Honkai, they all became my stigmata

Page 65

Alicia nodded, she had expected Chen Yu's rejection.

Hmm... After all... how should I put it, the reputation of the Flaming Moth outside is really not very good.

This point, the girl is also well aware.

Moreover, although she has never intended to participate in the so-called high-level infighting, as a social expert, it is very easy for her to know this information.

The person in front of her... Although she still doesn't know where he came from, he must have some strange powers like herself. Perhaps, he also knows many secret things. There may not be a safe place in mind.

But it doesn't matter, Alicia is not the kind of girl who will give up easily, facing this expected rejection, she has already prepared forty kinds of arguments to persuade Chen Yu to go back with her.

Next, let’s try one by one——

However, none of these methods may be used.

"But I believe in you - Alicia, if you invite me, I will go."

Dust Feather said immediately.

"...Ah~ this is really~"

The girl's expression changed for a moment, but she immediately returned to that calm expression.

"Can you tell me why you trust me so much?"

"Because... no one can reject a girl as beautiful as flying flowers?"

Chen Yu pondered.

"Hmph~ Thank you for your compliment, I am very happy."

The girl happily jumped down the steps.

"Alicia's intimate reminder! You can rely on Alicia to your heart's content, and she will respond to you with all her heart?~"

"But... Alicia, what are you going to do?"

Chen Yu asked honestly.

It is only a few days away from the birth of the Herrscher of Death. Even if we go to the Moth of the Flame, what kind of solution can we find?

"Uh~ Actually, I don't quite understand it, but I have a friend who has a very deep research on Honkai. I think she will have some ideas."

Alicia replied perfunctorily.

"The friend you mentioned...is her name Mebius?"

"Oh, this is really surprising. I didn't expect you to even know her name. This makes me a little jealous. Are you the type of person who often pays attention to academic journals?"

"It's really her..."

Chen Yu pondered.

At this moment, Mebius should still be a green big sister.

Wait, the point is not this, it should be... even the wise and demonic Mebius, can he really help him in this regard?

However, let's try, even if he fails this time, he can still continue to try, after all, as long as Alicia contacts him, he can retrieve his memory.

"...Okay, let's set the time tomorrow morning. I'll go back and talk to Xi'er."

Convincing Xi'er to leave with her is not a big problem, just like the countless reincarnations before, the "déjà vu" accumulated because of reincarnation has already made Xi'er trust him extremely.

It's just that this time the destination has changed from [Twilight Street] to [Flame Chasing Moth Base].

After making plans for tomorrow, Chen Yu planned to go back home, to the orphanage.

"Hey~ wait."

The girl called to stop Chen Yu.

"Ok?"

"Let me go too, I think, you don't mind if I get in touch with that girl named [Xie Er]?"

Under the darkness of night, Alicia asked Chen Yu to go back with him.

"If this is..."

Chen Yu said hesitantly.

"Just take me there, okay, okay?"

The pink girl used a slightly coquettish tone for the first time, and I have to say, the effect is outstanding.

"..."

When Chen Yu came back to his senses, he had already returned to the gate of the orphanage, and beside him stood a beautiful and moving girl.

Freely, voluntarily, without coercion.

Well, how do you say that?No one can refuse Alicia, no one!

Standing at the entrance of the orphanage, Chen Yu was thinking about how to explain to Xi'er that he picked up a girl from outside after a night.

Wait a minute, does this picture look a little familiar...

"Chen Yu, you're back."

Just like last time, Xi'er opened the orphanage's door just at this time.

It should be said that she has actually been listening to the movement at the door deliberately.

Seeing Alicia following behind Chen Yu, Xier asked curiously.

"That, that, this is..."

"Well, Seele, she's—"

Before Chen Yu could finish her sentence, Alicia rushed forward, got close to Xi'er, and took her hand with both hands.

"Hi, Xi'er~ I'm a homeless girl rescued by Chen Yu. My name is Alicia, just call me Airi."

Alicia took the initiative to introduce herself.

"Hey... that, um, okay."

Xier was a little scared by Ellie's sudden attack, but soon felt the kindness of the girl in front of her, and returned the same kindness to her.

