What?! You want me to be the Herrscher of the End?!

... on the other side

In the noisy hall, Bai Mo, who had just completed the relevant procedures and obtained his train ticket, left directly.

"By the way, Aqi, why did you buy two tickets by yourself? Is there some special meaning behind it?"

Holding the ticket with the word "Elysia" printed on it in her left hand, Elysia blinked curiously.

Actually, she had wanted to ask this question when Bai Mo was buying the tickets, but she didn't say it because it wasn't convenient at the time.

"It has a special meaning...of course it does!"

"After all, a lovely and beautiful pink fairy lady has been accompanying me throughout this journey, so this can be considered proof of her existence~"

"Besides, a certain lovely fairy lady has no way to get out of here right now."

Faced with Alicia's question, Bai Mo simply smiled and patted his chest, the meaning of which was self-evident.

"Wow! I didn't expect Aqi to care about me so much. How about I give you a reward, you lovely fairy lady?"

After hearing Bai Mo's words, Alicia was in a great mood, and the smile on her lips was almost overflowing.

Bai Mo, who was used to Alicia's behavior, wasn't buying it, so she immediately refused Alicia's reward.

"Rewards...aren't you just trying to take advantage, Ellie? That's why I won't fall for it. Besides, I'll ask you for those so-called rewards after you come out that day, Ellie! Don't worry! I won't forget!"

You little punk, do you think I don't know your little tricks? All you know is how to take advantage of me and call it a reward!

After saying that, Bai Mo smiled smugly.

After all, she had spent a long time with Alicia, so Bai Mo said she was already very familiar with the methods of this kind of lesbian leader!

Just wait and see. The day this wicked woman separates from my body, Bai Mo will definitely turn the tables and take control!

Also! Please have someone type "Never be a slave to the end!!!" in the chat!

"Hmph, that's quite a bold statement, but it might be acceptable if it were Aqi?"

Seeing Bai Mo's smug expression, Alicia smiled and teased him, but that didn't mean she was going back on her word.

After all, won't we all be the ones who benefit in the end?!

So it doesn't matter, it doesn't matter at all~~ Everyone just makes a tiny profit.

...After a period of time

"Oh, right! When you were buying the tickets, Aqi, I noticed that your three friends from St. Freya Academy seemed to be on the tour itinerary as well..."

"Hmm...I remember their names are Kiana, Bronya, and Raiden Mei, right?"

Playing around as they pleased, after teasing Bai Mo a little, Alicia told her about her discovery.

After all, it seems that Bai Mo didn't notice this small detail.

As expected, Bai Mo, who had clearly not paid attention to this news, was immediately distraught after hearing it from Alicia!

After all, Alicia would never tease her with such a question, so this news must be true.

"What! Shouldn't they be in St. Freya? Why would they come all the way to a place like this?"

"Could it be that Theresa took pity on the academy and gave them a holiday? Or... has Schicksal also taken notice of the situation here...?"

Shocked, Bai Mo came to these two conclusions after a brief moment of thought. Of course, the first conclusion was impossible. The only certainty was that Destiny had also noticed what was happening in the town of Kroka, which was why Theresa had sent people to investigate.

After all, the headquarters of Destiny is probably still rebuilding the airport and reinforcing its outer defenses right now...

"This is troublesome... At the very least, I shouldn't be taking the bus looking like this anymore."

After thinking for a while, Bai Mo touched her cheek. Yes, Bai Mo had not changed her appearance at this moment, so if she wanted to take the bus to Kroka Town, she would have to change her appearance.

She couldn't use her own face, nor could she use Alicia's. After all, she had gone to the Schicksal headquarters a few days ago with Alicia's face, so in order not to attract Schicksal's attention, she had to change to a face that no one had ever seen before.

"Hmm... whose face should I use? It would be great if I could customize the face..."

"How about trying out Möbius's look? That would be so much fun!"

Similarly, Alicia, who knew about Bai Mo's troubles, also came up with a suggestion, which of course included a little bit of her own mischief.

After all, Alicia had wanted to dress up Mebius in a little dress for a long time, so if Bai Mo were to have Mebius's face, she couldn't imagine whether she would be treated like a dress-up doll, even though she had experienced it many times before.

"No, no! Ellie, stop messing around!"

"Okay~ How about we consider Little Paddo?"

"Padma... so I don't have heterochromatic eyes either, does that mean I have to wear colored contact lenses? No way..."

Bai Mo shook her head like a rattle drum, and colored contact lenses really weren't suitable for her, since wearing them always hurt her eyes.

"That little Gretchen!"

