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

"Alright, the mystery has now been solved. I know you two still have many questions, but let's discuss those after we finish talking about the important matters."

After saying that, Bai Mo ignored their reactions and handed the stage back to Kevin, allowing them to have a final discussion before she could reveal her long-planned scheme.

Now, she has to explain to Eden what exactly she meant by "failing to save someone in distress."

It's been so long since that happened! Why are you still concerned about this, Eden?!

Yes, just as Bai Mo was speaking, Eden's grip on her tightened little by little, clearly wanting an explanation from Bai Mo.

So, out of desperation, Bai Mo had no choice but to follow Eden a little further away and then recount the events of that time in detail.

Although it was a belated expression of concern, it still felt very nice.

Chapter 329 Rewinding Time / The Herrscher Independent of the Tree

Under Yulandel's sharp gaze, Bai Mo slowly sat down in his seat.

The confrontation between Kevin and Otto has come to an end. The former made his promise without hesitation, while the latter got the beacon of the second Divine Key as he wished.

Now that the negotiations between the two parties have been completed, Bai Mo is ready to explain his plan to Otto in detail.

A plan that can save—no, to be precise, resurrect most people and make up for many regrets!

After all, since the Tree of Imaginary Numbers can be reached there, why should we only attempt it once? Wouldn't that be a waste in every sense of the word?

Bai Mo crossed his arms and rested his chin on them, looking at Otto who was clearly getting restless, and then said, "Sorry to keep you waiting, so let's begin now!"

"Of course, I would appreciate it if Miss Asura could enlighten me on the specific implementation plan and steps."

At this moment, Otto was more like a scholar thirsting for knowledge, completely setting aside his pride and seeking advice from Bai Mo.

As if nothing had just happened, the two of them put aside those insignificant things at that moment.

This is why Otto calls Bai Mo "Aslachi" instead of just "Bai Mo"; after all, in his eyes, the two names have different meanings.

"My plan is very simple, or rather, it is the product of some modifications I made to your plan."

As Bai Mo spoke, everyone in this illusory space subconsciously lowered their breathing, especially Otto, who was afraid of missing any important details.

However, after hearing Bai Mo say that her plan was a product of modifications based on his own plan, Otto couldn't help but ask, "What do you mean by that?"

"It's very simple. To revive Kallen, we must reach the Imaginary Tree. No matter how the plan changes, this is something that must be done."

"Your original plan was simply to use that authority and power to find the time when Kallen died after arriving at the Imaginary Tree, and then create a fork in the road as time moves forward, giving and creating a possibility, namely a parallel world."

"What I need to do is to rewind time on the Tree of Imaginary Numbers! Rewind time to five hundred years ago!"

Bai Mo spoke with absolute certainty, his words catching everyone present, except Kevin, off guard.

"Rewind time?"

Otto's face, which had been filled with confusion, was now etched with shock.

Want to rewind time? That's even harder than creating a world, since almost none of the known beings in the world possess the concept of manipulating time. Even if he makes a deal with the Honkai consciousness to obtain the power of a false god, he still won't have that power.

So this goes without saying that Bai Mo wanted to apply a time reversal state to the Imaginary Tree.

But before Otto could refute him, Bai Mo continued speaking.

"Yes, I will intervene with my own existence at that time, walk back in reverse at the crossroads where time extends forward, and then use my own power to preserve Karen's soul at the moment of her death."

"This approach is the safest and will not alter any timeline or cause historical disorder. After all, in a sense, Karen did die in that timeline, and I only saved her just before her soul dissipated."

Bai Mo explained in detail, since she couldn't go back in time to directly change what happened on that timeline, so she could only settle for this method.

"A crazy plan."

Durandal commented, and Eden, who had been standing behind Bai Mo, couldn't help but worry.

After all, Bai Mo's approach means that she will have to travel through the river of time for five hundred years, a process that will be lonely and even carries the risk of getting lost in it.

However, it must be said that if this method is feasible, then without a doubt, the girl named Kallen Kaslana will be truly resurrected. And at the moment of resurrection, it will only be a blink of an eye for Kallen Kaslana. But before that, someone will have to spend five hundred years for her, even though that only takes a few seconds in real time.

Another question is, does Aqi really have the power to turn back time?

For a moment, not only Eden, but even Otto couldn't help but think this way.

The plan's content and implementation are indeed very detailed, but to achieve this, you need to have the capability; otherwise, it's all just empty talk.

At least for now, no one seems to have seen any power over time in Bai Mo.

Even if she is a Herrscher, she is only a Herrscher with the powers of Void, Consciousness, Wind, Death, and Reason. Oh, and we also have to count the power of Ice that she hasn't had time to absorb yet.

Moreover, as a Herrscher, one's very existence is that of a slave to the Imaginary Tree, and one does not possess the power to manipulate the Imaginary Tree.

Thinking of this, Otto's hopeful eyes immediately dimmed again.

Bai Mo noticed the changes in the group and asked with a wry smile, "What? Judging from your expressions, you don't quite believe that I have the power to manipulate time?"

In response to Bai Mo's question, the group all nodded.

But there were still some sensible people on the field. Before Bai Mo could even explain, Kevin pondered and said, "She has the ability. I can guarantee that."

