The Youngster Argues His Way Out of the Shura; Otto Sees God and Understands the Truth

Shi Hen and Kiana finally returned to Anti-Entropy, only Theresa remained in the laboratory.

"Aunt Flo?"

Seeing this, Kiana instinctively hid behind the boy, licked her lips with her tongue, and blushed slightly.

Although it wasn't as long as Mei, she had still been intimate with the boy for quite a while, so she naturally felt shy when she saw Theresa now, afraid that the other party would notice something was amiss.

Kiana, you...

Noticing the girl's actions and glancing at the boy's obviously swollen lips, Theresa instantly understood everything, her eyes filled with resentment. "You two should be more discreet in the future and pay attention to the time and place."

Even though Kiana's relationship with the boy has never been a secret, she has been waiting here for almost half an hour!

If it weren't for the fact that their clothes were relatively intact and there were no suspicious marks, she would have almost suspected that the other party was throwing a party at the Domination Theater.

"It's all Mei..."

Upon hearing this, Kiana's lips immediately pursed.

During that rather long stay, she mostly listened to the boy and Mei's activities, only briefly engaging in a one-night stand with the boy at the very end.

"I've told you so many times, if you make a mistake, you have to admit it properly, and don't push everything onto other people."

Seeing Kiana in this state, Theresa's passive ability as the headmistress was immediately triggered.

Back when she was still at St. Freya, she had caught Kiana skipping class many times, and she was more familiar with the ways girls made excuses than the white-haired girl herself.

"..."

Hearing this, Kiana felt even more aggrieved and quickly pinched the boy's lower back. "Hen, come and explain to Auntie that Mei was the one who was delayed earlier?"

If she really did it, then it's fine if she agrees to it.

But why should Mei enjoy the happiness, yet she still have to take the blame?

"Ha ha..."

Feeling the intense gaze of the girl behind him, Shi Hen gave an awkward smile and then changed the subject, "Headmistress, how are the puppet hosts of those Herrscher of Domination doing?"

Although the Herrscher of Domination didn't spend much effort on terrorist attacks, Schicksal and Anti-Entropy still found many puppet hosts like Angie and took them in for care.

After all, it has been proven that the Herrscher of Domination is capable of influencing these puppet hosts.

Allowing the puppet hosts to act freely is not only irresponsible towards their lives and safety, but also does not meet the needs of Anti-Honkai and the Herrscher of Domination.

"Those people have all returned to normal, and Angie from Queenstown has also woken up from her coma. It's just that everyone has lost their memories of when they were parasitized by the Herrscher of Domination."

Seeing that the young man had brought up serious matters, Theresa's expression immediately became more serious.

"That's good, it's a blessing in disguise."

Upon receiving this answer, Shi Hen breathed a sigh of relief at just the right moment.

For ordinary people, once they are involved with the Honkai, the mortality rate will be terrifyingly high.

Not to mention, these people are directly related to the Herrscher.

"Yes, even Einstein and the others found it somewhat unbelievable."

With a soft sigh, Theresa, who also understood the situation, still couldn't help but show some surprise on her face.

When Anti-Entropy took in those puppet hosts, it was already prepared to accept sacrifices.

After all, even if they exhaust all means, it is difficult to completely eradicate the manipulation of these hosts by the Herrscher of Domination in the face of the Herrscher of Domination's authority.

"This is the meaning of our hard work and fighting."

Kiana spoke in a serious tone, a slightly mature smile appearing on her face.

"Um..."

Nodding with relief, Theresa looked around and then noticed someone's absence. "Didn't Mei come along?"

Keep in mind that even Durandal is currently resting against Anti-Entropy and is not in a hurry to return to Schicksal.

"Hmm..."

Kiana immediately shrank back when she met Theresa's questioning gaze.

Even though everyone already understood many things implicitly, she was too embarrassed to say aloud what Domination Theater.

"Perhaps Mei has other tasks to complete."

Feeling the white-haired girl's fingers urging him on his waist again, Shi Hen smiled helplessly and explained.

"Sigh, Mei..."

Believing the boy's words to be true, Theresa immediately sighed deeply, "Shi Hen, although it's a bit inappropriate for me to say this, you can't let Mei down."

Mei carries so much on her shoulders for us and for this world.

As she spoke, Theresa's gaze towards the two people in front of her became complicated.

If she had followed her previous ideas, she would have prioritized letting the boy choose Kiana and cut off all contact with the other girls.

After all, she was a Pure Love War God!

But Mei had studied at St. Freya for three years, so she could be considered someone Freya had watched grow up. Theresa could not be so heartless.

The only thing that comforted her was that Kiana and Mei didn't seem to reject each other and wouldn't escalate the situation to the point of fighting each other over this.

I don't know how the boy did it, or does he really have such great charm?

Feeling puzzled and shocked, and thinking of Wendy and the others still watching her intently, Theresa felt increasingly conflicted.

Even if Kiana can accept Mei, what will happen if Wendy and the others are also exposed...?

Just imagining the horrific scene made Theresa shudder, her back instantly covered in cold sweat.

