Chapter 497

Having recalled that incident, Lin Yu left the Devil's Castle and voluntarily went to the moon.

After taking another look at the other person's appearance, Ji Ran finally came to her senses and wondered why she remembered this person.

"Dude, you wouldn't happen to be one of them too...?"

"Don't ask anymore, it's just a dump truck."

The moment the word was uttered, Lin Yu saw Ji Ran's expression become incredibly interesting.

Moreover, he understands the other person's thoughts very well.

After all— Lin Yu, recalling who the other person was, already knew that he and the uninvited guest in front of him were actually among the unlucky ones who were taken away by dump trucks back then.

The reason why Lin Yu and Ji Ran remembered each other was mainly because they had a bond of friendship, having waited together at a traffic light before their deaths and died under the same dump truck.

Before they died, both of them saw the look of terror on each other's faces. The reason Lin Yu recognized Ji Ran before Ji Ran was not because he was more observant, but because his soul had transmigrated.

At first, he thought the system had given him plastic surgery, but after he regained his memories, he realized that it was because his father in this world was handsome enough that his appearance, which was not outstanding to begin with, improved considerably as he grew up.

Although it sounds strange, after realizing that the other person was from the same hometown and was even on the same dump truck, the two, who had never intended to fight, suddenly felt a sense of mutual respect.

However, even if Lin Yu wanted to chat with the man in front of him, it wasn't the right time.

Over the years, after gradually completing the True Fusion with the cocoon, Lin Yu has almost completely mastered this last enemy he could find.

The reason he didn't actively remove the protective shield before was because the power he released at the moment of removing the shield might cause some abnormal situations in the surrounding area.

That's why, without being absolutely certain, Lin Yu still chose to stay in a crater on the moon.

But today, Lin Yu, who had been watching everyone closely, couldn't hold back any longer.

Damn it, someone's trying to cause trouble, and someone's going to get into trouble.

If he continues to stay in the moon because of these things at this time, he probably will regret it for the rest of his life.

"Ah, although I'd like to chat with you a bit more, it seems like now isn't the right time."

Staring at the man before him, Ji Ran suddenly began to loosen his muscles and bones, and at that moment, an even stronger power erupted from his body than before.

"Do you need me to send you back to Earth?"

"Ha, judging from your current performance, this delivery seems a bit too exciting."

"But it's alright."

Although he harbored no hatred for the man before him, just by looking at him, Lin Yu could feel his inner desire to fight growing stronger.

His revenge was over, and after the revenge was over, other desires in his heart naturally took over the portion of his heart that had been occupied by the disappearance of revenge.

Besides wanting to protect his family and comrades, Lin Yu, now a much stronger warrior, naturally yearns for...

— To engage in a thrilling and exhilarating battle with a formidable foe.

Of course, I definitely don't have time to fight right now.

However, if it's just a single move, using the opponent's attack to quickly return to the place of origin while completing an exchange might not be a bad thing.

"Well then, please be careful."

Having already fully condensed his power, Ji Ran unleashed it once again.

"Dominate. The Magnetic Field Rotation 999,999 horses..."

"—Killing Whale-Slaying Overlord Fist!"

"Dimensional Jewel fully activated..."

"—Sea Hai Hu Explosive Fist!"

On the moon, the two, who had no ill intentions towards each other, unleashed their strongest attacks in a desperate struggle.

With the forces colliding repeatedly, one person was blasted into outer space, while the other was sent flying back towards Earth.

After exchanging blows, the two, who were flying backward in a frenzy, had only one thought in their minds.

Damn it—this kid really went for it!

Luckily, I used a heavy hand, otherwise I would have really looked terrible this time.

In this exchange of blows, both men controlled their power and prevented it from spreading outwards.

Although this would cause the person in front of them to bear 100% of their power, it also prevented the moon from suffering a calamity due to the aftermath of their battle.

In addition, Ji Ran noticed something else before he was knocked away.

From the moment he broke through the shield of the Moon Cocoon, he discovered that someone was secretly watching him and Lin Yu.

Moreover, he was certain that the guy secretly watching them was up to no good.

Hey, Kiana and the others said that while I was in a coma for those years, some reckless guys were planning to cause trouble.

However, she underestimated Kiana and the others' strength and was killed by Kiana and Mei working together.

I didn't expect to see this bastard causing trouble again after I got here.

Forget it, this isn't my world after all, so I shouldn't meddle in some things.

She remained inactive, leaving the villains of this world to be dealt with by the guardians of this world.

Hmm, although I sensed that the guy who just flew out wasn't a bad person, this thing feels pretty eerie.

I've seen plenty of tropes where villains hypnotize themselves into believing they're good people. Now, I'm going back to Earth to see if the world really needs me to lend a hand.

Changkong City Suburban Cemetery

In the cemetery of Changkong City, Raiden Mei looked at her companions and let out a soft sigh.

"Yuno, you..."

"Okay, Mei, I'm fine."

