Creating Happiness with Heart in Honkai

Like a mermaid in the sea, or a magical girl wielding miracles.

When Elysia changed into a new outfit with a spring peach blossom color, she found that her battle effects had increased!

Can this be tolerated? Can this not be used?

So, at the end of the level, Elysia asked Kalpas to watch from the side and let her try out this new outfit herself.

And what about Bronya?

When Bronya was wiping out a large group of Honkai beasts and zombies, not to mention how inflated her heart was, she felt that the Project Bunny given to her by Bronie, even when encountering the MANTISes, still had the power to fight!

Then Bronie was stunned.

With flexible combat stances, flashy effects, and constantly switching combat styles, Bronie was momentarily thrown into a state of confusion, unable to even attempt to counterattack.

It was more like playing around than fighting.

Bronie's mindset underwent some changes.

"It's really beautiful..."

"Thank you for the praise~ Although Bronya can always maintain her composure in battle and analyze the opponent's fighting style, she still lacks a lot of experience in fighting against people~"

Once she made a fake move, Bronya would fall right into the trap, which Elysia found somewhat strange.

"That's because Bronya's previous opponents were still within the range of normal people, but Sister Elysia's superhuman level is something Bronya has never seen before... And... the Herrscher of Origin?"

Bronya never expected that Elysia would be a Herrscher of the ancient civilization!

Didn't they say that the Herrschers of the ancient civilization destroyed the ancient civilization?

Why is Elysia, as a Herrscher of the ancient civilization, still able to spend nearly fifty thousand years laughing and joking with these MANTISes of the ancient civilization?

Although Bronya had many doubts in her mind, Elysia asked Bronya to make friends with the other Flamechasers and piece together the truth of the ancient civilization from their mouth.

It was a small puzzle game, a traditional program of the Elysian Realm.

"Isn't it amazing? The Herrscher of Origin, although no one knows the specific powers, I prefer to believe that Elysia is a miracle of the universe, capable of displaying all the beauty of the world just by existing there. Come, say it with me: Sister Ellie~"

ᗜ ‸ ᗜ

Well, Bronya's half-step backward movement was probably serious.

But then Bronya saw a masked man next to Bronie.

"Excuse me, who is this?"

"Kalpas. He's a very gentle MANTIS who posssess the Signet of Decimation, capable of giving people tremendous courage."

"Hehe, gentle? In our next spar, I will slowly tear apart your boring illusions, then tear off all your limbs and feed them to the Honkai beasts!

...Also, please don't make games like Getting Over It again next time."

"You see, he even knows how to say please!"

Ignoring the aura emanating from Kalpas completely, Bronie pointed to Kalpas beside her, completely ignoring Kalpas's aura.

Bronya was already frightened.

"It seems that Kalpas is in a good mood today. Bronie, what did you give Kalpas?"

"I didn't give him anything. I just thought of making a set of Galahad assembly models. I think Kalpas might be interested."

"Is that so?"

As soon as Elysia heard it was a robot model, she immediately understood what Bronie was thinking.

Men will be boys until they die, and all interests surpass the sky!

Elysia understood.

"You care too much!"

Hearing Kalpas's response like this, Elysia immediately knew that Bronie had hit Kalpas's sweet spot.

She didn't expect, she really didn't expect, Kalpas actually likes this kind of gift. Can she also make a similar gift in the future and give it away?

"Let's end today's testing session here. Bronya's body is quite excellent in terms of adapting to the signets, but there may be some deficiencies in combat awareness."

"Bronya thinks that the combat awareness Bronya lacks is actually against opponents with special abilities and intelligence. If they were ordinary people, Honkai beasts, or zombies, Bronya wouldn't lose!"

"Did you hear that, Elysia? Next, prepare some Judgment-Class Honkai beasts or Vipralopa-Class Honkai beasts. If possible, bring out a Planet-Class Honkai beast."

"Planet-level Honkai beasts only exist in theory. As for whether they really exist, it's hard to say. The Elysian Realm currently doesn't have the resources or capabilities to reproduce or even create such monsters. Or is it that Bronie, you have very high confidence in the Project Bunny you created yourself?"

