Chapter 24: The act of the fool
A/N: Turn up the volume!
Narrator POV
Y/N was currently at work, after all the time he didn't had time for it
His manager was overjoyed when he saw him, and what he do first?
Overwork him, yes, like any managers that want to keep their job
Y/N: Order 25 to 40 ready to serve! Going for order 41 to 60!
Worker: Roger that!
He got to work, before the TV of the restaurant turned on, and Otto was seen
Otto: Hello to our friends around the globe. I am the Overseer of the Schicksal organization, Otto Apocalypse. As some of you may already know, during our lifetime, the earth had periodically undergone so-called "Honkai" disasters
Y/N slowed down, the speech of Otto catching his attention
Otto went on, saying that since the disaster of 2 months ago, the Herrscher of Domination(even if he just called it Honkai manifestation), the Honkai activity have decreased greatly, and this signifies the start of a new era in the battle between humanity and Honkai. He is leaving his place as an Overseer to Theresa
But then, he smirked, as he knew what that would mean
Otto: And if we can see the chance to drive away the Honkai from the earth, it is all thanks to Y/N L/N
The said man froze, as his eyes widened, looking at the TV
Otto: None may know it, except his closest friends, but Y/N have managed to overcome the strongest threat of earth, and change the balance of the world by his presence alone
The customers and the workers slowly turned to him
Otto: And you are not convinced? Allow me to show you then
He showed footages of when he unleashed his Authority during the erruption of HoV a few months ago, and how, in 10 minutes, he traveled all around the world to kill 100,000 Honkai beasts, and save Humanity
And here came, the last words, that instantly provoked a reaction
Otto: Throughout Heaven and Earth, he alone is the honored one
And so, the broadcast stopped, as for Y/N....
Citizen: Honkai beasts are on the run! Everyone, flee!
The citizens were about to run, but Y/N walked past them, outside
The Honkai beasts, Templar types, roared, as Y/N slowly took off his apron
Y/N: Sorry, but I'm in a hurry right now
The beasts were instantly killed, as at the side, a Chariot jumped at Y/N from the side
Y/N: You're in the way
He used red to kill it, as a hole was made on it's face, and a shockwave happened all around the city
He totally was pissed, and it was understandable
Imagine if you go from random worker at a fast food, to the hero of Humanity, WITHOUT YOUR CONSENT!
Timeskip
They arrived to Kolosten, the previous Schicksal HQ
Theresa: I'm back
While she was being nostalgic, Rozaliya, Liliya and the 2 Seele's were doing their best to hold Y/N back from launching a purple into the old HQ
After the short introduction from Durandal, and saying Otto used the ruins of the Theater of Domination for whatever his plan was, they went to walk to Kolosten
And on their way, they saw a barrier
Theresa: What is this for?
Durandal: The Overseer said it is a barrier that keep every Honkai beast away, so that nothing can get in the way
Y/N: Hm.....
Everyone went through the barrier, but when it came to Y/N's turn
He was roughly pushed back, a shock hitting him fully
Y/N: What's this odd feeling?
Tesla: What's the meaning of this?! How come we can all enter but not Y/N?!
Theresa: Durandal, wasn't it a barrier that keep away Honkai beast only?
Durandal: That's what the Overseer and Amber said, yes. But Y/N being pushed back
Kiana: Wait... So when I said 'Honkai beast in disguise' all this time.... I-I was actually right-?!
Instantly got bonked in the head by Fu Hua
Fu Hua: Stop your nonsense
Kiana: I-I was joking...!
Y/N: I get it now.... This barrier prioritized power over look
Einstein: This explain why it's ugly, but not why you can't enter
Y/N: Otto lied, it isn't a barrier that keep Honkai beast away. It's a barrier that let anyone in and out in return for denying Y/N L/N's entry
Fu Hua: That means...
Y/N: As long as the barrier is up, I won't be able to do as I wish
Rozaliya: Eh?! That means we're not safe anymore?!
Y/N: You idiot, that means I'm staying near the Hyperion. Also, I can still sense everyone's Honkai energy even with the barrier. Just keep me informed about what's going on. I can feel but I can't see what's going on there
Einstein: We will Y/N. You can rest assured
Everyone left, as Y/N went to the Hyperion, and sat on the border, waiting
Y/N: Hm....
Y/N POV
I could actually break through it, but I would be left exposed, and since he have the Herrscher of Binding power, I can't take the risk
Y/N: Guess I'm stuck here until then....