After visiting the graves of those who died in the Honkai Changkong City as is customary, Yuno smiled and said to Mei.

"You just saw the news from headquarters. After the protective shield that the senior created on the moon was suddenly broken, the two seemed to have engaged in a subsequent battle, but the battle came to an abrupt end after just one move."

"After the senior returns, he will definitely go back to the Schicksal Headquarters to let everyone know that he is safe and sound."

"It doesn't matter that I didn't go back immediately. You are his... well, actually, you could even be called his wife."

"As his wife, don't you want to see him the moment he arrives?"

Of course I want to, but...

—Don't you want to?

Looking at her friend, Mei really felt that it was very strange for the other person to suppress their inner emotions.

Anyone in the Schicksal Headquarters who knew Yuno and Lin Yu even slightly could tell that Yuno harbored romantic feelings for Lin Yu.

After Lin Yu took the initiative to build a harem, Yuno, a girl who clearly didn't care about Lin Yu building a harem, showed no inclination to be with Lin Yu.

To Mei, nothing seemed right.

"Alright, alright, stop being Mom at a time like this. If you go home late, you won't be the one lying in bed."

Ah, Poison Ivy is changing the subject again.

Yes, she was really in a bad mood today.

But I think this is normal. You haven't forgotten that today is the anniversary of her mother's death, have you?

Of course I haven't forgotten.

Sigh, I can understand Yuno's desire to pray for her mother and visit her grave alone.

She wanted to get rid of me... Oh well, let her have her way.

"I'm not going to bother with you anymore."

After saying that, Mei, as Yuno wished, chose to return to Schicksal Headquarters using the Quantum Teleportation System.

Meanwhile, after confirming that Mei had left, Yuno looked at the tombstone engraved with her mother's name, and an emotion that she would never normally show appeared on her face.

"Mom, I'm sorry. Although I don't think you'd want me to do this, in the end..."

"I still want to complete this final revenge."

Standing in front of her mother's gravestone, Yuno pulled out the Glock G19 she had prepared beforehand and pointed it at her temple.

In this relatively short battle, Cocolia died at Yuno's hands, Otto was killed by Lin Yu, and the Cocoon of Finality had already been suppressed by Lin Yu.

For Yuno, who is a vengeful spirit, most of her enemies are already dead, but she still has one last enemy she hasn't killed.

Yuno, the useless girl who failed to protect her mother; the Herrscher of Poison, the murderer who killed her mother...

In the end, this is the enemy I should avenge the most.

After my power as the Herrscher of Death disappeared, I have returned to being an ordinary person.

Now, even a very strong ordinary person would die instantly if shot in the temple.

Now that my senior is back, I can finally relax, so now...

"Ha, ha, ha ha ha ha..."

Yuno suddenly burst into laughter, and the next second she moved her finger to the trigger...

He pointed the gun at his temple and pulled the trigger.

Part Three of the Postscript: The Final Revenge

As the girl resolutely pulled the trigger of her gun, she awaited death, but in the end, she did not experience the pain she craved.

The girl, who had just closed her eyes, opened them again and saw someone she had longed for day and night, but whom she absolutely did not want to see at this moment, standing before her.

"Senior, what are you doing?"

Looking at Lin Yu, whom she hadn't seen for a long time, Yuno had a lot to say to Lin Yu, but her expression suddenly turned gloomy.

"I, I, I..."

"What do you mean, 'you'?"

Looking at the gun in Yuno's hand that he had broken remotely, Lin Yu said calmly.

"Isn't it normal for me to stop you from doing something stupid?"

I miscalculated.

Gazing at the man before her, Yuno felt her heart being torn apart by a mixture of disgust and another extreme emotion.

I really didn't expect that after returning, my senior would not go to headquarters, but come to my side first.

Before today, I was worried about Xiao Yi, so I couldn't make a decision.

As a result, this became my biggest weakness...?

"I just want to get my revenge."

Undeterred, Yuno pulled a small knife from her waist and roared at Lin Yu with a ferocious expression.

"You guided me onto this path, but after you completed your revenge, you stopped me from fulfilling my wish."

"After you've had your fun, you don't want others to have the same experience—don't you think you're being incredibly arrogant?"

Honestly, after hearing Yuno say those words to him with such resentment, Lin Yu really felt that he might have been wrong before.

In order to help Yuno get out of her predicament quickly, he used a combination of psychological manipulation and guidance, making revenge a pillar of Yuno's mind.

However, his original idea was that after Yuno completed her revenge, Yuno would gradually become a normal person under everyone's influence.

But later... Lin Yu realized that he had made a terrible move with serious consequences.

Having regained his memories, Lin Yu transformed from a cowardly ghost pretending to be a vengeful spirit into a vengeful spirit who was true to his word.

In this situation, preoccupied with his own problems, he simply couldn't pull Yuno back from the wrong path in such a short time.

Moreover, Yuno is truly an outstanding person.
