In front of the church's prayer room, Jojo confessed without reservation the evil deeds he had committed against Aponia, and holding the cross, he devoutly asked, "Aponia, please tell me, will God forgive me for such a sinful person?"

The nun in white, sitting in the prayer room, was forced to recall her past with Jojo. She felt her face burning red and her whole body burning as if she were on fire. She clasped her hands tightly in front of her chest and stared straight at the thread of fate above Jojo's head.

"The gods will forgive you."

Aponia said calmly, "And I will also feel sorry for you, because you will die in ten days, my master."

Chapter Thirty-Four: Qiao Qiao, the Business Genius

Aponia can see the tightly intertwined threads of fate on others, thus foreseeing the future.

It's worth mentioning that her abilities differ from those of Su, who is also a mental perception-type warrior.

Su's ability can be described as prediction. He can use the Divine Key, Senba Ichijo, to observe other parallel worlds and predict the future based on the experience that "what has happened will happen again." The fate he predicts may not necessarily happen and may be changed due to human factors.

But Aponia's abilities are different. Her prophecies are based on a direct perception of human destiny. She herself has tried countless times to change the destiny she sees, but this often leads to the threads of destiny becoming more and more tangled and messy. The more she tries to avoid the prophecy, the worse the prophecy often comes to pass.

The only thing she gained from her life of defying fate was that fate could not be changed.

Since Aponia's prophecy is bound to come true, Jojo has no choice but to take it seriously.

Jojo knew that his death in the simulator was inevitable, but he still wanted to choose how he died.

At least try to be decent.

Ideally, when you die, you should hire the funeral parlor next door to provide a full range of services, including music, dance, and entertainment, for a grand and lavish funeral.

Qiao Qiao is currently in good health and has no ailments. Any doctor would tell him he could live to be 100. Moreover, his body is now close to that of a Death Warrior, possessing some of the powers of two Herrschers and superb martial arts skills. Killing him would definitely not be easy.

But fate is always unpredictable and full of twists and turns. Maybe Jojo will just go out and be reborn in another world by a truck, get killed by a pitchfork, or fall from the sky like in the movie Final Destination, suffering multiple fractures all over her body.

[Life Simulation Continues...]

On the first day of the prophecy, you threatened Aponia with the antidote.

[The day after the prophecy, you call Aponia and ask her to come and keep you company.]

On the third day of the prophecy, you locked Aponia in a secret room and took out many small toys to play with her.

You're almost dead, and you're still just lazing around like this every day?

How do you manage to sleep?

After simulating for three days, Jojo, as always, coerced Aponia to satisfy her desires, and then went to treat the Honkai patients.

Recently, the spread of Honkai disease has been accelerating. In order to maximize the number of 'copy' attempts rewarded by the simulator, JoJo has been making secret phone calls to Aponia more frequently, and Aponia has agreed to JoJo's requests in order to obtain more anti-Honkai serum.

[On the fourth night of the prophecy, you spent the day treating patients at the sanatorium, and as you lay in bed resting, the beautiful face of Aponia came to mind, and you longed to relax your weary body and mind.]

Option 1: Do it yourself.

Option 2: Call Aponia.

Without hesitation, Jojo chose the second option. Practice makes perfect, and he had already unconsciously become accustomed to his secret relationship with Aponia.

[You said when the call connected, "Aponia, I miss you. Will you stay with me for a bit?"]

[Aponia said hesitantly from the other end of the line, "But you're in the children's room right now. It would be terrible if they heard you. Why don't you come to my room?"]

Option 1: Agree to Aponia's request and go to her room.

[Option 2: Refuse Aponia's request and say, "I enjoy the thrill of being discovered."]

Neither of these were serious options, so Jojo decided to respect Aponia's wishes. Mainly, he had never been to Aponia's room before, and this was a good opportunity to find out.

You agreed to Aponia's request, opened the door, and slipped out.

When Jojo opened Aponia's door, she noticed that the furniture inside looked as if it had just been tidied up, arranged very neatly, and the dim orange light enveloped the entire room like a quiet and mysterious veil.