"No, no! That's too strange!"

"Eden! I'm sure Eden would be very happy to agree!"

"Hey, Sister Eden... but let's forget about this outfit... I don't have the right style..."

After thinking it over, Bai Mo decided not to tarnish the reputation of that big star.

However, after going through this whole process, it seems like I've almost run out of faces I can change to.

This isn't suitable, that won't do, she thought and thought until her head was about to explode.

"Ugh..."

Helpless, she sighed. Fortunately, Bai Mo's idea was not in vain. Soon, a bold idea appeared in her mind!

Suddenly, as if she had just had a sudden epiphany, she shouted with joy!

"I've got it! To match the cherry blossom white hair color! I know what to use! Hehehe!"

With cherry-white hair and a face no one has ever seen before, she is also a lively and cute girl, and she also uses a longbow as her weapon!

It's you I've chosen! A fateful entanglement! No, it's March 7th!

"March 7th? Just from the name, she sounds like a very cute girl!"

Chapter 163 The Mercenaries of Kroca Town

"Hmm! It definitely looks much better this way!!"

Bai Mo, who had just changed into the appearance of March 7th, was now carefully looking at himself in the mirror.

In order to better fit the character, Bai Mo even used the Herrscher of Reason's ability to materialize a camera.

Although I'm not very good at taking photos, it's perfectly adequate as a decoration.

"What a lovely girl! This kind of Aqi is just what I like!"

Unlike Bai Mo who just looked, Alicia directly picked it up and squeezed it to test its feel.

"Alright, now we can ride the bus openly and without fear!"

Bai Mo grabbed Alicia's little hand, which was making funny faces on his face, and shook his head helplessly.

And it's also a good opportunity to check on Kiana and the others' recent condition.

Well, helping them appropriately where we can is a form of compensation, even if it's very small.

Yes, meeting Kiana and the others under these circumstances is a lucky thing, even though it's under the premise of being strangers... but Bai Mo is already very satisfied.

Turning around and looking at the inn not far behind him, Bai Mo seemed to see them in a daze, lost in thought.

Finally, it was Alicia's playful voice that pulled her back to reality.

"Don't be sad. I believe you'll be reunited with them soon, Aqi. I'm sure that day won't be too far away. Remember to introduce them to me when that time comes!"

"Of course, I mean when we both use our true identities!"

Following Bai Mo's gaze, Alicia quietly grasped the right hand beside her, as if to say, "Don't worry, I'm here with you."

The scene was incredibly heartwarming, at least that's how they both felt.

"Yes! I'll introduce you to them, Ellie! And of course, everyone from World Serpent—I won't leave anyone out!"

"Then it's a deal!"

"Yes! It's a deal!"

...On the other side, in the town of Kroca.

Inside a magnificent butler's mansion, Raven was sitting impatiently on the sofa with his legs crossed.

Those tightly closed eyes and furrowed brows unsurprisingly conveyed a message of being in a bad mood.

Around Raven, none of the dozen or so fully armed mercenaries dared to speak, fearing they might displease their captain again.

That's right, the people gathered around Raven were all members of Raven Squad, and their purpose in coming together was simply to wait for Raven's next instructions.

Time flew by, and finally, after more than half an hour of silence, someone couldn't hold back any longer and broke the awkward silence.

"Captain... We've been in this town for four days now. What are our next instructions? We're all getting moldy from staying in this dilapidated house."

"Yeah, Captain, although this trip has a lot of money, it's not really our style..."

The two leaders scratched their heads and said with wry smiles.

"How about... Captain, you ask the town mayor if we can all go outside to keep watch? That way we can at least get some fresh air."

Sure enough, as long as one person dared to step forward, the rest of the people had the courage to speak out.

So far, the number of people dissatisfied with this mission arrangement has increased to three, not to mention those who haven't spoken up yet.

After all, no one who works as a mercenary, especially one who also fights the Honkai, wants to stay put.

Moreover, these people are used to fighting against the Honkai alongside Raven, and they've done a lot of work for World Serpent, making them almost like a regular squad of World Serpent.

That's why the ravens were so excited when they told them they were going to Kroka Town on a mission to fight the Honkai. But when they arrived in Kroka Town, they didn't see a single Honkai. They were just staying in that dilapidated villa all day protecting people.

So how could they not feel frustrated? They have good guns but nowhere to shoot them, so they can only keep them as collectibles.

"Alright, I know what you're thinking. I'll discuss this with the town mayor."

Listening to the complaints from the people below, Raven slowly opened her eyes and stood up from her chair.
