Even someone like him who doesn't understand the hearts of girls knows very well that at this time, trying to reason with a girl is definitely an unwise choice. Rather than the so-called truth, what Mei Raiden needs is for him to stand firmly on her side. But before the store manager could fully express his position, Rita's voice, full of laughter, like that of a funny person, suddenly rang out again. "So, Ms. Mei, Rita has a proposal here." She walked around the store manager's body and focused her charming wine-red eyes on Raiden Mei's eyes. Her voice was full of kindness and sincerity: "I can tell you frankly that for some reasons, I have made up my mind to completely commit myself to the store manager's little brother. Unlike the forced situation of Lord Yulandel, I will become his thing wholeheartedly." "??" That gentle and calm voice, like a thunderclap, exploded in everyone's ears. "Li, Lita, what do you mean by this?" Youlandel was dumbfounded. Her upright face, which had always remained calm even in the face of a huge army, was now filled with shock. "Didn't you just follow me in? What does it mean to... become his wholeheartedly???" "No, that's not right!" Suddenly, Yulandel shook her head fiercely as if she remembered something, and asked a question that Rita had just asked her not long ago in a trembling voice, "You... said you are Rita three years later, then the Yulandel next to you... does she know what you are doing now?!" "I'm sorry, Lord Yulandel. Even if they are not the same person, I don't want to lie to you." Rita sighed faintly. "Lord Yulandel from three years ago was abducted by a powerful enemy after encountering him. He has left Rita's side."
"So, I need strength. I need the strength to stand beside Lady Yulandel and support her." Rita said firmly. Yulandel was completely stunned. "No... No, you... calm down!" She grabbed the shoulders of Rita from a different world and shook her hard, "How can I... the me who follows you accept this? --- !!!!!" "I am calm, Lord Yulandel." Rita smiled and grabbed Yulandel's hand that was pressing on her shoulder, with a slight smile on her face. "Do you think that I made this decision entirely because of the situation?" "Isn't it?" Yulandel was stunned. "Unfortunately, that's not the case." Rita smiled, and her tone suddenly became a little depressed. "After all, even someone like me would feel lost if my feelings were not responded to for a long time~" "......!" Youlan Daier's hair tingled, "You...you figured it out?" "Although I don't know the specific situation on your side, and how you learned about my feelings for you, since Lady Yulandel three years ago could not accept Rita's feelings, then Lady Yulandel three years later should be the same." Rita let out a long breath, she turned her face, gently touched the manager's armpit with her soft and boneless substance, and smiled slightly, "So, although I feel a little sorry for Lady Yulandel, you won't stop me from pursuing a new relationship, right?" "And what a coincidence, this lovely little store manager is quite suitable for Rita's taste. After all, he is the lover chosen by another 'Rita'. I also believe that after cultivating feelings for each other for a period of time, I will definitely be glad for today's choice." The store manager said with a bitter face: "Well, what about my opinion?" "Do you have the heart to reject Rita's embrace?" Rita smiled calmly, her beautiful wine-red eyes full of teasing. "..." The manager stopped talking. "You should at least give some rebuttal!" Mei Raiden couldn't help but open her mouth, raised her hand, and tapped the manager's forehead lightly. "..." Yulandel opened her mouth, but couldn't even utter a word of rebuttal. "Well, it's not a good idea to just stay here like this." Rita stretched out her arms, gently held the manager's face, and chuckled, "Shall we start now?" Just as the four people in the bedroom started the second round of long-term battle. Changkong City in 2013. Sky City in 2017.
