But he did it anyway.

And in the future... he will definitely continue to do this kind of thing.

Su's previous words were not lies.

He still believes that what pioneers should do is treat this generation equally and work with them to find ways to combat the Honkai.

However, this does not mean that Sue would agree with some of the usual practices of this generation.

He felt this wasn't his problem.

After all, apart from Gray Serpent, who was not human and was an old acquaintance from the same period, the high-ranking officials of the other two organizations were too abstract.

Moreover, the key point about Otto is that he is truly capable.

But precisely because he truly possesses the ability and has mastered the method of using the Void Archive, he is also the most ruthless when it comes to scheming against people.

Normally, even if an ordinary person wants to do bad things, the destructive power is only so-so.

But Mr. Otto is really capable.

So when this capable person changed their action plan to "let things Honkai and kill anyone who notices it," a huge problem arose.

Welt Yang, who was unreliable in terms of management but not bad in terms of combat strength, has been brought to the brink of death by Otto's intentional or unintentional actions.

Alas, Elysia went to great lengths to pave the way for the future.

If she were alive today, seeing Mr. Welt's current miserable state...

Even I don't want to delve any further into this issue.

Mr. Otto, Mr. Gray Serpent, and even I am just a ko on the chessboard.

But now, someone I can finally entrust with the Thousand Worlds Annihilation has finally appeared.

Mr. Lin Yu.

Although he is an Avenger who wants to take revenge on the Honkai, this is not a big problem.

Hua is trying to dispel the darkness in his heart.

Moreover, the people around him are all trying to care for him to some extent, trying to help him move on from the past.

He himself was not completely consumed by revenge. While fighting against the Honkai, he cared for his comrades, loved his family, and even tried to save other innocent people.

Of course, there's another crucial point—he's really good at fighting.

After Hua taught him the Tai Xu Sword Qi, he was able to develop so many terrifying moves suitable for his own combat through his own efforts.

About two months ago, he was just an ordinary special agent.

But when I noticed him, he was already much stronger than Kevin was back then before the Fusion Warrior Project was implemented.

He's in a good mood, has considerable strength, and most importantly, there's room for improvement. Plus, he's smart and not a bad person.

It can be said that, compared to Mr. Otto, who specializes in manipulating the mentality of his own people, Mr. Lin Yu is clearly more suitable to be the successor of this Divine Key.

My time is running out.

If I can maintain this state of observing other worlds for another year, my life will probably burn out.

Mr. Lin Yu... If he doesn't find this place within this year, then I will go and find him to test whether he can make the right choice.

At the same time, the Far East Branch.

During the week that Otto forced Lin Yu to stay at the Schicksal Headquarters, Lin Yu did get some rest.

But that doesn't mean he has nothing to do all the time.

When Lin Yu went to find Dr. Mags, he discovered that Dr. Mags had turned into a nagging, "Why didn't I die? Why did I survive?" mode.

In order to have more and better serum to use in the future, Lin Yu spent an hour using persuasive language to... no, it was more like admonishment!

After persuading Dr. Mags for an hour with his rhetoric, he successfully turned the old man, who already wanted to atone for his sins, into a workaholic mode by arguing that "dying is escapism, living is atonement."

In the days that followed, he even encountered several fearless challengers at the Schicksal Headquarters.

He could tell that some of the A-rank Valkyrie who came to challenge him were actually Otto's agents, sent to highlight and test his strength.

But some people... Lin Yu felt that these Valkyrie probably really had some mental issues.

Even the most clichéd things, like the clueless sycophants in lowbrow novels or the suddenly appearing "Lord Lin Yu's Fan Club," have all appeared this week. I don't know if this world is weird or too weird.

In short, after a week that was neither too busy nor too leisurely, Lin Yu returned to his dormitory at the St. Freya Academy alone.

After he opened the dormitory door, the first person he saw was...

—At this moment, Fu Hua pushed up her glasses, her eyes flashing with a cold light.

"Major Lin Yu, congratulations on your promotion to S-rank Knight."

Wait a minute, something doesn't feel right about this sentence.

Murderous look!

What a terrifying murderous aura!

Looking at Fu Hua, who was radiating murderous intent, Lin Yu couldn't understand why she had entered such a terrifying state the moment he stepped into the room.

"What's wrong, Major Lin Yu?"

At this moment, Fu Hua glanced at Lin Yu in front of her and said with a smile.

"Lin Yu, please sit down."

"Or would you like me to make you a cup of tea?"

"No."

After entering the room, Lin Yu spoke with a strong and calm demeanor.

"I'll sit, I'll sit."

Wow, that's scary.

If I hadn't known she genuinely cared about me, I would have really thought she was going to kill me.

