Chapter 1041
"Handsome!"
Bai Ge was very satisfied with his own improvisation.
He stood up and stretched his body, while looking around, wondering what had happened at this point in time in 1991.
(There doesn't seem to be any major events at this point in time; the First Herrscher/Welt has long since appeared, and there are still nine years until the Second Herrscher/my appearance, so everything is still early.)
"Besides, didn't I travel through time to Cecilia's past? Where is Cecilia herself right now?"
"Hey! Who are you? What are you doing in this place so late? If you don't want to encounter danger, leave quickly."
Just as Bai Ge was confused about the current situation, a young man's voice suddenly came from behind him.
"Hmm? This familiar voice is..."
Bai Ge frowned slightly, and when he turned his head to look, he discovered a white-haired husky that made his hands itch instinctively.
Of course, it wasn't Kevin; that guy was still swimming in the Sea of Quanta during this period. However, that iconic white hair and blue eyes, the aura of the Kaslana Stigmata, and that familiar face also made Bai Ge recognize him immediately.
"Siegfried Kaslana, why are you here?"
"Hmm? Who are you? How do you know me? Could it be that Schicksal sent you to catch me and take me back?" Siegfried was stunned for a moment, then immediately raised the baseball bat in his hand and looked at Bai Ge vigilantly.
"Catch you and take you back... Oh, you're running away from home."
Bai Ge was also taken aback, and looking at Siegfried, who was not even 20 years old in front of him, he suddenly remembered.
In his youth, Siegfried was influenced by the mecha anime "Heavy Mecha Alahato" produced by Anti-Entropy, and he didn't want to be constrained by the mission of the Kaslana family; he wanted to pursue freedom, so he chose to run away from home.
If it weren't for his mother pleading for him, Otto would have long since dispatched troops to drag him back.
However, should one say that the wild ability of the Kaslanas is very strong? This guy ran away from home at fifteen, spent four years wandering outside, and has now become a private detective, wandering all over the world.
(Uh, I'm not qualified to say anything either...)
Recalling his time in the Previous Era, when he was running around the world with Elysia at the age of ten, Bai Mouren decided not to complain.
"Rest assured, I'm not one of those Schicksal people here to catch you. If anything, I hate that guy Otto."
"Oh? That's good, you gave me a scare."
"Hmm? You've lowered your guard just like that?"
"Uh, my intuition tells me you're a decent guy, and besides, how could someone who hates Otto be a bad person?"
Siegfried waved his hand and said carelessly.
"...... Makes sense."
Bai Ge nodded, agreeing with this reason.
"But you should still leave quickly. Since you know about Schicksal, you should also know about Honkai Beasts, right? There are a few Honkai Beasts in this area that they missed, and I'm here to deal with them."
Siegfried said while waving the baseball bat in his hand.
Bai Ge couldn't help but laugh, thinking to himself, do all the people in the Kaslana family like to use baseball bats to fight Honkai?
If a baseball bat-shaped Divine Key had been made for them back then, perhaps the compatibility might have been even higher than the Judgment of Shamash...
"Chariot—!!"
"Tsk, speak of the devil, these guys!"
Several Chariot-class Honkai Beasts suddenly appeared, and upon seeing Bai Ge and Siegfried, they launched an attack directly.
"Hey, leave this to me, you quickly..."
"Chariot, Chariot! Chariot!!"
"What the hell, what's going on?!"
Siegfried had just wanted to act cool, but he discovered that these few Chariot-class Honkai Beasts suddenly let out painful wails, and a few seconds later, they fell to the ground and didn't move a bit.
"Chariot-class, they don't even have the qualifications to get close to me."
"Uh, did you do this?"
"Uh-huh, don't worry about it, just a few small fries."
Bai Ge yawned; his ultra-high concentration Schariac holy blood was the nemesis of Honkai, and just the aura it emitted was enough to kill low-tier Honkai Beasts the moment they approached him.
And now that they weren't Judgment-class Honkai Beasts, Bai Ge didn't even have the thought of devouring or subduing them.
