Chapter Ninety-Nine: Kallen, About to Go Home / Chapter One Hundred: The Greatest of Life's Three Delusions
"You've helped me so much, and this is all I can do to repay you." (The author didn't omit the word "you".)
P. S.: What follows is a humorous preview of the ending. If you don't like it, you can skip it; it doesn't count towards the word count.
Chapter 1: After defeating the Four Heavenly Kings under Lord Green Otto, the final battle finally arrived. Lord Green Otto, possessing unknown power, was exceptionally strong. Even with Mo Yi leading thirteen Herrscher, plus Auntie, Himeko, and others, they were no match for Lord Green Otto, who seemed to have activated an invincible cheat code. They were quickly defeated... In the very end, 'Little Fire, we're going to fight to the death, are you afraid?' 'No, I'm already satisfied to have come this far with Father.' Then, let the will of all humanity, and my life, burn in this one strike! Lord Green Otto, spitting out blood, roared, 'Why, why! You always have to stop me! I just wanted to create a happy world where Kallen exists!' You will all die!!
Chapter 99: Kallen, About to Go Home
In a coastal city of Shenzhou, Kallen, Sin Hunter who had been missing by the Yue Xia for nearly a month and had been away on missions for the Cultivator Association, walked into a small alley where a couple was embracing.
He drew his spear from his waist, charged it with Honkai Energy, and fired it at them.
At that moment, the woman who was passionately kissing him just 0.1 seconds earlier suddenly released the man and jumped away. The light bullet only pierced the motionless body of the man, who had two bloody holes in his neck and was already dead.
After being pierced by the light bullet, the man, who should have died, suddenly opened his eyes in a ferocious manner, as if trying to grab something, but disappeared in a second as a wisp of white smoke.
The woman, with a trace of blood still at the corner of her mouth, looked at Kallen with a mixture of anger and fear, and roared, "Sin Hunter, what do you want from me? I've already fled from the Far East to the Shenzhou, living like a rat in the street!"
"Whether it's True Ancestor, Dead Apostle, or a vampire, none of them should exist in this world."
Kallen-face remained expressionless, unmoved by the man who had turned into white smoke earlier, or the Dead Apostle woman who was now running rampant in the Far East. Her eyes held only mechanical indifference, perhaps with a hint of compassion hidden deep within them.
"You're long dead. What you are now is nothing but a monster who still thinks he's himself, clinging to life."
"No way!!"
The woman emanated crimson energy fluctuations and gritted her teeth as she said, "This is the me I want to be! Humans, those lowly and fragile creatures, are nothing more than food for our Moon Clan!"
Faced with the woman's anger, Kallen coldly uttered two words.
"Sad."
"Sin Hunter, you traitor—"
The woman, who knew she was no match for Kallen, had her attention distracted by some words from the Dead Apostle Kallen: "You monopolize the power of the Moon Princess, fine, but why do you still slaughter us! We are clearly your kind! To humans, you are nothing but an anomaly!"
"No matter how much you've done for them, when the so-called peace arrives, that will be the time for you to be held accountable. Your end will be far worse than mine!"
Upon hearing the words 'Moon Princess,' Kallen's unwavering gaze flickered for a moment, and she muttered to herself, 'So what? I shouldn't have existed in the first place—'
At this moment, the woman finally found a good opportunity to attack. If she could hold off her opponent for half a second, she could escape from the legendary Moon Clan assassin, the woman known as the Sin Hunter.
A powerful mental shockwave struck Kallen.
She had been displaying strong Moon Energy fluctuations to mislead her opponent into thinking she was about to launch an energy-based attack, when in fact she was most skilled in mental attacks.
Once hit by this attack, the opponent will be trapped in a maze of memories. No matter how strong the opponent is, as long as they are a creature with emotions and memories, they will inevitably have something deeply etched in their memory. Being trapped in it will be enough to immobilize them for a period of time, allowing her to slip away.
I don't believe that once we venture deeper into the Shenzhou Continent, they will dare to pursue us.
"I have neither a past nor a future, only the present as I see it. Your little tricks are useless against me—"
The woman had just turned around when she heard Kallen's emotionless voice behind her, followed by a kick that snapped her back, smashing her against the concrete slab. (As Kiana's awakened soul, isn't it natural that Kallen is skilled in Gun Fu using kicks?)
A minute later, just as Kallen was about to turn and leave, the thing that had turned into a pool of red liquid on her back transformed back into the shape of a woman. The woman stretched out her right hand, about to deliver a righteous heart-piercing blow to Kallen.
