Leaving Only You

As for Lin Yu, who had just spent half an hour having sex with Anna, he only spoke to Li Sushang after forcibly activating the Mirror Mind.

"What's wrong? Why are you suddenly looking for me? Has something happened at Schicksal Headquarters?"

Is there even a slight possibility that they came to catch their partner in the act?

Give me a break! This kid likes Otto. What business is it of hers if Anna and I are in love?

[Liking Otto is such an old story. After realizing that the person she admires is a super monster who almost destroyed her hometown and actually betrayed the entire organization, do you think she'd be this clueless?]

As for...

In the original story, she already knew that Otto was a scoundrel, but she still insisted on fighting for Otto.

It's true that she's grateful, but I highly doubt that this so-called gratitude is, to some extent, just an excuse she made to do things for her sweetheart.

No one knows the truth, and perhaps that's true, but...

You don't exist in the original story.

[In this version, she already knew Otto wasn't a good person, and you even used the Illusion Lantern - Sword God to subtly enlighten her beforehand. Then, just when the Honkai was about to Honkai its core, you conveniently appeared and launched a verbal attack.]

For someone with a mental age similar to Anna's...

Oh right, I forgot about that.

As the system mentioned this, two character introduction templates popped up in front of Lin Yu's eyes.

Name: Li Sushang

[Identity: The third S-rank Valkyrie of Schicksal, the Herrscher of Dominion, and your junior apprentice.]

Current favorability rating: 59

[Note: Although she probably won't admit it herself, all you have to do now is snap your fingers and say a few sweet nothings... hehehe, and you'll have your sworn brother, the bread-making apprentice, all in love!]

Name: Wendy

[Identity: Your junior sister, A-rank Valkyrie of Schicksal, Herrscher of Wind.]

Current favorability rating: 65

[Note: She doesn't mind if you have a harem, she just wants you to bring her along to Bed.]

No, I think that's all I'll do when I meet them...

This was my second time meeting Li Sushang and my third time meeting Wendy. Was this sudden surge in affection a little too much?

Do you remember that Rita and Bianca's favorability towards me was 60 and 55 respectively during the Changkong City incident and the Nine Nether turmoil?

The numbers have been inflated after the version update, haven't they?

Regarding this matter, should I emphasize that Raiden Mei's affection level towards you has surged to 90 after the incident in Changkong City?

[These two girls are in a similar situation to Raiden Mei, except they haven't been through as much mental strain Cocolia, so their emotions at the end aren't as strong as Raiden Mei's, and naturally, their favorability ratings are just average.]

[As for Rita and Bianca's favorability rating, the system already mentioned that the anger had subsided.]

The problem is, the anger may have subsided, but the resentment won't disappear so quickly—you know how women are.

I don't quite understand; this level of favorability makes me feel very conflicted.

[You've already decided to be a scumbag, and you just slept with a pretty girl, what's there to be complicated about?]

In situations like this, what you should do is—make two identical Suns!

Although you haven't been saying much lately, hearing these words from you has made me feel a little more at ease.

That's great. Even though the world is accelerating in the worst direction, at least you're still the leader.

Do you know why this system is suddenly saying all this?

It's precisely because the world is accelerating in the worst possible direction that you need to cherish every single day!

Wow, that's such a philosophical statement.

But I already know what you're going to say next.

What should I say?

I said three, two, one?

[It's a straightforward solution.]

Okay, one.

To cherish every single day—

Host, you should hold a developer conference—that's what I mean, right?

[Sodayo, everyone in Schicksal thinks 'Lin Yu is 100% going to take over after killing Otto,' you're the boss now, so what's wrong with continuing to play music and dance?]

... Yes, now that things have come to this, if I say I don't want to Bishop of Schicksal, it seems like everyone will just think, 'Oh, Lin Yu is just being modest again,' or 'He must be joking.'

But it is precisely because I am now destined to assume the position of bishop that I must fulfill the responsibilities of a bishop.

If one only enjoys the benefits of being a bishop while shirking responsibility, what difference is there between him and an animal?

So, what do you think you should do now is...?

Of course, it's a man who sleeps around.

[???]

The cannon in "mouth cannon".

Oh, that's all.

"Um, senior brother."

After seeing Lin Yu suddenly fall silent for a short while, Wendy asked somewhat uneasily.

"Are you... still 'battling' your Herrscher Persona, just like Mei and the others said?"

Can I say that my so-called 'Herrscher Persona' has always been a scapegoat?

Before I fully completed the second stage of my awakening, he was the one who paid the price for all the emotions that were washed away.

"Don't overthink it. I'm perfectly fine right now."

