Bab 8: Chapter 8: Mobius, The one who did the Genocide Route
Within the Elysian Realm, there was no distinction between day and night, so Cioara relied solely on her own biological clock to know the time for resting.
Therefore, when she felt she should rest, Cioara lay down in the resting room and fell asleep.
Tonight, Kalpas was unusually quiet, which was a good thing. It seemed that since Elysia's arrival, Cioara felt that her sleep quality had improved significantly.
However, during her dreams, she saw Toriel's furry and lifeless form, which left Cioara feeling uneasy and frustrated.
...
The next day, when she opened her eyes, the first thing she saw was Eden playing games on the computer.
"Good morning, Miss Raven. I was so curious about this game that I played it for a while in advance. I didn't realize it until you woke up."
Hearing Eden's words, Cioara began to wonder who the person behind the game really was. However, Elysia had kept it a secret, and even made Eden play it.
As for the other Flame Chasers?
Forget it! She must just as well run to Kalpas for answers.
The only thing Cioara could be sure of was that this visitor is definitely not from the World Serpent.
But because of this, Cioara's curiosity was even more aroused.
After all, the World Serpent had hidden the Elysian Realm so well, so why did an outsider suddenly appear here? Wiith the ability to infiltrate it to boot?
Looking at the pseudonyms given to the Flame Chasers, it seemed that the other person knew more about the Elysian Realm than herself.
"Have you met the person who made the game?" Cioara decided to ask.
"So far, the visitor seems to be avoiding us intentionally. So the only person who has seen the visitor is Elysia."
"Aren't you worried?"
"Worried about what?"
Cioara was always willing to assume the worst about others. Once she let her guard down, she would be at the end of her rope in the mercenary circle.
And Eden?
She's playing games, indulging in the wine in her hand, there was no hint of worry on her face.
"If the intruder has malicious intent, there are plenty of us who can deal with it. Moreover, if someone can create a game like this, and Kevin has praised it as a game that warms the heart and melts ice, how could they do something so sinister?"
"You really have a good opinion of this game."
"You'll see when you play it."
Because ever since he heard from the creator that there was also a genocide route, Kalpas did not choose to go down the Genocide Route; instead, Mobius seemed to have chosen it out of pure curiosity.
Mobius even started a livestream, hoping someone would comment. Enticing people to come and see the forbidden fruit, and then showing them the Genocide Route in front of them and exposing their hypocrisy. Mobius really felt like she is a good tempter in Eden's garden.
As it turned out, there were indeed many sims watching Mobius's livestream. Sakura was a silent type who didn't comment much. Kevin was also a silent type and didn't comment on Mobius's actions.
As for Su, when he watched the livestream, his brow furrowed slightly, showing that he had some reservations about Mobius's behavior.
And after Kosmo showed his face in the livestream, he never made any comments again.
There was no way around it; the protagonist controlled by Mobius became strange when he entered the Genocide Route. He even disdained solving puzzles and interacted less with the characters inside.
But Eden, who complained slightly about Mobius's behavior, suggested that Mobius should not walk the Genocide Route in the first hour, but she herself became addicted to the game before long, forgetting about Mobius' stream...
Now Eden was on the Pacifist Route and had successfully avoided killing Toriel, and now progressing to the storyline of Undyne.
The interaction between the protagonist and these characters, who were cute and innocent, couldn't help but make people smile.
Previous successors had almost regarded the Flame Chasers as gods to worship, so it was difficult to bring laughter to them.
But this visitor was truly different this time. This game didn't seem very big in terms of data, but its content was truly profound. It was precisely because of this that Cioara felt that the information revealed by this visitor was extremely suspicious.
"Hi, good morning, Miss Raven~"
"Oh, do you always walk so quietly? How did you suddenly appear in front of me?"
Elysia, sensing Cioara waking up, appeared directly in front of Cioara, which startled her, especially when she was pondering how mysterious this elusive visitor really was.
"I thought my beautiful appearance would be sufficient to capture someone's attention. What wonderful thing surpassed my charm and drew Miss Raven's attention?"
"N-nothing, why did you call me here? To urge me to play this game again?"
"Oh my, am I truly perceived as so heartless in your eyes? That truly saddens me~ You don't necessarily have to play games in the Elysian Realm, and I didn't necessarily have to have a reason for coming to you, right?"
Cioara had figured out Elysia's character a bit. She had expected the second strongest vice leader of the Thirteen Flame Chasers to be as serious as Kevin, but Elysia turned out to be so enthusiastic, the complete opposite of Kevin who is so cold on the outside. Even literally.
