Honkai Impact: Starting from Wandering with Kiana

The defeat in the war brought huge losses to Tianming. In order to make up for the losses in the organization, Tianming issued [Indulgences], which once again intensified the extortionate expropriation in the name of faith, and the conflict between the people and Tianming also intensified.

Because of the war, Otto's talents were discovered by the Destiny Organization and he became an important member of the Destiny Organization.

And Kallen...because of the defeat in the war, all the faults were pushed onto her. Kallen once became a sinner of Destiny and was hated by Destiny's management. They did not hide their malice towards Kallen at all, and even dared to ridicule Kallen in the street.

Every time Kallen goes out, Otto will find various reasons to stay with her and do his best to protect Kallen from these malicious intentions.

One day, Kallen and Otto were walking on the road. Kallen, who was looking around, accidentally bumped into a boy holding an apple.

The boy fell down and the apples scattered on the ground. Kallen quickly apologized to the boy and helped pick up the apples. Then she smiled and asked the boy if he was hurt.

But when the boy saw the Destiny Organization badge on Kallen's body, he was so frightened that Apple didn't even dare to run away in panic.

"Did you see that child's panic?" "You actually attacked such a young child for a few apples..."

People gathered together, pointed at Karen, and talked a lot. Maybe some people saw the truth, but after recognizing Kallen as a member of the Destiny Organization, they also joined the ranks of denouncement.

Kallen couldn't understand why this group of people were so polite to her not long ago, but now they kept criticizing her.

“Maybe it’s because destiny has been forcing people to buy [indulgences] during this period.

Destiny declares that everyone is born guilty and will continue to make new mistakes in life. These sins will remain with him throughout his life, and it is God's duty to purify their souls.

Therefore, those who did not participate in the war must contribute equivalent wealth to complete the redemption. "Otto saw the confusion in Karen's heart and explained to her.

Otto looked at the emblem of the Destiny Organization on Kallen's chest. This was once Kallen's pride, but now it has become the source of Kallen's sin.

Otto understood as early as the war that the enemy of mankind has always been only one thing, and that is mankind itself.

"User of the key, think carefully about what it is you want to protect." What the Red Mandarin Immortal said to herself appeared in Kallen's mind.

"Otto...do you think...this is right?"

Otto could not answer Kallen's questions. The truth was ruthless and cruel, which for Kallen almost destroyed her faith.

But fortunately, Otto knew Karen well enough and knew what to do at this time.

"Karen, why don't we go eat something first? Being hungry is not conducive to thinking." Otto tried to divert Kallen's attention.

As soon as Kallen heard about the food, her originally sad face immediately became happy, and she raised her hands happily.

"it is good!!"

Otto took Karen to a store called "greebuckscoffee". The two ordered a lot of desserts, but almost all of them were placed in front of Karen, while Otto only ordered a small cake and a cup of coffee.

Kallen ate happily. Otto only had a few sips of coffee when Kallen had already swept away the table full of desserts in front of her.

Otto put down the coffee in his hand and found Karen looking longingly at the small cake in front of him.

At this time, both of them were sweating slightly in embarrassment. Otto reluctantly handed the small cake to Kallen. Kallen accepted it sheepishly and then devoured it in one gulp.

"Ah~ I'm full, I'm full." Kallen patted her belly with satisfaction.

At this time, Otto would look at Karen silently. No words, but full of tenderness.

At this time, Kallen and Otto were attracted by a cry.

"Please, please give me a few more days." A woman, holding her child in her arms, begged a wretched preacher.

"Why haven't you bought the indulgence yet? Someone must pay for your husband's sins." The missionary Victor ignored the woman's pleading and still asked her to buy the indulgence immediately.

"How about... let Sasha work in the church for a while! This way your husband's sins can be redeemed." Victor showed a lewd smile, and then stretched out his hand to the little girl in the woman's arms.

But the woman bit Victor's hand hard, and the furious Victor raised his hand to slap her.

"What are you doing!!"

Karen slapped Victor's hand away with a slap, and then said coldly: "As a missionary of destiny, you actually dare to commit violence on innocent women and children in public! What on earth do you want to do!"

Victor recognized the girl questioning him in front of him. He sneered and said to her: "Oh? He was defeated outside, but he was very majestic towards his own people! Sir Knight~

What we are doing now is not just to clean up the mess you left!"

"What did you say?!" Karen looked shocked and questioning.

She wanted to continue asking Victor what was going on, but Otto held her arm.

Otto glared at Victor, who was immediately frightened and did not dare to move. Finally, he put down his harsh words and left immediately.

After Victor left, Kallen immediately went to help the frightened mother and daughter who were lying on the ground, but the woman just had an expressionless face and said to Kallen with a gloomy look, "Sorry, we are closed."

Then he took Sasha back to the store, locked the door, and ignored Kallen.

"How could such a ridiculous thing happen, where innocent people are forced to commit crimes..."

Karen was a little confused, but then she gritted her teeth angrily and clenched her fists. "And those who really deserve to be punished are not sanctioned at all..."

Snapped--

Otto patted Kallen, held up Kallen's face with his hands, and asked her to look at him. "I know what you're thinking, Karen. But the naive idea of ​​tit for tat won't change anything."

"Come with me, I have something to show you."

Holding Kallen's hand, Otto took Kallen away.

Otto held Karen in his arms, and the two of them watched a masked man speaking and performing on the stage in the crowd in the square.

That was Shakespeare who rose to fame during this time.

"A person can appear to be an angel.

But he may hide himself deep in his heart. "

.........

“They roam like poisonous snakes, and like hungry rats they feast.

For the sake of their own interests, they indulge without restraint, are greedy and extortionate, and have no regard for human life!"

Shakespeare drew out the sword from his waist and pointed the tip of the sword at Karen, who was wearing the Valkyrie uniform of the Destiny Organization in the audience.

"Let me, the righteous one with the sword, cut the throat of your cult!!"

Karen was shocked by Shakespeare's speech, and she felt like something was awakening inside her.

But then the crowd became commotion.

"Catch her, she is slandering destiny everywhere!"

A group of preachers rushed out of the crowd and knocked Shakespeare to the ground.

The Shakespeare mask that was pressed to the ground had been blown away, but she still shouted unyieldingly, "The people will not be deceived by you like this anymore!!"

Looking at Shakespeare who was about to be arrested, Karen was so anxious that she wanted to save Shakespeare.

Then she saw Shakespeare's mask being blown away.
