Starting from the Collapse World, I became the behind-the-scenes boss

Peggy: “…”

Although her will is indeed not strong enough, isn't it too quick for you to consider the consequences of failure?

At least teach me how to kill someone!

Being stared at by the boy, Peggy tilted her head and thought for a moment, then said seriously: "I won't betray you."

It was all she could do.

No matter how much torture she suffered, she would never betray her benefactor.

Moreover, since she couldn't kill anyone anymore, how could she continue to disappoint Shi Hen's expectations?

"..."

Looking at the girl who had made up her mind to die, Shi Hen felt that there seemed to be something wrong with her mind.

Bang!

After tapping Peggy's forehead lightly, Shi Hen sighed and said, "If it really comes to that, you should surrender immediately and say..."

…………

"Will you be my father?"

Peggy asked cautiously, looking at the impressive blonde in front of her, like a rabbit sticking its head out of a hole.

"Father?"

Looking down at her huge sin, Cocolia couldn't help but blink innocently.

Does she look like a man?

"What father? I won't be your father." Cocolia shook her head, "But if you want, you can treat me as your mother, okay?"

Whether it is a father or a mother, she will never use her child as a tool.

Children are like flowers that need to be carefully nurtured, not cold blades.

Being looked at by Cocolia's gentle gaze, Peggy couldn't help but think of the black-haired boy who always had a cold expression.

In a trance, Peggy nodded slightly.

"Then..." Cocolia hugged the girl in her arms, pressed the girl's little head tightly against her broad chest, and smiled gently, "From today on, you are my daughter."

"..."

Feeling Cocolia's almost suffocating tenderness and warmth, which was something she had never experienced from Shi Hen, Peggy seemed to understand everything in an instant.

So, that's what he meant.

2012 calendar, December 12, Arctic Circle.

“This is the Aurora…”

On top of an iceberg, looking at the brilliant light floating in the eternal night sky above his head, Shi Hen couldn't help but sigh out loud.

In the starry black night sky, there is light floating from a very far distance, slowly flowing across the sky like a winding river.

"Isn't it beautiful?"

Glancing at the young man beside him, Raven asked with a smile.

"Well, this is the most beautiful sight I have ever seen."

Shi Hen looked at the night sky and nodded slightly.

The long river of light particles stretching across the dark night sky is an ordinary sight that occurs every day, but the touching and gorgeous scene it brings will never fade.

"Every time I see these, I can't help but think how lucky it is to live on a planet like this."

Also looking up at the gorgeous night sky above his head, the raven also let out a long sigh.

"Who says it's not?"

Shi Hen said softly.

Even in this world where Honkai exists, Earth is still the only planet with life that humans can see.

"Come to think of it, it's been almost three months since you joined the World Serpents."

Raven stroked a strand of hair beside his ear and looked at the young man next to him and sighed.

"Well, it's almost there."

After thinking for a while, Shi Hen nodded.

Although he didn't keep track of time, he could still roughly feel the length of time.

"Time flies so fast..."

Raven couldn't help but sigh.

The day she had agreed to meet with the gray snake was coming soon.

“Whether long or short, time always passes evenly; only the human heart passes fast.”

Shi Hen explained.

Raven: "..."

At this time, you still have to tear me down, right?

"Tomorrow is Christmas."

Raven changed the subject.

"Ten minutes left."

Shi Hen glanced at his phone. It was 23:50.

"Anything you want for Christmas?"

Raven asked.

“This is the best Christmas present ever.”

Shi Hen pointed at the aurora and the night sky above his head.

This is the most beautiful gift that nature has given to mankind.

"I knew you would say that." Raven sighed and shook his head, "But, at a time like this, it's okay to act a little spoiled to your sister.

After all, I will be gone from the world after this Christmas."

"Can the World Serpent resign?"

A surprised expression appeared on Shi Hen's face.

He didn't sign any employee contract when he joined the company.

“Maybe I’m special.”

The raven smiled self-deprecatingly.

Compared with other World Serpent cadres who have firm beliefs, she is almost an outlier with her casual attitude.

Looking at the boy beside him, Raven added: "Or maybe, after having you, the organization no longer cares about my stay or departure."

