Chapter 191

"I'm not Kallen," Li Pu said. "Are you offering a multiple-choice question? Sorry, I'm not one of the options."

"You will be one sooner or later," Otto said confidently. "Besides, only children make choices; adults need to be more mature."

I want both!

"Besides," Otto said with amusement, "You..."

"It's also a must-have."

Chapter 220 Flying Together

It seems the situation is getting a bit complicated.

Li Pu suddenly realized something: the plot of this world seemed to have indeed changed because of his actions. This Otto wasn't the Otto from "Kallen Fantasy," but rather closer to the Otto Li Pu knew.

They are so devoted that it's almost frightening.

Throughout history, Otto strived to climb to the highest position of power in the Mandate of Schicksal, using his obsessive pursuit of technology to grant himself near-infinite life. Having held power over the Schicksal for a century, Otto's true, core purpose surprised everyone.

For Kallen!

Otto's core principle was 'everything for Kallen '.

And there may be an additional core member in Otto's operations.

'For Kallen'.

Perhaps it was as if he had foreseen Kallen's eventual sacrifice. Although he was trying his best to help the living Kallen, he also did not intend to let go of Kallen's reincarnation.

Li Pu really didn't quite understand.

Is Otto trying to change Kallen's fate of sacrifice, or does he really intend to have both Kallen?

'This guy... does he want to fly together?' Li Pu suddenly exclaimed in shock, 'Damn it! I'm a man!'

'But why am I still a little envious?'

He'd been in this world for so long and hadn't even built a harem yet! And now, someone was declaring to his face that they wanted to have a threesome with the two sisters.

You are all my wings or something...

I'm so envious!

No, this is absolutely outrageous!

Besides, I'm not exactly sisters with Kallen, am I? We can't even be considered sisters, right? I'm a man!

Who gave you the courage?!

Green Turtle!

You want them all!

"No, I think we should discuss this with Kallen." The more Li Pu thought about it, the more disgusted he felt.

For example, could you be a little more honest with Kallen?

I wonder if Kallen can accept it.

Li Pu felt that if they continued to maintain this air of mystery, things might become difficult to handle. Otto was also one of the top strategists in the Honkai incident.

It might not be that bad in the game.

Moreover, Otto's current behavior is being deduced from the perspective of a game character.

In the game, Otto exposed Yae Sakura's hypocrisy for Kallen's sake and for the people's sake, pointing directly to the mastermind behind it all.

Now, it's highly likely that Otto Wine is colluding with Yae Sakura, and together they're singing and dancing in the dark realm!

After all, this guy is so devoted to Kallen that he can disregard both good and evil.

It's really possible that they could collaborate with Yae Sakura!

Li Pu's estimate was correct.

Otto really went to find Yae Sakura!

He understood that it was impossible to possess both Kallen at this moment. Although the observation was brief, it was now basically certain that there were two minor obstacles on his path to possessing both Kallen —the present Kallen and the future Kallen.

One is the current Li Pu, and the other is the current Yae Sakura.

Li Pu is the reincarnation of Kallen, but his problem is that he is male, while Kallen's soul is still asleep.

But none of these are important issues; he can resolve the gender issue, and Kallen's soul is awakening.

It could even be said that once Kallen's soul awakens, gender is not an issue at all.

Consciousness is not the problem either.

With his soul awakening, regardless of whether Li Pu is willing to be reborn, he is no match for his past life. He will undergo an irreversible transformation and become the real Kallen.

Another issue is Yae Sakura.

Yae Sakura is the enemy!

She wants to possess Kallen!

However, Otto also knew that Yae Sakura was a potential ally, provided she also agreed that two Kallen were enough to share. He envisioned a suggestion where one would satisfy both of them.

Even if a temporary agreement is reached, disputes can be set aside and joint development can proceed.

As for how to divide the two Kallen after Li Pu.

That's another issue.

No rush!

So that's why~

"You're saying he's Kallen from the future? Kallen's reincarnation?" Yae Sakura sat up straight and said, "Hehehe, what a ridiculous joke."

Why should I believe you?