In these two worlds belonging to different time and space, Otto Apokalis, who also firmly sits on the position of Bishop of Destiny, is now caught in an extremely absurd mood. In 2013, in Changkong City, the Destiny airship floated in the air. Rita, who had been hiding in Yulandel for six hours, stood in the main control room. Ominous premonitions attacked her mind wave after wave. "Still can't contact Youlandel?" On the screen in the main control room, Otto narrowed his eyes slightly, and his tone of voice had a hint of gloom that had not been heard for a long time. "Yes, ever since Lady Yulandel's signal disappeared in the ruins, I have been unable to contact her again." Rita's pupils were filled with anxiety and worry: "Your Excellency the Bishop, is that cafe that cannot be observed by us really not part of your plan?" "I have already answered this question once. If possible, I also hope that the cafe you mentioned is part of my plan, but unfortunately, I really know nothing about that cafe." Chapter 5: Rita: Ready to Start Sending (k) Otto's brain was actually a little confused. Most of the time, Bishop Tianming is not someone who minds taking the blame. He is not a patient like Fu Hua who suffers from hyperthymesia and can remember clearly everything he has done in the past five hundred years. For a ruler like him whose actual social status has long been at the top of the world, every decision and every move he makes may affect thousands of people. Besides, Otto knew his own nature. To him, everything in the world, even himself, could be said to be a tool for him to revive Kallen. It was not surprising that he would do anything inhumane to a tool. So if someone stood in front of Otto with a hateful look on his face and shouted, "You bastard, give me your life!", he would probably accept it calmly... and then tell his men to get out of here without changing his expression. Anyone in this world has the right to hate him. These "anyone" include Yulandel, whom he personally trained, Theresa, whom he raised, and even Rita, the successor of "Ragnar Lodbrok", who influenced many people... Because no matter who they are, in Otto's hands, they are just tools that can be abandoned at any time to resurrect Kallen. From the moment he viewed them as tools, Otto was prepared to be hated by them. But at the same time, Otto also believed that at this moment when he had already ruled this world, there was no one in this world who could judge him. Even if he was judged by someone one day in the future, that so-called "trial" and the person who judged him must have been the drama and actors he had prepared long ago, and were the necessary price he had to pay to resurrect Kallen. He originally thought that he was mentally prepared to face any doubts. Even if Rita turned against him one day because of Yulandel's matter and stood against him, Otto probably wouldn't be surprised... ...Until Rita suddenly said something he was completely unaware of, and her expression even showed a hint of admiration. Otto was completely stunned when he heard Rita praising him in a confident tone, "Congratulations, Bishop. The experiments conducted in Changkong City have achieved phased results and realized complete control over the Herrscher's consciousness." I conducted an experiment in Changkong City? What experiment? When did it happen? And that experiment had achieved some initial results? And it had also achieved complete control over the Herrscher's consciousness? Otto actually knew that a Herrscher was suspected to have been born in Changkong City. After all, last night, the monitoring satellite of Tianming detected a very strong Honkai energy fluctuation. The wavelength of that Honkai energy fluctuation had more than 80% overlap with that of the Judgment-level Honkai beast Benares, who was endowed with the power of thunder by Xilin thirteen years ago. It is almost certain that something unexpected happened to the Conquest Gem on the side of Anti-Entropy. Otto didn't know the exact whereabouts of the Conquest Gem, but Changkong City was one of the cities controlled by ME Society. With his intelligence network, he was of course aware that ME Society was actually one of the research institutes under Anti-Entropy. So Otto didn't feel too surprised about the sudden appearance of the Conquest Gem in Changkong City and the suspected loss of control of the Conquest Gem. He even felt a little gloating. Adhering to the fine virtue that what's mine is mine and what's yours is still mine, Otto immediately realized that this was a great opportunity to snatch the Conquest Gem from Anti-Entropy. Although he was not particularly greedy for the power of thunder, and the Gem of Conquest was not a necessary tool for resurrecting Kallen, the Herrscher Core was a rare strategic asset. It might be dangerous and deadly to ordinary people, but for a parasocial organization like Sentence that had already conducted a general study on the Herrscher Core, it would certainly not be too little. Moreover, even the reason for this action was quite rare and stood on a high moral ground - can you really go against entropy? Researching a conquest gem has led to an uncontrolled collapse disaster. In order to prevent the collapse energy leaked from the conquest gem from causing damage to Changkong City, and to protect the lives and property of ordinary residents of Changkong City, on behalf of all residents of Changkong City, I will bring the uncontrolled conquest gem under the jurisdiction of Tianming. Do you accept this? Well, Leader of the Anti-Entropy Alliance, you can't manage your subordinates well, which poses a threat to the lives and safety of millions of residents in Changkong City. Then let me help you manage it?
