[When you first saw Lilith, her beauty left a deep impression on you, but you were never as captivated as you were by the Rose Maiden. One glance was enough to mesmerize you, and you even forgot the time.]
[When the music stopped, you suddenly snapped out of your daze, looked up and carefully examined the girl in the black dress in the glass greenhouse, and realized that the pretty and charming young lady before you was the eldest daughter of the Losweiser family.]
[Your master—Rita Losweiser.]
Chapter 223 Betrayal from Rita
At age 0, you and your sister Lilith, who depended on each other for survival, escaped from the Destiny's experimental center and ended up in Manchester, England. To survive, you both found work as "servants" for the family of Losweather, the city's largest flower merchant.
Lilith serves Lady Lydia of the Losweiser family as a "maid," while you, as a "male servant," follow Miss Rita around like a shadow.
[You and Lilith have no identities, your origins are unknown, and while living on the streets, you committed many petty thefts to survive, making you notorious criminals.]
[The Losweiser home was a place you and Lilith finally found, a place to stay. To avoid returning to the streets, you cleaned, served tea and water, did laundry and cooked... You were a hardworking, uncomplaining, and emotionless laborer.]
[However, because of your past criminal history on the streets, the Losweiser family has always treated you badly. Every time they see you, it's like they've encountered a plague god, avoiding you at all costs. They often speak ill of you behind your back when you're not paying attention, and they even refer to you and Lilith as the "Twin Calamities" with fear and disgust.]
Most people in the Losweiser mansion both fear and loathe you and Lilith; only Lady Lydia and Miss Rita are exceptionally kind to you and your brother.
Lady Lia is kind-hearted and deeply pities your experience of wandering the streets. Miss Rita, having received a strict aristocratic education and having no children her own, yearns for friendship. Therefore, she doesn't see you, of lowly status, as a servant, but rather as a close playmate and friend.
You're happy to be Rita's friend, and spending time with her always makes you very happy. However... deep down, you can also feel the gap in status between you two, and you envy Rita for having loving parents and a wealthy family.
Although you and Rita share a genuine and deep friendship, the vast difference in your social status still creates an insurmountable barrier between you.
After finishing work, you return to your dark and cramped room, lie in bed, and ask Lilith beside you: "How can we possibly live a normal life?"
Lilith gently held you in her arms, whispering in your ear: "Jojo, no matter what others say to you, as long as you never give up, one day you will definitely get everything you want."
interesting...
It's worth noting that in the minds of many players, Rita has always been a gentle and capable maid.
But in this life simulation, Jojo actually encountered Rita from her childhood.
At this time, Rita had not yet joined Destiny and was not a maid serving others, but rather the young lady of Manchester's largest florist.
As for Jojo himself, his birth in this life simulation was incredibly unlucky. He almost died in a cult-like human experiment just after turning one year old. He barely managed to escape from the Fate Laboratory, but life wasn't easy either. After many twists and turns, he ended up becoming a male servant in Rita's household.
In other words... in this simulation, Jojo is Rita's servant, while Rita is Jojo's master.
This is outrageous...
If I had known my background would be this miserable... I should have chosen "born with a silver spoon in my mouth" or "filial piety" as my initial talent.
In this way, even if one is not born into a wealthy family, at least one will have parents to take care of them.
It wouldn't have ended up like this, a cyborg without parents, whose life is as worthless as grass.
Reincarnation is truly a skill.
Jojo can understand that in this simulation, she wants to change her fate, turn her life around, and reach the same status as Rita.
But how easy is that?
[You remembered Lilith's words, never caring about what others said, working diligently and taking care of your master, Miss Rita. You had finally adapted to your current life, but accidents always happen so suddenly—]
One day, as usual, you and Lilith picked Rita up from school.
However, on your way back to the Losweiser mansion, you were attacked by Schicksal combatants.
[The incident happened suddenly. A group of men dressed in black got out of a car, armed with guns, and pulled the triggers at you.]
In an instant, flashes of light erupted from the dark muzzle of the gun, and bullets rained down upon them.
Rita, born into nobility, had never seen anything like this before. Terrified, she hid behind a fire hydrant, crouching down with her head in her hands, trembling.
[But you and Lilith are, after all, artificial life forms created by Schicksal Laboratory by fusing the genes of Kallen, Otto, and Honkai Beasts. Although you look like children, your combat power far surpasses that of ordinary people.]
