Nana got up from the dining table and waved, signaling Mei to follow.
Mei also got up and followed Nana into the room.
When Nana opened the door and turned on the light, Mei was indeed shocked.
The room was filled with various posters, figures, merchandise, wigs, and cosplay outfits related to them.
Her eyes widened instantly.
It was as if she had entered an art gallery, each piece a novel and unique style of art she had never seen before.
She never thought she would see merchandise and figures of everyone, and this…
Her own Night Rain Spring Ripple figure…
Looking closely, it did seem a bit too alluring…
She glanced down inquisitively.
Mei: *A maiden’s blush surpasses all confessions* Why are even these details included?!
Nana stood there, feeling truly embarrassed…
One of the actual people seeing her prized collection, even picking it up to examine and play with it…
Although there was a sense of shame, as if she was touching the figure’s heart, but in reality, she was touching her own body.
Her gaze followed Mei’s every move, trying to keep her little heart from beating so wildly.
After Mei put down the figure and calmed down, her gaze shifted to the area where wigs and cosplay outfits were displayed.
Although she hadn’t seen a few of them, well~ She immediately spotted White Comet, Valkyrie Ranger, Flamescion, and Finality among them, which she was very familiar with~ After flipping through them, she even found her own Herrscher of Thunder, Bronya’s Herrscher of Reason, Teacher Himeko’s Vermilion Knight, Theresa’s Nun Outfit, and Seele’s Stygian Nymph, among others.
Mei suddenly thought of something and took out Flamescion and Finality.
“Nana~~~” Mei smiled, holding and shaking Flamescion in her left hand and Finality in her right.
“Can you put them on so I can see~?” Nana’s pupils immediately widened in shock.
How could she?!
This was public execution for Nana!!
And in front of Mei herself!
Nana: *Blushing white steamed bun face, screaming white steamed bun!* “Mei, Mei…
don’t do this!
Holding the cosplay outfit while looking at me with pleading eyes, I feel inexplicably ashamed!” “Pfft~ Alright, alright, no changing, no changing.” Seeing that Nana looked like she would actually faint if teased any more, Mei put the cosplay outfits back on the rack.
After putting them away, she calmed down and put away her mischievous, playful heart.
However, this had indeed piqued her interest.
With so many outfits, although she couldn’t see Kiana change, she could still see how Nana would look wearing them all~ As a professional Kiana Fan Leader, she had the right to judge how perfect the cosplay was and offer suitable advice.
Mei: *Nods* “So, Nana~ Is this what you wanted to show me~?
Hmm~” With a hint of playfulness, it was indeed quite interesting~ “Ahem, no…
not exactly…
Actually, it should be this.” Nana walked to the ultra-large, ultra-clear monitor hanging on the wall and turned it on.
After pairing it with her phone and syncing the screen, Mei stood by quietly, waiting.
Until she saw the screen display stop on a software called Honkai Impact 3rd, with Kiana’s icon.
Mei’s body suddenly trembled violently, and she frowned, watching.
She felt that the truth was about to be revealed.
“Hmm…
If I were to explain, it’s not clear in just a few words, so I’ll just show you directly…” That night, Mei’s worldview was deleted by Honkai.
Mei unresponsive.jpg Seeing Mei staring motionless, Nana accompanied her through Honkai Impact 3rd’s encyclopedia explanations, actual gameplay, official account videos, character demonstrations, and also MiHoYo Community as an aside.
When she truly understood the origin of “Honkai”.
After a long time, Mei finally came back to her senses.
She had always been a top student in school, and her comprehension skills were not poor; in fact, they were excellent!
So when she learned that everything about them was just a game in this world, that they were all virtual characters, she admitted…
this truth was indeed very impactful.
So impactful that she felt a bit confused…
But in the end, all her words turned into a helpless smile.
So what?
I have flesh and blood, and I am truly standing on the soil of this world right now.
My consciousness, memories, and life cannot be faked.
Even if my past memories are fabricated, am I not recording new memories now?
No wonder Nana had that expression at first…
If it were me, I’d probably be the same.
However, there was still one thing she hadn’t figured out.
That is…
did she transmigrate here?
Or…
was she spontaneously generated in this world?
If she transmigrated, would her Kiana be anxious over there?
But if she was spontaneously generated, what is the meaning of my existence in this world?
“Mei…
are you alright?” Nana looked worriedly at the motionless Mei, extending her hand and waving it in Mei’s line of sight to see if she would react.
This worried, dazed expression made Nana a little scared, fearing that this truth might be too much for Mei to accept…
Mei stopped thinking, took a deep breath and exhaled, trying to clear her mind of distracting thoughts.
She needed to calm down first.
“Hoo…” Coming back to her senses, Mei felt fortunate looking at Nana, who was anxious with worry for her.
Perhaps her mood wasn’t so bad.
If she truly transmigrated, she believed her Kiana would definitely find her one day and bring her home.
But if she was spontaneously generated in this world, didn’t she also have a “Kiana” from this world right in front of her?
A Kiana without Mei is incomplete.
Like code, the underlying layer is the most core and original code.
Since fate dictates that Mei will always be intertwined with Kiana.
Perhaps she could stay here and create new stories.
She understood.
The meaning of her existence, just like her in the video, is that she will always stand behind the person she cherishes, supporting and helping her.
She is Raiden Mei.
“Mei…
why aren’t you moving again…
don’t scare me.” “I’m fine, I just figured some things out.” Mei pulled Nana into a hug, gently stroking her head, responding to her unease, calming this anxious little cat, and at the same time, calming herself.
The feedback from her embrace was real and reassuring.
“Mmm~ Mei, Mei~” Ahhh, Mei is hugging me so tightly!
So excited, so thrilled!
My heart is beating so fast!
“From now on, please take care of me, Nana~ I am Raiden Mei~” “Okay, Mei~ I’m Nana!”