"Does that mean I can't come just because I want to see you?"
"Of course you can! Of course, but I'm a mercenary, so seeing me will cost you."
Cioara responded with a joke as well. Otherwise, she would have been stuck in Elysia's rhythm, not knowing when to stop getting teased.
Asking for money straight away to make Elysia stop, well assuming the people of the Elysian Realm had money to begin with.
"For you!" Elysia tossed a golden object over.
"Hmm? What's this?" Cioara caught it steadily and saw a small golden badge in her palm.
"It's the badge of the Fire Moth! Although it used to be used as identification, now it's just a memento. How about it?"
"Not bad. So, is there anything I can do for you?"
Cioara always delivered on promises to pay and to do tasks.
"Then praise me properly!"
"Okay, okay, okay!"
...
The routines of Bronie and Cioara were actually similar. After Cioara rested for a while, Bronie also fell asleep. When she woke up, Elysia said she would keep Miss Raven occupied, so there was no need to worry about encountering her suddenly in the Elysian Realm. As for what to do next in the Elysian Realm, it was all up to Bronie. Many livestream rooms appeared in the Elysian Realm, and it seemed that many of the FC's had played all night, with everyone's progress already very far.
Kalpas wasn't entirely a bad person; without any deliberate action, he was merely scolded by Sans in the Judgment Corridor and was still let through.
But Mobius, she was having a blast playing the Genocide Route.
Yes, seeing Kalpas not following the path she had imagined, Mobius felt there must be a Genocide Route.
Since no one else was doing it, why couldn't she? So she started a livestream room called 'Come and see the Genocide Route~'.
Now Mobius was battling with the Undyne, the Undying, and because she was on the Genocide Route, the battle was far more intense than the neutral or Pacist routes. Undyne's killing intent toward the protagonist was real, so she didn't hold back in the battle, causing Mobius to suffer quite a bit. After playing multiple times, she finally managed to eliminate the female hero.
To be honest, Mobius saw too much of the shadows of the Fire Moth warriors in Undyne. Those heroes were also brave enough to sacrifice themselves, but unfortunately, Undyne had hoped for a miracle to come to her, which most heroes didn't have.
Actually, at this point, Mobius's mentality had changed a bit, and she felt an urge to give up the Genocide Route. But this is Mobius, who possess the most tsundere mouth despite not being a tsundere in the Elysian Realm. After Bronie provoked her a bit, Mobius continued her Genocide Route.
At that time, Bronie said this:
Haxxor Bunny: The Genocide Route has come this far, are you afraid you won't be able to beat the boss at the end? Is that why are you hesistating?
What else is there to say? Mobius could only choose to go forward.
After finishing the Genocide Route, she would treat this little bunny well and let her know that rabbits should not provoke snakes!
But every plot in the Genocide Route made the heroes inevitably think of the past they didn't want to face, and to be honest, this feeling was quite terrible. In the face of the Honkai, too many people behaved like the Undyne, and too many were gentle like Toriel. But in the end, they all vanished. Not a single one left.
And Bronie also stepped into the Elysian Realm again.
"May the road you travel be illuminated by shining stars, may the footsteps you leave behind bloom with a hundred flowers. You are a gift from God, making the world magnificent because of you."
After a moment of daze, when Bronie opened her eyes, Elysia was standing there. But wasn't Elysia with Ciaoara?
"Elysia?" The Elysia in front of her seemed a bit absent-minded.
"Cough, cough, next is a message from the cute girl is like a blooming flower! Because I promised to help you keep Miss Raven busy, I can't take on the role of a guide at the same time! But if you have any doubts, perhaps you can find a squint-eyed guy in the Elysian Realm. He'll be very eager to show you the way!"
Elysia was still as lively as ever. If Bronie didn't know about her past, didn't know about the Honkai Impact 3rd, Bronie would have felt very happy.
But now? Every time she saw Elysia smile, it felt like a stab to her heart.
Luckily, she could still change the outcome. Just as Bronie was exploring and searching for a way, a pink flower-shaped seal turned into a light spot and merged into her chest.
Subconsciously, she touched her chest, still feeling a bit of residue, but there was nothing.
"Oh right, this is the 'Ego' Signet. Have you heard of a saying? Under pressure, one's choices reveal their true self, their ego. Thus it will determine what kind of person they ultimately become.
In my life so far, I have made one choice after another, they are like segmented nodes, forever engraved in my brilliant life, shining brightly. This is my signet, the core of Elysia's soul, my proof of identity~ Actually, revealing one's true self to others can be quite embarrassing, isn't it?"
