In fact, the moment the authority of Origin had turned,
Nagazora City had already become the most dazzling place.
It wasn't just Schicksal Headquarters, but also the Far East Branch, the Anti-Entropy North American Base, and even… the Sea of Quanta.
The enlightened one, who was leaning against the tree, suddenly opened his eyes the moment the energy had erupted. His blue and pink eyes revealed a trace of disbelief.
"—This feeling!?"
Su, who was usually extremely calm, had lost his composure due to this energy surge:
"How is that possible?!"
Even after 50,000 years, he still instantly recognized whose familiar energy that surge belonged to.
But precisely because Su was very clear on who the owner of this power was, he had lost his composure like this.
—Elysia!
There was no mistaking it. This was Elysia's power!
Full of vitality and as brilliant as flowers, this was Elysia's power, the power that belonged to the Herrscher of Man!
But, how was that possible?
He was extremely certain that this power belonged to Elysia, and precisely because of that, a sense of extreme confusion washed over Su.
He was sure that this power shouldn't have appeared in this era… no, at least it definitely shouldn't have appeared at this time!
Su murmured:
"Is this the variable?"
"The power of the Herrscher of Origin that should have been left behind by Elysia in the near future."
"It actually appeared in this generation ahead of time."
That was the only conclusion that Su could reach.
Although it was very similar, he felt that the one using this power could not possibly be Elysia.
Because that girl had long since disappeared along with the era of 50,000 years ago.
There was no resurrection from death. This was the iron rule of the world.
But why... why was this power so nostalgic?
Su, who had stood up, looked at the white-haired figure that was reflected in the pond. He didn't know if he should tell this information to that person.
...
Back at the Raiden Residence, Elysia impatiently borrowed a room from Mei, and then grabbed Jiang Qiao's collar and asked with great concern:
"What exactly is going on, Jiang Qiao? Shouldn't you give me an explanation?"
She couldn't bear it, she couldn't bear it at all.
Seeing that Jiang Qiao had done so many things that she couldn't have imagined with her body, even the kindest fairy couldn't help but be annoyed!
Today, she had to get to the bottom of everything!
Otherwise, if this continued, wouldn't she become the fake Elysia?
"Don't be so impatient~ It's not good to be so rough with a cute girl, but it's okay~ I forgive you."
"Forgive you my butt!"
As she looked at Jiang Qiao, who was using her face to act like a vibrant girl, the usually composed Elysia roared in her mind, and even had the urge to punch him in the face.
Calm down, calm down. That's her body!
"That's my body! I can do whatever I want with it!"
"Hmm~ So forceful..."
"–Stop acting!"
The angry fairy lady finally reached the peak of her anger, and tried to stop Jiang Qiao's "abuse" with actions.
But it seemed that she had forgotten that this wasn't her body. Because of the height difference, and because of the sudden attack, the chubby lady, who was pouncing forward, had directly pushed Jiang Qiao down.
The force had caused a bit of "too intimate contact" between them, making both of their eyes widen.
But—
When they blinked again, the perspective had changed.
What came into view was a pink girl, and the soft feeling between their lips was crystal clear.
Huh, had they switched back?
Just as this thought formed, Jiang Qiao was pushed away.
And before her, the pink girl, who had sat up and lowered her head, had her face covered by the hair on her forehead. The only thing that could be seen was her red ears.
Solved it! The way to switch back bodies was by bopping lips!
"Hmm, as expected, a man's body feels more comfortable."
After realizing that she had switched back, Jiang Qiao first raised her wrist, to feel her long-lost…well, actually it had only been two or three days, male body.
"Hiss—"
It hurt!
When Elysia and Kiana were fighting the plane and the Titans, they had left a lot of injuries on Jiang Qiao's body. Of course, the gunshots were fine, but they mainly left scratches.
"You… your care of it seems to have had some problems."
Although he could tolerate it, Jiang Qiao couldn't help but sigh and look at Elysia irritably.
She had said that she would take care of his body, but hadn't she not done it at all?
The fairy lady widened her eyes.
Was that what you were concerned about?!
"After stealing my first kiss, the first thing you say is that?! I will really cry, you know!"
Elysia glared at Jiang Qiao with puffed up cheeks, expressing her displeasure like an inflated pufferfish.
Looking at the pink fatty like that, Jiang Qiao fell into a brief silence.
Damn it, someone was starting to play the victim first!
"Is there a possibility that you were the one who kissed me?"
As soon as he said that, Elysia, who was being stared at, instantly felt guilty.
It seemed… it was her fault, wasn't it?
But she couldn't help it!
Seeing Jiang Qiao acting all over the place with her body, the angry fairy lady did such a foolish thing in a fit of anger, directly stopping his mouth with hers!
The pink fatty, who was at a disadvantage, said softly:
"I, I was just defending the real Elysia!"
Why did you have to act like me so much?
If you continued to act like that, wouldn't I become the fake one?
"Anyway, we switched back. It's basically necessary to kiss, so getting the first kiss of a cute girl like me, you're the one who profited, you should accept it with gratitude."
As she said this, Elysia's heart bled.
Why had she given up her first kiss that she had treasured for so many years?
Right, it definitely wasn't her fault. It was all Jiang Qiao's fault!
If it wasn't for Jiang Qiao acting like that in front of her, she wouldn't have done something so stupid.
This was a punishment!
...But, the feeling of kissing her own lips actually felt quite nice, huh?
The pink girl, who subconsciously touched her lips, licked the corner of her mouth.
"I'm a newbie too, okay?"
Jiang Qiao glared at her irritably.
It's not like he wasn't losing his first kiss either.
Although it was pretty good to kiss the pink fatty, the problem was that this time it was Elysia who had been proactive!
He hadn't even had time to savor it before it ended, what a loss!
But anyway, it wasn't a big deal. Other than the bopping of lips, after getting his body back, Jiang Qiao discovered something that was even more important.
As he willed it, a crystal flower appeared in his hand. But it wasn't pink, it was transparent.
Seeing this, Elysia widened her eyes.
What the heck?
How did Jiang Qiao also learn how to create crystal flowers?
Although the essence of crystal flowers was actually just crystals created with extremely skillful Honkai energy manipulation techniques.
But Elysia, who had been in Jiang Qiao's body, knew that he didn't know how to use any Honkai energy!
His Honkai energy resistance was probably negative. A single Great Honkai Eruption would be enough to kill him. Yet, after switching back, he could suddenly make flowers like her?
But quickly, Elysia discovered something even more difficult.
She seemed like she couldn't use her body in the same way that Jiang Qiao had.
The chubby lady's heart suddenly skipped a beat.
—Crap, could it be that I'm actually a useless person?
