Characters Present

Otto Apocalypse

Kevin Kaslana

Start

Two men sat facing each other within the insulated void bubble above the sands.

🔇 N/A

Golden light flowed and danced within the confinement created by the Void Archives, the first Divine Key.

🔇 N/A

Otto observed the man before him. His inhuman gaze was devoid of emotions, memories, or warmth.

🔇 N/A

Yet it made Otto a little nostalgic. None dared to belittle him ever since he became the Overseer.

🔇 N/A

But this man belittled everything. Schicksal and Otto himself meant nothing to him.

🔇 N/A

Nevertheless, Otto welcomed his arrival.

🔇 N/A

Otto

All hail the World Serpent.

🔇 N/A

Kevin

......

🔇 N/A

Otto

Haha, I was just trying to lighten the mood before we begin our friendly conversation.

🔇 N/A

Otto

In any case, I humbly welcome the Lord of the World Serpent. I knew I would eventually meet you.

🔇 N/A

Otto

I know who you are and what you did. I am an admirer of your great deeds and exploits.

🔇 N/A

Otto

Father to the Kaslanas, hero of the Previous Era, Sire of the World Serpent, and enforcer of Project STIGMA...

🔇 N/A

Otto

Kevin Kaslana, did you come here to declare war on me?

🔇 N/A

Kevin

No. The World Serpent does not intend to fight Schicksal.

🔇 N/A

Kevin

I came here for one thing - your support for Project STIGMA.

🔇 N/A

Otto

Any request will come with a price. What are you offering in exchange for my support?

🔇 N/A

Kevin

......

🔇 N/A

Otto felt his hesitation.

🔇 N/A

A great way to start the negotiations, he thought.

🔇 N/A

He still commanded the initiative. But he would need to be extremely careful in his next move...

🔇 N/A

Kevin

I don't need your promise. You either submit, or you will be destroyed.

🔇 N/A

Otto

...Oh no, that wouldn't be wise. Despite your great powers, my Schicksal runs this entire world.

🔇 N/A

Otto

Imagine us doing everything we can to fight you. We will be defeated, but not before taking up your time.

🔇 N/A

Otto

You stand to lose precious time, and then you will fail to finish your project before the End of Days.

🔇 N/A

Otto

I believe that is something you wish to avoid. It would be wiser for us to start proper negotiations.

🔇 N/A

Otto

After all, I do not wish to fight the World Serpent.

🔇 N/A

Kevin

What do you want?

🔇 N/A

...He made an inquiry.

🔇 N/A

He succeeded in steering the dialog to the intended direction.

🔇 N/A

Otto

I too have a project that I wish to finish before the Final Herrscher arrives.

🔇 N/A

Otto

But the Honkai is intensifying at a rate faster than we think. The great enemy is evolving with our civilization.

🔇 N/A

Otto

Unpredicted Honkai incidents are happening across the planet, a sign of pending Imaginary dimensional bleed...

🔇 N/A

Otto

The 5th Herrscher will soon appear.

🔇 N/A

Kevin

Guilty as charged.

🔇 N/A

Otto

You have a duty. I have a wish. None of us will be getting anything we want if the Final Herrscher arrives.

🔇 N/A

Otto

*Both* of us are losing time. Instead of war, I believe... a partnership would be a far better choice.

🔇 N/A

It was time.

🔇 N/A

Otto had waited for this very moment. His chances looked good... but Otto must ensure success.

🔇 N/A

Otto placed the deciding gambit.

🔇 N/A

Otto

I need something you have but no longer need. It will help me achieve my 500-year old wish.

🔇 N/A

Otto

In exchange... the individual named Otto Apocalypse shall disappear from the path of the World Serpent.

🔇 N/A

Kevin

So... what do you want then?

🔇 N/A

Otto

You hold the "Beacon" to the Cosmic Juggernaut, the Key of Infinity...

🔇 N/A

Otto

The Key is incomplete without it. That pioneer sealed you and that Beacon within the Sea of Quanta 1500 years ago.

🔇 N/A

Otto

The Beacon is required for orientating the Key and activating its zeroth power.

🔇 N/A

Kevin

You wish to reach the Imaginary Tree.

🔇 N/A

Otto

Correct! The Key is not just an observation tool. It replicates the Void Queen's powers to create a route to the Tree.

🔇 N/A

Otto

The instant of eternity, the start of the end, the origin of laws and truth...that is where I want to be.

🔇 N/A

Kevin

You know what will happen if you do that.

🔇 N/A

Otto

We both know what will happen. This is precisely why this negotiation is valuable to both of us.

🔇 N/A

Otto

Give me the beacon, and you shall have everything - zero opposition, access to resources... and time.

🔇 N/A

Kevin

......

🔇 N/A

Silence. A fathomless silence engulfed the world. Otto bated his desires and thoughts for the Serpent's answer.

🔇 N/A

He had made his offer. He only needed to wait for the results.

🔇 N/A

And Otto was no stranger to waiting. He had been waiting for a long time, and he could simply keep on waiting.

🔇 N/A

Otto's gaze was fixated on the silver-haired man. He finally spoke.

🔇 N/A

Kevin

Any request will come with a price. What do you offer?

🔇 N/A

Otto

Haha! Very well!

🔇 N/A

Otto

A fair proposal. Fairness is the basis of everything. This great partnership needs an equally great offering.

🔇 N/A

Otto

I know you care little for human power, wealth, knowledge, or technology. Only one thing is worthy in your eyes.

🔇 N/A

Otto

You will receive the perfect puppet for controlling Schicksal after I leave.

🔇 N/A

Otto

I hereby offer to return the Void Archives to you.

🔇 N/A
