"This is starting to look more and more like a harem drama." Schrödinger's expression was strange. A naive female lead and a tsundere second female lead—following the typical anime formula, won't they both fall for Joyce, and then...?

Schrödinger shook his head vigorously.

……

"Dr. Tesla is so cute~" Alicia sat in the Golden Garden, her eyes shining.

Today, Qianjie was invited to a villa to cook a lavish meal for a powerful and wealthy family.

So today, the important task of cooking was handed over to Mei's... best friend Blanca.

Mei was intently watching Blanca chop vegetables in the kitchen, her little notebook in hand.

Blanca was particularly uncomfortable with Mei's intense gaze fixed on the cutting board. She couldn't understand why someone would watch someone chopping vegetables so intently.

“Mei, you…” Blanca skillfully cut the washed cucumber into strips.

“Blanca, don’t worry about me, just continue,” May said earnestly.

Blanca felt like crying but had no tears left to shed.

After leaving the National Museum, Einstein comforted the dejected Joyce in the car. When they returned to the familiar Imperial Institute, in Laboratory 42, his suitcase was left lying around.

"She went to the bar, just as I suspected. Ignore her." Einstein knew where Tesla was just by not seeing her.

Einstein told Joyce to follow him and head down the right-hand corridor, an area Walter Joyce forbade from entering. The moment the door opened, Joyce had no idea what he was about to face.

A faint, ethereal pink glow, like the heart of some illusory creature, beats slowly. In the background, rows of devices resembling telephone exchanges emit annoying electronic buzzing, and countless indicator lights flicker on and off in the darkness.

"Good afternoon, Aida," Einstein called out to the unfamiliar name into the empty room.

"Good afternoon, Dr. Einstein." The pink fluorescent light gradually formed a blurry human shape in Joyce's eyes. "Ah, Assistant, good afternoon too."

Aida introduced herself to Joyce.

"What a brilliant tech geek who saves the world!"

"Is this really the timeline of 1959? How come there are even virtual images and computer simulators?"

"It's already broken, what else is there to explain?"

Xilin's live stream.

"Sirin, Kiana, I've come to bring you afternoon tea."

Kiana's eyes lit up when she heard the familiar voice.

"It's Mei's voice!" Kiana recognized Mei's voice immediately and rushed out, forgetting about the live stream.

"It's the real Mei! I want to see Mei too!"

["Mea Yi! Mei Yi! Mei Yi!"]

"Queen Mei stepped on me!"

Kiana was carrying a plate of delicate pastries.

"Kiana, they want to see Mei," Sirin nudged Kiana with her elbow, adding fuel to the fire.

"Huh? You want to see Mei?" Kiana looked confused, but quickly realized what she meant and put her hands on her hips: "No way, Mei is mine, you're not allowed to covet her!"

"I'm totally shipping them! I'm totally shipping them!"

"Qiya Party is number one!"

Why am I shipping Otto and Fu Hua?

"Aren't you a pure heretic?"

Entropy North America Headquarters.

Joyce only then realized who Aida was. It turned out she was just a high-tech computing AI; no wonder she had no real-world prototype.

Aida extracted two images from the Soul Steel data. In a place similar to the Yellowstone Ruins, a black-haired older sister appeared, dressed as an ancient Valkyrie, covered in blood.

The older sister who appeared was "H·A".

In the footage she left behind, she even mentioned destiny and Otto Apocalypse.

Perhaps to test whoever saw the information, she blocked the rest of the footage.

This meant that Aida needed about four weeks to fully analyze the encrypted information left behind, during which time she could not conduct any other research.

“Walter?” Einstein took a deep breath and suddenly moved closer.

"Uh...yes." Joyce, who had been struggling to keep up with the pace since earlier, took a step back in fright.

To his surprise, the girl revealed a wicked smile.

"I'm counting on you for this period of time. Please take good care of yourself."

“Otto?” Edison frowned. “How long did he actually live in the story?”