Vill-V hurriedly stopped Bronie's flight of fancy, but this time she didn't appear in the form of magic.

"Are you... The Conductor?"

"Wow, you've become familiar with everyone so quickly?"

The Conductor was relatively serious. She was the closest to the original personality of Vill-V and also had control over the other personalities. If there was a personality within Vill-V's body that wanted to betray them, The Conductor would likely be the first target.

"Because all of you are in my heart."

"Elysia, did you teach her how to speak nicely?"

Although The Conductor didn't buy into this, she was still somewhat impressed.

It had a taste of Elysia in it.

"Doesn't it just make us cute and sweet for Bronie?"

Elysia bounced around, hugged Bronya as if showing off a new doll she had just bought, and had some intimate contact with Bronie while showing off her new outfit.

"Elysia, stop..."

"Bronie, bad!"

Elysia quickly separated from Bronya, and seeing Bronie's mischievous smile, Elysia couldn't help but pinch Bronya's face.

"Alright, let me introduce everyone. This is Bronie's adopted child, Bronya Zaychik. She's here to train a bit today in the Elysian Realm. The first phase of the plan to combat the Honkai is about to begin, and for the next period of time, we might not have as much leisure as before!"

When Bronie brought Bronya to the Elysian Realm, it meant that the plan to combat the Honkai had begun in earnest.

From the birth of the Third Herrscher, the next step was to engage in a battle with the entire civilization, relying solely on tacit understanding.

The Will of Honkai was the artificial intelligence No.17 projected by Mobius in the previous era, now known as Prometheus No.17.

To verify this specifically, it would require verification when the Third Eruption and the Third Herrscher arrived.

If it could be discovered that the so-called consciousness of the Herrscher could be communicated with through a special electromagnetic field, it would be enough to explain everything.

At least according to the intelligence Bronie provided, there weren't many mistakes, but it still needed verification.

As the step-by-step verification ended and all the plans proceeded as originally planned, the moment the Eleventh Herrscher, the Herrscher of Binding, arrived, it would also be the moment of the Flamechaser's resurrection!

But the beginning of everything was difficult.

When the Third Honkai was indeed about to erupt, Elysia felt a little nervous.

"It's a pity for Sin~"

"Huh? What do you mean?"

Bronie didn't understand what Bronya meant.

"Such an important plan, Sister Sin knows nothing about it. Isn't that interesting?" Faced with Bronya's mischief, Bronie just patted Bronya's head a few times.

"Naughty, not telling her about these plans is to protect her. To keep her away from the center of the plan, so she won't be manipulated by Otto. Archbishop Otto is the kind of guy who sacrifices others' lives without any psychological pressure. If he wants to control or threaten me, you are my biggest weakness in my heart."

"And me?"

Elysia also came over.

"You too. Everyone in the Elysian Realm is the same. Maybe Otto will prepare an underground nuclear bomb, destroying everything underground to threaten me. That's why I haven't told Otto the exact location of the Elysian Realm."

Originally, Otto sent Fu Hua over, hoping to get some words out of her, out of old affection.

But unfortunately, although Fu Hua was honest, she wasn't stupid.

She knew which side was more important.

Even if Otto threatened with Shenzhou, the final outcome would only be the plan getting out of control, and Otto would never have a chance to cooperate with the Flamechasers again.

"I see, so be careful of Otto, right?"

"Bronya, the world is not black and white. The Valkyries of Schicksal are indeed at the forefront of fighting the Honkai, and the entire organization of Schicksal is also mostly correct. What you need to be careful of is Otto himself and his direct subordinates, as they are most likely to carry out orders directly from Otto, which may do things that could harm you."

Bronie was giving a precautionary warning. Although Bronya inherited some of Bronie's hacking techniques, it wasn't enough against Schicksal.

Schicksal couldn't deal with Bronie because Bronie herself had special abilities.

But Bronya was different.

Before becoming a Herrscher, Bronya was relatively weak.

The existence of Project Bunny was like a ticket to enter the plot.

"Bronya understands."