She had a feeling for no reason that if this matter wasn't handled properly, even if humanity were to defeat the Honkai in the future, there was a high probability that they would perish in the civil war among the Herrscher.

"..."

It's unclear what thoughts flashed through Theresa's mind, but Shi Hen simply gave the older Nun a deep look, his heart filled with helplessness.

If it weren't for Raven and Theresa, these brilliant and cunning individuals, stabbing him in the back, he wouldn't have faced this kind of Shura field at all.

Playing around is fine, but don't joke about his professional ethics as a Behind-the-Scenes Boss.

Taking this as an example, apart from Fu Hua and Schariac who were limited by environmental factors, everyone else achieved the growth they deserved and completed a collective version update.

In fact, if the Finality hadn't yet arrived, he suspected that Mei could have directly ascended again to the level of the Herrscher of Truth.

In terms of willpower alone, Mei has undoubtedly met that standard by being able to completely break free from the influence of the Herrscher of Domination.

Unfortunately, the Herrscher's re-ascension involves the authority of the Cocoon of Finality, which cannot be accomplished by an individual alone.

In other words, the current version does not support the appearance of such an awesome Herrscher.

"Hehe! Leave this to me!"

Even if it's the World Serpent, I will defeat Welt White and Kevin, and bring Mei back!

Unsure of what the boy was thinking either, Kiana immediately patted her chest and confidently declared.

Mei as her closest friend, and even though Mei betrayed her when they were young, Kiana cannot treat Mei coldly.

Theresa: "..."

Do you want to listen to what you're saying?

While it's true that she demanded a happy ending for Mei, you, as a girl, need to stand up for yourself!

At the very least, they should fight for the position of the main wife, right?

Judging from Kiana's current attitude, she felt that even if Mei asked her to buy some small toys, this silly girl would happily pay for them herself.

In short, this child is completely beyond saving.

"Ahem~ It's getting late, I'll take you back to your dorms first."

Clearing his throat, Shi Hen quickly changed the subject.

He felt he was doomed if he continued talking about this kind of thing.

"Shi Hen, it's not appropriate for me to interfere too much in matters between you young people."

Therefore, I have only one request—no matter what, Kiana must not be sad!

With that, Theresa took a deep breath, a heavy pressure that seemed out of place on her youthful face. "Otherwise, neither Judah nor I will let you off easily!"

"..."

Seeing the Nun's appearance, Kiana was taken aback for a moment, then smiled and waved her hand, "Don't worry, Auntie, Hen isn't that kind of person."

She was immature before and Mei broke into her house, but she's completely different now!

They've always been extremely wary of Anna; surely she won't keep losing!

"I'm willing to pay with my life if it makes Kiana sad."

Shi Hen answered this in an extremely serious tone.

After all, he has the Revival Armor.

"Don't say that, Hen!"

Upon hearing this, Kiana quickly covered the boy's mouth and retorted with a stern face, "If something really happens to you, I'll be the one who's truly heartbroken."

Theresa: "..."

She felt that her advice had been completely wasted.

In fact, she felt like an outsider in front of these two people.

Meanwhile, as Theresa falls into self-doubt, Otto also faces his pivotal day in the already shattered Domination Theater.

"Hehehe, this is truly terrifying, the power of Herrscher."

Strolling through the Domination Theater, where not a single large piece of architectural debris remained, Otto's face showed a hint of surprise as he slowly turned his gaze to a white-haired man standing high above. "I'm getting more and more curious about your purpose, Bishop."

By repeatedly pushing Kiana and the others to become stronger, isn't this guy really afraid of going too far?

"That's none of your business, Otto."

A venomous snake that only lies dormant in the dark depths of the earth will never know the vastness of the sky.

Glancing down at Otto, Shi Hen said coldly, making no attempt to hide his contempt for the former Bishop.

"Yes, yes, Your Bishop Sir is right."

With a smile, Otto agreed, showing no anger whatsoever, but rather extreme humility. "Then, could this despicable and shameless viper possibly gain the favor of His Bishop Sir?"

As he spoke, Otto placed one hand on his chest and bowed deeply, a sharp glint flashing in his emerald eyes.

He has never been stingy with any price when it comes to the hope of reviving Kallen, let alone just a little face.

"..."

Upon hearing Otto's words, Shi Hen flipped his hand and tossed a brilliant golden rhombus-shaped crystal to the other party, "The core of the Herrscher of Domination is enough for you to establish a connection with the Will of Honkai and obtain what you want."

Of course, this is on the premise that He is willing to make a deal with you.

"Thank you very much, Your Bishop Sir."

As he caught the core, Otto's tone became more sincere, "I wonder if Your Bishop Sir has anything else you need my help with?"

As he spoke, Otto looked up at the white-haired man in front of him, a hint of mockery in his eyes.

Accustomed to transactions and fraud, he did not believe that Welt White's help would be free.

"Every gift of fate comes with a price tag attached."

You'll know the consequences when the time comes.

Meeting Otto's earnest gaze, Shi Hen spoke calmly, his tone devoid of any extra fluctuation.

"That's something to look forward to!"

Upon hearing this, Otto couldn't help but laugh.

He felt that Welt White was being far too arrogant.