After saying something that made the two of them even more uneasy, Lin Yu spoke softly to them.

"If you need to find me, you'll have to wait a bit."

"Now, I'm going to see someone."

"Thinking about it carefully, it's about time. This man should be waking up by now."

Listening to Lin Yu's speech, Wendy felt that something was off.

No, wait a minute, now two beautiful girls come to you, and you tell us you're going to see a man.

Although my senior brother is definitely not wrong, why...?

—I feel like something's not right.

Hopefully it's photoshopped.

Chapter 306. You're the only one missing.

In the dimly lit space, Chen Tianwu, who had been walking through it, felt as if he had forgotten something important.

Not only that, he even had a vague feeling that he was afraid of something.

Even though it was pitch black all around, Chen Tianwu found that his body seemed to be instinctively on guard against something.

Be wary of something suddenly leaping out of the darkness and turning you into a dried persimmon on the spot.

Then...

—His greatest fear had come true.

In the darkness, a little girl with long silver hair, expressionless, rode a motorcycle straight out of the shadows.

Before Chen Tianwu could react, he was run over by the terrifying-looking motorcycle.

As his mind was violently shaken, Chen Tianwu regained his consciousness out of fear.

As he gradually recalled what had happened before, Chen Tianwu suddenly felt as if he was about to fall into a dark space once again.

However, he knew very well that although fear still lingered in his heart this time, it was not because of the motorcycle.

"Tianwen... Tianwen!"

Seeing his sister die before his eyes, Chen Tianwu cried out her name, clutching his head and roaring.

Even though he was injected with half a vial of HSN Serum by Bronya, Chen Tianwu's body was still gradually being tainted by despair once again, and the energy fluctuations of Herrscher, which only Herrscher possess, began to appear.

However, just as he felt a sound in his ear, a feeling of weakness suddenly overwhelmed his entire body.

The ominous power emanating from his body seemed to be completely suppressed by something when this feeling of weakness struck, and it actively retreated back into Chen Tianwu's body.

What surprised Chen Tianwu even more was that, after his power was suppressed, he felt...

—He didn't seem so desperate anymore.

As a high-ranking talent who had the opportunity to become World Serpent cadre and was regarded as a 'useful tool' by the Gray Serpent, Chen Tianwu was a smart man to begin with.

If he hadn't been suddenly pulled into the Dominion Theater and his mind hadn't been secretly disturbed by the Honkai Consciousness, Chen Tianwu would have easily seen through the disguise of the puppet 'Chen Tianwen'.

Now, with Lin Yu having deployed Constraint Barrier, Chen Tianwu's Herrscher energy was suppressed, and his intelligence naturally took over.

No, Tianwen... that's not Tianwen at all!

Although Chen Tianwu had only learned about the Honkai from some underground channels, at this moment, he made a judgment with absolute certainty.

Damn it, these problems must be Honkai the Honkai!

"Mr. Chen."

After noticing that Chen Tianwu had calmed down, Lin Yu asked Chen Tianwu calmly.

"Are you calm now?"

"... It seems you know my name."

Upon seeing Lin Yu for the first time, Chen Tianwu immediately realized that the young man, who was close to his own age, was very likely an important figure.

If the other party can call out your surname, it means that they must already know your identity.

No, that's not all. He may have already investigated all my personal information.

When I woke up, I was in a hospital bed and no one was watching me. This means that either the other party was not worried about me causing trouble, or they really didn't consider me an enemy.

Based on this information, I can infer that the probability of them being hostile towards me is not high.

That way, I can at least feel a little more at ease.

After analyzing the current situation, Chen Tianwu immediately tried to suppress his panic and put on a calm demeanor before speaking to Lin Yu.

"Thank you for your help, but—may I ask your name?"

"To be the one who was rescued and not even know the life or death of one's benefactor is really quite impolite."

"Okay, relax, you can just call me Lin Yu."

After gesturing to Wendy and Li Sushang behind him to be quiet, Lin Yu walked over to Chen Tianwu and found a chair to sit down.

"However, since Mr. Chen has come to this realization, I will just speak frankly and directly."

"We are high-ranking members of the anti- Honkai organization [Schicksal]. We have determined that Mr. Chen can become a force against the Honkai, so I personally extend an invitation to him."

"If possible, Mr. Chen could consider joining our Schicksal, which would be beneficial to both of us."

"..."

Although Chen Tianwu still doesn't understand the current situation, that doesn't stop him from taking this opportunity to make his demands.

The other party's attitude wasn't high; at least in Chen Tianwu's eyes, they were the kind of person who was 'easy to talk to on the surface'.

So now, what Chen Tianwu needs to do is, of course,...
