She already knew how my true self would behave... but to be honest, the performance just now was alright, full of mystery and languor, and even if it were a little more ordinary, it wouldn't affect the overall impression.

Simply put, there's nothing shameful about it.

"It suddenly occurred to me... that many of your abilities have nothing to do with the fusion warrior surgery, right? The same goes for Velvi's split personality."

Luo Mo interjected with a question.

He wasn't really sure about this issue, since the manifestation of ability wasn't always so outwardly apparent...

"Hey, hey, hey, calling me a split personality makes me sound like I'm sick. Please call me a genius at creating! Even with just a few hours, I can learn to act as a professional doctor or nurse!"

"I'm not happy about it," Vilvi said.

Su's eyes flickered slightly. These words reminded him of an unpleasant experience. It was a bright afternoon when he was stood up by a group of people.

"It's very effective! It keeps my weight, complexion, and hair shine at their best!"

Alicia clenched her fist and smiled broadly.

"...Don't lie to yourself, Alicia, you've gained weight."

Mebius said ominously from the side.

For a moment, a # symbol seemed to appear on Alicia's face.

"Hmm... what about Pado, Qianjie, and Aponia? The changes in the others should be quite obvious."

Luo Mo pressed for an answer.

"Um...my changes?"

Pado scratched her head, looked down at herself, and felt a headache coming on.

Strange, what abilities does she have? She seems a bit lighter now, making it easier for her to steal things?

Suddenly, her eyes lit up as she noticed a fluffy thing. "Canned food! Canned food is my power!"

"Meow—?" The canned food meowed briefly, looking somewhat bewildered.

"...That was brought from Paradise, but Pado's appearance has changed quite a bit, with some feline features added."

Alicia replied.

She wouldn't mind a thorough assessment of Yingjie's changes; she'd prove sooner or later that she wasn't the only one who'd gained weight!

Unfortunately, Mebius can't get fatter; in fact, he can only get smaller.

"Me? Who knows what use that surgery would be?"

Qianjie sneered, "But that woman is quite disgusting."

He gestured with his chin towards Aponia.

“The precepts are my transformation, which I have deeply experienced over countless eons.”

Aponia said softly.

It seems that their final meeting did not improve their relationship.

Qianjie had a lot of opinions.

"So, the help given to nearly a third of the heroes is to integrate them into this group?" Luo Mo asked in surprise.

"Her physical constitution has been strengthened, as has her Honkai energy adaptability...except for Alicia."

Mebius didn't particularly like the surgery, but he wouldn't tolerate any criticism of it.

"Hmm... Hmm?~"

...

Mei had basically come to believe Virvi's explanation.

If Kevin and Paddo are locked up in one place, even though Evil has no intention of reopening it... they could easily stop each other.

When asked about Mebius's words, Virvié explained that she had her own plans.

The "she" here refers to Mebius himself.

"Then... what about Alicia?"

Mei uttered another name, her voice trembling slightly.

A person who was almost always there for her, who brought her all the mysteries and answers, perished because of the Herrscher of Corruption she brought.

Vervi remained silent for a moment, finding it difficult to reply.

“Alicia… I don’t want to believe it either, but her… data was indeed completely deleted by the Herrscher of Corruption.”

She hesitated for a moment before revealing the truth.

"That time with Kevin, it was because that Wilvi didn't want anyone to know that Kevin might be resurrected, so she destroyed the typewriter and forged the words 'Kevin is dead'..."

"But the typewriter wasn't damaged the time Alicia was in..."

Her meaning was self-evident.

Alicia's death was a true death; there was no possibility of any other miraculous escape.

The silence will not last long; those who are alive still have new things to do.

Velvi mentioned two things she needed to do next: defeat the extremely evil Velvi... and defeat the Herrscher of Corruption.

Doesn't that sound like obvious nonsense?

But who knows... that Velvey might be carrying out a plan to eliminate them along with the Herrscher of Corruption, even though, in my own eyes, that wasn't the best plan.

Submitting to others is not her true purpose, nor will she be content with merely that.

During an accidental touch on her memory while outside, Mei was surprised to find that... the other person was not only humble, but even somewhat self-conscious and self-deprecating.

This was not malicious.

But it came from her mouth.

"I'm just a fool with a little talent," she mumbled to Alicia, scratching the back of her head and looking down.

She spent her life reconciling with her inferiority complex.

Upon seeing the purple dragon, she paused for a moment, claiming that she might be different from the other heroes she had met, and that she, who spent most of her time sleeping, was just a girl in her early twenties.

"So... are we really going to ride this giant dragon to her side?"

Wilvi glanced at the dragon with some fear, then looked down into the abyss below, which was incredibly deep.

"...Are you ready?"

Clearly, Mei didn't pay attention to what the other person said.

"Hey!? Wait, wait, don't push me—"

"Ah... ah—"

The scream that pierced the air was deafening. At least for this moment, Mei was certain... that the other person's lung capacity was indeed that of a girl in her early twenties.

...

"Vilvie, you're not really afraid of heights, are you?"

Alicia asked in surprise.

What she was more curious about regarding her death was the scream from the other person; it seemed... somewhat familiar?

“…Oh, I see.”

Velvi muttered to herself, then looked up at Alicia and said,

"She said... she's a really, really young girl, dragons and flying are things that are very far removed from her, isn't it normal to be afraid of heights?"

"But you clearly designed quite a few gadgets that can also fly!"

"What does what the experts did have to do with my id? Oh, that's how she explained it."

Alicia merely blinked at Virvi's explanation, making no further attempt to argue.

People whose secrets have been exposed are usually quick to explain themselves.

Alicia was aware of this and also remembered that Velvi was afraid of heights.

—I've decided, next time I'm on my own vacation, I'll take her on a roller coaster.

She made the decision with a sense of joy.

"Tsk, the way my true self is showing... it's really embarrassing."

Wilvi lay listlessly on the sofa, counting the shadows of light passing through the doorway, her gaze somewhat uneasy.

"Doesn't it seem a little different from Velvi?"

Alicia blinked and leaned closer to ask.

"Ha—I've already said that she is the original Velvi, so why would anyone say she's not like her? On the contrary, it should be the other personalities—including me—who are not like her."

"But those complex inner thoughts of hers actually hindered her from becoming a genius... or perhaps she was a genius to begin with?"

"A con artist, that's her original identity."

"If Otto's deception was a perfect deception of the outside world, then Vilvie's was a perfect self-deception. How could someone who deceives themselves, truly deceives their own perceptions, be an ordinary person?"

A smile played on her lips as she watched Alicia approach with interest.

"Right? You think so too, Ellie?"

Clearly, the two have different perceptions of her past identity.

The conductor's choice to reserve his id as a trump card also reflects the trust that other personalities have in the id.

"Um... I bet that Velvi is probably rolling around in bed in the consciousness world, maybe even with a pillow over her head."

Alicia scratched her cheek, thought for a moment, and then gave her an answer.

She was quite curious about the shy Wilvi, but unfortunately she was always reluctant to come out, and she didn't know why.
