No one had ever expected that something as ridiculous as this would actually happen.
Otto had completely disappeared.
During this year, Otto would also occasionally disappear from the public eye for a few moments. However, it wasn't long, maybe once a month or so, or a few tens of days for 3 months.
As long as Otto disappeared from his position. Usually Amber is the one who takes on all the tasks, and follows every instruction that has been left by him.
Otto usually contacted Amber using Schicksal's special network, and exchanged information with the outside world to ascertain whether Schicksal was doing well today, or whether there might be a problem that his presence needed to deal with immediately.
Now...
Because Otto had cut all connections unilaterally, and made Amber confused, not knowing what to do. According to the contents of the written letter written by Otto, now the person who will lead Schicksal in the future is Thea herself.
Blyat! What's the difference between occupying a temporary position, or serving as Schicksal leader forever? You're not afraid of me rebelling against you?"
"I now understand why that dog while negotiating, he smiled very broadly at me at that time. When I became Saintess, my fate was already sealed."
"This is a hidden trap... I'm careless..."
Thea, who was sitting on the "Overseer" chair, could only helplessly massage her dizzy forehead.
The problem of Schariac's house that has many tasks piled up is still unresolved. Now, coupled with Schicksal's problem, her task became even more and more.
Who would have ever thought that the responsibility of leading a gigantic organization like Schicksal would be thrown around so easily like this?
The Anti-Entropies might just be beggars if they knew they could get the Schicksal leader position by asking.
As expected by Otto. This man's thinking is completely beyond common sense.
What is he planning right now?
"Then, I shall temporarily be under your command, Highness Saintess." Amber pays tribute to new leader Schicksal.
Thea waved her hand: "No need to call me Highness Saintess, just call my name as usual."
"Very well, Saintess Thea."
"....You caught Maria's illness?"
"No, good manners are necessary in the eyes of the public. A title in a name shows who you really are right now. I think adding that title is very important to increase your prestige." Amber gave a very reasonable reason.
"Uhh... Just do what you like."
Thea also felt very tired with all this nonsense. She was too lazy to argue now.
Calming her agitated heart, and crossing her fingers in thought. Thea asked Amber one more time.
"By the way, when was the last time you saw Otto?"
Amber immediately answered her: "The last time was a month ago during Saintess Thea's induction to become a Schariac house Saintess. After giving me a few tasks that I needed to do, and having completed all of them, I just noticed that Overseer Otto had disappeared without a word for quite a while. this was my negligence."
"It turns out that he had disappeared that day..." Thea complained helplessly.
Like a player who already knows that he will definitely win. Whether he's here or not, it doesn't change anything.
He had already left the stage before the show itself started.
"...Let's just forget about all this for a moment. I have to do what I have to do first. Amber, please prepare an announcement for all the valkyries in Schicksal headquarters for the next few days. Additionally, three days later please hold a press conference for me through the valkyrie channel that we will start the Stigma project."
"Since he's really throwing all the responsibility on me, then I won't hesitate. Use Schicksal's entire resources to make an announcement to the whole world. Let those ignorant humans begin to understand what the horrors of honkai really mean."
"The first stage of the Stigma project, will soon begin."
____
Three days later...
Schicksal without Otto's presence, became a little excited by Thea's global announcement.
In the first stage of the Stigma project, Schicksal's valkyries would first obtain the stigma type-valkyrie she had made, and allow the strength of all Schicksal's valkyries to increase by one level.
In this implementation, the program will be divided into two parts, and all Schicksal valkyrie will get this announcement notice first.
....
"[A new announcement has come out from Schicksal. The collaboration between the research team of the Schariac House and the Apocalipse House has succeeded in making a new breakthrough that will open a new chapter in history.]"
"[This morning, Thea Schariac, Saintess of Schariac house, announced that the mass stigma was successfully produced, and the first wave of stigma-giving test would be led by Saintess Thea herself at Schicksal headquarters directly.]"
"[She also announced that every member of the valkyrie family is welcome to register, and they will be added to the priority list for type stigma...]"
