8. Simulation Ends
Kevin folded his arms and said with a look of disbelief on his face, "... Ling actually wants to revive Elysia?"
Most people in the Fire Moth should know that Ling likes Elysia.
Even Kosma, who was the most dull at the time, had a vague sense of it.
So it's not really a secret.
At that time, some people were worried that Ling would be depressed after waking up, but fortunately, nothing happened. Only Dr. Mei had a vague idea.
Su patted Kevin's shoulder and said seriously, "Kevin, Ling's strength may have surpassed yours, so... please hold him back as long as possible."
Kevin didn't answer. He closed his eyes and thought for a long time. Finally, he nodded slowly: "I understand."
Kevin held the Judgment of Shamash and ran towards where Ling was.
Su came to the base of the World Serpent and walked towards the deepest part of the World Serpent.
"Su? Why are you here?"
Eden looked at Su in confusion. She could feel that this Su was not the Su in the Elysian Realm.
Su's tone was filled with urgency: "The situation is very critical; there is no time to explain. May I ask where Elysia is?"
"I think I hear someone calling me~?" Elysia appeared behind Su at some point.
The commotion here also attracted other people.
This surprised them that Su would come to the Elysian Realm in person.
They guess something terrible must have happened outside.
Su told everyone what happened outside.
If Darandal hadn't accidentally entered that world bubble, he might still be trapped in it.
Everyone looked at each other, unable to believe that this was something Ling could do.
Pardofelis, who has the best relationship with Ling, was in disbelief: "Is this... is this really Ling? He has always been very kind."
Sakura pondered, "No wonder Ling's memory was deleted by him personally fifty thousand years ago... He must have wanted us not to know."
Kalpas's eyes were filled with anger: "This guy... How dare he..."
Because in Kalpas's eyes, Ling's behavior has insulted Elysia's death.
If he had not been confined to the paradise, he would have torn Ling into pieces.
After a burst of noise, everyone looked at Elysia, as if they all wanted her to express her opinion.
They all knew that if they wanted to stop Ling, Elysia was the only solution.
Elysia gently touched her lips with her finger. After thinking for a moment, she held Eden's hand and asked softly, "Eden, can you help me put on some beautiful makeup?"
"???"
Everyone was stunned, perhaps because Elysia's words were too abrupt.
It was Eden who first saw through Elysia's thoughts: "You want to... go out? But we are all memories..."
Elysia looked at Mobius, who was silent, and said, "I believe that the omnipotent Dr. Mobius can do it, right?"
"…" Mobius's face darkened, and she did not answer.
"Okay, if that's possible, I'll leave it to you, Eden!" Elysia clasped her hands together, looking expectant.
Mobius shouted angrily, "Hey, I didn't promise you that."
Su bowed slightly to Mobius and said, "Dr. Mobius, this is an emergency. I'm counting on you."
He and Mobius had never gotten along, but right now, Mobius was the only one who could do it.
Mebius frowned; her experiment of using consciousness to invade the body was not yet complete.
But if you want to go out now, it's not impossible. There is only one result in the end.
Data Elimination
In other words, once Elysia leaves, there will be no more Elysia in the Elysian Realm.
However, Mobius herself knew very well that she could not refuse Elysia at all.
Even if she can't let her leave, she will try her best to get out.
And if Ling succeeds...the consequences will be unimaginable.
"...Since you've begged me so earnestly, I'll reluctantly help you this time. Klein, go get ready."
Mobius twisted her slender waist and left here.
Soon, Elysia came out with exquisite makeup on.
"Elysia, I'm warning you, once you go out, you'll never come back, and you only have three hours." There was a hint of warning in Mobius' words.
Elysia made a startled expression and looked at Mobius in disbelief.
"Mobius, are you reluctant to let me leave? Are you finally opening your heart~?"
Mobius turned his head away: "Who would be reluctant to part with you! Elysian Realm will be much quieter without you, and no one will interfere with my experiments!"
Elysia looked at Mobius teasingly and finally chuckled a few times.
She took a deep breath and scanned the faces of the heroes one by one.
Then she waved at them.
"Goodbye, everyone!"
