To create Honkai Impact 3rd in a world where Kallen exists.

"Kevin, have you decided what to do?"

He slowly opened his eyes, looking at his companions, Aponia and Sue, who were anxiously waiting for his decision.

"Well, I see..."

He nodded slightly, his thoughts unreadable.

A person's destiny is determined by their character.

Even when Mei pressed him for answers, he remained silent, only saying that it was none of her business.

Now, he seems hesitant and indecisive.

At the moment of Alicia's death, his decision was... to wait.

Then, Su called Mei over and begged her to help him complete a task: to determine whether Alicia had disappeared or vanished, and whether there were any related clues.

Mei is responsible for helping him block out obscure things.

However, the result was not satisfactory. Not only could they not find any trace of Alicia, but they also discovered that Sakura's data was flawed.

Kevin also intends to completely seal this result away; he wants to accomplish something on his own.

The next place to go is Paradise Typewriter.

There might be something there.

...

Alicia is dead—

Countless sheets of white paper fluttered down from the sky, covering the ground in a profusion.

As soon as Mei and Kevin stepped into the house, they could see the mess inside. Papers were scattered all over the floor, and the typewriter was broken beyond repair.

She picked up a piece of paper from the ground. The black characters on the snow-white paper were quite eye-catching, and some words were clearly written on it.

-

Alicia died Alicia died Alicia died

Alicia is dead. Alicia is dead.

Each page had similar handwriting, a messy yet orderly mess, each word looking as if it had come straight from a printer, and this was what made Mei especially terrified.

I even felt the originally warm breeze turn chilly, and the joyful scene before my eyes vanished.

Suddenly, she felt a chill creep up from the bottom of her heart and spread throughout her body.

The day after Alicia promised to answer all the riddles, the Paradise Typewriter, which claimed to print absolutely accurate answers, delivered news of her death.

Every single one of them is like that; the whole story is about Alicia dying.

Mei took a deep breath, smoothed the paper with her fingers, placed it on the table beside her, and looked at Kevin over there.

Beside the typewriter, Kevin discovered a new clue: the story of Sakura and her sister, printed out on a typewriter called Absolutely Accurate.

Sakura... and Alicia, two people who should not have crossed paths at this time, ended up together due to a series of coincidences.

Sakura's file has now appeared at the current location.

It provided a clue to what was originally a somewhat suspenseful case, but it also felt like a poison pill.

Kevin pondered the matter indifferently, without making any arrangements.

Mei, disappointed by his actions, chose to separate and leave, parting ways with Kevin.

She decided to go out and seek clues from Klein or Kevin outside, which was far better than wasting time here.

[Dead, dead, we know he's dead, no need to keep emphasizing it (sad)]

[How could this happen?! My goddess Alicia is shattered!]

[You're dead, it's all your fault.]

[So, the thousand Herrschers weren't all dead, were they? Archbishop, lead us on one more charge!]

The sentiment is exciting.

I couldn't sleep all night.

However, within the company, the thousand-strong Law Master within Su Luo still had something to say.

—Don't put all the blame on us! We were a bit bad, but we weren't bad enough to kill them all! This screenwriter should have been chosen as the Herrscher of a Thousand People; his own malice was definitely more than what he absorbed!

The energy of the Nine Heavens erupted, and all the thousand Law Masters contributed their share.

As for the matter of Chongshu, it is clear that the bishop they hoped to lead them is no longer able to do so.

All they faced was the fact that Alicia was dead. They were stunned, unable to believe it.

...

In the Golden Courtyard,

"Who is it that printed so many messages about Alicia's death? That's outrageous!"

"Exactly, even if something serious happens, a typewriter should only print one page. Why so many? Is it targeting Sister Ellie? No, it's not."

Pado was indignant, but also felt a pang of heartache as she looked at the damaged typewriter.

If she had a typewriter… wouldn’t she be able to find out the locations of all the treasures in Paradise?!

Wow, that can earn so much money! Those shiny, round gold coins!

Chapter 72 One in Ten percent certainty

Pado's eyes lit up. That typewriter had become her favorite. If she had that typewriter, how many obstacles could she overcome in her business of purchasing goods?