This righteous reason can be said to be impeccable from any angle. Even if Walter Yang himself questioned him, he probably wouldn't be able to say a word of objection. To put it bluntly, the Mandate of Heaven sent two S-class Valkyries to Changkong City to protect the lives of millions of your residents. It would be too much for Anti-Entropy not to express gratitude for the assistance of the Mandate of Heaven. How dare you question Otto? You treat the lives of millions of residents of Changkong City as worthless, right? Therefore, when Otto sent Rita and Yulandel to Changkong City, his mood, which had become quite bored due to a long period of doing nothing, finally stirred up a wave of interest. Coincidentally, on the way to Changkong City, the experimental subject K423, who had wandered all the way from Siberia to Changkong City for some unknown reason, was sent to little Theresa's nose. Given that little Theresa cares deeply about Cecilia, when she sees K423 she will definitely treat "Cecilia's biological daughter" as her own. Although Otto had not had much contact with subject K423, based on his understanding of Siegfried, as long as subject K423 stayed with Siegfried, she would definitely have the opportunity to awaken Siegfried's soul, which had fallen into silence due to the deaths of Cecilia and "Kiana". At that time, Siegfried, with his passion reawakened, will certainly give subject K423 a moral education that is in line with Kaslana's values. After Siegfried's education, subject K423 will inevitably form a set of values based on the principle of altruism. This set of values will give her the motivation to become a Valkyrie, the behavioral attitude to actively build emotional bonds with others, and the Kaslana family's noble belief of being willing to sacrifice oneself to protect others - all of this will become a solid foundation for the "Sirin Plan" he formulated. Because she received and accepted Siegfried's Kaslana-style education from her heart, Subject K423 would certainly not refuse to become a Valkyrie who fights for all the good in the world. Because of the extroverted personality shaped by this education, Subject K423 would certainly build an indestructible emotional bond with her peers, teachers and elders during her Valkyrie training at St. Freya's Academy. At this point, as long as he slightly catalyzes the Herrscher consciousness in Subject K423... then the next development would be quite clear. Those who have established a bond with Subject K423 will fight for her without hesitation until they sacrifice their own lives. As long as there are casualties in this process, Subject K423's noble belief in sacrificing herself to protect others will turn into the sharpest blade and tear apart the heart of the Herrscher's consciousness. In order to allow the experimental subject K423 to control the power of the Herrscher with a human heart, Otto can be said to have used everyone as chess pieces. In a sense, the person who trusts Kiana the most in this world is neither Siegfried nor Theresa, but he, who has always regarded her as an experimental subject, because the series of experiments he conducted on Kiana all led to the final result that "Kiana will definitely control the power of the Herrscher of the Void". Just in terms of his trust in Kiana's ability to control the power of the Herrscher, perhaps even the people from Anti-Entropy and Theresa and the others are not as good as him, the one who planned everything. However, even if Otto really believed that subject K423 could control the power of the Herrscher, that time shouldn't be now, right? "Would you like to recount what you saw last night?" Feeling confused for the first time in a long time, Otto felt something was wrong and immediately questioned Rita who had reported to him. However, the answer Rita gave slowly did not answer his doubts at all, but made him even more confused and bewildered. A cafe that no one except Yulandel can see? In that cafe, there are several little Theresa's, an alter ego of Rita, and even a girl who looks exactly like the Silin in the historical records? The manager of that coffee shop used just his two brains to control the Herrscher of Void and Herrscher of Thunder who were about to lose control? Honestly speaking, when Otto first heard this weird news, he even thought that it was because the maid was too worried about all the big and small things for Yulandel, and it was an illusion caused by excessive fatigue. If this was the case, he would not be angry about it, and would even generously prepare a few weeks of vacation for this overly busy maid so that she could restore her spirit during the vacation. But the problem is that Rita was not the only one who confirmed this information, but also Yulandel, who would never make a mistake in such a matter. Moreover, compared to Rita and the others who "cannot see the cafe", Yulandel has even entered the cafe in person. However, for some reason, this upright and strongest knight refused to tell about her specific experience in the cafe. For some reason, since she came out of the coffee shop this morning, Yulandel had gone Spartan, and had been frantically exterminating the Honkai disasters that had occurred around Changkong City. Her fist-to-flesh fighting style was like she was venting her anger, which made people like Otto a little frightened. He even suspected that Yulandel had suddenly learned about her true life experience. But if that was the case, then the first place she should appear was right in front of him? What was the point of getting angry at those innocent Honkai beasts? Although Otto has always regarded everyone in the world as tools to resurrect Kallen, humans have different attitudes towards tools. A CNC machine tool worth tens, millions or tens of millions is a tool, and a hammer worth a few dollars is also a tool. So, even though Yulandel showed an unprecedented extremely uncooperative attitude towards his questioning and even lost her temper, Otto really had no good way to deal with Yulandel who was losing her temper, so he could only choose to get as much specific information about the cafe as possible from Rita's mouth. The result is at this moment... ...Yulandel, the most powerful female Valkyrie who could be said to be invincible in the world in Otto's opinion, is gone. Is it really in the literal sense? When she suddenly ran to Changkong City, from a certain moment on, the surveillance satellites that completely covered the earth's surface could no longer capture the image of Yulandel. At the same time when she lost her trace, her personal communicator also completely cut off the signal from the outside world. The last image she left in the satellite was of her sneaking up behind a silver-haired girl and knocking her out with a shot from her knight's gun. Theresa was also standing on the ground.
