Chapter 108: Chapter 108: Look how happy she is smiling~
[Motherly Deception, hahaha...]
[The Herrscher of Sentience is really too cute...]
[Hahaha... This chapter, sometimes serious, sometimes passionate, sometimes funny, simply amazing!]
[From this perspective, the Herrscher of Sentience doesn't seem to have much defense against Fu Hua, otherwise her power wouldn't have been taken away so easily]
[After all, she's her mother, how could she have any defenses...]
Eden continued to advance the plot.
With the power of the Herrscher of Sentience granted to Fu Hua, she easily severed the connection between the controlling Herrscher and those hosts.
As a result, Fu Hua and Bronya no longer had any worries, and they directly dealt with and killed these puppets.
But unfortunately, the authority of the Herrscher of Sentience was also taken away by the Herrscher of Dominance.
"So this is what it feels like to have your power taken away," Bronya looked at Fu Hua somewhat worriedly, "What about the Herrscher of Sentience... how is she?"
Fu Hua shook her head, "She's fine, just... our conversation was interrupted."
Bronya nodded, "I didn't expect her to actually agree to help you."
Hearing this, Fu Hua couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.
"Strictly speaking, she didn't agree..."
"She's just a bit shaken, but, we're running out of time," clever Bronya immediately realized that the power was forcibly taken by Fu Hua.
"...Then she... must be furious now,"
Fu Hua: "..."
After a moment of silence, she sighed, "I'll find her and apologize to her properly, but for now, let's rescue Kiana!"
With that said, the two of them attacked the puppets blocking their path.
However, the Herrscher, who had obtained the authority of the Herrscher of Sentience, also began to try to use the power of the Herrscher of Sentience to deal with Fu Hua and the others.
However, because they had just obtained this power, they could only use very basic abilities...
That is, to simply affect the vision of Fu Hua and the others.
Seeing this, even Eden subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief for Fu Hua and the others.
But soon, the Herrscher of Dominance summoned a group of mechas, combined with the influence of the Herrscher of Sentience, making it quite troublesome for Fu Hua and the others to deal with.
"Haha... if you have the guts, you can fight these things blindfolded," the Herrscher of Dominance's voice sounded very excited.
Helpless, Bronya and Fu Hua could only rely on their senses, attacking while moving towards Kiana's direction.
But the Herrscher of Dominance would naturally not allow Fu Hua's plan to succeed so easily.
It summoned another row of puppets, blocking the road: "Hehehe~ It's a good idea, but now, with two powers in my possession, you guys-", the Herrscher of Dominance's voice was abruptly cut off, as a sudden red lightning struck down, reducing those blocking puppets to ashes.
"Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah!"
The Herrscher of Dominance let out a scream of agony.
This sudden change stunned both Fu Hua and Bronya.
"Red lightning... is it Mei!?"
The game screen switched to Mei's perspective at the right time.
The game music also became more intense.
With the puppets' screams, Mei also breathed a sigh of relief.
"It looks like it's working~"
"Cough... what... did you do?" The puppet's voice sounded weak, presumably Mei's attack just now had severely injured her.
"Nothing, just won over you in the power struggle."
"What? Do you think I don't know that when you use the Herrscher's power against us, your own power will be taken away?"
"You guys are just too weak."
"To put it bluntly, your 'control' is just bullying and coercion."
"If you encounter a stronger opponent, not only will you be injured, but your control will also be disrupted."
"Are you ready? That was just a test. Next, let's see which is stronger, your 'control' or my 'conquest'!"
"From now on, it's going to get serious."
Mei's words were powerful and reliable.
Compared to her previous self, she was like a completely different person.
Countless players were instantly captivated by this side of Mei.
Even Elysia couldn't help but show a look of regret.
"Ah~ Mei looks so eye-catching~"
"But... wasn't Mei implying that Bronya is weak just now? Hehe..."
Hearing Elysia's mischievous words, the barrage was also filled with excitement.
[Wow, she's insulting Ducky again, right?]
[Ducky: Sob... and I just got my driver's license]
Eden couldn't help but smile lightly, "If Bronya hears this, she'll glare at you again."
"Hehe~ that's fine, doesn't Eden think that a Bronya like that is super cute~~"
Bronya was watching the live broadcast.
Seeing herself innocently being teased by the barrage with "driver's license revoked," she couldn't help but emit a "Cross-Popping Veins" from her forehead and turned to stare at Mo Li.
"Boss, when are you going to reveal your health bar?"
Mo Li blinked, "Why are you suddenly asking about that?"
