The Spirit of Welt Will Live on in Anti-Entropy
Welt shouted urgently.
Siegfried: "???"
So, he really did die, right?
Otherwise, how could someone like Raiden Ryoma, who has been dead for over a year, suddenly reappear?
In the lounge.
After a "friendly" exchange, the three people, who had very different experiences but shared the same fate, finally sat down facing each other.
"So, you were also arrested by that imposter?"
While making tea for the group, Raiden Ryoma asked Siegfried a question.
"I fought that imposter for three hundred rounds before finally being defeated and captured."
Siegfried corrected him earnestly.
Even if the result is the same, the process is very important.
"Heh..." Seeing through the playboy's stubbornness at a glance, Raiden Ryoma was too lazy to expose him and asked, "How did that guy find you?"
Based on what he knew before his arrest, Siegfried was probably the one whose whereabouts were the most elusive among them.
However... it's not surprising that even Alliance Leader Welt could be discovered.
Glancing at the brown-haired man struggling with a bottle of Lafite beside him, Raiden Ryoma felt a sense of relief... Wait, Lafite?
Looking at the wine glasses placed in front of Siegfried and Welt, and then at the steaming teapot in front of him, Raiden Ryoma's eyes darkened.
Completely unaware that the entrepreneur's anger was building, Siegfried swirled the bright red liquid in his glass, took a small sip, and then spoke, "Speaking of which, I met a very outstanding young man before I came here."
Being caught and locked in a dark room was bad enough; he couldn't be bothered to recount his unfortunate experiences.
"Is that so?" Taking a sip of the premium green tea provided by the World Serpent, Raiden Ryoma's eyes flashed with a glint of light. "Coincidentally, Alliance Leader Welt also mentioned a very outstanding young man before."
As a father himself, he immediately sensed Siegfried's boastful nature.
Welt: "..."
He suddenly had a bad feeling.
"Haha, that kid told me that even if it means going against the whole world, he would protect Kiana."
Siegfried looked proud.
Although Shi Hen himself never said such a thing, Siegfried always knew how to extract the essence of what the other person said.
"For Mei, that boy gave up his position as a major general in the Anti-Entropy headquarters and led her to escape from Cocolia's encirclement."
Raiden Ryoma's tone was also full of pride.
Even if the order in which things unfold is slightly different, their essence remains the same.
"In order to stay by Kiana's side, even in a place like St. Freya, that child worked hard to pass the Valkyrie test."
Siegfried continued.
"Although his specialty is mecha piloting, that boy enrolled at St. Freya along with Mei..."
As he spoke, the Raiden Ryoma paused.
They exchanged a glance and realized that the people they were talking about seemed to overlap a bit too much in some ways.
"Leader! Didn't you say that the boy named Shi Hen and Mei had a very close relationship?!"
Seeing Welt trying to sneak away, Raiden Ryoma frowned and asked.
"This..."
Welt scratched his cheek, racking his brains for words to try and argue his point.
"What do you mean by 'close relationship with Mei'? Isn't that child Kiana's boyfriend!?"
Siegfried also shouted.
"If I said they were just friends, would you believe me?"
As the only one who knew the truth, Welt was now drenched in sweat.
Although what Siegfried and Raiden Ryoma said was true, after spending so much time in St. Freya, he had indeed never seen the boy have any relationship with anyone that went beyond friendship.
"... Leader, I need an explanation."
Picking up the fine steel katana beside him, Raiden Ryoma spoke earnestly.
He was so pleased with himself for so long, and now you're telling me it was all a lie?!
"Yes, I'd love to know the truth too, Welt ~"
Siegfried chuckled as he downed the remaining half-bottle of Lafite in one gulp, holding the bottle.
He's already entrusted Kiana to someone else, and now you're saying it's a misunderstanding!?
"..."
Looking at the figures of the two muscular men, Welt couldn't help but swallow.
He felt he was bearing responsibilities that were not his.
Chapter 242 The Welt's spirit Will Endure Anti-Entropy Reversal
Anti-Entropy Headquarters.
After another round of online factional meetings, Cocolia collapsed wearily into her office chair, her chest heaving with each breath, her heart filled with guilt.
The summit battle that took place in Singapore, although Anti-Entropy was not among the participants... oh wait, if we consider Welt White as a member of Anti-Entropy, it could indeed be called a decisive battle for the three major organizations.
Without the knowledge of the Anti-Entropy Alliance, the Anti-Entropy Leader, the S-rank Valkyrie of Schicksal, and the Serpent Organization executives participated in this ranking competition.
The result was obvious: the Anti-Entropy Leader, relying on the rumored power of the Sovereign and the Kaslana family heirloom, successfully defeated the other two organizations, thus solidifying his unshakeable dominance.
Although the battle itself has ended, the impact of the event continues to grow and spread over time.
At yesterday's Anti-Entropy Executor Conference, nearly half of the executors' proposals were related to Welt White, the Anti-Entropy Leader.
