The Real Kiana Is Durandal?!

She felt there was something off about Elysia's words, but she couldn't quite put her finger on it.

Seeing that Bronya was out of danger, Seele breathed a sigh of relief and smiled as she apologized to Dark Seele, but received no response.

The background music also suddenly stopped at this moment.

The audience's hearts skipped a beat.

"Seele...?"

The smile on Seele's face gradually disappeared.

The audience dared not even breathe, cold sweat beaded on their foreheads, and all the worst possible outcomes flashed through their minds.

After a long silence.

There was no response.

Seele couldn't sit still any longer and kept calling out to herself.

The audience was also in a panic. Just when they thought it was a one-for-one trade, Dark Seele's panting, extremely weak voice came through.

"Tsk... It's so noisy, but I'm fine."

"Ah... that scared me to death..."

Seele breathed a sigh of relief and smiled again.

"That scared me to death too..."

Elysia patted her chest.

The sudden stop of the background music and the lack of response from Dark Seele nearly scared Elysia to death.

First it was Bronya, then it was Dark Seele.

It was a feint, which is something to be thankful for.

But the repeated feints were unacceptable to them.

"My goodness, Seele saw this, she'd be terrified and cry."

Little Knowledge suddenly really wanted to see what Seele's expression was like now.

At this moment, Seele, whom Little Knowledge had been longing for, was enjoying the gazes of Kiana, Bronya, and Mei.

"Hey, why are you all looking at me?!"

Seele shrugged, indicating that she didn't care what anyone did.

Just from the tone of her voice, they could tell that the Seele in front of them was not White Seele, but Dark Seele.

"So annoying!"

The next second, Seele's eyes became clear and innocent again.

"Sister Bronya, what happened to the other me?"

Looking into Seele's innocent eyes.

Bronya, Kiana, and Mei exchanged glances.

Without a single word, the Trio decided to make the same choice.

Kiana took the remote and moved the plot forward a few minutes.

After seeing the Seele, Seele froze, her expression instantly turning anxious as she kept calling out to her other self in her mind.

"What? This is so annoying!"

Hearing Dark Seele's impatient voice, Seele's heart finally calmed down.

Dark Seele's voice was very weak, probably because using the Abyss Flower had depleted her life force. Even though she was weak, she didn't forget to tease White Seele.

"Speaking of which, weren't you in a pretty hurry just now?"

"Of course! You can't scare me like that again next time!"

The saying "a straight shot beats a tsundere" might be exactly what this means.

Dark Seele didn't know how to continue speaking for a moment.

Seeing that Dark Seele didn't answer, Seele emphasized it again.

Dark Seele then spoke in a tone that was both indulgent and feigned impatience.

"Okay, okay, yes, yes, yes. I'll be Seele, I'll listen to everything from now on—"

Seele's sweet moment with Dark Seele didn't last long. Suddenly Imaginary Seed, similar to the Divine Grace Barrier that appeared during the Second Honkai, appeared in the sky. Tesla and Einstein hurriedly urged Kiana and the others to leave.

The sweet moments between Seele and Dark Seele brought smiles to the faces of the audience.

But this smile was quickly dispelled by the appearance of the Divine Grace Barrier.

"Are you kidding me? What kind of good person would unleash their ultimate move right from the start?!"

Little Knowledge's eyes widened.

They had already witnessed the terror of the Divine Grace Barrier in the first movie; even Sirin, the six-core Herrscher, acted like a mischievous child within Divine Grace Barrier.

"It's quite obvious that Otto doesn't want to play with them anymore."

Fu Hua frowned.

He would flip the table at the slightest disagreement, which didn't fit her impression of Otto.

Kiana knew she had to retreat quickly, but everyone had just transferred their power to Bronya to construct the Moonlight Throne, and now both Lilia and Bronya were unconscious.

Given the current situation, their evacuation speed is far slower than the spread of the gears of the Imaginary Seed.

Kiana wanted to condense a greatsword to protect everyone, but her power still hadn't recovered.

At this extremely anxious moment, a roar came from the sky, and Theresa, piloting the assault ship aboard the Hyperion, arrived above the church.

Einstein instructed Theresa to pilot the assault ship and cover Kiana and the others' evacuation, but Theresa knew in her heart that most of Kiana and the others had already lost their ability to move and were exhausted.

Therefore, retreat is not an option.

