『 Looking at the other person, Kallen smiled helplessly.
“Hey! Sleeping in wet clothes in this weather will give you frostbite. Get up quickly. I'll find a hanger, and you can take off your coat to dry it.”
“But during the retreat, there weren't many coats or quilts left among the military supplies.”
“What are you talking about? Here, wear mine first.” Kallen took off her coat without a second thought and handed it to Otto: “I’m the strongest Valkyrie of Schicksal, how could I be afraid of a little cold like this?”
However, the truth didn't seem to be as Kallen had said. Not long after taking off her coat, Kallen also opened her mouth.
“Achoo!”...
After a sneeze, Otto teased, “You, you—did you catch a cold too?”
But at this moment, the stubborn Kallen still insisted on giving her coat to Otto.
“I’m really fine. You take care of yourself first, stop worrying about me, honestly.”
Otto looked at the woman in front of him, then lowered his head to glance at the coat in his hand that still carried body heat.
“Alright, alright…” Unable to resist Kallen, Otto eventually put on the women’s clothing this time.
After a moment of silence, Kallen finally couldn't help but voice the doubt in her heart:
“Otto, with our defeat this time, will your father’s side lose a lot of money?”
“Probably, but let’s not worry about that. After all, big figures always have a way to solve problems, right?” Otto said, not entirely certain.
After all, this loss was a sure thing.
However, this was beyond their scope of concern; they could only wait and see.
Kallen also understood this, sighing and saying:
“You have a point, but I think I mentioned it before…”
“I feel that Schicksal recently has had some issues with its organizational stance.”
“Like I just inadvertently asked you, should our Schicksal really be so concerned about money as it is now?”
“Perhaps not, but in this world, it’s indeed impossible to move an inch without money,” Otto answered frankly.
Kallen agreed with this; money, though not omnipotent, was indispensable.
“Alright, let’s not dwell on these irrelevant matters, okay?” Otto tried to change the subject, “It’s so late, are you hungry?” 』

【 Chika Fujiwara (Love Is War): “What a stiff way to change the subject.” 】
【 Einstein (Honkai: Impact Third): “So, the Schicksal Overseer back then looked like that?” 】
【 Einstein (Honkai: Impact Third): “Truly, I never would have thought.” 】
【 Oyama Mahiro (Onimai): “??? Your name?” 】
【 Miyamizu Mitsuha (Your Name): “Isn’t that the name of that famous scientist?” 】
【 Einstein (Honkai: Impact Third): “Don’t mind it, this might just be a namesake in another world. I am not the Einstein you know, and neither is Tesla.” 】
【 Tesla (Honkai: Impact Third): “What’s up, Birdbrain?” 】
【 Einstein (Honkai: Impact Third): “Nothing, you continue to roast Otto.” 】
【 Oyama Mahiro (Onimai): “Alright…” 】
【 。。。。。 】
『 As the screen shifted, time flowed once again.
In a place that looked like a laboratory.
Otto and Kallen were studying something on the table.
Kallen picked up a reagent and looked at her childhood friend in confusion.
“Otto, what is this?”
“This is a medicine I’m developing,” Otto explained hesitantly. “The previous Black Death might have variants, so I need to enhance the medicine’s efficacy to save more people.” 』
『 。。。。。』

【 Himeko (Honkai: Star Rail): “Looking at it, I’m afraid this medicine wasn't developed through normal means, was it?” 】
【 Otto (Honkai: Impact Third): “I don’t deny that this medicine was completed after a series of human experiments, but at that time, I was also doing it for everyone.” 】
【 The Herta (Honkai: Star Rail): “In the technologically backward old era, human experimentation was a necessity. Even now, I would recruit volunteers.” 】
【 March 7th (Honkai: Star Rail): “…” 】
【 Otto (Honkai: Impact Third): “I know what I did was wrong, so I didn’t tell Kallen at that time, not until the very end.” 】
【 Ningguang (Genshin Impact): “Until the very end, she found herself, right?” 】
【 Otto (Honkai: Impact Third): “Exactly.” 】
【 。。。。。 】
『 On the other side, recalling the little girl Otto had brought back earlier, Kallen seemed to understand the medicine’s effect.
“Eleanor turned the corner because of this medicine, right?”
The fact that this disease could be directly cured by this medicine indicated its extraordinary efficacy.
Otto thought for a moment, then answered Kallen’s question:
“Yes, but she has a special constitution; she won’t experience the strong side effects others might.
Otherwise, my mother wouldn't have allowed her name to be associated with the Schariac name.”
“You’re still the same as when you were a child, tinkering with all sorts of amazing things here!” Kallen looked at her unchanging childhood friend, full of emotion.
From a clever child, Otto could still invent extraordinary good things even now.
“Uh… thank you,” Otto thanked softly, then revealed his thoughts, “I’m just trying to keep up with someone’s pace, alright, let’s not talk about this anymore.”
After saying that, Otto looked at Kallen with a hint of worry, “Are you also going out tonight?”
Upon hearing this, Kallen seriously told Otto, “Yes, you do your thing, I’m very skilled at mine, there won’t be any mishaps.”
