Chapter 100 - Chapter 100: Lixue... I can only accompany you so far.

The undeniable outcome for an A-rank Valkyrie attempting to stop the Herrscher of the Void is death.

In the Herrscher's fury, the icy Sub-space lance pierced her chest.

Pain ripped through her body, and she collapsed to her knees, feeling the breath of life slipping away.

Death—this moment was so near.

Beautiful scenes from the past flashed before her eyes.

"Lixue... I can only accompany you so far."

Falling into darkness with regret, the colors of life faded from her eyes.

The scene ended here.

The life of the girl named Cheng Lixue was laid bare in this fleeting image.

It wasn't long, filled with regret, even a bit dull.

But it shocked everyone present.

This girl, striving to grow just to make her master smile, willing to face death in the face of danger just to give him a chance to live—even in her final moments—regretted only that she could no longer accompany her master.

The willpower she displayed was no less than that of Himeko in the Final Lesson.

Even Einstein who had experienced much and was not easily moved by ordinary things couldn't help but stare at this.

As for the person involved, although Fu Hua's expression remained calm after watching these images, anyone could see the sadness and grief in her eyes.

"..." Himeko placed a hand on Fu Hua's shoulder and sighed.

Thinking carefully, she had experienced something similar to Fu Hua, so she understood her feelings quite well.

Perhaps it was because of the atmosphere.

This time, the Q&A Space didn't drop a reward box from the sky above Fu Hua' s head.

It simply appeared out of thin air in front of Fu Hua.

This left Tesla speechless.

So this time, they were using a more normal distribution method. Then what about that damn space dropping rewards from the sky before?!

Fu Hua answered this question, so logically, she should have opened it.

However, the image of Cheng Lixue had a profound impact on Fu Hua.

Seeing Fu Hua's dazed look, Mei hesitated for a moment before opening her mouth.

Book of Fuxi took the initiative, "Let me do it."

Given Jingwei's current state, it was best to leave her alone.

As Jingwei's personal attendant, it was no problem for her to open the box.

The others naturally had no objections, but their eyes were fixed on Book of Fuxi, anticipating what he would reveal.

After a flash of golden light, Boox of Fuxi pulled a metal box, even larger than the Homu box, from the modest Homu box.

Seeing this extremely unscientific scene, the scientifically savvy Tesla felt his perspectives shaken and couldn't help but grumble.

"Hey, hey, hey, how did this get stuffed in there?!"

That's not how you put objects!

Of course, this was just a rant.

After all, talking about science in a question-Q&A Space is inherently unscientific.

Book of Fuxi pressed a button on the metal box with her small hand.

Under the expectant gazes of several people, the metal box instantly disintegrated.

And the contents within were revealed.

"What is this...!?"

Seeing the contents of the box, everyone was somewhat surprised.

Because inside sat a humanoid doll with its eyes closed.

"Oh, it's an ELF!"

Book of Fuxi was naturally familiar with this thing, and upon seeing the doll, which was roughly her own size, a hint of joy crossed her face. This could be considered a companion.

Born in this era, Book of Fuxi had never seen another ELF.

"But, this appearance..."

Amidst her joy, Book of Fuxi suddenly realized something very important and exclaimed in surprise.

"Isn't this... isn't this Cheng Lixue?!"

Although she was much smaller than the one in the video and her attire was different, judging from her appearance, she was definitely the Cheng Lixue from the video.

Book of Fuxi floated next to the Cheng Lixue-shaped ELF and tried to activate it the same way her activated her own.

Luckily, it seemed that this one... it already had a certain amount of energy built into it, allowing it to be activated immediately.

After a series of transformations, the ELF resembling Cheng Lixue slowly opened its gray eyes and stood up.

At this moment, everyone noticed a water-blue sword at the base of the puppet's butt.

They were no strangers to this sword.

After all, they had just seen it.

Under Fu Hua's complex gaze, the puppet resembling Cheng Lixue took flight atop the water-blue sword.

Under everyone's gaze, she blinked and spoke.

"I am Water's Edge, once one of the many Xuanyuan Swords. I can control the flow of water and clear all obstacles before you."

And Water's Edge's gaze fell on Fu Hua, a strange expression on her face.

She circled Fu Hua, noticing her nostalgic, mixed gaze. She couldn't help but ask.

"Do you know me? No, I mean, do you know someone who looks like me?"

"Sorry, I asked such a strange question. This face always feels so familiar. Where have I seen it before..."

She muttered to herself with a hint of distress.

After a moment of hesitation, Water's Edge shook her head and smiled.

"If you ever see someone who looks like me, please let me know. I really want to meet her!"

As soon as the words left her mouth, Water's Edge was embraced by Fu Hua.

"Hmm..."

This sudden action surprised Water's Edge, but she made no attempt to resist. She simply raised her head and gazed at Fu Hua with her gray eyes.

For some reason, when this person embraced her, she always felt warm and comfortable, and inexplicably... happy.

...so strange.

The others watched this harmonious scene in silence, unwilling to disrupt the brief peace.

[8. In the ELF Academy, which of the following individuals discovered Theresa's dark secret, causing Theresa to become enraged and kill everyone?]

[A. Selune's Elegy]

[B. Water's Edge]

[C. Book of Fuxi]

[D. Bella]

In the silence, the eighth question appeared.

However, after reading this question... everyone was a little confused.

Strange questions were added.

What is a ELF Academy? I've never heard of it.

Uncomprehending, Einstein turned her gaze to Theresa. After all, the question mentioned Theresa, didn't it?

Under everyone's gaze, Theresa curled her lips, a little confused.

She had no idea what was going on.

ELF Academy? Is it an academy full of ELFs?

Will she open something like that in the future?

Forget it!

She couldn't even manage St. Freya Academy, and she had nothing better to do than open an academy specifically for ELFs.

But... after seeing the message in the question about [her anger and annihilation of everyone], Theresa suddenly felt a sense of unease.

Hey, hey, this... is this going to persecute me?!
