Chapter 674

"Floating Prominence" Shigure Kira.

A girl who originally wanted to participate in the idol internship test, but accidentally passed the Schicksal Valkyrie test, and then jumped to become an A-rank Valkyrie of Schicksal in just a few years.

She was the kind of person who could rely on strength to eat, but insisted on relying on talent. Because even after becoming an A-rank Valkyrie who fought for all that is beautiful and earned over a hundred thousand a month, Shigure Kira didn't give up on becoming an idol.

Although the young lady's idol path had the fatal problem of being "tone-deaf," these were all trivial matters. Shigure Kira firmly believed that as long as she persisted in training, she could overcome it.

And now, besides the S-rank Valkyrie she respected and worshipped the most, Cecilia Schariac, Kira had also found a great mentor she respected and admired.

That was the sixth seat of the fifteen Flame-Chasers of the previous civilization, the one with the name of [Gold], Eden.

Shigure Kira: "Eden-sensei is even more amazing! This is what kind of heavenly voice! Truly worthy of being an art singer who can represent an era! If I could have one percent, no, one thousandth of yours, it would be great!"

After listening to the golden singer finish a song, Shigure Kira instantly became Eden's super fan, and her status in her heart was almost at the same level as Cecilia.

After all, this golden Flame-Chaser was her admiration.

It was the dream itself that she could not reach!

Coupled with Eden's goddess-like beauty, elegance, nobility, and even the strength that exceeded an S-rank Valkyrie, as well as her gentleness in being willing to help her change her "tone-deaf" problem.

Shigure Kira almost knelt down to Eden.

Fortunately, she was a reserved girl who cared about her face. If this were a certain blonde traveler, they would have definitely made a declaration of "I am xxxx's dog" by now.

And at this very moment...

"La la la la~ la la la la~ la la la~"

A singing voice that was like a sonic weapon echoed through the Golden Theater.

Eden's eyes rolled up, and she only felt that her limbs were weak and her ears were about to break. She looked at the ice-blue-haired girl who was singing happily on the stage in fear.

17 Even the Herrscher of Finality and planetary-class Honkai beasts had never made Eden feel so fearful.

"Eden-sensei, what do you think of my singing?"

(Girl, speak carefully, don't open your mouth!)

Eden resisted the urge to shout out her inner voice.

"Cough, cough, uh, how should I put it? It's an improvement over the last one... probably. I believe that Kira, sooner or later, you can become an excellent... qualified idol."

"Really? Thank you, Eden-sensei!"

"N-no, you're welcome. By the way, I think there is more than one way out in life. Being a Valkyrie is also a good choice. And in the previous civilization, I even often sang for the warriors on the battlefield. I believe you can do it too."

"Worthy of being Eden-sensei! I will continue to work hard! Whether it's a Valkyrie or an idol, I won't give up."

"Uh, alright..."

Shigure Kira's eyes shone. After hearing Eden say this, she only felt that she had an infinitely bright future.

Eden sweated coldly in embarrassment.

Her singing on the battlefield could increase the morale buff. According to Bai Ge's statistics, Eden's war song could make the warriors of the Moth of the Flame hot-blooded and increase their combat power by two hundred percent.

Shigure Kira was also suitable for singing on the battlefield.

Because her singing voice, which was enough to make the great Herrscher of Sentience go crazy and break her defense, could probably really sing the enemy to death.

If it were someone else, Eden would have long ago bluntly advised, girl, you'd better change your way out. But who told Shigure Kira to be a girl introduced by Bai Mou.

Plus...

Her burning admiration for herself/her ideal.

Made Eden really embarrassed to open her mouth to strike.

So she kept accompanying Shigure Kira in training. Although the effect was minimal, she still tried to use various ways to treat her life-threatening "tone-deaf" problem.

...Half an hour later...

"Kira... rest for a while..."

"No need, Eden-sensei, I can do another song!"

"I-is that so..."

Eden smiled bitterly and used Honkai energy to strengthen her eardrums, thinking, you don't need to rest, but I need to rest!

[Shigure Kira's Personal Concert] was no joke. I'm afraid no one in this world could listen to the whole thing standing up.

"But I'm truly grateful to Eden-sensei. I never dreamed that one day I could sing on such a gorgeous stage, as if I really became a world-class idol."

Shigure Kira looked at the surroundings with admiration.

The magnificent theater built of gold, the red petals falling at all times, and the holy chants echoing endlessly—except for the audience/victim being only one person, it was thousands of times more gorgeous than the stage she had imagined in her brain.

"I'm happy to hear you say that. This was a stage given to me by Bai. He hopes that one day I can debut on this stage again and continue to shine in this era."

Eden showed a sweet expression, her jade hands lightly touching the piano that came with the Golden Theater, and said very cherishably.

"Goo woo, that guy again..."

Shigure Kira instantly showed a complex expression, her cute mouth pouting, and she suddenly lost interest.

"Hey~ it seems Kira really hates Bai."

"Because that person not only stole Lady Cecilia, but even you, Eden-sensei... in short, I hate him the most."

Rarely meeting two people she admired,

Shigure Kira was like a loser sister who watched her two dear sisters being taken by the same scumbag, but couldn't do anything about it.

Eden laughed and cried, touching Shigure Kira's head.

"But Bai is a very good person, ah no, in my heart, there is no one better than him in this world."

"...Lady Cecilia said the same thing."

"But besides that, Bai is also a very pitiful person."

"Eh?"

Shigure Kira was stunned, looking at Eden in disbelief.

"You must be joking. That guy is so powerful, his strength is so strong, his singing is so good, and there are so many people like you who like him. How is he pitiful?"

