Chapter 42: Live Q&A
[ Honkai Impact 3rd - Kiana: Kevin… ]
Inside St. Freya Academy, Kiana had initially been furious upon seeing Kevin take Raiden Mei away. However, after witnessing Kevin's contributions to saving the world, she found herself at a loss for words.
Beside her, Raiden Mei and Bronya simply patted Kiana's shoulder, shaking their heads with smiles on their faces.
[ Honkai Impact 3rd - Elysia: Kevin… ]
Similarly feeling a bit downcast were the dozen or so Flame-Chasers of the Previous Era. They all focused their gaze on Kevin, who was sitting on a stool eating noodles.
"Boss Kevin!" Pardo Felis looked at Kevin with a timid expression.
"Perhaps such an ending isn't bad!" Seeing the footage where humanity finally triumphed over the Honkai, and where he ultimately headed toward a new world with his comrades and lover, a faint smile tugged at the corner of Kevin's mouth.
[ Genshin Impact - Sangonomiya Kokomi: To put it objectively, Mr. Kevin and Mr. Otto are quite similar. One cannot judge their actions through an ordinary lens. Although they committed many misdeeds, they likewise fought against the Honkai! ]
[ Honkai: Star Rail - Sushang: This friend is right. In our Xianzhou terms, it's 'No man… is per… fect?' ]
[ Honkai: Star Rail - Guinaifen: Shangshang, it's 'No man is perfect'! ]
[ Honkai: Star Rail - Xuan Yong: To quote what Otto said earlier, their rights and wrongs, their achievements and failures, will eventually be submerged in history. There will always be only one name for people to remember. ]
[ Honkai: Star Rail - Xuan Yong: There are many forks in the road of life. Whether you choose to face your life calmly or choose to defy heaven, no matter what you do, it is a way of moving toward destiny. ]
[ Genshin Impact - Klee: Klee doesn't understand! ]
[ Genshin Impact - Kaeya: Hahaha, little Klee, you're still young. You don't need to understand these big principles yet. You just need to be happy! ]
[ Honkai: Star Rail - Aha: You old geezer, I didn't think you'd be one for preaching. But then again, your Path of Destiny is the most complex among us few. ]
[ Honkai Impact 3rd - Theresa: Let's set aside Kevin's rights and wrongs for a moment. In the end, we humans finally defeated the Honkai, and that is something worth celebrating! ]
[ Honkai Impact 3rd - Murata Himeko: That's true! After defeating the Honkai, I'll find a boyfriend, get married, have kids, and live out the rest of my life in peace! ]
[ Honkai: Star Rail - Robin: Then, it is time for the prize-winning Q&A again! ]
Seeing Robin speak, the others in the inventory livestream stopped chatting and waited seriously for the question.
…
"Miss Robin's words are indeed effective. Sigh, seeing you all chatting so happily, I was planning to slip away!"
"But since you've remembered the Q&A, I shall be the one to ask the next question!"
"Dr. MEI was a person of top-tier intelligence in the Previous Era, yet there was one thing she was extremely bad at, something even Kevin feared immensely. What was this thing?"
"A. Shopping"
"B. Cooking"
"C. Scientific Research"
[ Honkai Impact 3rd - MEI: What is the meaning of this? Kevin, what do you fear about me? ]
[ Honkai Impact 3rd - Kevin: XXXXX ]
[ Honkai Impact 3rd - Vill-V: It seems Boss Kevin has been muted! ]
[ Genshin Impact - Kaedehara Kazuha: I think C can be directly excluded. After all, since Dr. MEI was among the most intelligent people of the Previous Era, she must have been quite formidable at scientific research. ]
[ Honkai: Star Rail - Herta: That's correct. As the most intelligent person of an entire civilization, conducting scientific research should be second nature! ]
[ Genshin Impact - Collei: Then only A and B are left? ]
[ Honkai Impact 3rd - Raiden Mei: It shouldn't be B, right? Looking at Dr. MEI's appearance in the inventory livestream, she seems to share the same bloodline origin as me? ]
[ Honkai Impact 3rd - Kiana: Right, right, right! Since this Dr. MEI is of the same origin as Mei-senpai, she must be great at cooking too! ]
[ Honkai Impact 3rd - Kevin: XXXXX ]
[ Honkai: Star Rail - Jing Yuan: Mr. Kevin, do you have something you wish to say? ]
[ Honkai Impact 3rd - Eden: Not only is Boss Kevin muted in the livestream, but his mouth has been forcibly sealed shut by the livestream in reality as well. ]
…
"Lord Xuan Yong, what do you think it will be?" At this moment, Guinaifen cautiously asked Xuan Yong.
Just now, while she and Sushang were livestreaming in the Fyxestroll Garden, they were startled by a Heliobus. Sushang had even fainted from fright. If it weren't for the passing Aeon of Destiny—Xuan Yong—saving them, they would have been devoured by those Heliobi.
"Destiny will guide your path. Just follow the voice of your heart!" Xuan Yong said leisurely, resting his feet on Hanya's desk.
Seeing Xuan Yong put his feet on her desk, Hanya clenched her fists tightly, but thinking of Xuan Yong's status as an Aeon, she could only let go helplessly.
…
[ Genshin Impact - Nahida: Accompanying a girl shopping… that is indeed a terrifying thing! ]
As the Dendro Archon who controls the Irminsul, Lesser Lord Kusanali often saw men on the Irminsul whose legs were paralyzed with exhaustion from accompanying their girlfriends shopping.
[ Honkai: Star Rail - Screwllum: Accompanying a woman shopping should be an easy task for the strongest MANTIS—Kevin. ]
[ Honkai: Star Rail - Firefly: Does that mean this question is just a matter of luck? ]
[ Honkai Impact 3rd - Durandal: It seems that's the only option left! ]
[ Genshin Impact - Xianyun: So, are we to wait for the livestream to automatically select someone? ]
[ Honkai Impact 3rd - Rita: It seems that's the only option! ]
[ Honkai: Star Rail - Seele: Then let's wait! ]
…
"Time is up. Since no one has answered, the livestream will personally select a participant!"
"Let us congratulate Genshin Impact - Ganyu for obtaining the chance to answer!"
[ Genshin Impact - Ganyu: Eh? Eh? Me? ]
Ganyu, who was currently reviewing official documents, snapped awake upon hearing her name called in the livestream, speaking with a look of surprise.
"Yes, please answer as soon as possible!"
[ Genshin Impact - Ganyu: Then I'll choose A! ]
Ganyu couldn't think of the answer at the moment and could only pick one at random.
"Congratulations to Genshin Impact - Ganyu for answering incorrectly!"
[ Honkai Impact 3rd - Bronya: Congratulating her even though she answered incorrectly? ]
"Next, let us select the next participant."
"Let us congratulate…"
