Otto and Karen, they themselves are two completely different people.

Their means, their goals, and even the direction of progress are different.

Karen seems to be in the light, but there is darkness all around.

It's just that the darkness was hidden by Otto where she couldn't see it.

He thought that by doing so, Karen would be able to realize her dream with peace of mind.

But he was wrong.

It was just too late when he knew the answer.

Karen is a real person. It's not that she can't accept sacrifice. What she can't accept is that someone is forced to sacrifice.

For example, if someone is about to die, the price to save her must be one life for another.

Then Karen would sacrifice her life without hesitation to save that person.

But if it's Otto, he'll weigh the other's worth before saving her with someone else's life.

He was a selfish man, but also the epitome of the vast majority of us.

He could die generously for Karen, but he wouldn't die for someone who had nothing to do with him.

But Karen will.

Therefore, Karen is the [Saint] of destiny.

In this world, there are very few people like Karen.

But the world often needs people like Karen.

Because, in times of crisis, someone has to take the initiative to die in exchange for the survival of more people.

"Indeed, even if you told me all these things, Otto, I would not change myself."

Karen sighed.

"I know."

Otto nodded.

Of course he knew, because no one knew Karen better than him.

"How do you say it... It's hard to judge this matter purely from right or wrong."

Cang Xiaoxuan shook his head and said,

"If you look at those people and relatives who are used for new drug research, Otto's actions are undoubtedly evil."

"But if you look at those who were infected with the Black Death at that time and were finally rescued because of Otto's medicine, what Otto did was the act of a born saint and a benefactor of salvation."

"This is very typical. When a catastrophe comes, sacrificing a small number of people in exchange for the safety and interests of more people. No matter which side you stand on, there is actually no right or wrong."

Cang Xiaoxuan's database contains information about the pre-civilization era, so she is very clear that in the face of such a catastrophe, not to mention sacrificing a small number of people, even sacrificing most people, as long as human civilization can be preserved, That counts as success.

Therefore, Otto's behavior is not wrong.

Of course, Karen wasn't wrong either.

She is also right that she grieves, feels pain, feels guilty and unacceptable for those who were forced to sacrifice.

If this is wrong, where should the people who sacrificed for it be placed?

Could it be that their sacrifices are not even worth being mourned?

A forced sacrifice is also a sacrifice.

If people are accustomed to sacrifice, and even feel that the sacrifice of a small number of people for the sake of the majority of people is justified, then the world is not far from destruction.

Therefore, Otto's behavior is not wrong, and Karen's behavior is not wrong. What is wrong is this world, the source of this disaster - collapse!

"Well...it feels like the topic is getting heavier and heavier."

Theresa said.

"After all, it's about the Black Death and how society worked at the time."

Cecilia sighed,

"Such a question, from the eyes of our latecomers, will be subjectively conscious no matter how we look at it, and we cannot make a correct judgment."

"To this day, Otto, I understand your choice, but sorry, I still can't accept it."

Karen said in a low voice.

"I see."

Otto smiled and nodded.

"If you accept it, then you are no longer Karen Kaslana, the saint of the Church of Destiny."

"Hmph, that sounds so nice."

Jackal sneered,

"Sacrificing a small number of people in exchange for the survival of most people, making Otto like a good person of last resort."

"If the person to be sacrificed is Karen, as long as her life can be exchanged for the lives of 25 million people, will you agree, Otto?"

"…"

Otto was expressionless and did not speak.

But everyone already understood what he meant.

Of course he wouldn't agree.

Because he is a selfish person, and so are the vast majority of people.

It's like the classic trolley puzzle.

No matter what you choose, you will never get a right answer.

And when it comes to people related to them, anyone is selfish.

And this, on Otto, is even more obvious.

He is a person who cares deeply about his feelings, but also a person who is absolutely indifferent.

All his feelings were given to Karen, and Otto never cared about other people, especially those who had nothing to do with him.

Just like the 30 million people who died when he let go of the Herrscher of the Sky during the second collapse.

He won't care.

"Maybe you're right, Otto doesn't agree, but I agree."

Karen looked at the jackal and said seriously,

"In this world, no one is perfect, everyone has weaknesses, and sometimes they make mistakes."

"Otto is like this, I am like this, everyone is like this..."

"So at this time, we need the help of others. This is how human beings support and help each other to continue to this day."

"Hmph, it's just some high-sounding remarks."

Jackal disdain, but she did not continue to say anything.

Mainly, Kevin's sight is a bit piercing.

on the screen.

Facing the words of the void, Otto nodded slightly,

"Of course, because I was wishful thinking at the time that I had more ways to protect her secretly."

"Heh, she is the Valkyrie with the strongest destiny. You actually wanted to use your power to protect her back then?"

Void Wanzang said a little ridiculously.

"After all, at that time, I thought that my abilities were complementary to hers, and I always wanted to use my own methods to secretly make up for the other's shortcomings."

Otto said calmly.

"Strange, how can you, who have been frail and sick since childhood, think highly of yourself in this kind of thing? History has proven that you couldn't actually do anything at that time."

"You even accelerated her break from her original living environment - and the price was her life."

"Yeah... That day, she finally discovered the real dark side of Destiny."

Otto sighed, and his tone became gloomy again,

"Our lives have been out of control since then."

"The next story turned into a tragedy dressed in absurdity..."

"I finally made the stupidest judgment of my life."

The screen paused here, and the voice of the question and answer space rang in the ears of everyone.

[Question 57: Who is the culprit that caused Otto to kill Karen? 】

This is a fill-in-the-blank question, and the one who answers the question this time is destiny.

"Huh? Otto's culprit in killing Karen?"

Seeing this question, everyone couldn't help showing surprise.

Even Karen showed a surprised expression.

Because they all know the cause of Karen's death.

On the day of Karen's execution, Otto released the Honkai beasts imprisoned under the Church of Destiny to cause chaos and wanted to take the opportunity to rescue Karen.

But what Otto didn't know was that Karen's master had already prepared a means of escape for her.

Sometimes fate is just like that.

In the end, everyone knew that Karen died in order to protect the people who were attacked by the Honkai Beast.

But now it seems that this accident seems to have another secret?

"Otto, what's going on? What does the culprit mean? Didn't you release those Honkai beasts?"

Karen looked at Otto in amazement, with a puzzled look on her face.

But before Otto could answer, she was the first to react.

"That's right... At that time, you had no rights at all in Destiny, and the church dungeon where Honkai beasts were held was seen as dead. With your power, it was impossible for you to release so many Honkai beasts by yourself. , and the man in charge of the destiny at that time was…”

"...It's Sister Lisa."

Otto closed his eyes and sighed, as if he didn't want to recall the memory that had tormented him for five hundred years.

"Is it really her..."

Karen suddenly said,

"But why does she want to help you? After releasing so many Honkai Beasts, Destiny will be held accountable afterward, right?"

"Isn't that obvious?"

Einstein said quietly,

"Since this Lisa is Otto's sister and the man in charge of the destiny at that time, the reason why she helped Otto is naturally not because of the deep love between the siblings, but... Chi Guoguo's power transaction. "

"That's right."

Otto said softly,

"I promised her that as long as I can rescue Karen, I will fly away with Karen, and I will not compete with her for the position of bishop."

"So, she released the Honkai Beast that Destiny had imprisoned."

Einstein sneered,

"It's really a good strategy to kill two birds with one stone. I believe that she definitely has a better way to rescue Karen, but she chose the most dangerous way."
