Kiana leveled up "Reminiscence of the Mad King" and had a conversation with Kalpas.
And this conversation sparked quite a few reactions from the audience…
"…Raiden i and Kalpas talking—it feels like they'll start fighting the next second."
Soone said that.
Right after, the long-awaited Eden finally appeared.
This world-class musician made a particularly striking entrance.
She captured everyone's attention with an exquisitely beautiful operatic note.
A perfect opener.
Following the voice, i searched forward, and a short cinematic played:
In the twilight, Eden held a golden wine glass in one hand, the other resting on a piano, gently brushing back her wind-blown hair.
"Greetings, visitor~."
This unbelievably beautiful CG illustration, paired with Eden's gentle, enchanting voice, sent countless people into a frenzy.
[Eden!! I'm your fan!!][Eden is so beautiful! Taking screenshots like crazy!]
Aside from the bullet comnts, gift alerts flooded the screen. Even Elysia, used to massive reactions, looked a little surprised.
Let alone the audience.
[So many whales in Miss Elf's stream??]
[None of them even have Miss Elf's fan badge—clearly new viewers.]
Soone explained:
[I heard Miss Elf's Honkai Impact 3rd streams are the best, so I ca to camp here. Now that Eden's here, as a devoted fan of hers, of course I had to throw so gifts!][That's right, everyone rise up! Let's flood Eden with another wave of gifts!]
At last, people understood.
These newly arrived rich fans had co specifically because they heard Eden had joined Honkai Impact 3rd and wanted to watch Miss Elf's stream.
[This is Eden's influence.][No joke, lots of people around … recently downloaded Honkai Impact 3rd just to play Elysium Everlasting and see Eden.]
So chose to spectate, others decided to play themselves.
[You must be thrilled these days, huh?]
Especially after learning that Elysian Realm only unlocks after completing Chapter 25 of the main story.
Carefully written storylines—everyone must experience them properly.
[Low-key, low-key.]
[Damn, I can already see your smug face. Pfffttttt.]
...
In the story, Eden noticed the approaching i.
"Hello, Miss i. I am the fourth of the Fla-Chasers—nad [Gold], Eden."
Fourth?
So viewers who didn't know that the Fla-Chasers' rankings weren't based on strength started pondering—Eden seems pretty strong?
Well, she's Eden after all. It's normal if miHoYo made her strong in-ga.
So even thought being ranked fourth was too low.
"Gold...?" i looked puzzled.
Eden gave a slight nod. "That's right. Elysia nad . I suppose she ant the wealth I possess."
"Although I've lived in the Thousand Windows Palace as splendid as a royal court, tasted unmatched delicacies and fine wine... I wouldn't describe myself that way."
"I'm just a singer on the stage, a ray of starlight that shines for the audience."
"Whether it's endless wealth or the title of [Gold], these are external gifts generously bestowed by others."
The atmosphere suddenly turned rather lofty.
But those familiar with Eden knew—whether in-ga or in real life—this is just how she is, and she's serious.
Money truly is the least important thing to Eden.
The bullet comnts perfectly reflected the cultural gap between the two worlds.
In the previous world, it would've been full of "rich lady, hungry hungry, feed feed"; in this world, it was all "the spirit of a songstress," "as expected of Eden."
i and Eden continued their conversation and got along quite well.
Eden smoothly bestowed her Engraved mory upon i.
After receiving Eden's gift, i resud her exploration of the Elysium.
As players listened to the distinctive voice lines that played during each Signet selection, their bonds with the Fla-Chasers grew deeper.
After spending so ti exploring the Elysian Realm, i returned to the lounge.
Having gone through multiple rounds of exploration, she felt a little tired and went to the resting area—only to find Eden leaning against the sofa, holding a wine glass.
"Eden..."
Just as i was about to greet her, Elysia suddenly popped out of nowhere and pulled her aside.
Then, Elysia playfully demonstrated how to receive gifts (i.e., gemstones of indeterminate value) from a drunken, spend-happy Eden.
Even the stream viewers were stunned by Eden's "relate-to-people-by-billions" generosity.
They sighed—truly, only in gas can such a wild scene unfold.
Elysia just giggled softly.
...
Kiana stayed focused on the ga, continuing to upgrade "Reminiscence of the Mad King."
Why upgrade Kalpas?
Definitely not because Kiana suddenly beca a Kalpas solo stan—Kalpas' Signet just paired perfectly with Herrscher of Flascion.
She is a pro Honkai player, after all! Hands on hips.jpg
After viewing Kalpas' mories, Kiana checked out Kevin's.
Both segnts referenced the Tragedy of Binding.
In Kevin's mory [Crimson Ice], one particular dialogue stood out.