Having done it so many times, Kallen was confident she wouldn’t leave any flaws.
This was the confidence of being Schicksal’s strongest Valkyrie.
“You still need to be careful, after all, we’re doing this right under the noses of those old fogies,” Otto still worriedly cautioned.
Seeing Otto’s worried expression, Kallen also made her promise.
“I understand. I’ll do my best in what I can do and won’t deliberately cause trouble.”
“After all, given the current situation, it’s still too early to make everyone resist those old social operating rules.”
Hearing the girl say this, Otto felt a little anxious and wanted to persuade her.
“But Kallen, this kind of social operating method isn’t something that can be changed just by saying so.”
The current social situation hasn't changed for a long time, and relying on one person, using the method of robbing the rich to help the poor, can’t bring much change.
Although this method wasn't very effective, young Otto didn’t have any better ideas.
Kallen seriously explained her thoughts to Otto.
“Exactly, so we can only do small things within our capabilities for now, and then wait for a suitable opportunity.”
“If we don’t even work hard on the path we believe in, how can we convince others?”
“Indeed, you have a point. It seems we need to work harder together.”
“Mmm!” Otto hesitated for a moment, then agreed.
The camera shifted, and time quietly passed.
In a dimly lit basement, an arrogant female voice reached everyone’s ears.
“What’s wrong, my dear brother? Shouldn’t you be in the church keeping vigil for Father now?”
The response came from the recently hesitant Otto.
“Then why are you here, Sister Lisa?”
He asked back sternly and mercilessly of Sister Lisa, who stood opposite him. 』
『 。。。。。』
~Dimensional livestream, Chat Room~
【 Jean (Genshin Impact): “Lisa?” 】
【 Lisa (Genshin Impact): “Interesting, another me with the same name in another world.” 】
【 Lisa (Genshin Impact): “But, she doesn’t seem to be a good person~” 】
【 Otto (Honkai: Impact Third): “Indeed, my sister, hehe, let’s not talk about it.” 】
【 。。。。。 】
『 As an older sister, Lisa didn't try to hide her thoughts when she heard Otto’s question, speaking her true feelings directly.
“Because I hate that old man, I don’t want to be hypocritical there; is that reason good enough?”
The undisguised smile on her face was completely out of sync with the mournful atmosphere of her father’s death at that moment.
Therefore, Otto looked at his sister with a gloomy expression.
“Father was murdered, and I know who the killer is.”
Thinking of his father’s sudden death and the current atmosphere between the two of them.
Otto didn’t think much and tried to force the woman in front of him with this news.
“Oh? Who is it? I’d like to know too.” Sister Lisa looked at her brother with a contemptuous expression.
“There’s no need for such obvious questions,” Otto straightforwardly stated his purpose to Lisa: “You need the position of Schicksal Overseer, and I also need to use this to make a deal.”
Lisa’s eyes glanced at Otto upon hearing this.
But she wasn't in a hurry to discuss the details of the deal.
Instead, she brought up another seemingly unrelated matter.
“Is it that Kallen Kaslana? You really like her, don’t you?”
Upon hearing that familiar name, Otto’s whole body trembled violently.
Immediately after, Sister Lisa stated a fact that silenced Otto.
“But it’s truly a pity, she’s going to be hanged tomorrow, dangling from a swaying rope, becoming a corpse that will never wake up.”
“And, she volunteered for this, didn’t she?”
Otto still had a gloomy face, staring at Lisa, who was once his sister.
“We pushed her to this point; each of us is responsible.”
“Alright, I know, you don’t want her to die.” Sister Lisa changed her tone and said to Otto, “But what can you trade with me? Her death sentence was decided by Mom, Dad, and the council together.”
Hearing this, a lamp of hope seemed to light up in Otto’s heart again. He looked up, gazing intently at the woman before him, the only woman who might help him achieve his wish at this moment.
“Since Father could be murdered like that, then I believe you must also have a way to save Kallen.”
“After it’s done, I promise to take her far away from here and will never harbor any improper thoughts about your Overseer position.”
“Oh? Now that you mention it, it does seem to make some sense.” A glint of greed flashed in Lisa’s eyes.
“However, my dear brother, even if the former Overseer unfortunately passes away, the new Overseer cannot rashly revoke such a major death sentence.”
“This concerns prestige in certain circles, you understand, don’t you?”
With that, Lisa deliberately left a cliffhanger, saying no more, just quietly watching the young man in front of her.
Soon, Otto, with a hint of despair, asked almost pleadingly, “You, you don’t want to help me?”
Although it had come to this, if this woman truly refused to help,
He really had no other choice.
Lisa obviously understood this as well. Her eyes darted, and she smiled meaningfully at Otto,
“Oh, don’t be so anxious, Otto Apocalypse.”
“I didn’t say I wouldn’t leave you a way out.”
“As long as you are willing to get your hands dirty yourself.”
With that, she half-covered her face with a fan, revealing only one eye as she scrutinized Otto.
Clearly, for Otto at this moment,
No matter the means, he was willing to try.
