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

"Hahaha, good! Now that the audience has entered, I, the genius, declare this magic show officially open!"

On the other end of the device, Velvet's tone was extremely cheerful, sweeping away her previous unhappiness. Although the venue and scale of this magic performance were small, it didn't stop her from being happy.

"cherry!"

As if giving a hint, Velvi's voice came again.

"I see."

Sakura removed her hands from the hilt of the sword, picked up the dark, box-like device with both hands, and took a few steps forward to Otto's side. "Take this," Sakura said in an unyielding tone.

And Otto, almost as if by some strange twist of fate, took the device.

He was actually quite curious about what kind of magic tricks this Vilvie, whom the Void Archives called the "Magic King of the Twilight Era," would perform.

And even if we assume the magic trick is a scam, so what? It's just a soul steel body anyway.

Well, without realizing it, Otto had developed a feeling that he was already used to being dead.

"Take care of yourself."

After completing the handover ceremony, Sakura left Durandal with these words before disappearing in an instant.

Durandal frowned, wanting to say something but not saying it.

If I were you, I wouldn't have so easily agreed to watch Vivi's magic show.

After a long while, until the device in his hand started ticking, the voice of Void Treasury suddenly rang in Otto's mind, but then there was no further sound.

Refuse to receive any messages~

After all, this is not the kind of thing to do. You really don't read any of the many documents in the library? The Moth of Fire was blown up by this lady!

VoidPlayer said he wanted to curse, but after thinking it over, watching Otto get his comeuppance seemed like a very enjoyable thing.

Well, that's exactly what it was thinking, which is why it chose not to warn Otto beforehand.

"..."

Why didn't you say so sooner? Otto suddenly felt like he'd been stabbed in the back, his face darkening.

Because at this point he made another discovery: the device seemed to be stuck to his hand, and he couldn't shake it off no matter how hard he tried.

"May I ask, if I watch this magic show, then the World Serpent can cooperate with Destiny, right?"

But he still wore a formulaic smile, and despite Velvey's inability to see, Otto asked her with extreme patience. Then, he gestured to Durandal, signaling her to leave immediately.

It seemed like a long time since he'd been tricked, and the feeling was still quite novel, so today he was determined to see what this so-called magic show was all about.

The ticking, countdown-like sound continued, but Vilvie's voice never came out of the device again.

Otto wasn't in a hurry. He would personally contact the World Serpent during the fifth Honkai, and he could also apply everything that Velvet said today.

0..9..8..3..2..1

As the countdown reached zero, the device in Otto's hand suddenly began to heat up rapidly.

"boom!"

A sound similar to an explosion did indeed occur, but... what burst out of the device was a bouquet of flowers... and the kind that looked very expensive.

Otto was speechless for a moment, not knowing what to say.

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

On the other side, on the aircraft where Sakura was.

"By the way, Vilvie, your magic performance this time... should be alright, right?"

There was no sound for a long time, which was really not in line with the style of a [magician]. Sakura couldn't help but speak to the projection of Velvet next to her.

"The magician said she connected the fuse to a bouquet of flowers, as long as Otto doesn't take the flowers..."

boom! ! !

Before the "expert" could finish speaking, a deafening explosion suddenly came from behind them.

Hmm... there's thick smoke billowing out. The area affected by the explosion... I guess that area will need to be rebuilt.

Then came the loud crash of some kind of large building falling into the sea.

Sakura glanced at it and thought, well, she really shouldn't have doubted the Magician's ways.

Chapter 310 About Cooperation

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

"Pfft, so you really blew up Otto, Vilvi!"

At this moment, Velvet and Sakura had returned to the Golden Courtyard. Bai Mo couldn't stop smiling as he listened to their teamwork.

Serves him right! Who told that old bastard to get himself wanted? Now he's really made a huge mistake!

That was so satisfying! It was so incredibly satisfying!

"Of course, how could he watch my magic show for free? He should at least charge some interest."

That's right, a third of the outermost area of ​​the subordinate regional airport was directly destroyed by the bomb, which will cost at least several billion in repair costs.

This was only because Velvet held back; otherwise, the tragedy of the Fire Moth would have been repeated one-to-one with Destiny.

"Anyway! Well done, Sister Wilvi!" Bai Mo immediately gave a thumbs up, then smiled slightly, "By the way, Sister Ying, how was it fighting against that silly goose?"

"Silly goose?" Is that referring to the girl named Durandal? Well, that's certainly a very apt name.

"As Su's chosen successor, I think she is qualified in terms of both strength and character, but... never mind."