At that very moment, Lin Yu even saw a character introduction template suddenly pop up in front of him.

Name: Fu Hua

[Identity: One of the Thirteen Heroes of the Previous Era, the Crimson Heron Immortal of Shenzhou, A-rank Valkyrie of Schicksal, and your master.]

Current favorability rating: 55

[Note: Don't be afraid, her killing intent isn't directed at you.]

No, no, no, I haven't seen her at all this week, yet my affection level for her has inexplicably increased by 5 points????

I wasn't afraid of her murderous aura, but the fluctuating data really scared me.

Sigh, I have no idea what you're worried about. I've already told you, the taste of being an immortal—

Can you please shut up for a moment?

[You obtained the Jizo Mitama on March 16th, and went to see Otto on March 17th. Today is March 24th, 2014, a Monday.]

[This is a weekday, and this system is following the rules this time!]

Okay, I understand.

Ignoring the system's next words, Lin Yu immediately focused all his attention on Fu Hua.

Fu Hua, standing before Lin Yu, also suppressed her killing intent and let out a helpless sigh.

Last week, after she finished lecturing Lin Yu and took Xiola to Theresa's office, Lin Yu went to Singapore to rescue Yuno.

Of course, Otto publicly claimed that "Knight Lin Yu easily defeated the Herrscher of Death in five minutes," but as someone who had fought against the Herrscher, Fu Hua, who wasn't an idiot, obviously couldn't believe such nonsense.

Looking back, Fu Hua concluded that Otto was behind it all—there are no coincidences in this world!

Because of Otto's machinations, Lin Yu was forced to step onto an even more dangerous battlefield.

It was precisely because of this that Fu Hua unleashed an uncontrollable killing intent the moment she saw Lin Yu.

She didn't want to kill Lin Yu; she was simply completely fed up with Otto's rhetoric and rhetoric.

So annoyed that he wanted to punch the opponent's Soul Steel Dog head to pieces.

Of course, Fu Hua, realizing that her mindset was off, immediately suppressed this thought.

But at the same time, she suddenly felt as if she heard another voice in her head.

What's wrong with this idea?

Otto?

I'm going to take down Otto!

Chapter 165. The Constraint Herrscher, will he arrive so soon?

Regarding the noise she was hearing, Fu Hua only felt that she was too tired.

Admittedly, hearing some unusual sounds in one's mind could be a sign of awakening as Herrscher.

However, Fu Hua felt that if the Honkai were to choose someone to become Herrscher, they definitely wouldn't choose someone as difficult to control as Herrscher.

Those who become Herrscher must first have a tragic experience, and only after falling into despair will they become Destroyers who allow Honkai to dominate them.

Although Fu Hua didn't think she was that powerful, she still felt that she wasn't so easily controlled by the Honkai.

In this situation, if Honkai were to give her a core, it would be considered an act of aiding the enemy.

However, seeing Fu Hua's absent-minded state, Lin Yu suddenly had a bad feeling.

As someone who often gets distracted in front of others and is then misunderstood as 'not listening to me at all,' Lin Yu is all too familiar with Fu Hua's absent-minded state.

Although he thinks and reads very quickly when he talks to the system, he still experiences a degree of mental confusion.

Fu Hua's current state clearly matches his usual state of exchanging barbs with the system.

In addition, Fu Hua herself is the designated Herrscher Candidate of Knowledge in the storyline.

Holy crap, Wendy hasn't even been saved yet, and my hometown is going to catch fire first???

Don't panic, this system guarantees that the next one will definitely not be Herrscher of Reason.

Oh, that's good... my ass!

Your words are completely unsettling! (╯‵□′)╯┻━┻!

[What else can we do? This system can only remind you of certain things to a limited extent; it can't use future vision to see into the future and then tell you the strategy.]

[Besides, the variables surrounding you, this visitor from another world, are too outrageous. This system can see the future one second, but that future might not be valid the next.]

The system's assessment is: don't overthink it; what's meant to happen will happen—but warning signs don't mean it will erupt immediately.

After all, cancer is classified into early, middle, and late stages, right?

Your words are not comforting at all.

After all, this system isn't here to comfort you.

[Every time you spot a spark on the prairie, you immediately imagine a wildfire spreading, then you start self-torturing and become a spineless coward to solve the problem.]

[Your inner self-regulation ability is so strong that you don't need this system to help you adjust your state at all.]

Thank you so much for thinking so highly of me.

"Lin Yu."

Seeing Lin Yu's consciousness begin to waver, Fu Hua, who had regained her senses before Lin Yu, let out a sigh of utter helplessness.

"How much of what I said a week ago actually you listened to?"

Seeing Lin Yu suddenly show an expression as if he had just woken up, Fu Hua felt a little uncomfortable.
