As a knight of the organization, I must go make an end to this

"But Bianca, think about it yourself. If I told you this directly, what would be your first action?"

Hearing Lin Yu's calm words, Durandal felt that although the anger in her heart had not subsided, she could not vent it on her calm friend in front of her.

If Lin Yu tells me about this, then my reaction will naturally be...

"Go find the bishop and ask him what happened, right?"

"So, what happens after that? What kind of future do you think we'll be facing?"

"The reason the bishop lied was simply because he didn't want others to know about the beastly things he had done in the past. If we knew these things, the chances of us being forced to make things difficult for him in the future would be much higher."

"If I don't say anything, what you do every day will still be beating up Honkai Beast, and what I do will continue to be taking action against the Honkai."

"Telling the truth will bring disaster, while concealing the truth will allow us to continue to fight against the Honkai with the power of Schicksal."

"My personal judgment is that you definitely don't want to start an internal conflict with Otto at such a critical moment, which would prevent you from eliminating the Honkai in time. That's why you made the choice to 'find the truth at the right time'."

"Now that your mother has come back to life and Otto is missing again, you have plenty of time to talk to your mother and time to calmly think about your future course of action."

"In my personal opinion, this is the best time for you to know the truth."

"You don't need to regret it too much. After all, after you joined Schicksal, it was less about helping Otto and more about fighting the Honkai in your own way."

"You have worked very hard as a Valkyrie over the past few years."

"You have absolutely no reason to feel ashamed for being deceived by that scoundrel Otto. On the contrary, you should be proud of saving so many people without causing any major mistakes."

"I've said all I need to say. If you're still angry, you can punch me in the head a couple of times. After all, I did hide a lot of truths from you that you should know."

"... never mind."

After hearing Lin Yu's explanation, Durandal's anger—of course—was still not appeased.

However, after Lin Yu calmly explained the intricacies and implications that she had not considered, Durandal, who forced herself to calm down, could naturally see that Lin Yu was truly looking out for her, which was why he hadn't revealed this information.

Sigh, if I had known about these things before the bishop disappeared, and assuming I wouldn't suspect Lin Yu, there's a very high chance I would have rushed to the bishop's office to get to the bottom of things.

At this point, if the bishop doesn't want these things to get out, the probability of him starting to target me and Lin Yu, the sources of information, is not low.

Having realized that Lin Yu was comforting Durandal, Durandal naturally stopped trying to vent her anger on the innocent Lin Yu.

Rather, after realizing that Lin Yu had always been thinking of her, Durandal, who had released Lin Yu's collar, felt that...

—I feel a little embarrassed about myself.

Meanwhile, Durandal at Lin Yu, looked at Cecilia, whose face was full of worry, and suddenly remembered something.

After becoming a special agent, Lin Yu only had three familiar faces besides his companions from St. Freya: Durandal, his mentor in special operations, and Rita.

Rita is Lin Yu's adopted sister, and according to Rita 'Rita own casual conversations, her parents live in a city called Kolosten, which is within the territory of Schicksal's influence.

Having gained a profound understanding of Otto's character through her mother's words, Durandal immediately realized why Lin Yu dared not let Otto know that Lin Yu already knew some inside information he shouldn't have known.

If Otto knew that Lin Yu had already grasped these inside stories, then Otto would either take direct action against Lin Yu or use other people to threaten Lin Yu.

If Rita has the ability to protect herself, then if Otto intends to choose hostages, there is a very high probability that he will choose Rita's parents.

It turns out that Otto's goal from the very beginning was not to 'protect' Rita's parents.

This guy...

Just how badly are they going to harm our families?!

I've checked, the tags are all real. jpg

Chapter 259. As a knight of the organization, I must settle things once and for all.

At this moment, Cecilia felt a sense of relief as she watched Lin Yu easily resolve some of her daughter's inner conflicts with a few words.

From the moment she met her daughter, Cecilia was torn about whether or not to tell her the truth about what happened back then.

Even after she finally told her daughter these shocking facts, Cecilia was still very worried that her daughter would fall into depression because she couldn't accept the truth.

However, Lin Yu, who was watching all of this, seemed to have known this would happen all along, and used words that sounded like they had been prepared in advance to soothe his daughter's heart.

Admittedly, if we examine Lin Yu's words closely, they cannot be said to be entirely without fault.

But right now, when her daughter is experiencing emotional turmoil, what she really needs is affirmation from others.

Even if Lin Yu's words had some flaws at this moment, as long as he could soothe his daughter's heart, these problems were not a big deal.

As for Lin Yu, after confirming that Durandal was feeling a little better, he looked at Cecilia.

"Mrs. Sania, you just met Kiana again, you must have a lot to say to her."

"Mr. Welt, Mr. Sue and I have other things to discuss, so we won't disturb you any longer."

"As for Bianca..."

Looking at Durandal with her complicated feelings, Lin Yu suddenly smiled and said to Durandal.

"We'll be leaving soon, so you can cry and be spoiled in your Mom's arms without worry."

"I won't cry!"

Looking at her slightly angry daughter, Cecilia suddenly felt a little worried about her daughter's future.

Actually, apart from the little girl over there who was still completely clueless about the situation, the remaining Sue, Cecilia, and Welt all clearly realized that Lin Yu was just saying strange things to distract Durandal.

Faced with Lin Yu's attempt to change the subject, Durandal was easily fooled.

