Long live Ms. Shizhi's live stream.

"Huh? What's the connection between Yae Sakura and Sakura?" Little Knowledge asked, puzzled. She had heard about the relationship between Sakura and Kallen, which was why she was guessing that.

"How could they possibly be related? One is from Previous Era, and the other is from 500 years ago in the present civilization. Besides, Sakura died in the war, so she couldn't possibly have lived to see the present civilization."

"I think so too. Is it too hasty to judge based on just one word? I'm more inclined to believe in a scenario like Mei and Dr. MEI, who look very similar but are not the same person."

"That makes sense."

Little Knowledge nodded in approval.

She always thought that if Kevin's character was based on a real person, he would be a gender-swapped version of Kiana from Previous Era.

"Little Knowledge, do you know anything inside information?"

"Yeah, Little Knowledge, don't you always say how good your relationship with Yaqing is?"

"Of course I know," Little Knowledge said, turning her head away. "Yaqing told me that these inside stories must never be revealed."

Chapter 201 Otto: Kallen... my Kallen... Kallen is mine!!!

"Is falling in love with Herrscher really wrong?!"

Kiana's mind flashed back to Mei, and she resolved to rescue Kallen. Even knowing Mei was already dead, she couldn't just stand by and watch her die before her eyes while she did nothing.

"Wrong! Terribly wrong!"

Otto was practically shouting it out.

He looked at Kiana in the story with a strange expression.

I admire your desire to save Kallen.

But if you agree that Kallen has fallen for someone else, then don't blame me for being impolite.

In the dark cell, a figure appeared from behind. He ordered his men to prepare, and their reply revealed his identity.

Young Master Otto.

"I will not let you die, my dearest Kallen."

"Very good, very good. Go save Kallen, go save the woman you love."

Even knowing how the story would unfold, Otto couldn't help but cheer on his younger self in the story. Even if it was just one chance, even if it was virtual, he wanted to change the plot of Kallen's death.

The next day, when it was time for the execution, Bronya used a bomb to attract attention as planned, and Kiana took the opportunity to save Kallen. But just as they were about to leave, Honkai Beasts suddenly appeared in the center of the city and attacked the crowd.

Just as everyone was wondering why the Honkai was happening, Otto emerged from the shadows.

He seemed quite satisfied with his plan, acting like a sycophant, treating ordinary people as inferiors and using their sacrifices to ensure Kallen's survival.

He invited Kallen to leave with him.

But Kallen slapped him hard across the face.

"Stop insulting me, Otto!"

"I am the guardian of the Kaslana people, their shield. I will not run away without regard for their safety."

Kallen decides to lure the Honkai Beasts away herself, Kiana agrees to accompany her.

Bronya, perched playfully on the railing, noticed some hidden information. Upon opening it, she was suddenly transported to an execution ground, where the weakened Kallen had been killed by Honkai Beasts while protecting the people.

"Wait, wait, let me sort this out." Little Knowledge quickly paused the video. "So, the Honkai Beasts were actually released by Otto, and then the Honkai Beasts killed Kallen. So, the culprit is actually Otto?"

"That's not entirely true. Otto's main idea was still to rescue Kallen, but his ideology was somewhat extreme."

"This isn't just extreme; it's pure antisocial personality disorder!"

"Was Otto this frivolous when he was young? It just doesn't feel right."

"If we look at it this way, Otto's obsession with reviving Kallen isn't because he can't accept Kallen's death, but because he can't accept that his own mistakes led to Kallen's death?"

"Isn't that all because of Otto?!"

Little Knowledge knew Otto, and given the plot's setup, Otto shot the old antique, leaving him in a state of uncertainty. As a result, Little Knowledge's affection for Otto plummeted.

The Queen of Void's live stream.

"The plot development is so strange. If Otto killed Kallen, or even if Kallen actually liked someone else, then why is he so obsessed with reviving Kallen?"

Sirin's doubts remained unanswered; before the events of five hundred years ago officially began, all answers were merely speculations.

In order to supply weapons to Kiana, Bronya, who was climbing on the flagpole, was discovered by Honkai Beasts and was thrown off in a moment, but was caught by a familiar person.

It was Otto, wearing a purple bishop's robe.

He smiled slightly.

Perhaps, as he said, he was moved by Bronya and Kiana's efforts to save Kallen.

Otto waved his hand casually.

The White Knight: Moonlight, clad in her Kiana, easily blocked the Honkai Beasts's attack, which had initially been unable to withstand its power. With a single move, her wings of light unfurled, and the Honkai Beasts was swiftly obliterated, leaving not a trace.

"That's so cool! I didn't know I had such a powerful suit of armor!" Kiana exclaimed excitedly, mimicking a pose from the story and shouting in a childish, over-the-top manner, "Light Wings, deploy!"

Mei looked tenderly at Kiana, who was being silly.

"I refuse to accept this! Why does Kiana get a new skin?!"

Sirin caused a huge scene.

"Sister Sirin is really like a little child," Rosalia sighed, trying to sound mature.

"So the Moonlight set was reserved for Kiana, which means the next few Valkyrie sets are all pre-ordered?!"

"Prison Knight Moonghost, what an imposing name."

"I still think the name Night Knight: Moonshake is cooler."

