This was a scene that shocked the three worlds of Teyvat, Honkai Impact 3rd, and Honkai: Star Rail.
On the screen, the sacred Tree of Imaginary Numbers grew new branches, and the originally stagnant fate was extended once more, turning into new possibilities.
The man dressed in a pure white uniform, with golden hair, wore a childlike smile on his face.
"This other future!!"
"It will be her time..."
As Otto Apocalypse finished speaking, the scene changed.
Time rewound to the night of five hundred years ago.
At the headquarters of Destiny, before the Cologne Cathedral.
Whether it was the smoke-filled square, or the raging flames.
The girl Kallen, whose body had been pierced through, or the ferocious Honkai Beast.
All of time froze in an instant, like a black-and-white photograph.
Then—
Sizzle!!
A sound like shattering glass appeared above the city.
Above the empty city, the vast void was suddenly filled with countless cracks.
Then—
Like fragments of broken glass,
Light pierced through the darkness, and endless radiance poured down upon the world.
The raging flames on the battlefield were extinguished instantly.
The wounds on Kallen's body healed in an instant as well.
At this moment,
Before the eyes of the audiences of the Teyvat Continent, the Honkai Impact 3rd world, and the Honkai: Star Rail world,
That fate which could only move forward and never retreat,
Was rewritten by a man named Otto Apocalypse!!
This blond man turned an imperfect world into the future he desired.
The camera zoomed upward.
In this world from five hundred years ago,
Within the boundless, misty clouds,
The blond man, his body riddled with holes and bruises, tightly gripped the Pure Love Skyfire Greatsword in his hand. Amid the howling winds and blazing flames,
The man wielding the Flame Greatsword fell from the sky like a meteor.
This scene was like a god descending upon the earth!!
But this blond man, covered in wounds, was not a god after all.
After five hundred years of time, five hundred years of pursuit, five hundred years of obsession, five hundred years of malice, and five hundred years of faith,
He had reached the end of his life.
At this moment, his body began to crumble inch by inch under the erosion of endless collapse energy.
He had exhausted all his strength.
He could only force his green eyes open and look at the surviving Kallen on the ground.
How cruel must a person be to commit such ruthless and endless crimes of escape.
How foolish must a person be to love so deeply.
How mad must a person be to endure five hundred years of loneliness, daring even to mock the gods with a mortal body!!
Yet,
This was merely a decision made by a small, utterly selfish man!!
Life is too long.
The epitaph is too short.
A smile curved at the corner of the blond man's mouth as he raised the Skyfire Sword in his hand with all his remaining strength.
The gilded sword, blazing with fierce flames, struck down upon the ferocious Honkai Beast that had killed Kallen!!
Boom!!
With a tremendous explosion,
The blond man and the Honkai Beast were reduced to smoke and dust.
Five hundred years ago,
Kallen shielded the child behind her, her blue eyes filled with disbelief.
And just a few seconds later,
Countless white lights, like shooting stars, descended upon the city in a daytime meteor shower!!
Amid this breathtakingly beautiful meteor shower, Kallen Kaslana heard a voice that was both familiar and unfamiliar.
"Kallen, stay alive..."
In the next instant,
Kallen hurriedly turned around, but there was nothing around her except the blast crater and the burning flames.
This was the most selfish thing a man could do.
It was also the most selfless thing a man could do.
The scene shifted.
The timeline moved forward once more.
The afternoon when the twelve-year-old Otto first met Kallen appeared on the screen again.
Under the golden sunlight, beneath the gentle breeze,
The leaves of the forest rustled softly as the sun slowly sank.
Between the swaying shadows of the trees, specks of shimmering light appeared.
The blonde boy and the white-haired girl laughed and played within the forest.
Above their heads,
A repaired wooden plane flew through the sky.
Clear, bell-like laughter echoed through the woods.
As the scene came fully into view,
Accompanied by gentle, melodious music,
Whether it was the Teyvat Continent, the Honkai Impact 3rd world, or the Honkai: Star Rail world,
The audiences of the three worlds were instantly moved to tears.
On the screen, the wooden plane soared.
Otto Apocalypse's life flashed by at incredible speed.
This blond man had witnessed Kallen's death with his own eyes.
From that moment on, his world lost all its color.
He had personally killed his brother and his father, his hands stained with blood, and rose to become the ruler of a world forged in iron and fire!!
