Honkai, the behind-the-scenes simulator

[There is a stalemate between you and the flame-chasing moth. 】

[Actually, because of your ambiguous attitude on the issue of fighting against the collapse, the relationship between you and the fire moth and even the various human forces behind it is quite complicated. 】

[Flame Chasing Moth needs to reach a deal with you in order to fight against Honkai, relying on the research results of your research institute. 】

【But at the same time, I can't figure out your attitude, and I have doubts about you. 】

[Especially when the research results exposed in your research institute are considered to be able to play a great role in fighting against the collapse of the cause and human civilization, the relationship between the two sides seems to become more and more tense. 】

[Of course, as the power in your research institute, or the "masquerade party" in other words, becomes more and more revealed, this tense relationship begins to ease. 】

[The Herrschers born in the Great Crash were basically handled by the "Masquerade Ball" these few times. 】

[And those small Honkai incidents that require more manpower, seem to be smaller in scale, but are not inferior to the threat to human civilization as a whole, are more dependent on the flame-chasing moths. 】

[It seems that there is competition but there is cooperation, it seems that they are opposing each other but there is relaxation. This is the rather complicated relationship between "Masquerade Ball" and Flame Chasing Moth. 】

【But now, if your actions continue...】

[Then, considering the worst case scenario, human beings may completely lose hope of fighting against the collapse. 】

[Even if it is not destroyed by the collapse, human civilization will be difficult to maintain. 】

[Among the Flame Chasing Moths, many people are really considering treating you as an enemy, as an enemy of civilization like the Herrscher who poses a huge threat to human civilization. 】

[After all, the current you have clearly revealed a threat to human civilization. 】

[This kind of threat is not even inferior to Herrscher. 】

[The damage caused by those Herrschers to human beings is a real disaster that can be seen with the naked eye. 】

[The damage you have caused to human civilization is based on soft power, the cohesion and inherent order of human civilization. 】

[This kind of destruction is even more deadly than the Herrscher of Flame who burned the entire Australian continent. 】

[Someone proposed to directly use a large number of nuclear weapons to completely burn you and the entire research institute to the ground. 】

[Of course, this proposal was rejected in the end. 】

[After all, if you rely on firepower to deal a complete blow to your research institute, then the impact on the surrounding areas will also not be small. 】

[Of course, this is not the most fundamental reason. 】

[The most fundamental reason is that they cannot be sure that this method can solve you. 】

[You must know that weapons like nuclear bombs are only quite effective when facing the Herrscher of Reason that first appeared. 】

[Facing the Herrscher after him, it will be difficult to play any effective role. 】

[You, who possess the power to fight against Herrscher, may also have the power to deal with this weapon in your hands. 】

[Considering this factor, taking actions too rashly will only intensify the conflict between them. 】

[If this leads to irreparable consequences, or even the demise of human civilization, then the loss outweighs the gain. 】

[In this case, even if they are extremely angry with your actions, they still have no choice but to negotiate peacefully. 】

【Your research institute welcomes old friends from the past. 】

【Eden. 】

[Hua once saved Eden in the Seventh Great Crash, and the two became good friends using this as an opportunity. 】

[Compared to Eden, Hua has many immature aspects in terms of work and other aspects, so Eden also takes good care of this little sister. 】

【from this angle......】

[It seems normal for Eden to come to your research institute to visit Hua, who is mentally affected by being possessed by the Eighth Herrscher. 】

【You welcome the arrival of this old friend of Eden. After all, even now you have taken different paths due to conflicts of ideas, and even there are conflicts between positions. 】

[However, the fact that you are friends does not seem to change because of this. 】

【"Lu, I remember that I should have asked you to help me take better care of this child Hua..."】

[Standing outside the training room, looking at the figure with flying silver-gray hair who was sweating profusely, Eden fell silent for a short while. 】

【Then, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he said in a rather difficult tone. 】

["Yeah, isn't she in a good condition now?" You looked at the training figure wearing a green sportswear, and your tone was quite natural, "Hua's spirit was affected by the Herrscher of Knowledge before, but now she is basically completely recovered."】

【"Could it be that you think you shouldn't train too much during the recuperation period? But what she's hurting is her spirit, not her body. Normal training will actually help her mental recovery."】

【You have a serious expression, it seems that you didn't realize what Eden meant at all. 】

[Eden is silent. 】

【Her lips moved slightly, as if she wanted to say something, but she didn't say it in the end. 】

【She stared silently at the green sportswear Hua was wearing at this time, and then looked at the two big characters "Shenzhou" on the chest. 】

[Then, he finally spoke. 】

【"But, the clothes Hua is wearing right now, isn't it..."】

【"Well, it's not appropriate?"】

[Eden is a person who loves "beautiful" things. 】

[It can make people feel the pleasing scenery, exquisite paintings, melodious singing, charming clothing, sparkling gems...]

【These are things she likes very much. 】

【Therefore, for the familiar people around her, she does not hesitate to spend her energy to make those people more beautiful. 】

[So, she has spent a lot of energy learning about fashion design, and she can be called a master who is very good at this field. 】

[However, the sportswear that Hua is wearing now has Shenzhou written on the chest...]

