Hearing that, Kiana got instantly riled up and shouted, 〈Hmph! I'm not an idiot! Did you understand it then?!〉
Bronya, 〈Bronya does not pretend to understand what she does not.〉
Fu Hua helplessly shook her head, momentarily unsure of what to say.
--------------------------------------
To Kiana, Fu Lin seemed to have expected this and said with a smile, "Haha, I knew you wouldn't understand. Let me explain it to you."
As he spoke, Fu Lin paused the video, pulled out a blackboard, wrote down "Id," "Ego," and "Super Ego," then pointed at "Id" with a wooden stick and said,
"Simply put, each of us has three different parts inside us, the 'Id,' the 'Ego,' and the 'Super Ego.'
The so-called 'Id' represents our body's instinctive responses.
For example, when we're hungry we want to eat, and when we're sleepy we want to sleep. These basic physiological needs are controlled by the 'Id,' which is why it's associated with the 'body.'"
Kiana, 〈Now that you put it that way, I understand.〉
[Shenzhou Tablet] Fu Hua, 〈...〉
After introducing the "Id," Fu Lin pointed to the "Ego" and continued,
"Now let's talk about the 'Ego.' This is more about our mental or emotional side. For instance, when we face a decision, our minds generate all sorts of thoughts and feelings, weighing pros and cons before we make a choice. That's the 'Ego' at work. So you can think of the 'Ego' as our 'mind.'"
At this moment, Kiana☆ was staring dreamily at Fu Lin who was earnestly lecturing in the livestream, wiping drool from the corner of her mouth and mumbling,
"Fu Lin is so handsome when he's teaching seriously. I really want to..."
Immediately, Kiana☆'s thoughts began to drift uncontrollably, and a beautiful scene appeared in her mind——
Fu Lin walked calmly into the classroom, wearing a crisp white shirt and a neatly tied tie, smiling as he approached.
As the sound of his footsteps drew closer, Fu Lin stopped in front of her, then extended his slender, strong right hand, gently lifting her chin and leaning in slightly to whisper in her ear,
"Kiana☆, in today's biology class, let's explore the human body and human reproduction together."
At that thought, a jolt of electricity seemed to rush through Kiana☆'s entire body. Her lips curled into a foolish smile, and a crisp laugh escaped her mouth.
"Hehehe, Fu Lin..."
Kiana☆ softly called Fu Lin's name coquettishly. At that moment, the entire living room seemed to be filled with an ambiguous yet sweet atmosphere.
Not far away, Sirin held a can of soda, looking speechlessly at the lovestruck Kiana☆ on the couch.
Then she slowly pulled the tab and took a small sip.
Back in the livestream, as Kiana☆ continued fantasizing, Fu Lin pointed to the last concept, the "Super Ego," and continued,
"As for the 'Super Ego,' it's a kind of pursuit from the depths of our soul. For example, adhering to moral standards, aspiring toward noble goals—these all fall under the 'Super Ego.' That's why the 'Super Ego' is referred to as the 'soul.'
Only with all three combined do we become a complete 'person.' Without any one of them, one can't truly be called 'human.' Honkai Beasts are a typical example. They lack the 'Ego' and 'Super Ego' and act only on the desires of the 'Id.'"
As soon as he finished speaking, the livestream audience applauded enthusiastically without holding back.
At that moment, Kiana's eyes sparkled with surprise, her mouth forming a cute "O" shape as she exclaimed, 〈Wow, so that's how it is.〉
[Miss Lily] Otto, 〈That was an excellent explanation. Interested in working for Schicksal?〉
Without a second thought, Fu Lin firmly refused, "Nope, I refuse. Don't come to me. Just continue watching the video."
["Try to remember... you are..."
As the voice of the "Id" echoed from the depths of the soul, a ripple stirred in the silent consciousness, beginning to recall.
In an instant, countless scenes flashed rapidly by—these were the fragments of Fu Hua's life up to this point.
Each scene held a precious memory, now surging like a tidal wave into the silent consciousness, being greedily absorbed and fused.
The "Ego" quietly appeared and said softly, "They are all you."
Before the words faded, the "Super Ego" followed up, "They were all once you."
Seeing this, the "Id" urged, "They're all part of you. Understand? There's no time to waste. If your brainwaves leak out, he will find out soon..."
[He?]
The "Id" reminded, "Otto Apocalypse. Finish reading your memories. He's near the end."
The "Ego" slowly explained, "He's the Overseer of Schicksal, your old friend, the only one who knows you're still alive..."
However, the "Super Ego" clearly held a different opinion, cutting in coldly, "A liar. A murderer..."
Hearing the other two sides argue, the "Id" couldn't help but feel helpless and shouted, "Can you all talk later? Look where we are now!"]
[Magical Girl] Theresa, 〈Are you sure this doesn't lead to split personalities?
Thinking of how the original voice actress voicing Fu Hua was practically talking to herself in every voiceover session, Fu Lin answered,
"I don't know if Fu Shi will end up with split personality disorder, but I think voice actress probably will."
Fu Shi, 〈...〉
[Shenzhou Tablet] Fu Hua, 〈...〉
[Miss Lily] Otto, 〈Celestial Immortal, I once thought there was only a transactional relationship between us. I didn't expect you to consider me an old friend deep down. You really... I could cry. If you're willing, I can kneel in front of you right now and perform a dramatic weeping apology.〉
[Shenzhou Tablet] Fu Hua, 〈No... no need.〉
Fu Shi, 〈Old antique, why are you in such a hurry to refuse? I'd love to see Otto kneeling and crying his eyes out.〉
Tesla, 〈The Overseer of Schicksal kneels on the street to apologize to Celestial Immortal—The real reason behind it is...〉
[In the video, the consciousness within the body listened to the "Id" and opened its eyes wide.
As the vision gradually cleared, it found itself inside a life support pod, surrounded by cold, slippery liquid embracing its body.
At that moment, several clusters of bubbles slowly rose around the body, gently drifting past its vision and floating to the top of the water.
The "Ego" explained, "This device is sustaining your life. He seems to have healed all your injuries—including that one."
Upon hearing this, the "Super Ego" slightly softened, "Perhaps this was his way of atoning."
But the "Id" scoffed at the idea and retorted disdainfully, "More like imprisonment, if you ask me."]
