Chapter 1098

~8 min read 1,476 words

As for anger, it was already gone, but instead, he had hundreds more inspirations for torturing this guy.

"Although it doesn't fit my aesthetics, since you like to use other people's important people to threaten, then I will also let you experience the feeling of being threatened." Bai Ge said lightly.

"What?"

"Otto Apocalypse, do you still remember the scenery of that day? Dark clouds covered Kolosten. Although it was daytime, it was like a dark night. Crows circled and cawed together. Oh right, I remember that day was also a rare solar eclipse... a day when even the sun was dim and lusterless."

"Y-you, what exactly are you talking about!"

Otto's body trembled. He was so shocked that he almost couldn't hold the soul-steel fragment in his hand.

Bai Ge's words forcibly awakened his memory. How could he forget the scene of that day?

"In front of the largest church in Kolosten, under the gaze of the masses, the gallows for the executed saint stood high."

"How do you know!"

"The saint wearing a white-gold nun's habit was escorted to the execution ground. I remember the person escorting her was wearing a black nun's habit, opposite to her. Heh, such details don't seem to matter."

Bai Ge ignored him and said to himself.

And Otto could no longer maintain his calm at this moment.

"The saint in shackles felt disappointed in the world and voluntarily stepped onto the gallows. But just at that time, a certain clown committed the most stupid crime of his life."

"For the sake of his own wishful salvation, Otto Apocalypse released the Honkai Beasts kept in the church's basement, letting them slaughter civilians wantonly, causing heavy casualties, hoping to use this chaos to let the saint escape."

"But how could the Kaslana saint, who took protecting the people as her belief, sit idly by in the face of the tragedy before her? So the saint, dragging her exhausted body that had been locked in a cold dungeon for a night, heroically fought these Honkai Beasts."

"Finally, in order to protect a little girl, she died under the claws of a two-legged standing werewolf-type Honkai Beast."

"How does it feel? The imposed kindness turned into malice. The result of your wishful attempt to save her was that the saint who should have died on the gallows became dead in the hands of an ugly Honkai Beast."

Every word Bai Ge said was like a heavy hammer striking Otto Apocalypse's heart, making his soul tremble, and at the same time, he told all the Valkyries present about the past he had hidden in the bottom of his heart for five hundred years, which was hard to speak of.

These Schicksal Valkyries were shocked beyond measure, staring at Otto in a daze, not expecting that their own Overseer had such a past.

Like a hopeless, stupid clown in this world, he personally caused the death of his loved one.

And this was also the biggest difference between him and Bai Ge.

Five thousand years ago, Bai Ge also faced a choice similar to this, but the meaning and influence were far greater than this.

He also once turned into a Fool, and then tried to save his beloved Pink Fairy Lady again and again.

Although he had failed many times, unlike Otto who personally caused the death of the saint, Bai Ge protected Elysia until the very last moment every time.

The Kallen who was killed last felt pain, coldness, and despair, because she couldn't defeat that Honkai Beast in the end, and in the last moments of her life, she could only watch the Honkai Beast run rampant.

At that moment, perhaps Kallen's heart also harbored resentment toward Otto, who caused that tragedy.

But Elysia was different. At the end of every cycle, she was lying in the arms of her favorite Bai Ge, with infinite happiness, reluctance, and blessings, choosing to sacrifice herself.

"Why do you know these things!"

Otto stared dead at Bai Ge and asked.

If it were just knowing what happened, that would be fine, but Bai Ge's description was too detailed!

As if he had witnessed the tragedy with his own eyes at that time!

The answer was that path of time.

Bai Ge once spent more than ten thousand years walking the path of time reversal to get from the present to the past.

On that path, he had once served as a watcher of history, witnessing everything that happened in the five thousand years, which naturally included the tragedy five hundred years ago.

"I said it, I have no obligation to answer you."

Bai Ge crossed his arms and flapped his wings, slowly landing on the ground. At the same time, his golden pupils looked directly at Otto, threatening him coldly and incomparably.

"Now, if you dare to harm a single hair of Cecilia, then I will definitely kill Kallen Kaslana."

"What did you say?!" Otto erupted with sharp killing intent, even making him break free from his fear of Bai Ge for an instant.

However, soon this fear drowned him again.

Because the white-haired youth said emotionlessly.

"Otto, I know the purpose of your living for five hundred years is to resurrect that saint. I can clearly tell you that the future you successfully accomplished this thing."

"!!!"

At this moment, Otto was so excited that he couldn't control himself. For the first time, someone told him so definitely that he could complete his wish. Although his reason was questioning it, his instinct was believing it.

The Void Archives also spoke again at this time.

【Otto, what we Savior Heroes of the previous civilization say is all true. This lord possesses the ability to foresee the future. Be happy, if he says you can resurrect Kallen, you definitely can.】

【Then despair. Now that you are an enemy of this lord, even if you can resurrect the saint, it's useless.】

【The saint you resurrect in the future might die under this lord's sword... Heh, but by then Kallen Kaslana should feel honored. After all, dying in the hands of the Savior Hero is much better than dying in the hands of an ugly Honkai Beast.】

Otto's eye corners twitched wildly. He directly threw the Void Archives onto the ground and kicked it far away.

Bai Ge sneered and said definitely.

"Void Archives is right, dog-Otto, your current behavior makes me very resentful. In the future... I might really destroy the wish you worked so hard to achieve for over five hundred years right in front of you!"

"No, no, you can't!" Otto was completely panicked.

"Can't? Why can't I! Could it be that only you are allowed to use other people's loved ones to threaten, and when it's your turn, you can't? Where is such a good thing!"

Bai Ge approached Cecilia step by step. He had no wariness or concerns, because in reality, no matter whether Otto accepted his threat or not, he could save the girl he loved.

He had now become strong enough, strong enough to save the person he loved under any crisis.

Otto retreated a few steps in fear, and the soul-steel fragment in his hand also fell to the ground. Bai Ge used the soft spot he absolutely couldn't defy to threaten him, treating him with his own medicine.

He could no longer make any move to hurt Cecilia, or even any move to defy or resist.

Just thinking about it made Otto feel incomparably fearful. After he finally resurrected Kallen in the future, she would die again because of the sins he committed at this moment.

By then, he was afraid he would really go crazy!

Even if he wanted to treat it as a joke, he couldn't, because the absolute power displayed by this Savior Hero proved that he could really complete the threat he made.

Because he was an absolute death far more terrifying than the Honkai Beast from five hundred years ago, more terrifying than the Herrscher of Finality, and even more terrifying than fate—an existence Otto Apocalypse could not defeat.

He could easily destroy the things more important to him than life.

And after understanding this point.

Otto knelt down. In front of all the Valkyries, he shattered his usual elegance, arrogance, and high-and-mighty image, and began to beg for Bai Ge's forgiveness in the most wretched, humble, and pitiful posture.

Bai Ge looked coldly at Otto's repentance and begging.

He didn't feel happy or satisfied.

But he also didn't have any guilt or sympathy.

Because Bai Ge knew everything was this guy's own fault. Who told this dog-Otto to use Cecilia to threaten him.

Second update, begging for flowers, begging for tickets, begging for tips.

That hateful cliffhanger dog from miHoYo! Have to wait for the next version again! ===== CHAPTER 1099 =====
