Kevin: "Su, You Betrayed Me?!"
Otto and Stan both breathed a sigh of relief.
Otto was actually threatened by Durandal.
The audience was surprised to see this, because Otto had left them with the impression of being a calculating, seemingly gentlemanly but actually treacherous and cunning ruler.
Watching Otto and Durandal's interactions, one can sense the deep affection between them. In their hearts, Durandal poses no threat to Otto, yet Otto still goes along with Durandal.
"Durandal so strong, even Otto is afraid of her. Indeed, strength is the only true measure of strength."
Elysia was amazed.
"That's not fear, Elysia. You know, Otto is neither humble nor arrogant when facing Kevin. Kevin is someone who can shut down the Finality in one hit."
Mei smiled and shook her head.
"This is too much pampering."
Sakura complained.
One second he looked disgusted, but when he saw that Durandal really wanted to raise her, he took the opportunity to back down.
"If I didn't know that Durandal's real name is Kaslana, I would have suspected that she and Otto had some special relationship just because of her blonde hair."
Bell's rant.
The expressions on the faces of these two sisters were exactly the same, and they were full of complaints.
"Rita was the same way. She was holding a grudge and was about to take action, but when Durandal shifted the blame to Otto and heard Otto admit it, she put away her weapon without the slightest hesitation."
For a moment, Mei saw the shadows of Kiana and Mei in Durandal and Rita.
"That's true."
Elysia nodded.
Otto sent Catherine back; the woman still had value to Schicksal. He, Rita, and Durandal returned to London.
At the same hotel, Otto accessed a lot of information and gleaned many clues from the loosely controlled Jackal. He deduced that the Jackal's desperate attempts to stop them meant that the Second Divine Key must be hidden somewhere in London.
Therefore, Otto dispatched many Schicksal mechs to continuously emit ultrasonic waves for a carpet scan. By measuring the time it took for the sound waves to return, he could determine the location of the hidden space.
Durandal was worried that with such a big move, the Jackal would definitely not let it go.
With the enemy in the open and us in the shadows, Otto entrusted the most dangerous place to Durandal.
They soon discovered a distorted space above the Thames River, and Durandal remained vigilant about her surroundings.
As Otto ordered the launch of the Honkai energy fission beam, the spatial barrier was damaged, and a steampunk-style locomotive appeared before the audience.
Unlike the other Divine Key that have appeared, the Second Divine Key is extremely large, and is clearly not intended as a personal weapon.
On the rooftop of a tall building, the Jackal watched angrily as Schicksal found the Second Divine Key, pinning his hopes on this final safeguard.
The image shows Kevin dressed in black, holding the Judgement of Shamash, from behind.
From the Jackal's inner thoughts, we can learn that the Second Divine Key not only has a spatial storage, but is also protected by a fake body created by Kevin using one percent of his power.
"Anyone who dares to seize the Divine Key will be crushed by the will left behind by the Lord."
This concludes episode two.
"Stop breastfeeding, stop breastfeeding."
Kevin was genuinely afraid of the Jackal. He felt that the protective measures he had left behind in the story were actually quite comprehensive, using space to cover up the Chijie Yicheng, making it impossible for others to observe it from the outside.
Unexpectedly, Otto easily extracted this crucial measure from the Jackal's mouth.
Then the Jackal pinned his hopes on his fake body, and unsurprisingly, his fake body was also defeated by Durandal.
"It looks like another earth-shattering battle is about to unfold."
Upon hearing what Vill-V said, Kosma's eyes lit up immediately.
The battle between Durandal and Kevin left a deep impression on the audience. The strongest of the Previous Era versus the strongest of the current civilization, although neither of them seemed to be using their full strength, it was still a feast of special effects presented to the audience.
Now Durandal is about to encounter Kevin again... a fake body with one percent of his power.
How could one not feel that excited?
The audience was convinced that Durandal would win.
Even if Durandal's combat power is indeed inferior to Kevin's, it shouldn't be that she loses to a fake body with only one percent of her power.

Chapter 428 Kevin: Sue, you betrayed me?!
Vill-V stared in amazement at the Chijie Yicheng, which was only showing its front end.
From the moment she first saw the Second Divine Key, she realized that she seemed to have fallen in love with this creation, as if it were made for her.
Steampunk style.
What a long and beautiful car model, what a majestic and imposing vehicle, how...
If it weren't for the fact that it's not allowed in reality, Vill-V could really replicate a train called Chijie Yicheng at a 1:1 scale.
[The third episode automatically jumps to the scene, but instead of the grand finale viewers were expecting, it shows Durandal and Rita enjoying a delightful afternoon tea in the Schicksal Garden of Destiny.]
"Huh?"
Elysia was stunned.
Is it told in reverse chronological order?
The beginning of this episode doesn't connect with the end of the previous episode at all, leaving viewers completely confused and forced to guess at the use of flashbacks.
[Just as Elysia had guessed, Durandal enjoyed afternoon tea while reminiscing about the events of the previous day, marveling at the sheer size and grandeur of the Second Divine Key.]
Durandal mentioned the guardian of the Second Divine Key, a battle that still excites her to this day. Rita was also quite surprised, as she hadn't seen an enemy who could rival Durandal in a long time.
"Is it... a little small?"
