"...Ah? O, Otto, this joke is not funny at all..."

Karen's fist clenched instantly, and the emotion in her eyes seemed to turn into a boundless sea, wrapping Otto in it, making him even a little hard to breathe.

"…"

Otto said nothing, his attitude said it all.

Karen's eyes were full of disbelief. She looked at this familiar and unfamiliar man in front of her. She thought she knew him well, but she forgot that it was not five hundred years ago.

During this time, for her, it was only equivalent to a sleep.

But for Otto, he has lived through five hundred years in real life.

He has changed, and he is no longer the person in his memory.

"…Why?"

Karen looked at Otto blankly, she needed an answer.

"Because they didn't meet my requirements."

Otto said calmly,

"I made them just to resurrect you, but then I found out that no matter how many clones of you I made, they are not you, you are unique."

"...Just for this reason? You killed them?"

"That's right."

"Why?"

Karen asked a second time.

She didn't understand why Otto could speak so calmly, so...without burden.

That's a human, not a Honkaikai!

Thousands of lives, does he really not care at all?

"Because the cost of making them is very small, with just one finger, you can produce a lot of them in batches..."

"Otto!!"

Karen's voice was trembling, she stood up suddenly, a pair of blue eyes, showing the color of anger.

Her fists clenched even more, her hard nails pierced the skin, and blood flowed down instantly, and she didn't care.

"Karen, in the past five hundred years, I have indeed done a lot of things that are unforgivable in your opinion, and I have never regretted it."

Otto said word by word,

"This is who I am now, the current Archbishop of Destiny, the current... Otto Apocalis."

"...Otto, grit my teeth!"

Karen took a step forward, the flames of anger almost condensed on her right fist.

Amber subconsciously wanted to stand in front of Otto, but was stopped by Otto's look.

Then, the punch that contained anger and grief landed fiercely on his soul steel face.

Otto flew upside down, flying three or four meters away, and finally landed on the ground and rolled a few times.

"You...what did you do!!"

Karen's roar of pain echoed throughout the laboratory.

She took a few steps and came to Otto again, grabbed his collar, and lifted Otto, who was covered in embarrassment, from the ground.

"Do you know what you are doing?! What is human life in your eyes?! Is it just a number?!"

"Made them at will, and kill them at will! Do you think of yourself as a god?!!"

"Otto Apocalis! Answer me!!"

Karen's roar was deafening, almost tearing Otto's soul to pieces.

He wasn't surprised by this.

If Karen hadn't done that, then she wouldn't be Karen.

Otto coughed a few times, and then raised his head with difficulty - he saw the pain and sadness in the white-haired girl's eyes, and...the clear tears that reflected his appearance.

Karen Kaslana.

This girl who showed her strength at all times, never shed a single tear even in prison, in the field of law, and even in the most desperate times.

At this time, he cried like a child.

She could accept all the despair and pain that happened to her, but she couldn't accept what Otto did.

She couldn't imagine what kind of scene it was - girls similar to her were made like dolls, they were just born, they came to this world, and they didn't have time to enjoy the beauty of the world, they were just like inferior Product destruction in general…

Karen felt as if her heart was being grabbed by someone, and a piercing pain spread all over her body, making her almost unable to breathe!

Chapter five hundred and twelfth heavy blow to Karen 4K

The technology of those clones is not complete, their lifespan is extremely short, even if he does nothing, they will bloom like fireworks and pass away quickly—

In this case, Otto did not say anything.

Because it doesn't make sense.

Heroes, no matter how grandiose reasons they use to whitewash their actions, they can't hide the consequences of that evil flower blooming.

That's not why he let the clones kill each other.

"Answer me! Otto!"

Seeing Otto's silence, Karen called out again, her voice full of grief,

"Don't let me down on you!"

"...Karen, five hundred years can change a lot of people."

Otto closed his eyes calmly,

"From the time you died, I understood that gentleness and kindness can't change anything."

"In order to achieve the goal, you can do whatever it takes. I only need the result I want, and that's enough."

"…"

Karen stared blankly at the familiar face in front of her. It was obvious that he was still the one he remembered, but why...he now makes him feel so unfamiliar?

"Otto, you were never like this..."

Karen let go of her hand weakly and lowered her eyelids.

She knew, long ago, that she and Otto had already embarked on two completely different paths.

In fact, she knew about Otto's secret behavior.

But she never blamed Otto, because she knew that Otto was using his own method to save the world.

Although she couldn't accept that method, it was also a method.

And she also believed that to do such a thing, Otto himself was under enormous pressure.

But now what?

She didn't see even a trace of remorse in Otto's eyes, as if the thousands of lives, in his eyes, were just as cold and ruthless as a thousand guinea pigs.

This was not the Otto she knew.

The Otto she knew was a smart, strong man who still had warmth in his heart.

Being in the dark and turning to the light is the best interpretation of him.

But now everything is different.

Karen Kaslana once again realized what it means to have died for more than five hundred years.

"Lord Karen..."

Looking at the silent atmosphere in the field, Amber opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he couldn't say anything.

She has no position to persuade what to say.

This is between Karen and Otto.

It is true that Otto did all this to resurrect Karen.

But can Karen accept all this?

Can she accept that her resurrection is based on the bones and sins of countless people?

It doesn't sound good.

Karen was ready to die five hundred years ago, and until the end, she also died to protect the people, and she died without any regrets.

But Otto committed various evil deeds in the past five hundred years because he wanted to resurrect her.

He didn't ask Karen for advice, and he did it even though he knew he was doing what Karen hated the most.

To put it nicely, he called it infatuation, obsession, and desperate love.

To put it poorly, it is pure magic.

Not so much for Karen, but for himself.

For the guilt of Karen in her heart, for Karen's dream, for the little girl in her heart who told herself she was going to save the world when she was a child.

"Otto... You said that you made them to find a way to resurrect me, right?"

Karen's voice suddenly became very soft.

Otto's eyebrows couldn't help but jump.

It still came.

He was not afraid of Karen blaming himself, scolding himself, or even running away from himself.

What he was most afraid of was that Karen carried the sin that belonged to him on his back.

He knows Karen's character too well. She is a person who is used to taking all the suffering and responsibility on her shoulders, and this seems to be a common problem for everyone in the Kaslana family.

Because he really did these things because he wanted to resurrect her.

Otto knew a long time ago that if he could really resurrect Karen one day, then her reaction would definitely be like this, but he had no way to change it.

Even if he is seen by others as the archbishop of destiny, there seems to be nothing in the world that he cannot do.

But only in the face of Karen, his eloquence in the past, those eloquence that can convince people, the means that can change people's hearts... none of them can be used.

In front of others, he is the archbishop of destiny.

But in front of Karen, he was just Otto Apocalis.

So in the face of Karen's questioning, Otto chose to remain silent.

And silence is sometimes the best answer.

Karen took a deep breath, her eyes as blue as the sky, full of confusion and hesitation.

She suddenly didn't know how to face Otto.

Should she hate what Otto did?

Of course it should.

But what he did was to resurrect himself, so if he really wanted to talk about responsibility, it was undoubtedly his own problem.

If it wasn't for her, Otto... wouldn't be the strange person he is now.

So what is she… now what?

What should she do to let those who died because of Otto, because of herself, rest in peace?

Karen doesn't know yet.
