"Master Otto, with all due respect, I'm afraid that Master Sakura doesn't have the attachment to her new life that a normal person should have."
Rita's eyebrows gradually relaxed, and her expression became somewhat solemn.
Not surprisingly, Otto sighed, leaned back, turned his chair, and looked at the scenery outside the window.
"It's as expected. In fact, if there is a proper and legitimate reason, she would be happy to die."
Just as he has survived until now because of Karen, Otto understands Yaesakura's mentality with empathy - she has no attachment to life or the world, but simply maintains the status quo for Karen's expectations, nothing more.
Then, he looked at Rita, who looked worried, and said with a calm smile:
"Don't worry too much. She won't give up her life so easily. Just pay more attention to her and tell me if you find anything wrong."
"Yes, Lord Otto!"
Otto watched Rita leave.
Afterwards, he had no intention of continuing to delve into the progress of cracking the Thousand Worlds One Vehicle, but instead had to consider Yaezakura's next arrangement.
A person who has nothing to live for, is extremely powerful, and is temporarily a friendly person, should he be sent to the grassroots to hone his skills, or stay at the headquarters to study common sense and psychology, or - try to be sent to Saint Freya to feel the warmth created by the efforts of his grandchildren? Anyway, Yaezakura will definitely like Theresa, right?
Otto thought carefully.
Otto did not object to the fact that he suddenly had to worry about something. On the contrary, this long-lost feeling was unexpectedly quite good!
……
"Welcome to the Destiny Library! I'm Susanna. How can I help you?"
As soon as Yaesakura walked into the library, a very familiar blonde girl jumped out from the pile of books and held her hand enthusiastically.
It must look familiar!
This is the vest that Otto used in the Battle of Misty City!
Yaezakura's beautiful face reveals a calm and gentle smile, like the legendary Yamato Nadeshiko, which is fascinating.
"Hello, I'm here to look for books. Are you the administrator here?"
"Ah, no, I was assigned by the Archbishop to organize the library! I have been here for three or four months. I have cleaned the entire library and rearranged all the books, but I have not received any new orders! Oh, to be honest, I was so anxious some time ago that I even suspected that the Archbishop had forgotten about me! Hahaha!"
Susanna smiled in a familiar and nagging manner, chattering non-stop.
The corner of Yaesakura's mouth twitched slightly.
"Well, is it possible that Mr. Otto has indeed forgotten you?"
"Of course it's impossible! The Archbishop is wise and brave, and he must have his reasons for doing anything! It took me a long time to figure it out. It must be because I was too impatient in my previous work and made too many mistakes. The Archbishop arranged the task of organizing the library to hone my attentiveness and patience and correct my character that always makes mistakes! In short, if there is a mistake, it must be me!"
Susanna raised her little head and said proudly.
Yaesakura's mouth twitched again.
"Uh, well, how should I put it..."
"Hehehe! Are you also sincerely in awe of the Bishop's thoughtfulness? Alas, the Bishop's wisdom is indeed so unfathomable. But I have reflected deeply on this, and have been working hard recently to make the library more and more organized. I wonder how long the Bishop will want to train me? No matter what, as long as I keep working hard, I will definitely get the Bishop's approval!"
A pair of big rabbits that are enough to drive immortals despair, jumping non-stop with the girl's lively movements. The clear chattering voice and lively and cute expression changes make up a unique girl that makes people smile.
≡q裙+*尔∑⑧{}陆″玖+)(*^伍≥就[弎/○℃骑()*She is Susanna, a confused young lady whose family has a mine and who will inherit a billion-dollar fortune if she fails to be a Valkyrie.
"puff!"
Yaesakura finally couldn't hold back and burst out laughing.
Then, Susanna seemed to have realized something. In Yaesakura's warm and beautiful eyes, she blushed and lowered her head, saying shyly:
"Yes... I'm sorry, because no one has come to talk to me for a long time, and I got a little carried away. Well, I wasted your time, so what book are you looking for? I am very familiar with this library now. We’ll find it for you right away!”
"Don't worry, you reminded me of... two very important old friends. This is the book I'm looking for, it would be great if you could help me."
