Kiana was furious.

Firstly, Kallen treated her very well, Kiana's personality may be due to being raised by Kallen since childhood. Secondly, the people from the Schicksal Church spoke very rudely.

"If Otto is targeting this kind of person, I absolutely won't say a word!"

Kiana said that working overtime was already tiring enough, and even sneaking a moment to watch a web series made her angry.

Unfortunately, Little Knowledge didn't come to work, so Kiana had to stay alone in Yaqing's office.

If you want to eat something, just grab the snacks that Yaqing has treasured; if you want to drink something, just grab the soda that Yaqing has stored in the refrigerator.

This isn't going to work; it's living like a god.

"Knock knock knock..."

Hearing the knock on the door, Kiana was startled and almost dropped the potato chips in her hand. She scurried under the desk like a thief.

The person who came was Rita. She knew that Yaqing hadn't come to work, but she heard noises coming from Yaqing's office, so she came in out of curiosity to check.

Everything around her seemed normal, but as Rita looked at the desk, she couldn't help but burst into laughter.

There was a tuft of white hair on the desk, swaying back and forth with the air conditioner's breeze.

Realizing that it was the young lady slacking off again, Rita smiled, didn't interrupt, and quietly closed the door and left.

"Phew, luckily I hid it well enough, otherwise people would have found out I was slacking off."

Kiana breathed a sigh of relief, patted her now-amplified chest, crawled back up from under the desk, and continued watching the web series.

Kallen gritted her teeth in anger at what the middle-aged man said. In her view, he was imposing non-existent sins on ordinary people, while those who truly deserved punishment were not being punished at all.

Otto saw through Kallen's emotions, so he cupped her pretty face and said in a deep voice.

"I know what you're thinking, Kallen. But an eye for an eye won't change anything."

Otto took Kallen's hand and led her to a square crowded with people. On the platform of the square, a red-haired woman wearing a mask was giving a speech.

She conveyed the corruption of Schicksal to the people, informing them of its Schicksal and disregard for their lives. The red-haired woman drew her rapier and pointed it at Kallen, or more precisely, at the badge on Kallen's chest.

Just then, a commotion broke out in the crowd. The missionary from Schicksal came over and forcibly pinned the red-haired woman down. Kallen put on the woman's mask and, from who knows where, found some linen clothes. In full view of everyone, she rescued the woman.

Arriving at a small alley, the woman said that Kallen had dirtied the mask, but there was a strange sense of shame on her face. In the end, she still gave the mask to Kallen.

Otto witnessed this scene firsthand; it had been so long since he had seen Kallen smile genuinely.

"He complained, but his face turned red. Why does this personality seem so familiar?"

After Little Knowledge finished speaking, the others silently turned their gazes toward Mobius.

Even Yaqing, who was enjoying a lap pillow, looked over, though her eyes were covered by something and she couldn't see Mobius's pretty face at all.

Why are you all staring at me?

Mobius could naturally sense the gazes of others, but how could she, being so stubborn, easily admit it?

"Nothing."

Kevin certainly wouldn't dare push Mobius too far, after all, Mobius was one of his superiors.

Kevin said it was nothing, and Fu Hua and Little Knowledge didn't say much, so they changed the subject to Otto.

"To be honest, Otto is quite good at picking up girls... but it's not very useful."

Little Knowledge waved his hand.

If it were anyone else, they would probably have succumbed to Otto's treatment long ago, but Kallen is different; she is destined to be bewitched by the wicked fox of the Far East.

"I'm actually very curious about one thing: what exactly is the relationship between Otto and Kallen right now?"

Fu Hua suddenly spoke.

If we're talking about lovers, we're definitely not quite there; if we're talking about friends, then we're a bit too intimate.

Who knows?

Little Knowledge leaned against Fu Hua, and after his initial burst of energy wore off, he became listless.

Kevin felt extremely embarrassed.

One leans on the shoulder, the other enjoys a lap pillow.

He was sitting alone on the beanbag chair.

Mei, I miss you!

Kevin felt like crying but had no tears left to shed.

Meanwhile, Meiko, who was conducting the experiment, had no idea about Kevin; her attention was entirely focused on the experiment, with Jackal acting as both her assistant and a devoted fan.

[The scene suddenly shows Otto's memories. It was in 1465 when Otto, as a child, fiddled with his little airplane all night and watched it fly with great excitement.]

But it was smashed to pieces by a pebble, and the remains fell to the other side of the wall.

Faced with his brother's mockery, young Otto tried to climb over the wall to retrieve his work, but due to his physical condition, he kept slipping off the wall. Looking at the scars on his hands, he felt a pang of pain in his heart.

"Heave-ho, heave-ho..."

Just then, a white fluffy ball suddenly popped out from the other side of the wall, startling little Otto, who then wore an excited smile on his face.

"It just flew so high!"

The little dumpling took out the smashed toy airplane from its bosom.

Did you make this?

"I did it..."

Little Otto nodded subconsciously.

Unexpectedly, this attracted admiring glances.