Elysia handed the signet to Bronie.
This was a symbol of recognition from the Flame Chasers and also the greatest reward that successors in the Elysian Realm could obtain.
These were experiences in life, and they might also be the results of making choices when facing certain problems, but more likely they were about the battle experience when facing the Honkai.
These cognitions and memories gradually influenced the successors, ultimately achieving the final goal of the Elysian Realm.
To let visitors complete their transformation and further growth.
"So, this isn't just a recording?" Bronie asked in confusion.
"Oh my, is diverting the topic your way of comforting a girl?"
"So... you admit it then?"
"As a sim, multitasking is very easy, and after Miss Raven calms down, I have many opportunities to secretly talk to you. Although I'm just a projection now, as long as there are questions, I can answer them!"
"Then where's the exit?"
She is about to challenge the Elysian Realm. She could leave at any time, and she could also fulfilling her promise to Elysia, right?
"To find the exit, you have to pass through eight portal gates. There may be monsters or puzzles based on your cognition along the way, but it's okay, even if you die, you can start over. So relax and move forward, okay?"
Not far away, there was something like a portal similar to the gate to the Elysian Realm.
The surroundings were filled with an unreal feeling, and she probably had completely entered the Elysian Realm, where everything she saw and touched was data.
"And one more thing!" Elysia reminded Bronie when she seemed to want to do something.
"Hmm?"
"Try not to cheat too much. If it's for self-preservation, there's no problem, but if you want to disrupt the programming and origin code of the Elysian Realm, it will definitely trigger its security defense mechanism."
"Heh, as a hacker, these are things we can never escape anyway. Facing this kind of challenge is more exciting, it's time to show you my little bunnies!"
With that, Bronie projected her weapons. A brand new pink submachine gun appeared in her hand, the familiar weight making Bronie excited again.
Then she projected a panel, like 3D printing, and a drone was created out of thin air and floated.
"Wow, so cool~"
"But this can also be considered based on my personal cognition, a false creation from my mind, right?"
Then Bronie quickly noticed the problem.
Her behavior didn't trigger the defense mechanism of the Elysian Realm, which seemed even more flexible than she had imagined.
This meant that Bronie couldn't experience the defensive capabilities left behind by the previous era.
"But on this land, this is reality. Its functions, appearance, core, and reality, there is almost no difference at all."
This fact involves philosophical and cognitive issues.
But Bronie agreed with Elysia's words very much.
After all, if she didnt agree, the idea saving the sims in the Elysian Realm wont be in her mind in the first place..
The Flame Chasers in the real world created their sims, another branch of obtaining a completely different form of existence, a brand new life experience. For them who experienced such horrors. This beauty should not be broken
.
"So, is Haxxor Bunny ready to go? Is there anything else to say?"
"No!"
"That's great."

Bab 9: Chapter 9: Bronie Is Challenging the Elysian Realm
For Bronie, battles often occurred after a deal, when the other party underestimated their strength and thought of backstabbing another.
In Cyber Arc City, where cyborgs roamed, martial arts flourished, and gangs thrived; Wearing a jacket and shorts, with a hood on, the seemingly weak Bronie was indeed the easiest target for predators.
But little did they know, it was just Bronie's tactic, as she loved taking advantage of others for their carelessness. However, as rule, she never initiated violence.
In the industry of hackers and mercenaries, it was considered self-defense. As Bronie's battles increased, her reputation grew, and the number of beneficial confrontations decreased.
This annoyed Bronie a lot, who wanted to rob people.
Luckily, during the backstabbing process, Bronie honed her skills, and now, she was about to use them against the Honkai beasts.
Although Elysia said anything was possible in the Elysian Realm and proceed with caution, could she ignore these Honkai beasts in front of her?
After stepping into the portal, Elysia cautiously followed behind Bronie. If anything went wrong, she was ready to lend a hand.
But seeing Bronie's determined gaze, Elysia realized she had underestimated her.
Travelers from the Sea of Quanta, the hacker
who said she could modify reality, Elysia now fully understood why Bronie said it.
As time passed, Bronie would create more and more drones, harass with her electric assault rifle, and delay the actions of the Honkai beasts with temporal rupture bombs.
Then countless drones would bombard them all together, finally finishing off the enemies.
"Facing Honkai beasts and Zombies for the first time, I wonder how they compare to the monsters in reality. Fortunately, my combat skills are decent."
Wiping away nonexistent sweat, Bronie dematerialized all the drones and equipment she projected.
"You did great, and even exceeded my expectations!" Elysia praised.
"If it's just these monsters, they're much simpler compared to the ones in the Sea of Quanta," Bronie replied.
