The Fire Chaser of the Collapsing World

That's right, this is the familiar "victory" dance, and people are celebrating the end of the fifth Honkai.

Just like the previous times, on this night, no one will remember the more than [-] ordinary people who were killed or injured in Attica, no one will remember that the Fifth Herrscher herself is just a poor girl, no one will remember Remember how much you paid for such a trivial victory.

No, maybe everyone didn't forget, but just selectively ignored it.

After all, the truth is so desperate, so desperate that human beings need to use a lot of alcohol, high-calorie food, and in-depth communication with the opposite sex to reverse their spiritual decline.

But there are also differences, for example—this is obviously the victory dance of the flame-chasing moths, but there are a few figures that shouldn't be here, but no one will chase them away.

"I said, Kevin...what kind of party are you guys having, why bother calling me up..."

Mikael's palm exuded heat, and after the brown soda that had condensed into ice cubes in the cup slowly melted away, he took a sip. His brows were rarely relieved, and he carefully felt the small bubbles one after another. The feeling of gently popping in the mouth-Kevin brand refrigerator, very easy to use.

"What, you obviously enjoy yourself."

Kevin spread his hands. He had just witnessed Mikael's relaxed expression, so he naturally didn't take his complaints seriously.

"I'm sorry." Mikael pointed to the cup, "I don't enjoy this kind of meaningless dance, but I simply miss the master of Kvass, the flame moth."

"..."

"However, why does May let you communicate with me alone every time?"

Mikael's tone sounded a little dissatisfied.

Kevin chuckled, and following his eyes, he could see a touch of bright pink moving through the noisy crowd. Her left hand was holding Himiko, who was still recovering from her injury, and her right hand was holding the girl with a face full of reluctance. Mebius, Mebius led Xier again, and behind them was a figure whose mouth would rise unconsciously whenever Kevin caught a glimpse of it from a distance.

"Hey, don't make it sound like I want to be with you, you think I don't want to be with Mei?"

He complained a few words verbally, his tone lost his composure unknowingly, and he returned to the boy he used to be.

"Is Su okay with you?"

"That's right. He opened a small clinic on Twilight Street, and he treated those people almost for free."

"Good……"

There is no doubt that Kevin had a gratified smile on his face, but his tone was inexplicably sad and lonely, "I really envy Su, he has indeed realized his original dream...

"Mikael, can you answer one more question for me—the Fifth Herrscher..."

"Kevin, the possibility you wanted never existed from the beginning."

Kevin's face was brilliant for a moment, he didn't expect Mikael's answer to be so straightforward, and it seemed to have some meaning.

It's just that at his level, he still can't know the real meaning behind Mikael's words.All he could do was to record Mikael's words, demeanor, and tone, and hand them over to Mei to speculate and analyze.

"Speaking of which, Mei deleted all the footage of my No.1 battlefield at that time, and didn't allow me to show the fact that human emotions were revealed to anyone..."

Although Kevin always obeys May's orders unconditionally, this does not eliminate his confusion and confusion.It's fine if it's in front of other people, but in front of Mikael, he couldn't help but complain after all.

"This is normal. It would be a little troublesome if ordinary soldiers knew about it. After all, they are not 'killing' soldiers in the traditional sense. It is not easy to change their mentality. Instead of doing this, it is better not to tell them. Take a look at the situation of the next lawyer."

"is that so……"

"Cough cough!"

Seeing that the dance party had reached its climax, Mikael coughed twice and interrupted the original topic:

"So, the time for small talk is over, let's talk about business."

Both Mikael and Kevin put on serious looks.

But only a few seconds later, the two smiled knowingly.

It was a tacit understanding between Mikael and May. Without any communication, both parties were ready to lead the matter to the same result.

Everything is just as May said in response to [seele]: "I will take all the responsibilities."

The two rivers started from different paths, have experienced so many ups and downs, and gone through so many detours, but the opportunity to merge is close at hand.

…………

"Hey! Are you the only surviving boy?"

Hearing an unfamiliar voice, Cosmo slowly raised his head.

【Well, a strange voice, a strange person. 】

[Also, how could there be someone familiar here? 】

So he just glanced at Carol lightly, then continued to lower his head, playing with a broken watch.

It is said to be a watch, but in fact there is only one incomplete dial left.

The silver metal frame is a little distorted, and there are still black ash traces, which are traces of high-temperature baking.

Cosmo flicked the hands of the watch lightly. This is not a precious watch at all. The watch mirror has already been broken by repeated high temperature and low temperature, and the gear mechanism inside is also the same.

"Hey! What's the matter with you! I'm talking to you!"

Cosmo didn't even lift his head this time.

【Also, how can an unrelated person experience this pain? 】

He silently stroked the only thing left by Anna.

【…】

"Destobia, let's go, this guy has no meaning at all!"

Carol was about to leave angrily, but the blond-haired girl didn't follow her as she expected.

She returned an apologetic smile to Carol, and then gently squatted in front of Cosmo.

"I'm so sorry to disturb you... Carol, she didn't mean it. After all, she was also a fire moth who joined as a survivor. I heard... I just heard... Maybe she is on you , saw the shadow of one of her former friends?"

"..."

Cosmo's breathing became more and more rapid.

The girl's soft tone slid across his cheeks like silk, and finally flowed into his brain like flowing water, and he could even feel a refreshing and sweet aftertaste.

This kind of tone and this kind of feeling are not unfamiliar to the young man, that's why he is so excited.