"Oh, don't be polite to me, just call me Susanna! Okay, let me take a look at these books, come over here!"
"I'm Yaesakura, if you don't mind, you can call me Sakura."
The two people with completely different styles talked and laughed as they walked into the depths of the library.
Chapter 148: Game settings, change!
After the trio that Otto arranged to take care of, Yaesakura now had another person she could talk to.
The good news is that Otto finally remembered Susanna, whom he had forgotten in the library.
The bad news is that Otto casually arranged another study mission for her and continued to detain her at the headquarters.
However, Susanna was very happy. On the one hand, she felt that Otto recognized her work in the library and arranged for her to further her studies. On the other hand, she could live next to her idol, Yulandel, so she was naturally very happy.
Yaesakura continued her life like this, playing the role of a desireless, easy-going Far Eastern priestess, and submissively accepting everything arranged by others.
'This is the role I put the most effort into.'
'The memories and emotions of Yaezakura and Hidamaru remain in Jizo's soul. I savor and chew on all of them, and integrate them into my own memories and emotions... Sigh, am I using Yaezakura to get close to Otto, or is Yaezakura using me to fulfill her remaining obsession?'
'Is it Zhuang Zhou who dreams of a butterfly, or is it the butterfly who dreams of Zhuang Zhou? That is the question.'
On a quiet and leisurely afternoon, Yaezakura wiped the blade of Jizo's soul and looked at the ice-blue eyes reflected on the black sword, and suddenly felt a little sentimental.
A perfect lie is nine truths and one lie, and so is a perfect acting.
Each character needs to be integrated with its original color. Although they all clearly know that they are An Qi, they will be confused occasionally. An Qi is not a natural actor, and if this kind of investment is repeated again and again, will she really not get lost?
"what's on your mind?"
"Just daydreaming. Good afternoon, Mr. Otto."
Yaesakura raised her head and smiled sweetly at Otto, who would show up from time to time to chat with her. Her eyes sparkled with infinite softness like gems.
Then, Yaesakura stood up and brewed some tea and placed some snacks according to Rita's instructions over the past few days.
The two of them sat opposite each other across a small table filled with the aroma of tea, next to the sunlight outside the window, with familiar smiles on their faces, as if they were old friends who had known each other for many years.
"Mr. Otto, are you done for the day?"
"Fortunately, you have to balance work and rest. If you are too tense, you won't be able to do things well."
"It's best not to let Yulandel hear this. She will definitely refute you on the spot."
"Please spare me and keep it a secret. I can't do anything about that child."
The two chatted and laughed while sipping their tea.
The tea art that had been mastered to a certain level made the black tea in the cup have the precise temperature and taste of Rita and Amber, which made Otto raise his eyebrows with satisfaction.
"It seems that you have learned well! But why are you so reluctant to change out of this miko costume? Do you have a god to serve?"
"There are no gods. They are just illusions created by ignorant ancient people. I am just used to it. Besides, Karen once praised me for looking beautiful in this dress."
With a blush of embarrassment, Yaesakura lowered her head in embarrassment.
Otto felt that he could imagine that scene perfectly. Karen was always straightforward, and naturally expressed her emotions and desires in an open and unrestrained manner, but for a reserved Far Eastern shrine maiden, this must have been a huge destructive force, right?
No wonder Karen was able to win over Yaezakura.
Speaking of which, this can be said to be a story of a rich young lady from the city seducing a simple and ignorant little country girl, right?
If you think about it this way, at least in terms of emotions, Yaesakura can be considered a victim!
"Hahaha!"
Otto laughed out loud in great joy.
He knew that if he spoke these rational analyses in front of Karin, the clumsy and stubborn guy would be so angry that his face would turn red, and then he would try to make excuses with nonsense.
Yaesakura tilted her head.
"I always feel that you are thinking about something weird!"
"No, don't talk nonsense, don't wrongly accuse me! Come to think of it, you seem to be getting along well with Susanna recently?"
"It's okay. It's mainly because of her simple and lively personality. I always feel that she is a bit like Karin, and also a bit like my sister. Maybe this is the commonality between simple people?"
