Otto threw a punch with his left fist, striking Raven directly below her left chest. The bewildered girl rolled her eyes, her heart stopping from the sudden blow, and she immediately passed out.
No one could have imagined someone would suddenly descend from the sky to punch them.
With the punch landed, Raven's soft, yielding body collapsed onto Otto. A sweet scent entered his nostrils, and Otto reached out, directly grabbing the item Raven carried on her back.
It was a dark purple sniper rifle.
This sniper rifle was Raiden Mei's senior, the Third Divine Key: Judgement of Shamash.
[Third Divine Key: Judgement of Shamash has been delivered. Please check, Host.]
He regained control of his body.
But Otto was also stunned, bewildered by the system's actions.
Defeat the original owner, and the item becomes yours. That was the logic, alright.
But system, you're actually giving me someone else's stuff as a reward? Have some shame!
Looking at the Judgement of Shamash in his hand and the unconscious girl, only one thought came to Otto's mind—thank goodness he didn't draw Feather of Dust, which Fu Hua possessed.
Otherwise, Schicksal would be holding a funeral tomorrow.
Chapter 2: Heroes of the World, Only You and Kevin
What is Honkai?
Honkai is a trial given to the world by a transcendent existence called the Imaginary Tree.
Worlds that pass the Honkai trial are sublimated, while those that fail fall from the Imaginary Tree into the Sea of Quantum, forming shattered world bubbles.
Honkai's primary manifestation in the world is a cyclical natural disaster.
Its eruption time is unpredictable, and its form is elusive, but it is certain that Honkai eruptions release a highly efficient and dangerous energy—Honkai Energy.
Initially, it generally appears as disasters like earthquakes, typhoons, and plagues. However, once civilization develops to a certain extent, beings called "Herrschers" have a chance to be born in the disaster zones.
Herrschers are the apostles of Honkai, and their mission is to eliminate humanity.
But humanity does not sit idly by. They establish organizations to jointly fight Honkai, and there are two major organizations fighting Honkai openly.
Schicksal and Anti-Entropy.
And Otto Apocalypse is the current leader of Schicksal.
However, this Schicksal Bishop, who is above countless others, was now standing at the door of a washroom, throwing his leather suit, leather pants, belt, cloak, accessories, and the girl's intimate apparel inside before closing the door.
Suspicious lights flickered in the room, and on the only large bed, the girl named Raven still lay asleep.
Where there is light, there must be darkness.
In the Honkai world, besides Schicksal and Anti-Entropy, an ancient organization called World Serpent lurks in the shadows. Its leader, Kevin Kaslana, is undoubtedly the strongest person in this world, second only to the Herrscher of the End.
And Raven on the bed is a cadre of the World Serpent. Positionally, she is somewhat opposed to Schicksal. However, these rats are well hidden and have not been discovered by Schicksal yet.
But Otto now has the script!
Being bestowed the Key of Thunder is enough to show Raven's extraordinary status within World Serpent, so Otto gave her the most basic respect.
Currently, Raven is not wearing a single piece of cloth.
This is not because Otto was lusting after her; it's because he was startled when he casually touched her and found a dagger.
Who knows how many weapons Raven had hidden on her? Otto was afraid of missing any, so he stripped her completely.
There was no other way; it was all for his own safety.
After Otto had descended from the sky and punched Raven, he carried her to this suspiciously-looking "breeding hotel" and booked a room. This was because after being controlled by the system to jump off the floating island and knock Raven down with a punch, he didn't know how to return to Schicksal headquarters.
He had no memory of Otto's original self, so Otto decided to wait for Schicksal to send someone to pick him up.
Schicksal would surely send someone to find him, right? They would definitely find him, right? They had to find him!!!
The reason for booking a room with Raven was simple: if he took the Divine Key and fled, it would be like telling World Serpent that he had no backup, prompting them to quickly capture him while he was alone.
A Schicksal Bishop cannot flee from the battlefield!
The price of fleeing could be being captured by World Serpent, subjected to inhumane torture and experimentation, and finally brainwashed into a "treadmill" for continuously producing the bloodline of the Apocalypse family.
Therefore, he couldn't back down. Even if he was truly scared, as long as he pretended to have a plan, World Serpent wouldn't dare to act rashly.
He just needed to buy time.
So Fu Hua, Rita, Amber, Durandal, hurry up and take me home.
Otto: >﹏<
With a silent sigh, Otto looked at Raven, still asleep on the bed. Her perky breasts, shapely hips, and long legs made her a genuine sex symbol. As expected of the woman who would later form the Crow-Mei CP with Mei.

Who could refuse two pairs of long legs side-by-side?
After looking for a few moments, Otto averted his gaze because his current body was not a proper one.
The fact that he could fall from the sky without injury showed that this was not a normal human body. Otto's current body was composed of a special substance called "Soul Steel." Although it looked no different from a normal person, it was incapable of normal physiological and reproductive functions.
In other words.
The Sage state is already Otto's permanent skill.
Looking at beautiful legs for too long is just torture.
He was forced to have not a shred of desire for the mundane world.
I'm tired, let it all be destroyed. One day, this Bishop must get a usable body.
Otto then turned off the lights in the room that could provoke the limits of a man's reason, walked to the window, and pulled the curtains open slightly, letting in some light from outside to prevent the room from being pitch dark.
After doing all this, Otto casually picked up a bottle of red wine and a wine glass from the cabinet and sat on a chair against the wall, leisurely pouring himself a glass.