[You and Lilith worked together, and in just a few seconds, you killed all the men in black who were chasing you.]
After eliminating all threats, you quickly approached Rita, who was trembling like a chick behind a fire hydrant. You gently placed your hand on her shoulder and shook her, reassuring her, "Miss Rita, don't worry, it's all over now."
After the gunfire stopped, Rita heard your voice, and only then did she muster the courage to slowly open her eyes.
Upon opening her eyes, Rita was utterly stunned by what she saw.
The group of armed thugs in suits lay lifeless on the ground, their bodies mangled and covered in wounds. Even the black luxury sedan was completely wrecked.
[While you and Lilith are covered in blood, your faces are perfectly normal, as if nothing happened.]
[The idea that a group of well-armed thugs could be suddenly wiped out by two children is something no one would believe, even if it were told.]
Rita was completely shocked by the scene before her. Pale-faced, she sat frozen on the ground. After a long while, she asked, with a mixture of curiosity and fear, "Jojo...who exactly are you?"
Upon hearing this, you gently took Rita's slightly trembling hands and said softly, "I'm your friend, Miss Rita."
You gently comfort the frightened Rita, only to discover that Lilith had been shot in the earlier fight.
Seeing Lilith bleeding crimson blood from her abdomen, you and Rita went to a key location to buy medicine and then went to a small cabin outside Manchester for treatment, in preparation for the search by Destiny.
Fortunately, Lilith possesses not only the bloodlines of the two great families of Schicksal, but also Honkai Beast genes, giving her physical strength and self-healing abilities far exceeding those of ordinary people.
With Rita's help, and relying on the medical knowledge granted to you by destiny, you quickly stopped the bleeding from Lilith's wound, pulling her out of danger.
After healing Lilith, as you were seeing Rita off from the cabin, you earnestly instructed her, "You absolutely must not tell anyone where Lilith and I are."
Hearing your instructions, Rita nodded happily in agreement.
And so, in the afterglow of the setting sun, you happily waved goodbye to Rita.
I never imagined that Rita, whom I trusted most, would one day betray me...
Chapter 224 The Power of Vishnu's Genes
After seeing Rita off, you had no doubt about her promise. You turned back to your temporary hideout, removed the bandages from Lilith's severely injured and bedridden abdominal wound, changed her dressing, and wrapped her with new bandages. You then replaced the damp towel on her forehead to cool her down and carefully cooked her a bowl of multigrain and lean meat porridge.
Hey Hey hey...
Is it really appropriate to just let Rita leave like this?
Although Rita promised not to tell anyone, you are now under a huge bounty from Destiny.
Even if Rita isn't tempted by money and doesn't want to reveal your and Lilith's whereabouts, with Destiny's methods, there are plenty of ways to make Rita, who is just a child, obediently tell the truth.
That night, you carefully cared for your sister until she fell asleep, and then you also drifted off to sleep. Suddenly, you heard a series of faint, intricate footsteps outside your hiding place.
As a hybrid of human and Honkai Beast, your senses far surpass those of ordinary people. You keenly perceive the subtle footsteps outside and abruptly open your eyes.
Shortly after you saw Rita off, she returned home only to find that all the servants in the mansion had vanished.
Rita, filled with unease, ran to her parents' bedroom, only to bump into the elite Valkyrie from Schicksal.
They pointed guns at Rita's parents' heads, threatening Rita to reveal your and Lilith's whereabouts. Forced to protect her parents' lives, Rita had no choice but to disclose your and Lilith's hiding place.
These Valkyries are so babyish!
Using parents to threaten children—is this what you call a Valkyrie protecting world peace?
But... come to think of it, the Valkyries of Destiny are all Otto's old simp.
The dignified Bishop of Destiny, the protector of the world, keeps a bunch of beautiful female assassins to do his dirty work.
He is both the guardian and the destroyer of the world; the sins he has committed cannot be atoned even if he dies a thousand times.
If the upper beam is crooked, the lower beam will be crooked too; that's perfectly normal.
[He hurriedly shook the heavily injured Lilith awake: Sister, there's no time to explain, come with me and leave this place.]
You quickly picked up the heavily injured Lilith and tried to run outside, but this time, the pursuers sent by Schicksal were elite Valkyries, not the ordinary soldiers you encountered on the street before.
Besides, you're carrying a seriously injured sister who can't walk, so you can't run fast at all.
