It's a bit hard to articulate.
Although Bronie genuinely liked Elysia and knew everything about her, she still concealed a part of herself related to Elysia.
So the words of confession were always difficult to say.
Elysia sensed it, but she simply waited silently, while Bronie decided to temporarily leave the Elysian Realm, wait for the Honkai to end, wait for Elysia's revival, and then express her feelings.
At this point, this way of getting along was sufficient, and Bronie was quite content.
...
Over the fifty thousand years, having been in constant contact with Fenghuang Down, Fu Hua's body had already started to resemble Fenghuang Down's.
So during the treatment, Bronie also mentioned that Fu Hua was the best candidate for becoming the Herrscher of Sentience in this civilization.
If Fenghuang Down were used to transfer Fu Hua's consciousness, the empty shell left behind could perhaps be used to control the descent of the Herrschers, while Fu Hua's memories over fifty thousand years would directly scramble the Herrschers' minds, and with appropriate guidance later on, could render them harmless.
Initially, Mobius wanted to ridicule Bronie, saying that this was all just wishful thinking, but later Bronie mentioned that the first Herrscher and the second Herrscher were exactly the same as the Herrschers of the previous era, so when the third Herrscher was born, they should prepare Fu Hua's body.
Mobius fell briefly silent and then believed Bronie's words.
After asking Su later on, Mobius learned that this time's birth of the Herrscher might have some differences, but it was indeed similar to the previous era's civilization, which was a cheat method designed by the previous era to fight the Honkai.
As for how it was done, Su said they would know once Mobius was revived; he didn't know the specific principles, only that it was related to Pardo's sacrifice during the final fight.
In order to find the truth, Mobius worked even harder than Bronie, and Elysia, very tactfully, didn't disturb her. Unfortunately, Shamash ELF still hadn't found an opportunity to refuse work.
...
"Sister Bronie, the plot for the first season of Guilty Gear is all set, and the game is almost ready for release. Why haven't you come back yet?"
Bronya, who was far away in the orphanage, put down her work and lay on Bronie's bed.
It had been almost a month, and the scent on Sister Bronie's bed was gradually fading, which was very unfortunate.
But Sister Bronie must have more important things to do, so Bronya should be sensible and not disturb her.
After staying in the orphanage for so long, Bronya gradually realized what Sister Bronie's identity as a traveler of the Sea of Quanta really meant.
In other words, in the not-too-distant future...
Sister Bronie might leave this world!
"Everyone, I'm back!"
Bronie's voice suddenly appeared, and Bronya abruptly sat up.
Looking at Sister Bronie's messy room, Bronya quickly began to tidy up.
"Oh, busy girl, what have you been up to lately?"
Cioara came out first upon hearing Bronie's voice.
Although Cioara had also grown a bit, it was not as obvious as Bronie's.
Seeing Bronie again, Cioara couldn't help but sigh, what had she been eating to grow up like this?
"The Flamechaser of the previous civilization, Mr. Su, has returned to the Elysian Realm for treatment, and the Flamechaser of the previous civilization, Hua, has also returned to the Elysian Realm for treatment. Then there are some experiments that you may not understand, and the Elysian Realm and Schicksal have formed a technological alliance, creating an atmosphere of joint research."
"Oh? Such a big deal? Why haven't I heard about it in the World Serpent?"
Cioara didn't really doubt Bronie's words, but she felt it was a bit unbelievable.
The Elysian Realm was bypassing the World Serpent to do things now, didn't they know that the World Serpent was most loyal to the Flamechasers!
"Considering that the World Serpent is an important organization for Kevin to execute Project Stigma, if they took it directly, Project Stigma might indeed not be able to run smoothly. You shouldn't put all your eggs in one basket. I'm not sure about resolving Finality, but although Project Stigma is rotten, I am confident about it."
"It's strange, as an internal member of the World Serpent, I don't even know the full picture of Project Stigma, how did you find out?"
"That's because Project Stigma was developed by Mobius herself. If you're willing to ask her, she should give you an answer."
"Forget it, forget it. Mobius is too dangerous; I'd better not provoke her as much as possible. But since you said so, I won't bother telling the others in the World Serpent."
"That's fine too. How have you been lately? Have the children caused you any trouble? Is your eating regular?"
"To be honest, these children are quite lively. I even have the urge to open an orphanage myself, but let's settle down for a while first, or wait until the next major honkai eruption appears before deciding. As for eating and so on, you don't need to..."
Cioara quite enjoys chatting with Bronya about some trivial matters. But just as she was about to slowly answer Bronya's question, the lively children also rushed out excitedly!
