Chapter 118: This Damn Sense of Security
***
“That idiot from before really was clumsy, but… Elysia, about her, don’t you plan to explain sothing to us?”
Leaning against the girl’s body, Mobius half-closed her eyes, feeling that just-right amount of pressure. While her whole body relaxed, she didn’t forget to voice the question that was on her mind.
“Hmm~ So you noticed 【my】 abnormality? But looking at your expressions, don’t you already have the answer in your hearts?”
Because of Elysia’s little revenge plan, Jiang Qiao wasn’t clear about the small misunderstanding that happened between Elysia and Mobius and the others. But through Mobius’s words, he had already guessed what roughly happened during the ti that stupid fatty had switched back.
However, he didn’t really care about the slip-up being exposed.
“So, she really is the original Elysia after all.” Mobius showed an expression of understanding.
Unlike Elysia who hadn’t made contact with I and Vill-V, from the beginning, the one she had contact with was Elysia, not 【Elysia】. Later, although their relationship was still just a first acquaintance, she hadn’t paid much attention to that strange sense of discord.
It wasn’t until she saw Elysia again and learned certain truths from Vill-V and I that she confird this thought.
“What’s wrong, don’t I look like her?”
“Pretty similar. Honestly, compared to you, I prefer her more.”
— Except for the massage techniques.
When Mobius spoke, there was a hint of disdain in her tone.
Because 【Elysia】 purity was really too high, so naturally, the snake’s dislike value for Elysia was also higher.
But she had to admit that in terms of massage techniques, she preferred the current 【Elysia】 a bit more.
“Ah, saying you prefer another girl in front of a girl is a very bad thing, you know? I’m hurt.”
However—
This is fine.
After all, I am not Elysia.
The pink-haired girl smiled like this.
“I saw the leave you applied for from the organization. Where are you planning to go?”
Although she didn’t manage this aspect, due to the fact that they were now considered allies, Mobius also paid attention to Jiang Qiao’s movents.
Regarding this question, 【Elysia】 fell into brief silence.
— He wasn’t clear about where exactly the 4th Herrscher eruption occurred, after all, miHoYo’s description of the Previous Era’s Honkai eruptions wasn’t that comprehensive.
To explore the location where the Honkai eruption would break out, he needed to personally investigate various places.
This point, even I, who was now also a Herrscher, couldn’t replace him.
Because the ability to observe the imaginary internal energy of the dark side was essentially an extension of the Herrscher of Origin’s authority.
Only the Herrscher of Origin could observe this extrely hidden phenonon by virtue of their distance from The Cocoon.
And it had to be an awakened Herrscher of Origin. Soone like the current Miss Fatty who was half-baked couldn’t see anything at all.
However, if he had to search place by place, that would be too slow. By the ti he found it, the 4th Herrscher eruption might have already occurred.
So—
“I plan to go to New Xilan first to take a look.”
The girl said this.
New Xilan — also known as the alternative na for New Zealand, but in the Previous Era this beca the official designation.
Of course, what it was called didn’t matter. What mattered was that the 4th Herrscher eruption in the later world had erupted from New Zealand.
Following the fatalism of the Honkai series, Jiang Qiao felt that starting from there might quickly yield results.
“…Be careful.”
She unconsciously said this sentence. When Mobius realized what she’d said and saw 【Elysia】 smiling at her, she wanted to slap herself and swallow those words back.
Although saying farewell words like that was normal, considering the identity of the girl in front of her as a Herrscher, such words beca extrely foolish.
What am I doing? Actually telling a Herrscher to be careful?!
“I received it. By the way, Dr. Mobius like this is also very cute~”
“I’ll bring you little gifts from New Xilan afterwards.”
Getting up and walking to the opened imaginary cavity, the pink-haired girl smiled cheerfully, brought two fingers together in a very playful farewell gesture, then said softly:
“Then—”
“I’m off.”
Watching the disappearing 【Elysia】, Mobius sitting on the Spirit of Origin was sowhat dissatisfied. “Hmph, that Elysia!”
“Hmm~ I feel like soone is thinking about . Is it Dr. Mobius? Right?”
From the suddenly opened imaginary cavity, the pink-haired girl who poked her head out smiled as she t Mobius’s gaze.
“Hehe~”
A small pink fist gently tapped the latter’s head. Combined with that smile, it directly made Mobius’s originally pleasant mood fill up her anger bar to maximum.
“E-L-Y-S-I-A!!!”
Angry shouts echoed through the space, but unfortunately the successful perpetrator had already escaped with a smile, disappearing into this imaginary space.
…
“That person called Cocolia plans to go to New Zealand?”
Elysia listened to the intelligence leak from the “yakuza princess,” and her beautiful eyebrows couldn’t help but furrow.
Honestly, she rarely disliked anyone.
But Cocolia was an exception.
Disregarding others’ lives for her own selfish desires, even wanting to sacrifice an entire city’s people to achieve her goals — such a person could only be called a villain, right?
To this day, Elysia could still recall the powerlessness and despair she felt in Corp’s underground base, only being able to watch helplessly as the lives of this city rapidly vanished along with the countdown on the screen.
According to Bronya’s intelligence, this ti Cocolia’s target seed to be the Gem of Desire…
Although she didn’t know what the so-called Gem of Desire was — Jiang Qiao hadn’t explained the concept of gems to her either, after all, theoretically that was too distant for them, rather than obsessing over other things it was better to focus on the present, Elysia could vaguely feel it.
If the Gem of Desire fell into Cocolia’s hands, it definitely wouldn’t be a good thing.
To prevent that person from plotting another sche like a New Zealand Honkai eruption,
Elysia’s heart instantly made a decision:
“— We must stop her.”
The girl’s tone was resolute and firm, just like when she first t Jiang Qiao.
Just as Miss Elf was calculating how to get to New Zealand, Raven, who had been absent for a long ti while biting a lollipop, proactively took out several tickets and docunts and pushed them in front of Elysia, saying casually:
“Here~ These are boat tickets and passports to New Zealand.”
At this mont, Miss Fatty was sowhat surprised, but after the surprise, more than anything was confusion.
Logically, Bronya should have just told her this intelligence.
She hadn’t even had ti to tell Kiana and i yet.
But Miss Dodo had already prepared the boat tickets and passports? Too reliable!
But to this, Raven just waved her hand:
“Don’t look at , it was that pink rogue’s instruction.”
Elysia: ⊙ω⊙
— Where the hell does this damn sense of security co from?
