I'm sure I'll have a good dream tonight.

As the night flowed by, the faint chirping of insects drifted gently through the air.

Chapter 175 The Boy and Otto's Dominant Life

On the other side, as people in the real world gradually returned to peace, the Domination Theater also welcomed its own performance.

"Disgrace! This is a blatant humiliation!"

What does that Void Herrscher think the Domination Theater is?

They come and go as they please. They don't take us Herrscher of Domination seriously at all!

On the central stage, a Domination Puppet is speaking eloquently, angrily rebuking a certain white-haired girl for arbitrarily entering and leaving the Domination Theater.

"That's right! We should retaliate immediately and show those traitors what we're capable of!"

In the audience, Domination Puppet loudly echoed the sentiment.

"Come on, we're just a bunch of losers, what can we possibly do?"

Even if that Void Herrscher used her powers right under our noses, we still couldn't do anything, could we?

One of the dolls said dejectedly, exuding an aura of utter despondency.

Even though the Herrscher Authority of Wind power was taken from Kiana, the Herrscher of Domination was still helpless against the other two powers possessed by the girl.

After all, even though her compatibility with the Desire Gem is not high, Kiana's control over the Authority of the Void and the Authority of Flame is almost perfect, no less than that of a true Herrscher of the Void.

At this stage, the Herrscher of Domination can only bully Bronya; they cannot yet take action against Herrscher who has fully mastered their own power.

What do you mean by this!?

Are we just supposed to stand by and watch ourselves be bullied by those traitors, and do nothing about it?

Upon hearing the frustrated doll's words, the Domination Puppet immediately stood up and shouted angrily.

"I didn't say I wouldn't do anything, it's just that we need to think things through carefully, think things through carefully..."

The angry doll roared at the dejected doll, which immediately became weak and subdued.

"Take it easy? I think you just want to surrender!"

The angry doll continued to shout.

"Since you're so capable, then come up with a plan!"

One of the puppets, unable to bear it any longer, stood up and shouted.

"You..."

Faced with this question, the angry doll was speechless for a moment, then roared even louder, "You bastard! If you want to fight, just say so, no need to beat around the bush!"

If it could come up with a solution, it would have been standing in the center of the stage presiding over the meeting long ago, instead of being in the audience.

"Ha! All you can do is rage against us in your incompetence. If you're so capable, go find that Void Herrscher!"

The first puppet said in a cold voice.

"You bastard!"

As if it could no longer bear the humiliation, the angry doll directly used its fists.

Bang!

With one punch, the two puppets immediately started fighting, creating complete chaos in the audience.

As the war began, more puppets started shouting:

"Great! Well done! Quickly cut into their mid lane!"

"Don't listen to that guy, we should switch to the bottom lane now!"

"Stop! Stop it! Don't fight anymore!"

"Exactly! How can you kill someone this way? You should use your powers directly!"

In an instant, words of encouragement and dissuasion rose and fell, making the already chaotic scene even more chaotic.

Controlling his puppet to stand a little distance from the riot, Shi Hen he watched this scene.

As expected, the Herrscher of Domination are just a bunch of rabble.

How can he possibly make the Honkai great again while he's surrounded by these insects?!

"What a pathetic bunch..."

What do you think, No. 74?

With a soft sigh, Shi Hen looked at a puppet beside him who was also silently observing the theater.

Although everyone's appearance was forcibly standardized into the shape of a puppet due to the rules Domination Theater, he could still recognize the puppet's true face through the golden threads behind it.

Without a doubt, the other party was none other than his senior from Schicksal — Bishop Otto.

Like him, Otto had also infiltrated the Herrscher of Domination early on, and his position was quite high.

Keep in mind, he's only No. 404.

"It seems you have a different opinion, No. 404."

Otto cautiously refrained from commenting when faced with the new member who suddenly struck up a conversation.

Even though it's normal for a few mavericks to occasionally emerge due to the sheer number of Herrscher of Domination, he still keenly sensed an approaching danger.

"I'd really like to hear your opinion first, No. 74."

If it were you, how would you defeat the Void Herrscher?

Shi Hen asked with a smile.

"..."

Looking at the Domination Puppet staring straight at him, Otto's eyes flashed with a sharp light. After a long while, he slowly said, "If it were me, I would choose to avoid the situation and attack the puppet."

Our current strength is insufficient to contend with the Void Herrscher, so our immediate priority is to find opportunities to isolate other Herrscher and seize their powers.

As he spoke, Otto couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

It has to be said that these Herrscher of Domination are really useless; they even managed to lose a game where they had a huge advantage last time.

Now that the target has been set on that young Anti-Entropy Leader, there should be no further changes.

