Starting from the Collapse World, I became the behind-the-scenes boss

As he pondered this, Otto glanced at the 404 Domination Doll in front of him, which still had its original skin, and a mocking smile appeared on his lips: "I never expected that I would be worth Lord [Walter White] targeting for so long. It's quite an honor."

Well, with each clash with the Herrscher of Domination, coupled with the failure of the hidden program in his Soul Steel body, he has been able to deduce the existence of the Key of Corruption.

And naturally, there is only one person left who can possess this divine key, exert such high efficiency, and harbor deep malice towards it.

"Mr. Otto, there's no need to be so modest. In terms of being repulsive, you're still very high on my list."

Nodding in the guise of a Herrscher of Domination, Shihen was not surprised by this.

Otto is Otto after all. If he still can't perceive the truth at this point, then he doesn't deserve the recognition of the Void Archives.

"Really? That's quite a surprise!"

With a light laugh, Otto feigned a perfectly timed look of surprise. "While I have indeed clashed with Lord Walter White a few times due to our differing stances, surely you wouldn't hold a grudge to this day?"

What if I said it was serious?

Shihen smiled and asked in return.

Otto: "..."

Can't this person have even a little bit of the magnanimity of a bishop of destiny?

"Sixty years ago, you plotted to kill my ex-ex-boyfriend, Walter Joyce, over some trivial matter."

They even took advantage of my weakness and repeatedly laid various blockades over the past sixty years to hinder my normal development.

Mr. Otto, who did all these things, doesn't seem to have a particularly broad mind, does he?

As if seeing through Otto's thoughts, Shihen asked with a smile.

"..."

Seeing the doll's ambiguous smile, Otto became even more silent.

No way, what kind of time is this? How dare you claim to be the rightful heir of Welt?

You were the one who personally scattered the ashes of the previous Herrscher of Reason, Welt Yang!

Besides, your current identity is that of the Archbishop of Destiny!

Otto's mind was in turmoil, but he maintained a polite and humble smile: "Yes, yes, Lord Walter White is right. I should indeed reflect on this."

Faced with a truly powerful figure capable of preventing him from reviving Kallen, he would not hesitate to swallow his pride even if it meant being humiliated, let alone simply bowing down and submitting.

But looking at Otto, who seemed so pragmatic, Shihen couldn't help but frown: "You should call me Bishop."

"..."

Otto, now in his original skin, visibly twitched his eyelids, and after a long while, he lowered his head slightly. "Yes, Your Excellency."

"good."

Hearing this, Shihen nodded slightly, a calm smile appearing on his face. "I am actually very happy that you are so willing to hand over your destiny and the position of bishop."

But I really dislike your habit of always resorting to underhanded tactics.

"..."

Upon hearing this, Otto felt a chill run down his spine and instantly understood the reason for the abnormal behavior of the Herrscher of Domination during this period.

After acquiring over three hundred Soul Steel bodies through repeated clashes with him, the Herrscher of Domination has already begun to possess the resources to rival Anti-Entropy and further seize more Herrscher authority.

However, after reaching this point, the Herrscher of Domination unusually set its sights on Schicksal and launched an attack on Schicksal without regard for its own casualties.

Moreover, quite coincidentally, all the Chosen Ones who died in these battles were pawns he had left in the church.

Previously, he couldn't quite understand the actions of the Herrscher of Domination, but now...

He was still filled with confusion.

"Does His Holiness the Bishop really care about these things?"

Otto asked with a smile, his expression extremely humble, only a faint glint of shrewdness in his eyes.

They're all people with the world in their sights, yet they still focus their attention on some lowly soldiers under their command. That's making a mountain out of a molehill.

Unless, of course, the other party has a compelling reason to do so!

"I don't like others coveting my things."

As if he had seen through Otto's guess, Shihen explained calmly.

"Is that so? Then I was the one who wasn't being pragmatic enough."

Otto said softly, a slight smile playing on his lips, clearly not believing the explanation.

If the other party truly cared about destiny as much as he claimed, then he wouldn't have set a record for the bishop with the lowest attendance rate in a thousand years.

"It's not too late for you to repent now."

Shihen said calmly.

Otto: "..."

He was just flattering me, and this guy actually took it seriously?

"Alright, enough chit-chat, Otto. I need you to do something for me."

Without offering much explanation for the Herrscher of Dominion's actions, Time Mark shifted the topic.

"Your Excellency, please give your instructions."

Otto bowed slightly as he spoke, as if he had completely placed himself in a subordinate position.

As long as he can achieve his goal, he has never cared about the attitude or methods used to learn more about [Walter White].