After the battle to eliminate the Herrscher of Binding ended,
Elysia asked Kevin, "Will your tears freeze?"
Kevin replied, "We fight for humanity's future."
In the end, Elysia regretfully asked how Kevin planned to explain everything to Hua.
After watching this mory, most players could piece together a rough picture:
Once the Herrscher of Binding appeared, and faced with its nearly uncounterable power, humanity's only strategy was to use overwhelming numbers to test the Herrscher's damage limits.
Then, Hua used Fusang to control the Herrscher, while Kevin unsheathed Might of An-Utu and wiped out every living being in range.
In other words, while the Tragedy of Binding was caused by the Herrscher—
…the one who personally killed all his comrades, leaving only thirteen MANTIS—
…was Kevin?
That's… a bit too cruel, isn't it?
They all sowhat knew that beneath Kevin's icy exterior was a surprisingly gentle heart.
But now, a gentle person had to carry out sothing so rciless himself.
[miHoYo, how dare you hide a knife in a mory!!]
[Kevin personally killed all his comrades? I'm roleplaying Kevin and having cardiac arrest!!]
[After sothing like that, Kevin only says "Humanity will defeat the Honkai"? Dude might be the sanest one here.]
[Honestly, I'm starting to understand why Kevin's so unhinged.]
...
Although many viewers began to empathize with Kevin after learning the truth behind the Tragedy of Binding—
This was still just the tip of the iceberg.
Even just that one line—"Will your tears freeze?"—was emotionally overwhelming.
Then, Kiana guided her character deeper into the Elysian Realm and encountered Su.
By now, players were fairly familiar with Su and had gotten used to his cryptic speech patterns.
What truly made them laugh was what ca after i returned to the lounge and spoke with Elysia.
Elysia asked whether Su ever called i by na.
i said he hadn't.
And so Elysia concluded:
"He keeps his eyes closed all the ti, right? Maybe he doesn't know who he's talking to. He's scared of calling the wrong na and making things awkward—so he just calls everyone 'visitor'! Yep, that must be it!"
In real life, Elysia was also pondering:
"Yeah, yeah. Co to think of it—how does Su recognize people?"
"Could it be… Su has psychic powers?"
"Ahhh, looks like this world still hides many secrets from us~."
i: "..."
"Elysia, please don't assign random settings to the real world."
"Ehehe~."
While i and Elysia chatted—
Kiana remained imrsed in the ga, grinding mories one by one.
Viewers gradually learned more about each Fla-Chaser's past.
Those who already knew them in real life quickly ford impressions of their in-ga personas.
Similar… yet not quite the sa?
Take Mobius, for instance—
Though everyone kept their distance from her in-ga,
In real life, Miss Snake was just a bit passive-aggressive in tone, but not a bad person.
Yet in-ga, everyone seed downright afraid of her? Even calling her "a demon."
While so viewers felt this was unfair, Doctor and her assistant watching the stream found it perfectly logical.
It was Mobius, after all. Isn't being scary… expected?
The audience just had "beauty from a distance."
At least that's how they saw it.
"When will Mobius appear?"
"Doctor, are you that excited to see Dr. Mobius in the ga?"
"I already told you—Mobius joining Honkai Impact 3rd must be suspicious. For the safety of all mankind, I must study this closely."
The assistant started to wonder whether the Doctor was serious… or just making excuses.
Genius minds are always hard to read.
...
With continuous exploration of the Elysian Realm, more mories unlocked.
Players beca increasingly drawn to the Fla-Chasers' unique personalities.
Pretty faces are common—interesting souls are rare.
Even the gentle Su, or the straightforward Sakura—players could feel sothing different about them.
Of course, this process also helped i gather considerable intel.
She decided to pause progression and organize her findings.
Elysian Realm—within it lies mories encompassing everything.
Disordered, fragnted—but together, they form a complete history.
They are real events of the past—the legacy left by those who resisted the Honkai to the very end.
To uncover the aning behind this legacy would be to gain more than just one answer.
But so far, all mories remained on the surface.
All deeper paths had been severed by a single na—[Mobius].
Undoubtedly, this was soone's deliberate design.
She was guiding i toward the predetermined node.
i had made up her mind—she would go find Mobius.
And through i's inner monologue, players too could feel a storm brewing on the horizon.
[Mobius feels like a villain in Elysian Realm!]
[No need to "feel"—she's almost certainly not a good person.]
[Seriously? Are there really bad people among the Fla-Chasers?]
[Well, why do you think they're called "Chasers" instead of "Heroes"?]
[…That actually makes sense. miHoYo does love this kind of wordplay.]
[If there are good and bad ones among the Fla-Chasers… could the later story be a showdown between them?]