But as soon as these guys saw the authority of the Herrscher of Wind right in front of them, they instantly forgot all their plans, which resulted in Kiana's punishment.

How could he... no, it seems he doesn't need to help the Herrscher of Domination when he's with these insects.

As a chess player, all he needs to do is quietly watch the Herrscher of Domination fail, and then try to acquire the core in exchange for the right to negotiate with the Honkai Consciousness again.

With over five hundred years of life experience and a thorough understanding of Kiana and the others, Otto was certain that the Herrscher of Domination could not stop those people from moving forward.

His only concern was that he didn't know what role Welt White would play in all of this.

After all, ever since the Third Honkai Outbreak, the other side has been involved in each Honkai to some extent.

Under the intervention of Welt White, almost every Herrscher chose to stand on the side of humanity, ultimately escaping the fate of being defeated and gaining the possibility of continuing to grow.

Although in many cases this was not the result of Welt White's personal involvement, the final outcome was always the same.

But will this kind of thing continue to happen again this time, for the Herrscher of Domination who Thousand Faces?

Or, to put it another way, does Welt White really want to subdue the Herrscher of Domination?

Looking at the still chaotic Domination Theater before him, Otto was deeply skeptical.

But when he thought about the man's past behavior, Otto's mood couldn't help but become heavy again.

Facing someone as terrifyingly powerful and incredibly agile as Welt White, even he couldn't help but feel drenched in sweat.

If I had known this would happen, I should have gone all out to completely eliminate them the moment they first appeared, and then we wouldn't have had so much trouble.

Thinking of this, Otto couldn't help but sigh deeply.

"Indeed, you are quite different from those insects, No. 74."

Unable to guess what Otto would think of him, Shi Hen deeply agreed with the former Schicksal Bishop's ideas and strategies.

Although among the existing Herrscher, the Herrscher of Domination can only bully Seele and Bronya, it is still a viable strategy.

"This is simply an obvious fact."

Otto was quite modest in the face of his new colleagues' praise.

"However, in today's world, there exists a prey that is even easier to catch than those of other Herrscher..."

Patting the Otto doll on the shoulder, Shi Hen sighed regretfully, with an expression that said, "You're still too young."

"..."

Otto glanced at the hand resting on his shoulder and struggled to resist the urge to slap it away. "Oh? What do you mean?"

Otto asked politely, but a faint arrogance shone through his eyes hidden by a black eyepatch.

As a bishop who had ruled the Schicksal for five hundred years, he did not believe that the Domination Puppet in front of him could have a better eye than he did.

"That's of course..."

With a soft chuckle, Shi Hen lifted one foot and placed it on the table in front of him. "Everyone, please be quiet!"

Shi Hen Shihen spoke loudly, his voice carried far through the theater, instantly attracting the attention of most of the puppets and even bringing the chaos nearby to a standstill.

"It's just one defeat, and you're already fighting amongst yourselves like this? Do you even have the demeanor expected of Herrscher?!"

He spoke in a cold voice, Shi Hen gaze sweeping over the group of puppets through his blindfold. His voice, though not loud, naturally exuded the authority of a superior.

"Huh? What should it be like to be Herrscher?"

"I can't Domination Puppet is doing this," the puppet asked, still confused.

Shi Hen: "..."

How on earth did this guy become Herrscher of Domination?

"Yeah, yeah! This is the first time anyone has been Herrscher, how do you know what Herrscher should do?"

Some of the puppets immediately chimed in.

I know!

We should first find what we truly want to protect; only then can we truly become strong!

A wise puppet raised its hand and spoke, while simultaneously pushing up its blindfold with its other hand, a fleeting golden light flashing in its eyes.

"Come on!"

We are the Herrscher of Domination, the aggregate of negative human emotions, a group of losers who have lost their faith.

"You talk about becoming stronger to protect others, but do you even possess that quality yourself?"

The calm doll said with a disdainful look.

"That seems to be true..."

Upon hearing this, the wise puppet scratched the back of his head and smiled helplessly.

"Quiet!"

Seeing that the topic was starting to stray further and further off track, Shi Hen quickly stopped him, saying, "In this world, the world is divided into three."

Kevin has returned to the world of the World Serpent, possessing unparalleled power.

Schicksal also has [Welt White] and Durandal, who are not people we can easily provoke.

Although Anti-Entropy is a gathering place for those traitors, we have already alerted them, and it will certainly be difficult for us to achieve anything in the short term.

"Tch! Everyone knows what you're saying."

The key question is, what should we do now?

One of the puppets said dismissively.

"Gentlemen, have you forgotten?"

However, there is still one prey lurking outside these forces.

If we can capture him, our strength will increase rapidly, and defeating those traitors will be a piece of cake.
