Chapter 73: Thank You for the Feels, Sent by Rita

"First of all, congratulations to Delta on her safe return. At the same time, I would like to express my sincere gratitude again for the sacrifices and efforts you both made in the experiment. Your efforts are of historical significance. From now on, the entire Schicksal and even the whole world will remember your contributions."

A few days later, in the former branch director's office, Otto met with Delta and Wendy, who had already recovered with a friendly smile.

Wendy bowed and responded quickly:

"Your Excellency, Overseer, you are too kind. This is what we should do!"

At the same time, Wendy reached out to Delta, who was paralyzed in a wheelchair, and forcibly pressed down her head.

Yes, Delta was still in a wheelchair. Before the final experiment, she was only pretending to be paralyzed and could still move around. But after completely integrating the Gem of Desire, she was truly paralyzed.

After all, the power obtained from the gem is not much different from the power of the living Herrscher, but the burden falls on the Herrrscher of Dominance themselves.

Although Delta can control the power freely and does not need to bear the gem's spiritual pollution, her flesh and blood body cannot handle it. Now, everything below her neck is weak and soft, making movement very difficult.

But in general, compared to this powerful power and the high output of Honkai energy, this price can be almost ignored by Angel.

Delta was lost in thought, with her habitual absent-minded expression and dead fish eyes, it was a look that made Wendy anxious.

'You idiot, be serious! No matter how much you don't like socializing, you have to understand the seriousness of the matter! Do you know what you did before? Are you going to die?'

'Eh... It's so troublesome...'

The two communicated with each other through their eyes. Wendy looked at the pair of empty dead fish eyes that hadn't even focused. She felt depressed and desperate, and then she forced a smile at Otto:

"She is not very smart, don't worry about it."

"Hahaha! Okay, okay, I naturally knew Delta's personality before I came here. She is very good like this, I don't mind. But what we are going to say next may not be suitable for more people to hear. Wendy, can I talk to Delta alone?"

"This... Yes, Overser! And Delta, you should be more serious. If you are still so rude, I will deal with you tonight!"

Wendy forced a smile and gave Delta a murderous look.

The biggest leader had spoken, and Wendy could not disobey. She also knew how valuable Delta was now. It was reasonable to assume that Otto would not give excessive punishment—at most, confine her for a period of time. Anyway, Delta is a slacker; it's not a big problem for her.

Wendy walked out of the door, and in the crack of the door that was gradually closing, she looked at Delta's silhouette helplessly and worriedly until the door was completely closed.

"Is this guy okay? Although Lord Otto is wise and brave and cares for the Valkyrie, Delta is really decadent and hopeless. Even if I ask you, at least be more careful this time!"

Wendy stood by the door, holding her forehead and sighing tiredly.

But from her self-talk, it was not difficult to hear her respect and good impression of Otto.

After all, whether Otto decisively pretended to hold her hostage to stimulate Delta, or turned around to block the attack for Wendy in that critical moment, he perfectly demonstrated the quick wit and responsibility that the Archbishop of Schicksal should have.

That perfect demeanor is really bright and dazzling! At least, it is completely enough to fool Wendy.

"Miss Wendy, don't worry. Miss Delta will not be punished for the former branch chief and other damages to the Oceania branch. The bishop wants to talk to her about future treatment and arrangements. Nothing more."

Wendy looked in the direction of the soft and pleasant voice and found that Rita, wearing a seductive maid outfit, was standing next to her.

The first thing that caught her eye was the tall and graceful figure, followed by the soft snowball that made her sigh and was out of reach. This coveted body, wrapped in a cool and sexy maid outfit, formed a stunning picture that made people's hearts beat.

She was obviously a heroic and warlike S-rank Valkyrie, yet she was wearing a maid outfit for labor. Why could Rita Rossweisse be so astringent!?

Wendy muttered in her heart, but immediately asked:

"Lady Rita, did the Archbishop tell you this? Could it be that you have discussed the treatment of Delta in advance? Can you tell me?"

"Fufu! Miss Wendy, just call me Rita. I think we are already friends, right? You don't need to worry about Miss Delta. She will be fine... In fact, this is why I came to you. The situation between Miss Delta and the former branch director is far more complicated than you know." Rita's smile dimmed, unable to hide her regret and pity.

Wendy tilted her head blankly:

"Hmm?"

...

More than ten minutes later, in another conversation room, Wendy received Otto's "Delta Diary" record file.

"Lady Rita, oh, Rita, what is this?"

Wendy changed her title under Rita's disapproving eyes. Although she was a little uncomfortable, she was more concerned about the situation Rita had mentioned before.

Delta and the branch director—was there something hidden that she didn't know?

"You can read it first, and I will explain it to you later. Just try to be restrained. Everything is over after all." Rita said with a gentle smile.

Wendy secretly thought she was a weirdo.

Not only was she full of riddles, but she was also an S-rank Valkyrie who always wore a maid outfit and showed special respect to her and Delta, two A-level girls. Could she be a fanatical maid cosplay enthusiast?

Wendy couldn't guess, so she could only open the file as Rita had said.

The childish writing style was very consistent with Delta's innocent style of writing with dead fish eyes. Obviously, there was not a single word about blood and tears, but it portrayed an extremely deep and dark world.

Wendy's hands soon began to tremble.

The color on her face and lips gradually faded, replaced by a pale color caused by overwhelming anger.

"Bang!!"

After a long time, Wendy suddenly smashed the table in the room with a punch. She raised her head, her clenched fists making a cracking sound, her eyes flashing with terrifying murderous intent, and she trembled in disbelief:

"Isn't this... Delta's diary?"

"It's a pity."

"How dare they! Delta never told me these! That girl was so... I don't believe it! No way, how could it be possible?"