Kevin's words were like a reassuring pill, echoing in this illusory space.

"Kevin...you."

Eden looked over in confusion, unsure of what Kevin meant by those words.

"But Miss Asura is essentially a Herrscher, and Herrschers are limited by the Imaginary Tree and cannot manipulate it."

But Otto immediately countered.

"Wrong! Absolutely wrong!"

In response, Bai Mo shook his finger and said loudly.

"???"

"Because although I am a Herrscher, I am not bound by the Imaginary Tree. In other words, I am a Herrscher independent of the tree."

"Otherwise, why do you think I'm saying all this? Do you think I don't know that Herrschers, restricted by the Imaginary Tree, cannot manipulate it? Please, I still have a brain."

After saying that, Bai Mo didn't forget to give Otto a disdainful look.

Chapter 330 Bai Mo: Find a way to put my invincible Dr. Mei on the list!

"A Herrscher independent of the Tree of Imaginary Numbers?!"

This was the first time Otto had ever heard of a Herrscher being independent of the Imaginary Number, and for a moment Otto felt his head was spinning.

After all, this argument is simply too unreasonable. If you are not restricted by the Tree of Imaginary Numbers, then where does your power come from?

Born naturally? Self-contained?

Otto shook his head, but he only expressed his doubts without questioning it.

After all, the shock that the other party brought to him today was simply too great, especially with Kevin's endorsement.

He couldn't fathom why Bai Mo would try to deceive him. After all, he had already reached an agreement with World Serpent, and the other party needed his power to fight against the Honkai. It was a win-win situation.

Bound by "interests," no one can break their oath! Moreover, these so-called interests belong to the human race in the world.

When it comes to saving humanity, World Serpent will not back down, and when it comes to Kallen, it will not turn back. Therefore, from the moment this cooperation was agreed upon, the alliance between Schicksal and World Serpent has been incredibly strong.

Moreover, if this plan succeeds, then his Kallen will return to this world and come back to his side!

Even though he has committed many sins, as long as Karen comes back, whether he is judged or hated by Karen, he will accept it with a clear conscience and will atone for his sins in the way agreed upon by both parties.

After all, this is what Kallen would want to see. He would do anything for Kallen!

And by then, little Theresa will probably have another grandmother.

Thinking of this, Otto couldn't help but laugh out loud; it was the first time in so many years that he had laughed so happily.

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

"Aqi, do you know the consequences of what you've done?"

On the other hand, unlike Otto's excitement and joy, Eden's heart was filled with worry.

She couldn't help with this plan, nor could she stop it, but she just couldn't bear to let Bai Mo walk alone for five hundred years in the long river of time.

"Don't worry, Sister Eden. This is the path I chose, and I will definitely continue on it. Only in this way can I have the opportunity to save her/them and make up for the regrets of the past."

"This world has never been beautiful; tragedies happen all the time. But when we have the power, we can change it, make amends, and transform this imperfect world into the way we want it to be."

Bai Mo turned around and embraced Eden, smiling as he whispered in her ear.

"Her/them?"

Eden frowned slightly, catching certain key words in Bai Mo's words.

At the same time, Kevin, Otto, and Durandal, who also noticed this, looked over in confusion.

"Yes, it's her/them. After all, it's a rare opportunity, and if possible, I want to make up for as much of the regrets as possible."

"Does Miss Asura mean there are still people you want to resurrect?"

Otto looked somewhat surprised, but that's understandable; after all, if you had the ability, who wouldn't want to resurrect more people they care about?

“Yes, for example, Cecilia Shaniat from the current civilization, Raven’s brother.” As he said this, Bai Mo glanced at Durandal, seemingly unintentionally. Under the latter’s questioning gaze, Bai Mo counted on his fingers, “And Dr. Mei from the previous civilization era, Senior Hen, Ms. Blanca, Miss Desdobia, in short, everyone from the Firemoth. If I have the ability, I will definitely bring her/them back.”

Of course, Bai Mo didn't know if she could carry so many souls through the river of time, but as long as it was within her power, she would definitely do her best!

After all, even if I can't do it myself, there's still Otto. If all else fails, I can ask him to share some of the power of the false god with me. At that time, the power of the Herrscher within me will definitely be greatly enhanced. I can still manage to rescue a few people from the tree.

It's just a matter of traveling through the river of time for 50,000 years. With the help of the pseudo-god's power, accelerating the process will be a piece of cake!

"Don't worry, Miss Asura, if you wish, I will do my best to help you."

Despite their differing philosophies, they ultimately converged. At this moment, when Otto looked at Bai Mo, he seemed more like a "fellow traveler."

"..."

At this moment, Kevin's feelings were incredibly complicated, especially when he heard that Bai Mo wanted to revive Mei.

What kind of feeling was that? It was something that couldn't be expressed in words. Whether it was excitement or joy, at that moment, Kevin's feelings were like riding a roller coaster, instantly transporting him back to 50,000 years ago.

He never imagined he would be where he is today, that he would be able to see Mei again.

Even when Bai Mo liberated the Paradise of the Past, he never had such a thought. Of course, from today onwards, the seed of this wish may be planted deep in his heart.

"Thanks..."
