Honkai Impact 3rd, Paradise Typewriter isn't for making this kind of game.

"Sister Mei, I'm entrusting Xiao Yuan to your care."

Bronya would be so happy to hear this news. We need to tell Bronya that Xiaoyuan is safe and sound as soon as possible. Just then... Dr. Tesla's voice came from the device Seele was wearing.

【Drip drip-】

[The coordinates of the Herrscher of Domination have been detected. Seele, please proceed to the location as soon as possible to carry out the cleanup.]

"Hey, it seems that the Herrscher of Domination is moving out of the city in large numbers. Mei-neechan, I'm going now. I'll come and visit Obuchi with Bronya-neechan after we've dealt with the remaining Herrscher of Domination individuals."

"Thank you for your hard work, Xi'er. I hope Mr. Xia Yuan will wake up by then, otherwise we'll miss out on a lot of delicious food."

"Yeah, I also want to see Xiaoyuan and my other self fighting over food~"

[Seele! Don't talk nonsense to Mei anymore! Who would steal food from that bad guy? Let's go, let's go!]

Miss Kuroki grabbed Seele's sleeve, trying to drag her out. Seeing this, Seele and Mei chuckled at the same time, "Then, Mei-neechan, we'll be going now."

"Okay, take care on your journey."

After waving goodbye, Seele quickly ran towards the coordinates. Perhaps because the individuals at other coordinates were too concentrated and obvious, Seele did not notice the Herrscher of Domination hiding near the corner of the wall.

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh..."

The Herrscher of Domination was still shaken; she had long since had enough of being treated like prey.

But that's fine too. Seele is gone and definitely won't come to the kendo dojo again anytime soon. I just need to hurry up and conquer the kendo dojo. As long as Seele isn't around, everyone else is at my mercy, even Raiden Mei.

"Hey!"

The Lady Ruler began to use her short legs to try to climb the two-meter-high wall in front of her.

at the same time--

Xia Yuan, who was lying in the secret laboratory below the kendo dojo, slowly opened his eyes and woke up from his coma.

Where am I?

His wounds seemed to have healed. Looking around at the completely unfamiliar surroundings, Xia Yuan slowly stood up from the operating table in the laboratory. "Mei, Little Greta, are you there?"

However, he received no response from those around him. He quietly left the laboratory and took the secret elevator leading to the kendo dojo above. But as soon as he stepped out of the elevator, he suddenly heard a loud thud.

thump—

"Hmm? It seems something fell off the wall of the kendo dojo. Let's go check it out."

Following the sound, Xia Yuan arrived at a bush right next to the wall. He gently parted the grass and saw the Herrscher of Domination lying slumped in the bush like a pile of discarded doll parts.

[It's only this tall, how come all the parts on the doll have fallen off? What if Raiden Mei comes over?]

wow-

Their eyes met, and the Herrscher of the Void revealed a look of delight.

Chapter 467 Follow Me to Destiny to Surrender

I didn't expect to run into the older brother as soon as I climbed over the wall. It really is love at first sight. It's clear that the older brother still has feelings for her.

"Excuse me, I'm sorry to bother you."

Seeing the Herrscher of Domination paralyzed and unable to move in the grass, Xia Yuan wanted to turn around and leave as if nothing had happened, but then he heard a sobbing sound behind him.

"Big brother, can you really bear to leave me all alone here? Is there any kind big brother who can help me put my leg back together?" Xia Yuan stopped in his tracks, his heart softening as he looked at the other person's pitiful and disheveled appearance.

Seeing that the other party had not left, the Herrscher of Dominion was secretly pleased and continued to persuade:

"Big brother, don't be afraid. Look at me now, how could I possibly do anything to hurt you? I swear that once I'm healed, I will definitely go to the Heavenly Mandate headquarters and turn myself in. Big brother, I don't know how I've managed to get through these past few days."

"Haven't you already fused with the power of the Erosion Treasure? Besides the insects, who else could be your opponent?" Xia Yuan asked curiously after seeing that the other party really had no ability to move.

"Sigh, don't even mention it. Who knows what that little girl Seele got from the other side of the sea... The power of the Herrscher of Life and Death is too much of a counter to me. I can't steal it, and I can't beat her. Big brother~ I'm already so pitiful, won't you come and lend me a hand?"

So that's how it was solved? Seele is truly amazing.

Xia Yuan was silent for a moment before slowly saying, "After you turn yourself in at the Heavenly Mandate headquarters, you must guarantee that you will completely return the power of the Erosion Treasure to her, and then apologize to her properly in person."

"Okay, okay, I'll do whatever you say, big brother. Now, can you come and help me?"

How can we help?

"It's actually very simple. Have you ever assembled a Lego figure before? This doll body is just like assembling Lego blocks. All you need to do is collect all the scattered joints and parts around me and put them back together on my body."