Specks of sunlight fell on Otto. He crossed his legs, swirled the wine glass, and gazed at the liquid with his emerald eyes.
A faint sound came from the bed.
But Otto didn't notice. He took a sip of red wine and then frowned.
"Tsk," Otto clicked his tongue softly.
He realized I was awake!
In the dim room, Raven, who had been unconscious, suddenly opened her rose-red eyes.
When Raven first woke up, she found herself lying in a place that looked like a love hotel. Her extremely keen hearing could even pick up sounds from the next room.
What's more, she wasn't wearing any clothes, which scared Raven into quickly checking her body. Fortunately, there was no penetration front or back.
But before Raven could breathe a sigh of relief, she noticed there was someone else in the room.
After she stole a glance at the handsome man who was pouring wine, her heart almost leaped out of her chest.
She recognized him immediately. The man alone in the room with her was none other than the Schicksal Bishop, Otto!
Raven was an executive of World Serpent. World Serpent was no stranger to Schicksal, and Bishop Otto Apocalypse was precisely their focus.
Otto was an extremely ruthless man. Beneath his handsome and extraordinary face lay the visage of a demon.
Now, she had been captured by Otto!
She was going to be interrogated, tortured, insulted, trampled, and brainwashed!
No, no, no. Raven, who came from a mercenary background, calmed herself down. Schicksal didn't know about World Serpent's existence, and Otto certainly didn't know her identity as a World Serpent executive. Therefore, he had no reason to capture her.
Perhaps there was some misunderstanding.
Hey, I'm a law-abiding citizen.
Although she didn't know why Otto was doing this, now that Otto had discovered she was awake, she couldn't pretend to be asleep any longer.
Raven sat up in bed, her rose-red eyes showing a hint of confusion. She hugged a pillow to cover her exposed beauty.
Meanwhile, Otto slowly put down his wine glass. This wine was too awful. Drinking something like this horse urine was an insult to his status as a Schicksal Bishop.
At this moment, he finally heard the movement from the bed.
Otto turned his head to look at the sitting Raven, his hands tightening slightly, his heart beating rapidly.
However, a faint smile remained on his face, with no trace of emotional fluctuation.
This was a carefully considered expression. He believed that smiling made it easier to hide his true emotions and made him seem unfathomable. Therefore, no matter what happened, he just needed to smile.
A smile hiding a knife was always more terrifying than a ferocious scowl.
"Beautiful lady, you are awake."
Otto said with a smile, his gaze falling on Raven. Raven instinctively flinched back, but she reminded herself not to panic.
Her belief was "live well." How could she fall here? She hadn't saved enough money to buy a villa and an island yet!
"H-hello." Remembering her goal, Raven calmed down again. She feigned a little fear and confusion, "Who are you?"
Seeing that Raven didn't attack him directly, Otto felt a sense of relief. He stood up, placed his right hand on his chest, and bowed slightly to Raven in a gentlemanly manner.
"It's a pleasure to meet you. My name is Otto Apocalypse."
"I'm Raven. I feel like your name, Mr. Otto, sounds a bit familiar." Raven hugged the pillow tighter. She didn't hide her name, as Raven was just an alias used externally anyway.
She would not underestimate the capabilities of Otto and Schicksal. Since Otto appeared before her, Schicksal must have discovered her overt identity as a mercenary.
Seeing Raven pretend not to know him, Otto found it a bit amusing. He wasn't stupid; would a World Serpent executive not know who the Schicksal Bishop was?
His heart was pounding violently.
As expected, the other party was stunned by him.
However, if they were just playing polite games with each other, there would eventually be a slip-up.
Therefore, he needed to control the flow of the conversation.
"Miss Raven, do you think..."
Otto sat back down on the chair, his gaze falling on Raven's fair white thighs. Her delicate toes were slightly curled, making one want to hold them and play with them.
Although the pillow she was holding now covered a large expanse of white, some things were more alluring when partially hidden than when completely revealed.
Otto withdrew his gaze and continued with a smile.
"Who in this world can be called a hero?"
Raven blinked, not understanding why Otto would ask such a question.
In a love hotel, after stripping himself bare, the Bishop of Schicksal wanted to talk to me about who was a hero?
As he spoke, Otto reached out, grasped a dark purple katana beside him, and then placed it on his knee, stroking it gently.
Seeing the katana, Raven's eye twitched.
That was her Third Divine Key: Judgement of Shamash.
Judgement of Shamash could transform into different forms depending on who wielded it. In her hands, it was a sniper rifle, but in Otto's hands, it had transformed into a katana.
Raven suddenly understood. She was captured likely because of Judgement of Shamash. With the Divine Key in her possession, Schicksal would surely investigate the reason.
If that was the case, she was actually safe. As long as she didn't resist and cooperated obediently with Schicksal, she would be fine.
However, seeing her gun transformed into another man's weapon gave Raven a strange feeling, as if her head had become a little heavier.
Wuwuwu, my Judgement of Shamash.
Otto, meanwhile, stroked the katana that felt so good in his hand. Judgement of Shamash was made from the Herrscher of Thunder of the previous era, and Mei was also a Herrscher of Thunder. So, in a manner of speaking, he was caressing Mei.
He didn't wait for Raven to answer, instead answering himself.
"To me."
"The only heroes in the world are Kevin Kaslana and myself."

He knew!
Otto knew everything!
