Although she had only been away for a few days, Elysia still felt as if she had been gone for a very long time when she returned to campus.
Upon returning to the dormitory, the three of them tried to keep their footsteps light, as it was already quite late.
Mei and the others were already asleep.
After returning to her room, Elysia lay directly on her bed.
Looking at the familiar ceiling, Elysia finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Elysia had not expected this trip to Heliopos Life Science to go so smoothly.
Nor had she expected Kevin to allow her into the Paradise of the Past.
After all, the purpose of the Paradise of the Past's existence was to train people in the current era to fight against Honkai.
And Elysia was a Herrscher.
Regarding the exposure of her Herrscher identity, Elysia was not surprised at all.
After all, that was the strongest warrior of the previous era, even if it was just a projection.
Speaking of the previous era, Elysia picked up the necklace on her chest and held it in front of her eyes.
Her weapon had absorbed the Herrscher of Corruption from the previous era.
And the Herrscher of Corruption from the previous era was the younger sister of Yae Sakura, one of the Thirteen Flame-Chasers.
Next time she saw Yae Sakura, she should probably mention it.
Although Yae Sakura's memory fragment didn't have this memory, it was still better to just say it directly.
The other Flame-Chasers must have felt terrible keeping this secret, especially those who were very close to Yae Sakura.
Speaking of which, the authority the crystal flower gave her...
Elysia looked at the necklace in front of her.
Could she use the necklace as a bridge to connect and enter Elysian Realm?
To be safe, Elysia copied a portion of the Elysian Realm authority.
Elysia directly stuffed the copied authority into the necklace in front of her.
Then she put the necklace back around her neck.
If the necklace really changed as she expected, then this necklace was now a connector.
Feeling the data within the necklace, Elysia put her consciousness into it.
With just a momentary blur, Elysia's consciousness arrived in a new space.
Is this a shrine?
Where is Elysian Realm? Where is that huge Elysian Realm??
After a careful moment of sensing, Elysia breathed a sigh of relief.
This place seemed to be a part of the space within Elysian Realm as well.
Looking at the surrounding buildings, Elysia began to wonder which Flame-Chaser's resting space this was.
After a while, Elysia frowned as she looked at the shrine.
Among the Thirteen Flame-Chasers, no one was associated with a shrine.
Unable to figure it out, Elysia directly pushed open the shrine's door and walked in.
In her opinion, this was her territory, so what did she have to be afraid of?
As soon as she entered the shrine, Elysia saw a familiar figure.
"Oh? It's Miss Elysia." Kallen, who was sweeping the floor with a broom inside the shrine, said as she watched Elysia enter.
"Kallen? Why are you here?" Elysia scratched her head. The person in front of her was Kallen. How could Kallen be in this data-constructed space?
"Didn't you save me before? Then Yae Sakura brought me here." Kallen put the broom next to the cherry blossom tree and walked towards Elysia.
"Let's go, I'll take you to find Yae Sakura. She should be cooking inside right now." Kallen directly took Elysia's hand and led her deeper into the shrine.
"Yae Sakura is here too?"
"Yes, Yae Sakura told me that you provided this place." Kallen said as she walked with Elysia.
"I provided it? Huh?" Question marks popped up one after another above Elysia's head.
She provided this place? How did she not know? Did she have such a large data space? Wasn't this the Paradise of the Past?
"Yae Sakura said it like that. She said all of this belonged to you." Kallen looked at Elysia with a speechless expression.
How could someone not even know what they possessed?
Even she, though she often forgot things, remembered her own possessions very clearly.
Soon, Kallen led Elysia to a place that looked like a resting area.
"Alright, we're here. Miss Elysia, please rest here for a while. I'll go call Yae Sakura."
After leading Elysia to a room, Kallen ran towards the deeper part of the corridor.
Elysia, from beginning to end, was pondering when she had acquired such a large data space.
And it was related to Yae Sakura, and a shrine. Was this Yae Village from Sakura Samsara? She remembered, wasn't Yae Village a Stigmata space?
"Miss Elysia, long time no see." Yae Sakura walked into the room carrying a tray.
On the tray were some snacks and tea.
"Big Sister, is she the owner here?" Behind Yae Sakura, a fox girl resembling a doll, dressed in a miko outfit, floated out.
"Higokumaru, don't be rude." After Yae Sakura put down the tray, she directly pressed the fox girl down.
"Wow, what a cute little fox lady ♬~" Elysia looked at Higokumaru with curiosity.
Kallen walked in carrying another tray, and after entering, she sat directly next to Yae Sakura.
"Yae Sakura, why did you walk so fast? You came over without even bringing the food." Kallen complained to Yae Sakura.
"Kallen, as I told you, Miss Elysia saved you." Yae Sakura said seriously.
"And Miss Elysia provided us with a place to stay, so we must come to see her immediately."
"Alright, alright, I know, you've said it many times already." Then Kallen looked at Elysia, "Miss Elysia, thank you very much for saving me."
"I..." Elysia looked at the two of them, her mind completely blank. "Um, Yae Sakura, when did I save you two?"
"Miss Elysia, do you remember when you used your blood to heal Kallen?" Yae Sakura said while pouring tea.
"Are you talking about what happened in that data space? But, wasn't that a data space?" Elysia said, taking the tea Yae Sakura handed her.
"Yes, but you are also a being that governs data, aren't you? Just like her." Saying that, Yae Sakura stroked Higokumaru's head.
"Big Sister?" Higokumaru turned to look at Yae Sakura.
"It's nothing, you go eat your snacks first."
"Oh! Then I'll dig in, Big Sister!" Higokumaru immediately picked up a rice ball larger than her face and began to eat it.
"But what does that matter? My blood shouldn't have such a big effect, after all, Kallen's condition was already very bad at the time."
"Miss Elysia, please do not underestimate the effect of your blood on beings like us." Yae Sakura said seriously.
"Uh." Elysia didn't know how to respond. She really didn't know what her blood was for.
"Miss Elysia, you and Higokumaru are the same kind of existence, meaning, the current you is your original self. Your blood already contains some of your information." Yae Sakura sighed and said.
"If you still don't understand, you can think of it as your blood containing an assimilation effect." Yae Sakura explained again.
"No, Yae Sakura... Can you... say something I can understand?" Elysia felt like she was going to faint if she listened any longer!
