Otto’s research lab was located within the Helheim Institute at Schicksal Headquarters.
A luxurious train sat abruptly in the courtyard outside the institute, looking like an ordinary decoration.
Rita, who had followed along, said with a complicated expression, “Overseer, we always thought this was just placed here as part of your eccentric tastes.” “How could that be?
It’s just that I don’t come often, and other researchers don’t have the authorization.” Otto laughed it off.
“I’ve been coming quite frequently lately.
I’ve adapted things that happened in other worlds into scripts and had you all film them.” “…” As expected of you, Overseer.
The four of them boarded the Cosmic Juggernaut.
The interior carriages were not much different from an ordinary train.
When Otto led them to one of the carriages, a massive instrument was placed inside, with four thick mechanical arms pointed at a central platform.
Otto sat at the control console nearby.
“I occasionally do some research and found that the Cosmic Juggernaut has the ability to manipulate space, observe parallel worlds, and open channels to the Sea of Quanta.
So I made some modifications.
Exploring the Sea of Quanta is still somewhat dangerous, but salvaging things from it isn’t.” As he spoke, he activated the instrument he had built.
The four mechanical arms simultaneously shot out lasers, slowly opening a vortex.
Otto continued his introduction, “Last time, I successfully salvaged a skateboard.” Rita’s tone was faint.
“And then you rode that skateboard right off the headquarters, crashing through the Golden Hall.
Fortunately, there were no performances that day, and there were no casualties.” “But I was injured.” “Your Soulium body is more expensive than the repair costs for the Golden Hall.” Otto decisively shut up.
The three of them watched the platform.
First, a pair of round-toed leather shoes appeared, followed by pure cream-white silk stockings that clung to the lines of the calves.
A young girl’s figure appeared on the platform, her beautiful little face filled with panic.
“Um, I…
I’m sorry for the intrusion.” The girl’s voice was timid, like a startled fawn.
Kiana said curiously, “Seele?
Why have you turned into a smaller version?” Seele asked in confusion, “This big sister, do you know Seele?” “Of course I do.” Kiana said strangely, “I even know three of them.” “I know her too,” Frez said with a smile.
“We all know her.” Rita followed with a smile.
Otto looked up and said in surprise, “I actually fished out a person this time?” Seele hadn’t figured out the situation.
Ever since her body quantumized, she had been in the Sea of Quanta, trapped in a closed space and then swept into a World Bubble, constantly going through cycles.
Suddenly, she was taken away by a suction force and then appeared here.
“H-hello, everyone.
I am Seele Vollerei.” Appearing in a new environment, Seele hurried to greet them.
Her voice was soft and timid, and the way the four people were sizing her up made her a bit afraid.
“Overseer Otto, can you send her back to her previous world?
This girl might be from the same world as Himeko.” Frez spoke up, surprising Seele.
“Can you send Seele back?” She couldn’t help but get excited.
Although she didn’t understand the situation, it was clear that these people before her had brought her back unintentionally and were now planning to send her back to her own world.
If that were possible, it would be wonderful!
“I can’t,” Otto said, spreading his hands.
“I’ve only made a salvage device so far.
To find their world, I’d need a beacon, and then I’d have to make a reverse transmission device.
I need to observe other worlds, write scripts, and film movies.
I don’t have the time.” Otto’s heart and soul were entirely devoted to filmmaking.
He wanted to create an IP that would surpass the entire Homu series.
He had tried the Kallen Fantasy series before, but it had failed.
The Honkai series was his current top priority.
Seele became disappointed.
Seeing such a cute girl show a sad expression, Rita immediately stepped forward to comfort her.
“Overseer, you could refuse in a more tactful way.
That isn’t very gentlemanly.” “Fine, my mistake.
Because time is tight and the task is heavy, I can’t make it.” How perfunctory.
“But a guest from afar is still a guest.
Miss Seele can rest here for a while.” Otto spun his chair, his legs moving back and forth on the floor.
“Since you’re already here.” Frez stroked his chin and asked, “If you can salvage, can you make a similar reversal function?” “That would be an exile program,” Otto replied.
“For someone like Miss Seele who was brought back by my salvage program, exiling her wouldn’t mean returning her the way she came.
Without fixed coordinates, I don’t know where she would go.
It would be random exile; where she ends up would depend entirely on luck.
I can debug it right now.
I’ve salvaged some strange things before that were dangerous to keep here, so I exiled them back.” Kiana said, “In that case, I might as well open a channel to the Sea of Quanta myself.
Are you even reliable, old man?” “What do you mean I’m not reliable?” Otto was exceptionally angry.
“I am the Overseer of Schicksal!” “But didn’t you stop wanting to be it a long time ago?” “Back then, if I hadn’t failed to outrun my second sister and the others, I would have taken Kallen to the countryside to live in seclusion as a priest long ago!” “…So your position as Overseer was just something you picked up by default?” Otto spoke of things from five hundred years ago.
It was a warm, sunny afternoon.
He had already packed his bags and intended to go into seclusion in the countryside with Kallen.
However, his father led men to surround his residence, had him tied up, and he and his mother personally placed the crown symbolizing the Overseer on his head.
He was informed that Otto’s older brothers and sisters, upon learning that a new Overseer was to be found, had fled at the fastest speed possible, not wanting to sit in a position that required working all day.
After passing the position of Overseer to his youngest son, the old man also left with his wife, conveniently giving him the sacred relic guarded by the Apocalypse family for generations—the Void Archives.
With his brilliance, Otto successfully activated the Void Archives.
The Void Archives told him it was a Divine Key born from the Honkai, and its purpose was to guide the world toward a better future.
It promised that as long as Otto was willing to help it, it would help Otto and his wife gain permanent companionship.
And Otto believed it.
The Void Archives indeed allowed them to gain eternal life and live until now.
He also fulfilled the Void Archives’s expectations, making this world a beautiful place.
Even though he was beaten by Joyce, Dr.
Schrodinger, and his own subordinates in between, Otto was indeed a good person in this world, with a terrifyingly good temper.
However, that couldn’t hide the fact that he had become a pervert.
At this time, Seele spoke in a tiny voice, “Um, everyone, can you help Seele go home?”