He committed countless unforgivable crimes!!
During the First Eruption, he destroyed a city of tens of millions.
During the Second Eruption, he toyed with human hearts like a clown and ultimately glimpsed the divine!!
He created the experimental subject K423 solely to seize the Authority of the Herrscher of the Void!!
He dealt hypocritically with Kevin, leader of the Thirteen Flame-Chasers and the World Serpent.
He accomplished what Kevin wished to do but could not.
Yet Kevin had achieved what Otto could never accomplish fifty thousand years ago!!
But all of this ultimately turned to dust.
Unknowingly,
The sun sank into the west, and the final glow of dusk faded away.
Only the crimson afterglow lingered faintly in the sky.
Within this light,
The wooden plane slowly ran out of power and fell into the field.
When the blond man bent down to pick up the wooden plane,
Above him stretched an endless, brilliant starry sky.
At this moment,
The birds that never fall came to rest, and the soul returned to its final destination.
At this moment,
The future spoken of by Apocalypse also reached its end.
The camera lowered.
Beneath a large tree,
The twelve-year-old Otto sat beside the blue-eyed, white-haired girl before a campfire.
In the quiet of the night,
Kallen slept soundly on Otto's shoulder, their fingers tightly interlocked.
Two brilliant meteors traced radiant arcs across the night sky.
It was an incomparably beautiful summer night.
It was also the best day of Otto Apocalypse's life.
Swish.
The image froze.
Hundreds of millions of viewers across the three worlds stared at the screen, unable to recover for a long time.
Moments later—
Boom!!
Whether in the Teyvat Continent, the Honkai Impact 3rd world, or the Honkai: Star Rail world,
The audiences of the three worlds erupted in shock and fervor!!
[Extraordinary Chat Group]
[Paimon: Woohoo! I don't know why, but even though Otto was such a bad guy, when I saw that wooden plane fall, I couldn't stop myself from crying!!]
[Rita: After five hundred years of wandering, the Bishop has achieved the ultimate feat of mortals. Farewell, my Lord Bishop!!]
[Jing Yuan: It was a thrilling journey. Love can endure everything, but it cannot erase sins. Still, General of the Xianzhou, Jing Yuan, salutes Otto Apocalypse, the Bishop of Destiny who defied fate!!]
[Elysia: I will take the malice to the grave. Because of you, the light moves toward the future. Otto Apocalypse, I will remember you!!]
[Kevin: Frankly speaking, Otto Apocalypse is indeed worthy of respect for standing equal to my future self.]
[Blade: The world allows consciousness to inhabit new vessels, but does not allow vessels to gather scattered consciousness. Bai Heng… is this what I must do to save you?]
[Barbatos: Otto is an extremely complex man. There is no need to curse him, admire him, hate him, or pity him—because Otto Apocalypse would not care in the slightest.]
[Kiana: Otto deserved to die. He killed too many people. I was happy when he died, yet I still pay tribute to him.]
[Traveler Ying: How far must a person walk to find themselves at the end of time? Otto Apocalypse, you did it. But only the dead Otto is the best Otto.]
[Zhongli: Otto Apocalypse's victory deserves respect. He reshaped an imperfect world into the one he desired.]
[March 7th: I'll open a bottle of wine for Otto's victory, pour the first glass for him, and keep the rest—just in case he tries to resurrect!]
[...]
Just as the audiences of the three worlds were typing messages to vent their emotions—
Sizzle!!
A new past-life revelation appeared on the screen.
The future of Inazuma began to play.
At this moment,
The once-noisy audiences of the three worlds fell silent, watching the rapidly shifting scenes on the screen.
As the images played,
Viewers from the Honkai Impact 3rd world and the Honkai: Star Rail world gradually learned of a nation called Inazuma.
Unlike Fontaine, which upheld justice and judgment,
Inazuma was a nation closed off from the outside world, pursuing eternity.
To safeguard eternity,
Inazuma's god, the Raiden Shogun, believed that those who possessed Visions were threats to eternity itself.
Thus, the Raiden Shogun issued the Vision Hunt Decree!!
Extraordinary individuals bearing Visions were hunted down.
Against this backdrop,
Traveler Ying and Paimon stepped into the land of Inazuma.
The future unfolded at an accelerated pace.