"I'm going to beat you!"
"Heh~" Mo Li scratched his cheek, "Just because you're teased about having your driver's license revoked, you want to beat me up?"
Bronya didn't say anything, just quietly stared at Mo Li.
Mo Li: "..."
"Alright, alright, next update we'll head to the Thus Spoke Apocalypse, and then you can beat me up..."
After hearing this, Bronya quietly turned her face away.
Actually, she wasn't particularly angry.
She just suddenly wanted to have a conversation with Mo Li on this topic.
Maybe she felt that the two of them had been watching the live broadcast without speaking, which seemed a bit too distant...
Hmm... that should be it.
In the live broadcast room, Eden continued to push the plot forward.
After being severely injured by Mei, the Herrscher of Dominance also understood that with power alone, she couldn't defeat Lightning Empress Mei.
So, she used Kiana's voice, intending to break Mei's heart.
But... this approach, in front of Mei now, undoubtedly stepped into a minefield. Listening to the voice of "Kiana," Mei became increasingly angry.
She suppressed her anger, her tone appearing extremely calm.
"I don't need to go back to the past..."
"She doesn't need to either!!"
With that, lightning flickered all over Mei's body, almost mobilizing all her power, and swung a terrifying slash in this domain of control.
This slash not only consumed a great deal of Mei's strength but also made the Herrscher of Dominance howl in agony.
The Herrscher of Dominance was severely wounded, and its control authority was completely disrupted.
The Herrscher of Sentience and Reaso authorities it had taken would soon return to Fu Hua and Bronya.
Mei also appeared somewhat weakened.
In this way, Mei would soon be kicked out of this domain.
But Mei could only do so much.
Seeing this, Eden couldn't help but feel a bit regretful.
"Ah... it seems that Mei and Kiana and the others won't be able to meet for the time being."
Elysia comforted with a playful smile, "But even so, aren't they still fighting side by side?"
Mei's terrifying slash spread throughout the entire domain.
Not only did Bronya and the others hear it, even Kiana, who was in the space of the Pestilence Gem, heard it too.
The game screen was also timely switched to Kiana's perspective.
Eden didn't know that this segment of the plot was the most tear-jerking in the entire chapter.
Seeing Kiana again, a gentle smile involuntarily appeared at the corners of her mouth.
"Is it... everyone outside?" Kiana's expression was surprised.
"It seems they're fighting against the Herrschers. In this way, the stagnant time here is finally shaking." Himeko said with a smile, "Look at what I'm saying, Kiana, you've never been alone."
Before Himeko finished speaking, a second terrifying thunderclap came over.
Kiana: "..."
Himeko: "..."
They knew that they didn't have much time left together.
After all, their companions outside were still fighting the Herrschers.
The two of them remained silent for a long time, and in the end, it was Himeko who broke the silence.
"Are you ready, Kiana?"
"I... got it, Teacher Himeko..."
"Come on, let's walk a little further." Himeko smiled.
After hearing this conversation, both Eden and the audience in the live broadcast room felt a tightness in their hearts.
They knew that next was likely the farewell between Himeko and Kiana.
...Not just Kiana, countless players also felt extremely reluctant.
Without saying goodbye yet, it was as if their hearts were being squeezed, and their breath became somewhat heavy.
In the live broadcast room, the barrage instantly decreased by a large chunk.
Eden's smile gradually disappeared.
In the game screen, Kiana and Himeko walked on an endless road.
"In the blink of an eye, you've grown so much... do you still remember when you first entered school, clamoring to become the strongest Valkyrie?"
Himeko sighed, then pretended to laugh softly, "To be honest, I also want to watch you grow up, want to go back and continue teaching you, accompany you in training..."
"The time in St. Freya's was also my most precious memory."
"The road ahead is still long, but it seems... I can't accompany you any longer."
"But remember, there are always many people by your side, who will always support you, protect you... including me."
In the scene, Himeko's eloquent words, accompanied by a soft piano melody, brought tears to everyone's eyes.
Even Elysia puffed her cheeks.
Eden's emotions were also extremely complex.
In the barrage, the words "tears in my eyes" floated slowly across the screen.
"My journey ends here, Kiana. From here on, it's your path," Himeko's gentle voice fell, and a door appeared ahead.
"After leaving that door, everything will disappear, right?" Kiana's voice sounded hoarse, as if suppressing something.
"I don't know, but... probably," Himeko said with some sadness.
"Remember to bid farewell to everyone in St. Freya's for me."
