Chapter 114: Willing to mourn for the deceased, tears falling like rain, filling the crossing river

Zhongli: "Emanator of Nihility..."

Zhongli: "So that's what 'an Emanator that shouldn't exist' meant..."

Himeko: "What exactly has Miss Acheron experienced?"

Himeko: "To be able to walk such a long distance on the Path of Nihility?"

Acheron: "It's a long story..."

Acheron: "That is a dusty past..."

Acheron: "If there is a chance in the future... I will tell you all slowly..."

Venti: "Aeon of Nihility... this Aeon can be considered the strongest in the universe, right?"

Venti: "After all, the meaning She covers is... really too broad."

Ei: "Everything will eventually head toward Nihility... nothing exists eternally..."

Ei: "If so, the Aeon of Nihility should be the end of the universe..."

Ei: "If that's the case, what is the meaning of our existence?"

Nahida: "That is a very profound question..."

Nahida: "But is the end of the universe really Nihility?"

Nahida: "Or rather, can it only be Nihility?"

Lumine: "I think... existence itself is the meaning."

Lumine: "Even if everything in the universe eventually heads toward Nihility, everything we do before that is meaningful!"

Lumine: "At least for us, it is!"

Paimon: "Yeah, yeah, Lumine is right!"

Paimon: "Forget about Nihility or not, as long as we feel what we're doing is meaningful, that's enough!"

Acheron: "I am glad that you can still recognize the value of self after knowing about Nihility."

Acheron: "That's right, even if the shadow of Nihility envelops everyone."

Acheron: "But, as I said, there will always be people who return from the shadows!"

Acheron: "Even if that... is very, very little, so little it's almost non-existent!"

Acheron: "But existence is existence, this is something even Nihility cannot deny!"

Furina: "Miss Acheron's words... seem a bit strange."

Furina: "As someone who has walked so far on the Path of Nihility, shouldn't you acknowledge Nihility?"

Furina: "But why does it sound like you are... resisting Nihility?"

Acheron: "Because stepping into Nihility... was not my wish."

Acheron: "I originally wanted to walk toward the light... but I never knew that it was just a pitch-black sun that could devour everything."

Acheron: "I drowned in Nihility, but I tried my best to retain the last trace of color."

Acheron: "This allowed me to continue existing, not completely returning to Nihility."

Dr. Ratio: "In fact, this action of Miss Acheron is not strange."

Dr. Ratio: "In the universe, there are not a few people who stepped into the Path of Nihility by accident."

Dr. Ratio: "And most of these people do not acknowledge the philosophy of Nihility."

Dr. Ratio: "Therefore, they try their best to prove the meaning of existence for all things to Nihility."

Dr. Ratio: "But the result is..."

Herta: "No one can deny Nihility, because She is always there."

Herta: "In short, if you want to be a stable, ordinary person for a lifetime, then I advise you not to have too many thoughts about exploring Nihility."

Herta: "Otherwise, if you get tainted by Nihility, you won't be able to get out."

Firefly: "Nihility... is truly a terrifying thing."

Black Swan: "Who says it isn't..."

Black Swan: "And this precisely highlights the strength of Miss Acheron's will."

Black Swan: "The conviction to be able to resist the erosion of Nihility, I really want to see Miss Acheron's past memories..."

The video continues.

Acheron returns from the fleeting memory.

She looks toward the horizon.

[Hahahaha...]

On the horizon, the eerie Aventurine laughs wildly,

and begins to scatter the rain of chips across the earth!

Rumble!

These chips are like cannonballs,

blasting dust and loud noises out of the high-rise buildings in the city!

Welt and Himeko watch this scene,

and hurriedly protect Stelle and March 7th behind them.

And at the very front, Acheron,

moves at this moment!

She steps forward,

and everything begins to lose its color in an instant,

leaving only black and white!

And her own color also begins to fade.

But a trace of extremely vivid red remains!

[Willing to mourn for the deceased, tears falling like rain, filling the crossing river...]

A drop of blood-tear flows from Acheron's eye,

and her crimson right hand begins to grip the hilt of her blade.

[...Surging like the tide, leading you home.]

The next moment, Acheron finally draws her blade!

The crimson Nihility blade light pierces through space,

freezes time,

and carrying peerless power,

slashes toward Aventurine above the horizon!

And after this slash,

Acheron sheathes her blade and stands still.

The power of Nihility dissipates,

and above the sky, it begins to drizzle...

Stelle: "Damn!"

Stelle: "Is this Acheron's slash?"

Stelle: "Even the dream was slashed with a gap!!"

Stelle: "Looking at it, she was still holding back, right?!"

Dr. Ratio: "I think we should be rigorous."

Dr. Ratio: "This can't be called holding back, this is directly releasing an ocean!"

Dr. Ratio: "With this level of Nihility power, if she were willing, she could easily slash this dream world into nothingness with one blade."

Kazuha: "The majesty of this slash... is unreachable..."

Ei: "Power that makes one yearn..."

Ei: "It's just a pity that this power belongs to Nihility..."

Lumine: "Too terrifying, one slash can slash away a world."

Lumine: "Is this an Emanator?"

Paimon: "I think, with this level of power, even if the Heavenly Principles came, they wouldn't be able to take one slash, right?"

Zhongli: "Generally speaking, if the Heavenly Principles used all their trump cards, they might barely be able to withstand one slash."

Zhongli: "Of course, the premise is that Miss Acheron did not use her full strength!"

Zhongli: "Otherwise, even the Heavenly Principles would have no possibility of taking this slash!"

Zhongli: "After all, this is the power of Nihility..."

Venti: "Mommy, this slash is truly too terrifying, just looking at it from the video, I feel like my scalp is going to explode!"

Venti: "If I were grazed by the aftermath of this slash, I would probably turn into ash directly!"

Furina: "Ahhh, Miss Acheron is really so cool!"

Furina: "Did you see it?"

Furina: "When Miss Acheron drew her blade, even her appearance changed!"

Furina: "Black and white tones, with a trace of heart-stopping crimson!"

Furina: "Coupled with those two lines before she drew her blade..."

Furina: "Oh no, I've already immersed myself in Miss Acheron's heroic posture and can't get out!!"

Acheron: "..."