Seeing that she had become a burden to him, Lilith said weakly, "Jojo, put me down quickly, don't worry about me. Take me with you, and no one can escape!"
The suburban forest was dark and eerie, with the sound of countless pursuers' footsteps echoing behind you. You knew deep down that with the heavily wounded Lilith, you couldn't escape fate's grasp. Yet, even so, you ignored Lilith's pleas and resolutely carried her onward. If you could abandon your sister for your own escape, would you even be human?
[You said resolutely: No... We made a promise long ago that we would be together forever, and that we would never separate no matter what happened!]
Seeing that you would rather be captured than give up on yourself, Lilith called you a "fool." Deep down, she resented your foolishness, your unwillingness to abandon yourself, which led you into danger. But at the same time, she felt immense relief and joy. Lilith was an artificial life form in the laboratory, without parents or family. Thanks to your companionship, she felt the warmth of family and saw a glimmer of light in the darkness.
Seeing how selflessly she was going to sacrifice for him, she secretly resolved that she would not hesitate to give up everything for the sake of her most important family in the world.
Because you were carrying Lilith, you couldn't run fast at all and were quickly caught up by elite Valkyries in armor. Without hesitation, they snatched the heavily wounded Lilith from your arms, pinned you to the ground, and tightly bound your hands with special ropes.
You were pinned to the ground, and no matter how hard you tried, you couldn't break free. You could only struggle to lift your head as they carried your sister away, screaming in anguish, "No! Stop! Give me back my sister!"
The next second, you were struck hard on the back of the head by the Valkyrie and lost consciousness completely.
When you wake up again, you find yourself deep inside the confinement cell of Destiny 37 Laboratory. The walls are covered in pristine white tiles, and apart from a bed and a toilet, there is no furniture whatsoever.
[As soon as you regained consciousness, you anxiously searched for your sister, but perhaps the people in the lab were afraid that you and Lilith would escape again, so they separated and imprisoned you two.]
[During your detention, you were handcuffed and shackled. You attempted to escape from your solitary confinement cell, but there were no tools available, and the walls were exceptionally sturdy, specifically designed for your imprisonment. All your escape attempts failed.]
At this moment, a female researcher named "Irena" brings you a piece of bread and milk through the narrow window for today's dinner.
[Elena was the researcher who brought you to meet Lilith, and she has been responsible for supervising and managing you and your siblings ever since. Although she has remained indifferent to your plight because of her position as a researcher, she is different from other researchers who have become numb in their pursuit of truth; she still retains a conscience.]
[You ask Elena about Lilith's current condition. She's outside the iron gate and tells you that Elena has fully recovered thanks to the research institute's doctors, but the two of you will soon enter the "Iron Blood Project," where you'll fight to the death with your own kind in an iron cage until only one of you survives.]
Even if you and Lilith try your best to escape the research institute and break free from your fate, it's as if fate is playing a cruel joke on you; you still can't escape the destiny of killing each other with your own kind.
[Upon hearing the news of Lilith's full recovery, you breathed a sigh of relief.]
[You know perfectly well that Lilith is the most powerful of the 666 test subjects, and even if she participates in the "Iron Blood Project," she will definitely be the final victor.]
[And you, as the weakest of the 666 test subjects, are destined for a tragic end.]
As an android, you lack emotions and are not afraid of death, yet you still cherish everything in this world and hope to be with your sister forever. But since fate is inescapable, you have no choice but to accept it.
[At age 3, with the last two missing actors assembled, especially Lilith, the bloody battle among the 666 experimental subjects officially began.]
Since the "Iron-Blooded Project" officially began, you can hear the sounds of experimental subjects fighting each other in their cages coming from outside the confinement room every day.
They hold only one duel each day; the winner earns the right to the next life-or-death battle, while the loser is wrapped in a white cloth and sent to the crematorium to be burned to ashes.
[The taboo surrounding your imprisonment is that it's the only passage between the "Iron Cage" and the "Incineration Chamber." Every day, you see your fellow countrymen covered in white sheets being carried down the corridor by Elena and the others.]
Looking at those cold, blood-covered corpses, and the thought that I too would die meaninglessly like them, even though I already knew my fate was sealed, I still cowered in a corner, trembling with fear.
Finally, you understood the terror of death and the weight of life. You tried everything to escape the confinement cell and see Lilith one last time, but all your efforts were in vain.
On this day, you hear the usual sounds of a life-or-death struggle coming from inside the iron cage outside your solitary confinement room.
