Collapse: The opening system captures the Herrscher of Knowledge

A memory emerged: he was engrossed in researching a cure for the Black Death. Kallen stood quietly by, her eyes filled with emotion, genuinely pleased that she hadn't made a mistake.

Otto was silent for a moment, whispered "thank you", and then changed the subject without leaving a trace, asking Kallen if she was still going to "take action" tonight.

Kallen nodded slightly, then waved her hand, signaling Otto to focus on his own business, saying that she was already familiar with the route and there was no need for him to worry.

The curtain of memories slowly fell, and Xukong Wanzang spoke with a puzzled look on his face:

"I really don't understand why you were so awkward back then. Wouldn't it be better to just tell her everything you thought? Maybe the whole history would be changed."

Upon hearing this, Otto felt that Xukong Wanzang's thoughts were too ridiculous and naive:

"Maybe, but what exactly did you want me to say to her at that time? That I was testing new drugs through human experiments?"

"Or do you want me to quote a political economics theory from hundreds of years ago to enlighten her that robbing the rich to help the poor doesn't solve the fundamental problem?"

"If it weren't for these things... even if I told her directly why I did all that—what good would it do?"

"Will she change herself because of this, or will I change myself because of this?"

Xukong Wanzang paused and said, "...But in fact, none of you changed the other."

Otto responded calmly:

"Of course. Because at that time, I wishfully believed that I would have more ways to secretly protect her."

Xukong Wanzang sneered:

"Oh, she's the most powerful Valkyrie in the Heavenly Destiny. How could you actually want to rely on your own strength to protect her back then?"

Otto looked calm:

"After all, my cognition at that time was that her abilities complemented mine, and I always wanted to secretly make up for her shortcomings in my own way."

Xukong Wanzang expressed his incomprehension:

"Strange. How could you, a frail and sickly person like you, think so highly of yourself in such matters?"]

Einstein: <Hmm... From the above conversation, we can infer that Otto is feeling proud and complacent because he thinks he can help Kallen with her intelligence.>

Bronya: "When Kiana is around Bronya, Bronya will also feel a strong sense of superiority in terms of intelligence."

Kiana: <...Bronya!!!>

Kallen: "So Otto thinks I'm stupid?"

[Mrs. Green Lily] Otto: "Absolutely not. I didn't do that. They're just making groundless assumptions. I reserve the right to pursue legal action! (I'll send a lawyer's letter of warning.)"

A glimmer of curiosity flashed in Kallen's eyes, and she asked softly: "Um, Otto, what do you think of me?"

Madam Green Lily's eyes softened instantly, and Otto spoke in a sincere tone, slowly saying, "Innocent, kind, brave... these words are not enough to describe you, Kallen."

[Madam Green Lily] Otto couldn't help but unfold the rhythm of poetry and recited with deep emotion: "Karen, in my eyes, you are like the purest moonlight in the night sky, shedding the truest and kindest light of human nature, untainted by the dust of the world."

That touch of kindness and sincerity is like a clear mountain stream, gurgling and flowing, nourishing every moment.

Your courage to pursue justice and fairness is like a sharp sword, cutting through the unknown darkness.

Even if the road ahead is full of thorns and dangers, you can still stride forward with your head held high and never retreat.

To me, you are the brightest treasure in my life, the lighthouse that never goes out in the dark ocean.

In the confusing waves, light up the path ahead for me and lead me to the bright shore.

Ah~ Praise Kallen! 〉

(The pure beauty next door silently gave a thumbs up)

Kallen covered her already red face and hurriedly stopped Otto from continuing: "...Okay, I get it, stop talking."

【Magical Girl】Theresa: 〈As expected of a grandpa!〉

Alicia: "What a romantic tribute, huh~?"

Xiaozhi: "Otto, did you secretly go online? Otherwise, why would you say such a long and cheesy thing in such a short time!"

Fu Ming: "Don't worry about it, just follow me: Ah~ praise Kallen!"

Kallen: "Mr. Fu Ming, how come even you..."

Yaezakura: <Ah~ Praise Kallen!>

Everyone: "Ah~ Praise Kallen!"

Kallen: "Why is everyone like this?"

Fu Ming: “Ah hey~”

Xukong Wanzang continued, "History has proven that you were actually unable to do anything back then."

Fu Ming couldn't help but take a breath, then said half-jokingly:

"The password and account are correct, but unfortunately yours is a potato server. It's stuck for five hundred years and you have to figure out how to log in successfully."

[Mrs. Green Lily] Otto remained silent, expressing his current state only with "......".

Kiana said thoughtfully: "Hiss, could it be that 'I can't do anything' is the password for becoming stronger?"

Xiaozhi quickly agreed: "You're right, this is indeed the password to become stronger. Mei☆ knows it very well. She shouted it the most times. And I said the wrong password back then, which is why I lost in the duel with Kiana☆!"

Mei☆：〈......〉

[Shenzhou Tablet] Fu Hua smiled fondly: "...So you attribute your inability to defeat Kiana☆ to that phrase 'I can do anything'?"

Xiaozhi put his hands on his hips, looking unconvinced: "Isn't it?"

In the live broadcast room, Kiana☆ rolled her eyes helplessly, too lazy to refute Xiaoshi's inexplicable persistence.

[Void Wanzang: "You have even accelerated her break from her original living environment - and the price, in the end, is her life."

Under the venomous tongue of Void Wanzang, our Bishop Otto seemed to be about to break, and his calm voice was filled with loneliness and sadness:

"...Yes. That day she finally discovered the true dark side of destiny. The trajectory of our lives has since spiraled out of control."

Otto continued to move forward, and the following memory was the most foolish judgment in his life, and it was also a tragedy that he tried to redeem throughout his life.

When the recollection ended, Xukong Wanzang said with a hint of envy and jealousy:

"You know, Otto...I get really jealous of your sister sometimes."

Xukong Wanzang said excitedly:

"I meticulously set up so many traps for you, big and small, and you never fell into them—but she only handed you a shovel. How could you dig a grave for yourself?"

......

After a conversation, Otto and Xukong Wanzang were both silenced by each other and could only continue walking forward.

Xukong Wanzang: "Tsk, so everything is my fault? Is this the real reason why you've bound me for over five hundred years?"

[Madame Green Lily] Otto: "Oh... who knows? Anyway, everything is over, isn't it? My Kallen has been resurrected, but you, my friend, will continue to be bound by me."

Void Manzang: <Otto, you idiot—————>

Kallen: "So it was you who released the Honkai Beast that day, Otto? How could you sacrifice the lives of other innocent people?!"
