was born a "hersher". ]

"???"

"???"

"???"

"Eh? What? Did I... hear something wrong???"

"..."

As the final truth was revealed, a large number of question marks from the audience and Kevin's ellipsis floated across the live broadcast room.

The person who was most shocked was not the other audience members, but Alicia herself.

I can only say that the truth will come out eventually, and now everyone is around me...

This seems to be no different from telling each of them face to face...

Chapter 435: Eden, dead! The Paradise Match is over, but the next step is the resurrection match.

The headquarters of the Fire Moth.

All the heroes who were in the same room with Alicia turned their eyes to their trusted companion, Alicia.

She... is a Herrscher??? No, strictly speaking, she is born a Herrscher!

This information was so shocking that the other heroes were speechless for a long time.

But no one made an attacking gesture, and no one questioned Alicia's reason.

As companions, as close friends who trust each other, they are willing to give Alicia a chance to explain herself.

At the same time, I will not take the initiative to ask about these things.

Because so far, Alicia has not shown the aggressiveness of a Herrscher.

Perhaps the best attitude is to treat Sakura's sister Ling in the same way.

"Uh...it seems like there are some things that I have to say...Everyone~I'm sorry to tell you so late, but I think...it seems like I don't need to keep this a secret any longer."

But what made it difficult for them was that Alicia, who was the party involved in the whole incident and whose identity as a Herrscher was confirmed, actually spoke at this moment.

This is really a case of bringing up something that is not related to the topic. It's almost like asking everyone directly whether they are surprised or not.

"..."

Many heroes looked at each other, feeling only surprise but no joy.

After all, if Alicia is a Herrscher, then...what should we do next?

After all, even though the post-era is so harmonious, it doesn’t mean this generation can be like that.
