Y/N, THE 14TH MEMBER OF THE FLAMECHASERS: An [Honkai Impact 3rd] Mini-Story

59. THE RETURN OF THE NULL, ABOUT THE DEEP END [3], KEVIN, SU, AND Y/N [1]

=========================
=========================
BACK IN REALITY...
=========================
=========================
Both Mei and Y/n return back to reality together.
As they walk into the lobby, the two are met with the pink elf awaiting for their return.

Elysia: "Mei, welcome back!"
Elysia: "I can see that you have brought Y/n back with you."
Elysia smiles at Mei before putting her attention to Y/n.

Elysia: "You surely have been stranded for the worst, Y/n."
Elysia: "Mobius can be such a troublemaker, isn't she?"

Y/n: "Yes, I believe so."
Y/n: "Enough of Mobius..."
Y/n: "I'm back, Elysia."

Elysia: "Mm, mm!"
Elysia: "Welcome back, my friend!"
Elysia: "How does it feel to return back after a while?"

Y/n: "It could have been better, though I'm glad I am back."
Y/n: "I do like 'The Special Place', but I was feeling bored at times."
Y/n: "It was peaceful while it lasted."

Elysia: "Geez, are you saying you don't like it here?"
Elysia says with a soft teasing tone.

Y/n: "You know I never said that, Ellie."
Y/n states calmly with a gentle smile.

Elysia: "I know, but I do miss our usual and casual converses, you know?"
Elysia: "I was very lonely without you here."

Y/n: "But you had Eden here, don't you?"

Elysia chuckles softly while keeping her usual smile.
Elysia: "You are right, but I do miss you a lot."
Elysia: "It really has been a long time since I've seen you, Y/n."
Elysia: "How could Mobius do that, stranding a beautiful woman like you there all alone?"
Elysia says calmly with a small smile.

Y/n: "Who knows?"
Y/n: "Although I didn't like it, it became more peaceful the longer I stayed."
Y/n: "So from that, I do have to thank Mobius for."
Y/n: "Though it seems she really wanted to take her plans to the next level without my presence..."
Y/n pauses for a moment to glance at Mei with a soft appreciative expression before looking back towards Elysia...
Y/n: "Am I glad that it failed miserably."

Mei: "...I agree."
Mei: "She was definitely frustrated when her plans backfired on her."

Y/n: "Hm, as expected."
Y/n subtly nods while keeping her gaze at Elysia.
Y/n: "I know this is sudden..."
Y/n: "As I heard and never confirmed it myself 50,000 years ago..."
Y/n: "Is it true that Mobius hates pink?"

Elysia: "My, Y/n..."
Elysia: "Was that on your mind the entire time you were in 'The Special Place'?"
Elysia grins softly.

Y/n: "What's told about, spreads around rapidly."
Y/n:  "I was also thinking about other inner thoughts as well during that time."
Y/n returns the small grin with her own.
Y/n: "So?"
Y/n: "Is it true?"

Elysia: "Hmmm...."
Elysia: "Well, if you want an answer..."
Elysia looks at Mei.

Mei: "..."
Mei silently glances at Elysia.

The two immediately look back at Y/n and answer at the same time...
Elysia: "Yes."
Mei: "Yes."

Y/n:  "..."
Y/n: "Hm..."
Y/n: "She really must not like pink for a reason, though I can already guess a few reasons why."
Y/n:  "Though that doesn't concern me right now."
Y/n:  "Anyways, besides Mobius, who is here by far, Ellie?"

Elysia:  "Eden, Su, Sakura, Hua, Kalpas, Pardo, and Kevin."
Elysia:  "There are only a few left missing, I will say, around three members left since we are about to find Aponia next."