"Kira, that's because Bai always only shows his calm side, covering up his fragile appearance. Recall what he was like in your memory."

"Uh, he is always smiling..."

"Yes, then have you ever seen Bai angry? Have you ever seen him sad? Have you ever seen him desperate? And pain, crying, crazy?"

"............"

Shigure Kira shook her head blankly. Not to mention seeing it, she found that she couldn't even imagine it.

(How is it possible? That person would be desperate? Would be sad? Would cry? He actually has that side? I don't believe it!)

"Eden-sensei, have you seen it?"

"Yes, I have seen it. In fact, I have forgotten those sides of Bai several times, but finally remembered them. Many people have been deceived by Bai's appearance. Although he possesses incomparable power, Bai's heart is actually very fragile."

Eden said, sighing, showing a look of heartache.

"How is this possible!!"

Shigure Kira shouted instinctively.

It had been a few days since she visited the Elysian Realm. Thanks to the active promotion of a certain pink elf lady, the Snow Wolf Squad also learned a lot about Bai Ge.

The key was that Elysia gave them each a copy of "The White-Haired Youth's Adventure in the Previous Civilization."

She wrote what Bai Ge did in the previous civilization into a novel. By the way, the signature was 'a girl as gorgeous as flying flowers.'

Fairy Fairy Fairy Eli: "I want more people to understand Bai Bai!"

Shigure Kira, in order to find Bai Ge's weakness, stayed up all night to finish reading that book, and then... she regretted it.

After being unable to control her eyes and reading the whole book word for word, the young lady regretted opening this book very much.

Because it was a heroic tale that exceeded imagination, a story that was too tragic, tortuous, heavy, and yet dazzlingly beautiful.

Since finishing it, Shigure Kira no longer lost her temper at Bai Ge, and there was a bit more respect in her eyes.

However, now Eden said that the white-haired youth's heart was fragile, and Shigure Kira felt it was difficult to agree.

A man who saved the world more than a dozen times, and even traveled through time for the girl he loved.

How could he be a person with a fragile heart?

"Yes, most people who know his story would think so. But... Bai's essence is not like that."

Eden shook her head and said.

Because that white-haired youth was too good at disguising, even among the Flame-Chasers, only a very small part of people saw through this.

And Eden, who could resonate with Bai Mou's soul through music, was one of them.

Just for this, this golden singer was incomparably glad that she chose the path of music, because music gave her the ability to understand Bai Ge more intuitively than anyone else.

"Just like what was written in the book Elysia wrote, Bai is always fighting various enemies. In the days when he wasn't as strong as he is now, he also became scarred because of facing strong enemies."

"Fighting has become a common occurrence for him, but even death couldn't make him stop, let alone being injured. Many people call Bai's posture of being covered in wounds but still standing up to fight [mentally strong]."

"But this is a huge mistake."

Eden said decisively. At this moment, the holy chant of the Golden Theater stopped, and the petals stopped falling, as if mourning for something.

Shigure Kira trembled all over, her heartbeat skipped a beat and then accelerated uncontrollably. She instinctively sensed that she seemed to have touched something very important.

Eden sighed deeply and recalled the past.

She once thought that Bai Ge's essence was "fighting for all that is beautiful," or like Elysia, "loving the world and humanity equally."

But with a deeper understanding of the youth, Eden discovered that these were wrong fallacies.

Bai Ge's essence is—choosing to sacrifice himself to protect important things.

He couldn't watch tragedies happen before his eyes and remain indifferent. If he didn't know, that would be fine, but once he knew, this youth who possessed the authority to change fate would be unable to help but do something.

In Bai Ge's own words—if he left it alone, he wouldn't feel good in his heart, and it would make his mood worse.

Thus, the white-haired youth carried the tragedy of an entire era, and at the cost of his memory, body, and heart being scarred, he remembered all the sadness and pain, and then changed them into beautiful endings one after another.

Using gentleness to describe him is too tragic.

Using strength to describe him is too beautiful.

This will to rather hurt himself than protect something just thinking about it makes Eden's heart ache so much she can hardly breathe.

Using his own blood and wounds and even death as chips to subvert all the regrettable tragedies—this is the essence of the white-haired youth.

Therefore, Bai Ge is not a mentally strong person.

After all, if he were truly mentally strong, he should be able to bear these tragedies.

Roaring in anger at the tragedies happening before his eyes, turning them into the motivation for his own growth, and then continuing to move forward—this is something even Kevin can do.

But Bai Ge wouldn't choose to move forward, but would choose to retreat. He stubbornly went to change and retrieve them... no matter how high the price he had to pay.

That heart that couldn't bear tragedy might be more fragile than glass in Eden's eyes, but Bai Ge's will was stronger than any steel, unyielding and unbreakable.

He is so stubborn, prejudiced, and refuses to admit defeat, even if he hits the south wall, he won't look back, always staring at fate with fierce eyes, simply like a dead child who won't grow up.

Because only grown-up adults will compromise with reality.

A dead child will never.

"Actually, my Bai never wanted to be the Savior who saves the world. What he wants... is to live happily with us, and with the people he cherishes, forever."

Eden drank the wine in her cup in one gulp, and a few blushes appeared on that peerless face.

"And that's why we like him so much. Not because he is the Savior, but because he is Bai Ge."

"So I won't give up either. No matter how difficult Elysia is to defeat, after all... my dream is to stand on this stage with Bai, pursuing art, music, and applause."

Shigure Kira looked at Eden in a daze. She didn't know what to say anymore.

She understood the essence of the white-haired youth.

But this might not be something she should understand.

Because Shigure Kira was not Bai Ge's lover, but a girl who hated him.