"Tell Bronya that I support her choice, but next time, she shouldn't go so hard on her friends."
"...I will," Kiana's voice was already choked up.
Eden's heart trembled, tears welling up in her eyes.
She watched Himeko's extremely gentle smile, listened to her words that seemed like last words...
"Finally, tell yourself, Kiana..."
"I will always be by your side."
Seeing this, Eden couldn't control her tears anymore, two drops slowly sliding down.
Seeing this, Elysia quickly hugged Eden, her tone full of concern, "Um~ My dear Eden, don't cry, okay~"
Eden shook her head, pulled out a tissue, and wiped away her tears, "It's okay, Elysia."
She didn't pay attention to Elysia, but continued to tap on the game screen.
Seeing this, Elysia felt a bit worried, "Eden, should we skip this part of the plot?"
Eden shook her head, "No need."
She didn't believe it. It was already a fact that Himeko had left the game. Could this plot still break through her defenses?
In the game, Himeko's gentle words continued to echo.
"Kiana... don't worry too much."
"Don't be afraid to say goodbye."
"Saying goodbye to the past is to move towards the future."
Kiana: ""
After a moment of silence, she took a deep breath.
"I understand... Teacher Himeko... I understand..."
At this moment, the BGM of "The Last lesson" suddenly played.
Eden: "..."
The extremely familiar music, coupled with Kiana's suppressed emotional tone, was really touching...
The barrage exploded instantly.
"Damn it, Mihoyo! Playing this BGM is cheating!!"
"He's here, he's coming with a speaker QAQ"
"Teacher Himeko... so gentle, sniffle..."
"I'm a grown man, but I'm crying and laughing"
"Eyes turned into bricks QAQ"
"'The Last lesson,' this is the real last lesson... sniffle..."
In the game, after suppressing it for a long time, Kiana finally couldn't hold back her emotions.
A sob came out.
And with that, countless players, Eden, were all choked up by Kiana's sobbing voice under the BGM of "The Last lesson."
"I'm sorry..."
"I'm sorry... Teacher Himeko..."
After taking a deep breath, Kiana's voice became distorted, "I know... I know that at times like this, I should smile and say goodbye to you... I should walk out of that door with strength..."
"I know this place is just a remnant of memory, reality is where I should go..."
"But I still can't help but think..."
"Is it that as long as I don't walk out of that door... time will keep standing still..."
"Will this moment... never change..."
"I didn't even have a chance to say goodbye to you..."
In the scene, Kiana was already in tears.
Outside, countless players were also in tears under the atmosphere of "The Last lesson" BGM and Kiana's sobbing voice.
"...I clearly still have a lot of things to say to you... those grand promises... I haven't fulfilled them yet..."
"This is a dream... dreams will wake up... I know..."
"I will go back... I will defeat the Herrscher of Dominance... I will take Bronya home..."
"Even if it's the Eleventh Herrscher... even if it's the Twelfth Herrscher or even the Queen Herrscher, I will defeat them."
"I will turn this imperfect story into what we hoped for..."
"but I just want you to be there to see it all..."
At this point, the BGM reached its climax.
And Eden finally couldn't hold back.
A sob escaped from her throat.
Seeing this, Elysia hugged her immediately.
"Eden, my dear Eden~ Himeko is still here, look, she's right over there."
"And I'm here with you, so don't cry, okay~"
On the other side, Himeko and Kiana, among others, were also watching the live broadcast.
Even though they had already seen through it once.
But now, seeing it again, they were also moved to tears.
Even Bronya couldn't help it.
The BGM of "The Last lesson," Kiana's sobbing, coupled with Eden's choked sobs...
Smiles were contagious, and tears were the same.
Even
Bronya, with her expressionless face, pursed her lips.
Suddenly, she seemed to think of something and turned her tearful eyes to Mo Li.
As a result, she found that he was playing Genshin Impact with his headphones on as if nothing had happened!!
"Darn it... you jerk!" Bronya angrily snatched Mo Li's phone.
"Don't mess around, Bronya, I'm playing as the Traveler."
Just as he finished speaking, he saw the red-eyed Bronya staring at him.
"Cough... I told you not to watch..."
Bronya pouted, "You watch it with me!"
Mo Li: "..."
"I refuse."
"Refusal is invalid!" Bronya grabbed Mo Li's arm and hugged it. "You sent the blade, so you have to taste it too! Don't think about escaping!"
Mo Li: "...Alright."
Can't escape, so might as well watch. As a grown man, holding back emotions shouldn't be a problem... right... maybe.