"Hehe! Rosalia is the first one here! Sister Bronie, welcome back!"
"Well, I'm back from saving the world. Here's a gift for you."
As she spoke, Bronie projected a pink dress, and Rosalia's face immediately lit up with joy.
Next came Lilia, Seele, and Sin.
Bronie had prepared gifts for all the children in the orphanage, distributing them one by one. Bronie felt a little strange.
"Weird, where's Bronya?"
"Here!"
"Well... Bronya, why are you sweating so much?" Seeing Bronya still panting, Bronie had even more doubts.
"Bronya is training, um, doing basic yoga training. Guilty Gear has been completed, and now we're waiting for Sister Bronie to prepare for the release. What new game does Sister plan to make next?"
"Horror game!"
"Ah?"
Bronya was slightly shocked.
"After the horror game, it will be a puzzle game, and then we'll see."
Bronie's plans were quite far-reaching, and even when she had nothing to do, she would work on setting up the plot.
"The plot of Guilty Gear can last for a long time, but that's not important. What's important is the updates for the subsequent characters, which will be handled by the company. Four DLC characters every year, and then hiring someone to handle the data for balancing. This plan can last for about two years."
"What about the characters to be released next? Why do they have little to do with the first season's plot? Where's Dizzy? Jam? Slayer?"
"Don't worry, simpler characters should be released first, and the more complex ones later."
Bronie reassured Bronya, and Bronya began to flip through the subsequent project plans.
She started walking towards Bronie's office skillfully.
"Cioara, I'll leave today's dinner to you. Let me rest for a few days. Perhaps before long, there will be a lord named Su appearing within the World Serpent."
"Ah!?"
Cioara was puzzled, but watching Bronie take Bronya upstairs, she felt helpless.
She came back just to make games?
Really, she was all grown up, but why did she still act like a child?
Cioara sighed, but she still went to the kitchen to prepare dinner.
Thinking about the new bow that Bronie gave her, Cioara felt a bit itchy, wondering what kind of functions the bow had.
Although Guilty Gear was ready for release, Bronie wouldn't be the one to handle it.
After all, even the marketing and sales would have to be done by herself. Then what was her company for?
Since she was already making games, marketing and such were obviously not her responsibility.
Next, Bronya and Bronie would discuss the next game.
They said it was a horror game, but true horror games should be those where the protagonist is helpless and can only run away, where they encounter various supernatural creatures and settings, leaving players sweating profusely.
But Bronie doesn't like making these types of games.
How could she make a game without playing it herself?
Without playing, many glitches and details would be missed, but Bronie didn't really like horror games without firepower.
All fear did not stem from the unknown, but from insufficient firepower.
Bronie always remembered this.
"Hmm, Sister Bronie, I didn't expect you to actually plan to make a horror game. Evil Within... feels like it might be a bit bloody."
Just from the concept cover image, seeing a man screaming with all his might, his face being held down by razor blades, gave off a feeling of madness.
"Strictly speaking, this game isn't really a horror game, but more of a thriller game. After all, you can get weapons later in the game, and ghosts and monsters can be destroyed."
This game focused more on resource management, so each action required careful consideration, but low difficulty wouldn't require much thought.
Overall, it was more similar to Resident Evil 7.
Bronya flipped through the setting and project documents several times, barely piecing together an outline in her mind.
"If it's a shoot-and-run game like this, Bronya thinks there are already many similar games on the market."
Indeed, now that Schicksal has released the game engine, naturally, many people want to make more powerful games.
Such as brand-new open-world shooting games, or more sci-fi adventure games.
Of course, because there are Honkai Outbreaks in this world, Schicksal will also make some games like zombie crises.
So when the Honkai comes, ordinary people may turn into Zombies directly, but some people can still survive. Knowing about games with themes like zombie crises can always teach them a bit about survival.
So in Bronie's eyes, this kind of shooting game similar to zombie themes isn't particularly novel.
"The theme isn't important, the key is that it's fun to play. Sometimes, you can't solve problems even with guns. Only by summoning courage can you break through despair. If the Herrscher doesn't descend according to the original plan, then at a certain point in time countless people will inevitably be trapped in the realm of consciousness. So this game might also give some guidance."
The Herrscher...?
Bronya didn't expect that the story of a game could barely become a kind of beacon for some special events, guiding players to find solutions to problems.
And the arrival of the Herrscher has been arranged, then aren't the preceding Herrschers completely arranged as well?
Could the birth of the Herrscher also be arranged?
