This Child is Terrifyingly Powerful, He Absolutely Cannot Be Kept Alive! (cont.)

"However, the fact that Hua was chosen by the Honkai to become the Fifth Herrscher... that surprised me a bit."

"Yes, I was quite surprised as well, but it is absolutely true!"

"I believe in the intelligence you've gathered, and precisely because of this..."

Having made his decision, Kevin stretched out his right hand behind him.

With this action, the Greatsword of Annihilation, which had been cooled down, suddenly seemed to awaken its own consciousness and flew into Kevin's hand, where it was reactivated.

"I need to find some time to meet with him."

"I can't just listen to your side of the story. I'll make a specific judgment after I meet him."

If what Gray Serpent said is true, then Lin Yu was able to accelerate the Honkai, which is enough to prove that even the Honkai felt threatened by his existence.

Killing him... that would do me no good, nor would it benefit humanity, so of course I would never do it.

But even if he is a promising talent, both other humans and the World Serpent need more time to fight against the Honkai.

According to our calculations back then, the day of the Finality was about three and a half years away.

However, judging from the current speed at which the Herrscher manifests, let alone three and a half years, even three months would be considered good.

The World Serpent is now in a semi-paralyzed state due to Otto's previous focused attacks.

If we want to carry out the Stigmata Plan, the World Serpent, which has exhausted its resources to save me, is not enough.

Time...

Unfortunately, this is exactly what we lack most right now.

Let's meet with Lin Yu first, and then make some plans.

But before that...

"Gray Serpent, during the 1,500 years I was trapped in the Quantum Sea, my condition was not very good."

Kevin, who had picked up the greatsword, looked at Gray Serpent, who had already stood up, and asked him a question.

Where is Chiyou's body?

"In fact, Chiyou's body has never been moved in the Nine Nether of Shenzhou."

Hearing Kevin's question, Gray Serpent said with great shame.

"Your subordinate is incompetent; all I can confirm is that Chiyou's body was not moved by Schicksal or the Shenzhou."

"It's alright."

Facing his subordinates, Kevin offered words of comfort in a detached tone.

"You've done a great job in the face of this complex situation."

"Your subordinate dares not."

Faced with Kevin's comforting words, Gray Serpent felt a deep sense of guilt.

"If I hadn't made the wrong judgment back then, the World Serpent would never have been destroyed to this extent by Otto Apocalypse because of the leak of information."

"My Venerable Lord, besides Lin Yu, you must also be careful of Otto."

"Although he has reached a cooperation agreement with our World Serpent and has indeed been of great help in liberating you, in my eyes he is still someone who cannot be trusted!"

"I understand."

After Gray Serpent mentioned this person, Kevin thought for a moment and immediately changed the plan he had just made.

"Then I'll contact Otto Apocalypse while I'm preparing to go to Shenzhou."

"According to you, after that man used such a heavy hand on the World Serpent, he still had the audacity to help. He must have some ulterior motives."

"After meeting him, we might obtain some valuable intelligence and benefits."

Schicksal Headquarters. Bishop's Office

Inside the office, Theresa sat in a specially designed booster chair, looking at Lin Yu was completely unharmed, and wondered if she had worried too much before.

But that's not my problem!

Who would have thought that Lin Yu would so easily knock Wendy unconscious on the ground after she turned into Herrscher Wendy?

After thinking for a moment about her battle with the Herrscher, Theresa sadly realized something.

If she were facing off against other Herrscher, she definitely wouldn't be able to win so easily now.

Theresa, who possesses the Key of Restraint, is considered one of the top three to five warriors in terms of combat power within Schicksal.

After activating the Divine Prayer Barrier, a deadly technique that injures the attacker before injuring the user, even if Theresa manages to catch the Herrscher off guard by taking advantage of the information gap that the Herrscher is unaware of Oath of Judah having such a deadly technique, she can at most achieve a one-for-one exchange with this self-destruct attack.

As for someone like Lin Yu, who can easily defeat and neutralize Herrscher...

Durandal wouldn't do something like that, would she?

"Um, Bishop Theresa."

Seeing Theresa scrutinizing him with a subtle look, Lin Yu asked uncomfortably.

"I've already uploaded the mission report to the database. If there's nothing else..."

"I'm talking about Lin Yu."

Seeing Lin Yu preparing to retreat on the spot, Theresa suddenly sighed helplessly.

"I know you're strong enough now, so sometimes I don't have to worry about you too much."

"But your mindset problem is getting more and more serious."

Theresa had, of course, read the report that Lin Yu had submitted.

Just as Lin Yu submitted his report, Mike, the pilot who was traveling with Lin Yu, also submitted his report.

However, the report submitted by Mike was not a report on this mission, but rather his personal application to the organization.

Based on Mike's statements in the report, he suspected that Lin Yu's mental illness was somewhat serious.

In the following text, Mike used about two hundred characters to describe just how important Lin Yu was to Schicksal, and ended the report with "I earnestly request headquarters to allow Lin Yu to see a psychologist".

Theresa felt that reading Mike's report only made her head spin even more.

Everyone living in Himeko's house knew that Lin Yu had a mental illness.