Elysia's data completely disappeared in the Elysian Realm.
Outside the Elysian Realm, Elysia, made of data, slowly emerged.
"Su, please lead the way," Elysia said to Su.
Su nodded and replied, "Yeah."
The two rushed to the Schicksal headquarters without stopping, but were still a step too late. They saw that the door opened by "Cosmic Juggernaut Inverted Horizons" was about to close.
"Eye of Wisdom, open your eyes!"
Su's eyes opened instantly, and the door stopped for a moment.
Elysia took this opportunity to rush in.
She saw Ling's death and saw Kiana crying because of Ling.
But it was too late for her to stop.
Finally, just before Ling was about to touch it, she caught him.
"You are the memory of the Elysian Realm, right?"
Ling recognized the identity of Elysia in front of him.
"That's right. Let me see. Ling, whom I haven't seen in 50,000 years. Hmm... He's a little taller and a little more handsome. Did he secretly learn some cool tricks from Kevin?"
Elysia remains the same; she has never changed.
Even if she is just a memory...
"You want to stop me?" Ling looked at the "fake" Elysia in front of him, but his tone unconsciously became much softer.
Alicia nodded: "Well, I have to stop you."
Ling: "I can't stop."
Elysia: "Even if it means overturning the efforts of civilization of humanity that have existed for five thousand years?"
Ling: "They are meaningless to me."
Elysia was a little distressed: "Alas, sometimes being too charming can be a sin."
"So, after resurrecting me, what are your plans, Ling? Are you going to... confess to me?" Elysia's topic was very jumpy, and there was a hint of anticipation in her eyes.
Ling didn't even think twice and answered directly, "I will commit suicide. My hands are covered in blood. I am no longer worthy of touching her or facing her again."
However, the next second, Elysia held Ling's hand and looked at him carefully.
At this moment, the soul body and the data body produced a wonderful fusion.
Ling was frightened by her sudden action, and his eyes were stunned for a moment.
Elysia praised him generously, "Ling's hands are so clean! I never realized before that Ling's hands are as perfect as mine!"
"…"
Ling silently withdrew his hand.
"Let me see it again~!" Elysia held his hand again without giving up.
Then she held Ling's hand with a little force, and Ling's soul subconsciously leaned forward a little, and Elysia took the opportunity to hug him.
"I know, Ling has always liked me, right? I'm sorry that I didn't respond to you until the very end."
"But this is also Ling's fault. Why didn't you confess to me earlier... Would you know if I will agree or not?"
Ling: "...I don't deserve it."
Elysia's eyebrows were raised, with a hint of anger between her brows: "I won't allow you to belittle yourself like this."
Ling: "…"
Elysia's expression softened again. "I'm the Herrscher, the Herrscher of Human. I love all humans, including Ling! It's just... Ling, you're too greedy. You've secretly taken over my most central position. But Ling, you always fail to see yourself clearly. You're obviously very charming, too."
"Because Ling thinks you can follow me just because you are strong. Have you never thought about walking side by side with me?"
As she said this, Elysia pulled Ling's face.
"I..." Ling was speechless for a moment.
"Eh? Ling, you look much calmer. You look much calmer." Elysia seemed to have discovered something interesting.
Ling's spirit became much dimmer, as if it were about to disappear.
Ling: "…"
"Hehe, just kidding. Ling, you have tried very hard, really tried very hard... For the rest of your life, let us atone for your past sins together. Don't worry, this time, I will still always be with you, Ling, just like before."
Elysia's voice was very gentle, cleansing the sinful soul in Ling's body.
The man, covered in mud and dead fifty thousand years ago, now felt his heart beating again.
Just like the first time they met.
That unreachable figure was now standing in front of him.
There was no blame, no anger, only heartache for him and self-blame.
Ling couldn't help but nod, and when he came to his senses, he met Elysia's watery eyes.
As expected, he couldn't refuse Elysia, even though... she was just a "false" memory.
Elysia took Ling's hand, took a deep breath, and placed both of their hands on the core of the "Tree of Imaginary Numbers".
This time there is no more sadness, no more deception, and... no more Ling.
And the price... is the end of their lives.
The simulation is over!
