Chapter 999
This time point was exactly after Kallen returned from the Far East, publicly claimed to have fallen in love with Yae Sakura, and was then sentenced to death by the Schicksal organization.
And because she refused to fulfill the engagement with Otto, there was no room for any probation or sentence reduction. Plus, the severe internal interest struggles of Schicksal during this period.
By tomorrow, this saint would have a noose put around her neck.
"You, how do you know my name?"
Kallen looked at Bai Ge nervously. At the same time, three people wearing bird-beak masks and black robes appeared.
"Why are you running away, Miss Kallen."
Bai Ge peeked a few times. Whether these medieval bird-beak doctors were doctors or not, they were undoubtedly members of the Schicksal organization during this period.
"I'm not running away, I just saw someone falling from the sky and wanted to catch him..."
Kallen also looked at Bai Ge a few more times. She had indeed intended to catch Bai Ge just now, but she didn't expect that the other party would grow wings halfway through falling and land safely.
"Hmph! Nonsense. You, who betrayed the Schicksal organization, have no credibility at all. Don't forget, you are a sinner who forgot your mission and fell in love with a demon!"
"Sakura is not!"
Kallen retorted loudly.
"... Miss Kallen, if you are willing to repent, I can still go and plead with the Master."
Among the three, the one with some patterns on the bird-beak mask, who looked to have the highest status, said.
"It's useless, Grandpa Arthur. Schicksal has already made the judgment, and now I have no reason to continue living. Anyway... everything is meaningless."
Kallen's eyes carried deep compassion and despair, like a bird that had lost its wings and could no longer fly into the sky.
"What are you babbling about? Come with us."
"Cough cough! I was clearly already conspicuous, is it really polite for you to ignore me like this?"
When someone wanted to grab Kallen's shackles and drag her away, Bai Ge flapped his wings behind him, directly blowing that person away.
"Or is it because you are ultimately program NPCs, so as long as I don't take the initiative to talk, you won't pay attention to me?"
"... Who are you? Six wings, could it be a Seraphim?" The bird-beak masked person called "Grandpa Arthur" by Kallen looked at Bai Ge.
"Ah, yes, yes, yes, I am the Seraphim. Don't worry, if you also want to kneel and worship, I won't stop you." Bai Ge said casually, while snapping the shackles on Kallen's hands.
"... What is your purpose?"
"This, just as you said, Kallen Kaslana has committed an unforgivable crime, so I am now going to apprehend her to the Heavenly Realm to accept judgment."
"Eh?"
Bai Ge made up an excuse casually, then pulled the confused Kallen and was about to leave.
"Stop!" x2
However, the next second, they were blocked. Two bird-beak masked people drew their weapons and pointed them at Bai Ge.
During this period, the West did indeed prevail in the belief in gods, but as the largest religious force, Schicksal, in fact, the higher the level of people, the less they believed, or even didn't believe at all.
Because they knew about the Honkai, so they knew that gods might not love humans, or even be enemies of humans. Otherwise, they wouldn't have the courage to draw swords at Bai Ge, who had the image of a Seraphim in the Bible.
"What angel! You fake!"
"How dare you do such a disrespectful thing!"
"【Kneel】."
Facing the two people rushing over with swords, Bai Ge ordered expressionlessly. The next second, the two people directly knelt on the ground honestly.
"Mm, the discipline obtained from Aponia is really convenient. It just so happens that I have no interest in doing anything to two small fries."
"You, who exactly are you?"
Kallen looked at Bai Ge in shock, and for a moment didn't know what to do.
"Damn it, guards! Guards! Quickly take down this fake angel! No matter what kind of sorcery you use, you dare to attack our Schicksal! You must pay the price!"
The two people kneeling on the ground shouted. Soon, a group of knights with the Schicksal emblem on their armor rushed over.
However...
"Give me 【Kneel】."
Thump!!!
Under Bai Ge's unreasonable discipline, these Schicksal knights knelt down as if they had been trained a thousand times, neat and uniform.
"Wh, what's going on?!"
"My body is out of control!"
"Who exactly is this person!"
"Just a passing Flame-Chaser, remember that." After speaking, Bai Ge ignored these embarrassed Schicksal knights, but held Kallen's hand and said domineeringly.
"Today I am going to take her away. I want to see who dares to stop me!"