In the deepest part of the room, Aponia sat with her legs together on the made-up bed, as if she had been waiting for Jojo for a long time. She wasn't wearing her usual black nun's habit, but rather a revealing, sexy, and daring sheer nightgown. Beneath the transparent fabric, one could vaguely see her fair and delicate flesh. Thin straps tightly bound her smooth, white skin, showcasing her voluptuous and proud figure to the fullest.

"Aponia, why are you wearing that?"

Seeing Jojo's surprised expression, Aponia assumed Jojo didn't like her outfit and lowered her head somewhat aggrievedly, saying, "I thought you would like it, so I bought this dress especially for you..."

"Hmm, I really like how you look," Qiao Qiao said with a smile. "I just didn't expect you to be so proactive. So, what do you think? Are you falling for me?"

"I just felt that you've been treating patients these past few days, so... I wanted to treat you a little something," Aponia said, her face slightly flushed. "Please don't misunderstand."

Aponia wore this outfit not because she had fallen for Jojo, but because Jojo was now the only hope for saving the patients in the nursing home, so she wanted to please him in this way so that he would continue to help her save those poor children.

[Upon hearing Aponia's words, your response was...]

Option 1: Slam the door and leave: "Since you don't like me, there's no need to demean yourself!"

Option 2: He said with a wicked grin, "It's okay, I'll make you truly fall in love with me soon!"

Logically speaking, a good person would definitely choose the first option to persuade the lost girl, but unfortunately, JoJo is not a righteous person who kills all the good guys in The Sims, so there is no reason for her to give up the benefits in front of her.

Jojo slowly closed Aponia's door, grinning mischievously as she said, "It's okay, I'll make you truly fall in love with me soon enough!"

The next day, Qiaoqiao walked unsteadily, leaning against the church wall. After several days and nights of intense fighting, he felt completely exhausted, as if his body had been hollowed out.

Aponia is probably still bedridden.

Damn! Am I going to die from charging?

Jojo would recall Aponia's prophecy and feel a pang of panic.

Dying in Aponia's bed doesn't seem impossible, but it's a little different from what I originally imagined.

Honkai Consciousness: "Apostle of Honkai, how can you, who indulges in women every day, join me in destroying human civilization?"

Hearing the voice from the depths of her heart, Qiaoqiao knew that the Honkai consciousness was restless again and wanted to cause trouble. She earnestly deceived him, saying, "Honkie, you don't understand. This Aponia will become a powerful warrior known as 'Heroic Warrior' in the future. She is a strong person who can rival the Herrscher. I am now using my beauty to seduce her. In the future, she will definitely become a great help to you and me in destroying the world."

Upon hearing JoJo's words, the Honkai Consciousness was shocked. It could indeed sense the extraordinary talent that Aponia possessed. If it were to be developed in the future, it would definitely become a major adversary of the Honkai Consciousness, just as JoJo had said.

“My apostle, how did you know this girl possessed such great talent?”

Seeing that the Honkai consciousness had taken the bait, Qiaoqiao continued to deceive: "You don't need to worry about that. For a special warrior like me, it's possible to foresee the future and all sorts of things."

The Honkai consciousness didn't doubt JoJo's words much. After all, the Honkai was omnipotent, and it wasn't impossible for JoJo to use it to foresee the future.

Honkai Consciousness: "My apostle, you have managed to bring the future powerful hero under your command with just a few bottles of potion. You are truly a business genius."

Seeing that the Honkai consciousness completely believed her explanation, Qiao Qiao couldn't help but chuckle to herself: "Not at all, it's all what I should do."

Honkai Consciousness: "Since you've been working so hard to destroy human civilization, I'll have to offer you a reward to help you out."

[Congratulations, host, you have obtained 'Stamina Enhancement Essence'.]

A vial of medicine suddenly appeared in Qiao Qiao's palm, and he immediately checked the data that appeared on it.

This item can permanently enhance the user's physical attributes, increasing their stamina up to ten times its original level.

Qiao Qiao stared at the effects of the potion, completely stunned. She knew that if she didn't use her Herrscher powers, her physical abilities were about the same as an ordinary B-rank Valkyrie. But if she drank this potion, Qiao Qiao's stamina would definitely surpass most A-rank Valkyries, though she might still be a little short of S-rank Valkyries.

However... the packaging of this medicine looks exactly like the kidney tonic from Qiao Qiao's previous world.

Can this thing really permanently enhance physical strength?