"Can people really live that long?" Schrödinger also had this question in his mind.

"What if he's no longer human?" Tesla harbored a great deal of resentment towards Otto.

“It’s not impossible; he may have already transformed himself into a robot,” Einstein joked.

"Isn't it?"

Chapter 143 Einstein's Jealousy

Another week has passed, and it's the weekend again.

Ya Qing was pulled by Mebius to sit obediently on the sofa. He realized that Mebius wasn't actually interested in web series; what she was interested in was watching them together.

"So sweet~~~" Alicia covered her soft, chubby cheeks.

"Tch." Kevin scoffed, picked up a toothpick, poked some cut fruit on it, and affectionately prepared to feed it to Mei: "Mei, open your mouth, ah~"

Mei didn't speak immediately, but looked at Kevin strangely.

Sue looked at Kevin with a suppressed laugh.

Even though they've been together for so long, Kevin still tries to act like they were when they first got together, which gives Mei goosebumps. Apart from not being legally married, they're practically an old married couple.

"hehe."

Mebius did the same thing as Kevin, but the results were different. Yaqing obediently ate it.

The stark contrast made me unable to hold back any longer.

"Hahahahaha..."

Amidst laughter and cheers, the web series began.

Because the supercomputer in Lab 42 was occupied, Joyce was going to arrange entertainment for the two doctors for the next four weeks. While thinking about it, he suddenly remembered the letter he had just received.

Otto, dressed like a vampire count, appears in the scene, and the letter slowly unfolds.

In the letter, the other party once again mentioned the story of Saint Kallen, who was as fragile as a mortal, so much so that ordinary people could sentence her to death, and that mere Honkai Beasts could take her life.

The other person was like a fanatical seeker of truth, wanting to eradicate fear from people's hearts. Once the fear of "I am vulnerable" is pulled from the heart, a new world will be born...

"In such a world, there will be a saint who will protect her."

"A world like this is all the more worthy of the saintess's protection."

At the end of the letter, the recipient admitted that he might have drunk too much red wine today because he hadn't had any in a long time, which was why he was somewhat incoherent.

Written by: Alpha the Clown.

"Saint Karen? I remember Otto's pursuit was to resurrect his loved ones, even at the cost of confronting the gods." May ignored Kevin's fawning, leaving Kevin feeling quite dejected.

“Otto himself is a complex contradiction; his crimes are countless, but his achievements will endure forever,” Yaqing said. “He is not purely evil, nor is he purely good.”

"Is this the Otto you wanted to create?" Mebius asked curiously. She wanted to understand Yaqing and the characters he created.

“He doesn’t need my shaping; he is who he is.” As if she had thought of something, Ya Qing glanced at Kevin almost imperceptibly and smiled slightly: “Fools envy heroes, while heroes envy fools; this is the requiem of the broken.”

“Hmm…I don’t understand.” Alicia shook her head.

"So, is your role the fool or the hero?" Mei's eyes flashed with a sharp light, as if she wanted to get Ya Qing to say something.

"My role..." Ya Qing instantly realized, "is just an ordinary person."

The interaction between Tesla and Joyce, who were both drunk, was brought to an end by Einstein.

During the next four weeks of free time, Joyce accompanied Tesla and Einstein to Highgate Cemetery, the cemetery where many great people are buried.

Joyce enjoyed the moment of peace, and when he looked back, a familiar figure stood at the corner ahead.

"Oh, what a coincidence." The blonde woman was one of the chosen ones she had met at the airport last month. She wasn't wearing a black women's suit now, but a white and blue dress.

"That... that..."

"Don't be nervous, my name is Reanna Brigantia."

Leanna noticed Joyce's nervousness, smiled slightly, and told him that although she was the Valkyrie of Destiny, she was just an ordinary person like him, here to sweep the curtain.

"No... um... visiting graves and stuff..."

"?" Leanna tilted her head, looking puzzled.

"I...I actually came here to feed someone's cats."
