Father's Love Like a Mountain

"It's really scary that you keep suddenly fainting."

"Of course not—and don't try to change the subject!"

"Okay, I understand."

After watching Lin Yu leave with those perfunctory words, Fu Hua sighed deeply.

She had already hypnotized the other party with the Feathered Dust and placed that suggestion in the boy's mind, but just now, she still saw the thing she least wanted to see.

Even Feathered Dust's hints couldn't erase the hatred he felt for the Honkai...

His obsession had deepened to this extent; if Divine Sound were to further intensify it...

What have I done?

The only consolation now is that Lin Yu may have acquired some new abilities.

After I fell into a coma, I could feel that my physical condition had improved a lot.

Although I can't return to my peak condition, I won't be like before, where I would vomit blood after using Feathered Dust even a little bit.

Lin Yu possesses the ability to heal others' injuries, and considering that he didn't heal me on the street, but he did this time...

So that's how it is. It was Ji Lin who gave him the Stigmata, which granted him this ability?

Even though she couldn't remember those things, Fu Hua suddenly felt a little nostalgic.

Well, with this ability, he can at least guarantee his survival to some extent.

But Otto must never know about this.

Once Otto learns that Lin Yu has the ability to heal others' injuries, and if Otto determines that this will affect his plans, Lin Yu will face additional risks.

He has already been reinforced with his wrong obsession because of my mistake, and I cannot let him continue to fall into more danger.

Find an opportunity to remind Lin Yu... no, let's use Feathered Dust on him instead.

He won't listen to other people's advice because of his mindset, so I have no choice but to resort to such despicable means.

In the past, I failed to protect anything.

At least for now, even if it's just to repay Lin Yu for helping me resolve the chaos of the Nine Nether and protecting the Shenzhou Land...

—I must do everything in my power to protect him.

.

After Lin Yu left Theresa's office, he still felt completely dazed.

Bronya suddenly rebelled against her seemingly glamorous foster mother—at least during those years in the original story, she hadn't done anything so radical.

In the main storyline, Bronya was most disobedient to Cocolia when Joyce Clone attacked Mei, and she retaliated.

What happened next was two years later, when she voluntarily burned the chip inside her brain.

At least in the last two years, there has been absolutely no indication that 'Bronya will actively assist Schicksal in capturing Cocolia'.

Before Cocolia activated the Valkyrie System in 2016, Cocolia still treated Bronya as her beloved mother.

However, now, the Bronya is willingly selling its mother...

Wow, is something this exciting really possible?

And—forty days, damn it, how is time accelerating!

Cocolia's accident and arrest happened three years later, so don't tell me we're going to fight the Finality battle in a few months.

If time keeps accelerating like this, I'm really going to call the police!

Although you keep complaining about these things, you actually know very well—this girl betrayed her beloved mother because of you!

[Think about it, she even abandoned her beloved mother for you—and you disregard this kind of affection? Are you even human?!]

Oh, well said, I almost believed it.

The problem is, system, my system—could you please show me Bronya's character profile template so I can see how much affection I have for her?

Well...

What are you hesitating about?

Okay, okay, this is just a small request, but the system will grant it.

At that moment, Lin Yu was speechless as he looked at the character template that popped up in front of him.

[Name: Bronya Zaychek]

[Identity: A member of Anti-Entropy who was forced to join Schicksal, Cocolia's adopted daughter.]

Current favorability level: 18

[Note: She was skeptical of your proposal, but now, because of Cocolia's actions, she's starting to feel that her adoptive mother is becoming increasingly unreliable.]

Well, okay, although it's a full 80% increase compared to the last 10 points, the problem is—it's still very low, okay?

So what are you talking about this time?

Even with 18 points of affection, you'll bark like a dog. I don't even want to think about what you'll say when your affection level is higher.

[What you're saying is ridiculous. You were enemies from the start. Forty days to jump from negative to 18, is that slow?]

[It's more accurate to say that it's incredibly strange that this naturally intelligent and extremely wary genius girl would develop such a high level of affection for you so quickly.]

Thinking about it carefully, you've probably already completely fooled her, so when are you planning to pat her on the backside?

She's probably crying in bed right now because of betraying her adoptive mother and her missing stepsister, and you still want me...

[It's precisely because she's crying that this system is encouraging you to comfort this little girl, understand?]

—Your system!

That makes a lot of sense...

