To create Honkai Impact 3rd in a world where Kallen exists.

"Your last two times... never mind," Karen shook her head, not pressing the matter further.

For Rita, who always has a 100% mission completion rate, these two missions were not ideal, and she was always on the verge of making mistakes.

The next key question was, "Was the Tranquility Gem retrieved?"

Rita was somewhat embarrassed. For a perfectionist maid, this was clearly a major stain on her life, and she didn't know how to explain it.

But he still replied, "Yes, the gem has been brought back. Should I take it back to the Destiny Headquarters immediately?"

"No need, just leave it to Luo Mo," Karen said calmly.

Rita's expression froze for a moment, but she didn't refute it. "Yes, Your Excellency."

Then he bowed slightly, his eyes filled with uncertainty.

She sighed. Today was another day of failure. Fortunately, she saw Lady Durandal's worried expression at the end, which gave her a final bit of comfort!

...

Seeing Cocolia's mother arrested, Bronya came to say her final goodbye, whispering, "Mom, Bronya will rescue Seele."

"I hope so. It all depends on you," Cocolia said, her former radiance gone after being imprisoned. Her eyes were somewhat dejected, but she remained resolute.

“Help take care of the children in those orphanages. They did nothing wrong, and all the actions were directed by me.”

"What about those radical anti-entropy members?"

Cocolia said calmly, "Adults should be responsible for their own actions, and that naturally includes me!"

"Mom...do you regret saving Bronya back then? Without you, Bronya wouldn't be alive today." After a moment of trepidation, she lowered her head and asked this question.

"...Bronya, no matter what, I will never regret saving you in the snow,"

She said, her eyes filled with encouragement and relief, a complex and unfathomable look, "You are my pride!"

Bronya remained silent, walked out the door, and looked at the dazzling night sky.

She hesitated for a moment, then picked up her phone.

Alloy Cloth Wolf Fang: The Tranquil Gem, Bronya has already brought it. When will Seele's matter be resolved?

I'm a good boss: Now that the gem issue is resolved, wait for my news tomorrow.

Alloy Cloth Wolf Fang: Do we need to prepare anything else?

I'm a good boss: You should get some rest and be in good shape tomorrow.

Alloy Cloth Wolf Fang: Then... what about Cocolia's mother?

I am a good boss: Destiny has decided to hand her over to Anti-Entropy for handling; she will be resolved internally by Anti-Entropy.

Bronya understood what he meant and stopped thinking about Cocolia's mother.

She took a deep breath, her face unusually tense, clenching and unclenching her fists several times, her palms sweaty.

Seele... Bronya, I'll be coming to find you soon!

...

In the room, Luo Mo looked at the latest news about Bronya and closed his eyes slightly.

He still hadn't figured out how to deal with Cocolia.

Unlike Celine, she is an adult with a complete mind and thinking ability, and she needs to be responsible for her actions.

The best way he could think of was to hand it over to Anti-Entropy as in the original story, but that would only be a form of escapism, a power struggle between higher-ups.

He knew perfectly well that Cocolia would not receive the punishment she deserved for her actions, even if she paid a price that ordinary people could not imagine.

In this world, Cocolia did not use the chip to forcibly control Bronya, so she did not turn against her mother.

Don't be fooled by Bronya's actions against her mother; it was simply her way of protecting her as much as possible.

Luo Mo shook his head. In this broken world, he hadn't yet found a good way out.

Good and evil... should not be judged by oneself.

In this world, people are not divided into good and evil, but only have different opposing positions.

Distinguishing solely by good and bad is too absolute and loses its fairness; good and bad, kindness and evil, are relative.

Absolute black and white no longer exist; instead, there are gray areas of varying degrees.

He sighed and began preparing for tomorrow's operation. He had already reported the operation to Karen.

Luo Mo told her that this was the only way to overcome the collapse.

This is a lie, but also the truth.

"Human, what are you thinking about?" Yuexia asked, looking up after taking a bath. Luo Mo liked the scent of the shower gel on his body and couldn't help but want to get closer.

"I'm thinking... humans are such contradictory creatures."

Luo Mo said something inexplicably, and rubbed his white hair under the moonlight, which was exceptionally smooth.

Chapter 43 Everything is Ready

"I don't understand... My sister goes to bed so early, and she still wants me to sleep at the same time as her. Doesn't she know... vampires are nocturnal creatures?"

