On the occasion of collapse

"Do we know each other? Or do you know someone who looks like me?" Alicia is not stupid, she is very smart and is good at observing the emotional changes of people around her.

"Yes, we know each other." Fu Ling thought she would guess it, but she didn't expect it to be so quick.

"Then, what is our relationship?" Alicia looked at Poria and her tone slowly softened.

She felt that Fu Ling needed her like this.

"This is a long, long story. Are you willing to listen to me?" Fu Ling said slowly as she rubbed her eyes.

"Of course." Alicia didn't say much, she just pulled Fu Ling and sat on the sofa.

"That happened in another world. A girl met a girl..."

'Your name is Fu Ling~ I chose it myself. How about it? Doesn't it sound nice? '

'Well, I've chosen the name, so it's okay for me to decide the birthday, right?Well, October [-]th is the day when little Poria comes to me~'

"The girl watched the girl grow up slowly, and then one day, the girl went to the battlefield and lied to the girl that there was no danger, but the girl discovered that she was seriously injured."

'Alicia!big liar!He said there was no danger! '

'Okay Xiaoling, I was wrong, please forgive me, okay? '

'Then you promise, there will be no next time! '

'Yeah, I promise. '

"Until one day, the girl also grew up to be a girl. The girl also became a woman, and then, the girl who was already a girl set foot on the battlefield."

'Alicia, I'm not a child anymore, I want to be able to help you. '

"The girl grew up, and for the first time, she killed a human with her own hands."

'Alicia, what should I do, what should I do, I don't want to kill her, but, but...'

'Don't be afraid, Xiaoling, I'm here and I will accompany Xiaoling. '

"The girl killed the Herrscher for the first time. She killed the Herrscher head-on."

'Alicia, I... I did it, I... am not a child anymore...'

'Xiaoling!Xiaoling, are you okay? ! '

"Unconsciously, the relationship between the girl and her quietly changed."

'It shouldn't matter if you kiss me secretly. '

'Xiaoling...'

"Then, the girl bid farewell to her comrades and friends again and again."

'Alicia, Lancelot is dead, and so is Uncle Hen. '

'Alicia, Cheng Xi and Qi Mi are also dead. '

'Alicia, Xiaoxiao is dead and Mion is gone, what should we do? '

'Don't be afraid, Xiaoling, I'll be with you. '

"On the girl's birthday, the girl mustered up the courage to confess her love to her and took out the ring she made by herself."

'Alicia, I'm not talking about that kind of liking. '

'Alicia, I love you. '

'Give me some time, tomorrow, Xiaoling, I will definitely give you an answer tomorrow. '

'Also, if you want to kiss me, you don't need to be secretive~'

"But she broke her promise."

'Alicia, no, we have agreed that we will be together forever, and we have agreed not to change for 100 years. '

'Xiaoling, 100 years is too long, I can't wait any longer. '

'Xiaoling, actually I also like Xiaoling very much. '

'Xiaoling, I love you. '

'Ellie...Sia, I, I, love you...'

"At the end of the story, she left the girl with the girl's passionate heart, but she still has all the humanity she has given so far."

"The girl lost her, so she swore that as long as she was still alive, she would protect her with all her life. She exchanged her life for the opportunity, but before that, she would fight for mankind to the end. "

"The girl died, taking her memories, body, and soul with her and falling to the ground. She could no longer see the future she had bought with her life."

"She thought so, but when she opened her eyes again, a strange world appeared in front of her."

Having said this, Poria looked at the silent Alicia.

"That girl is me, and she is the other you, my Alicia."

Extra, a world where girls do not exist ([-]): never see you again

Alicia didn't speak. She was not Fu Ling's Alicia, so she didn't know how passionate her feelings for Fu Ling were.

Even more unable to respond to Fu Ling's equally passionate feelings.

"Sorry, I..." Looking at the girl with gentle eyes in front of her, Alicia didn't know whether she was looking at her or looking at another soul through her.

"You don't need to apologize. I should be the one who needs to apologize." Raising her hand, Fu Ling wanted to touch Alicia's face, but she withdrew her hand in mid-air.

"I didn't consider your feelings. I clearly know that you are not hers."

Looking at this strange girl, Alicia felt distressed.

"If possible, can I ask you a favor?" Fuling looked at Alicia and said sincerely.

"Yeah." Alicia didn't ask what it was. She felt that the girl in front of her would not make any excessive demands.

"Can you please call me Xiaoling?" Looking at Alicia, Fu Ling said slowly, this was even a bit humble and pitiful request.

"..." Listening to these words, Alicia could feel the anticipation in Fu Ling's heart.

"Okay, Xiaoling." Alicia tried her best to make her voice sound gentler, more like the other girl in her memory.

"Well, I'm here, idiot Alicia." Fuling smiled, and she smiled very happily, because after so long, she finally heard this sentence again.

Xiaoling, she has been waiting for this sentence for a long time.

The six months you left, it was like I was dead.

Carrying your determination to protect mankind, I spent the longest six months of my life, and finally died on the road of protecting mankind.