This information shocked Bronya. She always felt like Sister Bronie had done something super out of line.
"Well, as long as Sister Bronie is happy. The art may be a bit gory, which may not be suitable for everyone to play."
Bronya didn't care much about the Evil Within, but for the other children in the orphanage, as long as Bronie released a new game, they would definitely want to play it.
But after playing, they might have nightmares at night.
But Bronya also thought that she could give it to Sin to play, maybe she could scare her to tears?
Bronya liked to tease Sin a little bit, feeling the satisfaction of retaliating against her when she wanted to retaliate but couldn't win.
"Only for ages 16 and above can play, this rating is enough to stop everyone."
Hearing Bronie say this, Bronya suddenly felt unhappy.
Yes, Bronya wasn't even sixteen yet, so her helping to make the game but not being able to play?
Where's the justice!
"Okay, children aged 13 and above need to watch with their parents."
"But Bronya is not even thirteen yet~"
"Come to my office and play by yourself later."
Bronie trusted Bronya quite a bit, so she naturally didn't worry that this game would have a bad influence on Bronya.
"Hehe~"
Bronya looked happy, as if she had succeeded in some plot.
But Bronie who was sitting on the office chair, didn't turn on the computer, but lay on the chair like a salted fish.
She appeared to be very exhausted.
Bronya also noticed this, so she asked, "Sister Bronie, what have you been doing outside? Why do you look so tired?"
"Same as usual, looking for ways to fight against the Honkai, and also methods to revive people from the past. Although the experiments have made some progress, the idea of truly resurrecting people seems distant. The Honkai is imminent, and Mobius and Vill-V want to use the complete power of the Herrscher to achieve these things."
"Well, when Bronya grows up, she will definitely help Sister Bronie fight against the Honkai!"
"You haven't even grown up yet, and it's still a long way off! And letting children fight against the Honkai is not applicable, shouldn't the adults be the ones to take the lead? You guys are responsible for growing up, and I'm responsible for creating space for you to grow. That's how it's always been."
"Yes... that's how it's always been, but because of this, Bronya feels unhappy. Bronya has the ability to stand up and fight, Bronya also wants to protect her family, Bronya thinks she has the ability now, and also, Sister Bronie, Bronya's giant robot, when will it be made?"
"It's in progress, it's in progress, don't rush! Let's release the new game first!"

Both Haxxor Bunny's game company and the players have long been accustomed to the casual attitude towards the release of Haxxor Bunny's games.
It's more accurate to say that this time, Haxxor Bunny's release of a new game actually came with a preview several months in advance!
Such a thing is really very rare.
With the anime-like graphics of 3D rendering combined with cool and refreshing combat special effects, a wave of fighting fervor has also swept through the internet.
Coupled with Schicksal announcing that they will hold a fighting game competition in the future, with a total prize pool of up to one million US dollars!
What's the concept of one million? It could kill so many people even with rat poison!
So, for the sake of this one million, many players have flocked to it. And this fighting game sold one hundred thousand copies on the first day alone!
The servers were full, and there were also many streamers playing on live platforms, of course, driving the gaming peripheral industry as well.
Welt, who was completely unaware of Otto, Bronie and the Scientists of Elysian Realm going about with the Imaginary Tree experiments, also bought it without hesitation after seeing the fighting game released.
He wasn't particularly interested in things like prizes anyway. He also knew that this fighting game would test the player's patience, requiring a lot of time for tedious training.
Mainly, it was because of Haxxor Bunny's prestigious name. He really wanted to know what kind of game Haxxor Bunny had to make to be considered interesting in Bronie's eyes.
As a result, when he opened SBEAM, there was a whopping 80GB of downloadable content, leaving Welt speechless with surprise.
Fortunately, it was morning now, and he had to go to class in a while. The computer in the employee dormitory was still on, so he could just play it when he got back at night!
After finally enduring today, when Welt opened the game, he saw something called "Story Mode."
A story mode in a fighting game!?
Welt was curious to see what tricks this story mode had up its sleeve.
After all, the stories made by Haxxor Bunny were top-notch.
Every time the plot matched the visuals, there was an inexplicable feeling of "this is a work of art!"
To be honest, Welt even wanted to ask Bronie to collaborate with Homu Entertainment as a screenwriter and AAnti Entropy to produce a brand-new series of Alahato animations.
Welt could feel that Bronie was also very fond of giant robots.
But now that things had come to this, it was better not to think too much about those issues.
Let's watch the game's plot first, and then play the game.
