Otto Loves Cross-Dressing. (Continued)

Vill-V's guess surprised everyone.

"Ah?"

Although they might associate it with the Judgement of Shamash, they don't actually believe it is the Judgement of Shamash.

"I see."

Sakura was the first to realize why Vill-V would say that, and then it dawned on her.

"What?"

When Elysia saw that Sakura understood, she became even more confused.

Vill-V then gestured for Sakura to explain.

"Vill-V means is, since Fu Hua, the Fusion Warrior who survived from the previous civilization, was revered as an immortal in Shenzhou and left behind myths and legends, is it possible that Kevin left behind any records?"

Sakura explained it very clearly.

"You mean Kevin is King Arthur?"

Elysia was surprised.

"No."

Vill-V shook her head.

"King Arthur's growth is very detailed, so it's unlikely that he's Kevin who survived the Finality battle. My idea is that it's the great magician Merlin, and the holy sword he gave to King Arthur is very likely the Judgement of Shamash."

Vill-V's statement was surprising.

Yet it seems reasonable.

Mei's expression changed, and she stepped away from Kevin's embrace, saying with a forced smile, "Vivian."

Who is Vivian?

Kevin was still puzzled as to why May had suddenly changed her expression.

"Vivian, according to legend, was the Lady of the Lake who was infatuated with Merlin, and even the great wizard's end was that he was imprisoned by the Lady of the Lake."

Vill-V gave Kevin a deep look.

"If I remember correctly, Kevin's ending also seems to be that he was imprisoned in the Sea of Quanta by some pioneer, which is very similar to the description in the records."

Kevin then realized the source of his jealousy.

"Impossible! This great mage can't be me! May, believe me, this is all just Vill-V's speculation, it hasn't been confirmed at all."

Kevin wanted to prove himself quickly, so he looked at Yaqing.

"Yaqing, say something!"

Yaqing glanced at it, then continued to enjoy the food Mobius was feeding her without saying a word.

Upon seeing the anxious Kevin, May, who had just been keeping a straight face, burst out laughing.

"Okay, Kevin, I was just kidding."

Mei stroked Kevin's Kitty's fur.

Kevin knew May was teasing him, and he pursed his lips.

Okay.

The pungent smell of being in love.

Everyone was internally complaining.

Since Kevin and May started working, they hadn't shown such sweetness in front of others for a long time. They were used to Yaqing and Mobius being affectionate, so Kevin and May's sudden display of affection made them a little uncomfortable.

Catherine looked helplessly at Susannah, who was sitting on the grass humming a song and fiddling with precision machinery.

The Jackal lurking behind the scenes is in contact with someone and has learned that Rita and Susannah have arrived at the designated location. They are preparing to execute their plan and give the Valkyrie of Schicksal a proper "welcome."

Although Jackal has a strong villainous aura, the series of things Jackal did in the past made the audience feel that Jackal's plan was bound to fail.

After all, the Second Divine Key was in Schicksal's hands at the beginning of the main storyline.

"It's obvious that this information was leaked by Catherine."

Elysia was certain.

Because this location was chosen by Catherine, and it was also the execution location chosen by the Jackal. What a coincidence!

"Damn Jackal!"

Pardo was angry; she had no liking for the Jackal, especially considering what Jackal had done to Kiana.

Susannah quickly found a secret passage beneath the rocks leading to a vast underground space. Rita cleared away the dirt, moved the stone slabs, and the dark tunnel appeared before her eyes.

The three walked cautiously down the stairs. Although they were prepared, the enormous man-made space below still made them gasp in amazement.

Upon seeing a sword stuck in a stone at the center of the space, Catherine, the museum curator, couldn't help but step forward, and Susannah quickly followed.

However, in the next second, a stone slab more than ten meters high crashed down, separating Rita from Susannah and Catherine.

Stan emerged from the crevice and looked at Rita.

After two days of grueling training, it sought revenge for its previous escape. Stan once again transformed into a cat-shaped Honkai Beasts and pounced on Rita.

On the other side of the stone slab, several well-trained men emerged from nowhere, brandishing high-tech firearms and aiming them at Catherine and Susannah.

Despite the fact that the opponent had a gun, how could an ordinary person possibly defeat Valkyrie of Schicksal? Even as B-rank Valkyrie, Susannah easily dealt with the enemy.

Just as she breathed a sigh of relief, Catherine, whom she was protecting, suddenly pulled out a lady's pistol. Facing the dark muzzle, Susannah's pupils contracted.

"I'm sorry, Susannah, Schicksal, I can't go."

Two gunshots rang out in quick succession, their piercing sound particularly deafening in the silent space. Susannah fell to the ground in a pool of blood.

"Ah?!"

Susannah suddenly stood up, not even bothering to eat.

"I'm just going to die like this?!"

Susannah was completely stunned. She hadn't expected that she wouldn't even survive one episode. It was worse than being an extra.

Now, I've become a mere extra.