....
"{Since the second honkai war, we discovered how weak we humans are when fighting honkai.}"
"{Now, the era has changed. We no longer need to fear the honkai who will threaten the safety of our family.}"
"{With the advances in technology we have, the stigma has now been successfully mass-produced, and can be implemented on all ordinary humans, as well as valkyries. The resistance to honkai energy within all of you will be greatly increased, and now you no longer have to worry about your family members being threatened to turn into zombies due to the honkai energy.}"
"{The first wave given the stigma will be distributed to all Schicksal valkyries, and their family members. For the second wave, hospitals from Schariac and Schicksal branches of various branches around the world will be opened for free to the public no later than 6 months from now.}"
"{Valkyries, believe in the power of our civilization. Humanity will definitely defeat the honkai!!}"
....
In Siberia...
Aurora, who was watching Thea who was having a press conference on her communicator screen, couldn't help but click her tongue in awe.
"You really did. Always like this, always doing great things without telling anyone."
Drink the warm coffee that Bella just brewed. Aurora continues to surf the Schicksal network, and she finds that Saintess Thea's press conference, and the Stigma project, have become the main topic of conversation on the platform network.
Many valkyries were talking about this excitedly. This news spread like a virus.
Aurora just stared at the comments that kept scrolling on her communicator screen with an indifferent gaze.
However, as someone who has extremely high honkai energy resistance, and also has a stigmata within her body. Aurora really didn't quite understand why all the valkyries were so excited to receive this news.
Just as ever said by someone who hurt the most. Humans will not empathize with others if they don't feel the same pain.
For Aurora, this news didn't interest her much, and there was no need to be excited. But for other people, an example of which would be the valkyries continuing to fight the Honkai beast, this was already a matter of life and death.
Everyone's resistance to honkai energy is very different.
Honkai energy is really terrible because it can make someone die very quickly if exposed too much. But, if a person possesses high enough resistance and manages to control the honkai energy within their body, then their body will also be strengthened by the honkai energy to a level that surpasses that of an ordinary human.
This is how the valkyrie was born. A person who has a fairly high honkai energy resistance, and has physical fitness that surpasses that of ordinary humans.
Now, with the artificial stigma provided by Schicksal for free which can increase the user's resistance to honkai energy, of course all the valkyries will go crazy.
A B-rank Valkyrie can become an A-rank Valkyrie after obtaining an artificial stigma. An achievement that even most B-rank valkyries couldn't achieve in their lifetime.
This artificial stigma, too strong.
"I don't know how she's going to solve all this mess. However, the current me isn't a member of the Immortal Blade squad anymore. this is all not my problem."
Watching from the monitor screen, a scene was recorded which was extremely chaotic as many members of the Valkyrie family entered Schicksal's headquarters in a hurry. Aurora, who saw the many valkyries in charge of traffic control, was overwhelmed, and she smiled broadly for some reason.
Watching other people suffer can really lift your mood in the morning.
It's a good spectacle~
"How comfortable to enjoy lazy life like this. Stay away from the crowds, and let your head go blank."
Drinking the coffee in her hand, and looking sideways, at the telescope that could see Cocolia's orphanage in the distance. Aurora, who had completed her task, just shrugged her shoulders indifferently.
Now, she just needed to enjoy this time of solitude in peace.
"Bella, tonight I want to eat chicken nuggets. Please prepare for me."
"Order accepted my queen! I will make it immediately!"
Watching the small version of Bella, keep flying around in the kitchen with great flexibility, and do whatever orders she wants. Aurora who found the nostalgic feeling like back then, could only smile gently.
"It's nice to have slave."
Aurora drank coffee, and exhaled hot steam from her mouth comfortably.
I feel like my grammar today is really broken. I don't know what's wrong, but I know it's wrong. My Dao heart is too high because reading a lot of mtl novels is broken, to the point that I can't look down anymore.
Rip my main language :(
Anyway, please help me my ancestor reader!
