Chapitre 10: Chapter 10: Sans' Judgement

"Good! Very good! Excellent!"

Unexpectedly, Bronie initiated the challenge. In that case, Kalpas had nothing much to say.

Burn!

Except to answer with violence as well!!!!

Elysia was very worried. Bronie just unleashed a powerful attack. Is she really okay?

"Take a little break~"

Continuous battles demand a lot of stamina.

Then flames covered the entire scene.

Countless drones were materialized in the air, and they fired together to form a dense barrage, extinguishing all the flames emitted by Kalpas.

Then, one grenade after another exploded in the air. Countless cooling liquids came into contact with Kalpas the moment they exploded, immediately producing countless mists.

The whole space became ethereal.

"Is that it?"

During Kalpas's battle process, he was basically in a state of being savage but silent.

And his overall fighting style was downright reckless, just like a wild beast.

What is a mist?

Just a slight obstruction of vision. He had already memorized Bronie's position earlier. As long as he charged forward, using his sharp perception to directly judge the opponent's location, then he will immediately counterattack!

Kalpas's fighting method was so simple and crude, like a beast.

And Bronie's fighting style, naturally was like a hunter.

Design traps and luring the opponent; Based on Bronie's analysis of Kalpas's character, and the fighting style of Kalpas in the game Honkai Impact 3rd, Bronie set a series of traps.

The first was the mist environment.

In the mist, let the drones disperse to every corner, using attacks to lure the opponent.

Even using some drones to create sounds of movement to induce Kalpas's wrong judgment.

At first, the effect was pretty good.

It was just Kalpas' indiscriminate meteorite attacks, being completely irregular, which made Bronie feel a bit troublesome.

"How does this feel?"

"Just scratching an itch like a eating a rabbit!"

Just as Kalpas responded to Bronie's words.

In the mist, through thermal imaging, Bronie powered up the Haxxor Bunny Energy Sniper Cannon in her hand.

Then.

"Fire."

Hit and run.

Then leaving behind a hopping bunny bomb in place.

Unfortunately, there's no such thing as a health bar in reality, so Bronie had no idea when Kalpas would get angry. She hoped this attack would give him a little shock from how ferocious the Haxxor Bunny is.

"Not bad, very good!"

The laser indeed pierced Kalpas's abdomen!

Even his clothes were torn apart, and Kalpas could only feel frustrated with Bronie's slippery fighting style.

"Ha!!!!"

The flames burned even more fiercely.

Kalpas's body also turned into flames, and his previous injuries began to heal.

Then a gigantic pillar of fire rose, melting everything. The searing flame started to cover the area.

She didn't see where Kalpas went in this hellfire but she knew.

Bronie knew it was time.

"Project Bunny, ride on!"

Although it wasn't a real Project Bunny.

But it was a motorcycle that Bronie had cobbled together from various places in the Cyber Arc City.

It had the appearance, and its speed was definitely not weak!

As for why Bronie materialized the motorcycle?

Of course, its to run away!

If one looked up at the sky at this moment, they can find it had turn crimson, and they would see a huge meteor falling down along with the red sky filled with small meteors like it was a meteor shower.

Kalpas seemed to have propelled himself towards the sky with the large pillar of fire earlier and is now dropping as a meteor.

The huge flaming meteor even seemed like it was going to cover the entire area which were already covered in flames, never mind the other small meteors who also continuously fall.

She wasn't stupid, waiting to be smashed by the meteor or stubbornly resisting it?

Running away is just a matter of course.

A holographic road extended under the motorcycle's wheels, made of high-strength material, stretching into the distance. Bronie didn't hesitate to twist the throttle and go far away.

Just in time for the fiery meteor to crash.

A star crashed the very land, red hue bathed everything crimson, sundering everything, a huge mushroom cloud rose, and heat and flame scattered everywhere!

Small consecutive meteors followed suit, in which the data realm struggled with Kalpas' strike, but it seems Kalpas was not over just yet...

"Come back! Coward!"

A fiery figure blasted away all fire and heat, blowing the smoke away and decimated land crumbled upon his stomp, carrying a large flaming pillars of rock as Kalpas instantly bolted to give chase towards Bronie.

Kalpas was slightly getting frustrated.

Kalpas was just starting to get into the fight, and he was already transitioning phases.

And the result?

This guy didn't follow the usual routine at all, she directly prepared to run away after his move, which made Kalpas very frustrated.

When Kalpas set up a huge pillar of stone to chase Bronie, the drones swarmed around Kalpas like summer mosquitoes, harrasing him.

Bronie can't help but tease him.

"You're in a hurry?"

Bronie was still accelerating, but she still didn't completely distance herself from Kalpas.

It was a testament to Kalpas's speed, fueled by his physical burst, was terrifying.

