Collapse, I started out as a duck's daughter?

Alicia was completely convinced. After all, she wanted it all and had no way of lying to Eden, so she could only remain silent.

She was prepared for Eden not to sleep with her for a while.

It is better to suffer a short pain than a long one in exchange for future happiness.

"Okay, my dear Ellie, I know it's hard for you. It's hard for us all."

After watching Alicia hesitate for a long time, Eden relaxed his gaze and let her go.

The main reason they gathered here today was because of Huang Quan and the others. Even Aponia came out specially. It was impossible for Eden to embarrass Alicia in front of Huang Quan because of this matter.

Of course, she was a little dissatisfied with Alicia's reaction today. Of course, she would have to settle the account later.

"By the way, my dear Ellie, how come you guys are here so quickly? Kevin and Sue's trials should take a lot of time, right?"

Eden was a little confused.

According to the plan, Huang Quan and Alicia would need at least half a day to get here, but now it has only taken less than half the time.

"Ah... this, that... Kevin and Sue had to leave the trial because of something..."

Alicia once again tried to gloss over the matter.

After all, they were eating her daughter's gift, and Alicia watched them eat it bit by bit, so there was no possibility of spitting it out.

Therefore, Alicia could say that their running away was within her expectations.

"Well, how about it, is my daughter as cute as me?"

Although her performance in front of Huang Quan was a little embarrassing, Alicia was still very proud.

Even though she doesn't look like me, Huang Quan is so cute and dependable, it must be because of her genes.

"Well, Huang Quan did inherit your strengths, but fortunately she didn't inherit your weird ideas..."

Eden was very satisfied with Huang Quan, who seemed a little restrained but overall very quiet.

It would be nice if Alysia could always be well-behaved and cute, but getting her to calm down might be more difficult than asking Qianjie to stay calm in front of Aponia.

"What? My dear Eden, that's the real me. A lovely girl must always have some characteristics."

Alicia pouted.

"Yes, my dear Ellie, although it is true, I think it would be better if you don't say that in front of Qianjie and Mebius."

Eden reminded Alicia tactfully.

After all, she liked to tease them when she had nothing to do. Su and Kevin didn't talk much, so she didn't tease them much.

Mebius and Qianjie were in trouble when they met her.

They were destined to meet Alicia.

"No way, they are obviously very happy too."

Alicia retorted.

“I also gave them a lot of things…”

After a period of revelations, Alicia and Eden looked at Aponia.

It seems that Aponia came here not only because Huang Quan is the daughter of Alicia.

She guards the eternal paradise and rarely leaves there.

Originally, Alicia planned to take Huang Quan to see her.

"Huang Quan, are you feeling okay?"

Faced with Abonya's sudden question, Huang Quan was a little stunned, but after thinking about it, she nodded slightly.

"I'm very good."

"Really... Please look at me..."

Aponia's eyes, which were originally slightly narrowed, opened and looked into Huang Quan's eyes.

At the moment when looking into Aponia's eyes, Huang Quan seemed to see countless shackles imprisoning himself.

Endless depression and painful emotions came over her, but facing this emotion, Huang Quan felt nothing. There was only a sense of emptiness and coldness in her heart.

"This is the deepest pain I've ever felt, Huang Quan, do you understand?"

Aponia's voice sounded in her mind, and Huang Quan shook his head slightly this time.

In her consciousness, black mist gradually spread over her body, causing the shackles that imprisoned her consciousness to dissipate one by one.

"I can't feel it."

Just like before, Huang Quan would only have some slight emotional changes due to the interference of the whispers in her heart, which was the power of the origin of Alicia, but she could not feel any extreme emotions at all.

"..."

After staring into Huang Quan's eyes for a long time, even Aponiya began to breathe lightly.

The black mist slowly condensed in Huang Quan's consciousness, as if noticing her sight, surrounded Huang Quan, wrapping, covering, and obscuring her.

After a long time, Aponiya closed her eyes tiredly.

"Alicea... Origin... Void..."

Aponia had felt this power from Huang Quan before, which seemed to be independent of the world. It was aware of itself, but it did not take any action, but just spread along the original trace.

If it weren't for the power of Origin, Huang Quan would have been completely contaminated by the interference of this force.

This power was very special. Even she could not detect its source and nature. Just looking at it a few more times made her consciousness begin to disperse.

“[Please] find your own meaning, even if this meaning is too heavy for you or others...”

Aponya combined the causes and effects she knew, and several images flashed before her eyes.