"Make sure to protect yourself."

Elysia also reminded.

Apparently she also know Bronie's plan. Bronya was basically kept in the dark about many things, but she trusted Bronie.

The time left for Bronya was about two months.

During this time, Bronie let go of the Hackerspace and the idea of making games, devoting herself entirely to training Bronya and supplementing her self-knowledge.

Under the guidance of various Flamechaseres, Bronya's judgment on the battlefield greatly improved, and even the tacit understanding with the Project Bunny reached a level of unity between man and machine.

If facing a Herrscher, Bronya was almost invincible, especially now that the Herrschers' powers were basically set, and their intelligence was unparalleled!

Bronya thought she could do anything.

In the past two months, not many signets were sent to Bronya, just a few. One Decimation, one Ego, one Visiccitude, one Bodhi, and then Gold and Deliverance.

There weren't many signets that matched Bronya.

Although Bronie said that the Signet of the Stars had the greatest power, and the Spiral Signet had more functionalities, unfortunately, Bronya didn't have the chance to come into contact with any of them.

After all, powerful abilities often came with more severe side effects.

The Discipline, for example, once drove Fu Hya mad and countless soldiers as well. So Aponia almost refused to give anyone the Signet of Discipline.

As they neared their departure from the Elysian Realm, Bronie sat in the lounge, accompanying Eden.

Eden sang the ballads of the Scarborough imprintet, while Elysia watched quietly beside them.

Bronya underwent her final trial. She challenged various special enemies, such as the Husk Nihilius, Mysticism, Tonatiuh, or Belialus.

After challenging these giant enemies, she sparred with the Flamechasers.

Mobius claimed to be a scientist with little combat power, but Bronya found herself most easily defeated by her.

Instead, Kiana, Elysia, Aponia, and Kevin were relatively gentle, and basically let Bronya win.

But each victory for Bronya was very difficult, as if everyone was pushing herself to the limits just to avoid disappointing herself. Although everything was seamless on the surface.

After a day of exhaustion and returning to the lounge, Bronya was stunned to see such a peaceful scene.

"Bronie, do you have any plans to make a new game recently?"

"Huh?"

The music stopped, and Bronie never expected that after Bronya came out, she would talk about this!

"Yeah yeah! Bronie hasn't made a game for a long time! Kiana really likes your Cyberpunk 2077, and after reaching max level, she's been causing chaos in the game every day."

Elysia appeared to have lost her patience. She expected to see Bronie's creative process in the Elysian Realm, but didn't expect Bronie to either play with everyone or study in the Elysian Realm.

Elysia felt too embarrassed to disturb Bronie.

"About the game... let's wait until after we return for the New Year. The Cyberpunk online mode from the Haxxor Bunny Studio is almost ready. Let's think about making a new game after that."

Bronie thought that the busy trial life had made Bronya forget about games, but when Bronya brought it up, both Eden and Elysia seemed to have been holding back for a long time and finally asked.

"The plan to fight the Honkai is not something you have to accomplish alone, so don't feel too much pressure. It's not enough to make you completely give up making games. Is it that Night City makes you miss your hometown too much and needs our comfort?"

During this period, Eden didn't think Bronie had anything to be unhappy about, so Eden judged that Bronie wasn't the type to dwell on past things.

So if it wasn't dwelling on the past, it was likely that the plan was about to become a reality, and pressure was starting to build.

Although Eden wasn't sure where this great pressure was coming from.

And only Bronie herself knew where this pressure came from. Changing Schicksal meant accepting the consequences of changing Schicksal.

Preventing tragedy might also hinder the growth of the protagonists.

The so-called growth was not about growing in power, but psychologically.

Both Kiana and Bronya had obtained great power, but psychologically, it might not be optimistic.

To be honest, Bronie didn't know what to do, but... she had to try, right?

In the end, it turned into some nagging, some preaching, and some advice.

Maybe... she could also convey it in her own way?

Just like—

"Okay, I know what kind of game I should make now. Cyberpunk 2077 emits too much negative energy. This time, I should make something positive and uplifting... Hmm... let's call it Persona!"
