"Ahhhhh, just fall already!!!"
Little Gui was controlling Shadow Knight: Moonblade, her fingers practically smoking from how fast she was mashing!
After familiarizing herself with Fu Hua's move set.
She could now execute that set of incredibly oppressive phantom punches with every combo!
Even so!
She still hoped to be faster!
To exert even more pressure!
Because,
the Herrscher of the Void's health bar was simply too thick!
Even though Fu Hua in her burst state could injure her.
But the Herrscher of the Void at this moment possessed three gems!
Among them, the Gem of Serenity would unleash the power of the Herrscher of Death.
Her wounds were healing at an astonishing speed!
Her health bar wasn't decreasing—it was increasing!
In this battle of attrition,
even Fu Hua was defeated!
At this moment.
Fu Hua was grabbed by the neck by the Herrscher of the Void.
Who taunted her directly to her face:
"Even in the battle just now, you didn't go all out."
"Why? You possess two Divine Keys, yet you refused to use the other one."
"Do you think it's not the right time to use it? Or perhaps… you can't control it?"
"Or maybe, you simply can't use it at all?"
"But it doesn't matter, it won't change anything."
"Die!"
And at this critical moment.
An untimely round of applause rang out.
That man,
had appeared on the battlefield!
Even though the situation was so dire.
Otto's tone was as flippant as ever.
"What an exciting battle."
"As expected of the Queen of Honkai. Your presence is always so dazzling."
The moment Otto appeared,
the barrage of comments exploded!
Of course,
it wasn't excitement or enthusiasm,
but annoyance and anger!
...
"Damn you, Otto, this is all your doing!"
"Just hearing him talk makes me want to punch him!"
"I really want to give him a punch in the face!"
"Is he here to save Fu Hua?"
"After all, Fu Hua is a Valkyrie of Schicksal. Otto coming to save her is just him fulfilling his duty as the Overseer."
"It seems Otto still has a bit of a conscience."
"All of this was caused by him, so he should be the one to take responsibility!"
...
"You, I recognize you,"
the Herrscher of the Void spoke.
"You're the one who awakened me, a pitiful human who covets the power of the gods."
"Hehehe... It's my honor to be remembered by you."
"Then, as a token of gratitude for granting you a second life, could you please go easy on her?"
You think I'll go easy just because you said so?
Do you think the Honkai is your personal playground?
Little Gui was just about to retort.
Suddenly, lines of subtitles appeared!
[Otto spread his palm, pointing at the hostage in the Herrscher's hand.]
[At the same time, a crimson liquid began to seep out from his body.]
[The blood-like fluid spiraled up along Otto's arm.]
[Finally, it condensed into several sharp, needle-like spikes.]
[The blood spikes pointed directly at the Herrscher ahead, as if they could burst forth at any moment.]
"She is my friend. I don't want her to be harmed."
[Otto's tone remained playful and flippant, just like his usual carefree demeanor.]
[But the Herrscher didn't see it that way.]
[It wasn't Otto, but those blood spikes that made her instinctively uneasy.]
[It was something familiar yet unfamiliar at the same time.]
[――Should I fight this clown here?]
The Herrscher of the Void sneered.
"She's not worth my effort. If you want her, she's yours."
[This time, the Queen chose not to engage in battle.]
[She sensed an aura from that man that was similar to her own.]
[――And another kind of bottomless obsession, different from hers.]
Seeing this scene,
Many players were stunned!
...
"Huh?"
"Otto seems to have something up his sleeve!"
"What are those blood spikes? Can they really threaten the Second Herrscher? They look pretty impressive!"
"I can't figure out what the Schicksal Overseer is trying to do!"
"If I were a Valkyrie of Schicksal, I'd rebel immediately! How could I let someone like him command me?"
"If I were the Queen, I'd slap that blond man to death first!"
"Now I understand Old Yang. Anyone with that face needs to be thoroughly interrogated and kept under strict surveillance!"
...
Little Gui was also surprised.
Just like that, she let her go?
Is the Herrscher really that easy to talk to?
However,
What came next,
Otto's words completely shocked her!
Even to the point of shattering her worldview!
"K423's consciousness fell into a deep slumber due to the Herrscher's awakening, but she hasn't disappeared."
"Then, what would happen if, conversely, K423's consciousness overcame Sirin's consciousness?"
"――The answer is, a human with the power of a Herrscher would be born."
"This has already been proven by the 3rd Herrscher and the Fourth Herrscher."
"Even if the Herrscher's consciousness is suppressed, the Herrscher's power won't vanish."
"And controlling a human is far easier than controlling a Herrscher."
"Of course, making K423's consciousness win is no easy task. But it's not entirely impossible either."
"That's right, it's emotions. Emotions will create miracles."
"I've always believed that the deep bonds between people can transform into the purest and most powerful force."
"It is in such desperate situations that humanity shines its brightest."
"When a sacrifice appears, K423 will reclaim this body!"
...
"???"
"He's insane!"
"Truly impressive!"
"～I'm shocked!"
"This person absolutely cannot be allowed to remain. Their ideology is extremely dangerous, no less than Dr. Primitive!"
"Even we Intellitrons couldn't be so cold-hearted!"
"Investigate! Investigate thoroughly!"
"Once someone like this wields immense power, they will cause catastrophic damage to the entire world!"
"Damn that Otto! I can't even look at Luocha in my team the same way anymore!"
" Luocha's reputation has been tarnished..."
...
Fu Hua, who had always been calm and composed,
could barely contain her anger after hearing these words.
She,
finally saw Otto's true nature.
"Your words lack even a trace of conscience... only bottomless selfishness and lies..."
"Trampling on others' emotions, toying with their fates..."
"Not even for a moment... did you think of yourself as a villain..."
"Otto, Apocalypse..."
"You make me feel... pity and disgust... from the depths of my heart..."
Fu Hua's words clearly stated her stance.
They also marked her complete break with Otto!
Receiving such a response,
Otto didn't seem surprised.
Golden light gathered in his right hand, gradually taking the shape of a pistol.
The muzzle,
was aimed at Fu Hua.
All sounds seemed to freeze at this moment!
Only cold subtitles,
narrated the emotional journey of this moment.
[It was a long process.]
[So long that the memories of these five hundred years seemed like a Pipedream, dissipating before his eyes, turning into Nihility.]
[It was an extremely short process.]
[So short that by the time he regained his senses, he had already made his choice.]
After a brief silence,
Otto lowered his voice.
Speaking in a grave and cold tone, he said:
"Red Kite Immortal... I did not lie..."
"Bang!"
After the gunshot,
on the black screen,
Little Gui's stunned face was reflected!
"What just happened?"
"Is... is it over?"
"He... he killed Fu Hua!?"
"Ahhhh damn that Otto! This is the first time I've ever seen such a terrible person!"
"I actually thought he was going to save Fu Hua, but instead, he personally executed her!"