"Really? That's a good thing. I hope she can help you find some joy in life."
Otto shook his head and sighed.
Unfortunately, it was difficult for him to find the shadow of Karin in her anymore. After that stage, and as the plan progressed, he no longer had the mood to do so.
Yaezakura nodded obediently, but she didn't seem to care much, and it seemed more like she agreed casually.
Afterwards, they talked about Karen a lot more. Otto talked about Karen's childhood, and Yaezakura talked about the details of Karen's recovery in Yaesu Village, and the good atmosphere of the guests continued.
Otto never had any deep love or possessiveness for Karin. Apart from the fact that Yaezakura was the direct cause of Karin's death, he had no other complaints against Yaezakura.
"By the way, Miss Amber has recently taught me how to play games! I saw a very popular game called "Karen Fantasy", which is said to be a game based on the story of Karen. I just downloaded it and registered an account!"
"..."
Otto's smile froze, and the hand holding the teacup froze.
Because the boss of the most difficult level of "Karen Fantasy", the insidious and cunning villain who runs through a large part of the story, is a pink-haired vixen named Yaesakura - this was a setting made at Otto's suggestion.
Otto put down his teacup and put on a serious expression.
"Delete it."
"Eh?"
"Delete it. Now is not the time to play the game. And it's just a gimmick of the game company. It has nothing to do with Karin. It will only disappoint you. Anyway, listen to me and delete it first."
At least, wait until I get the game company to completely change that stupid setting!
Otto maintained his businesslike smile and looked at Yaesakura firmly.
Yaesakura blinked blankly, and after a moment, she nodded reluctantly but obediently.
"Since Mr. Otto has said so, then all right."
"Ahem! Well, actually we have something important to do today. We have made a major breakthrough in cracking the Thousand Worlds One Vehicle. Next, we need someone we can trust to go inside and break through the blockade. I have decided to let Yulandel take the stage, and the ability of Jizo Yuhun is quite useful and may be of critical use, so you can go over and help when the time comes."
Otto changed the subject in a serious tone.
Everything happened just as he expected. Yaesakura's attention to "Karen Fantasy" quickly disappeared, and was replaced by an extremely serious expression.
"I understand. If I can help, I'll do my best."
"Well, then you should delete those time-consuming games as soon as possible, and try to practice the control ability of Jizo Soul in the next few days."
"Yes, Mr. Otto."
"I have other things to do. I need to go look for Amber, so I'll leave first."
Otto stood up and left calmly.
But after walking out of the room, the smiling face was suddenly replaced by gnashing of teeth in anger and shame.
"amber!!!"
The battle of wits between the lazy archbishop and the serious matron is about to begin again, but Yaezakura no longer needs to worry about those things.
She is now concerned with other issues.
"Theoretically, since I possess the power of control, the power of erosion, and the power of the void, shouldn't it be easy for me to master the One Thousand Worlds? "
"But I can't use it. I'm counting on Mr. Otto to use it to observe the tree of imaginary numbers and make theoretical preparations for attacking the tree!"
'There is another question. Can Su, who is in the Key of God and is carrying out the Hengsha Plan, recognize our true identity? He is also an expert in the field of consciousness. If we break into the illusion and he recognizes us, and Yulandel finds out, we might explode.'
"So, I can't really do anything. Watching is the limit."
The Angels were regretful, but they were also mentally prepared.
Yaezakura stroked the cold blade of Jizo Mihun and sighed silently.
"Yulandel, you have to handle the rest on your own. It's not difficult for you anyway. Go get the key for Mr. Otto!"
Yaesakura curled her lips, she sheathed her sword, got up and went to the kitchen to prepare dinner.
It was agreed that Yulandel, Rita and Susanna would come to her house for dinner tonight, so she had to prepare a delicious meal for these beautiful girls!
Chapter 149: Carelessness
The Thousand Worlds and One Vehicle is of great significance to Otto, so he certainly won't delay on this matter for too long.
On the third day after informing Yaezakura, the next step of cracking the code, or the first activation experiment of Senkai Ichijo, officially began.
