Chapter 139 Because of Fate

"It is precisely because it is irreversible and unchangeable that destiny is called destiny."

The heavy words circulated in his mind, like a heavy hammer, hitting his heart, which was so proud of having just established reverse entropy.

The green light exudes a coolness, which flows along the skin and quickly penetrates into the heart and lungs.

Mikael once thought that his enemy was Honkai, the Herrschers who were born one after another until the end.

But it was wrong, all wrong.

Could it be that without him, humanity would not have been able to defeat the first twelve Herrschers?

Could it be that with him, mankind can defeat the end?

Why...why?

Even though they have won all the battles, are they still going to an irreversible ending?

It's because of fate.

"Come around, what have you changed, Mikael?"

He may have changed the fate of some individuals, such as Carol, Aldemir, and...these people who are against entropy.

Oh, he also changed the location where the Fourth Collapse occurred - according to the progress of the world bubble, the Fourth Collapse should have occurred in a small coastal border town in southeastern Europe, which is where Kosma should be.

But the power of the Fourth Herrscher remains unchanged - what does this mean?

Honkai was supposed to send down different Herrschers based on the development of civilization, but in this timeline that was changed by him, it was somewhat unrecognizable...

The world line is constantly converging. The appearance of the second and fourth Herrschers, the scope of the third collapse, and the power of each Herrscher... Every step is based on the corresponding destiny, and they are perfectly matched. ,impartial.

And now, the Sixth Herrscher's qualified body is right in front of him. Rather than believing that the butterfly effect will prevent her from becoming the Sixth Herrscher, it is better to kill her now. That will at least change the established destiny...

Can……

Ah, and...

Captain Himihu...

I know all the endings, but it seems like nothing can be changed...

"Da... da... da..."

The sound of footsteps interrupted his meaningless reverie.

A pair of slender but strong arms held his weak body, lifted him up, wiped his face clean with a wet hot towel, and then the two of them sat side by side against the cold wall.

"Tell me what happened. This is... the first time I've seen you so vulnerable."

Mikael tilted his head and said nothing for a long time.

"..."

Mebius looked at his profile in the dark green light and shadow in the laboratory.

In just one year, the boy who still had to pretend to be calm in her laboratory had become so mature.

His hairline is very low, his forehead is small and his eyebrows are sunken. His messy bangs easily fall under his eyebrows. His nose, sideburns, jaw, and even the outline of his entire face have lost their former roundness and become as round as The cut with a carving knife is generally straight and clean.

He was very handsome, but if Mebius remembered correctly, this would not be considered a good appearance by either a European fortune teller or an ancient Chinese fortune teller.

This means that he will experience ups and downs in his life, and despite all his efforts, he will only achieve some trivial achievements.

Mebius didn't believe this at first, but now he has to believe it.

The person in front of me... he should still be considered a boy, right?

I still remember that in the two months after the Second Collapse, he would go to her laboratory almost every night, just to do one thing - to exercise the ability to use the core of the Second Herrscher of Mimicry.

There was no way, the simulation training room was monitored, and the dormitory was even less likely. Only her laboratory was safe and hidden, and it would not attract the special attention of the Fire Chaser due to the Honkai Impact reaction.

She watched him fall from the cracks in space in various strange ways, watched him be bruised and bruised by the turbulent flow of space, watched him almost fainted and collapsed on the ground, and could only signal her by twitching his fingers. Give him some Honkai energy...

"well……"

And when he finally gained the power to protect everyone, he was abandoned by the person he wanted to protect, like a loser.

Now he finally has a group of people who can let him show his back without reservation...

But that belated joy was buried by new sadness before it even had time to last for a whole morning.

Mebius felt a strange emotion spread in his heart.

She was convinced that she was just using Mikael to do various research from the very beginning. Yes, she was just treating him as a tool.

The reason why I am willing to follow him to form this counter-entropy is just because I don't want to let the previous research results of more than half a year go to waste - absolutely!

Pity... She shouldn't have this emotion... When has she ever felt this kind of emotion before...

