Honkai Q&A, Starting with Kiana

"Don't say that. At least I've confirmed it for you. The so-called "God's will" is just people's imagination. "

"The **** who rules the Herrschers does not exist. At least in me, the consciousness mentioned by those believers has never appeared."

"All I can feel is chaos, like a cocoon waiting for rebirth..."

"It seems to be telling me... everything we have experienced in the past is neither a judgment nor a trial..."

“But just a ‘hug’. "

"But...for humans, this hug is a bit too painful."

Alicia's tone is very complicated. She loves humans and has a good relationship with everyone in Fire Chaser. She also always likes to express her feelings with hugs.

I never thought that the impact of the collapse on civilization was neither a judgment nor a trial.

It was an ordinary hug, an unconscious approach.

Just like children, when they see something they are interested in, they like to put it down and chew it.

Just like Alicia sees a cute girl and wants to touch her horns.

An act that was neither malicious nor well-intentioned, but caused irreparable tragedy and pain.

Alicia would rather the essence of collapse is malice towards civilization, just like the enemy brings about war with malicious intent, rather than a meaningless embrace.

This was too cruel to the soldiers who died under the collapse.

Alicia was thinking like this, but she didn't know that there was someone next door to the sea of ​​trees who wanted to welcome back her compatriots and use all-encompassing methods of destruction on the ants that deceived her compatriots.

It can only be said that Alicia's flawless hope is too far away for the collapsed world.

"Perhaps this is the price civilization must pay to say goodbye to "childhood." "

"Of course it's fun to be a child, but it also means putting your destiny in the control of others."

"We will not be trapped by this planet after all - break out of the cocoon and fly to the vast stars. That is the mission of the fire moth, and it belongs to the future of mankind and earth civilization."

Mei could not deny that Honkai brought not only destruction, but also a gift. However, the value and results born of this gift were an invitation to a blood-vomiting marathon for human civilization.

If you can survive, you will be sublimated; if you cannot survive, you will be destroyed.

\"What's the use of thoughts? Plant a feather in the soil and imagine it growing into a feathered beast.\"

In my own eyes, I cannot and do not want to change this land. I am just the person who works hard to plant feathers.

Thoughts should be free and no one can interfere - the feathered beast that grows in everyone's heart may be different, just like everyone has different expectations for the future of this land.

This is just a very simple truth, but a very cruel fact...

It's so cruel that humans have to do their best to complete it. As long as one mistake is made midway, the certainty of victory will be immediately halved.

Dr. Mei's thoughts far exceeded her human imagination.

She should have successfully completed the trial, but she was collectively held back by the corrupt senior management.

It's ironic that the savior who leads mankind is dragged down by mankind.

It was so ironic that Alicia wondered if she had not been so hesitant and compromised, and the ending would not have been like this.

After all, as the original Herrscher, she is fundamentally different from other Herrschers who have no self.

"'Feathering'... is a beautiful word. "

"In that case, a "Hersher" like me should also be called an "Eclipse", right? "

She doesn't expect the unknown in the starry sky, nor does she expect an infinite future.

For her, all she cares about is the present moment.

She hoped to see her lover die in front of her, but in the end she could only accept everything.

"It's a very appropriate definition indeed."

Mei agreed with Alicia's words, possessing the Herrscher of humanity, which reminded her of Himiko, and the Herrscher of Death who made Kevin blame himself...

"I hope people in the future can use her one day."

"Well, it will definitely happen."

Alicia acknowledged with a smile, even though she was about to die.

The scene was silent for a long time, until Dr. Mei, trembling due to the evening breeze, spoke:

"Alicia, thank you for telling me this... I'm sorry that I can't witness your "blooming" with my own eyes. "

"Don't worry about it. After all, your physical condition is no secret. It would be a bit strange to let an ordinary person with a disease participate in the "Cruelty Operation" of "The Thirteenth Herrscher", right? "

Alicia heard the regret and guilt hidden in Dr. Mei's words.

It's a pity that I couldn't witness the last time of my friend.

What she felt guilty was that she couldn't stop the other party from leaving. Her wisdom, her strategies, and her methods were all useless.

When things require sacrifice, there is no alternative but greater sacrifice.

Chapter 1058: Next time, humans will definitely win

Each of them has his own desires in his heart, which are so eccentric that even the strongest fire cannot burn them all to the bottom.