Not just physical speed, he was also simultaniously exploding his feet with every step, flame and heat propelling him forward. A risky move but a calculated one.

Fortunately, Bronie had cleverly used mist to create a favorable environment earlier, so Kalpas wasn't too daring to blindly charge ahead, otherwise he would have already catched up.

Compared to the game, the Elysian Realm was definitely much larger. It would even automatically expand based on memory and the activity range of the visitors.

But it goes without saying that material reuse was a given, so the scenery inside was slightly more random, but the style was mostly the same. The continuous meteors falling was also still the same.

But due to Kalpas's pursuit, the nature of this battle completely changed.

Just a simple "you're in a hurry" immediately made Kalpas's fur stand on end.

The fiery stone pillars were all thrown! But they all met their end like the shield-type drones who blocked them.

The motorcycle under her feet was accelerating faster and faster, showing signs of distancing itself from Kalpas.

Now Kalpas was not happy.

This was just boring.

He immediately stopped, and with a wave of his hand, meteor shower gradually began to stop.

"You win."

Unable to catch up and only being beaten, this was not the fighting style Kalpas liked. But it was indeed quite effective.

Since he didn't want to chase like a fool and didn't want to use too much force, from his perspective of the trial, Bronie had passed.

Although Kalpas was still a bit unhappy now.

These words were almost roared out by Kalpas, and Bronie also made a cool drift turn and rode her small motorcycle to Kalpas's side.

"Sorry, my fighting style is like this, I focus on stability."

"It doesn't matter. Do you think I used my full strength? If I really did, you probably wouldn't even see a trace."

For children, Kalpas was always very tolerant.

"Maybe so, but I feel that the Signet Elysia gave me has brought me a lot of strength."

"Hmm."

Kalpas grasping his mask, turned around and replied.

"Take my Signet. I am Kalpas, also known as the Flame Chaser of Decimation, one of the Thirteen Flame Chasers, I forgot the ranking. In short, get lost, and don't let me see you again."

The Signet of Decimation merged into Bronie's body, and her mind began to itch again.

Then, some battle methods appeared in her mind. But most of them were quite violent and ruthless.

This didn't match Bronie's fighting style.

But it could still serve as a reference.

A teleportation gate appeared behind him, seemingly the path to leave the Elysian Realm.

But before leaving, Bronie projected a laptop and placed it on the ground.

"Sorry, I accidentally broke your computer when we met earlier. I analyzed it a bit and replicated it."

Kalpas didn't respond.

But when Bronie left, he silently turned around and picked up the laptop that Bronie had carefully placed on the ground. After opening it, he saw the save file he had played before.

The same level, the same scene, and the same inventory content.

"Troublesome..."

After a faint complaint, Kalpas quieted down and continued playing.

No other meaning, he just simply needing the rest time after the battle. This thing happened to help pass the time.

And this game did bring a slight joy to him..

Although the preceding content easily evoked some unpleasant memories, isn't remembering the past what Kalpas hopes for? It's just that the previous Kalpas was a bit foolish, only able to recall memories through battles.

But now it's different; the game brought by Bronie, although plain and warm, always inadvertently uncovers past wounds.

For Kalpas, however, it's also considered an excellent memory aid.

After reaching the next save point, he will activate another simulation data of Aponia and give her a good beating!

Rest?

Playing until the next save point is reached; isn't that already resting?

Kalpas is such a passionate and sunny man; the experience with him is always vigorous, always burning.

...

"My My, you finally arrived. After our first meeting, I realized something ghastly. You're not just a threat to monsters, but humanity as well. Oh! My, that is an issue.

You see, I cant be a star without an audience. And besides, there are some people... I still want to protect!"

Mobius also opened the live broadcast room. When Mettaton appeared to obstruct the protagonist, Mobius always felt like this person had just described herself and Eden all over again.

You should know that Eden also gave up her identity as a star for similar reasons, and herself? Mettaton's evaluation of herself is correct. She is not only a threat to monsters but also poses a huge threat to humanity.

"Rrrrready? IiiiiiiT's Showtime!"

At first, Mettaton was born as a killing machine robot. But its dream now is to be a star. It's just that there's someone in the underground who's going to slaughter everyone.

So Mettaton doesn't mind being a hero!

With a gorgeous transformation sound effect, the square robot transformed into a humanoid robot, although the pixel art looks a bit rudimentary, but with the bgm, it has a hint of handsomeness.

"Another hero has stepped forward. So, what kind of resistance can she make this time?" After the boss battle in Undyne, there were no more difficult enemies, so Mobius regained his confidence again.

Then Mobius gave a slash.

"-904482"

With just this slash, it easily passed through the opponent's body, causing tons of critical damage.

Mobius was stunned directly.

"Huh?"

Mettaton was Handsome for only three seconds.

"Oh... Guess you don't want to join my fan club...?"

