However, before Mei was ready, Sue said they could set off.
This surprised Mei: "Is this... a mental link? I don't feel anything."
Then, Su's voice slowly rang out: "This technology was originally used to control the bodies of our comrades who were no longer fit to fight."
"But I couldn't directly control a Herrscher as powerful as you to begin with, so its effect on you is naturally negligible."
"I see……"
Immediately afterwards, Mei began to wander around Eternal Paradise.
The purpose of wandering around was naturally to find other heroes.
Soon, she met Eden on a platform.
When the players saw that slender, beautiful woman with long, wine-red hair, they couldn't help but feel a pang of sadness...
After all, Eden is still unaware that Alicia is dead...
And the relationship between Eden and Alicia...
It's heartbreaking to think about.
Chapter 289 Ellie: Write a long letter that will make people miss me...
"Ah, Mei-san~"
Eden's voice was still as soft and sweet as ever.
However, compared to usual, Eden seemed drunk at this moment.
"Eden, have you... seen Alicia?"
Seeing this, even the spirit attached to Mei couldn't help but complain.
“Visitor…you’re asking too directly…”
Mei: "Don't panic, I know what to do."
Perhaps because he was drunk, Eden did not detect Sue's mental link.
Eden also thought that Mei was talking to Sue when she answered her question.
"Huh? Mei... what are you talking about? You know what to do... why did you still come to me?"
Mei: "...Uh..."
"That...refers to something else."
"I have some questions for Alicia, but she seems to have disappeared—I've already searched many places."
After pondering for a moment, Eden smiled gently.
"Isn't that natural? Eternal Paradise is her paradise. If she wants to be alone for a while, no one can find her."
"We all crave solitude sometimes, don't we?"
Mei nodded in agreement with Eden, then asked again, "Has this ever happened before?"
“More than once~” Eden seemed to recall something amusing, a captivating smile appearing on his lips:
"Ellie...she's very concerned about how everyone will feel when she's not around."
"I once saw her alone, hunched over her desk, deep in thought... When I asked her what she was doing, she said—"
"I want to write a long letter that everyone who reads it will remember me for."
"Right now, perhaps Ellie is secretly watching this place from somewhere, wanting to see how people miss her?"
……
Seeing this, many players will soon be living in Bengbu again.
They felt sorry for both Eden and Alicia.
This lovely and charming fairy always presents a happy and playful side to others.
But setting aside her identity as Thirteen Heroes, she was actually just a young girl.
She also cares about what others think of her.
She gets sad if others dislike her.
She will also feel reluctant to part with Mei.
[Waaaaah... Airi QAQ]
……
"Then... Eden, what if Alicia really disappears completely—I mean, what if..."
The smile on Eden's face vanished instantly upon hearing Mei's words.
Her lips moved, but Mei didn't hear a sound.
Or rather... it was as if her voice had been sucked into something and completely absorbed.
There is a kind of "gravity" about her that can be seen with the naked eye.
Mei only realized what was happening when she saw this.
This languid singer was once a warrior in the distant past!
"...Looks like I'm drunk, how embarrassing."
Eden returned to its usual state.
"Miss Mei, in my opinion... that kind of assumption is simply impossible."
At this point, the players understood.
The moment Mei finished speaking, Eden became clearly serious.
It is clear that Alicia holds a very important place in Eden's heart.
But... Alicia is really dead...
At this moment, everyone felt a sense of unease and frustration.
Eden, Ellie...
……
In the game, after Mei bid farewell to Eden, she met Hua.
"Could I take up some of your time, Hua?"
"Please go ahead, time is not important to us."
Mei directly asked the question she had prepared beforehand.
“I remember you would periodically delete some unnecessary memories from yourself, but given your current state, doesn’t that also mean…”
"Do you lose a part of yourself every time?"
Upon seeing Mei's question, the audience immediately perked up.
After all, Hua's next answer might determine whether he can return to Alicia.
"Mei, I don't quite understand what you mean..."
"Memory is proof that a person has lived, and for everyone in reality, it is also equivalent to losing a part of oneself..."
Mei nodded before asking the crucial question: "What about... those deleted memories?"
Hua: "Completely disappeared, it can never be found again."
Meiyi: "..."
"What would happen if you deleted all your memories at once?"
These repeated inquiries made the honest Hua realize something was amiss.
"??"
She took a deep breath: "Mei... something happened, right?"
Mei did not answer directly: "I'm sorry, for some reasons, I cannot tell you the truth."
But I won't hide from you the fact that I've been hiding something.
"I understand..." Hua was indeed an honest man, and he would never pry into things that he didn't want to answer.
Let's go back to the question we just discussed.
"If all my memories are erased, then all traces of me here will also disappear."
"For any hero who has sacrificed himself... this means that even the last things they left behind in this world no longer exist."
Mei: "...Is there...any possibility of remediation?"
Hua: "To my knowledge, no."
……
The answer that everyone in the live chat was waiting for never appeared...
