Otto from 500 Years Ago

That innocent and kind-hearted girl, that warrior who only follows orders, that immortal who will surely be slain if he falls into demonic ways, that precocious class monitor, that [Konfident] of the Bishop of Schicksal...

Until she thought of Little Knowledge, the Herrscher born from her body. Fu Hua had a good impression of her, but after defeating the Herrscher of Domination two months ago, her powers returned to her body, and Xiao Shi chose a more extreme path.

The direct cutting off of the energy supply turned the Herrscher Core of Consciousness into a piece of scrap iron.

They completely disappeared without a trace, giving Fu Hua no chance to apologize.

Fu Hua was still quite worried about Little Knowledge, who had run away from home.

"She really did run away from home!"

Elysia was surprised, but also found it somewhat amusing.

Instead of venting her anger, Little Knowledge, puffing up her cheeks, ran away from home, just like a child throwing a tantrum.

But considering Little Knowledge's personality, this choice actually seems quite normal.

"Snort."

Little Knowledge crossed his arms over his chest.

The mere mention of this made her grit her teeth in anger. Now, when you search for "Little Knowledge" online, all you see are results about mothers scamming people. She glared fiercely at Fu Hua.

Fu Hua knew she was in the wrong, so she didn't say anything more.

Wrong.

Fu Hua realized something was wrong. What did she have to be in the wrong about? The plot was written by the screenwriter, not her, and she hadn't done anything like that.

"Every time I see this scene, I feel sorry for Hua. Her endless lifespan is causing her to keep losing. If I put myself in her shoes, I just want to die."

Pardo hugged the Canned Food tightly.

Sakura, who was sitting next to Pardo, had already fallen asleep with her head tilted back in her seat, and a bubble was blowing out of her delicate nose.

Fu Hua went to find Theresa, and just as the two were chatting on the tarmac, Einstein sent an urgent message, interrupting their conversation.

Einstein transmitted the news video that Schicksal was sending to the world to Theresa.

In that video, Otto informed all of humanity about the existence of the Honkai, speaking in glowing terms, but the most important point was still that line from the promotional video.

"In conclusion, I, Otto Apocalypse, hereby resign from my position as Bishop of Schicksal and withdraw from the organization, effective immediately."

"My successor, Theresa Apocalypse, leader of the Far East Branch, will soon assume the position of bishop and assume full authority over the leadership of the Schicksal."

"I believe that under her leadership, the world and the Schicksal will surely have a brighter future."

This concludes the news video.

Theresa and Fu Hua both remained silent.

Even though I had already anticipated that Theresa would be the Bishop of Schicksal in Post-Honkai Odyssey, it still felt somewhat unbelievable when I actually saw Theresa preparing to take over.

"No! If Theresa takes over, the world will be destroyed!"

"It's over, the Dumb Theresa virus is about to spread in the Intrinsic World!"

"Do you remember the beginning of the plan? [In a certain year of the Honkai, the former Bishop of Schicksal Otto of Schicksal announced his abdication, and since then, the world has been plunged into a devastating catastrophe.] It's over, this world is going to be destroyed!"

The comments section was full of jokes.

The main reason is that the fan-made work appeared before this major chapter, making it hard not to make this connection. In the fan-made work, Otto abdicates, and in the main storyline, Otto also abdicates.

"Ah?"

Theresa was stunned.

"I don't want to be a ruler, Grandpa must live to be a hundred years old."

Theresa waved her hand dismissively. From those few lines in the Post-Honkai Odyssey, she could tell that after "herself" became the Bishop of Schicksal, her tone was so weak that she must have been exhausted like a grandson.

The reality is the same; she started the education industry precisely because she didn't want to take over Otto's business.

"Principal, you can think about it from another angle. You once said that President Otto always handed the documents to Secretary Amber. So after you become president, you can hand all the documents to Yaqing. Because of your position as president, he can't really object."

If Yaqing were here, upon hearing this, she would probably think to herself, "Vita truly is a wicked woman."

Vita smiled and narrowed her eyes.

Theresa's eyes lit up after hearing Vita's speech.

Yes, being a CEO allows you to... no, entrust documents to your secretary. So she'd definitely make Yaqing secretary.

Theresa seemed to have already seen that beautiful scene.

Vita smiled.

These words were just used to fool Theresa.

As the Far East Branch and the head of the Schariac family, how could Yaqing possibly become her secretary?

Soon, Welt received a communication from Schicksal.

The other party claimed to welcome Theresa to the old headquarters outside Vienna for a ceremony to succeed her as Bishop of Schicksal, and Schicksal also claimed to have discovered the Herrscher Core the Herrscher of Dominion there, hoping that Anti-Entropy could personally go there to retrieve it.

Knowing full well that this was a conspiracy set up by Otto, they had no choice but to go, because they could not ignore the whereabouts of the Herrscher of Domination's core.

Meanwhile, on the outskirts of Vienna, Otto had made all the preparations, and the next 48 hours would be the most unforgettable weekend.

"The dice have been rolled, and the few remaining uncertainties... we can only leave it to fate."

"Otto Apocalypse confirms that he has prepared everything he can in this gamble that is more extravagant than life and death."

Otto's tone held a hint of madness, a sense of relief at the imminent completion of his plan and a self-deprecating reliance on fate—a plan he had meticulously crafted for five hundred years, yet which still required the intervention of destiny.