Facing monsters with quantum attributes caused her endless trouble. Luckily, she had high-explosive grenades to trigger temporal ruptures, which somehow made the quantum shadows collapse.
"It seems there will be even stranger monsters in the Elysian Realm. If they look good, I'll definitely keep them! I'll mark them in the monster guide as 'Haxxor Bunny's prey'!"
But weren't the some creatures here have quantum attributes? If there were too many, Bronie would prioritize fleeing.
So, when Elysia mentioned it, Bronie felt a bit embarrassed.
...
"Welcome, visitor Bronie."
"Hmm? Is this foreseeing the future?"
Coming to her senses, Bronie noticed an ancient Bodhi tree not far away, and below it was Su, one of the Thirteen Flame Chasers, leaning against it.
"Not exactly, but as you entered the Elysian Realm, you became part of its collective consciousness. Nice to meet you. I'm Su, the seventh of the Flame Chasers, also known as Lazy Tree Lover."
"Huh?"
Bronie was surprised. Wasn't Lazy Tree Lover not his nickname?
"Haha, you've given me a vivid nickname that I quite like. But my real name is Su, just call me that."
"So, what brings you here, Mr. Su?"
"Visitor, you seek excitement. In the Elysian Realm, you'll find what you seek, but you must delve deep. This Bodhi leaf can guide you, showing the path of the enlightened among thousands of destinies."
The Signet of Bodhi was almost given for free. Whenever Su met someone, he gave them the Signet easily.
But when the imprint merged into Bronie's body, she felt a bit dizzy.
"My head is itchy. Am I growing a brain?"
"....You truly are a legendary visitor. I look forward to seeing what path your interesting soul will take."
"Then I'll make sure to broaden your horizons. The adventures I'm about to embark on will be thrilling and exciting."
Aside from future space travel on Honkai Star Rail, dealing with the Honkai was also part of her current journey.
Seeing Bronie's confident demeanor, Su responded with a friendly smile.
"May your path be smooth."
Su gave a sincere blessing while still leaning against the Bodhi tree.
"Do you mind if I set up a broadcasting room in the Elysian Realm? Or maybe expand and upgrade the hardware facilities a bit?" Bronie asked, making Su hesitate.
"This matter is significant. If Kevin and Elysia agree, I won't object."
For the Sims, 50,000 years of stagnation was just a moment. They could even pause their own existence and skip through time.
So, while many Flame Chasers had thought about changing the Elysian Realm, none had acted on it. Now, with a new visitor proposing such changes, Su chose not to decide.
Time would provide the answer, and the wheel of karma would eventually reveal the future path.
"Let nature take its course," was Su's life motto.
Meeting all those in need on the road and offering help was something Su was used to. Su would accept the outcome, even if efforts didn't change the ending.
"Well, then, feel free to anticipate. I'll create more games for everyone to play. When curiosity about the outside world arises, feel free to ask me." Bronie's playful and confident demeanor made Su smile knowingly.
However, observing Bronie's combat stance, Su sensed something amiss. Creating weapons out of thin air, launching wide-range bombings, even altering the enemy's data to weaken them. Wasn't Bronie claiming to be a hacker who could alter reality? Wasn't this ability a bit too extraordinary?
Even under the influence of Honkai energy or other forces, a human's grasp of special abilities was limited. Even before becoming a MANTIS, Aponia's perception of fate was vague. What about Bronie?
With ease, Bronie created precise components, missiles with auto-guidance, drones with identification systems. Frankly, Su couldn't help but think of Bronie as the Herrscher of Reason. But if she truly were one, the Elysian Realm's defense systems would have reacted long ago. So, wasn't this intriguing?
Claiming to be a traveler from the Sea of Quanta, temporarily residing in this world, and being fully aware of the deeds of the Flame Chasers in the Elysian Realm, Was she brought here by someone from the outside via Project Veluka?
It was something to ponder...
...
Next, in the Elysian Realm, monsters based on Bronie's cognition began to appear gradually. Quantum attribute monsters had caused Bronie trouble, but the next ones confused her.
Even though they hadn't reached the boss level yet, Bronie saw a quantum boss named Tonatiuh, Shadow of the Sun, a creature she knew existed in the underground laboratory of the Heliopolis Life Sciences in World Serpent.
And it was one of those artificially created monsters! Why did it suddenly appear in the Elysian Realm?
"Oh! Are these monsters you've encountered before, Bronie? They seem like powerful creatures ruling over a realm in the Sea of Quanta!" Elysia was slightly surprised. These monsters unexpectedly looked quite cool. She couldn't imagine the perilous journey Bronie must have gone through.