"Sister Natasha, do you want to leave?"

Shi Hen asked in a serious tone.

"I don't know either." Facing the boy's deep gaze, Raven slowly shook his head, "I have been in World Snake for twelve... it will be almost thirteen years, and I have long been accustomed to this place.

But... well, I always want to go somewhere else.

I have been a mercenary for long enough, I want to change my lifestyle, maybe I will have a different experience. "

"That's it..."

Shi Hen also sighed.

He had actually been vaguely aware of this matter for a long time.

It was clearly a simple debt collection mission, but Raven insisted on taking him along, and even wasted such a long time in Siberia, and even cared a lot about Peggy.

The other party had already been preparing for his departure from the World Snake.

On the one hand, Raven hopes that this trip to Siberia will give him a glimpse into the dark side of the World Serpent and warn him to be vigilant.

On the other hand, Raven also hopes that he can keep Peggy so that he will not be alone in World Snake in the future. After all, his style does not match that of World Snake.

But unfortunately, the boy's choice was not what the mercenary wanted.

"I'm sorry to tell you this at a time like this."

Raven whispered.

"There's an old saying in Shenzhou, 'All good things must come to an end.'" Shi Hen shook his head, "Besides, even if Sister Natasha leaves the World Snake, it doesn't mean we can't meet again.

As long as you live in this world, you will always see it.

It’s not like Sister Natasha doesn’t have my contact information.”

In this modern society with convenient transportation and advanced communications, a farewell is no longer a rare event in this lifetime as it was in ancient times.

Although the World Snake Organization and its inside and outside are almost two different worlds, Shi Hen has never cared much about the rules of the organization.

The World Snake respects the strong, and at this time, Shi Hen already has the privilege of asking the organization to change the rules for him.

"Ha, that's right..."

Wiping the tears that threatened to fall from the corners of his eyes, Raven suddenly laughed.

"As for the Christmas gift, Sister Natasha, please give me a hug, and then I will return it to you next Christmas."

Shi Hen said with a smile and opened his hands.

bang~

After taking a look at the young man, Raven pounced on him without any hesitation, using such force that he even pressed Shi Hen to the ground in the snow.

"Perhaps, you are the best Christmas gift I have ever received..."

Raven whispered in the boy's ear.

It was both fortunate and unfortunate for her to meet Shi Hen during the last period of time before leaving the World Snake.

But no matter what, she had a very happy time during this period.

"Then I wish Sister Natasha a Merry Christmas."

Patting the woman's back, Shi Hen said softly.

"Well, Merry Christmas..."

The mercenary responded by hugging the boy tightly.

Testimonials

The content is as the title says.

Generally speaking, the remarks before a product is put on the shelves are usually followed by a wave of poor sales, but I don’t think I need to do that.

Everyone can see the various votes, it's already bad enough. (???·(? ????? )??·?)

As for the rules for adding more chapters, I looked at other authors' requirements for adding more chapters, and finally I decided that I should just write honestly. ……(??)σ

So, let me briefly talk about this novel.

Objectively speaking, I should be a fan of the original novel. What I like is the brilliance that those Valkyries burst out when they fight to save the world and to protect the people around them.

Because of this, I want to try my best to make the characters' performances in this book fit their true selves. However, due to my limited writing ability, this is probably impossible to guarantee, so please understand.

Like Kiana and others, they will have a close relationship with Shihen, but that should have nothing to do with love. Because they are people who carry the world on their shoulders, they will not give up the world for one person, and there is a high probability that they will even kill their relatives for the sake of justice. ………(。???).゜

Of course, it should still be possible to arrange for the characters to occasionally show some sweetness with each other, or for some fateful showdown to take place.

Finally, let's talk about Time Mark. The protagonist I want to create is not a savior, and he never thinks of himself as a savior. He is probably just a person who wants to be a big boss, but not that bad.

Just like during this trip to Siberia, Shi Hen could treat many people as pawns, and he could turn a blind eye to Raven's slightly cruel style, and he was even indifferent when he knew that he had the power to change the situation in Siberia.

He never thought of being a savior.