The audience can feel Otto's complex emotions.

It was precisely because of its complexity that they were puzzled.

With his long-cherished wish about to be fulfilled and his beloved about to be resurrected, shouldn't Otto feel joy? With his 500-year life coming to an end and evil brought to a close, shouldn't Otto feel fear?

But Otto was nonchalant, so nonchalant that he left the final outcome of his plan to fate.

What is he thinking? What is he trying to do?

Elysia was puzzled.

Meanwhile, most viewers shared the same question as her.

This was Otto's long-cherished wish.

"It is obvious that he lured Kiana and the others to the outskirts of Vienna, and his plans are inextricably linked to their emotions."

Eden guessed.

"However, Kiana and the others' growth has exceeded his control, so he left everything to fate and let fate arrange it."

That's true.

Elysia nodded.

Kiana becomes the Herrscher of Finality, Bronya becomes the Herrscher of Reason, along with Seele and Theresa, and Fu Hua, whose body has returned to its peak.

Even Otto might find it a headache to face such formidable combat power.

Kiana is no longer a lamb to be slaughtered; her strength and her bonds have exceeded Otto's expectations.

Elysia and Eden share the same belief: they believe in the power of love and bonds.

But Mobius and May, being rationalists, didn't believe it.

"You don't really think Otto is the mastermind behind everything. Can Kiana really defy his expectations?"

May glanced at Mobius.

To everyone's surprise, Mobius answered with a smile.

"I believe it, of course I believe it."

"Whispering sound."

Mei pursed her lips.

[We're all old foxes, why are you trying to play these ghost stories with me?]

What kind of person is Mobius? He probably knows him better than anyone.

"Not only do I believe it, but Bishop Otto in the story probably believes it too."

Mobius's words startled Mebius.

Because from the very beginning, everything May guessed was based on her own ideas, and she never tried to understand what Otto was thinking from his perspective.

Chapter 469 Otto from 500 years ago.

During the hour-long Hyperion to Vienna, Theresa encounters Kiana, who is admiring the scenery on the deck. With Otto about to be confronted, Theresa's feelings are complicated, so she wants to have a chat with someone.

Gazing at the Alps, Kiana recalled the memories within the core.

Theresa offered Kiana some simple words of comfort, then went to talk to the others on deck.

Hearing Theresa and Kiana mention Zhenqi's whereabouts during their conversation, all the viewers noticed something was amiss.

Why bring up True Kiana suddenly at this time?

It's said that there's no pointless plot in Honkai, so does mentioning Zhenqi at this time represent a foreshadowing? After all, Otto's story is about to end, and it's time for the hidden Zhenqi to be revealed.

"True Kiana still alive?"

The Kitty was shocked.

It's worth noting that in the recently released Eternal Memory, when True Kiana left Schicksal with Ziegfried, she was hit by a cannonball and fell from a height of several thousand meters.

If he doesn't die, then he's not a normal person.

"It's very possible. The writers of Honkai never write useless plots. If this is foreshadowing, does that mean Zhenqi will appear in this movie?"

Elysia quickly thought of a serious question.

What would Kiana do if Zhenqi were still alive?

Ziegfried initially believed that Kiana was dead, which is why he gave the name Kiana to Kiana, who was then K423.

But if the True Kiana were still alive, Kiana's identity would become very awkward.

Eden took Elysia's hand.

"Elysia is just a name. Kiana's experiences and the love that people around her have for her are not because her name is Kiana. Kiana or K423 are just code names."

"Eden said gently."

Her voice, like a gentle stream, soothed Elysia's worried heart.

"Um!"

Elysia looked at Eden and smiled.

The journey took a swift turn. The Hyperion landed in Korosten Town on the outskirts of Vienna. On the deck, they discussed protecting Kiana and having Theresa and the two doctors from Anti-Entropy make contact with the Schicksal personnel.

Surprisingly, the people who came to greet Theresa were the Immortal Squad, led by their captain, Durandal.

Theresa was blunt and went straight to the point.

Durandal told Theresa about the interlude's experiments, including how she used the Theater of Domination to reconnect the World Bubble to the Imaginary Tree, which shocked Theresa and the others.

Durandal then told them that the spacetime environment in the Korosten Town was abnormal and was very likely related to the out-of-control Herrscher Core. The primary suspect was the core of the Herrscher of Domination that had recently disappeared.

Upon hearing the words "space-time projection, "Tesla was so shocked that he lost his composure.

Einstein's expression was also grim. If what Durandal said was true, the Korosten Town was about to experience the same [Imaginary Invasion] as Changkong City.

To the astonishment of the audience, Durandal answered questions fluently from Tesla and Dr. Einstein, who were completely bewildered and confused.

After a series of technical terms, the two sides exchanged hostages, and Theresa followed Durandal and the civilian members of the Immortal Blades squad into the Hyperion.

Durandal, Tesla, and Theresa travel to the scene to investigate and gather more clues for analysis.

However, just as the three were exploring the eroded area caused by the spacetime projection phenomenon, after dealing with the appearing Honkai Beasts, what appeared before them was enough to make anyone's jaw drop.

Behind the broken wall, Otto, dressed identically to his character in the Iris Chapter, stood covered in dust, clutching his head, his expression one of panic and helplessness—completely devoid of the demeanor of Bishop Otto.

"Um?!"

The audience who witnessed this scene were so shocked that their eyes widened.