As for the plot mode of the fighting game, if things went as expected, it would definitely be the kind where there's combat while the plot unfolds, and then it's all over in a simple and straightforward manner.
The background of the Guilty Gear game is set in a world that diverged after the end of World War II.
Originally, the world would have developed according to its intended rules, but in ancient times, a human who was called 'The Original' discovered a world called the "Backyard," which contained information and rules about all things in the world.
In this world, all rules were included, and using the information from this world, reality could be easily rewritten.
It was like magic.
In order to better utilize that world, the sage created an intelligent AI named 'Universal Will', setting it to guide humans to happiness and to ensure that this happiness would last forever.
However, during the long process of self-learning, the AI began to doubt the definition of humanity and even started to speculate about the future of humanity.
The result was that when humans developed to a certain extent, after all dreams were realized and everything was within reach, they lost happiness.
As all philosophy cannot escape nihilism, the AI's calculations seemed to have some strange problems, such as when everything developed to the point where everything was meaningless and humans could not feel "happiness" in anything, would its mission be considered successful?
Obviously, since The Original set it that it couldn't harm humans, under such extreme conflict, the AI malfunctioned!
The malfunctioning AI began to try to create its own definition of humanity and used that part of humanity to achieve its mission of completion.
The Original noticed this, but it seemed that there was no way to stop it. So, The Original's disciples stood up and prepared different strategies against the AI's attempt to destroy humanity.
One chose to restrict the development of human technology, to keep humans as the AI defined them, to keep humans constantly seeking happiness, and after World War II, they established a hidden special organization called the Senate.
Of course, the other disciple chose to spread the magic that the sage had mastered, and through ether energy, developed a whole new path. And using this power, they created biological weapons called Gears to thoroughly eliminate this AI in the future "Backyard" world!
It's just that the Gears were controlled by the AI, and in World War II gave birth to the First Herrscher, while the Millennium gave birth to the Second Herrscher.
The birth setting of the Gear Cell in 2016 seemed to be implying something, and Welt, who was sensitive, noticed this point, but the subsequent story completely departed from the original world background.
Ether magic, changing reality, could even remodel cells?
Welt still remembered Bronie claiming her ability was actually a special effect edited out through some kind of control over ether.
Each character had their own arcade mode and storyline, but the main story mode was driven by the characters Sol and Ky.
After staying up all night to finish the story mode, Welt found out that the story mode didn't involve any fighting at all!
That's right, the entire story mode was purely animation, rendered as 2D style from 3D models, presented as cartoons to the players!
If calculated by time, one episode was about twenty minutes, and if there were twelve episodes in a season, there would probably be content for two seasons of the plot.
When he finally realized it, Welt found out that he had actually spent the whole night watching the plot!
The story was somewhat king-like, with blood, tears, and a lot of exploration of the meaning of life, as well as some uplifting plots.
But watching all this, Welt was also filled with excitement and couldn't help but want to share it with others, and then immediately play the game, compare it with others, fight through that so-called magic, and recreate those scenes from the plot.
But now it was late, and just because of this plot mode, he didn't even get to play the game.
Was this fair?
Welt also felt a bit mentally exhausted.
Putting anime production into the game, Only Bronie can think of this!
There was also a lot of discussion online.
"Did you just buy anime to get the game for free?"
"Why are there so many characters in the plot? How can you resist releasing only fifteen characters on the first release? I can imagine how many DLC characters there will be later."
"Why isn't Nagoriyuki in the plot? When will the new plot come out?"
"Where is Elphelt! I want to play Elphelt and Dizzy!"
"I got crushed by the Dolphin, got stunned by Millia, got cried on by Ky, why are all the characters so sticks to me so much!"
"Seriously, playing Nagoriyuki, no matter how much you win, it's fake. They are everwhere! it's really a super-performance freak!"
"The plot is over, but I haven't played the game, this game is really cool!"
"As an experienced fighting game player, every time I enter the beginner tutorial, I learn something new, never skip the beginner tutorial!"
----
"Sister Bronie! This time, Bronya will definitely defeat you!"
After the game was released, the response was pretty good, and quite a few novice players bought this fighting game.
Of course, some players recorded all the plot modes and posted them online.
Bronie didn't refuse this behavior, after all, there were still many players who didn't dare to buy the fighting game because of it, and the essence of this plot was also used by Bronie to attract casual players.
So as long as this video wasn't monetized, Bronie wouldn't refuse to put the plot on the internet.
But some people complained that Bronie was neglecting her main job and actually making animations.
Putting down her phone, Bronie temporarily didn't plan to read any comments about Guilty Gear, but instead looked at Bronya.