Xia Yuan sighed. He had just recovered and was already helping the other person pick up parts nearby. He hoped that after this incident, the other person would stop thinking about seeking revenge on Qi Bao and could live a good life.

After a moment—

[Scattered Fingers +1]

[Scattered torso parts +1]

[Scattered leg parts +2]

Xia Yuan wiped the sweat from his cheeks, gathered up all the scattered parts nearby, and brought them back to the Herrscher of Domination to begin the assembly work... He had no idea how she had fallen so badly, but thankfully it was a doll body.

Ah~ Big brother, your technique is amazing, I'm almost... oh no, I can't take it anymore...

Xia Yuan tapped the other's head in an annoyed tone, "Don't make such strange noises, I'm afraid Mei will misunderstand if she hears them."

[Who cares about that purple-haired old lady when your massage feels so good? Come to think of it, this is the first time someone else has pieced together my body. What am I going to do? Big brother, I think I'm hooked on you...]

The Herrscher of Domination moved her newly assembled arm, naturally hooking it around Xia Yuan's shoulder, twirling it back and forth with her fingertips. However, unintentionally, strands of barely perceptible silk slipped into Xia Yuan's collar.

"Stop fooling around."

Xia Yuan removed the small hand that was on her shoulder. He knew that Bronya was still waiting for him. What happened with the Herrscher of Dominion in the alley was just an uncontrollable accident. He wouldn't make that mistake again unless he had no choice.

Big brother, do you hate me that much? We already did something so intimate in that alley!

"If you keep talking nonsense, I'm leaving." Xia Yuan stopped assembling the device.

[Just shut up, big brother, hurry up and put my body back together. I promise I won't make a sound again. Of course, I believe such a kind big brother wouldn't just leave me here unattended~]

Xia Yuan continued assembling the doll body of the Herrscher of the Void. Unexpectedly, the doll remained obediently in place, without saying a word. He had thought that... given the doll's personality, it would try to use other strange body language.

But Xia Yuan found it hard to resist the affectionate look in the other person's eyes.

[Big brother, why are you staring at me like that? Does it mean you finally want to join us?]

Xia Yuan remained silent. He was already under Ya Ya's control and couldn't afford to cause any more trouble. He buried himself in assembling the doll's body until the last piece was assembled. Then, the Herrscher of Dominion stood up and spun around with remarkable agility.

"Phew...Finally, it's assembled." Xia Yuan hadn't expected to have such talent and skill. He felt that even if Bronya's studio went downhill in the future, he could still help Dr. Tesla assemble her mechs.

Yes, it's finally all put together! Big brother's craftsmanship is amazing.

"Now that I've fixed it for you, it's time to remove the corrupted power and restore the city's network to normal. Contact Schicksal headquarters and turn yourself in there. Be a good Herrscher; I'll accompany you the whole time..."

But before Xia Yuan could finish speaking, the Herrscher interrupted him, saying:

"Big brother, don't be in such a hurry~ Don't we have more important things to do before contacting the Destiny Headquarters?"

"What is it?"

"Of course, it's stealing the power of the end. It's the only way for me to survive in this world. Big brother will definitely help me, right?"

Seeing the upturn of the other person's lips, Xia Yuan already had a bad feeling, and now that feeling seemed to have become a reality. He was about to turn around and leave, but his body stiffened and remained in place, beyond his control.

"Your body... you can't move?!"

Big brother, you're already here, why are you in such a hurry to leave? He won't hurt you~

"You should save those words for Seele!"

That's why I need you, big brother. After all, you're my only support right now.

The Herrscher of Domination moved her joints and slowly walked from the bushes to Xia Yuan's side, teasingly poking his cheek with her fingertips. But Xia Yuan didn't fall for it and felt deceived.

"Big brother, don't be so angry~ I had no choice but to do this to survive. If it weren't for you taking me hostage..."

Chapter 468 Little Gretchen's Gift

[I'm afraid that in less than a week, Seele will have hunted me down to just this last remaining survivor, right?]

Big brother, can you really bear to watch someone disappear?

"Be patient."

He shouldn't have believed anything the Herrscher of Domination said the moment he met her; he should have just informed Mei directly.

Big brother, don't be so heartless~ I'm just being a hostage for a little while.

[As long as you behave yourself, big brother, I promise I won't do anything to hurt you. On the contrary... once I get the power of the end from Kiana, big brother, whatever you want, I'll get it for you. Even if you want the stars in the sky, I can pluck them down for you.]

[By then, big brother will no longer have to endure Bronya's persecution, work setbacks, or life's disappointments~]

"No need, thank you."

Xia Yuan refused decisively; he only wanted to live a simple yet fulfilling life with Bronya.