The cause and effect she observed, no matter how good or bad the process was, would eventually lead to a tragic ending...

She couldn't change it, but she hoped that this tragedy would have special meaning for them.

After listening to Aponya's words, Alicia and Eden, who had been watching and listening, realized that something might be wrong.

Aponia used the power from [Discipline] at least twice this time.

But now, her face still showed an uneasy expression.

As if she had noticed what the two were thinking, Aponiya just shook her head gently with a faint smile on her lips.

"It's okay. This kid still has a long way to go. Ellie, she will be stronger than you think."

"Of course, she's a cute girl after all."

Alicia knew that Abonya might have seen something, but she felt relieved after hearing what Abonya said.

"Well, the girls' tea party is almost over now, right?"

After Aponia's prediction, although the mood of the people present changed slightly, today was a happy day after all.

"Let's go, our journey to the paradise is not even halfway done..."

Alicia took Huang Quan's hand and pulled her up, then as if she remembered something, she coughed lightly.

"Oh, I seem to have forgotten to introduce you to this paradise of the afterlife, but it's not too late now, so..."

Alicia let go of her hand, walked to the front of the pavilion, and then met her surrounded by flowers and spoke softly.

"Welcome, noble and pure soul."

"You come here to explore the past."

"But the foundation of truth has long been buried in the dust of the past."

"This is the last paradise in the end times, and also..."

The pink-haired girl gave her a faint smile, but it was as bright as a bustling flower.

"The destined end of the Fire Chasers."

Alicia's words made Huang Quan silent for a while. She had some guesses about this place from the beginning.

"And what exists here..."

"They are just some fairly interesting stories."

"About the distant past, about those thirteen..."

“The story of the man who failed to be a hero.”

Alicia knew very well that this time letting Huang Quan enter the paradise of the past was not just a simple matter of recognizing relatives, but more of a matter of paving the way for the future.

Although everyone was relaxed when she and Su went to see Kevin before, in fact, their choice had already been determined.

Kevin's persistence, Su's departure...

Alicia wants Huang Quan to see the possibilities of the future and make her own choice.

Not according to what Alicia thought, but according to what she thought.

Alicia will try her best to create a beautiful memory for her.

Just like the name here.

Although the trip to paradise is not even halfway through, Alicia is already very happy.

Over the years, Alysia has always hoped that there is someone who can truly carry everything in this paradise.

And in front of her was her proudest daughter.

"This is the story of the people known as [Ying Jie], and also the unfinished journey of the thirteen fire chasers..."

Her trial is about to end, and Huang Quan is about to touch the truth of this paradise.

And Huang Quan will truly take over the power in her body.

In that case, the last bit of her consciousness remaining in the power would also be dissipated.

Alicia breathed a sigh of relief.

Then, she would no longer be able to spy on her daughter.

We will never see her and Raiden Mei's warm daily life again...

A little bit...

What a pity.

After Huang Quan heard her introduction to the paradise, he didn't say anything. He just stared at her for a long time before he spoke:

"are you still there?"

Alicia's introduction has explained everything. What remains here are the shadows from the past and the memories of the heroes.

The past in which they existed was fifty thousand years ago.

The people you are with now are the memories of the past, which means...

Alicia knew what Huang Quan meant. She still smiled faintly, walked over lightly, stood on tiptoe, hugged her, let Huang Quan lean on her chest, feeling the rhythm of her heartbeat.

Although the answer was obvious, her voice was gentle and doting.

"Mom is always here."

Chapter 72: Huang Quan: So I am also a Herrscher of Thunder?

"Okay. Cheer up, I still have a lot of things to show you..."

Looking at the pink-haired girl who was holding her and smiling happily, Huang Quan nodded slightly.

Although her mother in Paradise was a little off, her character and mentality were much better than the mother in the academy.

At least she can switch between sad and happy expressions with ease.

And it's genuine every moment.

"【Stars】, 【Infinity】, 【Heavenly Wisdom】, 【Salvation】, 【Annihilation】, and the 【Discipline】 and 【Gold】 that Aponya and Eden just gave you. The trial is almost over. I will take you to find the remaining Yingjie and get the seal. Then we can..."

So far, Huang Quan has obtained seven seals, and the process has been going well except for Kevin and Su who escaped.

"Hi, little Padu..."

The pink-haired girl brought Huang Quan to a tree and said to the cat-eared girl who was taking a nap on the tree with her tail slightly shaking.

"Sister Ai Li? Ah! Sorry, did I oversleep?!"
