Watch Honkai Impact 3rd, and let fan creations save the world!

[Black Swan]: "So... Eden made its move."

"Otherwise, who knows how long you would have hidden!"

"Honestly, you all promised to take me with you when you played hide-and-seek! You all ran off, and I had to look for you for ages!"

[Shut up]: "Aili did appear. Who said Fairy Aili isn't Aili?"

[Theresa]: "Mei seems to be on the verge of despair right now. The heroes have worked so hard for so long, but in the end, they have failed because of her."

[March 7]: "Mei looks so sad. She has never been this sad since this light screen appeared."

[Star]: "Mei: I can't do anything!"

【Eden】: "Keep moving forward, Miss Mei, and give the heroes a perfect ending."

Let us fulfill our mission.

"The absence of one memory must be filled by another."

“You have completed ninety-nine steps toward Ellie, and this final step will be taken by me and the fairy Ellie.”

"That's right, because she's just me, all grown up!"

[Silver Wolf]: "I know Eden would be willing to die for Airi, but I don't understand why the fairy Airi would also use a knife!"

[Tail]: "Look on the bright side, at least we've completed the entire encyclopedia. There are no living people in the entire Paradise of the Past, and even the armed puppets have to die once!"

【Huo Huo】: "Grandpa Tail!"

【Crow】: "Moreover, the heroes died at least once, and if we include them in reality, the number of deaths would be even more."

"Eden..."

"Please don't worry about me, Miss Mei."

"I am not afraid of anything; to me, life is just a long drama."

"If the show can end at the most appropriate time and in the most perfect way, then it will be perfect."

"Then, let's begin. The moment for them to bloom has finally arrived."

Eden opened her palm, and bright light flowed from it, gradually gathering into a crystal flower of two different colors, one gold and one purple.

"Four flowers, four bunches..."

Mei also stretched out her hand. The flower in her palm was a blend of black and blue, exactly the same as the one in Eden's hand.

"Sharing the same path..."

"Then, it's time to bring everything back to light."

"Miss Mei, I'm entrusting everything else to you..."

Eden held her hand tightly, the brilliance of the crystal flower reflecting each other, weaving the most precious memories of the singer at the end of an era.

"Please, you must bring Ellie—our family—back to this world."

[Robin]: "To become a part of Alicia... that is certainly a very special thing."

[Silver Wolf]: "Haha, this is candy! This is high-purity Yi Ai candy! Eat it! Why aren't you eating it?"

[Firefly]: "Here, Silver Wolf, this is toilet paper."

[Star]: "Hilarious! There's a crying silver wolf here. Great, I've achieved the Thirteen Heroes Match-3 achievement."

[March 7th]: "Very good, the position of the leader of Hell's Jokes is yours to sit in!"

[Fu Xuan]: "Next is the ultimate secret of the Paradise of the Past, which is the answer that Mei came here to seek. But right now, for Mei, Alicia is more important."

"Standing on the opposite side of humanity..."

"This is the history I can deduce from the archives of Paradise and the fragments of words spoken by heroes... but..."

"...Is that really the case?"

"Then why did the whole story... become a piece of history that has been erased?"

Eden nodded approvingly:

"Miss Mei, you've already noticed that there are many problems with this statement..."

"Because it is just one thing, to explain to others and future generations why she left."

"And there is only one solution that can transform everything into..."

"That is what you have been searching for."

Eden smiled.

[Star]: "Still the riddle teller, still the riddle teller!"

[Theresa]: "At a point like this, why don't you explain things clearly!"

[March 7]: "It seems that there are still many secrets about Alicia's identity. Maybe she was born a Herrscher or something."

Silver Wolf: "What you're saying... makes some sense."

[Gui Naifen]: "Just keep watching, Xiao Guizi and Changshang have already given up thinking."

"After all... I can be scared too."

"...Haha, thank you, Mei."

"I'm so lucky to have met you this way. You gave me... something I've always longed for but never dared to hope for."

Those fragmented words, when pieced together, led to the only answer.

"So... Alicia..."

"...She was never anything, was she?"

"Thirteen is a false number."

"She scattered one to the world, just to say it to her loved ones on her final journey."

Under Mei's expectant gaze, Eden revealed the truth Mei had been searching for: "The second of the Fire Chasers, Alicia of the Nameless, this girl who deeply loves all..."

"She was born unique."

Mei was shocked.

[March 7]: "Alicia was truly born a Herrscher. In that case, Alicia is the First Herrscher. What do you think, Uncle Yang?"