However, the Herrscher of Domination didn't seem surprised by the other party's attitude. If her older brother had given in so easily, she would have misjudged him. Once she stole the power of the end and let her older brother experience the wonderful life of being unrestrained by anyone, he would naturally not think that way anymore.

The Herrscher of Domination was patiently persuading him. She had plenty of time to bring Xia Yuan into her camp. Moreover, with her older brother as a trump card, Seele wouldn't dare to easily attack her given her personality.

Not long ago, before Xia Yuan had even woken up...

Aunt Mei watched Seele and the others leave, gently stroking the still-sleeping fairy Airi in her arms.

“Aili, when will you wake up? I can feel that you are inside this armed doll. You know... during the time you were away, Mr. Xia Yuan and I went through a lot together, and there are so many things I want to tell you.”

Mei muttered to herself as she carried the fairy Airi in her arms back into the kendo dojo.

at the same time.....

Little Grey holds up her easel, pretending no one can see her, as if she's hiding from someone.

"Sister Mei, has that red-haired Seele sister already left?"

Seeing Mei approach, Little Gretsch, hiding behind the easel, asked in a soft, sweet voice.

"Hmm, Seele and the others just left. But why have you been avoiding Seele since earlier, little Greta?"

"Mainly...mainly because that red-haired Seele sister looks a lot like the Big Bad Wolf. If Gretsch were standing in front of her, it would feel like a very delicious Little Red Riding Hood would willingly walk into a trap."

Little Gretchen said somewhat nervously, as if she was still haunted by the memory of being chased by Miss Kurohi on the train.

"Hehe~ Who can resist taking a bite of our little Gretchen when she sees her? It's just too cute!" Mei teased with a light laugh.

"Um... Mei-neechan!"

Seeing that little Gretchen's cheeks were pouting and her big, watery eyes seemed to be welling up with tears, Mei quickly changed the subject.

"Okay, okay, Mei-neechan knows she was wrong. By the way... Little Gretchen, is your painting on the canvas finished? Would it be convenient for Mei-neechan to give you her opinion?"

Little Gretchen stared intently at the content on the canvas for a moment, deep in thought.

Although this painting was a gift for Xia Yuan, meant for his appreciation, Mei is also a good friend of Xia Yuan, so there shouldn't be any major problems. In fact, Mei can even help find any shortcomings in the painting.

"Mei-neechan, do you really want to see this? This is the first time Gretsch has tried this kind of content. It's fundamentally different from her previous paintings. It's also proof that Gretsch has grown up."

"Oh? Proof that little Gretsch has grown up?"

This made Mei even more curious. Holding the fairy Ellie in her arms, she quickly walked up to Gretsch. Little Gretsch slowly presented the drawing board she was holding to Mei.

When Aunt Mei saw what was on the canvas, she instinctively covered the eyes of Airi in her arms. Little Airi couldn't look... not even while she was unconscious. She was afraid that Airi would have strange dreams. Even Mei herself was shocked and bewildered when she saw the painting.

A blush rose on both sides of her cheeks, adding to Aunt Mei's already charming aura of almost ripe maturity.

On the canvas, Bronya's hands were bound together in the air by some kind of rope, but because her legs were fixed, her body was forced to lean forward, which, although strange, accentuated her elegant body curves.

And... in the drawing board, Mr. Xia Yuan was standing, standing behind Bronya, with his hands... Mei was utterly speechless at the sight she was witnessing, especially since Mr. Xia Yuan's... well, you know... was right there on Bronya's...

"No, I can't watch anymore."

The heat in her body and the dryness of her lips constantly reminded Mei that she could hardly imagine what mental state Gretsch was in to complete this painting, so she quickly turned her gaze away from the canvas.

"Mei-neechan, what do you think? Is there anything lacking in the painting?"

Little Gretchen gazed at Mei with curiosity. From her eyes, Mei's clothes seemed to have turned fiery red after seeing the painting; red represented joy and excitement, which meant she was on the right track. How wonderful!

"No, there's nothing wrong with it..."

Mei paused for a moment. She wanted to correct little Gretsch's mistaken idea, but she had to be tactful so as not to make the other person feel sad or disappointed. "However, little Gretsch, can you wait until you grow up to be as big as Mei-neechan before you draw such pictures?"

"But Mei-neechan, if we're talking about age, I'm actually about a civilization older than you, right? Eden-neechan once said that art knows no age."

Little Gretchen looked at Aunt Mei with a puzzled expression, hoping that the other party would give her a satisfactory answer.

"Eden, Eden, what have you been teaching little Gresh?" However, Mei didn't think that Eden's teaching was problematic, but rather that little Gresh's understanding was flawed. This kind of artistic field was simply too early for little Gresh.

"I mean, when little Grey grows up to be as tall as Mei, then we can do this kind of... uh... artistic creation, okay?"
