[Senti l: Place your bets, everyone! Kiana vs elf kevin, who do you think will win or lose? I bet Kevin will win]
[Fu Hua: ...Little Senti , do you really have to be like this?]
[Senti: What's wrong, old fossil? I'm not actually betting anything. But old fossil, who do you think will win in the end?]
[Fu Hua: elf Kevin]
[Raiden Mei: I also think it's elf Kevin]
[Bronya: Agreed. Based on our understanding and abilities at the time, we most likely wouldn't win]
[Pardofelis: I also think Boss Kevin will win]
[Mei: Count me in. @Elysia, remember to send the elf kevin over later so I can see him]
[Elysia: Alrighty then ♪~ No problem at all~]
[Su: I agree]
[Kevin: ...]
It could only be said that Kevin's strength was constantly being recognized by everyone, and his value was steadily increasing...
Kiana and Mei attacked elf Kevin from left and right.
Kevin dealt with the two people on his left and right, while also dodging Bronya's sneak attacks from afar.
Seeing that this tactic seemed to have some effect, Bronya shouted, "Help me stall for some time!"
Kiana immediately responded, "Okay, Bronya, hurry up!"
But unexpectedly, elf Kevin was still easily dealing with two people at once, without any effort.
"Instant Slash!"
Mei quickly drew her sword, and the blade collided with elf Kevin's baseball bat, emitting a crisp sound.
"Mei, quick!"
Kiana shouted from the side.
Hearing Kiana's voice, Mei used the recoil from the collision to leap backward.
"Neko Charm!"
With Kiana's shout, the power of her White Comet armor was unlocked, and a giant cat paw slammed down from the sky.
In the distance, Heavy Weapon Bunny's charging was also complete.
"Fire!"
Bronya ordered.
Energy instantly mixed together, and a huge explosion sounded, filling the surroundings with thick smoke.
Seeing this scene, Kiana thought, 'It worked!'
She said proudly, "Oh, it's finally over! I told you, if Mei and I work together, we're unstoppable!"
"Kiana! Mei! Be careful, it's not over yet!"
Bronya quickly shouted to the two of them.
At this moment, the smoke slowly dissipated, and elf Kevin still stood firmly in place.
Although the surrounding simulated ground had been destroyed, he still stood steadily, holding his baseball bat.
"Your teamwork is decent, but still too naive."
Elf Kevin, with his childish face, said such words, creating a huge contrast.
Kevin's eyes sharpened, and the baseball bat in his hand swung so fast that it left afterimages, directly attacking Mei, who was not far away.
"Mei!"
Kiana saw this and immediately panicked.
Taking advantage of Kiana's panic, Kevin directly launched a surprise attack, hitting Kiana on the head with a bat.
The three-person team instantly lost one member. After that, Kevin hit Mei out of the training ground with another bat, leaving only Bronya to struggle alone.
Kiana screamed as she walked out of the training pod, saying with a look of disbelief, "How could he be so strong! How is that possible!? Elysia teacher, did he cheat!"
Bronya said from the side, "The training ground's system is completely normal; there's no possibility of cheating."
"Ah... how could this happen?"
Kiana said dejectedly.
The only impact elf Kevin had on Kiana was that later, when she truly met Kevin, she ran even faster than before...
"Oh my, it seems no one succeeded in the challenge~"
Elysia said, "I originally wanted to prepare some surprises for everyone, but now it seems like such a pity~"
"With all due respect, Elysia teacher, this is not an opponent we can defeat right now."
Fu Hua stepped forward and said.
"Hmm, Fu Hua is right!"
Elysia nodded.
Fu Hua was stunned: ?
Elysia then asked, "What should we do if we encounter an unbeatable opponent in the future?"
"Should we rush forward without hesitation, or try to survive and then slowly figure out a solution?"
Most people felt that life was more important, after all, Valkyries were also important strategic resources and should not be sacrificed lightly.
"Indeed, to knowingly attempt the impossible can only happen when a miracle occurs."
Elysia continued, "So, what I want to tell you is, no matter when, never fall into true despair, even if the road ahead is difficult..."
"Whether you choose to charge forward or preserve your strength, never let the light of hope in your heart fade away~"
"Because if even hope is gone, that would be truly pitiful."
"But, teacher, the possibility of a miracle happening is still too small..."
Bronya raised her hand and said.
"That's right, so, my lovely maidens, future Valkyries, I'm not asking you to crave the occurrence of miracles, but just to hold onto hope and keep striving~"
Miracles happen to everyone. Kiana and her two companions had more or less experienced things unimaginable to ordinary people.
They naturally had some feelings about this...
[Fu Xuan: So-called hope is actually a goal for spiritual sustenance. The Xianzhou can travel through the star sea, which originally stemmed from a certain hope...]
[Jing Yuan: 'Sworn as clouds to shield the sky, protecting the Xianzhou'—this is also the hope of the Cloud Knights.]
[Yanqing: Becoming the Sword Master is perhaps the hope the General places in me.]
[Jing Yuan: Haha, but don't overwork yourself because of hope; that would be counterproductive.]
[Aventurine: To put it more clearly, this is merely a entanglement of interests.]
[Jade: This is like a transaction: give your heart to hope, and you'll have an extremely tiny chance of triggering a miracle.]
[Qingque: Then I hope to have an easy job where I can slack off, hehe.]
[March 7th: That's right, does even trailblazing itself originate from a kind of hope?]
[Dan Heng: March 7th is right.]
[Stelle: We vow to spread the light of trailblazing throughout the entire universe!]
[March 7th: Oh, Stelle, it's rare to see you so serious. I thought Aha had possessed you earlier.]
[Stelle: What are you talking about? I've always been very serious, alright!]
[Elysia: That's right, this is hope, a brilliant light rooted in human nature.]
[Eden: Elysia, I suddenly want to compose another song...]
[Elysia: Yay! Then you can perform it for everyone in the live broadcast room! Who knows, Eden might even become a big star in other worlds~]
[Robin: Oh, is this Miss Eden also an artist? Then I'll be very much looking forward to it.]
[Elysia: This Miss Robin seems very famous.]
[Stelle: Of course, she's a universally renowned superstar!]
[Elysia: Wow, then I really hope to meet you too~]
...
After the class ended, elf Kevin looked at Elysia, extended his hand, and said, "Give me the thing."
"Alright, alright, this is what we agreed upon."
Elysia said, and as if by magic, she pulled out a small Divine Key: Might of An-Utu from behind her!
Elf Kevin quickly jumped up and "snatched" the Divine Key from Elysia's hand, then carefully hugged him to his chest. He looked absolutely adorable.
Kevin, watching this scene in the live broadcast room, was a bit speechless. He began to regret making this elf kevin.
Kiana, Mei, and Bronya were all a bit surprised, thinking:
Why was he so ruthless when he was fighting us just now? Why is he acting like a child asking his parents for a toy now?
A/N;I feel like I'm not suited to writing this kind of thing
