Chapter 598
Himeko's head sprouted black lines and her eye twitched.
Bai Ge, why do you poke at people's pain points as soon as you open your mouth? I am busy fighting the Honkai and protecting the world all day long, where would I have the time to talk about some damn romance? It is definitely not because I can't find anyone!
Wait, by the way, Bai Ge, how exactly did you do it, having both a successful career and love, leading humanity to fight the Honkai while also dating and feeding dog food all day long.
Himeko revealed the jealousy and confusion of a single dog, and then she immediately reacted.
(Oh right, this guy came with a CP. When he first joined the Fire Moth, he was already with Elysia. Damn it, I am so envious!)
Thinking of the photos of the two of them being affectionate that Elysia updated on her Moments on time every day, Himeko felt she was so low.
She was already over thirty and couldn't find a boyfriend. When she posted on Moments, she could only post about how many Honkai beasts she killed today...
"So, what does the great hero Bai want with me?"
"No rush, let's clean up your room first."
"Huh?"
Before Himeko could react, Bai Ge had already brought Aponia into her room and started to neatly help her clean up the dormitory where mushrooms had already started to grow.
Although Bai Mou's housework skills had been wasted for a period of time under the care of the perfect maid Rita in the past, he had recovered them after coming to the current civilization.
· ·······Begging for flowers····· ·
After all, the pink fairy's housework ability was average, and Bai Ge was so doting on her.
"Mm~ it looks much more comfortable like this."
"Uh, thank you?"
Ten minutes later, looking at her clean and tidy dormitory, Himeko was stunned and flattered at the same time.
Bai Ge's status now was much more noble than hers. As a result, this great hero of humanity suddenly came to find her on such a day off and cleaned her room for her.
Was she on such good terms with Bai Ge? Could it be that he was actually interested in her?
Himeko couldn't help but imagine things.
In fact, Bai Ge just thought of Himeko when he looked at her.
Himeko was also an older single woman and a life-waste before meeting him, plus the almost identical appearance of the two, Bai Ge subconsciously substituted Himeko.
"Alright, next is the real business."
"Starting so soon? I haven't prepared mentally yet, and you actually brought Aponia. Bai Ge, you wouldn't be thinking... I, I can't accept that!"
Himeko crossed her arms and said shyly and angrily.
"Tsk! Aponia, cast something else on her first."
"Yes, Himeko, 【Please】 do not think about lewd things."
"... I, I didn't!"
Himeko wanted to hit someone. These two were simply inexplicable. Suddenly coming to find her, suddenly cleaning, suddenly "falsely accusing" her of thinking about lewd things.
However, she was surprised to find that the thoughts in that regard in her brain seemed to have really disappeared!
In short, after a chaotic farce, Bai Ge finally pushed the topic forward.
"Aponia, cast the discipline I mentioned on her."
"Okay, Captain Himeko, 【Please】 forget what happens next, but follow what Bai Ge says—【Please】, never harm humanity."
"............"
This was a forcibly implanted discipline, but Bai Ge didn't need to seek Himeko's consent anyway. Now, on any matter related to the Honkai, he had the highest decision-making power.
Himeko wouldn't remember this discipline, but she would obey it honestly. Bai Ge didn't know if she would also obey this discipline after becoming a Herrscher.
But this was a possibility worth trying, wasn't it?
Before the Herrscher host becomes a Herrscher, implanting the discipline of "cannot be an enemy of humanity" might be able to become her shackle after she becomes a Herrscher.
"Regardless of whether this move will succeed, I will not let you kill anyone, Himeko. I promise, I will never let you bear the sins of a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood."
Bai Ge whispered to the dazed Himeko.
This had nothing to do with her being the previous civilization's counterpart of Himeko.
It was because Bai Ge knew that Himeko was a brave female warrior fighting on the front line against the Honkai, one of the many heroes protecting humanity.
A person like her should not become a Herrscher. Bai Ge would never let the Honkai tarnish this woman's dignity and will.
"Aponia, do you think this is useful?"
"I don't know, because of your relationship, her fate has become unpredictable."
"That means there is a possibility of change. That is good."
Actually, Bai Ge could have just thrown Himeko into the Deepest Depths and waited for her to become a Herrscher, then captured her alive.
After all, according to the system's past statements, it was a destined fate for a Herrscher host to become a Herrscher. Unless the host was killed in advance, this fate could hardly be changed.
But Bai Ge knew it was absolutely not that easy.
After all, the proctor on the moon named "Cocoon of Finality" was watching at all times. It couldn't choose someone who was already in an inescapable cage to be a Herrscher.
Otherwise, the difficulty would be too low.
In that case, Bai Ge only needed to remember the identities of all Herrschers, and then build the Deepest Depths in advance in the second playthrough, and lock all Herrscher hosts inside, and he could directly handle all Herrschers except the Finality.
But this monitor, which could change the questions at any time, wouldn't let you score so easily when it saw you already had the correct answers in your hand; instead, it would immediately change the questions!
So...
(I have to pretend I don't know what the questions are, at least I can't make too extreme preparations. I can't let the Cocoon of Finality discover that I already have the answers.)
Bai Ge looked up at the sky, at the moon that was still visible in the daytime, as if he were staring at the "Cocoon".
However, although he was on guard in his heart, he didn't care too much in reality, because Bai Ge felt that the "Cocoon of Finality" was not a very smart proctor.
Otherwise, the Herrscher of Ice wouldn't have brushed against his and Kalpas's faces, only to send a head for nothing, and her only achievement was a village of scum.
Bai Ge: "Tsk tsk, didn't expect it, I could still experience the tension of playing wits with the proctor in the exam room so many years after graduation. However... although this proctor isn't blind, its brain isn't very easy to use. Easy to handle."
However, although its brain wasn't easy to use, it would flip the table.
Thinking of the two super-difficult problems of the future, the Herrscher of Binding and the Finality, Bai Ge couldn't help but grit his teeth.
He cursed it as a lunatic in his heart.
What kind of exam in this world would make you fail if you got one question wrong! Especially when the last few questions were directly out of the syllabus!