"..."

Looking at the girl who spontaneously stuck with Xi'er in front of her, Chen Yu felt that she didn't need to introduce herself.

...Well, although they are all pink girls, Alicia is indeed quite different from the taciturn Sakura.

In short, just like Sakura before, Alicia will temporarily stay here tonight.

……

The sound of running water from the bathroom was clearly visible, and the girl's humming could even be faintly heard.

"Ah... so lively..."

However, getting along with Alicia always makes people feel relaxed and happy. Staying with her, the anguish and pain caused by the previous reincarnations seem to be swept away.

"Well, Miss Alicia is really interesting."

Xi'er sat quietly beside Chen Yu.

"...By the way, Xier."

"Well, I'm here."

"Tomorrow I want to take you to a place. I think we may go for four or five days."

Chen Yu thought about it and said.

"Is there a reason why you must go?"

"……Um."

"Okay, then I'll go with you, but the orphanage..."

Xier said with some worry.

"Alicia will find a way to find someone to take care of it."

With the power of Fire Chasing Moth, it is no problem to protect a small orphanage for a few days, although it is a small organization inside Fire Chasing Moth that caused various underworld organizations in the city to focus on this place.

"Miss Alicia is really not an ordinary person, is she?"

Xier asked with a light smile.

"...Of course, after all, it's rare to see a girl as enthusiastic and lively as her."

"Sorry~ Xier, can you help me find a dress?"

The small bathroom door was pushed open, and the girl poked her head out with her wet hair.

"Ah, ok, I'll be right here."

Xier hurriedly got up to help the helpless Alicia, leaving Chenyu alone.

He stared at the bright moon hanging in the sky, thinking about Alicia's real purpose of coming here and this orphanage.

"... She actually wants to meet [a Herrscher like herself]."

Chen Yu said to himself.

When did Alicia realize that her identity "may be a Herrscher"?

Did he discover that his abilities are more like the Herrscher's power than human beings in the battles with the Houkai?

Or is it the reason she extracted from a corpse of a Herrscher on the operating table of Mebius that she had seen with her own eyes and touched with her own hands?

There is no way to verify this point. The only thing that can be determined is that Alicia is the only Herrscher in this era who is not under the control of Houkai.

None of the remaining twelve Herrschers, including the final one, could do the same thing as her.

She is completely different from the first twelve Herrschers. She is not a Herrscher transformed from a human being, but has been a pure Herrscher since she appeared.

He insisted on following Chen Yu here to see Xi'er, probably because he wanted to see the Herrscher before he transformed into a Herrscher.

Perhaps, Alicia wanted to understand the difference between herself and them.

This is something that only Alicia, who is in reincarnation, can do. Before a future Herrscher arrives, contact her first.

In the original timeline, except for the bell that was parasitized by the Herrscher of Corrosion, she probably never had such a chance.

In Chen Yu's eyes, Xi'er is indeed just an ordinary human being at this time.

Before the arrival of the Herrscher of Death, no matter what, Chen Yu couldn't sense the existence of the Honkai energy from Xi'er, and she was just an ordinary girl with almost no fighting power.

She is like a puppet chosen by fate, suddenly wrapped in a thread of maliciousness at the predestined moment, from then on she can no longer control herself, and abruptly becomes the messenger of the destruction of civilization.

However, in Alicia's eyes, the scenery she sees may not be the same as her own. After all, she can see Xi'er from the [Herserscher's perspective].

"What, are you thinking about me?"

The pink girl suddenly appeared behind Chen Yu without anyone noticing, and made a noise quietly.

She has finished bathing.

"Where's Xier?"

"She was a little tired, so she rested directly in the room, and you should come to rest earlier."

Alicia also sat down, and she exuded a charming fragrance after taking a bath.

She was wearing Xi'er's pajamas of the same style as Sakura's last time, and it could only be said that it barely fit.

"How's your harvest?"

"Hmm~ Xier is really a very cute child."

"...You know that's not what I want to ask."

"Okay, okay~ I know you are eager to get to know me, but..."