He finally held his head high, but was again disappointed.

Even though the surrounding lights were dim and the specific facial features could not be seen clearly, he could still distinguish the difference between the girl in front of him and Anna.

They are not the same person.

Once again hope was dashed.

[No, I should have accepted this fact long ago. 】

He just had a little fantasy. After all, Anna's body was not found in the end, only such a broken dial was found.

For those who do not want to believe in death, the absence of a corpse means infinite possibilities.

But in fact, Cosmo is very sober, because the so-called sadness does not seem to be as strong as expected——

【Anna is already dead, at the hands of these people. 】

【However... but they are upholding justice, they are protecting human beings...】

"Is this... something left to you by a very important person?"

Destobia sat next to Cosmo by the wall.

"Um……"

【I... I should have made up my mind not to make a sound. 】

[It's over, do you want to continue talking? 】

【She won't pester me, will she? 】

"Well... yes. She... my birthday is coming soon, she said she would prepare a birthday present for me, and in the end only this was left."

"she?"

"Uh... yes, you can understand it as sister."

【I...why did I talk to her so much? 】

【No, I will never answer the next question! 】

"That's it... Although I really want to say something like mourning to you, I also know that it is just an excuse to deceive children. So, on your birthday, shall I give you a gift? By the way, your birthday is What day will it be?"

"……I……"

Cosmo, who made up his mind not to speak, finally spoke.

So Airi, who had been silently watching the depressed boy, couldn't help but smile slightly.

"Oops—seems like someone has unknowingly done work that should have been mine?"

"That's great! This way I can go back to catch up on sleep earlier! Going to bed late hurts my skin!"

"However, this boy will have to be snatched away by Mei and the others. It's a bit uncomfortable to think about it..."

"But that's all right, anyway—soon to be a... oops! I can't spoil it!"

Chapter 21 Framed and blamed

"The combat power of the fusion fighter...it seems a bit beyond imagination..."

In the dark and boundless room, thirteen tombstones stood up, but Mei's figure was missing in the middle.

[.06]'s voice was quickly echoed.

"That's right, the entire battle lasted less than 10 minutes. Judging from the battlefield video, except for a slight disadvantage in the initial trial stage, the Fifth Herrscher was directly terminated by Kevin's blow."

"There is also the magnitude of the Houkai reaction. The fifth Herrscher's Houkai reaction exceeds five thousand watts. During the battle, the first Herrscher only used the imaginary barrier, and his reaction is negligible. During the whole process, the instrument still maintained the upper limit of 9999hw, which shows that Kevin's Houkai energy reaction level has reached at least about 5000hw..."

"It's so scary."

【.01】Secretary General Keir summed up the fusion fighter's combat effectiveness in a short sentence.

"Hey! Why are you all so dignified? This is a great thing hahaha, you see, this time human beings almost eliminated the Fifth Herrscher with little help from the power of the First Herrscher. It is not worth celebrating some time?"

"...Lezren, don't go too far!"

"Ah——Is there something wrong with what I said? Is there a problem? There shouldn't be a problem, right? Well, it's true, so why do you think there's a problem? Oh, it can't be... Do you have a problem here?"

Lezren stretched out his index finger and nodded his head.

"Okay, Lezren, please don't say a few words."

Seeing that the situation was once again on the verge of getting out of control, Keir quickly made up the mud.

Vasago sat on the sidelines again. He didn't say a word from beginning to end, not because he had nothing to say, but because he simply didn't want to communicate with these people, that's all.

He has longed for these so-called high-level people countless times, no, not yearning, to be precise, it should be fear-he thinks these people should be wiser than him, and can play him in the palm of their hands, so he is also willing driven by it.

Of course, these people are not unintelligent. Vasago thinks that he is the second-to-last stupid among the thirteen people, and the last-to-last position is naturally none other than [.06] Minister Tarot, but both of them are vulgar Wu Fu, not worth mentioning.

As for the others... huh...

That's right, that's why he despises these people - they only have wisdom, but no courage; they only have calculations, but no dedication.

In the face of Honkai, selfishness and cowardice are the two biggest crimes, and Vasago also watched these smart people he "thought" do one stupid thing after another because of these two crimes.

He had a premonition somewhere that the people here would be replaced by "another group of people" sooner or later.

Therefore, he didn't bother to open his mouth—don't get me wrong, he just didn't want to be accused of unnecessary crimes when the reckoning came.

It wasn't until then that he realized that he had agreed to Mikael's deal after the third Honkai ended, and he had been keeping in touch with him in silence. This time, he took the initiative to send Himiko out to express his goodwill, and he never hindered him. May’s plan, but to continue to support Kevin’s promotion and May’s resource allocation... This series of unintentional operations now seems to be a stroke of magic, because it gave him the opportunity to move towards the second "choice".

Lezren talks here all the time, probably because of this consideration, right?

"Lezren, Vasago, the Flame Chasing Moth is in your hands, and now there is a subordinate who is as powerful as the Herrscher. Don't you have any plans?"

"Precautions? Precautions for what? My subordinates have such great strength, I am obviously too happy, and I want to deal with him in reverse?"

"What are you implying, Lezren!"

"Ah? Did I say something? Minister Tarot, and you, you, you, you, you... Please find out who approved Mei's operation application, was it me?"

"You! Mei's operation was performed by herself against the regulations, and has nothing to do with us!"

"Ugh……"

A series of laments sounded, and some people's IQ could no longer even look down on their teammates.
