Chapter 38: The Way Home
"Hahahaha"
Laughing wantonly, in a playful tone, the demon in the box continued.
"Let me tell you! You are the one who pushed the girl into the abyss, Otto Apocaris."
"Hmph, I've known about this kind of thing for a long time, and even your appearance is in my calculations."
With the look of a fool in his eyes, Otto thought to himself.
"The girl who learned the truth once resented you"
"'Why, why are you telling me this, isn't it good to live in fantasy forever?' β
"Until that incident happened, then again, it was a big surprise to me. My pet is really causing you trouble. β
The girl thought she had found her own light, but it was all just a fantasy. In countless dreams, she hopes to snatch you from others and make you a doll that belongs to her."
"Now, are you done?" Plucking out his ears, Otto showed no concern about the matter.
Confused by this unexpected statement, the demon in the box was stunned for a long time.
"You didn't understand, shouldn't you feel guilty at this time?" The painting style of the originally fierce and vicious Honkai Beast has suddenly changed, and it looks cute with its eyes wide open.
"So, you're stupid."
"Up, Karen!" Greeting Karen, who seemed to be moved, Otto picked up his gun and rushed forward.
The blood-colored tip of the spear dragged a deep scratch on the ground, and with a flash of sparks, Otto moved in front of the Honkaimon.
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
It's as if I've had a long dream, and the girl in the dream is surrounded by this group of monsters.
As far as the eye could see, there was a young man with blond hair, and the helpless girl wished that the young man would look at her.
But the young man's gaze remained fixed on the white-haired girl beside him......
They go farther and farther......
Go further and further......
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
"Now, what is this guy going to do!" Helping the two A-class Valkyries who had been lying on the corpse for a long time, bandaging their wounds, Karen asked, pointing to the body of the fox Honkaimon.
"Of course, I brought it back, it will be very helpful for the study of the Mandate of Heaven." Wiping Judas, Otto said.
"Isn't the purpose of my trip, how can the shortcut to the realm of gods be easily let go." I thought so in my heart.
"But......" Karene looked up, she seemed a little overwhelmed.
"Put away your naΓ―ve thoughts, Karen."
"Stop......" At this moment, a voice echoed in his head.
"Hey, hey, what's wrong with you? Isn't that what we're for? Rioto, who was controlling his body at the moment, was puzzled.
"I said stop it!"
Control of the body was reversed, and when Otto really opened his eyes again, the cold aura dissipated a lot.
People have feelings after all, and no matter how rational Otto is, he will inevitably have a weakness in his heart.
Even a seasoned killer will wash his hands of gold because of the discovery of his conscience in that moment.
"Does a boring conscience interfere with your judgment? May you not regret it, Marauder! The voice of the personality lingered in his head for a long time, but after saying this sentence, he did not respond for a long time.
"I know"
"Now, Karen. Let's find a place to seal them away."
Somewhat surprised by Otto's 180Β° transformation, Karen was stunned for a few seconds before nodding heavily.
"So, hurry up. Do it before the two wake up. β
Standing up, Otto walked towards the two knives stuck in the ground.
Gently pulling the knife up, the crimson blade is as eye-catching as a falling cherry blossom
"It's really beautiful, let's find a place to bury it."
While the two of them were busy with their own affairs, the Valkyrie, who was supposed to be unconscious, opened her eyes......
ββββββ Dividing Lineββββββ
"You're finally back...... Otto: What are you holding in your hands? Seeing the looks on everyone's faces, Changguang didn't ask what happened, but she was more concerned about the knife in Otto's hand.
"This, it seems to be the spirit knife of the shrine." Wanting to ease the atmosphere, Otto, who didn't talk much, seemed much more enthusiastic than before.
"Eh......" took the spirit knife, and Changguang squatted in the corner to study it alone.
"Otto, tomorrow...... Let's go back."
"Go back? Destiny? β
"Yes"
ββ¦β¦β
"I see"
There was no word all night, in this silent atmosphere. Everyone waited until dawn the next day.
"Oh, it's so pretty," Changguang exclaimed from outside the house, and perhaps only such a coarse guy could laugh.
Hardly all night without closing his eyes, Otto came out of the room at the first moment of hearing the commotion outside.
When you open the wooden sliding door, you will be greeted by a large field of fluttering flower petals.
"Speaking of which, it's really time to bloom."
Reaching out to catch the fallen petals, Otto said.
"Yo, Otto. Are you ready? β
Karen's voice came from behind her, and she seemed much more energetic than yesterday.
Turning around, Otto saw the other party's red eyes, presumably he must have cried hard last night.
At some point, the two A-rank Valkyries sent by the headquarters had also stood by Otto's side.
"Master, your things"
Respectfully handing over the Otto equipment in his hand, the perfect etiquette could not find fault in the slightest.
"Speaking of which, what about the Changguang people?"
Asking everyone, Otto had no one to see her from the moment she came out.
"Said she was going to return the knife, let's wait for her"
Karen seemed to understand this, and she answered Otto's questions.
At this moment, at the end of the distant line of sight, a large black dot was vaguely seen approaching.
Squinting his eyes, Otto looked into the distance......
I saw a villager with a farm tool chasing a figure......
"What a stupid death! Even returning a knife can attract so many people! β
Pulling Karen up, Otto turned around and ran, followed by two Valkyries behind him.
"Catch her! That's the thief! β
"Give me back my pork!"
"And my herbs!"
"My Wood"
ββ¦β¦β¦β¦β
ββ¦β¦β
"Grab her and break her hamstrings!"
"Hahaha, early Otto! I'll go first! β
Passing by Otto and others who were carrying large bags and small bags, Changguang greeted him with a smile.
"Stop me, you bastard"
I really don't know where Changguang got so much strength, she actually left everyone far behind.
Cherry blossoms are beautiful, but they are fleeting.
The flowers come to an end, and the excess nostalgia will only add to the sadness.
"The next time we meet will be 500 years away...... I will definitely get this account back! β