Some were requesting that Welt White attend at least one monthly meeting, some were proposing to increase the annual salary of the Anti-Entropy Leader, and some were hoping that the Anti-Entropy Leader would send someone to inspect their territory... She could hear the scheming behind their backs even through the internet.
When [Welt White] was only equivalent to Schicksal S-rank Valkyrie, the Enforcers could still treat her as a tiger's skin, something to be used when necessary.
After this battle, many Anti-Entropy enforcers wished they could worship their leader and pray to him five times a day.
In everyone's mind, [Welt White] has transcended the category of S-rank Valkyrie Schicksal Herrscher, reaching a new and unattainable height.
That was a realm where one person could dominate the world, almost like a true god.
Unfortunately, no matter how much these enforcers hoped for the protection of the Anti-Entropy Leader, [Welt White] himself never appeared, as if he had completely forgotten his identity as the Anti-Entropy Leader.
With the suppression of [Welt White] gone, the enforcers turned their attention to Cocolia.
After all, theoretically speaking, she is the most likely executor to have the ability to contact [Welt White].
For a time, Cocolia also felt the pressure that Einstein back then.
At the executive meeting, people were somewhat restrained due to their different factions.
However, during the internal meetings of the radical faction, some of the executors went completely off the rails, even threatening to elect a new faction leader if Cocolia could not contact Welt White.
At this point, the relative strength of the executors is no longer important; only those who can cling to [Welt White]'s coattails can truly secure their high positions.
[Welt White] This second-generation leader, who only accepted the position of leader and then disappeared, has become the only sun of the Anti-Entropy Alliance, and no one can shake his position.
Honestly, Cocolia got to where she is today entirely through her own hard work. What does that bastard have to do with it?!
Thinking of Welt White's arrogant and domineering appearance, Cocolia n't help but grit her teeth and curse inwardly.
She has worked her way up to where she is today, step by step.
But in some people's eyes, she became a prime example of timely currying favor with powerful figures, and countless people wanted to replace her.
Cocolia was thinking, a knock suddenly sounded at the door:
Bang! Bang!
"Please..."
As soon as Cocolia opened her mouth, the office door suddenly opened, and a white-haired man wearing White Masks walked in leisurely.
"Long time no see, Lord Cocolia ~"
Speaking in a hoarse voice, Shi Hen walked unhurriedly to the Siberia Iron-Blooded Iron-Fisted Warlord, pulled over a chair and sat down by himself.
"[Welt White]!"
With her eyes wide open, Cocolia jumped to her feet.
"Um?"
Shi Hen glanced over indifferently.
"... Alliance Leader." Cocolia said through gritted teeth, somewhat unwillingly, and slowly sat down. "I was unaware of your presence, Alliance Leader. I have failed to greet you properly."
As she spoke, the Iron-Blooded Iron-Fisted Warlord's expression visibly became respectful.
Cocolia knew the importance of knowing when to bow her head.
"No need, you know I don't care about these things."
Raising a hand and waving it, Shi Hen said casually.
Cocolia: "..."
Who was it that was so particular about even a form of address just now?
While inwardly complaining, Cocolia maintained a very proper demeanor. "Lord Alliance Leader, is there anything you need me to do for you?"
Although when she put Welt White in the position of leader, he had made an agreement with her that she would not interfere in the affairs of the alliance.
However, times have changed, and the era has completely transformed.
From this moment on, the future belongs to the Anti-Entropy Leader.
"I heard that a few guys claiming to be Welt appeared recently?"
Shihen tapped his fingers on the armrest of the chair Shi Hen calmly.
"..."
In an instant, Cocolia's mind went blank as if struck by lightning, and cold sweat poured down her forehead.
A month ago, she thought that with the Welt series clones around, she might be able to challenge for the throne of the leader.
But now... she just thinks those clones are complete idiots.
It would be one thing if he died, but he also had to drag her down with him?
"Lord Alliance Leader, all of this is because..."
Cocolia tried to struggle.
"Since you want Welt's power so much, why don't you ask me?"
Without giving the other party a chance to explain, Shi Hen smiled and threw out a palm-sized metal box.
"What's this?"
Looking at the silver box that had rolled around on the desk a few times before landing in front of her, Cocolia n't help but ask.
Shi Hen simply sat back in his chair with his legs crossed, remaining silent.
As the Anti-Entropy Leader, he doesn't need to explain himself to anyone.
With her doubts growing stronger, Cocolia had no choice but to pick up the box and open it.
Beep—
In Setsuna, the Honkai Energy detector in the office went off, and Cocolia's breathing suddenly became difficult.
This is not only due to the rapidly rising concentration of Honkai Energy in the air, but also because of the items stored in the box.
It was a silver-gray, prismatic gemstone with a slightly crystalline texture.
"The core of the Herrscher of Reason is yours from now on."