He said dejectedly under the moonlight, pouting, looking somewhat unhappy.

"Heh, but you're not a vampire anymore! Alright, Moonlight, go to sleep!"

Luo Mo chuckled and pushed her upstairs.

"Human, won't you keep me company?" Yuexia turned her head to look back, revealing a pitiful expression.

She's so cute! I really want to agree to any of her requests! But I stopped myself before Luo Mo regained consciousness.

He smiled wryly as he said goodbye. He didn't want to give Theresa a surprise when she returned that night, or perhaps a shock?

Goodnight, moonlight!

"Alright, goodnight, humans!"

...

Early in the morning,

After resting, Luo Mo saw Fu Hua outside holding a bottle, frowning as she looked at it. Inside, a gem shone brightly, with black and white constantly flowing across its surface.

"...This is...the Tranquility Gem?" Luo Mo curiously touched the bottle.

Fu Hua nodded and said, "His Holiness the Bishop asked me to give this to you."

He pretended to hand the gemstone to Luo Mo, but Luo Mo waved his hands repeatedly.

"No, Fu Hua, you can take her with you. You can come along for the rest of the operation."

"Me?" Fu Hua hesitated. She had just applied to go to Taixu Mountain in Shenzhou to settle some personal matters at her former residence and with Chi You.

"Fu Hua, your comrades from the last century are there..."

Fu Hua looked at him with a puzzled expression, and after thinking for a moment, she said, "However, rather than the people in my vague memories, I want to confirm the situation of the Book of Azure Mystery and Ji Lin."

Luo Mo remained silent, looking at her with a slight melancholy, and said, "But I'm afraid of getting beaten up, Fu Hua, come with me."

"???" Fu Hua asked in confusion. Just as she was about to ask a question, a pink-haired girl appeared beside her.

"Ta-da! Missing the beautiful pink fairy lady?" Alicia suddenly popped up and said with a smile.

"Yo, Luo Mo, you're here? What, are you taking Miss Pink Fairy out to play? I've been waiting for you for ages!"

“Yes! Himeko has also settled in with Theresa,” Luo Mo nodded, pondering the loopholes in the plan. “It’s time to set off.”

"Let's go outside then. I can't wait any longer. Mei must be waiting for me already, right!?"

Alicia hummed a song as she prepared to walk forward.

"Wait, actually, I have something to discuss with Velvi and Gretchen," Luo Mo said, stopping Alicia.

"Oh dear, so you didn't just come to see Alicia? How rude of you!"

Alicia said with displeasure, then laughed, "However, Alicia forgives you. Here, these are the things they gave me. Little Gretchen is still sleeping, you know. It's not good to wake a child!"

As she spoke, she took out a blueprint and two sketches and handed them to Luo Mo.

"Come on, quickly praise this beautiful and intelligent girl—me! Hmm!?"

...

"You're finally here!" Bronya rushed forward as soon as she saw Luo Mo, her voice filled with anxiety.

She arrived at the company early to prepare for the day's events. She had barely slept a wink last night, but today she would finally see her sister!

"Oh, you must be Bronya!" Alicia's eyes lit up slightly upon seeing her. "My name is Alicia, and as you can see, I am..."

“Bronya doesn’t know you,” Bronya said, taking a step back as Alicia lunged at her.

“She’s kind of our helper!” Luo Mo coughed and said, “Let’s set off after I hand the drawings to Su Luo and the others.”

"Hey, what about the Mei you said I could see?" Alicia looked around but didn't see anyone who looked like Mei from the game.

"...If you're looking for Mei, Bronya can tell you. She tutored Kiana last night, and they're probably still in bed, right?"

Bronya said in a calm voice.

"Huh?" Miss Green Fairy asked in confusion, "I haven't joined them yet!"

(??)

Bronya gave her an expression that said, "I didn't expect this."

...

"Boss, are you going out again?" Su Luo asked, her eyes filled with distrust.

She was genuinely a little scared.

"I didn't ask you to send the game again this time." Luo Mo handed the artwork to Su Luo and quickly instructed her on today's game progress schedule.

"Oh!" Su Luo listened and nodded to show her understanding.

"So, why not let Kiana go back to St. Freya's side?" Su Luo asked, puzzled by the plot.

"Of course it's because this is a heartwarming and joyful game!" Luo Mo answered instantly, without hesitation.
