Are the youths of this era all monsters?! (cont.)

Kiana herself is unaware of the vast difference in skill between Kiana and Lin Yu.

But if even Lin Yu can't defeat an enemy, then even if Kiana fights desperately against them, she'll probably only die even faster.

"You bastard... Never mind! Hang in there, senior, we're going to find Yuno now!"

After glaring fiercely at Su, Kiana supported Lin Yu and whispered to her daughter behind her.

"Xiao Yi, let's go. Don't stay with this dangerous guy."

"OK."

After responding obediently to her mother, Lin Yi turned around and glanced at Su, who was standing at the entrance of the Thousand Worlds Annihilation.

At this moment, Su could sense that there was not a trace of hatred in the girl's eyes for him, the 'enemy' who had beaten up Lin Yu.

Watching the family of three walk away, Su returned to the Thousand Worlds Annihilation, rubbing his extremely painful cheek. At this moment, he felt that something was not quite right.

Mr. Lin Yu's daughter... That's strange.

Even if an artificial human's mental development is faster than that of a normal toddler, the way she looked at me...

She won't realize that Mr. Lin Yu and I are just acting, will she?

Are our acting skills really that bad?

They couldn't even keep it from one child?

If that's the case, then we should be prepared for Mr. Otto to see through our tricks.

Sigh, there are so many problems, and many of them are caused by humans themselves.

Kevin, I'm sorry.

If you come out this time, it will only make the situation more chaotic.

As I had in mind, I did not want the Lin Yu Stigmata Plan to continue.

So, my friend, I'm sorry.

No matter how hard your subordinates try, I will not give you the chance to return to this world.

A few minutes later, at the Schicksal Headquarters...

In the lounge, Theresa looked at Lin Yu, who had just returned to Schicksal Headquarters and been beaten up, and felt that the things she and Himeko had discussed needed to be added to the schedule.

Just yesterday, she directly contacted Himeko, who was waiting at the Far East Branch, and told her to bring all the girls from her family and Xiola to Schicksal Headquarters to report for duty.

Originally, Theresa wanted to wait for Himeko to arrive today to discuss how to hand over the position of Archbishop of Schicksal to Lin Yu.

As a result, Lin Yu went to Shenzhou to learn about the situation of Chiyou's corpse and then returned to the Schicksal Headquarters.

After returning to the Schicksal Headquarters, he immediately went to the Thousand Worlds Annihilation and found Su, with whom he had a falling out, wanting to say something.

As everyone knows, Lin Yu and Su got into a fight, and Lin Yu was beaten up by Su.

"I'm talking to you..."

Seeing Lin Yu's injuries healed by Yuno's power, Theresa really didn't even have the strength to be angry.

Sigh, this child, despite being from the Apocalypse clan, seems to have almost the same drive as the Kaslana clan...

Oh, me too, that's okay then—wait a minute!

I have the blood of the Kaslana clan!

But he's just an ordinary person!

After realizing this, Theresa asked Lin Yu in an annoyed tone.

"You've already clashed with that man named Su once before, why are you going to find him again when you have nothing better to do?"

"I just feel that Anti-Entropy and World Serpent both have long-distance teleportation devices, while we Schicksal are at a disadvantage because we don't."

Recalling the script he and Su had made up during their battle, Lin Yu continued speaking to Theresa.

"Later, I thought of something. Since the Void Key is an item created from the core of the Herrscher of the Void, it should have the ability to teleport instantly."

"At the time, I thought that although Sue and I didn't get along, she should still be a senior who stood on the side of humanity."

"If we could make peace with him and get him to lend us the Thousand Worlds Annihilation, we wouldn't be in such a passive position."

"But—this old Deng actually said something like 'If you don't pass the test, you can't be used.'"

After saying that, Lin Yu clenched his fists and muttered to himself in great annoyance.

"The situation is so urgent right now, who has time to worry about performance evaluations!"

"So you ended up fighting with him?"

"Yes, that's right, it was just an accident."

After exhaling a breath of stale air, Lin Yu said helplessly.

"I will never again have even the slightest bit of wishful thinking about that man."

"This guy... tch, Bishop Otto was really too foolish to entrust him with a portion of the authority of Schicksal."

Although the words were meant to condemn Otto, Amber, who was then serving as the bishop's secretary, secretly wrote them down after hearing them, intending to send them to Otto at some point.

Yes, although Lord Lin Yu was dissatisfied with Lord Otto's actions, he was genuinely considering the issue from the perspective of Schicksal.

Indeed, the possibility of Lord Lin Yu and Mr. Su joining forces is practically nonexistent.

However, at the same time, another white-haired woman present had a completely different idea.

Oh, not Theresa.

Of course, it couldn't be Kiana either.

The two people who care about Lin Yu now feel that Lin Yu still likes to act recklessly and they need to find a way to put the brakes on him.

The white-haired woman who noticed something was wrong at that moment was Lin Yi, whose face was filled with worry and whose heart was also filled with concern.

When Kiana started pulling her in that direction today, she felt something was wrong.

As the daughter of Kiana, Lin Yu, Yuno, Lin Yi gained the ability to teleport after her mind matured a little.

After Lin Yu warned her not to use this ability in front of others, Lin Yi thought about some things and finally came to a conclusion.