"…………"
Kallen looked blankly at the white-haired youth before her. The saint's heart, which was like a dry well, fluctuated.
Bai Ge, who deterred the whole scene, nodded with satisfaction. Then, under the gaze of everyone around, he directly picked up Kallen in a princess carry and flew towards the blue sky.
For a moment, everyone present thought that Kallen was really going to be taken to the Heavenly Realm by him.
……………………
A few minutes later, on the city streets.
"So... you're not taking me to the Heavenly Realm?"
"Don't take that kind of thing seriously. There is no such thing as Heaven or Hell in this world. I don't believe it, do you?"
"... I am, after all, a Valkyrie of Schicksal, the largest religious force in the West."
Kallen said speechlessly.
At this moment, Bai Ge and she were wearing hooded cloaks, covering their overly conspicuous appearances and hair, and were strolling through the market extremely leisurely.
Bai Mouren was very interested in this medieval market, and Kallen had now become his tour guide. Therefore, from a certain perspective, this could already be considered a date.
(Otto, be strong, keep your hat on)
"A Valkyrie of Schicksal, heh~ Do you still want to continue disguising yourself? You should be able to feel that I am someone from the outside, and I have no malice towards you."
"... Alright, it is indeed as you said. If you had malice towards me, I would have already started reincarnating by now. Anyway, let's introduce ourselves. Hello, outsider."
Kallen took a deep breath and looked directly at Bai Ge.
"I am the virtual personality of Kallen Kaslana."
"Sure enough, you've awakened self-consciousness."
Although he knew it beforehand, Bai Ge still couldn't help but be surprised. Before his eyes was a virtual personality possessing all the memories and feelings of Kallen Kaslana.
For example, she was now similar to the memory-body Flame-Chasers in the Elysian Realm in the original plot.
But she shouldn't have had a self; she was just an existence that faithfully played the role of "Kallen Kaslana" in this virtual world according to the program's orders.
However, such a person, because of a miracle probability that was probably less than one in ten million, gave birth to a true soul, a true self, and a true will.
She became an existence that, in a sense, could be said to be the true Kallen Kaslana.
(That guy 'Dog Otto' doesn't seem to know about this. If he knew, he would probably go crazy. Uh, no, it's hard to say. Perhaps in his eyes, only the saint who died five hundred years ago is the true Kallen Kaslana.)
Bai Ge muttered to himself in his heart. Although he once turned Otto Apocalypse into his puppet and knew his persistence, madness, and long-cherished wish.
But to say he understood everything about this fool, I'm afraid only Otto himself could do that in this world.
"Can you tell me about yourself? Kallen."
"... Alright."
Kallen agreed after hesitating for a moment.
The two found a deserted small alley, sat on a bench, and Kallen looked up at the fake sky, with deep fatigue and numbness in her eyes, and said bitterly.
"I can't remember which day it started. I discovered that the people around me were all performing a script that had been set long ago, and I realized that this was a fake world that kept repeating."
"In the script of this world, no matter how I struggle, I will be killed by a Honkai beast."
"And when I was killed, I would find myself back to the day before my death. Such an experience repeated over and over again, and I finally understood that I was just an actor in this performance."
Kallen covered her eyes with her arms, and she revealed a painful expression. This was a desperate reincarnation that no one could understand.
"How many times have you reincarnated? Have you tried to change it?"
Bai Ge looked at Kallen with pity and put an apple he had just bought on the side of the road into her hand.
"How many times? I can't remember. Probably... tens of thousands of times. As for struggling, of course I have."
Kallen looked at the apple in her hand and sighed. Of course, she had tried to change her destiny. In these tens of thousands of reincarnations, she had done everything she could do.
"According to the development set by this world, tomorrow I will be taken to the execution ground, and at the moment I am about to be executed, the city will riot, and a large number of Honkai beasts imprisoned under the church will be released by Otto."
"He hopes that I can take advantage of the chaos caused by the Honkai beasts killing civilians and leave Schicksal with him."
"And I will firmly reject his invitation, fight to protect the people, and finally die at the hands of a Honkai beast."
Kallen said, touching her stomach. The ending of every reincarnation was that she was killed by that Honkai beast, and the sharp claws would pierce her abdomen and take her life. ===== CHAPTER 1000 =====
