A person in Honkai Impact, just became a Decade Knight

Although I trust Ghost, she has a lot to deal with. For one thing, regularly sending out partial and accurate intelligence to those moles is troublesome enough.

and so……

"Something important?"

This is bad, what's with this terrible feeling of unease!

"Himeko, I'm sorry, but please continue working overtime after you finish these tasks."

"what?"

"Regarding the overtime period..."

Seeing the look on Himeko's face as if she were facing the end of the world, Theresa spoke in a very unusual, hesitant tone.

"It will probably end in about three weeks?"

"You...you...you...you...you!"

"Calm down, Himeko. These things happen all the time. Think about it, we, Schicksal, are an organization that fights against the Honkai and saves the world. It's inevitable that we'll have to work overtime occasionally, right?"

"Also, I just replaced this table, so don't smash it, or you'll have to pay my wages."

Listening to Theresa's words, Himeko, who was on the verge of a stroke, actually felt herself calm down.

"Okay, it's just overtime, I'll do it. It's just approving documents and handling basic tasks, it's not like it's my first time doing it."

"very good."

"But—you have to promise me one thing."

Recalling her experiences over this period, all the expressions on Himeko's face gradually disappeared.

"After becoming an A-rank Valkyrie, I investigated all of Schicksal's files. According to the files, my father, Ryusuke Murata, defected to Anti-Entropy and died in North America."

"Tianming must have uncovered some clues about this matter over the years. I hope that after this period of overtime work ends..."

"Use your intelligence privileges as a former S-class Valkyrie and head of the Far East branch to retrieve this information for me."

"I joined Destiny for this very reason, and now, so many years have passed..."

"I think I'm qualified to know the answer from back then, right?"

Hearing Himeko's words, Theresa responded calmly.

"Okay, I promise you."

Tensei did conduct a follow-up investigation into the fact that Murata Ryusuke died in North America after his defection.

It's not because the organization Destiny is humane, but because I want to know why Ryusuke Murata quit.

The main thing is... before Murata Ryusuke defected, he made a big splash.

After defecting, Murata Ryusuke took the key to the Fourth Divine Key and falsely claimed that Schicksal intended to use the Fourth Divine Key to create a hurricane to attack the country where Anti-Entropy was located.

He even used his authority within Destiny to actually set this command for the Fourth Divine Key, making Bishop Otto take the blame.

Now, if Himeko were to see that the father she admires is actually a despicable person who is trying to slaughter innocent people for his own unknown purposes...

Oh no, how am I supposed to explain this?

Chapter 417. I Didn't Lie

In the end, however, Theresa could only try to gloss over the matter.

Her friend Himeko Murata is a strong person, but even the strongest person would find it hard to bear such a strong emotional blow, no matter how hard they get through it.

When Himeko was young, her father was too busy with work to be by her mother's bedside when she passed away, which caused her to become estranged from her father.

After Himeko grew up, she finally managed to repair her relationship with her father, but a few years later, her father died.

Himeko has now entered Schicksal to investigate the cause of her father's death, and has devoted her life to it. She even almost died from Honkai energy eroding her body before this year.

And now, if Theresa tells her the truth about this...

I have a feeling that if Himeko were to become desperate, she could instantly become a Herrscher just by giving her a Herrscher Core.

"My request is that simple, Theresa, don't think of me as too fragile."

Looking at Theresa's calm expression, Himeko Murata said indifferently.

"The reason you kept it from me is probably because my father isn't as glamorous as I imagined. After joining Destiny, I've come to understand that it's all too common for Destiny scientists to have dirty dealings with powerful figures."

"This is a contract, and also a request between friends. Theresa, can I trust you?"

"We've known each other for so many years, you wouldn't lie to me about something so important, would you?"

"Of course not. I will definitely give you the truth about this matter."

Looking at Himeko's firm and sincere eyes, Theresa sighed helplessly and then said to her.

"It's not the right time yet, Himeko. Trust me..."

"I did not lie."

………………

Destiny Headquarters - Third Laboratory

After being invited to the Schicksal headquarters by Otto, Kanade Fueki naturally did not immediately reveal all the secrets of the "Resurrection Ritual" that he possessed.

