Their commission was suspicious.

"Who are you calling an old hag?" Yakumo Yukari instantly lost her composure.

"Chen Luo, just tell me, are you going to let me go or not!"

[Ding! You have a new request!]

"No," Chen Luo said decisively.

Even if someone requests permission, they won't allow it.

This was a huge commission involving 4500 raw stones, and it also included the entire Destiny. It was also the first five-star commission that Chen Luo had ever completed.

Chen Luo could offer him the highest respect—for this reason he refused requests from others.

The key issue is that Chen Luo is genuinely worried about Yakumo Yukari.

It's impossible to say that Yukari Yakumo doesn't cause trouble.

Moreover, sometimes it's not that Yakumo Yukari can't cause trouble even if she doesn't want to; sometimes trouble just ends up happening to her.

Especially the unique nature of Yukari Yakumo's ability.

"..."

“But I promised you that when we reach the next suitable world, I will try to get you an identity. If the identity is suitable, I will let you enter that world. But this one really won’t work,” Chen Luo said.

Chen Luo didn't want to add any unexpected events to this mission.

In particular, tasks related to the past are often related to the future.

"It's a deal! Anyone who goes back on their word is a little dog."

"no problem!"

Wang!

"My lady, the door." Yae Sakura pointed to the alloy door blocking the entrance.

If violence were used, Yae Sakura was afraid of hurting Kallen behind the door.

Therefore, Chen Luo was the only one who could handle the situation.

"Don't worry, I guarantee I'll get it done for you in no time."

[Ding! You have a new request!]

[A Private World for Two - Simplified Version]: At least 500 years ago, let Otto and Karen have some time alone together, and don't let that pink-haired fox come over!

Reward: 200 Primogems + Otto's Affinity +20 + [Chongxu]

Difficulty: Two stars

"..."

"Yae Sakura, let's discuss something," Chen Luo said, turning to Yae Sakura after a moment of silence.

Plans can't keep up with changes.

Chen Luo hadn't expected a commission to appear, so he could only temporarily change what was originally not a plan.

The more meticulous the plan, the easier it is to make mistakes, and the core of the plan to save Karen is Chen Luo.

So as long as Chen Luo goes, this plan can continue to be carried out no matter how it changes.

"Please speak, sir."

"Why don't you skip this rescue operation?" Chen Luo asked tentatively.

Although Chen Luo wouldn't interfere with Yae Sakura's private life, he wouldn't mind earning some extra money like this.

It was this favorability reward that really made Chen Luo lose his temper. Otto, what's the point of giving favorability points?

"What? But sir..." Upon hearing Chen Luo's words, Yae Sakura was startled and immediately became anxious.

Although Yae Sakura couldn't disobey Chen Luo's words, the problem was that Chen Luo had just said it was a discussion.

This means that Chen Luo is seeking opinions, while Yae Sakura can express hers.

"My lord, could it be that you..." But just as Yae Sakura was about to get angry, she suddenly thought of something.

Entrustment.

That's right, it's a delegation.

"Stop, Yae Sakura, don't rush, let me explain in detail. Although there is indeed a reason for the request, I still need to discuss the reasons with you," Chen Luo said frankly.

"First of all, I just went out to take a look and I did see Karen tied up in the cell. This means that she must have just had a fight with you and was captured by Schicksal. So here's my question: if you suddenly appeared in front of her, what would she think?"

"...If it were at this point in time, people would think I am the Herrscher of Corruption, returning because the seal was broken," Yae Sakura said after a moment of silence.

"So this problem is unavoidable. Of course, if you insist that I use some means to change the other person's memory and make them believe you, I can do that, but..."

"But what?" Yae Sakura pressed.

"A three-day honeymoon trip to another world," Chen Luo suddenly said.

"Huh?" Yae Sakura was taken aback.

"With me involved in this rescue operation, I can absolutely guarantee its success. Whether you go or not is no longer important; you'll just be a decorative figurehead anyway. But if you agree not to go, I can arrange for Kallen to be sent to your side for three days and personally fund your trip to another world."

"I'll choose Teyvat as the location. Whether it's Mondstadt, Liyue, or Inazuma, I can send you there. And I guarantee there will be enough Mora."

"And you've seen Otto's ending and know what he sacrificed, so you need to give him a chance to say goodbye to the past and be reborn. I also promise that Otto will not reveal that he comes from five hundred years in the future for the time being."

In fact, it wasn't that Chen Luo told Otto not to reveal that he was from 500 years in the future; rather, Chen Luo had overheard Otto intentionally concealing this fact when he peeked out just now.

Although Chen Luo didn't know what Otto was planning, it was undoubtedly a good thing.

At least it saved time and troublesome explanations.

"Ten days," Yae Sakura said calmly.

"What do you mean by asking for an exorbitant amount? Five days at most!" Chen Luo immediately denied.

"Then I'll bring my sister with me."

"no problem."

"Deal!" Yae Sakura nodded.

"...Did I agree too quickly?"

Chen Luo suddenly felt like he had been tricked by his own puppet.

Ah, never mind.