Mebius stretched out his hand, but stopped when he was about to touch Mikael's cheek, and Mikael was not even aware of this.

"Hey! Mebius, what are you doing!"

A voice in her head tried to stop her, but it was too late.

She suddenly reached out her hand and roughly pressed Mikael's head, then grabbed his short hair and made him rest his head on her lap.

"……Thanks."

Mikael finally choked out two words.

"You'd better talk about it... If you don't say those things out, I feel like you will suffocate them to death sooner or later."

Her voice was filled with inexplicable disgust, but it sounded comforting.

"Oh……"

Mikael exhaled heavily and shook his head instinctively, but finally opened it unconsciously:

"Mebius...you said...if you knew in advance that a person would become a Herrscher...would you kill her?"

"ah……"

Mebius's first reaction was - is he testing me again?

No……

"You mean that girl?"

She pretended to be nonchalant.

"How did you know she would become a Herrscher? Can you Herrschers still feel each other? Anyway, I didn't see anything abnormal when I did a physical examination on her."

"Well...that's another story...a story involving the time when Hua, I, and Qianjie disappeared."

Mebius gently bit off the nail of his right index finger, then pressed the pad of his finger on Mikael's temple and rubbed it gently. All these actions happened too naturally and too quickly, so fast that the two people involved were shocked. The subjective consciousness has no time to react.

"Could it be the plot of an old science fiction movie? Traveling to a parallel world in the future?"

"……Um……"

"Bang!" She sneered, and her first reaction was to grab Mikael's ears, but suddenly she realized something, and finally she pointed her finger at his head and gave him a hard squeeze.

"Are you a fool? If you kill her, will the Herrscher not appear? This kind of behavior will only cause the Herrscher to be born in a completely strange individual. Instead of doing this, it is better to keep her under surveillance, so that you can Kill her... as soon as she turns into a Herrscher..."

At the end, Mebius finally realized something belatedly - Mikael is the Herrscher of Reason, and the Herrscher of Reason relies on his mind to fight. How could he not think of this?

so……

"So, if we kill her now, it won't have any effect, and we don't kill her - she will follow the guidance of fate and lead to her fate. You are sad because of this, right?"

"No, no, no, I believe that just saying this is not enough to make you uncomfortable enough to require more than thirty sedatives..."

"That is to say, among those who are destined to become Herrschers... not necessarily, Mikael, do you already know the ending of some people? For example... Alicia? No, if it is her, You can't be so calm. Hua? Or Himihu? Or...me?"

Mikael did not answer, but remained silent for a long time.

This silence left Mebius confused and made her feel even more frightened.

Suddenly, there was a wet and hot feeling on her thighs, and tears overflowed from the corners of Mikael's eyes, soaking her trousers.

Mebius was getting impatient.

She didn't know what was wrong with her today, but she actually said so many comforting words for the first time.

Fortunately, Mikael did not record, otherwise this would be evidence of her social death...

But...you guy cheers me up!

Do you want her to continue to comfort you?

Mebius promised that if Mikael said another decadent word, he would grab his collar and beat him severely.

For this reason, dark green arcs of electricity exploded behind her, and her hair began to fluff up.

Mikael sniffed and suddenly sat upright.

"Thank you, Mebius."

His voice still had a strong nasal sound, and he still called her Mebius without the suffix "doctor", but Mebius obviously noticed some changes.

If abandoning honorifics to some extent means either a close relationship or being rude.

She no longer thinks it was out of politeness.

"If she is destined to reach the ending determined by fate, then at least let her live a more comfortable life during the journey."

After saying this nonsense, before Mebius could chew it carefully, Mikael changed back to a business-like and annoying face:

"Mebius, what difficulties did your fusion warrior plan encounter?"

"Ah! This! I just lack living human samples for experiments."

"...Which Honkaimon gene?"

"Yaksha."

"..."

"Why, you won't still insist on that useless moral bottom line, right?"

"Who do you fancy, Mebius?"

"Alicia."
