Chapter 115: Chapter 6: A Simple Plane Flying Over the Wall—The Turning of Fate's Gears.
Several months later...
"Finally, we're here. I wonder if they're xenophobic."
Arriving at the country where Otto lived, Chang Yuan looked at the guards at the city gates and hesitated.
If they were stopped or provoked, should he fight back?
But it seemed that wouldn't be necessary, as the two guards were white-haired.
"Is this Kevin's descendant? They seem to have the same sense of justice as Kevin."
"I don't know."
Chang Yuan didn't remember Kevin having any descendants.
But thinking about it, over a thousand years had passed, and Kevin hadn't become a MANTIS, so it wasn't impossible.
However...
Chang Yuan glanced at Elysia beside him and sighed.
"Let's go. Don't worry about that. Come with me. We need to witness an important moment in history."
Taking Elysia's hand, Chang Yuan immediately began running.
To be honest, Chang Yuan didn't know where this event would take place.
The original story had only mentioned it vaguely, with no specific location.
So now, they had to hurry and search randomly, hoping to find it.
Inside a walled estate, a young boy with golden hair, who looked like a girl, threw a simple plane he had made.
The plane flew over the wall and landed on the other side.
"Have you heard? The young master of the Apocalypse family is sickly and weak. He's not well-liked, so we don't need to bother too much with him. Just do the bare minimum."
"Really? That's great. We won't have to get up early to clean and take care of him."
Hearing their conversation, the young Apocalypse master didn't react.
He had heard such things countless times before, and they no longer affected him.
All he wanted now was to retrieve his simple plane.
However, being sickly and weak, he only made it halfway up the wall before losing strength and falling.
But he didn't give up and prepared to try again.
Just then, a figure appeared atop the wall.
It was a girl with braided white hair. She climbed over the wall and sat on it.
In her hand was the slightly damaged simple plane.
"It flew so high just now. Did you make this?"
"Yes, I did."
"You're amazing. You'll definitely become a great inventor in the future."
"!"
Hearing the girl's words, the young Apocalypse master's heart trembled.
So, he wasn't useless. He could be needed too.
"Too bad it's broken now."
The girl looked regretfully at the plane in her hand.
"If you want, I can make you another one."
The young Apocalypse master could hear the regret in her voice and offered to make her a new one.
But the girl didn't answer. Instead, she jumped down from the wall.
"By the way, great inventor, I have one more request."
Placing her hands behind her back, the girl smiled sweetly.
"Come help me save the world."
"...Alright."
"Tsk tsk, it's still hard to believe, but this is really happening."
Watching as Otto was completely captivated by a woman with just a few words, Chang Yuan was stunned.
Did Otto use up all his lifetime's worth of romanticism on Kallen?
"My name is Otto. Otto Apocalypse. What's yours?"
"Oh, I know you. I've heard a lot about you. You're the sickly, weak, and useless young master of the Apocalypse family."
"Uh..."
Hit where it hurt, Otto lowered his head.
But the next second, Kallen placed the broken plane on the ground.
Then, she stepped forward and took Otto's hands in hers.
"See? The rumors outside are all lies. You're so talented at inventing. And as for being weak, you just need to exercise more. From now on, you'll be with me. I'll protect you.
Oh, and my name is Kallen. Kallen Kaslana. I'm my father's only daughter, hehe."
"Kallen..."
Otto had expected more mockery, but instead, he received care and encouragement.
At that moment, Otto vowed in his heart that he would help Kallen achieve her dreams.
"Good grief, since when did the Kaslana family have such high emotional intelligence? I don't remember Kevin being like this. Wasn't he just good at being persistent?"
Chang Yuan was shocked by Kallen's smooth talking.
He didn't remember Kevin being this good at flirting.
"Hmm, maybe she inherited more of MEI's intelligence?"
"Yeah, that's probably it."
Hearing Elysia's words, Chang Yuan nodded in agreement.
Meanwhile, somewhere else, Kevin, who was on a honeymoon with MEI, sneezed.
"Achoo! What the—? Who's trying to curse me?"
"No one's cursing you, you dummy. Sigh, it's been so long since we last checked on the Kaslana family. I wonder if they inherited your dumb genes and disappeared into history.
Probably not. Chang Yuan did say that the future protagonist's surname would be Kaslana."
Listening to her idiot husband, MEI rubbed her temples.
She had already done everything she needed to do. Now, she just had to accompany her idiot husband on his adventures.
"Hehe, they also inherited your high intelligence. They'll be fine."
"Who knows if your dumb genes will drag them down."
Rolling her eyes at Kevin, MEI continued walking ahead.
This was the Previous Era's Mu Continent. Thanks to a certain Herrscher's incompetence, the continent hadn't been destroyed.
It was also the most developed continent in the current era.
"Should we really just watch and not do anything?"
"Hmm, you're right. Let's do something."
Taking Elysia's hand, Chang Yuan leaped down from their vantage point.
Landing on the grass, they startled Otto and Kallen.
"Who are you? This is the Apocalypse family's estate. If you don't want to be arrested, leave now."
Otto, summoning courage from who knows where, stepped in front of Kallen and shouted at Chang Yuan and Elysia.
He hoped to use his family's name to intimidate them and also to attract the attention of others.
That way, even if Chang Yuan and Elysia didn't leave, others would come to deal with them.
