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

[Don't worry! I will continue to accompany you until I disappear completely. After all, I already know that lovely humans are very afraid of loneliness. ]

As soon as Fairy Ai Li finished speaking, Mei slowly asked back.

Just like you, isn't it?

[Haha, there's no way to deny it... Then quickly open the envelope in front of you!]

After brewing her emotions, the fairy Ai Li began to urge Mei to open the envelope, and at the same time told her what would happen after the envelope was opened.

[After this, Alicia will go to her finale, the final "banquet". Look... she has already sent you an "invitation".]

Under the guidance of the fairy Airi, Mei finally crossed the gate of light that appeared in the paradise.

As she passed through the door, light enveloped her...

The memories contained in the invitation are what Alicia was thinking before attending the final dinner.

In fact, as a Herrscher, she doesn't know what her power is.

Because no one had ever told her about this, and no one had ever asked her to do anything.

Well... except for being a little more cute, a little more intelligent, a little more perfect...

[There is no difference between me and ordinary people! ]

"Ah... How can a Herrscher be completely the same as an ordinary person?"

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

Obviously, Kiana was somewhat puzzled by Alicia's perception.

"How could that be? After all, a cute and charming girl is a human being no matter how you think about it!"

"Ah this..."

"Oh~ That's so casual."

Following Alicia's statement that being cute is enough, the heroes in the live broadcast room expressed surprise.

However, the big guys didn't think this was strange.

After all, this is exactly what Alicia would say...

[So... this is the "answer", right?]

Have the appearance of a human being, have the character of a human being, breathe like a human being, live like a human being.

Sometimes happy, sometimes sad, sometimes lost, sometimes cheered up. I am reluctant to let go of yesterday, but I am also willing to let go of the future.

[So my name should be "The Herrscher of Man", right?]

[The ruler of "humanity", the ruler of "humanity".]

So, now...

I also want to do something...something that only "humans" would do.

The girl was quietly combing her hair in front of the mirror.

A large pile of makeup supplies was randomly piled up in front of her, and it was obvious that she had just had a fierce battle with all these bottles and jars.

[Hmm...I still feel a little dissatisfied.]

[Is it because the shades of the eyeshadows on both sides are different? Ah, the position of the blush seems a bit asymmetrical... Oh... If I had known earlier, I would have asked Velveto to teach me how to put on makeup. I didn't expect it to be so difficult. ]

[After all, I am so pretty and have never put on makeup. Oh, let me try again...]

However, it was obvious that she, who seldom puts on makeup on her own initiative, had no way of creating a look that satisfied her in such a short time.

[Oops, the lip line seems a little crooked... Hmm... maybe I shouldn't use a highlighter... Ah! The eyeliner is smudged!]

Finally, after a lot of effort, Alicia finally put on a look that satisfied her.

【Done?】

She smiled at herself in the mirror, then shifted her gaze to the twelve invitations on the dressing table.

There were twelve letters, and she prepared one for Sakura.

But in the end, she didn't send them out.

[After all...I told a big lie. Once the crystal flower is broken, it can never be restored.]

[The "sincerity" of a person is like this, isn't it? The beauty of human nature... is such a shining, yet fragile thing. But precisely because it is fragile, we have to protect it with all our heart, right?]

After this, it is the "final banquet" she prepared for herself - it will end with humanity's "victorious crusade" against the Herrscher, known to the world and recorded in history.

And she will give the performance a true ending behind the scenes where no one knows.

[If "Herrser" no longer means "forever goodbye", if every Herrser has the possibility to regain "humanity"... people will no longer have to face such a difficult choice. Humanity... will have the opportunity to find "hope."]

【For us, it is far more precious than "victory". 】

At this moment, Alicia has made up her mind.

If she is the Ruler of Man, then perhaps she can do it.

And precisely because she is the Ruler of Man, she will definitely be able to do it.

[So, if "humanity" is my power, if the beauty of humanity is all that constitutes "Alishia."]

【Then at the end of the story, let me take them back to the "place" where I was born. 】

[Then, I sowed flower seeds on the dry earth... I believe that since human civilization nurtured me, I can also make it bloom again with flawless and eternal flowers.]

As the memory of the invitation letter was revealed, Mei finally realized one thing - it was not a party at all.

From the beginning, it was a "mission", a crusade against the "13th Herrscher"...

【But Alicia arranged it as a banquet because she wanted her ending to be beautiful and shining. 】

[But she didn't send out the invitations in the end. She was afraid that her truth would not be accepted by others, and that her only lie would hurt the people she cherished. She was willing to leave this world with the name of "The Thirteenth Herrscher", just because she didn't want to see everything she loved... vanish.]

