The Ultimate Granddaughter-Con, Otto! / The "Gratitude" Arc Concludes

The viewers in the live stream couldn't resist when they heard Elysia's coquettish voice.

"Damn it, you old scoundrel, are you even a man? How can you resist a fairy's coquettishness?!"

"From this moment on, I acknowledge you as a real man!"

"I still maintain my opinion; I suspect he prefers men."

"Then I'll call Eden."

Upon hearing that Yaqing was going to call Eden to complain, Elysia panicked and snatched the phone, trying to hang up, only to find that she hadn't actually dialed the number.

Realizing she had been tricked, the fairy puffed up her cheeks like a hamster.

"Yaqing, you're bad!"

In the courtyard of the shrine, Yae Sakura scooped up a ladle of water and splashed it on her pretty face. Her white shrine maiden clothes were soaked, outlining her graceful figure. The Black Fox appeared once again, bewitching her heart as always.

"Let me bestow upon you fangs!"

"Let me grant you a sharp blade!"

"Let me grant you darkness!"

The deity suddenly appeared behind her, urging her to make a decision quickly.

"That Black Fox is awful! Fairy doesn't like it." Elysia vented all her anger on the appearance of the Firyugumaru in the story, and didn't even pay attention to the wet and alluring Sakura.

"Yae Sakura is actually very conflicted right now. She wants to protect the village, but she also wants to protect Theresa," Yaqing sighed. "But is there really a way to have the best of both worlds?"

"Weren't you the screenwriter of this short drama? How are we supposed to know if you're asking us?"

"Stop being a riddle solver!"

Yae Rin appears in Theresa's dream, allowing Theresa to see her own life, which is also Yae Sakura's painful memories. In the end, she still begs Theresa to save Yae Sakura.

Theresa readily agreed.

However, she didn't seem to realize that she had lost her S-Rank Valkyrie abilities in the Stigmata's space, which made Rin very anxious. She kept reminding her that only by finding the white-haired female knight could she deal with the darkness.

Theresa woke up to find her arms held captive by villagers wearing fox masks, and she was too weak, like a child, to break free.

The villagers pulled out their knives, intending to sever Theresa's tendons in her hands and feet first.

"Don't worry, Sakura, I will definitely save you!"

"This is the promise I, Theresa Apocalypse, made to your sister."

Chapter 210 The Ultimate Granddaughter Complex, Otto!

"Yae Sakura's fate is exactly the same as Sakura's, and even her younger sister's fate is exactly the same."

"Damn it, sacrificing his own youngest daughter to some so-called god, and then making his eldest daughter kill her with her own hands—does this kind of person even deserve to be a father?"

After watching Yae Sakura's sad memories, the viewers of the short drama were filled with righteous indignation. They sympathized with Rin's plight and could not imagine the pain she suffered in the end.

["Did you guys notice? Rin kept talking about corruption, and coincidentally, Sakura's younger sister from the Previous Era seems to have become the Herrscher of Corruption ..."]

"That doesn't mean anything. Sakura and Rin, Yae Sakura and Rin's careers are all developing at roughly the same level. Can you say they're the same person?"

"That's outrageous!"

Elysia doesn't use vulgar swear words; she only ever uses two words.

"I don't deny that there are some unruly people in remote mountain villages in real life, but I've never seen anyone this unruly before. I guess you can only see this kind of person in anime."

"You're overthinking it. You can't even imagine the ugliness of human nature."

"That's not right~" Elysia denied this view and said seriously with her pretty face, "Human nature may be ugly, but it also has many beautiful aspects. I believe in people, just as I believe in myself."

Yaqing felt a moment of dizziness.

From the perspective of the live streamer, it seemed as if Yaqing was stunned by Elysia's appearance, at least in the eyes of a certain Snakey.

"Bang!"

Danzhu, who was slacking off and taking a nap, was startled awake by the loud noise coming from the laboratory.

"An earthquake?"

Danzhu turned her head and saw Cang Xuan and Klein staring at the laboratory door with horrified expressions.

"What's wrong?"

"I don't know what happened today, but I had a particularly terrifying feeling about today's experiment," Cang Xuan said with lingering fear.

"Huh? We made so many models?" Shigure Kira looked at Theresa appeared in the short drama.

"No, I remember Theresa with the feather fan and turban was just a flashback scene. Who made the physical model of her?" Patrick was dumbfounded. As the head of the modeling department, she didn't even know who made the model.

"Who could it be?"

Shigure Kira and Patrick were completely baffled.

Under a crimson moon, Theresa, her hands tightly bound, kneels beneath a torii gate. A man wearing a fox mask wants Sakura to kill Theresa with his own hands.

If Theresa dies in the Stigmata Space, she will also die in real life.

Sakura couldn't bring herself to do it and dropped the katana.

The man seemed to have a premonition and transformed into Rin's appearance.

Under her influence, Sakura picked up the katana from the ground and stabbed Theresa through the skin. Theresa slowly closed her eyes, while Sakura gradually regained consciousness, staring in disbelief at the scene before her.

The man wearing a fox mask hugged Sakura from behind, like Yandere.

