Chapter 69 - Chapter 69: Otto, the Victim

—Honkai, a disaster that accompanies civilization

As a disaster bound to happen in this world, it is a suffering that humans will inevitably experience.

It is not incomprehensible to use Honkai as a symbol.

However...

Faced with this situation where both answers are similar to the correct answer, but there is no clue,

it is undoubtedly time to make a choice between the two.

"Let's decide by voting!"

No one had any objection to Mei's proposal.

Himeko, Theresa, Fu Hua, and Xiaozu chose D.

Kiana, Mei, and Bronya chose C.

The result was 4 to 3.

There was only one vote difference between the two.

Kiana and Bronya had no opinion on this result.

Mei naturally had no opinion, but before deciding on the answer, she still asked:

"Can you tell me what you think, Dean?"

There was nothing to hide.

Theresa said calmly. 

"Aren't you all in my St. Freya Academy? Since the answer contains the word academy, I naturally subconsciously chose this."

"Is that so..." Mei nodded slightly, her expression clear.

Although this approach involved some guesswork, they didn't have any clues about the question, so making a judgment through association was reasonable. It couldn't be called correct, but it wasn't necessarily the wrong choice either.

She looked at the other two who made the same choice, just as she had asked Theresa how she made her choice.

Himeko's reason was similar to Theresa's.

Fu Hua... chose randomly.

Book of Fuxi said it made the choice according to its own owner's logic.

Hmm... hearing this playful tone, Mei felt a little helpless, but said nothing.

After all, her attitude toward this answer was very similar to that of the two old antiques.

After asking the age-oriented group, Mei also turned her attention to Kiana and Bronya, who made the same choice as herself.

"So, Kiana, Bronya, what about you?"

"Yeah, I guessed!"

Kiana was very frank, and Bronya naturally followed suit in this question, not forgetting to tease Kiana in her words. 

"It's just like you, Idiot Kiana."

As a result, the two naturally started fighting and talking again.

Mei shook her head slightly, not caring, but focusing on the matter in front of her.

"Principal, I'll leave this question to you."

Although it seemed that only those who answered the questions correctly could get the reward box at the end, she and the others had no intention of competing for it.

It had always been: whoever was suitable to answer, answered.

For this question, since their reasons weren't very reliable, it was naturally most appropriate to let Theresa answer it.

"Yeah."

Theresa did not refuse, and whether it was Himeko or not, she made the final choice.

Fu Hua and Book of Fuxi still had no objection.

"I choose D."

Since the choice was made, it was time to respond with the result.

[Wrong]

[Correct answer: C. Honkai Impact 3rd]

Red flashed, and while confirming the result of the incorrect answer, it also marked the correct one.

Hmm, this was probably the so-called good start.

"Ahhh... I was wrong!"

Seeing that her choice was incorrect, Theresa couldn't help but frantically twirl her hair.

"Well... that was unexpected."

Himeko's reaction was calm. She crossed her arms and clearly didn't care about it.

Mei sighed, "After all, it's a multiple-choice question with no information. It's inevitable to get it wrong."

After that promising start with the first question, a while later, the second question appeared on the light curtain:

[2. Archbishop Otto Apocalypse, a madman who has lived for five hundred years, his wisdom and ability should not be underestimated.]

[In past years, he also experienced things that made him regret deeply.]

[Please select which of the following events Otto experienced and missed very much.]

[A. Let a vixen lure away his fiancée]

[B. Dressed as a woman and played Grand Theft Auto with his fiancée]

[C. Played a game about his fiancée but, unable to beat the opponent, so he pysically banned the opponent's account]

[D. Watched his fiancée being beaten by an immortal on the battlefield]

As soon as the question appeared, everyone except Book of Fuxi looked solemn.

This bishop with a mad plan could be considered their great enemy.

However, after seeing the series of answers...

Let a vixen lure away his fiancée?

"Has our bishop experienced this kind of thing?"

Himeko couldn't help laughing.

"Let a vixen take away his fiancée? I remember vixens refer to women, right? So, his fiancée was taken away by a woman."

"Why does this sound kind of pathetic?"

She was clearly gloating.

In the previous video, Otto's attempt to use her and her students had made Himeko feel very dissatisfied.

Now that she could witness Otto's past embarrassment, she could only feel delighted.

Theresa pulled at the corner of her mouth.

She didn't expect that her grandfather—who always got what he wanted and was powerful—had such an experience.

It was unbelievable.

"It's really funny."

Mei, who had put on glasses and entered her female Zhuge Liang mode, couldn't help laughing at the stark contrast, but while laughing, she didn't forget the matter at hand.

"But... I don't think the bishop would miss something like this, right?"

No one doubted this.

Who would miss a vixen seducing his fiancée?

A normal person would probably go insane just thinking about it.

Answer B: playing Grand Theft Auto with his fiancée—normal.

But after seeing the word cross-dressing, everyone's expressions changed.

Hey... wait a second?

Is our bishop of Schicksal actually a cross-dressing pervert?

Even the always serious Fu Hua—well, never mind.

Wearing women's clothes? That's nothing.

In the eyes of Fu Hua who had a more old-fashioned mindset, a man wearing women's clothing wasn't shocking at all.

Theresa, however, was shocked.

What? My grandfather actually did such a thing?!

Does Grandpa have any... peculiar hobbies?!

Thinking back on past impressions, and considering something else, Theresa couldn't help but shudder.

"This option..."

Mei seemed a little hesitant about this option.

The first option was too ridiculous to even consider.

Although this one was also ridiculous, maybe Otto had some strange hobbies.

Uncertain, Mei thought about it for a while and finally decided to keep this answer for now.

She looked at answer C.

"Playing a game about a fiancée, and because he wasn't as good as the opponent, he physically banned their account?"

Reading the general meaning aloud, Mei scratched her cheek in confusion.

Why does this sound like a naughty child who couldn't win and flipped the table in frustration?

As a senior gamer, Bronya criticized Otto's behavior without hesitation. 

"Otto must be a bad player. Bronya guarantees it!"

Kiana didn't feel anything about what Otto did. After all, the previous video leaks had dropped Otto's favorability score in her heart to minus 10,000.

However, she still felt pity for the unlucky guy who got physically banned and whispered. 

"I don't know who the unlucky guy is, but to meet a shameless guy like Otto while just playing a game…"

"Hmm..."

Theresa nodded with some empathy, but suddenly felt something was off.

Hmm... maybe it was just an illusion?