Lin Yu's actions were for her daughter's good. Logically speaking, Cecilia, as a mother, should be happy that her daughter has such a good friend who cares about her.

But...

Sigh, Kiana is so easily fooled. If she continues to associate with Mr. Lin Yu, he'll definitely be able to completely deceive her if he has that kind of idea.

Because of Siegfried's mistake, this child has been without anyone to accompany her for so many years, and no one has taught her in this regard.

The only 'elder' she was close to happened to be that bastard Otto.

The thought of her daughter living such a life filled Cecilia with heartache, and she hugged her daughter even tighter.

"Mom?"

"Kiana, let's talk somewhere else. Let's not disturb Mr. Lin Yu while he's doing his business."

"I can do serious things too," Durandal wanted to retort to her mother.

However, the warmth emanating from her mother's embrace ultimately led the strong-willed girl to choose to obey her mother's decision at that moment.

After watching Kiana and Cecilia leave in front of everyone, Welt glanced at Seele, who was still confused about the situation, and whispered to Seele.

"Seele, you have two friends recuperating at Anti-Entropy's base. Let me take you there to visit them."

"Huh? Really?"

Upon hearing Welt's gentle words, Seele instinctively looked at Lin Yu, trying to seek Lin Yu permission.

Black Seele, having sensed Seele's inner thoughts, could only feel...

Ah, that's even more hopeless.

[Seele, you're an independent person! Why do you need to ask your friend's permission before you go see them?]

Hey, but Brother Lin Yu worked so hard to rescue us...

This was so easy for him, he didn't put in any effort at all!

In short, Brother Lin Yu rescued us, and it would be impolite of him to just leave like this.

"Go in peace."

Sensing the questioning look in Seele's eyes, Lin Yu spoke to Seele.

"Alliance Leader Welt is a good man; he won't harm you."

Hmm, hard to say, after all...

After all?

Black Seele wanted to say, "If your mother would use you for human experiments, what good things could Anti-Entropy possibly have?" but considering that it would be too painful for Seele's emotional scars, she swallowed those words back.

There's really nothing we can do.

Even if I wanted to leave now, there are still people here...

Although admitting defeat is not my style, judging from the intensity of energy they inadvertently exuded, even if we include that white-haired fat woman and the golden-haired fat woman, we are the weakest.

Although I don't want to entrust my life to these people who don't know their true intentions, it's better not to make enemies with them for now.

After emerging from the Quantum Sea, Black Seele realized that even outside, she was still not in control of her own destiny.

To be honest, she felt that with the Stigmata and her help, Seele and her partner should be considered very powerful Honkai Energy warriors in this world.

But since meeting Lin Yu —how come everyone he knows is such a formidable fighter?

With doubts arising in her heart, Black Seele did nothing and let Seele follow in Welt's footsteps.

After everyone had left, Lin Yu and Su exchanged a glance...

—At the same time, he let out a helpless sigh.

"Mr. Lin Yu, you've really worked hard."

"I'm alright, but Mr. Su, who's been running around the whole time, is the one who's really working hard."

However, the two who sighed at the same time knew very well that now was not the time to relax.

Ah, all the girls are gone.

[Host, this is really not a good thing to do. When Durandal needed comforting, you could have easily taken advantage of the situation and won her over.]

At this point, why are you still outputting in this direction?

[Besides Durandal, Seele's gaze towards you has been off for a while now. It's buy one get one free, aren't you going to buy it?]

No, isn't now the time to get down to business?

[Let this system see—this is actually your true feeling?!]

You damn dog!

If I don't roll, I'll turn into a dead dog. So I not only have to roll, but I have to roll both my personalities at the same time!

This system has seen plenty of people who veer off from serious matters to timidity after just a few words.

[However, this system has truly rarely seen anyone who can smoothly transition from timidity to serious matters in just a few words, and even so naturally.]

After all, the situation is really bad right now.

After I return, judging from the actions before the Honkai, He will inevitably create even more major problems.

Given the current situation, Honkai is starting to micromanage → We must solve the problem → Once we solve the problem, we will inevitably be able to subdue or win over more Herrscher → The faster we deal with the Herrscher, the faster that day will come.

As for the claim that the Cocoon of Finality is still more than three years away from full recovery— the Honkai has accelerated to this point now, who knows if the Cocoon of Finality will just forcibly awaken and start to amplify itself.

"Mr. Lin Yu, how much do you understand about the current situation?"

Seeing Lin Yu deep in thought, Su asked Lin Yu a question.

"Miss Bianca, did I tell you about the current situation on the way here?"

Yes, but not many.

Recalling what he had seen before, Lin Yu felt his head was spinning.

"Kiana, something's happened to her, right?"

"Yes, not only that, Miss Kiana also took the Void Key."

"Mei and Yuno were in poor condition due to their battle with Kevin, and on that day, Kiana's Herrscher Persona took away their cores."

Listening to the information Su gave him, Lin Yu felt...

—Ugh, so annoying.

Although the timeline and major events don't match up, the Conquest of Thunder and the Tranquility of Death that were absorbed by Sirin in the original story can still return to Sirin's body.

What a bizarre convergence of world lines!

From a practical standpoint, even with three cores, Sirin is not an insurmountable enemy in the face of the current Schicksal Anti-Entropy Alliance.

In the original story, Sirin was able to go on a killing spree because Otto bewitched Durandal, telling her that the sacrifices wouldn't be too many, thus stopping Durandal from participating in the battle.
