"They're here!"
Zeus, standing on the rooftop, muttered as she watched a pink dot in the distance slowly approaching her. As the pink dot gradually expanded, a familiar figure appeared before Zeus. Looking at this familiar person slowly approaching her, Zeus felt a slight sigh of emotion. 500 years ago, this child was still so melancholic, but now she looked happy. Love truly nourished people.
"Long time no see."
When Yae Sakura stood steadily beside Zeus, Zeus said to her with emotion.
"You… are you Zeus? Or her descendant?"
Looking at Zeus's face, Yae Sakura was a little unsure. After all, Zeus had made some slight physical modifications. If it weren't for a familiar feeling emanating from Zeus, Yae Sakura would never have associated the person in front of her with the one she loved.
"That's right, it's me."
Regarding Yae Sakura's question, Zeus frankly admitted her identity. However, Zeus's answer stunned Yae Sakura and the one person and one beast within her body. Kallen wasn't surprised, after all, her good friend Otto was still alive. Rin and Daodao Maru never expected the person in front of them to have lived for so long, 500 years. What could allow a person to live for 500 years? However, Rin had actually seen Zeus before, but the change was too great, so she didn't recognize her, otherwise, she wouldn't have been surprised.
"I've been looking for you for a long time."
Yae Sakura looked at the person she had longed for, right in front of her. Yae Sakura felt her eyes welling up, completely unable to describe her current feelings. A mix of relief, gratitude, excitement, happiness, and a hint of sadness. This jumbled mix of emotions made Yae Sakura's heart feel like it was about to burst.
Without answering Yae Sakura, Zeus simply smiled and watched Yae Sakura. At this moment, she could fully feel how excited Yae Sakura was. At this point, it was better to let her calm down than to initiate a conversation. It wouldn't be too late to talk after she calmed down.
But Zeus didn't expect Yae Sakura to suddenly take a few steps closer and hug Zeus. This sudden embrace stunned Zeus, and Kallen was also stunned. Daodao Maru and Rin were even speechless, only able to quietly watch Yae Sakura cry in Zeus's arms. However, Kallen felt strange at this moment, as if something green had grown on her head.
Despite her surprise, Zeus did not push Yae Sakura away. This showed that Zeus was not averse to Yae Sakura's embrace. How could she reject such a cute girl? Zeus was not a 'gay man.' Feeling the softness in her arms, Zeus believed that most people would not make such a foolish decision to push her away. After hugging Yae Sakura and waiting for her emotions to calm down, the two began to communicate, roughly talking about how they had been doing recently.
"So, I need Kallen, for you to judge that madman."
After roughly explaining her plan and Otto's recent misdeeds, Zeus waited for Kallen's reply.
"I agree."
Kallen, who briefly manifested by borrowing Honkai energy from Yae Sakura's body, said to Zeus.
"He must atone for the crimes he has committed."
Kallen said to Zeus with mixed emotions. She never expected that the person she had lived with for 500 years had known the person she loved before she did. This made her feel a little conflicted. Although she was conflicted, with her straightforward personality, she still chose to act on behalf of heaven and eliminate the mad Otto.
"That's good."
Zeus nodded to Kallen in satisfaction. She was indeed the person she had spent the longest time with. She had not misjudged her. The next step was to block Theresa, but she already had someone in mind.
"Bang! Bang!"
"Come in."
Theresa, who was reading manga, quickly tore up the manga in her hand after hearing a knock on the door, then calmly told the person to come in. However, Theresa could no longer remain calm after what came next.
"What did you say? The European headquarters was attacked? Kyushu collaborated with Anti-Entropy and started attacking Schicksal?"
"Are you sure this isn't a joke?"
Theresa looked incredulous. Kyushu and Schicksal had been in a standoff for 500 years. Although there had been constant minor skirmishes during that time, it shouldn't have come to a complete fallout! What exactly was going on? However, there was nothing she could do. Theresa confirmed the authenticity of the information three times, then picked up her weapon and ran towards the Hyperion.
However, she was stopped on the way by an unexpected person.
"Himeko, what are you doing here? Why aren't you on standby on the Hyperion?"
Theresa cautiously touched the Judah on her body, questioning Himeko, who looked different, and the golden greatsword in Himeko's hand.
"I'm sorry, Dean, I can't let you pass."
Himeko twirled the greatsword in her hand. Zeus had taken her to meet a very beautiful girl, and then another beautiful girl emerged from Zeus's body. After the two girls showered her with dog food, she obtained this golden greatsword, comparable to the Judah, named 'xuanyuan sword'.
"I'm sorry, although that grandpa has done many bad things, he is still my grandpa. I must go save him. Please don't stop me, Himeko."
Placing Judah on the ground, Theresa said with a serious expression. However, this slight smile was nothing to Himeko now. Through Zeus's guidance, Himeko's current strength was already enough to contend with Theresa and not be defeated within a day. All matters within a day were basically resolved, so was there still a need for Theresa's appearance?
Theresa, not getting a response from Himeko, knew that things were irreversible. So, she reluctantly opened Judah, took out the light spear, and rushed towards Himeko. Himeko, knowing Theresa's temperament, had already taken precautions. She calmly parried with Theresa; anyway, she wasn't in a hurry. Theresa was the one in a hurry, and Himeko only needed to stall Theresa.
On the other side, Zeus and her companions, who had almost finished cleaning up Schicksal, began to walk towards the laboratory where the First 'Green' One, Otto, was located.
"What a magnificent performance."
In this dark secret room, the only light source was Otto. He was leisurely holding a glass of red wine, looking mockingly at the group of people: Zeus, Yae Sakura, and Fu Hua. Kiana (true) stood beside him, and he probably wouldn't know how he would react if he knew that his strongest ace was actually an undercover agent.
"Kiana, eliminate these little kittens who have trespassed into my territory. Let them depart without any pain."
Otto, with a confident expression, stood up and prepared to leave. He had great confidence in the ace he had personally trained, and she had also been brainwashed by him, only obeying his commands, so he was completely at ease.
Unfortunately, overly confident people sometimes become conceited. A light sword piercing his body instantly made him understand this truth; the tuition fee was his life.
"Seriously, to transform yourself into a cyborg, you're truly insane, Otto! Kallen's remaining part is yours."
Zeus looked at Otto, who was kneeling helplessly on the ground, with a disgusted expression, and said to Sakura.
"Ka... Kallen."
Hearing this name, Otto even forgot the pain. He turned his head to look at Zeus; he hadn't misheard, she had mentioned Kallen's name. As Otto watched, a person's shadow slowly appeared behind Sakura, then shed its blackness, transforming into his most familiar person, his goddess, Kallen Kaslana.
"Oh~! Kallen, my goddess, you've returned."
At this moment, Otto, like Marshal Gilles, widened his eyes crazily and said in a frantic tone.
"Otto, as an agent of God, you have committed such demonic acts. I misjudged you. Now, on behalf of the deceased children, I grant you death."
Kallen said sadly. She really didn't want to do this, but her conscience urged her to seek justice for the deceased children.
In the end, Otto died. He wasn't killed by anyone; rather, without the support of life, he self-destructed. However, Zeus lit a divine flame on his soul. Such a sinful soul, Hades probably wouldn't even want to take back into the Underworld.