"What kind of dangerous person have I encountered?"
Siegfried broke out in a cold sweat; it was his first time seeing someone who could solve Honkai Beasts without even moving their hands.
"Don't be nervous, I'm not a bad person, or rather, there aren't many people in this world better than me."
"Is it really okay for you to say that yourself? Also, I was the one who took the commission to subjugate these Honkai Beasts, but you stole the kills... How about we split the reward 30/70?"
"No need, I'm not interested in money."
Bai Ge waved his hand. Sharing wealth with Eden, where would he need this little bit of money? Siegfried immediately gave a thumbs up, praising Boss Bai for his generosity; he was still very short on money.
Afterwards, the two walked on the road to the town.
And this energetic Kaslana husky had also completely let down his guard against Bai Ge.
"Hehe, Bai Ge, let me tell you, the person who gave me this commission is a great beauty, oh. Maybe she'll fall for me because of my strength and good looks."
"Heh~ With me here, do you think you have a chance? Speaking of which, you've really got guts. In history, the number of times a Kaslana heir has run away can be counted on two hands."
"Two times? I thought I was the only one. To be honest, I don't want to save the world or anything. I know our family is amazing, but I don't want to be bound by the family mission. I want to use my own eyes to confirm the meaning of my life!"
Siegfried said, thumping his chest. Bai Ge looked at this hot-blooded youth and seemed to see the shadow of Kevin.
"A good idea. One's own life and one's own destiny should be dominated by oneself. After all, we are born free, and the Kaslana mission is not a chain, but a glory. Whether or not to inherit it is your personal freedom."
Bai Ge said in approval.
The mission of 【Preservation】 is noble and glorious, but whether to bear this glory should still be a choice made by the individual.
"Haha! Bai Ge, what you said is really great! My life should be decided by myself! I'll treat you to a meal later!"
"Okay... forget it, it's definitely going to be slurping noodles."
"Eh? How did you know?"
"What else could a Kaslana treat be besides slurping noodles? I got sick of it 50,000 years ago." Bai Ge rolled his eyes.
Back in the Previous Era before 5.1, every team-building event organized by Kevin was eating noodles, and they were all plain noodles! When that guy did it for the tenth time, everyone beat him directly into the dough.
"By the way, let me ask, Siegfried, do you know Cecilia Schariac?"
"Who's that? Don't know her."
"Oh, looks like you haven't met yet."
"Hmm?! Bai Ge, look up quickly, someone is falling from the sky!" Siegfried suddenly pointed at the sky and shouted.
Bai Ge looked in that direction and immediately widened his eyes.
He saw a white-haired beautiful girl falling from the sky, and he recognized at a glance that this person was Cecilia.
"Such a coincidence? I'll catch her!"
He didn't expect her to fall right onto his face.
Bai Ge didn't even move a step. He raised his hands and caught the falling Cecilia just right.
Afterwards, he looked at the unconscious Cecilia in his arms, and for a moment, he didn't know what to do.
"Holy crap! A Schicksal Valkyrie!"
Siegfried was taken aback.
A Schicksal Valkyrie falling from the sky made him think that Otto had sent someone to catch him, but the next second he realized that wasn't the case, after all, she was unconscious.
Although he didn't want to fulfill his family's mission, there was no Kaslana who would sit idly by when seeing someone in need of help. However, Siegfried still couldn't help but worry whether coming into contact with Schicksal people would expose his whereabouts.
After all, with a Valkyrie here, there might be other Schicksal people nearby. If they happened to recognize him and then just dragged him back, wouldn't that be the end of it?
Siegfried expressed that he hadn't had enough fun outside yet!
(Uh, wait, I'm not the only one here!)
Siegfried: "Ahem! Bai Ge! I'll leave this woman to you to take care of! I suddenly remembered I have something to do, so I'll go first. We'll meet again, goodbye!"
Bai Ge: "Huh?"
Third update, seeking flowers, seeking tickets, seeking tips.
