Chapter 170 She was born a Herrscher
Chapter 170 She was born a Herrscher
"Mei... I haven't seen Mei get frustrated in a long time."
"Respond to me, Alicia!"
"Mei: I can't do anything!"
"I have a rough idea of where Eden is..."
Mei looked at the memory that was getting farther and farther away, and she finally murmured, "Aili... Shia."
At this moment, an unexpected voice appeared in everyone's ears.
"Hi, lovely human, so you are here?"
Mei: “……?”
Miraculously, the vision that had been blurred by the pain began to clear.
Fairy Airi appeared in front of Mei, and seemed to be complaining, "Really? You said you would take me with you when playing hide-and-seek! But you all ran away, and we had to look for you for a long time!"
"us……?"
"That's right! And there's my helper, look, she's right here—"
Following the fairy Ellie's gaze, a figure was now sitting in the endless empty environment.
"Sorry for the wait, Miss Mei."
A gentle call, like a drop of rain, fell into the white world.
Then, the glorious ocean rolled up—
Mei's voice trembled slightly, "...Eden?"
The appearance of Eden undoubtedly gave Mei, who was on the verge of despair, a shot in the arm.
"Eden! My good Eden!"
"No, Eden's presence here won't mean..."
"Ahhh, even though I've already guessed it, please don't tell me!"
"Wuwuwuwu, Ellie, Eden, wuwuwuwu..."
Eden: "You have done your best by coming here. Next...it is up to us to fulfill our mission."
"The lack of one memory will naturally be filled with another memory."
"You have completed the ninety-nine steps towards Ellie, and this last step will be taken by Fairy Ellie and me."
Mei: "But, as a memory, if you use your own memories to complete the existence of Alicia, you will..."
Eden: "I will be a part of her forever."
"Isn't this a very... romantic thing?"
Seeing this, the barrage of comments was broken.
"No, why don't you even let my little Ai Li go! Gu Li, don't sleep too deeply tonight!"
"Can't Fairy Ellie stay too?"
"I'm really impressed! There's not a single person left in the paradise. What the hell is this!"
"There's not a single person, not a single one. I'm already numb from the sword, I can't even imagine what Mei has experienced firsthand!"
“Woooooooooooooo, so sweet!”
"Ka-ka-ka, do you buy your mirrors in wholesale?"
"Hahahahahahaha, they're all broken into pieces, so sweet! Not a single one is left! Hahahaha!"
In Eden's last moments, Eden gave the crystal flower in his hand to Mei.
At this point, all four crystal flowers are gathered.
Mei, however, asked Eden one last question.
"When the Fire Moths were torn apart and her own survival was in doubt, in order to unite the remaining people, Alicia volunteered to become the 13th Herrscher and stood on the opposite side of humanity..."
"In the end, she sacrificed herself to put the world back on track..."
"This is the history I have been able to deduce from the Paradise Archives and the few words of the heroes...but..."
"But……"
"..."
“…Is this really the case?”
"Regardless of how she took the initiative to become a Herrscher, and how she used a sacrifice to make everyone wake up, if this is the true ending of Alicia..."
"Then why did the story of the Thirteenth Herrscher... become an erased history?"
Eden: "Ms. Mei...you are really smart."
"You have already discovered that there are many unreasonable things in this statement..."
"Because it is just a statement, to explain to others and future generations why she left."
When Mei heard this, she recalled everything Alicia had said to her.
And the answer she had been looking for had already been given.
It's in her heart.
Alicia: "That's right, maybe... I really told a big lie, the only lie in my life."
"After all... I am afraid too."
"Hmm... I wonder how I'll perform? And what will everyone think of me?... Judging from their reactions, the result should be good, right?"
"Otherwise, there would be no Alicia in the paradise of the afterlife..."
"...Haha, thank you, Mei."
"I am so lucky to meet you in this way. You have brought me... a gift that I have always longed for but never dared to ask for."
Those few words were now connected into a line, leading everything to the only answer.
Alicia has never been the so-called Thirteenth Herrscher.
Thirteen is just a false number.
And the lie that Alicia told, a huge lie, was this.
Eden: "Ms. Mei, I'm so glad... In the end, you found the answer yourself."
"This is what you have been seeking all along, the final secret buried by the paradise of the past."
"The second of the Fire Chasing Heroes, Alicia of the True Self, this girl who deeply loves everyone..."
"She was born a Herrscher."
Seeing this, everyone's scalp tingled.
It turns out that Alicia is not the 13th Herrscher.
She was born to be a herald.
This piece of news was like a bomb that dropped into the silent lake, causing huge waves and shaking the entire lake.
The audience was going crazy, the Fire Moth was going crazy, and everyone watching the show, except Gu Li, was also going crazy.
"??????????!!!!!"
"All the Herrschers are recorded, except for Alicia. Is this the reason?!"
"How heavy is this truth for the previous civilization..."
"So what Alicia is afraid of is that her sacrifice won't bring about any good changes?"
"Ellie never lies to anyone because she is sincere to everyone."
"The child was stabbed and made stupid! He was stupid!"
"The Thirteenth Herrscher has always been a cover, always been! She has always loved someone!"
"I broke nm's defense!"
Everyone present, except Alicia and Gu Li, stood up and looked at Alicia, who was sitting in the front row, with doubtful eyes.
I thought she could become a Herrscher on her own initiative in some way.
But really, none of them had expected that she was a Herrscher from the very beginning.
So what were the things they had been through together over the years?
Can a lawyer do this?
Or is it just Alicia who is like this?
At this moment, their hearts were filled with unprecedented confusion.