What about mine? I just want to hide...

But, does the shadow have the right to escape?

A secret conversation behind everyone's back allowed Dr. Mei to open up her heart and Alicia spoke frankly about her own death.

Alicia could hear the helpless regret in Dr. Mei's words, but she didn't care much.

She loves humans, all humans, and she also loves Mei.

So, she forgives her.

"Don't worry about it. After all, your physical condition is no secret. It would be a bit strange to let an ordinary person with a disease participate in the "Cruelty Operation" of "The Thirteenth Herrscher", right? "

""Trust"...the world today needs it so much. People need something they can firmly believe in, and they need a "reasonable" "saying"..."

Alicia faced her own end calmly.

An ending chosen by herself.

The ending that belongs to Alicia.

"So, let the original Herrscher, the "Herrscher of the Origin"...become a beautiful fairy tale. "

Even compared to the Herrscher of the Origin, Alicia still prefers the title "Herrscher of Man".

"It doesn't have to be so heavy."

In Dr. Mei's silence, Alicia calmly described the future she hoped for, a colorful future like a fairy tale.

"I am the heroine of the story. Isn't it natural for me to save the world I love?"

"You see, even now when the end is approaching, there are still people who are looking forward to tomorrow. When civilization hesitates to speak in the darkness, there is still light emerging from it."

"What I like is this kind of human beings and this kind of world. It is they who gave birth to the miracle called "The Herrscher of Man". "We have indeed created stories that have never been seen before, bit by bit."

Stories always have an ending, right?

Alicia stared at her friend with a smile.

"I believe...people in the future will be able to do it, right?"

"certainly."

Only on this point, Dr. Mei affirmed.

This time they failed, but next time, humans will definitely win.

"So, can you promise me, Mei?"

This is the last help Alicia can give to those who come after her.

"Even if Stigmata is a plan that will definitely succeed, don't give up on the fire no matter what, okay?"

"After all, 'the most unimaginable plans have the greatest possibilities,' right?" "

Dr. May and Dr. Mebius put a lot of effort into the Stigma Project and believed that the Stigma Project was the best way to save mankind.

However......

"I promise you."

Mei promised Alicia.

"Whether it's the Stigmata Project that overturns everything and redefines everything, or the Tinder Project that follows the trend and quietly changes destiny..."

"Their true power is common, and they will all follow us to create "unprecedented" paths. "

"And it just so happens that one is the "worst plan" and the other is the "best plan." It's a very interesting fact. "

"Yes." Alicia suddenly laughed: "...just like humans themselves, isn't it?"

Alicia doesn't want to be a Herrscher. Siyuan's reputation must be great, and the daughter of God must have a high status.

But what Alicia wants to become most is a human.

Kevin, who implements the Stigma Plan, is also not a villain, he is just a rational executor.

At first, he was unwilling to implement the Stigma Plan. He hoped that the people of this era could surpass him.

But the disappointments and failures made him understand that there was nothing he could do except the Stigmata Plan.

As Raiden Mei listened to the exchange between Mei and Alicia, silence fell.

The time has come for the coming of the Daughter of God.

-In the beginning, the world was in chaos.

There is no light and no darkness; no beginning and no end.

Just like deleted data, memories are being erased.

All that remains here is pure "nothingness".

So...what is this "residue"?

“…”

A vague light lit up in the distance.

"Today...I will only sing your favorite song."

The golden star, Eden's hoarse and cheerful voice sang.

It was a warm, gentle light that made people feel familiar and nostalgic.

"It was you... who changed your destiny."

A nun who spies on fate, Aponya sincerely laments the change of fate,

That light is good because it separates the chaos, illuminates the darkness, and dispels the original nothingness.

"Don't look so surprised."

A genius magician, Velvet joked with a playful smile.

It seemed like it was calling someone, like it was commemorating someone. It seems to be telling someone's name and praising someone's story.

"Because we always believe in you."

Kevin affirmed the hero who was unwilling to be a hero.

“…”

"…Why?"

At the dinner, Alicia felt puzzled.

At the end of this story, she will stand on the opposite side of mankind and pass away as the "Thirteenth Herrscher", leaving the stage to the people she loves the most - as it should be.

But why...

In the end, the person who was surrounded by everyone and stood in the spotlight... was me?

And why...

These memories that should have passed away with time... still exist here?