Mei slowly expressed Alicia's feelings.

After reading about the girl's life, she was able to empathize with what she had been through.

[Will you... be disappointed in her?]

Fairy Ellie asked slowly.

[How could this be...]

Mei held up the invitation letter in her hand. It was flashing with light, like a piece of poetry or a confession, waiting for someone to open it.

[Even if she is a Herrscher... so what? Am I... not also a Herrscher?]

However, she did not do this.

[Eh!? W-What are you doing!?]

As Fairy Ai Li was surprised, the wind blew up from the seaside, blowing the invitation in Mei's hand gently. She just stood there quietly, letting it be carried away by the wind and disappear into the distance.

[Cute human... why...]

[There is no such thing as the "Thirteenth Herrscher"...right?]

"Ah? What? What did Mei find out again?"

A bullet screen with moonlight effects floated across the live broadcast room...

Obviously, Mei's words deeply shocked Kiana.

She never expected that there would be a reversal at this critical juncture.

"The Thirteenth Herrscher does not exist..."

"So it doesn't exist? But the problem is... Alicia..."

"Thirteen is a false number... I see, that's what you mean?"

As Mei finally realized the truth, comments from the audience began to float across the live broadcast room.

[Since the sender never existed in the first place, what is the point of this invitation?]

[Even if they didn't receive an invitation letter, didn't Ying Jie in real life make the same decision as me?]

Faced with Mei's guess, Fairy Ai breathed a sigh of relief.

Maybe it was because she was relieved, but her body, which had been looking increasingly transparent, seemed to have recovered a little.

[Oh... So that's what you meant. You scared me!]

[Yes, in the end, no one wanted to be her enemy, that's great. But you don't have to go to that extent! It's just a memory...]

In response to the fairy Ai Li's reproach with her eyes closed, Mei just replied slowly.

Yes, this is indeed just a memory that belongs to her.

Therefore, everything in memory is exactly the same as the past history and nothing will change.

Naturally...it will only move towards the destined "ending".

In reality, only four heroes attended the banquet - perhaps there were some "hidden secrets" behind their presence.

Alicia didn't expect that most people would be absent because they "refused to fight", so the only people who witnessed her end were those four.

["Only"? What does that mean...]

Fairy Ellie asked slowly.

[For Alicia, this should be considered a small regret. After all... "Walking to the end surrounded by everyone" - such an ending is more in line with her aesthetic, isn't it?]

Hearing this, the fairy Ellie also reacted.

[My lovely human, are you planning to use "your own memories" to weave something that has never happened in history for her? To weave a "perfect banquet"?]

[Is this kind of thing really possible?]

Fairy Ellie was not sure about this matter.

After all, she is just a vessel that carries memories and longings. Logically speaking, as long as Mei follows the steps, she will be able to welcome herself back.

But she...

[I don't know, but... I have to try. Because I promised Weiwei that I would try to achieve a "best" ending for everyone.]

Later, Mei also judged that the fairy Airi was actually the true self of Alicia. Because she was afraid that she would not be able to accept her ending, she borrowed the appearance of the fairy Airi and followed her anxiously, observing her reaction...

[She doesn't look like a Herrscher at all. She's clearly just an ordinary girl. ]

[Really? Mei has seen through my heart completely...]

Faced with the revelations of the famous detective Mei, Alicia had no choice but to close her eyes again and admitted it somewhat reluctantly.

Chapter 439: Love Lishia, complete! Next is the resurrection match.

[However, I am only a small part of "Alishia", the "corner" that was first awakened by you. ]

In other words, although the fairy manager admitted that she was Alicia, she did not fully admit it.

After all, as she said, she is just a small part of Alicia.

It is indeed as Mei said, it is because of the expectations and confusion in my heart that I am here.

And now, Mei is ready.

So......

[So now, I can finally disappear without worry and become a "part" of Mei. ]

[Let's say goodbye briefly here, and then... go and wake up all the "Alishia", okay, Mei?]

Mei certainly had no reason to refuse such a request.

In the end, both sides parted ways.

However, this goblin administrator has worked so hard for so long that he needs some special rewards to send him away.

[However, if you want to say goodbye, aren't there more appropriate words?]

[For example, the opposite of the wake-up word... the fairy administrator's shutdown word. ]

Hearing this request, Mei fell silent.

Although it has been a long time since the last time I woke up the goblin manager.
