Kaslana Is the People's Shield, Otto Gets Slapped Twice in a Row

Faced with the threat of death, even Kallen couldn't help but close her eyes. But the pain she had imagined didn't come. Instead, she heard the sound of dripping water.

The scene that Kallen saw when she opened her eyes caused her mind to completely shut down.

Otto gripped the tip of the black spear with one hand, its sharp point piercing his flesh, blood dripping from his fingertips onto the ground—the same sound Kallen had just heard.

Seeing that Otto was stopping her from harming Kallen, Eleanor waved helplessly, signaling the two Valkyrie to take Kallen into custody.

Just when Eleanor thought the matter was over, Otto suddenly collapsed.

"Ruthless person."

A hint of respect flashed in Kevin's eyes.

By stopping the abyss with his bare hands, Otto's love for Kallen has gone beyond his concern for his own health.

"Holding the Black Abyss with bare hands, the last person to do that was Boss Kevin. It's a pity that Otto doesn't have Boss Kevin's physical abilities. He would be lucky to escape with his life."

Pardo's eyes were filled with fear, as if she could deeply feel the pain.

The audience had witnessed the terrifying destructive power of the Abyss Flower, and it was precisely because they had seen it that they found Otto's scene of wielding the Black Abyss with his bare hands all the more impressive, inspiring a sense of respect in them.

"If Otto died here, would none of the subsequent events have happened?"

Pardo suddenly realized this.

Mobius shook his head.

"Without Otto, things would probably be much more complicated. Without a convincing leader, the upper echelons would only intensify their infighting; that's human nature."

Mobius felt that Otto's existence was necessary.

Otherwise, humanity would never have been able to unite as one to fight the Honkai. Anti-Entropy is a prime example. If Walter Yang hadn't intervened, Cocolia would have been up to many more schemes.

Power grabs, suppression, internal strife, and so on will likely occur one after another.

This will only make human civilization weaker and weaker, and the Honkai will only become stronger.

"Sister Snake, Otto is going to die eventually, so who will be his successor?"

Pardo was curious.

"Pardo, there's a great screenwriter right here, why are you coming over to ask me instead of asking him? Are you trying to embarrass me?"

Mobius joked, putting on a cold expression to scare Pardo.

As expected, Pardo was frightened.

"Wrong... wrong, Sister Snake!"

"Ha ha ha ha."

Mobius broke down in a second and burst out laughing.

Realizing she had been tricked, Pardo pouted like a cat with its fur standing on end, but dared not say anything to Mobius. Instead, she looked at Yaqing.

Yaqing looked puzzled.

It wasn't him who made the joke, so why is Pardo glaring at him?

After Otto fainted, he smelled a fragrance and seemed to fall into a dream. In the dream, he seemed to return to his childhood.

In the video, young Otto stands before a coffin, surrounded by fluttering Abyss Flower.

"I haven't had this dream in a long time..."

Otto spoke in a reminiscing tone.

When Kallen was little, she always told you how brave her father was...

The narrator's voice was identical to Otto's, but the tone was like someone else talking about life.

When Kallen and Otto were children, they encountered Honkai Beasts and were saved by Kallen's father, Francis, using the Twin Guns of Judgement of Shamash. At that moment, Francis was like a god in Otto's heart.

But one day, Francis died.

The god who would always protect Otto and Kallen in his heart is dead.

Inside the church, Otto stared blankly at the coffin until the pastor's voice, mixed with Kallen's sobs, gradually reached his ears, bringing him back to his senses.

He didn't believe the priest's words, nor did he believe that Francis would unleash the Judgement of Shamash and Honkai Beasts, and he couldn't believe that a "god" could also die.

Until they smelled the charred odor emanating from the coffin, an odor that no amount of flowers could mask.

You can't control your thoughts...

A boy dressed exactly like Otto suddenly appeared behind him, pointing at him. Notably, this boy was entirely devoid of flesh color, appearing as if in shadow.

Silence.

The flames of the Judgement of Shamash will not only devour enemies, but also the user, who may have already seen this coffin, which flashed by in the first movie.

At that time, they did not know that Kallen's father was buried inside. They only knew that he was one of the twenty-three warriors of the Kaslana family who had sacrificed themselves to protect humanity using the Judgement of Shamash over the past 1,500 years.

"Worthy of respect."

Kevin lowered his head.

Not everyone can use the Judgement of Shamash as freely as Kevin. More often, people are like Francis, risking their lives to use the Zero Rated Power to perish together with their enemies.

They deserve respect.

"The surname Kaslana has been elevated to an unprecedented level because of an anime."

Mobius nodded.

Not everyone with the surname Kaslana is related to the Kaslana family, but Kaslana are found all over the world.

What the audience can see is Kaslana's chivalrous spirit in protecting the people.

"This topic is a bit heavy. How about we talk about that little boy, Void Archives?"

Pardo sensed that the atmosphere was a bit strange and wanted to change the subject.

"The First Divine Key Void Archives, forged from the Herrscher of Reason Core. It is the only Divine Key that has shown consciousness. Is this a special characteristic of the Herrscher of Herrscher of Reason, or do other Divine Key also have this feature?"

Mobius frowned.

Scientists like to ask themselves questions and then explore them on their own.

"It should be only the Void Archives; the other Divine Key haven't shown any independent consciousness so far."

Fu Hua spoke up, "At least Yu... does Feather of the Wind have a separate consciousness?"