Therefore, after hearing Lisa’s request, Otto silently nodded.
At the end of this memory was a tombstone.
Engraved on it were: Kallen Kaslana: 1453- 1477
A young life of only 24 years, forever frozen at the scene of that execution.
What followed was the Great Overseer, who presided over Schicksal for five hundred years in history—Otto Apocalypse. 』

【 Shinomiya Kaguya (Love Is War): “This timeline, and she only lived for 24 years?” 】
【 Oyama Mahiro (Onimai): “What happened before? Why was she hanged?” 】
【 Kiana (Honkai: Impact Third): “Kaslana, is this my other ancestor?” 】
【 Fu Hua (Honkai: Impact Third): “It’s precisely because of what happened that Otto became like this later.” 】
【 Tesla (Honkai: Impact Third): “Although I know Otto was very pitiful at that time, what he did later can never be forgiven.” 】
【 Zhongli (Genshin Impact): “According to universal rationality, this is also one of the correct developments of the timeline.” 】
【 Shizuka Hiratsuka (Oregairu): “But why do we have to watch past history? And it’s a different past history from another world.” 】
【 Otto (Honkai: Impact Third): “I don’t know that either.” 】
【 。。。。。 】
『 The scene shifts.
In the livestream.
They arrived at an ancient-style town.
And here, several figures were searching for something.
They were Theresa, Tesla, and a blonde woman, exploring everywhere.
Suddenly, a familiar male voice urgently called out in their ears.
“Vera! Where are you?!”
“Vera!”...
“How annoying, what are these things?”
As the male voice sounded, the few people looked at each other in unison.
“What happened? Is someone calling for help?”
“Let’s go check it out quickly!”
However, when they found the man who was calling for help,
Upon seeing him, everyone froze.
The other person, however, was overjoyed to see living people, and then anxiously asked.
“Thank God, I finally met living people. Have you seen a girl?”
“She has silver-grey curly hair, a single side ponytail, wears a beret, and is about a head shorter than me.” 』
『 。。。。。』

【 Tesla (Honkai: Impact Third): “This Otto doesn’t seem to be the Otto we know.” 】
【 Haibara Ai (Detective Conan): “The clothes on him are the same as the person in the previous memory.” 】
【 Paimon (Genshin Impact): “Could it be that he came from the past to the present?” 】
【 Otto (Honkai: Impact Third): “Is that me from the past? And the place you are in, hehe.” 】
【 Kiana (Honkai: Impact Third): “Who is this Vera?” 】
【 Otto (Honkai: Impact Third): “Otto Vera, after Kallen, the last person I cherished most.” 】
【 Umaru Doma (Himouto): “Then she’s here…” 】
【 Otto (Honkai: Impact Third): “If my memory serves me right, she died peacefully in her sleep in 1543, not on the battlefield.” 】
【 Umaru Doma (Himouto): “That’s good then.” 】
【 。。。。。 】
『 In the scene.
“Grandpa?” Theresa looked at the man in front of her in confusion.
Thus, a confusing conversation of misunderstanding began.
Soon, after some explanation, the mysterious man—Otto—now looked at the three women with a bewildered expression.
“Wait, wait, let me clear up the current situation.”
“You mean, it’s currently 2017 AD, you are all people from this era, and you even know me?”
The mysteriously appearing man, who looked exactly like Otto, looked at the three of them with a puzzled expression.
So, Theresa naturally said to this unfamiliar Otto, “Yes, otherwise why would I call you Grandpa?”
Even if there was a rift between them, the years of affection were still there.
So in Theresa’s heart, only Otto was her grandfather; how could she casually call anyone else Grandpa?
This matter was clearly logical.
However, even with all that said, Otto, in front of them, still seemed to find it hard to believe his current reality.
“But even if all this is true, how could someone from over five hundred years ago live into your era? That’s too unreliable.”
“Because you made yourself a mechanical body,” the blonde Durandal said lightly.
Dr. Tesla, who was constantly on alert, retorted impatiently, “That’s right, you even used a Trojan horse program to steal other people’s bodies. In short, I will never believe you.”
“At least, you have to prove you’re really from the fifteenth century!”
“Your current existence is too illogical. From the leaked information of other time-spaces around, a living person like you can’t exist.”
Being targeted by the red-haired girl, Otto seemed a little flustered: “Uh, although this can be a reason for you to be wary of me, why do I always have a premonition that my future self did a lot of things that you can’t accept?”
Even if this time-space was real, those bad things should have been done by his future self.
For him, from five hundred years ago, these things were completely unimaginable.
It was simply a bolt from the blue. 』
『 。。。。。』
(Translator-kun: For those people who are confused about Lisa from Genshin Impact and Risa Apocalypse from Honkai Impact had the same name, but the first letter is diff. Because in Japanese, her name is consistently spelled "Risa" (リサ in Katakana) in official Honkai Impact 3rd materials. Same with Lisa Minci. Her name is also "リサ" (Risa) in Japanese Katakana, but officially romanized as "Lisa" for the English version of Genshin Impact. )
