V3/Chapter 3: No one leaves the Fire Moth alive.
This little episode did not cause any waves, because if this matter was regarded as a transaction, then Elysia was making a losing deal from the very beginning.
So Ai Yue knew it very well, knowing that the other party was taking advantage of the situation and giving herself an excuse to use him.
From this perspective, Elysia can even be said to have killed three birds with one stone. She not only ensured that Dystopia and Kosma would not be truly separated, but also pulled Ai Yue out of the laboratory. Finally, she could participate in the other party's subsequent experiments. It can be said to be a perfect result.
However, although he got a promise from Elysia, Ai Yue has not yet figured out how to use it.
In the current plan, there is no room for Elysia to appear, but it is obvious that Elysia, as the most special one among the Herrschers, is the one who truly connects the previous civilization and the current civilization. Her research value can be said to exceed that of anyone else in the world.
Even if Mobius has begun to cultivate his character and is no longer as anxious as before, if he knew the real secret of Elysia, he would probably rack his brains to find a way to trick her onto his operating table.
"So, what are you going to do with this promise?"
Elysia looked at Ai Yue curiously, "Whatever your request is, it's fine~"
Elysia did not set any restrictions on this promise, because she knew very well that the man in front of her could be said to be the most arrogant and presumptuous person in the world, but he also had the highest moral bottom line. He was so strict with himself that it was unbelievable, as if he were really born to save the world.
So even if she didn't impose any restrictions, Ai Yue would never overstep the line.
"I haven't really thought about it yet."
Ai Yue said frankly, "To be honest, you are not in my plan for the time being."
"Really?"
"Then we'll talk about it later."
Elysia didn't force it, but looked out the door, "Speaking of which, why hasn't Kevin arrived yet? The captain's meeting should have ended, right?"
"I'm afraid he has no intention of coming."
Ai Yue adjusted his glasses and said, "Oh, he is on the second floor rooftop. Do you want to go find him?"
"Of course. This is a dance for the fusion warriors. How can he not come?"
Elysia stood up, as if she had thought of something, and grabbed Ai Yue's arm again, "Come on, Ai Yue, come and help persuade him."
In a hurry, Ai Yue had no time to refuse. He only had time to grab two cookies before being dragged away by the other party.
When the two arrived at the rooftop, Kevin was still on a video call with Dr. Mei.
"I think we should just forget it."
As soon as Ai Yue and Elysia walked onto the rooftop, they heard Kevin's voice.
"Hmmm~?"
Elysia asked curiously, "Kevin, what are you talking to Mei about?"
Before Kevin could say anything, Dr. Mei saw Elysia and Ai Yue approaching through the camera and couldn't help but smile: "It's just right that you're here. I'll leave this to you. I have something else to do, so I'll hang up first."
"Mei..."
Before Kevin could say anything, Dr. Mei unilaterally hung up the video call, so he couldn't help but sigh, and then looked at the two people, "Are you here to take me to the dance?"
Seeing the other party's performance, Ai Yue couldn't help but think of what he had seen in the comics before.
When Kevin and Mei were still students, this is probably how Kevin always pestered Mei, right?
Now that he saw that the other party's character was not as cold and twisted as in the previous civilization, Ai Yue felt as if he had become even greater.
After all, this is all his credit.
"Yeah, you're not going to refuse, are you?"
Seeing Kevin's expression, which looked like a dog locked out by its owner, Elysia and Ai Yue looked at each other and smiled at the same time, "Kevin, you look so pitiful now."
"Whatever you say."
Kevin put away his phone, "Anyway, I think it's better for me not to go to the dance."
"What happened?"
Elysia naturally sensed the other party's mood, "The captain's meeting didn't go well? I remember everything was fine before I left?"
The captain's meeting was actually Elysia's idea, but in order to get Ai Yue to the dance, she had to leave halfway and leave everything to Kevin.
She thought Kevin was already familiar with dealing with this kind of thing, but unexpectedly, he still couldn't do it.
"It's because you're not there, things aren't going well."
Kevin scratched his head and sighed, "After you left, no one spoke. I didn't know how to communicate with them. In the end, I had to disperse hastily. I said I wanted to get to know them, but it was just a comparison of names and appearances."
At the end, Kevin looked at Elysia with an apologetic look: "I'm sorry, I failed your kindness."
Of course, he knew that Elysia wanted to make the relationship between the fusion warriors harmonious, and not create barriers due to different batches, which would lead to the emergence of small groups within the group and affect the battle plan. However, it now seemed that he could no longer communicate with strangers.
"After all, you are the most powerful fusion warrior recognized by the Fire Moth, and a great hero with many military exploits."
Elysia patted Kevin's shoulder in understanding. "You can't be blamed entirely for this. I'm sure everyone is too in awe of you to dare approach you easily."
"So you don't want to go to the dance because you're afraid of ruining the atmosphere?"
Ai Yue also understood Kevin's idea, "But you can't always avoid such occasions. If you continue like this, you will only get further and further away from everyone."
"I understand, that's why I was thinking if I could get Mei to go with me,"
Kevin showed a helpless smile, "As you can see, Mei couldn't leave."
"If you bring in the current top manager of the Fire Moth, it will only make the atmosphere more awkward, right?"
Ai Yue couldn't help but sigh, "Okay, let's come together. With Elysia here this time, what are you afraid of?"
"That's right, don't worry, I'll take care of it!"
Elysia patted her chest and said, "Before we part, I promise to help you get this done!"
Speaking of separation, Kevin couldn't help but sigh again.
Seeing his performance, Elysia couldn't help but take a step back and looked at Ai Yue quietly: "Uh, did I say something wrong?"
Ai Yue couldn't help but look at her sideways—how could Elysia say something wrong? You must have done it on purpose!
"I'm fine. I just remembered what happened to Senior Ato."
Kevin could not have heard Elysia's voice. He waved his hand, and his expression gradually became serious. "Dr. Ai Yue, is Ato going to retire... is that true?"
Even Elysia couldn't help showing a surprised expression: "Ah? There is such a thing?"