If I gave it to her...

Wow, wouldn't the location of all these valuable items be completely revealed? And there would be countless clues to precious intelligence, secrets... Just thinking about it makes me excited.

"...Alicia, don't look at me like that. I'm part of the group watching your corpse in this scene."

Mebius couldn't bear to look directly at the other person, so he took a step back and said quietly.

"But isn't there always a saying among the Moths of Flame? What... if anyone's feeling unwell, it's definitely Möbius's doing."

Alicia raised an eyebrow and spoke leisurely.

She was aware of the fact that she died at the very beginning of the story, since she was the main voice actress. She couldn't possibly claim to be completely unaware of it.

"Don't deliberately omit a line. There's still Thousand Tribulations to come, and... death should be considered damage, right? So, it was Thousand Tribulations who did it!"

Mebius frowned, looking at the other person with displeasure. She knew that the other person just wanted to make fun of her.

But she would never stoop to spreading the news that Alicia was dead.

Just Alicia...

"Kevin, if pulling the trigger could save most people, what would you do?"

Alicia looked at her other companion, Kevin, who had a cold expression and was looking at the screen as usual.

He looked over at that moment and said calmly, "This time... I think I made the choice that suits my heart."

"Oh?~" Alicia's eyes lit up. She stared at Kevin's icy expression for a long time before nodding. "Then I'm really looking forward to it. In the space of memories, Kevin, will you be able to accomplish this thing that you care about most?"

Kevin: "..."

"That's not what I care about most."

He just shook his head.

"Hehe, I was just saying it casually. After all... when I was in trouble, you remembered that sentence... It seems that what happened that time really left a scar on your body and mind."

Alicia said simply, her fingers intertwined, feeling a little embarrassed. She hadn't expected that her words would stay with her for so long. Saving the world... indeed, it meant carrying the regrets of everyone in that era on her shoulders.

She never harbored any resentment towards the other party; it was simply her own choice.

As for what I care about most, it seems to be related to Mei.

"Hmph—and what about you, Alicia?" Mebius asked casually.

"Oh?"

"The thing you care about most... Think about it, who knows, you might die before you've even finished anything, wouldn't that be kind of funny? Oh, don't get me wrong, I'm talking about both reality and the game, both."

Mebius tilted his head, showing no intention of looking directly at the other person, and asked quietly in a cold voice.

He still enjoys reopening old wounds and displays a sarcastic and unsettling demeanor.

"If I had to say... it was already half-finished not long ago."

Alicia scratched her cheek, somewhat gleefully recalling the events of a few days ago—the feeling of fighting together…it was truly wonderful.

Many heroes, though working behind the scenes, also provided corresponding support.

"Huh? Are you out of your mind? Not long ago... you mentioned gaining weight again, did you become a chubby elf? Or did you say you felt so good having afternoon tea with the three Theresas and the three Fu Huas, and hoped to remember this day forever? Or that... Klein complained that she's gradually returning to her original form, and you're still hugging her like a doll..."

Which one sounds like your wish?

Mebius frowned and criticized sternly.

Although, in her opinion, they all seem quite similar.

Alicia remained silent, and everyone present fell silent as well, looking at each other with strange expressions.

Mebius's concern for Alicia is a bit excessive.

"Cough cough," Alicia seemed to have choked on a glass of water before slowly relaxing and letting out a somewhat dejected sigh. Look, look, is this really how her companions perceive her?

“Dr. Mebius, your thinking is a bit strange. What I care about most is probably just fighting alongside all my comrades.”

She said dejectedly.

"Hey, hey, hey, did you notice...?"

The Herald of Knowledge leaned close to the old antique and whispered something. Luo Mo also leaned in closer, since he had accidentally...

"Mebius and Alicia's relationship isn't as bad as she makes it out to be!"

She was as excited as a child, as if she had discovered a new continent.

Luo Mo felt bored and stepped back, pushing up his invisible glasses as he looked at the angry figures of Mebius and the smiling figures of Alicia in front of him.