I was looking at Kolosten, before letting a sigh
Y/N: I'm bored
I was about to get up, before I received a call
Y/N: Hello Hello
Tesla: Y/N, it's Tesla, do you hear me?
Y/N: Crystal clear!
Tesla: Good... We found another Otto
Y/N: Hm? A clone?
Tesla: Most likely. We will be coming back to the Hyperion along Doctor Nagamitsu
Y/N: Ok. I felt something a bit weird earlier. I'll be off a bit. I tell you all what I found when I come back
Tesla: Understood. Be careful on your way. You are our ace after all
The call cut, as I got up, an stretched a bit
Y/N: Alright.....
I walked to the location, at the opposite of Kolosten, at the border of the island
Y/N: I guess you're not here for a fight huh?
???: I am not here for that, and so are you
Y/N: You know that we can settle it right here and right now....
My eyes glowed, and so did his eyes
Y/N: It would save us a lot of time, Sovreign of World Serpent
Kevin: Y/N L/N, I have a question for you
Y/N: Shoot, I'll answer if I feel like it
Kevin: Why do birds fly?
Y/N: ...Because they can?
Kevin: That's not what I meant. Why did they had to fly?
Y/N: I don't know, I don't care. Keep your boring speeches to someone else
Kevin: Since you want it short... You and me are the same
Y/N: Huh?
Kevin: We both are tasked to save the world against a calamity far too great for us alone. We push everyone back, so that none of our dear ones are hurt. We are cursed to be forever alone. We are the single hope of Humanity
Y/N: .....
Kevin: Our battle is near, however, we don't need to fight. We can become allies, and fight together the Honkai
He offered his hand, for a handshake
Kevin: So, plea-
Y/N: Your impression of him sucks
He stopped, as I crossed my arms
Y/N: "Single hope of Humanity"? "Cursed to be forever alone"? "Far too great for us alone"? What's with this old speech? You really should have worked better on it..
My eyes glowed, as the appearence of "Kevin" changed to it's real one
Y/N: Otto
Otto: Ah, it seems you see right through me. You are no fool
Y/N: You just wanted to talk to me alone, without disturbance, huh?
Otto: That is right. Because you, Y/N L/N, have intrigued me since the moment you appeard
I stayed silent, as he continue
Otto: You have gained an Authority, evolved to the point that even Herrschers aren't enough to reach your level. You are pushing even the Hero of Humanity of the Previous Era to his last limit, just by yourself. You truly are a monster of a kind, Y/N
Y/N: So? What's your plan for me? Knowing you, and all the things I heard, you're planning something with the Imaginary Tree
Otto: Oh? You know of it? How incredible. And here I thought those doctors from Anti-Entro-
Y/N: I knew it before they told me about it
I could see in his gaze. He didn't expected that
Y/N: I know about the Imaginary Tree. I know about the Will of Honkai, and I know what's your plan. Even if you manage to reach it, I will be here to stop it. And even if the oppenent is the Will of Honkai itself, I won't lose
Otto: Heh.... Truly overconfident until the end. No thoughts about losing? Even once?
Y/N: Losing is for losers
Otto: Then, let us see each other in the next world, Y/N
He disappeard, as I was left alone
Y/N: Time to go back-
???: Just a minute~!
I was teleported instantly, as I was back in the white void, floating
Letting a sigh, I cross my arms, and looked back
Y/N: What is it this time, Yoggy? I was having a cool moment here
Yoggy: No need to be so cold, Y/N. I just wished to have a word with you
Y/N: What's up?
Yoggy: You have changed this bubble universe quite much, you know? The ending won't be the same than you know
Y/N: Oh really? Can't wait to see it then. And there's something else?
Yoggy: Yes, it's about those knowledge you gave me! I am having so much fun with it!
Y/N: That's good to hear
Yoggy: Oh, and all the outer gods are interested in you by the way, bye~
I was back to Kolosten, as my eyes twitched, getting annoyed
Y/N: You DAMN OUTER GOD BRAT YOU COULD HAVE STARTED WITH THAT!
I have to deal with a different ending, work, and other outer gods now?!
Y/N: Give me a GOD DAMN BREAK FOR FUCK SAKE!
Chapter 24: Finished
A/N: In the next chapter! WHAT DO YOU MEAN A 100% PURPLE?!
'Chapter 25: Sugarcoating'
Y/N: And fuck you!