Durandal recalled that the scene showed Kevin standing on the Thames, only now he was a child, carrying a miniature version of the Judgement of Shamash.
"So cute!"
Elysia's eyes lit up, and she had no doubt that if the Kevin doll were in front of her, she would hug it and squeeze it hard.
Mei stared intently, not even blinking, a strange blush on her face, lost in thought.
"This is... me?"
Kevin looked puzzled.
The real Kevin has a cold, aloof expression, but when that expression is placed on the Kevin doll's face, it gives the audience a cute feeling of a child pretending to be an adult.
"Yaqing, will this also have related merchandise?"
Elysia couldn't help but ask.
Schicksal has produced many merchandise figures, which have been well-received by audiences since their release. This is why Far East Branch has remained popular even after its transition from a movie to a web series.
Especially Elysia, she would stay up all night to snatch up every time a new armed doll was released, without fail. She would only ask Yaqing for help if she couldn't find the doll.
Yaqing naturally knew that the people around her would like armed characters, so she would deliberately reserve one hundred sets when they were released.
Yaqing then looked at Kevin.
He nodded only after Kevin nodded.
When Elysia saw the two nod, she couldn't help but feel a little excited.
The tense and exciting sales phase has begun again.
Elysia made up her mind that this time she would not ask Yaqing for help.
The battle between the armed puppet Kevin, wielding a replica of the Judgement of Shamash, and Durandal was earth-shattering, destroying an entire block next to London Bridge.
The budget alone required for compensation left Otto in despair, Amber suggested canceling the sequel to Kallen Fantasy.
In the final battle, the armed puppet attempted to use the Divine Key to enter the Sea of Quanta and perish together with it. If Durandal hadn't used all her strength, she probably wouldn't have been able to bring back the Second Divine Key.
Durandal possesses a special power that allows her to move freely in the Sea of Quanta, but this power can only be maintained for 3 minutes.
Upon returning to Schicksal, Otto eagerly began researching the Second Divine Key. Despite sustaining significant damage in the battle, Otto still managed to discover many things.
For example, in the legend of King Arthur, the King of Great Britain attempted to use the Divine Key to establish a new home in the Sea of Quanta, but failed each time. Merlin and Arthur were at odds over this, which eventually led to a devastating civil war.
The subsequent data was lost due to damage, so Otto entrusted this important task to Catherine, treating her like a beast of burden, working overtime until she was exhausted.
Durandal stood up and sighed that it had been a fulfilling holiday. She wished they could travel together again in the future and invited Rita to be her tour guide once more.
The final image is a group photo.
It looks so warm and cozy.
"Great! It's a happy ending!"
This is the kind of ending Elysia would love to see.
She didn't like those tear-jerking storylines, even though they were touching enough, because she felt there was a deep sense of regret in them.
"But why is this episode so short?"
Ling scratched her head.
"It's simple, because the next episode is a new chapter."
Sakura touched Rin's head.
The legend of King Arthur...
Mei glanced deeply at the television.
She was now very curious about what role Kevin would play in the story of King Arthur. If he was Merlin, then who would the Lady of the Lake, whom Merlin was infatuated with, be?
Su suddenly shivered, utterly puzzled.
"As expected, the Second Divine Key has been taken by Schicksal. It's all Jackal's fault for being so loose-lipped."
Kevin harbored deep resentment.
Otto was able to find the Second Divine Key so quickly largely thanks to the information the Jackal gave him. As the lord of the World Serpent, Kevin was exhausted by having such subordinates as "Kevin".
But their happiness didn't last long.
The next episode, however, shocked everyone in the Golden Courtyard.
"Another leaf has fallen..."
A hand wearing a black glove caught the falling dead leaf.
The camera slowly pulls back, revealing a man sitting against a large tree, his gray hair and eyes closed.
"Su?!"
Mei blurted out.
Everyone was filled with surprise; even Su himself hadn't expected him to suddenly appear at this moment.
Has Su Ye made his appearance?
Kevin was clearly unaware of anything and was still happy about his good friend's appearance.
One by one, old friends appeared in the courtyard, and those who did not appear were even more anxious, but none of them showed it.
Yaqing could clearly feel several gazes directed at her.
Looking at the withered leaves, Su's inner thoughts are heard by the audience through narration. Dr. MEI has set a plan to fight against the Honkai, and what he is carrying out is the "Hengsha" project to observe other worlds.
The falling of each leaf represents the decay of a world.
The tens of thousands of withered leaves beneath Su's feet were the result of his observations of countless worlds, like grains of sand in the Ganges, in his quest to find a way to overcome the Honkai, yet not a single leaf could escape withering.
However, when he looked up again, the tree was still lush and leafy. Su understood that his limited life could not see the endless leaves, but fortunately he had found his answer.
Su walked to the water's edge, where withered leaves floated on the surface, but more importantly, the sound of Kevin standing in front of the cherry blossom tree was reflected in the water.
Sue called Kevin her best friend.
"Back then, I deceived you and trapped you in the Sea of Quanta. To atone for my sins, I also locked myself in the Second Divine Key."
Every time a withered leaf fell, Sue would come to the riverbank and look at Kevin.
But today, the river surface actually rippled slightly, and Sue and Kevin were both startled.