"Poor Susannah."

Yarvete said she felt sorry for Susannah, but her eyes were teasing.

Although she has little screen time and no character model yet, at least she's still alive and will have a chance to appear in the future, unlike Susannah died in the Northwest before even entering the Immortal Blades.

"Ah!"

Susannah suddenly lunged at Yarvete, causing her to instinctively scream.

"Haha... I was wrong... I was wrong... Hahaha, Su... Susannah... Don't... Haha, don't tickle me..."

Yarvete is extremely ticklish.

Susannah specifically scratched the soft flesh under the armpit.

Catherine returned to the ground.

The Jackal had been waiting there for a long time, and seeing the plan being executed so easily, his disdain for Schicksal grew even stronger.

Catherine respectfully recounts the plan, while also providing clues to the audience: Rita was caught in the Jackal's scheme from the very beginning, and King Arthur's sword was indeed based on Kevin's deeds.

At the same time, Catherine suggested to the Jackal that since Schicksal had its eye on the second Divine Key Second Divine Key, it should be moved to a more secretive location.

The Jackal chuckled coldly.

The Second Divine Key is placed in the most conspicuous place, and even Schicksal cannot find it, because the ability of Chijie Yicheng is to control space, which cannot be observed from the outside.

Catherine was still thanking the Jackal for his trust in her, and was about to say a few words of loyalty when a bullet pierced her heart.

The pistol held by the Jackal was still emitting gunpowder smoke.

Having learned so many secrets and being targeted by Schicksal, Jackal never intended for Catherine to live from the beginning, since only the dead can best preserve secrets.

In her eyes, Catherine was nothing more than an insignificant pawn in her game.

The Jackal's cold-bloodedness was once again on display for the audience.

"Cold-blooded woman!"

Pardo was furious.

They can accept Raven, who is also a member of World Serpent, because Raven is not bad by nature. She adopts orphans who became victims of the Honkai and her goal is simply to save money to buy a small island to live on in her old age.

But the Jackal was different; cold-blooded, insane, and reckless, these traits seemed to be labels attached to her.

Raven seeks revenge on Kiana because the Herrscher of the Void, upon witnessing Kiana's determination to protect the city and recognizing the differences between Kiana and the Herrscher of the Void, will understand and realize.

Jackal, however, always regarded Kiana as an experimental subject.

This is why audiences are unwilling to accept the Jackal.

"The story of King Arthur was actually based on Kevin's deeds!"

Vill-V's prediction has come true once again.

Everyone present was stunned.

However, the next second, the scene that appeared on the screen surprised them even more.

"Heh, you really are ruthless..."

The Jackal stared in astonishment as Catherine, who should have been dead, slowly got up. Catherine was just an ordinary person; it was impossible for her to survive with her heart pierced through.

"What a waste of my excellent acting skills."

A liquid was forming on Catherine's body, a pale purple, metallic-looking liquid that was reconstructing itself, revealing Otto dressed in a purple bishop's robe.

"Otto?!"

Elysia blurted out, her eyes filled with surprise.

Like the Jackal, she couldn't understand why Catherine had suddenly become Otto.

If Catherine was Otto from the beginning, it doesn't make sense. Why would Otto bring Rita and the others here knowing it was a trap?

But if you're talking about being replaced midway, when did that happen?

Elysia was filled with great doubt.

"The Honkai Steel Body is truly a marvelous disguise."

"Vill-V sighed."

A body forged from Honkai Steel can fundamentally transform into another person. Outsiders can't tell that this person has been replaced except for their tone of voice and subtle movements.

"Otto, you're dressed as a woman again."

Kallen blurted it out, then asked in confusion, "Eh, why did I say 'again'?"

Otto, however, was unaffected and said with a smile, "Kallen, this isn't women's clothing, it's a disguise."

Otto was not surprised by his appearance.

The importance of the Second Divine Key to Kallen's resurrection can be seen from the deal between "him" and Kevin. Once Kallen is involved, this matter becomes a top priority in Otto's mind.

How could it simply be handed over to Rita?

He will definitely participate to ensure everything goes smoothly.

The Jackal stared in astonishment as Catherine transformed into Otto.

It all started when Otto received a clue from Rita. Otto keenly sensed something strange about it; it was an obvious trap.

In order to lure the World Serpent out of its hole, Otto asked Amber to choose a Valkyrie who looked silly and naive.

Amber immediately pulled up the data, and the camera zoomed in on a photo of Susannah. Above her in the photo was Kiana. It has to be said that both of them met Otto's requirements.

Otto ultimately chose Susannah, who had expertise in exploration.

Susannah arrived at headquarters full of excitement, expecting some important mission. However, Amber's task for her turned out to be cleaning Otto's private library for ten days.

During this time, Otto used his new Honkai Steel body to learn and imitate Susannah's behavior and movements, eventually fooling everyone, even Rita.

It was precisely this naive and innocent Valkyrie who became the world's fatal oversight.