"You just look a bit simple-minded, very straightforward, right?"

Seeing that Ying looked like she wanted to say something but didn't know what to say, Bai Mo immediately added something.

"Yes."

Sakura nodded without hesitation.

"After all, they are members of the Kaslana family; most of them are like that."

Kevin has to really take the blame for inheriting his genes from his ancestors, after all, he was exceptionally straight during his teenage years, especially in high school.

Upon hearing Bai Mo's words, both Sakura and Vervier showed expressions of surprise before slowly returning to normal.

The Kaslana family, which means they are Kevin's descendants, means that Sakura really couldn't tell from Durandal's blonde hair.

"By the way, Aqi, Otto said before we left that he would withdraw the arrest warrant for you in the next couple of days."

Suddenly remembering something, Virvi spoke up.

"Withdraw the arrest warrant? What's the point of withdrawing it now? Besides, Otto isn't exactly a saint; he must have some conditions for doing this, right?"

Despite genuinely disdaining this so-called wanted notice, Bai Mo maintained an indifferent demeanor.

However, the fact that Otto brought this up suggests either he's been scared of World Serpent and wants to back down, or he's planning something new, like cooperating with World Serpent? So, withdrawing the arrest warrant is also a gesture of goodwill?

Bai Mo, who had read the plot, knew that Otto had been coveting the "beacon" of the second divine key for a long time. The second divine key that Destiny obtained was incomplete, and its most important "beacon" was still in Kevin's hands. Without the guidance of the "beacon," the second divine key could not exert its full power.

“That’s right, and that’s what the Magician said to him back then. As for Otto’s purpose, he wanted to cooperate with our World Serpent, and said he was willing to give anything he could for it.”

To be honest, Vivi was also a little confused. After all, Destiny was a large organization that controlled the world, so why did she always feel that Destiny was something that could be discarded at any time in Otto's eyes?

Is the collaboration with World Serpent because they're eyeing its high-end combat capabilities? Aside from that, Velvey can't think of any other highlights World Serpent has to offer.

What Vervi said makes sense. After all, the current strength of the World Serpent is entirely due to the support of the Thirteen Heroes of Chasing Fire and Bai Mo. If these external factors were not present, the World Serpent might actually suffer a loss if it fought against Destiny based solely on the organization's strength.

"As expected, I knew Otto wouldn't let this opportunity slip by."

"really?"

Sakura was puzzled by what she heard, and immediately tilted her head. At the same time, Wilvi also looked at Bai Mo.

"Well, Otto wants to cooperate with the World Serpent simply to obtain the beacon of the Second Divine Key from Kevin."

Bai Mo waved his hand and then said.

It's normal that the two of them didn't know, since Bai Mo only told Alicia and Mebius about Otto.

Okay, if we're going to go all out, should we also add Kevin? And everyone from St. Freya, since I described it in the form of a story back then.

"The beacon of the Second Divine Key? What would Otto need that for?"

“He wants to reach the Tree of Imaginary Numbers,” Bai Mo replied, his expression somewhat serious, “in order to resurrect the one he loves.”

Afterwards, Bai Mo briefly explained to the two of them Otto's purpose in doing so.

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

"Deceiving the world is fun, it's so much fun!"

After a long while, having listened to Bai Mo finish explaining everything, the Magician had no choice but to applaud Otto's plan.

After all, wasn't this a magic trick that shocked the world?

Sakura didn't say much about it, but in her heart, she couldn't help but think more highly of Otto.

Throughout the entire era, even in pre-civilization times, there was no one who could do what he did.

"So, Aqi, what are you thinking?"

What Vervi was referring to was about cooperation.

"There must always be cooperation between Destiny and World Serpent. Now that Kevin is no longer carrying out the Stigmata Project, human unity is necessary."

"Although the world serpents are very powerful now, it must be said that this world is still maintained by destiny."

"Therefore, in order to fight against the Honkai, humanity must unite as one and move forward together."

"Besides, regarding Otto's plan... I've actually had a new idea recently, but I still need to discuss it with Kevin."

The World Serpent will not suffer any loss by agreeing to cooperate with Schicksal. On the contrary, humanity can use Otto's hand to disable the powers of the two Herrschers. However, Bai Mo now has a few other ideas in mind.

Otto is a rare asset to humanity. Although he committed many sins while he was alive, from a broader perspective, he and Destiny don't seem to owe humanity anything.

It would be such a pity if he died like that. After all, why can't there be a way to have the best of both worlds?
