"Elysia!!"
"Today's Elysia is still as dazzling and radiant as fluttering petals~"
"Finally! Without Elysia, my life has been nothing but darkness."
"Hmph~ This time your opening line was a bit plain, Elysia… but I still love it~"
Elysia read the scrolling comments softly, her radiant smile never fading. Her lively eyes curved into two crescent moons, and even the occasional jealous remark didn't dampen her mood in the slightest.
"Don't like today's opening? That's okay, I still have thirty-nine other ones ready~
But… you're making me really happy with all this praise."
"I'll let you in on a little secret—Elysia has been planning this stream for the past two months."
"Can you guess what it's about?"
"Go see cute girls? We did that last time already~ Besides… isn't Elysia herself a cute girl?"
"Go find Eden? I'd love to see her, but she's been busy lately—seems she's troubled over her new album…"
"But don't worry about Eden~ Elysia will definitely make her smile again~"
"Help 30 old ladies cross the street? But… there aren't even that many who need help!"
"Looks like you can't guess today's stream… so~ here's a helpful hint from Elysia."
"Today's stream… is about a game."
"Hehe~ no, no, no, can't believe so many cute viewers still can't figure it out… Oh? This girl named 'Moe-chan' guessed it right!"
"As expected, cute girls are always in sync with me~"
"That's right, the game is… Honkai Impact 3rd!"
"I've been waiting for it for so long, but miHoYo never replied to me.
No matter—it finally launched today!"
While keeping an eye on the chat, Elysia clicked the game's icon.
She had first heard about Honkai Impact 3rd while casually browsing Bilibili one day.
Maybe it was the beautiful girls that caught her attention, or maybe the tagline "Fight for all that's beautiful in the world"—either way, the game had an irresistible charm for her.
For the past half-month, she had been following all its news closely. She had watched almost every teaser Mo Li posted.
Kiana, Himeko, Bronya, Mei… the adorable girls in the game truly made her heart flutter.
"Fight for all that's beautiful in the world… and stand side by side with beautiful girls~
Elysia can't wait!"
With tens of thousands of viewers watching, Elysia successfully logged in.
The opening animation began with the familiar miHoYo logo, followed by a crisp female voice in her headphones:
"[Report to Major: An unidentified flying object has appeared over Canghai City, coordinates FH5639. No biological energy detected, internal conditions unknown. Minor Honkai energy readings rapidly increasing.]
[Operation plan confirmed. Drone units, deploy! Cover the Valkyrie's boarding!]"
In the animation, at the heart of a skyscraper-filled city, countless Assault-class Honkai beasts filled the sky. Sirens blared as once-bustling streets turned chaotic and empty.
It took only a few seconds to understand—a disaster had struck, caused by those very Honkai beasts.
The camera then shifted, slowly panning upward from a girl's legs as the music turned light and mischievous.
Elysia's eyes lit up.
"Kiana's here! Now it's beautiful girl time~"
Even viewers unfamiliar with the game found themselves drawn in by the smooth, gorgeous visuals.
"Is this an anime? Looks pretty good!"
"Didn't Elysia just say it's a game?"
"Whoa! A game with animations this detailed?!"
"Is she streaming on PC? This game has a PC version?!"
By now, Elysia was completely absorbed in the game, hardly paying attention to the chat.
When the animation ended, the game transitioned straight into battle.
On-screen, Kiana in her White Comet battlesuit stood on a speeding drone, twin pistols in hand.
Through her headphones came Kiana's lively, confident voice:
"Watch as this lady shows you how it's done!"
Elysia's eyes sparkled.
"Is it my turn to jump in~?
Fighting alongside a beautiful girl really lifts the mood."
She followed the tutorial closely, admiring the vivid visuals as the drone weaved between skyscrapers, over highways, and out toward the ocean. Puffy clouds dotted the bright blue sky… The anime-like art style, paired with upbeat music, left the audience in awe.
Even Elysia's gaze glowed.
"Now it's Kiana time!
This is my stage~"
Listening to Kiana's cheerful voice lines only pulled her deeper in.
"She's just like me—an energetic, adorable girl."
As she controlled Kiana to take down Dead Walkers and Honkai beasts, Elysia realized that in just two minutes, she had fallen completely in love with the game.
Viewers, itching to play themselves, began quietly downloading Honkai Impact 3rd as they watched.
Time slipped by. Before she knew it, Elysia had spent the entire afternoon engrossed in the story.
Only when her phone rang did she snap out of it.
Seeing the caller ID, she let out a delighted giggle.
"Eden, my little sweetheart~ Are you done?"
From the phone came a calm, elegant, mature voice:
"Mm. I'm downstairs."
"I'm coming~" Elysia hung up, waved to the camera, and said,
"Eden the angel is here~ Soon, I'll be fighting side by side with her!"
To the viewers' surprise, she hadn't forgotten she was still live.