After all, he is a legendary bishop who can perfectly pull off cross-dressing and disguising himself as a child!

“Durandal will be coming here soon, and I need you to hold her off.”

With a casual remark, Shihen tossed a golden cube to Otto.

Although compared to the power gap between Otto and Durandal, a mere Void Treasury is utterly useless, it makes him appear more generous.

"..."

Otto accepted the Void Treasury without understanding why, still bewildered.

He's going to fight Durandal? [Walter White] Are you sure you're not making things difficult for him?

"For a legendary bishop who has ruled the destiny for five hundred years, this kind of thing should be easy to accomplish, right?"

Shihen added with a smile.

"..."

Otto's lips twitched slightly, and for a moment he almost wanted to flip the table and leave.

But holding the Void Treasury in his hand, Otto forcibly suppressed his inner emotions and asked with a smile, "I'm a little curious, for you, Bishop, stopping Durandal should be easier, right?"

"If that's the case, why go to all this trouble and make me come forward?"

He suspected that Walter White was deliberately targeting him, and he had evidence.

"I don't want Durandal to see me hanging out with the Honkai."

Shihen glanced intently at Otto and said meaningfully, "So, you know what to do."

Otto: "..."

No, is this person mentally ill?

If you just think about what you've done so far, you wouldn't think you have even the slightest positive image in Durandal's eyes.

Now that things have progressed to this point, you're suddenly concerned about your image?

Does this even make any sense?!

Otto, whose anger was about to explode, still maintained a humble smile and said, "This is truly unexpected. Your Excellency is so concerned about Durandal?"

"Because she is special."

Shihen nodded.

"..."

Hearing the doll's calm reply, Otto fell silent once again.

He was increasingly suspicious that the reason why Walter White had repeatedly shown Durandal special favor was simply because he harbored ill intentions towards the strongest Valkyrie.

The fact that the other party previously used the Herrscher of Domination to eliminate the pawns he left behind in Schicksal was also to allow Durandal to take over the organization more smoothly.

With that in mind, Otto had no interest in verifying this point.

Whatever feelings Walter White harbors for Durandal, it is irrelevant to his resurrection of Kallen.

The only thing that matters right now is figuring out the true nature of the Key of Corruption!

A glint of light flashed in Otto's eyes, and a smile returned to his face as he asked, "I have something else I'd like to ask Your Excellency the Bishop."

Now that the Key of Corrosion has been successfully forged, Yae Sakura should be meaningless to you, right?

Therefore, I hope to exchange this woman with His Holiness the Bishop.

Based on the World Serpent's consistent modus operandi, Otto believed he had a very high probability of success.

After all, Raven, a cadre who had made many contributions to the World Serpent, has now been completely expelled from the organization.

Now that she has lost her Herrscher power in order to forge the Key of Corruption, can Yae Sakura still continue to be protected by World Serpent?

Not to mention, this woman had previously offended Walter White.

"exchange?"

Upon hearing Otto's words, Shihen smiled first, then gently shook his head, "If it were before, handing over [Shadow of the Sunset] to you wouldn't have been a problem."

But now... Kevin is the true master of the World Serpent.

"Really? That's a real shame."

Otto gave a forced, insincere sigh.

He will accept any action that is beneficial to saving the world, regardless of whether it is good or evil.

But he will also reward those who have made contributions to the world with equivalent value.

From this perspective, Kevin can be considered a true leader of humanity.

Shihen nodded slightly and said.

"Truly admirable."

Otto chuckled in agreement.

“Therefore, I also bring you a contract for him, Otto.”

With a slight smile, Shihen said, "As long as you can meet my requirements, the World Serpent will help you fulfill your long-cherished wish of the past five hundred years."

"Oh? Is this the World Serpent's request, or your condition, Your Excellency?"

Otto asked with a light laugh.

He believed Kevin would approve of his actions, but [Walter White]... Otto really had no idea what the guy could get out of it.

“Both.”

Shihen calmly explained, "Before the end comes, Kevin and I can still be considered to have the same goal."

"is it?"

Otto smiled and pressed on with more questions.

The word "for the time being" alone has many points that are open to discussion.

“You have no choice in front of us, Otto.”

Shihen chuckled lightly.

"Thank you for reminding me, Your Excellency."

With a smile, Otto's attitude instantly became humble. "Then, I wish you all the best, Bishop."

As he spoke, a glimmer of light flashed in Otto's lowered eyelids.

Although there are still some things he doesn't understand, he has already obtained quite a lot of information this time.

At least, he was certain that he was only a few steps away from resurrecting Kallen!
