Fu Lin excitedly asked, "Elysia, since it was forged from Herrscher cores, then Avalon must exist too, right? And Gate of Babylon, Heaven's Lock, Enma Blade, Kyoka Suigetsu, all of them, right?!"
Elysia, 〈Yes, Fu Lin, yes, there are nine such Divine Keys in total... huh? Why did I just say something so strange?〉
---------------------------------------
As the video paused, Fu Lin spoke,
"Hi hi, originally the video should have ended here, but I promised Kallen to show Otto's death, so let's keep watching."
Kallen, 〈Thank you, Mr. Fu Lin.〉
[With the Herrscher of Domination eliminated, Fu Lin disappeared once again, and Kiana☆, in suddenly high spirits, enjoyed a rare period of peace and happiness.
Until Otto suddenly made a shocking decision, he revealed the existence of Honkai to the public, and announced his resignation as Overseer, with Theresa succeeding him.
This news was like a bombshell, stirring up a huge uproar around the world. The leaders of Anti-Entropy and Theresa were also baffled by Otto's move.
However, with Otto's intentional hints, they still made their way to Kolosten Town.
As the plot progressed, Otto's plan gradually came to light.
When he connected with everyone via communication, he suddenly asked whether Welt was also present, and the following words utterly disgusted the Anti-Entropy members.]
...
Just like that, after Otto cut the signal, he began executing his plan, while Tesla couldn't help but curse loudly.
[Sit-ups King]Welt, 〈!!!!〉
Einstein, with a helpless shake of the head, sighed, 〈They say a dying man speaks kind words, but even at this moment you can't forget to disgust others, huh?〉
[Miss Lily]Otto admitted his fault, 〈Hahaha, truly sorry, those words were indeed a bit excessive. I deeply apologize for what I said in the video, and hope everyone in Anti-Entropy won't take it to heart, after all... I hold no malice toward you now.〉
However, his words didn't get much of a response, as the Anti-Entropy members simply stayed silent.
Seeing this, Otto gave an awkward chuckle, then turned to the most active Dr. Tesla and asked, 〈Why hasn't Dr. Tesla spoken at all? Don't you want to talk to me?〉
Einstein quickly cut him off, annoyed, 〈Otto, shut up! Dr. Tesla's been muted.〉
It was only then Otto seemed to recall Tesla's mute status, a grin spreading across his face as he teased, 〈Oh~ sorry, I actually forgot about that. Dr. Tesla got muted again, and again, and again, my apologies.〉
The Anti-Entropy members stayed silent, the atmosphere momentarily frozen.
Einstein pushed her glasses up, mercilessly mocking, 〈With a mouth that toxic, how come you didn't poison yourself licking your lips?〉
Theresa rubbed her forehead helplessly, urging, 〈Grandpa, just say a bit less!〉
...
At Anti-Entropy HQ, Tesla's face turned crimson with rage. She slammed the table furiously, like a spicy crayfish provoked into a fight, cursing,
"I ***** Otto that ***** Einstein, don't stop me! I'm going to Schicksal HQ right now to ***** Otto! I won't let that b***** off!"
Einstein nodded, "Sure, but wait until the livestream ends."
...
[Not long after, Otto's projection reappeared before everyone, announcing to all aboard the Hyperion a shocking piece of news, he would reverse time, going back five hundred years.
This news struck like a bolt of lightning out of a clear sky, leaving everyone utterly stunned.
However, Otto didn't seem inclined to give them much time to process it, cutting off the transmission on his own.]
Einstein, 〈This is your plan? Reversing time, and even making a deal with the Will of Honkai? That's… absurd.〉
Kallen, 〈Otto, what's the price of reversing time?〉
[Miss Lily]Otto, 〈...The death of an evil man, and the Honkai itself will cease to exist.〉
Everyone, 〈???〉
Kiana, 〈Seriously?〉
[Miss Lily]Otto, 〈Half true, half false, hahaha, keep watching, the video will give the answer.〉
...
[After a brief shock, everyone quickly calmed down, realizing they had to act to stop Otto's insane plan.
After careful discussion, Theresa decided to split into three groups.
One group was Kiana☆ and Fu Hua. This pair had always been perfectly in sync, so Theresa naturally trusted them.
However, their path forward was unexpectedly blocked, by Li Sushang.
Li Sushang stood in the middle of the road, barring their way.
Faced with Li Sushang's obstruction, Fu Hua immediately decided to stay behind to handle her, telling Kiana☆ to go on ahead to their destination.
Though Kiana☆ worried about Fu Hua's safety, she knew time was tight and there could be no delay.
So, gritting her teeth, she left behind a "Don't push yourself too hard, be careful" before turning and hurrying toward the church where Otto was.]
Theresa asked in confusion, 〈Sushang, why are you helping Grandpa stop us? Anyone can see the Grandpa in the video is the villain!〉
Li Sushang scratched her head and explained, 〈Uh, well, I owed the Rakshasa a favor before, so I can only help him this time. Otherwise, I would've already stepped in to stop him myself.〉
Li Sushang continued, 〈But, I think having me face Master was intentional on the Rakshasa's part. After all, Master is really strong! Still, being able to fight Master again… is kind of exciting!〉
Watching the livestream, Li Sushang's face showed a trace of anticipation.
Fu Hua, hearing Li Sushang's words, shook her head with a wry smile, 〈Honestly, given my state at that time, I probably wouldn't be your match, I might lose.〉
Li Sushang quickly waved her hands and explained, 〈Master, I know the Rakshasa is a bad guy, so of course I won't fight you at full strength, I'll just help delay you a bit, that's all.〉
At this moment, Fu Shi suddenly cut in, 〈So confident? How about we make a bet?〉
Fu Shi, 〈Let's bet on whether you in the video will use Edge of Taixuan.〉
Fu Shi, 〈If I win, you shout "Long live the great Herrscher of Sentience lady" ten times in Schicksal Square. If I lose, I'll spar with you, how's that?〉
Li Sushang's eyes lit up immediately, excited, 〈Really? I've been wanting to spar with you for ages, Fu Shi!〉
The corners of Fu Shi's lips curved into a confident smile, thinking, 'I know the plot, this bet's in the bag.'
