"That's to show you…" Sam's mecha glowed with radiant light.
Sam shed the mecha, revealing a figure within, and Caelus was shocked by the sight before him.
Firefly appeared in front of Caelus. "My entirety."
At that moment, the barrage fell silent.
Then it erupted in a rebound.
[AHHHH!]
[Firefly's finally back!]
[Jailfly, you won the revival race! You really won!]
[She's so beautiful!]
[I finally understand the feeling of losing something and getting it back. This is the best feeling in the world.]
[It's really Firefly! I still couldn't believe it, but wow, I didn't expect this!]
[As long as she's alive, that's all that matters! Firefly!!]
[The Firefly fans are saved! Finally saved!]
At this moment, the screen displayed four words: "To Be Continued," but nothing was truly over.
Back at the Dewlight Pavilion, Gallagher arrived in the grand hall.
"Maze-like corridors and rooms, traps everywhere… The owner of this mansion has some serious trust issues."
On the other side, Sunday's figure appeared. "You're quite humorous, Mr. Sheriff. I hope that sense of humor has helped you find the serial killer."
"Just sharing my personal opinion. What, did I hit a nerve?"
"Mr. Gallagher, my patience is limited. Slacking off will only make me suspect you're connected to the real culprit."
Gallagher paused for a moment. "Scoundrel, thug, drunkard, rogue… I've heard all the trash talk, but I never thought I'd one day be accused of being an accomplice to a murderer. I take it back: your problem isn't being overly suspicious. You're a lunatic, got it? A lunatic."
He stormed up to Sunday with anger. "You—the Family—broke this old dog's spine, pulled out my fangs, and now you're accusing me of murder? Bastard, only a Soleida-drunk idiot would lose it at a stray dog on the street.
What's got you spouting this nonsense nonstop? Instead of me, you should be worrying about those foreigners causing a ruckus at the theme park."
Sunday smiled faintly. "No need for your reminder. The moment that envoy left the pavilion, I knew what he was up to. My servants saw everything.
His little magic trick fooled me, but no matter. I'm quite pleased to see the current situation.
Why do you think I let him go, and why did I clear the stage at that theme park specifically for him?
Because my target has always been you, hound. The bigger the commotion he causes, the more chances I have to make you and your true master pay for your blood debts."
"If I were really the culprit, why would you bother with all this secrecy? Oh, I forgot, you've got a tough master to serve too—they told you to ignore the damn murder case and focus on that 'Charmony Festival'…"
[Holy crap! There's another mastermind?]
[This plot is absolutely divine.]
[Everyone's a mastermind, everyone has their own agenda, no clowns here, just people with their own goals! This is a true battle of wits! This is what I want to see.]
At this moment, Sunday revealed the truth he had uncovered, along with Gallagher's true identity.
"Indeed, every part of you is real. Brown hair, soft and curly like Benny's; orange eyes, reminding me of Sir Whitaker's gaze; a peculiar scar, Wolsey's medal…
And the gray vest, tie, hound badge, flask, mixology skills, sheriff's identity… all of them are real—from fifty-two loyal Family members.
When they come together, countless tiny truths weave into a lie—you took a fragment of cognition from each person, claiming them as your own, fabricating a complete 'Gallagher' in the dream…
Am I right, pawn of 'Enigmata'?"
['Enigmata'? Is Gallagher a pawn of Enigmata?!]
[The earlier details are coming together, giving me chills.]
[I haven't even recovered from Kakavasha, then they hit me with Firefly winning the revival race, and now they're straight-up exposing a werewolf. Too intense.]
[So Gallagher's really only thirteen?]
"Hahahahaha! You've got guts, impressive! Alright, I underestimated you…" Gallagher gave a villainous speech. "I admire you. But so what? Does this prove I killed your sister and that stowaway?"
"It proves you're in league with the Memory Zone Meme 'Something Unto Death'—that's enough. Listen, I don't care how you did it… I only care about one thing, the answer to one question!" Sunday finally lost his temper, roaring in breakdown. "You bastard, you damned stray, why did you kill her?!"
"The bystander is blind—people can't see the sand in their eyes, only knowing it's there." Gallagher pulled out a lighter to toy with, sitting on the sofa.
"Want answers? I'll give you one. It's all because of damned fate playing its tricks."
As Gallagher snapped the lighter shut, 'Something Unto Death' suddenly appeared, piercing Sunday…
Blue dream bubbles scattered across the floor again.
"[Season Four, Complete!]"
The fourth season ended abruptly. It seemed to say everything, yet nothing at all!
[???]
[Huh???]
[Ending like that?]
[Sorry, I'm kinda dumbfounded, what do I do?]
[Me too.]
[That's it?]
[No way, bro, you're playing like this?!]
[Can't we just enjoy a web series in peace?]
Just as the audience was about to blow up at miHoYo.
Suddenly, two girls appeared on the screen.
One with gray hair tied with a butterfly bow on the left, the other with pink hair and a smiling face.
The audience recognized them instantly—this was Firefly, and the pink-haired girl was labeled as Elysia.
[Elysia? Why does she feel familiar?]
[That super popular streamer, no way? miHoYo's really eating up everyone, even pulling in streamers?]
[Badass!]
[Elysia in a white dress, she's totally my type!]
[Holy crap, I never dreamed of these two standing in front of me at the same time. The impact would be insane!]
Firefly waved at the camera. "Hello, everyone, I'm Firefly. miHoYo has just launched a VR game—Glamoth's Embers. You can play it for free on the official website. Get through the 42-day content drought."
Elysia took Firefly's hand. "That's right♪"
"Please give it a try, you'll get a unique experience♪"
"I'm here to announce that the web series Honkai Impact Third will soon meet you all♪"
"To thank our fans, the pilot episode The Thirteen Flame-Chasers will start airing tomorrow♪"
"Elysia will always live up to your expectations, no matter when or where♪"
Finally, Firefly and Elysia said in unison, "Goodbye & Goodbye♪"