Mettaton exploded directly on the spot, completely dissipating into the air.

Suddenly, the whole broadcast room fell into an awkward atmosphere.

"I reached LV19..... Well, forget it, I'll just keep going."

Mobius controlled the protagonist to continue forward, but the tone of the protagonist began to change.

In the next house, Flowey began to narrate what happened after he became Flowey.

"This is me, Chara."

"The name of the first fallen human? I see, as the Genocide Route progresses, will I gradually be replaced by another person?"

Got the real knife, equipped with a pendant.

The character began to enter the basement.

At this point, the flower showed up again, starting to tell players some truths.

Initially, it had no heart, no soul, couldn't feel warmth or fear.

At the same time, it had the ability to save and reset the world.

It experienced every possible outcome in this world through this ability, bringing happiness to everyone.

But one day, it suddenly became tired of doing good things and had new ideas...

"...First, it was merely to satisfy my curiosity. I wanted to know what would happen if I killed them. I told myself, 'I don't like this. I'm only doing it because I truly want to know the answer.'

Hahaha! What a great excuse. You must know better than anyone else how relieving this approach can be. At least we're better than those hypocrites who passively observe evil... They want to witness it but lack the courage to act. I bet there are such people watching now."

The first half kept oneself tightly in check, Mobius felt it was interesting, but the latter half's wave of accusations and rebukes shook Mobius for a moment.

[Napping cat: No no no! I definitely wasn't curious about what the Genocide Route was like, I just accidentally saw it!

Frozen Ice Cubes: Got it, let's go play the Genocide Route."

Shining Melody: The creator of this game really hopes that everyone can take this story seriously, rather than just treating it as a game.]

Eden expressed her understanding, and Mobius was slightly stunned.

"This is just a game, isn't it? It looks like a game, plays like a game, it is a game, and that's something that won't change no matter what."

Mobius inwardly agreed with Eden's statement, but she still responded stubbornly.

In the end, Flowey continued.

"Like us, once someone blocks our path, we will mercilessly strike, so... this is... why..."

At this moment, Flowey realized that it had also blocked the protagonist's path.

It began to tremble, the soulless Flowey, who claimed not to have any feelings about anything, also began to fear the player.

"Exactly~ that's it, don't you understand us very well?"

"However, it's all too late."

At this moment, whether it was the audience or Mobius herself, they could feel as if the protagonist had become something else.

Throughout the journey, the use of save points, from the initial definition of the soul, to Asgore's plan after collecting souls.

Everything, the clever Mobius vaguely grasped something after all those clued.

But Flowey still hid, no longer appearing in front of the protagonist.

And behind Flowey, there was a long corridor.

This was Mobius's first sight upon arriving at this place, so after saving, she was not sure what to do next.

A round, black figure blocked the protagonist's path in this golden corridor..

"Hey, you've been busy huh? So I have a question for you. Do you think, even the worst person could change, that everybody can be a good person if they just try?"

The protagonist continued to move forward uncontrollably, just like facing Papyrus.

"Hehehehehe....alright."

"Well, Here's a better question, do you want to have a bad time? Cause if you take another step forward...

...You are REALLY not going to like what happens next."

Sans gave a warning, but the protagonist continued forward.

Just like that firm determination.

"Looks like it's time to face Sans, will he be the same kind of opponent as Undyne?"

Undyne had indeed left a smidgen of indelible heroic image in Mobius's mind. Although she was pitifully stupid to sacrifice her own power, that kind of spirit was still worthy of respect and admiration.

Just like the MANTIS soldiers the Fire Moth whon unhesitatingly sacrificied their lives for more chances of salvation.

[Lazy Tree Lover: I've seen the successor, she's a very lively kid, she asked me to give a message to Mobius playing the genocide route. 'Have fun good luck']

"Does it mean have fun and good luck to me? Then I have to see what Sans is really up to."

After a brief mourning for Toriel, Sans's interface directly entered the battle phase.

"It's a beautiful day outside, birds are singing, flowers are blooming, on days like these a day... Kids like you..."

A gust of wind, a chirping of birds, as if the surroundings became beautiful and peaceful.

"Should be burning in hell."

"Eh?"

Sans directly took the initiative, unexpectedly making the first move!

Mobius was caught off guard, as countless bones attacked from all directions, followed by four bone cannons appearing, pale lasers covering the entire screen, leaving only a slight gap.

Damage was judged by flashes of frames, and in just an instant, the character controlled by Mobius suddenly had only 1 HP left!

Fortunately, her reaction was fast enough, leaving behind this last HP...

"Huh, I've always wondered, why people never use their strongest attack first."

The Megalovania BGM sounded, Sans's passionate BGM, elevated Sans's figure infinitely that even Mobius felt that Sans at this very moment was so handsome and compelling.
