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

"Let me think, roughly when was that?"

Mebius raised an eyebrow, somewhat surprised.

At first, she was genuinely deceived by Vilvi's series of lies, thinking it was something sinister.

"Hmm... She's not suited to that era, nor is she suited to Paradise. But she certainly won't choose to be with a Herrscher, so don't worry."

"Vellvier smiled and said."

"Alas, I was forced to suppress my talents and exile the greatest enemy of mankind—arrogance..."

"I suddenly feel a little sorry for you, Velvi. Spiral Inscription, you are everything, and the beginning and the end. You want to explore your relationship with infinity, don't you?"

Mebius said.

She admitted that she had become quite curious about Vervi.

Chapter 84 Eroding Love

Following Qianjie's death, this is the sixth hero to die—Vilvie.

The death of Vilvi provides a basic and detailed explanation for the whole story. Fifty thousand years of suppressed pride and self-confidence finally turned into a sharp blade in her loneliness, piercing herself. The situation she meticulously planned was only for the brilliant end of the person she had promised to.

She left behind hope for victory and also revealed her true colors to the world.

She also has a place among the sealed secrets, and the gray crystal flower fills in the last missing piece.

But at this moment, Velvey, who was in the present era, obviously did not want to arouse Mebius's curiosity about her, or that he might take a probing action.

She slumped back on the sofa in exasperation and yawned.

"Möbius, at most you're saying that the meaning of the spiral matches your infinite pattern a tiny bit, why bother with that?"

"Ha—so, this is why you always managed to disassemble parts with infinity icons in your previous works? And, coincidentally, that part in my lab was lost?"

Mebius sneered.

Why would the other party need parts from her if they lack sufficient funds for their experiment?

Is she really that fulfilled?

"Alas, the world is always full of all sorts of miracles. I know that you, with your scientific rationality, do not want to place your hopes on so-called miracles. But... the world is always full of possibilities."

Wilvi comforted her with kind words.

She only borrowed it a few times at most, and when it was discovered, it was all taken apart and returned to the other party.

As for those that can't be dismantled... that's a matter of the other party's ability.

"Tsk, never mind, speaking of the plot... Your ending is exactly what you wanted. The protagonist and antagonist are both your own duels, and the only winner is the name of Velvi. It's grand yet poignant, bringing surprises, leaving mysteries, and then gracefully exiting the stage."

"Isn't this what you wanted?"

Mebius said sarcastically.

"Oh? It sounds like Dr. Mebius is quite dissatisfied with his downfall... Well, you prepared a plan to defeat the erosion, but you didn't succeed on your own. Something must have gone wrong?"

A smile played on Wilvi's lips as she looked at the other person's somewhat gloomy expression.

"...It's alright, I guess."

Mebius was clearly unwilling to say more, and his unpleasant expression only improved slightly when he glanced at Klein.

She also had to admit that the events that occurred in the game did indeed reflect their real personalities.

The future... was almost revealed before her eyes.

She will never allow that future to happen again.

“Spiral…I am the group, what a cool line!” Kiana said excitedly, her face flushed slightly.

"You should have seen all eight of my personalities by now."

Vervi glanced at Kiana and responded.

The scent emanating from her is truly peculiar... it carries a hint of the end. Is she the key to defeating the Honkai?

"Ah—, I thought it was the clone technique the boss was talking about, something like... Kasumi's ninjutsu."

Kiana playfully stuck out her tongue and hugged Mei's arm tightly. "It's probably because you find it unbelievable that you can have a split personality."

"Schizophrenia... I was just creating a personality. I hated myself, so I had to mold an alternate version. Like that... Möbius, who was born with innate knowledge, he could solve problems from birth."

Vervier corrected him with a smile, not forgetting to tease Mebius at the end.

Möbius's face darkened. This genius was born knowing how to solve problems; her hands couldn't even hold a pen properly! Besides… if she was born with innate knowledge, why bring up solving problems?

"ah?--"

Kiana stared blankly, somewhat incredulous.

Doing homework... is still a very painful thing for her. Can it compare to her fighting skills from a very young age?