Wow! You're so amazing, you're sure to become a great inventor someday!

This was the first time Otto, who had been abandoned by everyone, had heard encouragement from others. Looking at Kallen's bright smile, it was like a ray of light shining into Otto's heart—a ray of hope.

Little Kallen jumped down from the wall.

"By the way, great inventor, I have another request."

Kallen stood with her hands behind her back, her eyes crinkling with a smile.

Little Otto looked flattered, as if he couldn't believe someone would say that to him.

"Come help me save the world!"

This was their first encounter. To outsiders, it might have seemed like an ordinary meeting, but it was the goal that Otto had pursued for five hundred years, living like a ghost in the world.

"No wonder, now I understand why Otto was willing to do anything to revive Kallen."

Fu Hua sighed.

Imagine a girl holding your hand when everyone disapproves of you and looks down on you, asking you to help her save the world. That's beyond what a "white moonlight" can describe.

No one could have imagined that this frail boy would later become the leader of humanity, the most terrifying ruler.

"The screenwriter of this web series is definitely not Welt."

Little Knowledge was absolutely certain.

The scene depicting Kallen and Otto's first encounter is either a personal account written by Otto himself or a beautifully crafted story by Yaqing; it could never have been written by Walter Yang.

"Speaking of which, can Otto really revive Kallen?"

Little Knowledge scratched his head.

The debate about whether Otto can resurrect Kallen has been ongoing online ever since the first movie ended. Some say he can, some say he can't, and everyone has their own interpretation.

"Resurrection, the word depends on how you define it."

Mobius petted Yaqing like he was petting a dog.

"Otto tried many methods, such as using Kallen's genes and the Herrscher of Success, but so far they have all failed, or rather, none of them have achieved the resurrection that Otto envisioned."

Mobius suddenly remembered the first movie, the hint that the Collapse God gave to Otto, what exactly did it mean to kill himself with a gun?

Judging from Otto's current plan, he's heading to the Imaginary Tree. Does that mean he's going to Kallen's? That would be a bit melodramatic.

Mobius clicked his tongue.

Although she knew that the so-called multiple screenwriters were actually only Yaqing, she still didn't think to ask.

Otto and Kallen, who were far away in Central Europe, were stunned when they saw this scene.

Even if they are not exactly the same, their development is roughly the same.

A blush rose on Kallen's face.

The words I uttered as a child about saving the world have now bounced back at me like a boomerang.

Otto, however, was puzzled.

When he first met Kallen, Yaqing wasn't even a cell in the machine, so how could he know so much detail?

Judging from Kallen's expression, it was definitely not her who told Yaqing.

"Oh."

Otto smiled, as if he had understood something, and his doubts and confusion were gone.

"Otto, are you laughing at me?"

Kallen's face turned bright red.

"How could that be?"

Otto gently pulled Kallen into his arms.

Just as he thought when he was a child in the story, Kallen was indeed like a ray of light shining into his heart, letting him know that he could also be someone's hope.

Love at first sight.

Otto only understood the meaning of this idiom when he first met Kallen.

For him.

There are three most important days in this world, which are also the happiest days of his life.

Kallen's birthday, the day I first met Kallen, the day I spent time with Kallen.

443

Chapter 443 Lady Green Lily makes her appearance; silence is the Cambridge of tonight.

While Otto and Kallen being all lovey-dovey, Walter Yang felt as uncomfortable as if he had swallowed a fly.

He truly regretted watching the newly released web series when he had no classes in the afternoon.

You should have left as soon as you saw Otto on the cover.

"That's not what I want to see!"

Walter Yang's aversion to Otto went beyond the corruption of the Schicksal Board of Directors at the time and the separation of Anti-Entropy from Schicksal; it was more a matter of personal hatred.

How can this be explained?

Otto likes to tease Walter Yang when he has nothing better to do, just like Yaqing likes to tease Theresa.

So when Walter Yang saw Otto's happy and sweet scenes, he frantically clicked to skip them, but after all, the main characters of this web series are Otto and Kallen.

That evening, Kallen excitedly told Otto that she wanted to rob the rich to help the poor.

When Otto heard the words, "Help me, Otto, let me become a great phantom thief!", he agreed without the slightest hesitation.

The first step to becoming a phantom thief is clothing. Kallen didn't understand why Otto had so many clothes that fit her size. In the end, Kallen chose a purple-black outfit.

The second step was the props. Otto prepared many strange and wonderful props for Kallen. Soon, the third step came: releasing the announcement letter.

The next day, Victor's mansion received a notice. Upon seeing the words "hidden underground," Victor's expression changed, and he immediately ordered the knights to seal off the basement.

"This is... Otto's XP, right?!"

Little Knowledge witnessed another costume change show.

The last time she had a memorable costume show was in the first movie when Cecilia took Sirin shopping for clothes. Every time she tried on an outfit, a completely new model had to be made, which made the modeling department miserable.

In particular, the outfits that Otto made Kallen wear were extremely sexy, with skirts that never reached the middle of her thighs, and her exposed long legs were very eye-catching.