After speaking with Otto Apocalypse, Kanade Fueki instantly realized that this man was definitely not someone who could be easily fooled.

His face was full of polite smiles, but there wasn't a trace of amusement in his eyes.

This man only sees Fumiko as a tool to be used. Once Fumiko loses her usefulness in his eyes, Otto will surely not let this dangerous being who once opposed destiny continue to live in the world.

Of course, he was the same.

Like Otto, Fueki Kanade also didn't want this dangerous man to continue living.

The secret ritual he needs to perform, the "Witch's Feast," requires four human sacrifices.

The reason he was able to gather four human pillars within a little over a year was largely due to his good luck. With the guidance of Haruto Soma, the number one human pillar, a series of events unfolded exactly as he had planned.

But things are different here. In this world where there is a phenomenon called "collapse," Kanade Fueki knows that her strength is weak.

In this situation, if the number of human pillars remains so scarce, then by then, he and Otto will likely become competitors vying for the human pillars.

The two of them peacefully splitting the human pillar together—this is obviously an impossible thing to happen.

The right way is to wipe out the enemy, take out all the human pillars, and then slowly test the Witch's Feast.

Although Fueki Kanade hasn't revealed much information yet, Otto isn't stupid. He can use the partial information to deduce the entire process of the secret ritual.

Therefore, he didn't have much time left.

During this period, he must first find a sufficiently powerful human sacrifice, then select a suitable location, and finally sacrifice the people of that region in order to revive his daughter, Fueki Rei.

As for the people of this world being different from those of that world, and not possessing magic within them...

Heh, all he needs to do is construct a magic circle to convert the Honkai energy of this world and the life energy within human bodies into magic power.

Compared to those difficult tasks, constructing an energy conversion magic circle was a piece of cake for Fueki.

“Dr. Wiseman, I have been waiting for you for a long time.”

Otto, inside the laboratory, looked at the man in the white robe and said with a smile.

“As the Archbishop of Schicksal, I, Otto Apocalypse, am a man of my word.”

"I don't expect Dr. Wiseman to tell me something as important as the [Resurrection Ritual] so simply. And since Dr. Wiseman is a physicist, he must know a law."

"Forces are reciprocal. I'm willing to pay the price for the secret you possess. I just wonder if Dr. Wiseman would be willing to make an equal exchange with me?"

“Oh, of course, that’s no problem. Since Mr. Otto is willing to cooperate with me, I will certainly show him my full sincerity.”

After a perfunctory handshake, the two immediately burst into laughter and looked at each other.

Then, in order to dispel Otto's doubts, Fueki Kanade took the initiative to speak to Otto.

“First, let me give Mr. Otto a demonstration. I need a list—everyone on this list must have tenacious vitality.”

"Whether you can capture him or not is not important. As long as you can give me the information, I can bring him back. Once I have gathered enough [strong individuals], I will definitely tell Mr. Otto what to do next."

"Oh? A powerful figure?"

Hearing Fimukura's confident words, Otto chuckled and said.

"If we're talking about strong individuals, I do know four powerful people."

"Siegfried Kaslana - During the Second Honkai Impact, he fought against the Second Herrscher, who had six Herrscher cores, and still managed to win. This person must be the strongest in the world."

First.

"Walter Yang—also from the Second Honkai Impact 3rd, he defeated the Herrscher of the Void, and even resurrected himself using the Herrscher Core after his death. In terms of tenacity, he certainly deserves a place in this world."

A second person has been found.

"As for the third person... Hmph, there's a brat named Gu Yu. He can defeat a Herrscher alone, and quite easily at that. In terms of combat strength, he's definitely the strongest person in this world."

A third one has been found.

"As for the fourth person—Kevin Kaslana, the strongest warrior of the previous era, fighting a Herrscher is as easy as drinking water for him."

The fourth one is here too.

"Siegfried is seriously injured and difficult to treat, Welt is corroded by Honkai energy and has difficulty moving, Gu Yu is exhausted and his combat power is very unstable, and Kevin's hands and feet are broken and have not yet healed."

"As long as we can capture these four people and bring them back to Destiny, then Dr. Wiseman will naturally be able to gather the powerful life force personnel he needs."

"Dr. Wiseman, please believe me."

"I did not lie."