Fu Hua suddenly realized this, feeling puzzled and confused.

"Instead of discussing this, let's discuss whether Void Archives has been by Otto's side for too long and has been corrupted by Otto."

Little Knowledge gets a headache whenever he thinks of the Void Archives from "Post-Honkai Odyssey". He thought everyone would be happy after Otto died, but then another Otto X popped up.

"I personally think that if it really was Divine Key crafted by Vill-V or May, it shouldn't have such a soul, unless..."

Little Knowledge's gaze involuntarily drifted towards Yaqing.

Almost simultaneously, Kevin, Pardo, Fu Hua, and Mobius all looked over.

I almost forgot, there's also Otto S in the Golden Courtyard.

Yaqing was speechless.

First, Pardo stared at him inexplicably, and then everyone's eyes turned to him.

Is it some kind of endangered animal?

And the way he looked at me was really weird, like... he was looking at some kind of Divine Key that had come to life.

This will also be Kallen's final fate.

The Abyss Flower on the coffin begin to burn, the scene shifts, and little Otto suddenly transforms into Otto, clenching his fists.

"No, I will protect Kallen now."

Otto reached out to touch little Kallen, who was weeping while holding the coffin, but his hand vanished like flames, and the Abyss Flower used for the memorial service around them began to burn as if a fire had broken out.

Otto turned around abruptly, trying to find Kallen, but inexplicably felt drawn to something. He pushed open the coffin lid, and Kallen lay quietly inside, about to be burned to ashes.

"Kallen!!"

Otto's eyes widened.

See? You can't protect her at all.

Void Archives reappeared, with two square boxes, one gold and one blue, floating in its left and right hands.

Unless, of course, the power of those two boxes is used.

Otto awoke with a start, gasping for breath.

Otto may have just seen it as a nightmare, but the audience knew it was very likely a vision of the future; the Void Archives' predictions were indeed very accurate.

446

Chapter 446 Kaslana is the shield of the people, Otto who gets slapped twice in a row.

"Why does this feel like a fairy tale?"

Little Knowledge's expression was strange.

She remembered the bedtime story that Old Gu told her when she was little... no, back then he should be called Little Antique. It was a story about a river god.

Upon closer reflection, isn't the Void Archives's approach just like the River God's? There are two boxes, a gold box and a blue box, but Otto ultimately said that neither was right, and that he needed the black box!

"More or less. Maybe the Void Archives wanted to tease Otto, or maybe it's just the writers' quirky sense of humor."

Fu Hua's storyline feels more like a product of the screenwriter's twisted sense of humor.

"Speaking of which, I have a question: why haven't we seen the Void Archives since the first movie?"

Kevin scratched his head.

If it weren't for the sudden appearance of the Void Archives this web series, many viewers would have forgotten about its existence. Even when the Queen's Arrival Queen of Void attacks the Schicksal Headquarters, there is no mention of the Void Archives in the plot.

"Perhaps it's because the Void Archives has its own consciousness, Otto felt it was too dangerous?"

Pardo gave an explanation that even she herself didn't believe.

Did Otto sense danger in the Void Archives? Or what made Otto feel danger? He even dared to Mimicry: Judgment of Shamash from behind the scenes when facing the so-called Collapse God.

"That depends on whether Kevin is referring to consciousness or physical form when he says 'the Void Archives'? If it's physical form, have you forgotten the scene where Otto shot Hua dead?"

Mobius couldn't help but laugh.

Fu Hua's face darkened.

Ever since the topic of the Void Archives in the main storyline came up, she hadn't dared to say a word, afraid that the fire would spread to her. But what she didn't know was that even if she didn't speak, the fire still came to her.

"Pfft, hahahaha, hiccup."

Little Knowledge hadn't intended to laugh, but upon seeing Fu Hua's expression, he couldn't help but burst into laughter.

The result was that Fu Hua was soon sanctioned.

After Otto woke up from his dream, he didn't have time to think about the details of the dream. He just wanted to see Kallen had been taken away as soon as possible.

When he arrived at the prison without stopping, the Archbishop of Schicksal was trying to persuade Kallen. When he saw Otto, the archbishop patted him on the shoulder and told him to try to persuade Kallen again before leaving.

It's a scene that the audience is familiar with.

Kallen and Otto were separated by a fence.

That scene appeared in "The Taixu Dream Records," where Little Knowledge saw it after stealing Otto's memory feather. It was also the first time the audience saw Otto so vulnerable, begging Kallen to fulfill the marriage agreement to avoid death.

Otto entered the cell and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Kallen was alright. He stroked Kallen's soft white hair, knowing that his experiments would never be tolerated by Kallen, but he still explained.

Upon hearing Otto say that in order to defeat the Honkai, it was necessary to conduct experiments on those girls, Kallen angrily slapped away Otto's hand that was touching her head, and declared righteously that those girls were the ones he was protecting.

"To protect them from the Honkai... I am willing to give my life!"

Otto Ptsd moved, recalling the scene of Kallen disappearing in front of him in his dream. He couldn't hold back his emotions any longer and grabbed Kallen's hands, pinning them against the wall.

"Stop joking!!"

Kallen stared at Otto, whose anger was undisguised. She had never seen Otto so emotional, and she was stunned for a moment.

Otherwise, given the Kaslana family's superhuman strength, Otto's frail body simply wouldn't have been able to subdue Kallen.

"You think you can save the world by sacrificing yourself? Yao! Look at what happened to your father—the dead can't do anything!"