Theresa's idea was to use the Divine Grace Barrier to Authority of Binding equivalent to that of the Imaginary Seed, so that Kiana and the others could be safe.

Einstein and Tesla's expressions changed; they both knew that the Divine Grace Barrier was deadly to Fusion Warrior.

Theresa knew this even better, because she had personally experienced it during the second Honkai.

Einstein and Tesla tried to dissuade Theresa, but they couldn't stop her from risking her life to protect Kiana and the others.

That was a school principal wanting to protect her students; that was an Aunt's determination to protect her niece.

"Ah?!"

Elysia had just breathed a sigh of relief because of Dark Seele, but now she was feeling relieved again.

When she saw Theresa piloting the assault ship and crashing into the Imaginary Seed without hesitation, she felt a surge of anger and wanted to grab the screenwriter and question him loudly in his ear.

What exactly are you trying to do?!

With Bronya near death and Dark Seele's feint attack, the audience is already speechless.

The screenwriter even used this kind of insulting, deceptive trick to mess with them.

If Alicia hadn't known that Theresa later became the Bishop of Schicksal and was still alive and well in the Post-Honkai Odyssey, Elysia would almost have believed it.

"Honestly, I don't know what the screenwriter was thinking."

Pardo clenched her fist.

It's said that a thin person's punch hurts more than a fat person's.

So every time Mobius punched Yaqing in the chest with his little fist, the pain Yaqing showed was not faked.

"The headmaster is definitely not dead, but how she will survive is unknown."

Fu Hua adjusted his red-rimmed glasses.

"Old Gu understands you; you're really blinded by your own involvement."

Little Knowledge patted Fu Hua on the shoulder, made the same gesture, and adjusted the sunglasses he had borrowed from Kalpas.

"Didn't Otto already leave the Abyss Flower behind?"

Fu Hua looked at Little Knowledge with a serious expression.

"That's the question: why did Otto deliberately leave the Abyss Flower behind?"

Fu Hua's glasses, with their reflective surface, make her look like a certain elementary school student who is a death god.

"If Otto takes away the Abyss Flower, Bronya will die, Theresa may also die, and even more so, Durandal will be able to pick up her most familiar weapon after returning from the Imaginary Space."

"Isn't Otto just making things difficult for himself?"

My Little Knowledge has crashed.

"It's easy to understand."

Eden said with a smile.

"Otto once told Durandal that turning back time 500 years was the plan with the highest success rate, but that doesn't mean we have to choose this plan."

Little Knowledge was even more confused, scratching his head and saying, "But given Otto's determination to revive Kallen, shouldn't he have chosen the plan with the highest success rate?"

Faced with Little Knowledge's confusion.

Eden kindly and gently answered her questions.

"Theresa, Kiana, Durandal, Einstein all disapprove of Otto's plan. In their eyes Kallen about the Kallen Otto to revive her?"

Eden was like a teacher in class, constantly posing questions.

Little Knowledge scratched his head vigorously, making his beautiful hair a mess.

"It will happen... Given Kallen's personality, she will probably take all the blame upon herself and fall into endless self-blame."

Fu Hua is a good student.

Before the struggling Little Knowledge could come up with an answer, Fu Hua answered it for her.

"Old fogey! I thought of that a long time ago, I just hadn't had a chance to say it yet!"

Little Knowledge remained stubborn.

Eden smiled gently.

"We've oversimplified Otto, or perhaps we've oversimplified things from Otto's perspective, but Otto had a lot to consider."

"He wanted to revive Kallen, but he didn't want Kallen to be consumed by guilt."

"So he gave Theresa and the others a chance, a chance to stop him, a chance to let him use another plan, which is why he kept Abyss Flower behind."

"On the one hand, we wanted to leave weapons for Durandal, and on the other hand, we didn't want any casualties."

"After all, Theresa and the others were pioneers in the fight against the Honkai."

Eden's eloquent speech.

This made Elysia's eyes shine with admiration.

"No way?"

Pardo had some doubts.

"How could someone as cold-blooded as Otto possibly consider other people's feelings?"

Eden shook his head.

"Pardo, in Otto's heart, Kallen is no ordinary person. How could someone who believes in feelings not be bound by them?"

"So I think Otto is in a dilemma. He wants Theresa and the others to stop him, but Theresa also doesn't want them to stop him."

If Yaqing heard Eden's analysis, he probably wouldn't be able to resist applauding Eden.

It fits perfectly and is full of logic.

But...