Then, the three people disappeared inexplicably. To be honest, if that were all, perhaps Rita wouldn't be so worried about Yulandel's condition. Although she and Theresa were not familiar with each other, she knew that this senior who founded St. Freya's College would not harm Yulandel. However, ever since she walked out of the cafe, Yulandel's condition was really not right. No matter how she asked, the captain, who had never hidden anything from her, refused to tell her what had happened in the cafe. Rita took the initiative to mention the matter of the cafe to Otto in order to confirm whether the cafe that she could not see was trustworthy. Unfortunately, the answer given by Otto made her heart rise all of a sudden, and she had ominous premonitions one after another. Now, about an hour has passed since Yulandel disappeared, and the anxious Rita finally arrived at the scene where Yulandel disappeared. The image of the cafe could not be captured by electronic equipment, so it could only be observed with the naked eye... To be honest, due to last night's experience, Rita didn't actually expect to be able to see the cafe, but when she walked to the edge of the transport ship suspended in the sky, the scene that came into her eyes stunned her. No wonder Lady Theresa would suddenly disappear... Looking at the coffee shop standing in the middle of the ruins, Rita said to herself in her heart, and her heart was relieved a little. If she still couldn't see the cafe, then no matter what happened to Yulandel, Rita wouldn't be able to make any effective response. Now, the cafe finally appeared in her sight. Although she didn't know why it suddenly appeared and why she could see it, no matter what, as long as she could see the cafe, then at least she would not be without any means to interfere with the affairs of the cafe. After confirming that she could also see the cafe, Rita immediately returned to the main control room and gave the transport ship the landing order. "Wait, Rita, don't go into that cafe yet." The communication with the main control room was not cut off, and Otto, realizing what Rita was about to do, immediately spoke out to stop her. "We know nothing about that cafe. You have confirmed its existence with your own eyes, which means that other people must have seen it. Theresa, who entered the cafe with Yulandel, is the best example." "I will set off from the Tianming headquarters soon and will arrive in Changkong City in forty minutes. You stay where you are. I will handle the matters of Youlandel myself." Otto said in a deep voice. For some reason, he always had a feeling that if Rita disappeared here, then Rita would most likely be like Yulandel, Theresa and the others, and completely out of his control. In order to prevent the situation from reaching a point where he had no choice but to move on, Otto, who had always been known for his strength, chose to maintain stability for the first time in a long time, and made the decision to personally handle the series of events that occurred in Changkong City. But it was obvious that Rita, who had been hiding from Yulandel for half a day, had already lost her usual calmness. "I'm so sorry, Your Excellency." Under Otto's somewhat gloomy gaze, Rita bent down slightly, shook her head, and spoke in an apologetic voice. "Since this cafe is not owned by God, nor is it part of your plan, then every minute that passes since Yulandel entered the cafe is equivalent to one minute more of us allowing Lady Yulandel to encounter an unknown situation." "As the Bishop of Heaven's Fate, you need to coordinate the overall situation. I understand that you cannot focus all your energy on Yulandel, but as Yulandel's personal maid and adjutant, Rita cannot be as rational as you." "I hope you can understand." After saying that, without waiting for Otto's answer, Rita disconnected the communication between the two parties and walked out of the door of the transport ship with heavy but firm steps. On the Destiny Floating Island, looking at the dark screen in front of him, Otto couldn't help but hammer the desk in front of him hard, and he had the urge to swear for the first time in a long time. It was clearly only less than twenty-four hours, but everything that happened in Changkong City was completely out of his control. Chapter 3 "They Forgot to Close the Door" (k) Compared to this Bishop from 2013. Bishop Otto, who had already set out from the Mandate Headquarters in the morning and had now arrived at the Sky City, encountered an even more difficult predicament. Before leaving, he was actually in a very good mood.
Compared with Bishop Otto from three years ago, in today's world, the "Sirin Project" is nearing its end. As the holder of the Void Manzang, Otto was very familiar with Yu Duchen's abilities. He knew very well that when he shot Fu Hua, she would definitely use Yu Duchen's zeroth rated power to transfer her consciousness to Kiana. With Fu Hua's assistance, it is probably only a matter of time before Kiana can successfully control the power of the Herrscher. Therefore, for Otto, everything the cafe manager did was quite unexpected, but not so unexpected that it was incomprehensible. Before arriving in Skydome City, Otto was very confident.