Looking at it this way, she really does seem quite pitiful.

The adoptive mother tricked her stepsister away, and she can't be found again.

The adoptive mother went on a killing spree in Changkong City, and now her reputation is ruined, so she has to help clean up the mess.

Her adoptive mother is causing trouble in the Nine Nether, and there are signs that she will cause more trouble in the future. She must be about to explode with worry.

To be honest, although she was indeed a vile accomplice in a certain sense, she still looks really pitiful.

Sigh, never mind, I'll go back and check the situation again.

[Seize the opportunity, and once you've built up enough goodwill—think about Bronya future CEO!]

It's still in the future.

The timing of events is accelerating wildly. If the time of the Finality also accelerates, I can only speed up my cultivation in my dreams.

Roll it up, you can roll it up—let's see who can roll whom to death!

No, you really don't need to panic like this.

Is it possible that all of this is just a coincidence or an accident...?

Don't try to comfort me.

I've figured it out now; the original plot can only be used as a reference at most.

Since the appearance of the alien 'Lin Yu' here, the timeline and related events will only change more and more due to the butterfly effect.

Even if I stop moving completely now, the people around me will change because of my existence.

Lying down and giving up won't solve anything.

Even if Kiana is the chosen one, no one can guarantee that she can grow to a level where she can shoulder heavy responsibilities in a short period of time, just like in the original story.

No, no, no, you really don't need to...

[Sigh, never mind, this system won't say anything more. You'd better watch yourself.]

After Lin Yu opened the door, he saw that Yuno was left in the living room, flipping through a book in her hands.

"Are you a senior?"

After hearing footsteps behind her, Yuno spoke to Lin Yu without turning her head.

"Welcome back. How was your date with the Class President?"

"What else can I do after being lectured?"

"Oh, is that so?"

They're not denying dating, so it seems that even if they haven't officially confessed their feelings, both sides are definitely interested.

After reaching this conclusion, Yuno closed the book in her hand and suddenly turned around to look at Lin Yu.

However, at this moment, Lin Yu, who was looking at Yuno, suddenly noticed that the girl's eyes seemed to have suddenly become sharp.

"Senior, Bronya has barely left her room all day."

"Oh, it's okay, I'll wait a bit—"

"That's not what I wanted to talk about."

At this moment, Yuno stared at the boy in front of her and suddenly asked indifferently.

"You've always known that she's Cocolia's adopted daughter, haven't you?"

Why haven't you told everyone about this?

Chapter 138. Father's Love is as Solid as a Mountain

Why haven't you told everyone about this?

Upon hearing Yuno's words, Lin Yu realized...

The girl before me may have become more radical in her inner emotions.

Yuno's past experience with matricide led to severe self-destructive and self-denial tendencies.

At that time, Lin Yu chose a desperate measure, diverting her attention to revenge.

After that, Yuno changed; she became more cheerful, composed, and confident.

At the time, Lin Yu thought that the problems in her heart might gradually diminish or even disappear because of these changes.

But now, Yuno vision has become incredibly sharp, has clearly shown Lin Yu with facts that he has obviously overthought things.

The girl's eyes flashed with hatred, and the killing intent emanating from her was clearly directed at Cocolia, who was not present.

Seeing Yuno's expression, Lin Yu walked indifferently into the living room and sat down next to Yuno.

When did you find out about this?

Well, how should I put it, recently?

Upon realizing that her aura was too intense, Yuno immediately shook her head, composed herself, and calmly addressed Lin Yu.

"Actually, I still vaguely remember those memories from my time in Changkong City."

"I talked to that kid before I fought Bronya."

"After she found out I killed her mother, she looked away."

"Later, when Cocolia was mentioned, the child didn't show any emotion on his face, but there was something slightly off about his eyes."

"Furthermore, after Cocolia's other adopted daughter appeared, I thoroughly investigated Cocolia's records and discovered that she had adopted some underage girls—all of these things combined were enough for me to guess this fact."

See? I told you she sometimes acts more like the team leader than you do!

While luck played a part, you are well aware that the girl before you has grown tremendously in both her mindset and intellect.

This woman is terrifyingly powerful. I advise the general to take her into his service as soon as possible, lest any unexpected changes occur!

So what exactly do you mean by down?

[Of course, it's under my command. This system was just looking up words in the dictionary, so I just typed an asterisk. You don't think I'm making a dirty joke, do you?]
