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

"I'll go tell the senior doctor this first! I'm off, doctor!"

Mashu waved goodbye to Romani and then ran towards Fujimaru Ritsuka's room.

Seeing this, Romani waved goodbye to Mashu.

Romani did not choose to tell Mashu the information he received in the chat group because he felt it was better to bear these things himself.

Moreover, even if we were to tell them this news, it wouldn't be now. After all, telling everyone these things now would only increase their sadness and damage their morale.

Therefore, Romani doesn't want to tell anyone until there's a perfect solution to the problem. Of course, he won't hide anything when necessary, since everyone has the right to know, but for now, he'll just bear it himself.

After scratching his head with a wry smile, the man returned to his usual optimistic demeanor, as if he had never known about the incident.

After that, Romani wandered aimlessly around Chaldea, looking left and right as if it were his first time there.

But it was as if he wanted to imprint every place here in his mind. So, the man would stop for a while after walking a few steps. In the end, Romani finally explored all of Chaldea.

"...Let's go back and eat strawberry cake."

After saying a sentence in a slightly lighthearted tone, Romani turned and left.

However, compared to his lighthearted tone, the man's shoulders seemed to carry a heavier weight, and his back view appeared quite lonely.

...On the other side, St. Freya Academy.

"Hey! Auntie, what brings you here?!"

In the living room, Kiana quickly threw down the game controller in her hand, grabbed the book next to her, and pretended to be studying.

After all, if Auntie finds out that I'm not doing my homework and only playing games, I'm probably doomed. My game console might be confiscated.

But shouldn't Aunt Flo be in the office organizing documents at this time? How come she has time to come here? Kiana was puzzled and continued to pretend to read.

"What, can't I come?"

Theresa looked at Kiana with a displeased expression.

"No, no, no, no! Of course I can come, of course I can come!!"

Seeing Theresa's man-eating appearance, Kiana quickly waved her hand to indicate that she was always welcome.

"Alright, alright, I'm the one who invited Dean Theresa, and of course, Teacher Himeko too. Let's all have a good get-together tonight, and I'll cook some delicious food."

Seeing this, Mei, who was standing nearby, also smiled and came out to explain.

"Yay! There's something delicious to eat!"

Upon hearing that there was something delicious to eat, Kiana jumped three feet high, inadvertently throwing the book she was holding away.

However, the book was thrown with some skill, and it hit Bai Mo, who had just come out of the room.

"Oh no, this is bad."

Seeing Bai Mo hit by the book, Kiana knew something was wrong and quickly ran over to apologize.

"Sigh, be more careful next time."

Seeing Kiana running towards him, Bai Mo sighed and said softly.

"This was an accident!! An accident!"

Seeing that Bai Mo was alright, Kiana scratched her head awkwardly.

Then, Bai Mo noticed Theresa changing her shoes and greeted her.

"Good evening, Dean Theresa."

Good evening, Bai Mo. Are you settling into your new environment?

When Bai Mo greeted her, Theresa smiled and responded in kind.

"Everyone took good care of me, and I didn't feel uncomfortable at all."

Bai Mo shook his head, and then talked to Theresa about some things in life.

…………

After some time, Himeko returned to the dormitory, carrying several bottles of alcohol, seemingly planning to have a good drink that night.

"Oh, sorry, sorry, I was late because of traffic tonight, but I bought some alcohol, let's drink as much as we want tonight!"

Ji Zi shook the wine in her hand and said with a smile.

"Sigh, Himeko, you should just shut up."

Theresa felt a headache coming on as soon as she saw the wine in Himeko's hand, since Himeko was particularly troublesome when she was drunk.

Besides Theresa, Kiana and Mei also twitched their lips when they saw Himeko's expression. Bronya was probably speechless too, but she just couldn't show it.

Bai Mo didn't care. After all, even if he got drunk, he could just sleep it off. As for acting crazy while drunk, Bai Mo really didn't know what he might do.

Is it really that terrifying? Bai Mo couldn't help but wonder, looking at the twitching corners of everyone's mouths.