"I love you, Sakura!"

"Next, you will be inside me... forever sitting there, never to wake up, in this painful dream."

"How could this be?!" Elysia's beautiful eyes widened.

"Impossible. As the old thief just said, the web series and short dramas share the same universe as the movie. If Theresa dies, then Theresa can't possibly appear in the movie."

Central Europe.

"Theresa, my poor little Theresa..."

Otto roared again.

"That wretched pink fox!!!"

In the real world, Bronya detected that Theresa's heartbeat had stopped, but soon after, she detected a sharp increase in Honkai energy within Theresa's body.

Behind Bronya, Theresa, who had been lying down, sat up. Traces of Honkai erosion spread outward from the three pink magatama Stigmata on her back. Her azure pupils were replaced by pink, and even her white hair was mixed with some pink and white gradient colors.

"This body is mine now!"

"You bastard, get out of my little Theresa's body right now!"

Kallen is not here.

In a room where he was all alone, Otto revealed his true nature.

That is... a granddaughter complex.

Never underestimate Otto's love for Theresa. It's likely that in Otto's heart, there are only Kallen and Theresa, and everyone else.

Yaqing was also curious about this.

He was very curious: if Otto were given a pistol with a single bullet, and he had to kill either Kallen or Theresa in order for the other to live, who would Otto point the gun at?

Of course, Yaqing wouldn't be so brainless as to ask him directly; otherwise, Otto would probably be laughing and pointing a gun at him.

Based on Yaqing's understanding of Otto, he would most likely target Theresa, since Otto would certainly not do anything to harm Kallen. Of course, after Theresa's death, Otto would definitely do everything he could to find a way to revive her.

[The short drama automatically jumps to the second episode. In the boundless darkness at the beginning, Yae Sakura is caught in painful memories. At that time, she wanted to leave with Rin, but was captured by the God and ultimately killed Rin with her own hands.]

Painful memories transform into endless dreams, and in countless cycles, one experiences loss once more.

A mentally broken Yae Sakura fled the room and encountered a white-haired, blue-eyed cat, which she brought back to Rin's room.

Just as the villagers were about to take Rin away as a sacrifice to the gods, the cat suddenly jumped high into the air, transforming into Theresa, and kicked away the villager who was holding Rin.

"The light of hope will shine into the darkness!"

Theresa regained her S-Rank Valkyrie powers.

"Theresa is amazing! We must rescue Sakura!" Elysia couldn't hide her excitement.

"Principal Theresa has stood up!"

"Hilarious, did you even sit down?"

"Stop talking, I'm afraid Theresa's going to get into trouble again any second now. She might not be able to save Sakura, and she might even get herself killed."

"Have we forgotten something? This short drama is supposed to have two storylines, what about Mei's storyline?"

"Stop talking! The more you all talk, the more I feel Theresa is going to get upset again, especially with Mei backup."

Yaqing smiled slightly, "Don't worry, it won't happen."

Upon hearing Yaqing's voice, the viewers in the live stream split into two groups. One group believed that Yaqing meant Theresa would no longer suffer setbacks, while the other group believed that Yaqing was releasing a smokescreen and Theresa would still suffer setbacks.

Elysia looked at Yaqing.

"Yaqing, will Ying have a happy ending?"

"I can't give you a definite answer because I don't know whether this ending is good or bad for you," Yaqing said bluntly.

"Ah?"

Elysia was confused. She could understand each word individually, but she couldn't understand them when they were put together.

Chapter 211, "The Gratitude Arc," concludes.

The camera shifts back to reality, where Kiana and Bronya stare in astonishment at Theresa, who is sprawled on the bed like a cat with its fur standing on end. She slowly raises her head, exuding an overwhelming sense of oppression.

"Let your deaths celebrate my complete resurrection!"

Theresa, now possessed, let out a low laugh, her eyes filled with murderous intent and disdain, and lunged at Kiana.

Bronya quickly reminded Kiana that Theresa's Honkai energy level had reached the Herrscher level.

Just when all the viewers thought Kiana was about to fall into the clutches of evil, or at the very least be injured, she simply took a step back, and Theresa, who had lunged at her, crashed directly into the wall and passed out.

"So cute~~" Elysia's eyes lit up as she looked at Theresa, who blushed because her fox ears had been touched, and a pang of envy welled up in her heart. She also wanted to touch those soft ears.

"What a pity, Sakura doesn't have fox ears, sigh!" Elysia suddenly seemed to have thought of something, her gaze burning as she looked at Yaqing, her voice sweet and charming. "Yaqing, my dear Yaqing ~~"

"What are you doing?" Yaqing asked warily.

Have you considered releasing merchandise featuring cherry blossom fox ears?

"Not at the moment."

"Okay." Elysia was a little disappointed.

"Hilarious. Because she took over Theresa's body, she also inherited the power to be defeated?"

"This is really outrageous. I thought it was a boss."

[Consciousness returned to the Stigmata Space. The giant white fox spat a fireball at Theresa and Sakura. At this critical moment, Mei appeared, blocking the fireball with her blade, gripping the hilt with both hands, her eyes resolute.]
