Chapter 787: Inception within inception?!

Seeing this, Kiana also becomes excited.

"Miss Yayi, Miss Yayi, did Raven think of the Elysian Realm?"

"Will she tell Ancestor Kaiwen, and then Ancestor Kaiwen will personally enter the Elysian Realm to crush the Corruption?"

Miss Yayi: "... This... I'd better not spoil the plot, right?"

"After all, if I spoil the plot, you won't have any sense of anticipation."

Although she says that, Miss Yayi doesn't really remember it either.

But she clearly remembers one point—

Ancestor Kaiwen did not enter the Elysian Realm, but stood at the entrance of the Elysian Realm holding the Shamash Greatsword...

He is the final insurance.

If the Herrscher of Corruption wins in the end, then when it walks out of the Elysian Realm, it will be greeted by 【A powerful attack】 from Ancestor Kaiwen.

However, this also makes Miss Yayi a bit confused.

"Could it be... that Raven really reported this matter to Ancestor Kaiwen?"

Too much time has passed, and Miss Yayi is indeed a bit fuzzy on this kind of plot that has nothing to do with her.

In the game.

After Raven's plot ends, the perspective actually shifts to... the Herrscher of Corruption.

That was when the Herrscher of Corruption was just born.

And from the narrative of the text below, the Corruption at this time is truly like an infant, understanding nothing.

The first thing it understands is the 【World】.

Gradually, in this 【World】, some 【Events】 begin to emerge...

And 【Events】 are the second concept it understands.

At the same time, the game screen lights up again.

And this screen... is incredibly familiar to the players.

It is the scene when Miss Yayi first met the 【Will of Honkai】.

And the Herrscher of Corruption is the third individual that Miss Yayi did not discover at that time.

At this moment, Miss Yayi is saying something to the 【Will of Honkai】.

The Herrscher of Corruption does not understand what they are saying, but it instinctively wants to 【Corrupt】 the two people in front of it.

【Corruption】 to it is like breathing, something it naturally knows how to do.

—【Corrupt "Herrscher of Thunder"】

—【Corrupt "Will of Honkai"】

After it uses its authority... nothing happens.

Clearly, its corruption failed.

But at this time, it has not yet learned the concept of 【Failure】.

However, it also knows that the two figures in front of it—whether it is 【Him/Her/It】 or 【She】 who holds the authority—are existences that a newborn Herrscher cannot corrupt.

It shouldn't even have appeared here.

The only reason this newly born 【Third Party】 was involved here was that it was 【Accidentally affected】.

Seeing this, the live chat discusses it incredibly enthusiastically.

Most of them are—

【I'm dying of laughter (laugh-cry)】

【It's truly too funny (laugh-cry)】

Of course, some people suspect that the Herrscher of Corruption appearing here must be the 【Will of Honkai】's doing.

Sure enough...

Although its corruption failed, it used this opportunity to inhabit Miss Yayi and followed her into the Elysian Realm.

And the players are also certain that this must be the 【Will of Honkai】's doing.

Otherwise, how could there be such a coincidence.

Subsequently, 【It】 understands what 【Joy】 is from Elysia and backs it up into 【Purple】.

It understands 【Anticipation】 from Mobius and backs it up into Blue.

It understands what 【Curiosity】 is from Griseo and backs it up into Green.

Subsequently, it follows Miss Yayi all the way, and when Aponia says she wants to kill Miss Yayi, it feels... 【Fear】, and extends from this, understanding what 【Death】 is when Miss Yayi goes to challenge Kalpas.

When Miss Yayi is saved by Aponia, it begins to understand 【Relief】.

It is relieved that every time it faces a choice, it copies itself and leaves it as a backup.

At the same time, it also begins to understand 【Regret】...

It regrets following Miss Yayi into the Elysian Realm.

The self that chose to stay in reality should be facing a broader world right now, making more colorful and brilliant decisions, and thus causing the number of copies to grow rapidly...

And the self that followed Miss Yayi to the Elysian Realm... made the wrong decision...?

... But it doesn't matter anymore, as long as one of the 【Backups】 is still alive, 【It】 can live forever.

However, when it checks those backups in reality, it finds... they have all disappeared.

It doesn't know who did it, nor does it know how the other party was able to do it.

It... is 【Alone】 again!?

It feels 【Fear】 again.

Because the shadows cast upon it by Kalpas and Aponia in the Elysian Realm are simply too great.

At this moment, the text in the game changes into various colors.

Anonymous (Red): I don't want to die... don't want to... disappear just like this.

Anonymous (Red): I want to live on and leave more traces of myself.

Anonymous (Blue): Leave traces.

Anonymous (Green): Continue on forever.

Anonymous (Purple): Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes...

Seeing this, the players suddenly recall the scene from the beginning of Chapter 29.

That segment, the inexplicable "message."

【Holy crap!!】

【66666, so that's what it was!!】

【Awesome! I didn't expect the foreshadowing to be left back then; those colored words were actually the Herrscher of Corruption "talking to itself"!!】

【Now, the plot holes of the Elysian Realm can be considered completely filled!】

【I was still saying before, what on earth did that inexplicable opening mean...】 ===== CHAPTER 789 =====
