Chapter 85 Kallen's...Relics!
[Funinga: He has always been very serious]
[Frinina: I'm so touched QAQ Otto never took this impossible goal as a joke...!]
[Ningguang: If what Miss Li Sushang said is true... has Otto really made preparations for his final plan?!]
[Tesla: Could this guy have actually found a solution?]
[Jing Yuan: Otherwise, Otto wouldn't have been able to wake Li Sushang, would he?]
[Ke Qing: It seems Otto really didn't lie to Li Sushang, did he?]
[Su Chang: And...it's obvious...Li Su Chang also really wants to witness this moment, right?]
Durandal: But there must be a reason to stop His Holiness the Archbishop, right?
[Einstein: As Ms. Li Sushang said, innocent people will be implicated, just like what happened with the Herrscher of the Void...]
Theresa: Will many more people suffer undeserved misfortune...?
With Li Sushang's words.
The atmosphere in the chat group became tense.
The two people in the picture, Durandal and Durandal, also seemed to be deep in thought.
For them
Although they were Valkyries of Destiny, they meticulously carried out Otto's orders.
But at the moment.
Otto was indeed planning something far-reaching for this crazy scheme.
They also had reasons to stop Otto.
And at the same time.
When Amber saw Theresa in the town, she bowed respectfully.
"Ah, Lady Theresa, you've come at the perfect time. I was just looking for you."
"Looking for me? What's up?"
"Actually... there's something I'd like to ask Lady Theresa for a favor."
"It's my grandfather... what is he planning to do now?"
Theresa sighed, looking somewhat helpless. "737."
But Amber shook her head.
"No, Lady Theresa, this is my personal request."
"Huh, is that so?"
"Well, I'd like to trouble Lady Theresa to help me find something."
"That's no problem... I happen to have some time right now anyway. But... Amber, please stop calling me 'adult' all the time..."
"Huh? But... you've already been designated by Lord Otto as the next bishop... and..."
"Sigh... I know about these things in public, but in private, I still hope that you, Amber, don't have to be so reserved."
Theresa said somewhat awkwardly.
Then he looked intently at Amber's face, feeling a pang of nostalgia.
"Have you forgotten? Back when we were all at headquarters, I used to pester Amber to take me out to play all the time!"
"When I'm unhappy, isn't it always Amber who's there for me?"
Amber remained silent for a moment.
The voice also became much softer.
“I also remember... it was you who disregarded Lord Otto’s orders and insisted on keeping me alive in that experiment.”
"Hmm... I don't agree with Grandpa's approach, and I would never hurt someone for such a trivial reason."
Amber nodded
"Back then, A-303 and A-310 had no names and had never seen the outside world."
"Yeah! Thinking about it, we've really changed a lot. By the way, according to the numbering system, Amber, you should actually be considered my older sister, right?"
Theresa smiled brightly.
His tone conveyed a genuine feeling.
This warmed Amber's heart, but she still subconsciously reminded him...
"Lady Theresa, androids don't seem to have a concept of birthdays."
"Oh dear, I told you not to call me that! Although I hate Grandpa's methods and plan to reform the system of destiny in the future—"
"But Amber, I hope that we can still be like before, without too many barriers between us."
Faced with Theresa's genuine feelings.
Amber said softly
"...I understand, but please give me some more time. I'm not... quite used to it yet..."
"Hmm...that takes time! But, after all this talking, what exactly is it that you want me to help you find?"
"It is a relic of Saint Karen Kaslana."
"Karen...Kaslana...?"
Theresa was also taken aback.
“That’s right, it’s the Karen that Lord Otto mentioned, the Karen from whom our genes originate.”
“In the early archives of Destiny, I read a record about that saintess.”
"The record says that before she was hanged, she left behind a memento that she intended to entrust to Lord Otto."
"But at that time, the Mandate of Heaven regime was unstable, and various forces were vying for power, so this relic changed hands many times..."
"Ultimately, he disappeared without a trace."
Whether in letters written to the first Walter.
Still in conversation with other people.
In repeated experiments.
Every time a collapse occurs!
No matter when or where, you could hear Otto murmuring the name of the saintess, Karen Kaslana!
And Karen...
However, he didn't get to have many scenes in Otto's life...
It's truly heartbreaking.
"Back to the matter itself, the last time this saint's relic appeared in history was at an auction held at the Edelweiss Lounge in 1478."
"The old site of the Edelweiss Lounge...I remember it was located in the town where we are now."
"If Amber can't get away for the time being, I'll come back to find you after I find a clue, okay?"
"Then I'll have to trouble you, Lady Theresa."
talking.
Theresa and Amber parted ways.
But not long after.
Theresa found some clues through the time-space disturbances in the town!
The saint's relics.
It was purchased by Baron Basil, a newly promoted nobleman at the time!
Because she didn't understand it very well, Theresa called back Amber.
They also learned that the baron's residence was located on a hillside not far away.
Suddenly.
The two then hurried to the location.
finally!
Amidst everyone's anticipation.
The two of them finally found a neglected box among the lost nobleman's assets!
A rustic yet exquisite wooden box!
And this...
Could it be the saintess's relics?!
Theresa opened the wooden box herself.
All the audience's attention was inevitably drawn to it.
Inside the box.
Two unique objects lay quietly, along with some miscellaneous items.
"It looks like a letter, and a... airplane model??"
In the pure white space.
Karen looked at the wooden crate on the screen.
Looking inside the wooden crate... familiar objects.
A hint of dazedness crept into his expression.
It feels like... I left this letter just yesterday.
It all seems like it just happened a short while ago.
But Karen knew...
For Otto... it has been a full five hundred years... five hundred years of searching and waiting.
And now.
Otto stood before this final door.
I've never been closer to her before!
And in the picture.
When Theresa opened the envelope, there were only two thin pieces of paper inside.
He handed the letter to Amber.
But once the latter opened it, he immediately realized that it was by no means an ordinary suicide note.
Thank you for visiting me today, and thank you for the wine you brought.
But...I'm sorry, I can't accept the choice you've offered me.
"I've tried, Otto. I've tried many paths, tried to reverse this unfair reality, and tried to uphold the justice in my heart."
But Otto...we were ultimately too naive, too weak...
So naive as to be used as a pawn by those cunning old men without realizing it, so weak as to be unable to change this wretched world even with all one's might.
Otto, do you remember our first Phantom Thief mission?
We were so content back then, as if we could solve all the problems in the world.
That was the happiest time of Karen Kaslana's life.
[And soon after that, we came across a wall.]
This wall, built of desire and bound together by self-interest, rises from the depths of hell, tearing the world of good people to pieces.