"Recently, Kalpas has been looking for me about challenging me in Guilty Gear, and Homu Entertainment wants to collaborate with me to make animations. Next, I have to plan the production of Evil Within. I'm really too busy!"
"Oh... alright... then best of three?"
"Let's play a ten-game match, as long as I win ten games, it's over, but this time, I won't go easy on you~"
Bronie chose May, the character who uses dolphins, while Bronya locked in Leo.
"It seems like you've completely researched the characters?"
"That's right, Bronya found that in terms of boxing and standing recovery, Leo has a great advantage over May."
"But there's one thing you forgot, and that is, in the face of absolute strength, this slight advantage in boxing and standing recovery cannot determine the outcome of the match!"
The game started directly!
Although Bronya's choice was indeed not wrong and made the match easier, Bronie always managed to seize the opportunity to launch a big wave.
Although familiar with Bronie's boxing, this time Bronie used a completely new set of tricks, making Bronya feel uncomfortable all over.
[Hahaha! Ahaha, what does Aha see! A new game! And it's a fighting game! Ahaha, Aha wants to play with Bronie! Ahaha,Aha wants to play with Bronie!]
"Want to play? You have to wait until I finish playing with Bronya first."
"Ah? Sis Bronie, who are you talking to?"
Hearing Bronie suddenly speak, Bronya was also startled.
"It's nothing, it's the Aeon of Elation Aha, let's finish the game first."
This time Bronie used many new moves, and by using different rhythms of dolphin attacks, she directly bypassed the standing recovery move.
In addition, Bronie was not very familiar with these new moves, and as a result, she made several mistakes in succession, losing more and more.
Although occasionally there were chances to take down one life, the key to victory in one game lay in two out of three.
Winning once doesn't mean anything.
But...
Aeon of Elation?
Nothing?
Was Sis Bronie okay!?
This is called nothing?
Bronya's mentality was slightly affected, and her operation gradually became erratic.
The result was a solid 3-0.
Bronie also put down the controller helplessly.
"Although the character selection is indeed very good, if you want to say that standing recovery is really powerful, the Ninja is the best option. As long as you don't get hit, there's no damage, and as long as you suppress hard enough, there's no need to worry about being hit."
This fighting game, Guilty Gear, had such a radical style.
Bronya nodded, taking Bronie's advice.
Then Bronie said, "Bring the chair over there, and let the Aeon sit, so, Lord of Elation, please take a seat?"
Bronya clumsily brought the chair over, placed it beside Bronie, and then made room and sat obediently aside.
Suddenly feeling a little dry in her eyes, Bronya rubbed her eyes, and when she opened them again, she suddenly saw a figure that had appeared out of nowhere.
The figure was entirely black, with a red smiling mask on its face.
"Would you like something to drink? Coke or tea?"
"Of course it's Coke! Coke is the legendary otaku happy water, so of course the Aeon of Elation should drink a happy drink!"
Bronie gave Bronya a wink, and Bronya understood, quickly leaving the office.
Then The Elation slowly picked up the controller.
"Hehe, why hide this character so deeply? Aha wants to play this one!"
Then something, or someone appeared in the character selection screen, someone who isn't supposed to be in the game yet!
This was the third character in the DLC plan for the first quarter!
Happy Chaos.
A character who plays with pistols, in the game background, is the man called 'The Original' who discovered the 'Backyard' world.
At the same time, he is also the core character of the game's plot for the next quarter.
But Bronie hadn't finished this character yet, so how did it suddenly appear in the game?
"Alright, alright, is it ten or twenty?"
"Of course it's thirty!"
If it's thirty, it's probably going to take a lot of time to play.
And facing the Aeon, using the tricky character Happy!
"Is there a reward for winning?"
"Hehehe, ahaha, Aha won't tell you~ But ahaha, Aha really like this character's image, it looks super fun!"
Beside her, the Aeon slowly transformed, gradually becoming the appearance of Happy.
Even the pistol, and those super stylish sunglasses, were made so realistic.
"So when are you updating the plot?"
"I've already extracted the game data, you still can't get the plot?"
"Cheating to see the plot early is no fun at all, so ahaha, Aha has to wait for you to make it!"
Wow, they are like urging for more updates...
But indeed, in a certain sense, Happy Chaos is quite similar to Aha.
There are also some overlaps in the lore.
"If I lose, I'll start making it immediately, and if I win, when to make it will be up to me!"
"A bit interesting, want to gamble with Aha? Hehehe, then Aha has to play with you seriously!"