As for Bronie, she was in a state of stress. Who cared about the details now?
She activated her projection ability to its maximum capacity, projecting numerous light blue spears.
These are high-energy plasma spears crafted using Brownie's recollection of the Herrscher of Truth, combined with the technology developed by Cyber Arc City, who never ceased to gaze at the stars even while confined in a cage.
"Fire-"
The ice-cold light blue color represented extreme heat as they all fired, a volley of lasers bombarded the Tonatiuh towards the wall illuminating the area with blue hue.
The onslaught that covered the sky and earth was one of the killer moves hidden beneath Bronie's abilities.
With her slender body and weak arms and legs, how could Bronie have the ability to block and counter the current Tonatiuh?
So Bronie decided to go all out and stimulate the guy in the Elysian Realm who was trying to read her innermost thoughts a bit.
Yes, after a brief moment of shock, Bronie's clever intellect once again occupied the high ground, simultaneously realizing that someone was reading her memories in the Elysian Realm.
Reading memories was one thing, but well, shouldn't th discuss this kind of thing properly?
A provoked bunny is one that will bite!
"Oh my! Why did you suddenly use so much force! This is bad, the Elysian Realm has been punched with a big hole. Bronie, what happened?"
Elysia was also taken aback. This attack directly pierced through the floor as well as the nearby wall, destroying the surrounding environment, and the so-called Tonatiuh was probably long gone by now.
"Because these things are prone to sudden movements and like to teleport near you for close combat. Since I'm not good at close combat, I took advantage of the fact that the other party hadn't reacted yet and just ended them all in one go."
"What a passionate light, seems even fiercer than a Kalpas! I never expected Bronie to harbor such passionate power within!"
"Even if you praise me like that, I won't get angry!"
Although it didn't seem like something Elysia would do, Bronie was still a little annoyed.
Of course, upon hearing Bronie's words, Elysia naturally realized why Bronie was upset.
"It's a misunderstanding. Actually, it's not that the Elysian Realm is deliberately reading your memories, but while observing the Elysian Realm, the brain involuntarily makes certain associations. These cognitive associations are then read by the Elysian Realm and ultimately become part of the Elysian Realm's trials."
Bronie didn't know whether to believe her own words, but Elysia felt it necessary to explain clearly.
"Is, is that so? I'm sorry I overreacted... because everyone has secrets that are untouchable, right?"
"Yes, that's right~"
At this moment, Elysia looked through the hole made by Bronie.
"Oh no!"
Suddenly, Elysia exclaimed, seeming to have seen something extraordinary from the other end of the hole.
"What's wrong?"
Bronie also leaned over.
Then he saw the silhouette of a man.
Flames, high temperature, and the suppressed fury were all in that silhouette, Bronie suddenly had a feeling that something big was about to happen.
How could a casual blast accidentally injure a Kalpas out of nowhere?
How!?
"Oh? A visitor?"
The white-haired man wearing a mask, with the remnants of Tonatiuh's quantum body at his feet, its data crushed against Kalpas' sole due to data overflow. Even the laptop placed in front of the Kalpas' thighs was smashed to pieces.
"You, hello, I'm Bronie, what should I call you..."
"Your name doesn't matter! And I won't remember the name of a dying person!"
Bronie's expression was serious as she quickly raised the submachine gun in her hand.
But at this moment, Elysia stood in front of Bronie, blocking Kalpas with her body.
"Hey, Kalpass, don't be so angry. You should be more tolerant of children, okay?"
"Children?"
Only at this moment did Kalpas turn around.
Seeing the dual turbo drills behind Bronie's hood, he also stared at her in silence for a long time.
Finally, he spoke.
"Go away, don't bother me."
"I can't just ignore that. I, am Bronie. As the strongest hacker in Cyber Arc City, i have never been afraid of anyone. Moreover, Bronie is definitely not a child. All the big bad wolves who underestimate the Haxxor Bunny will be eaten by the Bunny."
Mainly, Bronie was thinking that since he had come, in which the plan to move the entire Elysian Realm naturally included Kalpas.
If you want to gain Kalpas' approval?
The best way to do so is to fight him. As long as you beat him, you can get the Signet regardless of the outcome.
Maybe she wouldn't need the signet in the future, but the power of the signet couldn't be lacking.
At least, that's how Bronie felt.
Moreover, Bronie was actually quite concerned about her own physique. Since the other party saw him as a child, he had to show off his skills to make him realize that she was not a child!
So, Bronie challenged Kalpas!