Kiana looked at Kallen, who was leaning against the wall, her life force gradually fading. Even though she knew the person in front of her was just a virtual image, she still knelt down in front of Kallen and gently comforted her.

Kallen took Kiana's hand.

It turns out that she already knew she was a virtual person who had experienced countless reincarnations and deaths. The people around her seemed to be playing along with her performance. She had tried to escape, but nothing changed until Kiana appeared.

Kallen asks how many years she has been dead.

Kiana answered truthfully.

"More than five hundred years..." Kallen knew she couldn't leave this virtual world, so she asked Kiana to tell Yae Sakura if she ever had the chance to meet her.

"..."

Kallen whispered in Kiana's ear.

The virtual space began to collapse. Kiana, who had just awakened, was holding the HOMU Connector, her eyes filled with indescribable emotions.

"My ancestors... were truly fools."

"Kallen is mine! Mine!!!"

Amber shrank behind her desk in fear, hesitating whether to call the hospital and get the CEO a call from the neurology department... no, the psychiatry department.

As if struck by a thought, Otto picked up the phone and made a call to someone.

President Yaqing, who was enjoying life at a five-star hotel, picked up the phone with practiced ease when it rang. By the time he saw the caller ID, he had already devised a plan.

"My dear president, is there something important that you're calling me so late?" Yaqing asked humbly.

"Yaqing, my most proud student, I used to be proud of you." Otto's tone was calm. "But today you have deceived me, no, you have been deceiving me for a long time."

"President, I don't understand what you mean." Yaqing pretended not to understand.

"Kallen and Sakura." Otto cut straight to the chase, not wanting to argue with Yaqing anymore.

"President, don't you think this way you can better appreciate your love for Sister Kallen?"

"No, I don't think so."

Just as the little fox and the old fox were setting traps for each other, Mobius, having finished his bath, sat on Yaqing's bed in his bathrobe, drying his wet hair, and asked, "Who is it?"

"My dearest teacher," Yaqing said with a smile, "Teacher, you wouldn't want to delay your student's good time, would you?"

"How could that be?" The reasonable Otto suppressed his emotions and hung up the phone.

After Otto hung up the phone, Yaqing rushed toward Mobius impatiently.

Mobius stopped Yaqing's face and said irritably, "Go take a shower first."

"Senior sister~~"

"Playing the victim won't work."

With a surge of malice, Yaqing untied the straps securing the Mobius towel and began to knead the soft, large Lei.

"Eek..."

Chapter 202 Little Knowledge: No, Ying Du has two roles? What about me?

"Sakura and Grandma?!"

Theresa looked strange; she still found it hard to believe and wanted to call and give the person a good scolding. She picked up her phone and dialed the number.

Meanwhile, in the hotel room, the sheets were tossed and turned, accompanied by a woman's soft breathing. An untimely ringtone sounded from her cell phone, and a fair-skinned arm pressed against the man's shoulder.

Mobius's slightly flushed face clearly showed that he was having a hard time withstanding the other party's "attack".

"The phone is ringing. Answer it first, just in case it's something that needs to be done at the company."

Annoyed by being interrupted, Yaqing picked up her phone and saw that the caller ID was Theresa. She became even more furious, silently turned off her phone, and pounced on the Snakey that had turned into a "little white sheep" again.

"Wait! Don't hit so hard... I'm sorry..."

Mobius panicked, then quickly begged for mercy.

This is completely different from her usual aloof demeanor.

Theresa, who was waiting for the call to connect, only heard a message that the other party's phone was switched off. She was puzzled, so she drew back the curtains and looked at the rising sun outside.

"It's already afternoon, is that guy still not awake? That's outrageous, I, the headmaster, have already started working!"

The next episode of the short drama did not continue Kiana's story, but instead shifted the focus to Theresa's office, where they listened to Himeko's report that she had discovered a stronger fluctuation than the Honkai Beasts, and suspected that it was the fluctuation of Herrscher.

Theresa looked on in disbelief.

The title of this episode of the short drama is: The Birth of the Fourth Herrscher?

"Wait a minute, this isn't right, is it? Wendy is the Fourth Herrscher, and she shouldn't be born for another year or so in the timeline."

"There's no conflict." Sirin waved her hand. "What if the people in the science department made a mistake?"

Rosalia leaned on Sirin's shoulder.

Lilia lay down behind Sirin.

Just then, Bella, who was carrying afternoon tea, came in and saw this scene. Her gentle smile froze for a moment, and then her smile became a little strange, as if she was forcing herself to smile.

"Your Majesty, it's time for afternoon tea."

Bella, like an elegant maid, placed the cakes, milk tea, potato chips, cola, and other items on the tray in front of the computer desk, ignoring the barrage of comments from Bella's sister on the live stream. She looked at Sirin tenderly.

"Okay, Bella, you can put it there for now." Sirin didn't have time to pay attention to Bella, as she was frantically rubbing Rosalia's head, which felt wonderful. "Wow! Rosalia, what shampoo do you use? It smells so good and makes your hair so soft."

"Hmph, that's Mom's special shampoo!" Rosalia said proudly.

Feeling ignored, Bella took out the tray and silently left Sirin's bedroom. As soon as she closed the door, she couldn't keep up the act anymore, her eyes seemingly blazing with anger.

"Kill them! Kill them all! How dare they steal my Queen!"
