[ Kallen continued her acts of robbing the rich to help the poor.
]
[ During the day she cuddled up with you and Otto, and once night fell, she transformed into the pure white phantom thief, vaulting over roofs and leaping across walls.
]
[ This period of time was Kallen’s happiest time, and also the dreamlike moment when she truly felt she was helping the people with her own strength.
]
[…
]
[ Under your intentional or unintentional guidance, Kallen’s technique of “never leaving empty-handed as a thief” grew increasingly proficient.
]
[ But as the saying goes, if you walk often by the river, how can your shoes not get wet?
]
[ No one could avoid unexpected events from happening, and whenever that time came, you and Otto would step up to clear the siege for Kallen.
]
[ After seeing Otto’s method of clearing the siege, you unconsciously prayed in your heart, hoping that Kallen would encounter more accidents.
]
Under the night, two fully armored soldiers closely chased the pure white phantom thief, or rather, chased those two large bags of “spoils” in the pure white phantom thief’s hands.
If nothing unexpected happened, this chase caused by an accident would continue for a very, very long time.
However, in just the span of a corner, the pure white phantom thief vanished without a trace.
Replacing her was a noblewoman dressed in a green formal gown — — her figure was unsteady, tears at the corners of her eyes, looking as though she had just been bumped into by someone.
Those two soldiers panted heavily, looking at each other in dismay, not daring to act rashly for a moment.
But remembering the matter of the pure white phantom thief, they moved their steps together to a place a few meters in front of the noblewoman.
“Excuse me, what happened to you?” one of them asked, plucking up his courage.
Hearing this, the noblewoman first put on an act of sobbing softly twice, then said pitifully:
“A weird white woman carrying things bumped into me, and then fled in that direction.”
The voice was beautiful, yet it pointed out a clear path for the two soldiers.
And the two soldiers, thinking they had obtained important information, did not delay and immediately ran towards the direction pointed out by the noblewoman.
For a long, long time.
Until those two soldiers had completely run far away, Lucien finally revealed his figure.
Completely disregarding Kallen hiding on the roof of a street lodging, looking at this “noblewoman” Otto by his side, he only felt the corners of his mouth twitching frantically.
Seeing Lucien like this, Otto cast a charmingly sultry sideways glance at him and said clearly:
“Laugh if you want to laugh.”
As those words fell, Lucien was as if triggered by some switch, the corners of his mouth that hadn’t been suppressed much to begin with curled upwards frantically, finally brewing into a wild laughter that disregarded his image yet didn’t dare to be too loud.
Fairly speaking, Otto, the cross-dressing big boss wearing a green formal gown — no, “Madame Green Lily” had extremely good physical appearance conditions.
Under the gentle moonlight, the noblewoman’s slender and graceful silhouette was perfectly outlined.
She wore a hand-sewn verdant ceremonial dress, topped with a hat of the same color adorned with light green lilies and light green feathers, appearing dignified and elegant.
A head of soft, silky blonde hair poured down like a waterfall, hanging around her waist.
A pair of emerald eyes resembled blue-green lakes filled with sparkling stars in midsummer, indescribably dreamy and profound.
A pair of cherry lips were lightly pursed, as if the next second they would utter some heart-hooking sweet words, stirring endless imagination.

Good-looking.
But the moment Lucien thought of this being Otto, he didn’t feel it was good-looking at all; he only wanted to laugh, and even wished he could laugh himself to death.
It was just like how “Frieren: Beyond Journey’s End” turned into “Gifted Furongwang”, no matter how you thought about it, it was hard to hold back.
“Holy crap bro, no, holy crap!
Bro!” While speaking, Lucien’s laughter didn’t stop, laughing in hiccups as if he was about to suffocate, “You are way too realistic, right?”
Finished speaking, he stretched out his dragon-claw hand, thoroughly experiencing that pair of small steamed buns hanging in front of Otto’s chest.
Although Lucien had never touched them before, he just felt that this pair of fake breasts from goodness knows where felt very real.
It was just a pity that before he could grab them a few times, Otto gasped sharply and extended a jade hand to slap away his unruly large hand.
“Sorry, sorry,” Lucien thought his actions had annoyed Otto, so he quickly reined in his smile and apologized, yet he ultimately couldn’t help it, “Sorry, Madame Green Lily, hahaha…”
[ Regarding this night concerning Madame Green Lily, you kept laughing, and didn’t even stop when you returned home.
]
[ Otto looked at you laughing so hard you looked nothing like a human, feeling somewhat exasperated in his heart, yet he also started laughing along with you.
]
[ He wondered, just how long had it been since he last saw you laugh so happily?
]
[ As for Kallen, she successfully completed her righteous deed, and upon returning, she also very naturally joined in your laughter.
]
[ Look, a world where no one gets hurt was completed.
]
[ What?
]
[ What about the wealthy people whose gold coins were stolen?
]
[ Judging by all those wicked deeds they committed and the black-hearted money they earned, it was long enough for them to die ten times over; they’re expelled from humanity!
]
[ The pure white phantom thief distributed all the stolen gold coins to the poor and suffering people, yet the lives of the populace did not get better.
]
[ Hardship and oppression still existed.
]
[ Kallen did not stop her actions due to this confusion, but she also produced new doubts and thoughts.
]
[ Exactly what needed to be done for the people to truly become happy?
]
[ As for you and Otto, you weren’t too surprised by the reality that the immediate problem hadn’t been solved.
]
[ Both of you knew what kind of dark secrets were hidden beneath the glorious exterior of the organization Schicksal, and both of you understood that humanity’s greatest enemy was never the Honkai, but “humanity” itself.
] Visit g.com for the full chapter.
[ While the filthy and decaying old Schicksal exists, the people will never be happy!
]
[ The contradiction arose from within humanity, and must also end within humanity.
]
[ And if one wanted to solve the problem fundamentally, the only way was reform.
]
[ Only, had Otto, Kallen, and even you, truly prepared yourselves?
]
[ Looking across ancient and modern times, which reform ever needed no bloodshed and sacrifice?
]
[ Otto and Kallen didn’t seem to have grown to a height where they could shoulder everything yet.
]
[ You could handle everything well, and even now, you still could.
]
[ Remaining time for your existence maintenance: Four years.
]
[ Four years of time was long, long enough for you to arrange everything properly; yet four years of time was also too short, too short for you to carefully take a few more glances at Otto and Kallen, to watch their mutual growth.
]
[ But no matter what, you only had four years left.
]
[ You could help Otto and Kallen outline a hopeful future, just like you had done once before.
]
[ You firmly believed so.
]
[ Aside from that, you actually didn’t think everything Kallen did was meaningless.
]
[ There really were poor people who received help, and there really were people who revealed smiles and attained happiness because of Kallen’s righteous deeds.
]
[ Though suffering was as short as morning dew, it was also as brilliant as a spark.
]
[ The matters before the eyes were resolved, and the people before the eyes received help.
]
[ Because of this, it could by no means be said that Kallen didn’t accomplish anything.
]
[ As for that “big problem” at the end of everything, it was the “ideal” pursued by idealists throughout their lives.
]
[ You would accompany Kallen by her side.
]
[ Although you couldn’t guarantee that you would accompany her forever, at least you could still guarantee that you could accompany her by her side for the rest of your life, couldn’t you?