Traveler Ying and Paimon first met Thoma, then encountered Kamisato Ayaka, the eldest daughter of the Yashiro Commission.
Together, they journeyed across Inazuma.
Through Ying and Paimon's perspective, the audiences witnessed the misery of those who had lost their Visions under the Vision Hunt Decree.
In Teyvat, a Vision is born when a person's wish reaches its peak.
The gaze of the Seven Gods is cast upon them!!
To lose a Vision is to lose one's wish.
And when a person loses their wish, they lose their reason to live.
The pace of the scenes quickened again.
To oppose the Raiden Shogun, Ying and Paimon joined the resistance forces of Watatsumi Island.
Thus,
Whether it was Sangonomiya Kokomi, the Divine Priestess of Watatsumi Island, the general Gorou, or Kaedehara Kazuha,
They all became familiar figures to the audiences of the three worlds!!
As the scenes continued,
Traveler Ying and Paimon uncovered the truth—that the Kujou Clan of Inazuma had colluded with the Fatui to create Delusions!!
With the conspiracy exposed,
The eternal nation of Inazuma reached a crossroads of destiny.
The perspective shifted.
The camera focused on Tenshukaku, the Raiden Shogun's residence.
A girl with long dark-purple hair braided down her back, light purple eyes, a tear-shaped mole beneath her right eye, dressed in purple garments with black-and-gold armor on her left shoulder, appeared on the screen.
This cold and aloof figure was none other than Inazuma's supreme authority—the Raiden Shogun!!
The next scene shocked the audiences even further.
Within Tenshukaku, pillars of lightning surged skyward.
With a single strike, the Raiden Shogun slew La Signora, the Eighth Harbinger of the Fatui, after her defeat by Traveler Ying!!
Then,
With her back to Traveler Ying, the Raiden Shogun said,
"You… are the eternal enemy."
"But I acknowledge your honor as the victor."
"Therefore, I permit you to leave Tenshukaku."
As she finished speaking, the camera shifted.
Traveler Ying and Paimon walked out of Tenshukaku.
The sky was pitch-dark, thunder and lightning raging above.
Even through the screen, the audiences could feel the crushing pressure.
Yet just as Ying and Paimon stepped outside,
Kaedehara Kazuha and Gorou arrived with countless resistance fighters at the gates of Tenshukaku!!
At that moment—
Sizzle!!
The void above Tenshukaku was torn apart by thunder.
The Raiden Shogun stepped forth from the裂空, her blade blazing with boundless lightning as she struck down toward Ying and Paimon.
At that instant,
The camera shifted to Kaedehara Kazuha.
Time seemed to stand still.
Memories surged through Kazuha's mind.
A past involving his closest friend unfolded before the audiences.
To oppose the Vision Hunt Decree, Kazuha's friend had challenged the Raiden Shogun to a duel.
When Kazuha arrived at the dueling grounds,
His friend's blade lay shattered, the arena soaked in blood.
Kazuha had no time to hesitate.
He seized his friend's Vision amid the chaos and fled.
He could not allow his friend's burning wish to be entombed within a cold statue.
At that moment,
Kazuha's inner voice echoed across the screen.
"My friend died honorably in the arena!!"
"There was nothing wrong with the Raiden Shogun's strike!!"
"My resentment toward the Raiden Shogun comes from the Vision Hunt Decree!!"
"No one has the right to strip others of their wishes—not even a god!!"
The future of Inazuma reached its final scene.
But in the present, before billions across the three worlds,
Just as the Raiden Shogun's thunder blade was about to strike down Ying and Paimon—
Swish!!
Kaedehara Kazuha, white-haired and red-eyed, stepped forward.
A wind-element Vision glowed at his waist.
At the same time, the Vision of his fallen friend flared with brilliant lightning!!
"There will always be those who dare to face the might of thunder!!"
Boom!!
With a deafening explosion,
The audiences of the three worlds witnessed a breathtaking sight.
The wandering swordsman Kaedehara Kazuha used his blade to block the Raiden Shogun's thunder strike!!
At the same time,
Within the Statue of the Omnipresent God, countless embedded Visions burst forth with dazzling light!!
Even gods cannot take away human wishes!!
Illuminated by countless Visions, the resistance forces charged into Tenshukaku!!
Sizzle.
The past-life revelation came to an end.
Several lines of text appeared on the screen.