[It can be said that she is challenging her aesthetics. 】

【Eden is still smiling, but you can see that there seems to be a bulging vein on her forehead for a certain moment. 】

【"Lu, can you tell me who made Hua wear this outfit?"】

[Eden asked in a soft voice. 】

【"No one asked her to wear this dress." You replied, "This is clearly Hua's own choice."】

【"My own choice?"】

【"Yeah, she wanted clothes that are more mobile, so she chose this sportswear."】

【"My friend..." Eden glanced over slowly, and said in a quiet tone, "Hua is a very good child, well-behaved and easy to push back, although some may not be very smart... ...."]

【"But, don't bully her because of this..."】

[She is a cute girl with a good background, why don't you dress up well? 】

[Eden sighs. 】

[At this time, Hua, who had finished today's training, also came out of the training room. 】

[Sweat was still dripping from her forehead, her face was flushed because she had just finished exercising, and the clothes on her body had large dark wet spots due to sweat during training. 】

【"Eden?"】

【Seeing the person waiting outside the training room, she raised her hand and casually wiped the sweat from her forehead, and walked over. 】

[The gray hair tied into a neat single ponytail looks heroic, and the sweat smell from the exercise just on his body is not unpleasant but has a strange attraction. 】

【"Long time no see, hua, I have some things to deal with here, so I'll come and see you." Eden was not in the mood to exchange pleasantries at this time, and handed the towel in his hand to hua.】

【"You take a rest, let me take you to pick out some clothes later, and then I will return to the flame moth and I will—"】

【"Ah? Picking clothes? Why?" The girl with long gray hair was stunned for a moment and asked, "But I don't need a change of clothes right now."】

【"However, the clothes you are wearing now seem to be..." Eden said, and fell silent for a while. In order to prevent the other party from understanding what he meant, he still said it bluntly, "Is it, some are not very beautiful Woolen cloth?"】

【"Is there?" Hua showed a blank expression, and tugged at his clothes, "It's not ugly."】

[This kind of clothes, she feels good, not ugly, and the quality is also very strong. 】

[Easy to move, you can wear it even for daily training. 】

[Why does Eden seem to want to replace it immediately? 】

【Looking at the innocent expression of the gray-haired girl, Eden fell silent again. 】

[As a woman, wearing clothes is only based on "not ugly" as a requirement, isn't it a bit...]

[With her personality, she doesn't like to see girls who are obviously beautiful, but wear clothes that can't show off their charm. 】

【"If you don't want to change your clothes now, it's okay. When I get back to the Moth, I'll show you the design I just made, and then make it according to your figure and give it to you as a gift."】

【"Ah? You don't need to do this kind of thing, right?" The silver-haired girl raised her hand and scratched the back of her head in embarrassment, with simplicity and honesty written all over her face, "It sounds like it's really troublesome for you." 】

【Her personality is like this, she is the kind of honest child who doesn't usually like to take advantage of others. 】

[Since Eden joined Flame Chaser, he has always taken good care of her. 】

[She felt very embarrassed about this. 】

[After all, even though she helped the other party during the seventh collapse, but as a soldier of the fire moth, it is only natural to help her. 】

[Let her always accept help from the other party, how can it work? 】

【not to mention......】

[Hua is quite upright. 】

【"Eden, the clothes you design always feel light and fluffy, making people feel insecure. Especially those skirts, it feels cold under the buttocks when you look at them."】

【"In comparison, the clothes I'm wearing now are similar, and more convenient to move around, so you don't have to design clothes for me."】

【"Bad, almost..." Eden, who originally wanted to persuade Hua to accept his kindness, was suddenly struck by lightning when he heard the other's words. 】

[Could it be that I thought that my level of designing clothes was pretty good, is it all my own opinion? 】

[Actually, those who receive the clothes I designed as gifts are all complimenting me? 】

【"Ah! No, that's not what I meant!" Seeing Eden who was suddenly shocked by his words, Hua quickly explained, "I'm not saying that Eden's clothes are not good, those clothes are not good. Pretty pretty."]

【"However, my personality doesn't really care about whether the clothes look good or not. I care more about the practicality. After all, as long as the clothes don't look unsightly, right?"】

【Eden numbly nodded his head, then sighed softly. 】

【"But, hua, even if this is the case, as a girl, you still have to think about dressing yourself up."】

【"Eden, if it's me, there shouldn't be such a need, right?"】

[Hua said in a low voice. 】

【"After all, when the Houkai broke out, those Houkai beasts wouldn't be soft just because someone looks good in clothes."】

【"What's more, I am just an ordinary combatant, I don't have any outstanding strength, and the only family-inherited boxing method can't play a big role in the battle."】

【"Compared to paying attention to my own attire, I should train more, so that I might be able to survive the battle where I would die."】

【"Compared with other things, I hope to make myself stronger, and then do the things I really want to do."】

[Eden is silent. 】

[On the contrary, you quite agree with Hua's words at this time. 】

【You raise your hand and pat her on the shoulder. 】

【"Well said, Ah Zhuang, compared with other people's opinions, it is the most important thing to be clear about what you really want and what you want to do."】

【Hearing you address her, Hua frowned slightly, pursed her mouth, but said nothing. 】

【On the contrary, Eden looked at you with a blank face. 】

【"What did you call her just now..."】

【"Ah Zhuang, Hua has been exercising for a long time and has a very good physique. Don't you think this title is very suitable?"】

【"Hua, don't you think there is something wrong with this nickname?"】

【"Ah? It sounds a bit strange, but it's okay, after all, it's not demeaning or cursing."】

【Eden was silent for a while, and then a soft smile appeared on his face. 】

【She raises her arms, wrapping them gently around your neck. 】

【"Lu, come here..."】

【"I have something, I want to talk to you."】