At that moment, without even turning her head, Kallen delivered a spinning kick, her right foot, glowing with silver light, sending the woman's head flying.
A second later, the head that was still flying in the air and the red liquid on the ground turned into white smoke and drifted towards the full moon in the sky.
Stepping out of the alley, Kallen embraced the moonlight once more, looked up at the seemingly unchanging full moon, and murmured to herself, "Finally, I can go home to see Theresa. I wonder if she's been behaving herself and only eating one chocolate a day?"
Mo Yi, who had just finished breakfast, felt incredibly pleased to see Raiden Mei Mo Yi, who had taken the initiative to clear the table without warning and then refused his help by saying it was "my humble gratitude."
It had been so long since he had enjoyed such a carefree life. Although Mo Yi didn't smoke and didn't experience the blissful feeling of having a cigarette after a meal, simply lying there and watching the beautiful Miss Mei working hard filled him with happiness.
No wonder Kiana usually likes to lie in Mo Yi's current spot after meals, watching Mo Yi clean up the dishes.
Happiness is indeed found through comparison!
Of course, Mo Yi is twice as happy as Kiana right now. First, he can lie there, and second, he can watch Miss Mei bend over and move around. It's like a silken experience.
Kiana, you used to get happiness from me, so it's only right that I get double the happiness from your wife now.
Lying on the sofa, feeling a little tired, Mo Yi suddenly had this thought: should he find a girlfriend like Miss Mei?
But with so many things to do, it's really hard to find someone.
She just needs to be plain and beautiful, matching her ordinary yet handsome appearance, and have a gentle, wifely personality like Miss Mei. Money doesn't matter, since Mo Yi has already become Official Player and needs crystals, not paper money.
The only difficult part is getting the other party to understand and support your career (playing games), that's the hardest part.
Now that I think about it, there really isn't anyone around who completely meets the criteria. Kiana can be ruled out, but Miss Mei has Kiana. Her Highness the Princess meets the career requirements, but she's even less reliable than me. Wouldn't I be feeding her every day while she's playing games?
Yue Xia still young, and it's hard to say what her personality will be like when she grows up. She might end up like Kallen or Auntie.
Besides these four, Mo Yi couldn't find any other samples to filter—it was really frustrating!
Miss Mei was washing the dishes, was also very happy. She even hummed the "Tooth Extraction Song" that she had learned from Yue Xia while washing the dishes. She had been feeling Mo Yi's occasional glances at her since earlier.
There's no doubt that women have a radar-like intuition for how men look at them.
Miss Mei thought to herself: It seems I'm quite charming after all.
Aside from that, she suddenly felt inexplicably happy while eating. She was feeling lonely, but suddenly had a different feeling, which was different from the feeling of eating with everyone last night.
The main problem was that Kiana wasn't there; only she, Mo Yi, and Yue Xia were present. It looked like a typical family meal.
With Kiana added, it's like a gathering of friends and classmates, the feeling is definitely different.
PS: Chapter Two: After exchanging blows, the true final battle (like elementary school kids throwing punches) unfolded. Finally, the battle reached its climax. Mo Yi and Lord Green Otto used their right hands to deliver a heart-piercing blow to each other's hearts, and stood there. "Let's die together—" Mo Yi's mind began to replay many things; this was probably a final burst of energy before death. Before taking his last breath, he headbutted Lord Green Otto on the forehead, and both fell to the ground. The other players, already fallen, could only lie there, screaming. A full minute later, someone finally stood up from the deathly silence of the battlefield—"I won't go to hell until I see Kallen with my own eyes..." he said, stumbling towards Mo Yi to check if he was dead. He didn't finish him off, taking him back for experiments. At that moment, "Ah—" Lord Green Otto suddenly screamed—"Kiana, how are you still conscious! Didn't we agree to lend your body and power to Grandpa? Only I truly care about you! 'Mo, Mo Yi ... Ahhh!' With a scream, deep within Green Otto, numerous cracks appeared, then split open, revealing a girl dressed in Theresa habit. Her face was identical to Kiana's, who lay nearby. A single drop of water dripped from her chin onto the ground onto her cold face. (The true protagonist and final boss of this book is actually not Mo Yi or Lord Green Otto, lol.)
Chapter 100: The First Illusion of Life's Three Major Illusions
Two weeks have passed since Raiden Mei temporarily stayed at Mo Yi's house.
Over the past ten days or so, most things have been developing in a positive direction.
Miss Pufferfish's favorability rating has reached 96 points. Although the rate of increase is getting slower and slower, it is not far from 100.