However, Bai Mo soon witnessed the power of Ji Zi's drunkenness. While others might just act crazy when drunk and eventually fall asleep, Ji Zi was different!

Himeko gets more and more excited when she's drunk. She can even drag you into drinking with her until you're all drunk. After she's made sure everyone is completely drunk, she just falls asleep without caring about anything else.

Fortunately, everyone was used to this kind of thing, and when faced with Himeko forcibly making them drink, they only took a small sip and then secretly spat it out.

As for Bai Mo, it was his first time drinking and he was inexperienced, so he got a little tipsy, but he still managed to stay rational.

"Since everyone is happy today, let me tell you a story!"

Seeing that everyone was happy today, Bai Mo picked up his water glass and said.

"A story? What story?"

Theresa, who was standing to the side, said in confusion, and the others also looked at Bai Mo.

"Oh, it's just a really heartwarming story!"

Seeing everyone's bewildered and ignorant expressions, Bai Mo smiled maliciously.

"The story of a man who lived alone for 500 years in order to resurrect his beloved."

Chapter Thirty-One Otto

...............

"So, did that Valkyrie named Kallen die like that?"

"What happened to that man named Otto, who was also like Grandpa?"

After listening to Bai Mo finish the first part of the story, Theresa and Kiana hurriedly asked questions.

At the same time, there were a few tears glistening in the corners of their eyes. After all, this story was just too heartwarming, and of course, so were Bronya and Mei.

"Yes, the Valkyrie named Kallen died at the hands of the Honkai Beasts while protecting the people."

"Later, a man named Otto took over the position of Archbishop of Destiny after Karen's death."

Bai Mo shook his head.

"And then what happened? Tell me quickly what happened next. Didn't Otto live for five hundred years?"

Theresa said eagerly.

"Don't rush, don't rush, let me explain in detail."

Bai Mo took a deep breath, then recalled the original plot and prepared to speak. However, Bai Mo still planned to make some modifications, otherwise it wouldn't make sense, since he couldn't go into too much detail.

"In the days that followed, a man named Otto searched for a way to revive Kallen."

"He searched and searched until one day, by some chance, the man came into contact with the god of this world. So, the man devoutly asked the god how to resurrect Karen."

"As for the man's question, God did not answer. He simply smiled and then took out a dagger and plunged it into his own heart."

"Did God not want to answer this question, and then commit suicide?"

After hearing Bai Mo's words, Mei asked in confusion.

"Isn't God supposed to be omnipotent? How can this be?"

Kiana said indignantly.

"At the time, Otto did not understand why God would do this. He just thought that God did not want to answer his question. After all, to God, humans were just lowly ants and would not care about the wishes of ants at all."

Without answering their questions, Bai Mo continued.

"But after this incident, the man was not discouraged. Instead, he became even more determined to revive Kallen and devoted himself to it with all his might."

"At the same time, the man also wanted to see God again through his own efforts and ask Him why He did this."

"If even God couldn't resurrect Kallen, how did Otto manage to carry out this plan?"

Theresa looked at Bai Mo with a puzzled expression.

"There are too many things involved here, because Otto even conducted human experiments in order to revive Kallen, and there were things like using Kallen's DNA to create clones."

"Human experimentation and human cloning are illegal, aren't they?"

Kiana exclaimed.

“For Otto, Kallen was everything. He would do anything to revive her. He even became the Bishop of Destiny simply because he felt it would be more effective in carrying out his plan.”

Bai Mo shrugged.

"Can loving someone really go to this extent?"

Mei lowered her head, lost in thought.

Bronya thought that this man named Otto was very selfish.

Bronya spoke up from the side.

“That’s right, the man named Otto is extremely selfish, the kind of selfish that can’t be more selfish.”

"However, despite his human experimentation and illegal activities such as cloning, it is undeniable that during Otto's tenure as Bishop of Destiny, he also used the organization to do many commendable things, protecting many people and families, and even giving many people hope for survival."

"Although these are all byproducts of the premise of reviving Kallen."