"The appearances of all the Velvies... were truly epic, and their exits were like the end of a performance, as if they would bring a new show at any time."

Eden smiled and made his assessment, habitually taking a sip from the rim of his glass; the red liquid inside was almost gone.

"I'm kind of looking forward to it."

She sighed softly.

"Oh? Then don't miss my performance next time, Eden~"

“I have a great idea, Eden. You give a performance, and then I’ll put on a grand magic show. That way, the audience will definitely be the largest I’ve ever seen.”

Vervi's eyes lit up, and the joy in her eyes undoubtedly revealed her current identity.

Although they are all from the same company, the magicians and experts generally spend more time outside and have a lot more work to deal with.

If they really needed to go out, the other personalities could have already gone out to chat at any time...

Eden smiled without saying a word, neither explicitly refusing nor agreeing.

Putting aside the fact that she had no intention of continuing to perform, the possibility of injury caused by the other party's performance was enough to make her give up the idea.

"Sigh, what a captivating performance, just like the one from Kira Star."

Luo Mo couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.

"Hmm? Qiluo Star, who is that? A rising star? Is he even half as strong as Eden?" Velvi leaned closer and asked curiously.

Is her performance the same as that of Qiluo Star?

How bad must their performance have been... no, how captivating!

Despite abandoning her rational self-awareness, Vervi remained immersed in the overwhelming joy of her magic trick.

"It seems... I've heard something about it, and it came from you. I even searched for it, but I didn't find a single clue," Eden said, frowning.

"Hmm...in terms of power, they should be about the same."

Luo Mo pondered for a moment and came to a conclusion.

In any case, they are all so engrossed in it that they don't want to wake up; they're probably all pretty much the same, he thought to himself.

"Your word choice is so strange. Is this how you write screenplays? And 'power'... Oh well, since it hasn't happened yet, we'll encounter it eventually."

Alicia became increasingly interested in this person. Someone who could make Luo Mo so infatuated... must be a beautiful girl!

Hmm... I hope she's not a loli. Although it would be nice if she were a loli, she'd be Luo Mo's type.

Unbeknownst to many, Luo Mo has already been labeled a lolicon.

...

In the game, we return to a side quest where an animation is playing, featuring a conversation between the real Velvet and Alicia.

"After all, I'm a con artist."

"The first time we met, the night you barged into my room, I already knew..."

Wilvi hesitated, struggling to find the right words. The other person's eyes always seemed to see right into her soul, but... she wasn't good at making eye contact while talking; it always made her nervous.

"This woman seems to have a 'secret.' Or rather..."

"A lie?" Alicia tilted her head, leaned closer to the other person, and said.

"No... I think it's just a secret..."

Velvi shook her head. She trusted her intuition, and she also trusted... what she saw.

"That's really going too far. How can you call a beautiful young girl 'older sister'? We're about the same age, or even... I might be a little younger?"

"Let's take a look at this instead... Kevin Armed Model 666."

"A terrifying invention that wipes out the entire Paradise of the Past at once... Velvi, you should seriously consider its activation conditions."

Alicia said with a slight headache.

"It concerns everything left behind by the thirteen heroes. Whether it's unanimous approval or majority rule... I think neither is the best option."

"Vilvie said softly, having already decided on the activation conditions in her mind."

"But it's hard to imagine what kind of situation would force us to activate it."

"So, I think..."

"Alice, since you're the one who made us leave this story behind."

"Then it should be you who puts an end to it...."

"Your secret... I also hope it can open in the grandest way, and then... close in the same grand way."

This was her promise to Alicia.

That's also... the real reason why she was unwilling to accept the extremely evil Velvi's plan.

[The activation condition is Alicia, right? The heroes only agree with Alicia's choice.]

[Vilvie discovered Alicia's secret on their first meeting and has kept it as a promise ever since.]

[Sister? Does that mean Velvi is going to call Alicia "little sister" too?]

...

It was an exceptionally long journey. Mei witnessed the complete spiral, felt life slipping through her fingers, and realized who the real enemy was.