Kiana's Mom never used this ability → Dad knows I have this ability → Dad doesn't want Kiana's Mom to know she has this ability.

It was precisely because of this conclusion that she had previously not wanted Kiana to move in the direction of Thousand Worlds Annihilation.

Because she could sense that the power she possessed was similar to that of the Thousand Worlds Annihilation.

If her Mom went to that place and sensed this, she might recall some things her Dad didn't want to be revealed.

After meeting her parents, Lin Yi had already gained a general understanding of them.

My Dad's brain is clearly better than Kiana's Mom and Yuno's Mom combined, so now... I can only trust his judgment.

As for Dad and that gray-haired grandpa...

It seems there's absolutely no hostility between the two of them.

So, was their fight purely an act?

That can only mean that there are two people in this place whom they must deceive.

First, we can rule out Theresa's grandmother; deceiving her wouldn't require such a convincing performance.

Then, excluding the aunties living at Himeko's grandmother's house, Dad definitely believes them too.

So now...

After sensing Lin Yi's gaze shift to her, Amber, who was still thinking about how to report the situation to Otto, asked Lin Yi with great curiosity.

"Little one, what's wrong?"

"... Well, it's nothing, Grandma Amber. I just think you and Grandma Theresa look a bit alike."

Well, after thinking about it for a long time, it turns out that the only person Dad and that grandpa wanted to deceive was Grandma Amber.

Or rather, Grandma Amber and the people around her are the ones Dad really wants to target.

Ah, I always feel like the environment around Dad is quite complicated.

As an ordinary kid, I'd better not say anything out of line at this time.

I don't have the acting skills of my Dad and the gray-haired grandpa. If my actions cause problems for Dad's plans...

Even if my Dad doesn't blame me, I'll blame myself.

Meanwhile, Haiyuan City

Haiyuan City, Welt, having just finished dealing with some matters, sat relaxed in his office, closing his eyes wearily.

In essence, Welt Young wasn't exactly a hardworking scribbler.

The reason he became so busy...

The main reason is Otto, and the secondary reason is...

What a load of rubbish secondary reasons!

If Otto hadn't killed his father and caused the death of his heroic older brother, would he need to be this busy now?!

Thinking about all the unpleasant things that happened in the past, Welt, who wanted to relax, found himself unable to rest.

Just yesterday, a huge fluctuation of Honkai Energy suddenly appeared at the Schicksal Headquarters.

Meanwhile, the Anti-Entropy members who were lying in wait at the Schicksal Headquarters were very lucky to have survived and managed to send the message back to the Anti-Entropy Headquarters.

Now that Otto is missing, Theresa is temporarily taking over as Archbishop at Schicksal Headquarters, and Schicksal's policy has completely shifted to prioritizing the fight against Honkai Beast.

No matter how you look at it, Welt should think all of this is a good thing.

However, as a victim of Otto's misdeeds, Welt could be said to have already developed a stress response in some sense.

Otto was missing, Schicksal functioning normally again, he relaxed...

—If we really relax at this moment, Otto will definitely not let any opportunity pass and will show Welt what kind of bad consequences will come from carelessness.

Otto usually stays at the Schicksal Headquarters scheming against others, is annoying, but that's all he is.

After Old Deng disappeared, things went completely wrong.

Otto, who took the initiative, punched Welt fourteen years ago, which ultimately led to the escape of the Herrscher of the Void, Sirin, who obtained four Herrscher Core and nearly destroyed the world.

Fourteen years later, Otto went into hiding again. This time, if he chose to make a move, Welt felt that, given Old Deng's nature, he would definitely cause something even bigger.

Having this premonition in his mind, Welt opened the intelligence screen and prepared to contact Raiden Ryoma.

In that instant, Welt suddenly pulled out the Star of Eden that he had prepared beforehand and looked in a certain direction with extreme vigilance.

"Mr. Welt, it is very good that you have such vigilance."

Su, who appeared here using the Thousand Worlds Annihilation, looked at Welt, who held the Divine Key, and smiled calmly at Welt.

"Seeing your attitude, I feel somewhat relieved."

"Mr. Su..."

Upon seeing the man appear before him, Welt immediately relaxed a little.

"Ha, that's true. In the end, you're the only one who knows the coordinates of this place and has the ability to teleport over long distances."

"Is there anything else you wish to tell me about your visit today?"

No, that's not the case.

After casually finding a chair to sit down, Sue's smile faded, and she spoke to Welt in a very serious tone.

"Recently, I have noticed that Kevin's subordinates have been acting strangely again. In my opinion, they cannot give up the idea of saving Kevin."

"Therefore, I think that now that Mr. Otto has disappeared, rather than staying in Schicksal, I should come to Haiyuan City and ambush those fools who have not given up their obsessions."

"... Could things really be that serious?"

"Well, I even hope that Mr. Welt can give up your shift system with Mr. Siegfried and let Mr. Siegfried stay in Haiyuan City as well."

Hearing Su's words, Welt had no doubts and immediately sent a message to Siegfried to "return to Haiyuan City".

After all, the other party was the man who bestowed the divine medicine upon him and Siegfried. Given that this benefactor was free to come and go as he pleased and had the opportunity to ambush him but did not, Welt naturally did not harbor too much suspicion towards Su.
