Honkai impact 3rd: I Use Everything of Yours to Love Me

"It's not about what I want, but what you should do. Our Apocalypse family has the most advanced research facilities.

We can support your research into why your teacher is so strong, and all you need to do is ask your teacher for a tiny bit of information."

There was no hint of coercion in Nicholas's words, but they were filled with it.

Otto clenched his fists, his nails digging into his palms.

If hatred could kill, Otto would have already killed his father hundreds of times over.

He didn't understand how his father could be so despicable.

Otto didn't give him an answer, turning around and leaving directly.

"My child, I believe you will make the right choice."

"..."

No answer, only faster footsteps.

Returning to his room, Otto tossed and turned, unable to sleep.

Kallen or his teacher, choosing Kallen or betraying his teacher.

This question left Otto unable to make a decision.

By the next day, Otto had stayed up all night, his eyes bloodshot, and due to his naturally weak constitution, his face was still pale.

But he forced himself to go to Kallen's house.

"Damn, kid, even if you're excited, you didn't have to stay up all night, did you? Why don't you go get some sleep?"

Francis looked at Otto, afraid he might drop dead the next second.

"No need, Uncle Francis. I'm here to see my teacher. They should be here, right?"

"Oh, they've already taken Kallen to train. You should be able to find them at the usual training spot."

Seeing that Otto had his own ideas, Francis didn't offer any more advice.

After telling Otto where Chang Yuan and the others were, he went about his own business. After all, as the head of the family, he had many things to attend to.

Once he got the location, Otto immediately headed to the usual training spot.

Kallen was already doing weight training.

"Teacher, 500 pounds is really heavy!"

Doing push-ups with a 500-pound sandbag on her back, Kallen shouted.

This was not a weight someone her age should be able to handle!

"You need to get used to this weight quickly, otherwise you won't even be able to carry that weapon."

Thinking of a certain Oath of Judah, that thing was not light by any means.

Chang Yuan even had reason to suspect that Theresa's short stature was due to carrying that thing every day.

"But you won't tell me which weapon it is. Give me a hint, and maybe I'll be more motivated, Teacher!"

After completing 100 push-ups, Kallen was finally exhausted.

"Not bad, you managed 100. But you're still far from me."

"Haha, Teacher, it's easy for you to say."

Hearing Chang Yuan boast, Kallen rolled her eyes at him.

The gap between people was bigger than that between humans and dogs.

"Teacher, I need to talk to you alone."

Otto's appearance interrupted their conversation.

"Oh? What is it?"

Seeing that this matter needed to be kept from Kallen, Chang Yuan waved his hand, letting Kallen rest for a while.

He and Elysia followed Otto to a corner.

"Teacher, here's the thing. Last night, my father..."

It took a few minutes for Otto to explain everything that had happened the previous night.

This was the conclusion he had reached after careful consideration.

He believed that his teacher would definitely have a solution.

"Hmm, I might disappoint you. Your teacher and Elysia aren't researchers, so we can't help you with this."

"Is that so..."

Otto's eyes visibly dimmed.

But then Chang Yuan's lips curled into a slight smile: "But then again, it's not like there's no way."

"???"

"Teacher, can you not joke about something so important? This is really serious!"

Seeing Chang Yuan like this, Otto knew he was being teased.

"Alright, the joke's over. Actually, your problem is easy to solve. Don't you just want to get stronger and live longer? Doesn't your family have that relic?"

Clapping his hands, Chang Yuan stopped joking and looked at Otto.

"Teacher, are you talking about that thing the Sage left for our ancestors?"

"Exactly. Actually, that thing is called the Void Archives. It contains all the technological knowledge of the Previous Era. What you need is inside, but there's one thing you must remember.

The knowledge inside should only be known by you. Don't spread it, or else the Honkai will grow stronger, and then it will truly be a disaster."

"But Teacher, that thing doesn't seem to recognize me. Almost everyone in the family has touched it, but no one has been acknowledged."

Hearing this, Otto was first surprised, then somewhat dejected.

"That's simple. Take me to see it."

Rolling up his sleeves, Chang Yuan was already thinking about how to catch up with the Void Archives.

After all, there was a real AI inside.

In the future, that AI would gradually take on Otto's appearance, but that didn't stop him from giving it a beating now—if it didn't behave, of course.

"Alright, Teacher, follow me."

Hearing that his teacher had such abilities, Otto eagerly led Chang Yuan to where the family's sacred relic was kept.

"Young Master, this is the Apocalypse family's restricted area. Even you cannot bring outsiders here."

Two family members guarding the area immediately stopped Otto.

Otto glanced at them, then at Chang Yuan.

In the next second, Chang Yuan knocked both of them out.

What a joke, he wasn't some oppressed dragon king. There was no way he would endure such humiliation.

Then he directly took Otto inside.

Once inside, Otto led Chang Yuan straight to where the Void Archives was kept.

Seeing the golden cube, Chang Yuan smashed the glass with a punch and grabbed it.

Just as he was about to forcefully refine it, a voice came from the Void Archives.

"Hey, Vice-Captain Chang Yuan, can you not be so violent?"

"Tch, if you hadn't spoken, I would have had a reason to rough you up. Anyway, quickly acknowledge this blond kid. Oh, and no tricks. Vill-V told me about your backdoor."

"...Understood."

At this moment, the Void Archives felt like cursing.

How could its creator have told someone else about such an important thing? Even if this person was your friend, it shouldn't be!