I'll try a little first; if I get poisoned, I'll just have to start over.

The moment Qiaoqiao drank the kidney tonic, she suddenly felt like parched land nourished by sweet rain. Her whole demeanor was refreshed, and her body burst with abundant energy.

Seeing that Jojo had regained her power, the Honkai consciousness became extremely excited: "Very good, my apostle, quickly use my rewards to conquer more heroes and let them fall into the embrace of Honkai!"

Qiaoqiao was speechless when she heard the words about collapse.

You can't even control the healers under your own command, yet you want to poach Yingjie?

You're really overthinking it.

Chapter Thirty-Five: rnm, refund!

In the sanatorium, a patient suffering from Honkai disease lies pale and weak, his body covered in red bloodstains. You take out medical equipment and inject anti-Honkai serum into his body.

The man struggled in excruciating pain, but was bound by strips of cloth and unable to move. Then, the bloodstains on his body slowly disappeared, and his pained expression gradually subsided.

As you pack up your medical equipment to leave, the patient opens his eyes and grabs your hand, saying, "Thank you for saving me, Father."

You hold the patient's rough hand, a smile playing on your lips: "No need to thank me. Saving lives is my duty. Take good care of yourself, don't worry, I will definitely overcome the Honkai disease."

Hearing your comforting words, the patient's tense nerves suddenly relaxed, and they fell into a deep sleep like a child.

[Aponia, listening quietly to your conversation from behind, said with a strange expression, "You're clearly a selfish and wicked person, so why are you so gentle with patients and children?"]

Hearing Aponia's question, you smiled slightly and said, "Aponia, I'm not a born evil person either."

"I admit I used despicable and insidious methods to get you, but it was the only way I could," you said with a helpless smile. "I risked my future and my family, braving the dangers of losing them all to hide and protect the patients at the sanatorium, and you got what you wanted by helping those lost sheep. This deal was the only way I could get you."

[Aponia clasped her hands tightly across her chest: "But feelings can't be traded, Jojo."]

Qiao Qiao glanced at her coldly upon hearing this: "I know I can't truly win your heart this way. Then you can wait until the hundred-day period is up, or until I die as prophesied, before you go find another man."

Upon hearing this, Aponia's eyes filled with extreme despair. She shook her head and said, "No, my body is already tainted. I don't think I'll ever marry another man..."

You teased him flippantly, "That's fine too. Maybe in a hundred days, even if I don't threaten you, your body won't be able to live without me."

Upon hearing this, Aponia's face darkened, and she said, "That day will never come."

[After speaking, Aponia's ethereal gaze fell on the unconscious patient beside her, and she said, "Jojo, you said you want to completely defeat the Honkai Disease, so how exactly should you do it?"]

You explained simply, "To stop the Honkai disease from infecting more people, the source of infection must be eliminated."

Upon hearing this, Aponia frowned slightly: "You mean the sanatorium?"

You shook your head and said, "According to my investigation, the source of this Honkai epidemic in Twilight Street is not in the sanatorium... but outside."

Qiao Qiao felt something was strange. She had given almost all the children in the sanatorium anti-Honkai serum, which should have successfully stopped the spread of Honkai disease in the sanatorium, but the Honkai infection in Twilight Street still showed no signs of weakening.

Later, he realized that Honkai disease, like the zombies and Honkai beasts, is a sign of the coming of Honkai. Therefore, the recent outbreak of Honkai disease in Twilight Street is likely unrelated to the sanatorium, but rather to external factors, which may foreshadow the arrival of a large-scale Honkai.

That is, the fifth Honkai.

The rampant Honkai in Twilight Street and other streets was merely a prelude to the arrival of the Fifth Herrscher.

The way to end the Honkai disease's continued rampage is quite simple: just kill the Fifth Herrscher to curb its spread.

Otherwise, even if Qiao Qiao could produce more anti-Honkai serum, it would be of no use.

The Honkai disease epidemic has left the people of Twilight Street in a state of constant fear. No one knows when they will fall ill and die in their bed, or be killed as a source of infection by the Fire-Chasing Moths.

The transmission route of the Honkai disease is unknown, and there is no cure. The anxious populace cannot place their hopes for dealing with the Honkai disease on science, and can only seek divine protection.