The reasons why Yae Sakura agreed to this condition were quite complicated.

Firstly, because Chen Luo himself said that he would at least give the other party some face.

Secondly, Chen Luo's words made sense. Although he himself had lived for 500 years and could understand some things, Karen had just fought a life-or-death battle with him. If he were to go and be affectionate with her now, she would definitely be uncomfortable.

So, I agreed to this request not because of Otto or Chen Luo, but more because of Karen.

But then again, let's go back and cause trouble for Otto.

He flipped the table right after he finished eating. What a jerk!

"You're the first person to bring your sister on a honeymoon without going overboard," Chen Luo complained.

"..."

"Alright, I'm going to get to work now. I'll make sure Otto doesn't do anything stupid. Shi Bao, do you want to come?" Chen Luo turned and asked.

"Can I beat up Otto when he was young?" the Herrscher of Knowledge asked eagerly.

“Well, while hitting people is wrong, it’s fine if Otto agrees,” Chen Luo said.

Since both of them are Otto, it doesn't matter whether it's the Otto of the past or the Otto of the future who agrees to let the Herrscher of Knowledge beat them up, because the result is the same anyway.

"Let's go!" Chen Luo said, beckoning to the Herrscher of Knowledge.

The one who understood the law immediately transformed into a stream of light and entered Chen Luo's sea of ​​consciousness.

After Chen Luo put the ice coffin, which Otto had personally crafted and kept in the bar, into his backpack, he simultaneously entered a stealth state and flew towards the door blocked by the alloy door.

This time, Chen Luo's infiltration into a virtual position was a feigned infiltration where even his physical form was concealed.

The ice coffin contained a replica of Kallen.

As Chen Luo flew through the door, the light from Gate 1, which had originally turned into a curtain of light, gradually faded, but a little bit of brilliance remained.

And that is proof that this door is impassable.

The invitation letter turned into a door like this: the automatic invitation mode ends after the guest arrives at the bar, while the manual invitation mode ends after Chen Luo goes to the guest's location.

Therefore, logically speaking, Chen Luo should be the last person to pass through this door.

......

"Alright, alright, great inventor, stop crying."

After a long while, Otto gradually regained his composure under Karen's gentle touch.

This was not ordinary crying, but tears of joy.

Bishop Otto, who had strived for 500 years and finally achieved his wish in an almost absurd way, would sometimes find himself unable to hold back.

"Karen, are you really not going to come with me? Right now, we can leave this cell immediately," Otto said, his voice trembling with emotion.

Logically, the best course of action would be to let Karen continue her execution and rescue her in the final moments, but Otto simply couldn't wait any longer.

Although this might slightly disrupt history, there's still Chen Luo, isn't there?

Otto believed that Chen Luo could handle it, since Chen Luo should have already obtained the copy.

Since Chen Luo is a puppeteer, once he has a clone, he can simply ask him to help him follow the original path.

Partners are just there to clean up your messes, aren't they?

Why not just take Karen out to shop until we've had our fill, then use the bar to return to reality 500 years in the future?

Although Otto had high hopes, reality was still harsh. After hearing the negative answer from Karen, Otto felt a little disappointed.

However, while feeling disappointed, there was also a sense of relief.

Ah, so this is Karen, whom I'm supposed to save. She's an idiot as always.

But only in this way can she be the Holy Maiden of Destiny in my heart.

Only now does Otto truly feel as if he has touched history.

It has to be said that Otto is quite masochistic in a certain sense.

Moreover, in Otto's eyes, Karen may have gradually become more special than a goddess and a beloved, enhanced by the passage of time.

Otto definitely likes Kallen, but now that he has actually touched Kallen again, he feels a sense of uncertainty and insecurity.

"Otto, you'd better leave quickly, through your magical... portal? Otherwise, once you attract the guards' attention, you won't be able to leave," Karen urged hurriedly.

“When the guards come back, I’ll just tell them that I broke the chains.” Karen glanced at the chains on her arms.

Otto used his golden greatsword to cut through Kallen's chains.

Then the golden greatsword transformed into the alloy door behind Otto, blocking the cloud of light.

"Sigh, how could someone with your physique break free of chains? I wonder, think of a better lie." Otto sighed.

As expected, she still can't lie.

Or perhaps you're just straightforward?

To put it more simply, he's an idiot.

"Oh no, Otto, the portal behind you has disappeared." Kallen said, looking at the portal behind Otto that now only had an alloy door.

Although the alloy door blocked most of the light curtain, the emitted halo could still be seen, and over a wide area.

But now that halo has disappeared.

"Huh?" Otto glanced back instinctively and found that the bar door had indeed disappeared.

"You really know how to cause me trouble," Chen Luo's voice suddenly rang in Otto's ear.

Otto immediately looked toward the source of the sound and saw Chen Luo's phantom floating in the air.

"Shh, don't talk. Karen can't see me right now. Just think about what you want to say in your mind." Chen Luo made a shushing gesture.

"After all, I'm now a fairy who can grant wishes. Naturally, I need to maintain my own style." Chen Luo flew around in the air, showing great curiosity about the prison.