"Because you are Miko." Otto also sat up straight, but said with even more confidence, "And the Demon in the Box."

"They must know this very well too."

Yae Sakura didn't answer, but she did seem to be thinking.

She had already considered this possibility, but hadn't actually confirmed it. It existed only as a hypothesis, and she never expected that an outsider would bring it up today.

"Why are you so sure?" Yae Sakura asked in return.

"Don't you think he has the upper hand in every situation?" Otto asked, stating his opinion while also asking, "He's just an ordinary person who doesn't seem particularly remarkable and doesn't seem to have much information."

"But he can deduce a lot of things."

Yes, Yae Sakura also found it quite strange. Without any investigation, just a few words were enough for him to make some guesses.

The key point is that this guess was correct!

Previously, Yae Sakura thought this guy was just clever, but he was only being cunning.

A smart person who lacks self-control and is eager to show off.

It seems that's not the case now.

"Because he knows history," Otto said. "So he can always influence the course of history at crucial moments through the history he knows."

"For example, he knew I would come, and he also knew you would do this."

"So he revealed some information to Kallen."

"So what do you want from me?" Yae Sakura believed Otto's words.

"He could change history," Otto said confidently. "So can we, although we don't have something we already know as a reference point to plan for, like he did."

"But you and I are people who are part of this history, and this history is written by us."

"We are the writers, and we can write a different kind of history!"

"Is that so?" Yae Sakura sneered. "Why do you think I should cooperate with you? You don't know how history will unfold. Perhaps history will eventually return to its original course."

"Besides, it's not necessarily true that if I cooperate with you, you'll share with me."

What if I want both?

"Is this what you wanted?" Otto sneered. "Yae Sakura? Or the Demon in the Box?"

"I don't know how that part of history will unfold in the future."

"I could roughly guess some things from the way he looked at me."

"That history is not perfect, at least not as you or I want it to be."

"As for wanting both."

Otto said, slowly and deliberately, "If history continues to unfold in that direction."

"Then let's not talk about me, you!"

"Yae Sakura! I don't want any of them!"

"Want it! Get it!"

Chapter 221 Choosing a Sacrifice

Li Pu was in a bit of a predicament; he suddenly realized a problem.

That means we should talk to Kallen about it.

It doesn't seem like a very good option.

It's not that Kallen is stupid, but rather that Kallen's a bit too straightforward. There are some things that are a bit hard for straightforward people to understand.

Because they are stubborn and inflexible.

Kallen is the kind of person who sticks to her principles.

So this matter isn't so easy to explain.

For example, if she now believes Yae Sakura is a good person, then Yae Sakura is a good person. No arguments allowed!

If Kallen doesn't see the facts.

Kallen wouldn't believe it.

So.

"Huh? What are you saying?" Kallen asked, puzzled. "You're from the future? You're my reincarnation?"

"Well, from your worldview or the worldview of this world," Li Pu said, "That's roughly it. Although I also find this whole thing quite ridiculous."

"But that's just how it is."

Reincarnation.

This is the explanation first proposed by Otto, and it is also the currently accepted explanation.

If it weren't for this explanation, Bronya and Kiana wouldn't be so stubborn and insist that he's their mother.

But reincarnation and such.

"Do you think I want to be a fool?" Kallen asked.

"No," Li Pu said, shaking his head. "Actually Kallen, you're quite smart."

"Yes." Kallen seemed pleased and even a little proud, as if she had been praised. "The reason why our Kaslana family has been able to prosper for so long is because we are smart."

"More importantly, the Kaslana family has its own will and ideas."

"We think independently."

Kallen seemed very proud.

"Huh?" Li Pu said, looking at Kallen's proud expression. "What about Kiana? K423? And Siegfried? Well, Siegfried isn't exactly a smart person either."

Anyway, Li Pu felt that the few members of the Kaslana family he knew were all idiots.

Siegfried may seem smart, but he's actually quite stupid!

"What did you say?" Kallen, listening to Li Pu's string of names. "Although I don't know who these people are, that idiot is definitely not from the Kaslana family."