And today, I came here and saw her.Even though I know she is not you, hearing your voice and seeing your face makes me satisfied.

I know I don't belong here and I shouldn't even be here.But let me be selfish.I want to see you, I want to hear your voice, see your face, and hear you call me again, Xiaoling.

"Thank you. I haven't heard anyone call me that for a long time." Fuling smiled, and she smiled very happily.

Not because of anything else, just because of this sentence, Xiaoling.

"You..." Alicia looked at the girl in front of her who was clearly smiling but with tears falling continuously, and didn't know what to say.

"It's okay, it's okay, these are happy tears, it's okay." Fu Ling said slowly, wiping her own tears.

Alicia looked at the girl pretending to be strong, stopped talking, and just gently held the girl in her arms.

"Don't be afraid, Xiaoling, I'm here." Following her example, Alicia patted Fuling's back gently and said softly.

"Well, I'm not afraid, I'm not afraid." Falling into the warm embrace, Fu Ling bit her lower lip to prevent herself from crying.

"It's okay. If you want to cry, just cry. You don't have to hold on all the time." She patted Fu Ling's back rhythmically, and Alicia's gentle voice made Fu Ling feel...

She had the illusion that Alicia was back.

Finally, the string she had been holding on broke, and tears flowed out of her eyes uncontrollably, wetting the clothes on Alicia's chest.

"Alicia, idiot Alicia, why can't you be more selfish? Why?" He gently hit Alicia on the shoulder, and Fu Ling lowered his head, tears constantly falling.

"Why do you have to be a hero? What's so good about being a hero? You saved the world, but, but, have you ever thought that you are also my world?"

Feeling the girl's fists landing on her shoulders one after another, Alicia knew that her status in Fu Ling's heart was far higher than what Fu Ling had described.

"Why are you gentle to everyone, gentle all the time, but you can be so cruel to me."

"Tell me, Alicia, why..." The girl's crying voice reached Alicia's ears. She was not sure how she was feeling now.

Hugging Poria in her arms tightly, Alicia's hair on her forehead covered her eyes.

"I'm sorry, Xiaoling, I'm sorry." She didn't know what she could do. All she could do was to apologize to Fu Ling on her behalf.

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu" Lying on Alicia's shoulder, Fu Ling's tears continued to flow out as if the floodgates had been opened.

She was seriously injured in the fight with Qianjie, but she didn't cry.Cooperating with Mei in the experiment, she didn't cry even if it hurt her.

She was seriously injured and dying, but she didn't cry.Even at the end, when she was hit by the final attack and certain to die, she still didn't cry.

But now she cried because of a few words.

Sometimes, collapse happens in an instant.

It could be because of a word, a thing, or even a small action.

Alicia, who was holding Fu Ling, felt the girl venting her emotions and said nothing.

She couldn't answer Fu Ling's question, she was not her after all.

After a long time, the clothes on Alicia's shoulders had become wet, and Fu Ling slowly changed from crying to sobbing, and then to choking.

After a while, Fu Ling's mood finally stabilized. She sat up from Alicia's arms and raised her hands to wipe away the tears on her face.

"Thank you, I'm much better." Wiping away the tears on his face, his eyes that were a little red from crying were quickly disappearing due to the fusion warrior's powerful physique.

"Sorry, I scared you just now." Fu Ling, who had calmed down, looked at Alicia in front of her and said slowly.

"No." Alicia shook her head and said.

"Really, that's good." Hearing Alicia's answer, Fu Ling also breathed a sigh of relief.

She can't ask Alicia for anything, nor can she think that Alicia should do anything.

Because she understood that this was not her Alicia.

"........."

As Fu Ling's voice fell, silence fell between the two.

"It's time for me to go." Not long after, there was movement from the entrance to the Paradise.

Poria knew that the people in the Paradise were coming out.

According to Kevin, he was a Herrscher fighting for humanity.

It's great, Alicia's wish has come true.

"Now?" Alicia asked, looking at the girl standing in front of her.

"Well, I'm not the successor, so there's no need to stay here." Fuling tilted her head to prevent herself from looking at Alicia's face.

She was afraid, and after one more look, she couldn't bear to leave.

"That's it..." Alicia heard this and knew what Fu Ling was worried about.

"Then, goodbye." These words were spoken by her as herself, not as Poria's Alicia.

"Well, goodbye." Fu Ling didn't say much, she just turned around silently and walked in the direction she came from.

Alicia, you know what.

Goodbye actually has another meaning.

That is, never see you again.

Extra, a world where girls should not exist (End): Even solid ice will cry

"Huh? Alicia, didn't you say that someone is coming? No, they haven't come yet, right?" After walking out of the paradise, Mei Yi looked at Alicia who was standing there in a daze, and couldn't help but say aloud.

"Ah, it's nothing, she just left." After adjusting her facial expression, Alicia looked at Mei, with her usual smile on her face again.

But more than that, Mei Yi always felt that this smile was a little different from her usual one, but she couldn't tell what was different.

"Okay, forget it if you leave." Yayi didn't say anything more, just shook her head lightly.
