At night, Aili lay on the bed, feeling a bit conflicted.
Now, she felt that it might be a little too early to sleep.
Hua's training for her had been suspended because Aili had already learned, only lacking actual combat experience; training in dreams only allowed her spirit to keep up, but ultimately, real-world training was needed for her body to form memories.
It should have been a happy occasion, but Aili couldn't feel happy.
Because of the device for charging the puppets.
After discussing it in Elysian Realm, the others decided that Aili should attend classes in Elysian Realm every night.
Yes... classes.
To teach Aili directly how to make the device.
The device for charging the puppets wasn't very complicated.
But that was for Mobius.
For Aili, what Mobius taught was almost like an undecipherable script.
At first, Mobius even tried to teach Aili the principles.
By now, she no longer hoped for so much; as long as Aili could imitate and construct the device, it would be fine.
On Aili's bedside, there was already a device being assembled.
Lying on the bed, Aili took a deep breath, then put her spirit into the necklace.
"Why are you so late today?" Aili heard Mobius's voice before she even reached the hall.
"Good evening, Dr. Mobius." Aili looked at Mobius and greeted her.
Seeing Aili like this, Mobius was so exasperated she couldn't speak.
"Come here, continue learning the next step of the production." Mobius pointed to the bench beside her.
"Mobius, do I really have to make all the parts for this device myself?" Aili asked, looking at the pile of parts in front of her.
"If you can find someone else to learn, it's not impossible." Mobius said crossly.
She had never seen anyone so stupid!
No, a Herrscher!
In Mobius's opinion, Aili was just lazy!
Where was this place? This was the Paradise of the Past, and she was Corruption! Was it really that hard to directly see the data of this device?!
If she were Corruption, everyone in Elysian Realm would have long become her clones!
Then, she looked at Aili's silly expression again.
The snake sighed helplessly in her heart; after all, this was just her.
"Really? Why didn't you say so earlier!" Hearing Mobius's words, Aili immediately stood up.
"The Paradise of the Past is not a place just anyone can enter." Mobius glared at Aili.
"Oh, Dr. Mobius, I definitely won't bring bad people in, so don't worry ♬ ~" With that, Aili flashed away and left.
"You!" Mobius looked at the instantly empty chair, picked up a device part from beside her, and directly threw it to the ground.
After a while, Mobius sighed and picked up the part again.
"It seems our Purple Ellie has made Mobius angry again ♪ ~" Pink Aili hugged Mobius from behind.
"Elysia, if you have nothing to do, you can go run circles around the shrine nearby." Mobius said crossly.
"Alright, Mobius, after all, she's the successor we all acknowledge, isn't she ♪ ~" Aili put her arm around Mobius's neck, leaning her whole body on her back, and whispered in Mobius's ear.
"I think she just inherited your laziness!" Saying this, Mobius gritted her teeth, seemingly truly furious.
"And! Get off me! You're heavy!" Mobius broke free from Aili's embrace.
Then she picked up the parts on the table and directly retreated into the shadows.
After returning to reality, Aili breathed a sigh of relief.
Learning was truly too painful.
So, it was better to find someone else to learn.
As for the candidate, Aili had already chosen her.
This kind of delicate work should be left to our next Herrscher of Reason.
After all, it wasn't good for Bronya to be the only one watching them from behind.
Kiana and Mei were improving every day, but only Bronya's potential for improvement was very limited now.
So, it would be good to send her to the Paradise of the Past for further study.
Coincidentally, it could also solve the problem of the chip in Bronya's body.
Thinking this, Aili fell into a dream.
The next morning, after breakfast, Aili pulled Bronya into her room.
"Elysia, is something wrong?" Bronya asked, a little confused.
"Mm-hmm, Aili needs Bronya's help with something ♬ ~" Aili said, pointing to the device on the table that wasn't even a semi-finished product.
"What is this?"
"Mm, we'll talk about this device later ♬ ~" With that, Aili directly hugged Bronya.
When her hand touched Bronya's neck, the ownership of the chip on Bronya's body had already changed.
"Mm-hmm, it's fine now." Aili released Bronya with satisfaction.
Looking at Bronya, who tilted her head, Aili explained.
"Aili just blocked the backdoor program of the chip on your body ♬ ~"
"The chip..." Bronya touched her neck.
"That chip, did Mother really leave something else?" Bronya said with some loss.
"Does Bronya care a lot?" Aili picked up Bronya and sat on the bed.
"Mother, she wasn't like this before." Bronya whispered.
Sometime, Bronya's mother, Cocolia, began to madly pursue power and started those experiments.
"Is it very hard?" Aili said softly.
"Mm, Elysia, I don't know how to face Mother." Bronya said, lowering her head, tears dripping onto Bronya's hands.
"Elysia, the truth about the Third Honkai Impact was done by Bronya's mother." When saying this, Bronya kept her head down.
Hearing Bronya's words, Aili just reached out and stroked Bronya's head.
When she first touched her, Bronya's body trembled slightly.
"Alright, didn't that matter pass already? Aili doesn't mean to blame anyone else. If Bronya thinks your mother made a mistake, then when you meet her, just question her loudly, couldn't you?"
"Bronya doesn't know how to tell Sister Mei and Kiana the truth about this matter, and doesn't know how to face them."
Hearing this, Aili sighed in her heart.
How did things turn out this way?
This was not what she had imagined.
Aili hugged Bronya into her arms and gently patted Bronya's back with her hand.
"Alright, alright, your mother's business is her business. You just need to be yourself, don't you? You have to believe Mei and Kiana, don't you?"
Aili gently comforted Bronya.
"And you still have things to do, don't you?"
"Mm, Bronya still has to save Seele, Seele is still waiting for Bronya." Bronya whispered.
Only her spirit had stabilized a lot.