[Bengtie Walter]: "...I'll sit and watch."

[Silver Wolf]: "So... Alicia betrayed the Honkai. So this is what Mebius meant by 'traitor'."

[Möbius]: "No."

[Theresa]: "In a time when the Herrschers of the previous civilization had no self-awareness, Alicia's existence was nothing short of a miracle, which explains why Alicia was so eager to see Mei."

[Alicia]: "Yes, my dear Mei is the first Herrscher I've ever met who fought for humanity."

Chapter 290 The Banquet, The Breaking of the Threads of Fate (4000+ words)

No wonder someone like me made her so happy…

All the inexplicable questions from the past have been answered, but this only makes Mei feel more incredulous.

"If all of this is true, then what lies beneath her smile..."

"How lonely...how sad it must be..."

But Eden corrected her, "If it were Ellie, she would definitely say that..."

"That's not it, it's more like it. It's about being happy that you once had a certain kind of happiness, and hoping that miracles will still happen in the future."

“Look, Miss Mei, your arrival… is exactly what she has been waiting for.”

"As for loneliness... Ellie is indeed a girl who is afraid of loneliness, just like a crystal flower, beautiful and flawless, but also very fragile."

"She loves humanity so much, and so...desires it."

"This is what Ellie carried throughout her life, and it is what she finally achieved by transcending fate."

"So... Miss Mei, please go and witness that ending on our behalf."

"Ellie will be waiting for you behind that door, and your journey will eventually blossom at the end of all memories..."

In the end, Eden hummed Airi's favorite song, a blessing for Mei and a celebration of Airi's return.

May we never be apart, may time... stand still in this moment...?

The Yingjie files resurfaced for the last time, revealing the last of the thirteen Yingjie. Eden shattered, and with that, none of the thirteen Yingjie survived.

Theresa: "Now... there's no one left."

[Scott]: "Hey, you guys, try to look on the bright side. The sound of Eden shattering can be imagined as fireworks welcoming Ellie back!"

Silver Wolf: "You little brat, you're a real beast!"

[Star]: "I really want to be human!"

【Gui Naifen】: "Xing...you are not Alicia. You can be said to be...beginning to take human form and having some understanding of human nature."

[Star]: "Don't slander me! I have countless accolades to my name, befitting my high moral character!"

[Firefly]: "That's right, Mingming looks so energetic now!"

Silver Wolf: "Indeed, the Star Train is good for people."

"And all of...

As she stepped inside, memories of that banquet seeped into Mei's mind. Just like the person involved, Mei felt the memories of that time.

"Alright, from now on, let them stay by your side as companions."

“Even if I leave, these four crystal flowers will never wither. So…”

"Everyone, can you smile?"

Kiana: "Why is this part a black screen? Shouldn't this show the meeting from back then?"

[Silver Wolf]: "Heh, you know it's a knife and you still don't dodge? How can we possibly laugh in this situation!"

[Star]: "Because smiles don't disappear, they just shift. Can't you see your smile right now by looking at this dark screen?"

Raiden Mei: "Is a bitter smile considered a smile?"

[Fireworks]: "How can it not count? Otherwise, where have all the smiles gone?"

This explanation won't cause you much trouble.

"After all, I am special... Telling the truth will probably only cause more chaos."

Vivi noticed Ellie's concerns and said gently:

"Don't worry, Alicia. I'll use several lies to cover up... to protect your secret."

"Deceiving the world, even deceiving history, is not difficult for me. Let it be a blank page in the book."

"As for Yingjie, who was not present today... I think their absence is the best proof."

"Those who left the banquet did so because they believed in Alicia and refused to fight; those who remained attended the banquet did so because they believed in Alicia."

“See... those you believe in have always believed in you. Those you love have always loved you.”

"Um, thank you, I didn't expect that..."

Ellie smiled sweetly: "I'm really happy. It's a pity that dear Möbius isn't here. I was hoping to give her a green crystal flower."

Velvi added, "After receiving the report from the Firemoth about the Thirteenth Herrscher, she didn't even glance at it before throwing it into the shredder."

[Mébius]: "Hmph, don't overthink it. I just... just didn't think the fusion warriors I was researching would become Herrschers!"

Kiana: "Dr. Mebius shouldn't be so stubborn now."

[Star]: "Don't ruin our worldview of our past paradise. Möbius's stubbornness is our underlying logic, and it cannot be changed!"

[Raiden Mei]: "I never imagined... that the clues my future self learned were all just fabrications by Velvet."

[March 7th]: "Has a fictional historian infiltrated paradise?"