Originally, although everyone was worried, Lin Yu himself really didn't like wasting time seeing a psychologist, so no one said much.

Now—even pilot Mike, who has been working with Lin Yu all along, can see it—that is enough to show that Lin Yu's condition has not only not improved, but is also deteriorating.

For Theresa, who treats Lin Yu as family, how could she not be anxious as Theresa watches her nephews and nieces become increasingly ill?

"This..."

Facing Theresa, whose face was full of worry, Lin Yu said helplessly.

"I really feel like I'm in great shape. You're probably overthinking it, Bishop."

Still making excuses, still making excuses.

If you're really in good shape, would someone like Mike, who doesn't usually interact with you much, suddenly start tattling on you?

However, Theresa knew at that moment that using a tough attitude would be useless.

Lin Yu is someone who is obviously more responsive to gentle persuasion than force. If Theresa were to pressure him to go to the psychologist now, even if Lin Yu didn't say anything on the surface, his rebellious nature would prevent him from cooperating with the doctor's examination.

Ugh, my head hurts so much.

Lin Yu is a great person in every way, except that he's really bad at self-regulation.

I need to think of a way to make him behave a little.

Meanwhile, Lin Yu, who was ostensibly looking at Theresa, was actually already communicating with Su using the dual-wielding technique he had inexplicably learned.

As for why the two can talk without meeting, don't ask, the answer is that the mental Fusion Warrior is invincible.

In the future, Su will be able to communicate with its companions on other planets even across incredibly vast distances.

Even for Su, who hasn't ascended yet, communicating with Lin Yu through mental energy isn't actually that difficult.

In conclusion, Mr. Lin Yu, I am very sorry.

Because we underestimated Mr. Otto's boldness, we didn't anticipate that he would hand over the Plague Gem to Mr. Gray Serpent, which resulted in Kevin still managing to emerge from the Quantum Sea.

Sigh, I guessed it the moment Wendy floated out.

But even though I guessed it, the current situation... gives me a terrible headache.

After Kevin emerged from seclusion, it was almost inevitable that he would go to find Chiyou's corpse and devour it to regain his power.

In other words, after we eliminate the threat of Chiyou, we can at least ensure that Kevin's recovery speed will be slightly slower.

Mr. Lin Yu, I understand what you mean.

However, using the power of the Void Key to move Chiyou's corpse is actually quite difficult.

What's going on?

The Thousand Worlds Annihilation can't even move Chi Chiyou? Are you kidding me?

Unfortunately, that's just how it is.

[Chiyou You has undoubtedly been killed after your core was shattered, but just now, I went to Shenzhou to check.]

[Even though Chiyou was supposed to be dead, he has now started consuming everything around him again, just like before.]

[If we were to attempt to transfer it using the Thousand Worlds Annihilation technique, the transfer would likely fail due to Chiyou's ability to absorb the surrounding Honkai Energy.]

Seriously, what's going on here?

Today?

[Today.]

[In fact, I suspect this matter is directly related to the Honkai.]

Yes.

Although there is no evidence, the fact that the supposedly dead Chiyou suddenly regained some power makes the idea that the Honkai was Honkai it all seem plausible.

Otto still hasn't shown up, so we'll have to keep up the act.

"Yes, I think so too. But this time, I met with Mr. Otto in Haiyuan City, and he knows I don't want Kevin to leave seclusion."

Therefore, we can use this opportunity to 'temporarily' reach a cooperation agreement in front of others, and then you can let me use the Void Key, saving you time.

Great, then it's decided.

I'll call Mei, Yuno, and Bianca later, and we'll go together to grind Chiyou to dust.

The Herrscher of Thunder, who possesses the power to disintegrate things Herrscher of Death, who possesses the power of decay; Bianca, who can wield the Black Abyss White Flower; and me, who can use the Blank Key.

If we evaporate Chiyou as quickly as possible, Kevin won't be so strong if he can't eat sashimi...

Sigh, even if Kevin isn't that strong, we still have a tough time against him.

Otto, that scoundrel, is still lurking in the shadows.

Yes, Mr. Otto... Once he starts acting without any scruples, it will have a huge impact on our plans.

[But now, there's no other way. Even if Mr. Otto is a heartless person, we can't just sit idly by just because he's hiding.]

"Lin Yu."

Theresa, completely unaware that Lin Yu was multitasking, said to Lin Yu with a helpless expression after thinking for a few minutes.

"You're a father now. Even if you don't care about yourself, you should at least care about Xiao Yi's feelings."

"This child is definitely the most sensible and well-behaved child I have ever met, but no matter how well-behaved she is, she is still just a child."

"She also wished her father could be by her side, but the child was too well-behaved, so she suppressed this thought."

Seeing that Lin Yu remained expressionless, Theresa spoke to Lin Yu in a helpless and earnest tone.

Even if you don't consider yourself, you have to consider the child's feelings.

"You are a father now, and you should shoulder the responsibilities that a father should bear."

You are a father now, and you should shoulder the responsibilities that a father should bear.

To be honest, Lin Yu basically ignored what Theresa had said before, letting it go in one ear and out the other.
