As time went on, Eden finally reached the boss stage of Chapter 7.
The moment she entered, an animated cutscene began.
The combination of stirring music and just a few seconds of visuals instantly conveyed the oppressive might of the Judgment-class Honkai beast.
"Wow! This boss is a Judgment-class Honkai beast~" Elysia's eyes sparkled.
By now, after learning the basics of the game's world, both she and Eden understood what that meant—these monsters were second only to Herrschers in strength.
Thinking of this, Eden grew serious.
"This is going to be hard… Elysia, maybe you should play this one?"
"I believe in you, Eden~"
"…."
Truth be told, that short cutscene had rattled Eden.
She hadn't even realized it, but at some point she had become completely immersed in the story.
Seeing such a terrifying creature like Benares, she was suddenly worried that under her control, Himeko might die.
"Alright… I'll try."
Eden swallowed, focusing on the screen—then abruptly turned to Elysia.
"Wait—if the character dies, you can revive them, right?"
Elysia suddenly understood and chuckled.
"Don't worry, Eden. If they die, you can spend 15 crystals to fully revive them."
Eden's slightly trembling fingers finally stilled.
"That's good…"
She whispered it softly, then threw herself into the fight—controlling Himeko as she charged at Benares.
Compared to the monster's massive body, Himeko looked so small, but each strike gave Eden a satisfying sense of impact.
Swing, dodge, unleash the ultimate…
For the first time, Eden felt the true fun of gaming.
Luckily, the main story wasn't too punishing. After a tense one-minute struggle, she cleared the stage.
Another cutscene played.
Fu Hua soared through the clouds in a fourth-generation Valkyrie battlesuit, gaze stern as she looked toward Benares.
"No… the Helios can't handle a Judgment-class Honkai beast. I'll have to draw it away."
Her words caught both Eden and Elysia off guard.
"Wait—that's the girl who captured Kiana! She's helping now?"
"Told you," Elysia grinned, "there were definitely hints earlier. This is not just a simple 'cute girls save the world' story."
"I'm guessing… class monitor Fu Hua went undercover in Schicksal."
Eden nodded in agreement and pressed on, soon reaching the final stage of Chapter 7.
"Last stage."
"You can try out Fu Hua's S-rank battlesuit?~" Elysia's eyes lit up.
In the next moment, she latched onto Eden's arm.
"Eden-angel, let me play this one~"
Eden didn't refuse—she slid the keyboard over and rested her chin in her hand, quietly watching.
[Fourth-generation Valkyrie battlesuit: Shadow Knight – Moonblade, limiters released!]
In the cutscene, Fu Hua's black armor swiftly transformed.
The transformation sequence alone sent the livestream chat into a frenzy.
The battle began—in a breathtaking sea of clouds.
"Wow~ what a beautiful scene…"
Before she could finish admiring it, an urgent alarm blared, and the Judgment-class Honkai beast made its dramatic entrance.
"You again, my old defeated foe?~ This time, Elysia will finish you!"
She expertly maneuvered Fu Hua—dodging, striking, chaining combos—far smoother than Eden had managed earlier.
"Too easy~" she declared at the victory screen, turning to Eden with a proud smile.
"Eden, want to praise me? I'll happily accept~"
"You're amazing, Elysia."
"Then let's keep going with our Save the Girl!~"
When she opened the stage menu, they saw Chapter 8 was already the final one available.
"The Queen Descends? Looks like they've only updated up to Chapter 8."
Elysia's focus was very different from Eden's.
"Look, Eden—Kiana and Mei are so sweet together! Can I hold you like that too?"
On-screen, Kiana was carrying Mei in a classic princess-carry pose—pure citrus energy.
"Of course, if you can lift me."
"If it's you, Eden, I can summon 100 times my strength~"
The two bantered in citrus-laced lines while still pushing through the story.
By now, the livestream had hit one million concurrent viewers—and was still climbing.
Normally, Bilibili couldn't host that many people in one stream.
But since Eden had appeared in Elysia's streams before, the site had learned from the first time's crash.
Every time Elysia went live now, the staff preemptively boosted her server capacity—
even if it meant forcing other streamers to end early—just to keep this channel from going down.
After all, this was a tidal wave of traffic.
Several Bilibili staff were watching while working.
"Eden really is something… just showing her face, barely interacting with chat, and the numbers stay sky-high. The bullet chat is insane too."
"Rarity breeds value. She might not show up even once in half a year—suddenly she streams, and fans lose their minds."
"We're definitely hitting trending later…"
"By the way, have you guys looked into this game, Honkai Impact 3rd?"
"Not really… Wait—don't tell me Eden took an ad from them?"
"That would be huge news. First time ever seeing Eden do a commercial."
