Time in a collapsing world

"Sue Otto..."

Karen seemed to be thinking seriously, and then shook her head, "Forget it. Isn't Otto very busy recently? He wasn't at home several times when I went to look for him before, and the few times I saw him, his expression was not very good..."

"Is that so?"

A while ago, Yae Li didn't pay much attention to Otto's condition, and he was always running back and forth between Shenzhou and Tianming. Sometimes he had to bring wine for Eden, sometimes he was called by Mebius to do experiments, and Qianjie also called him over to be a sparring partner many times...

But most of them went back for Alicia. This guy carried forward the old tradition and tried every means to get everyone together whenever he had free time.

Yae Ri stays there fifteen days a month. He is considering whether he should spend some time to set up a space anchor point at the location of Taixu Mountain for convenience.

"But if you don't go find Otto, how are you going to deal with that guy just now?"

"Actually, my main purpose is not to teach that priest a lesson..."

Kallen was now thinking about what she could do for civilians like the mother and daughter just now. Of course, it would be even better if she could deal with that hateful priest at the same time.

"No hurry, think about it while walking, do you still want to go shopping?"

Yaeri watched Kallen thinking hard but didn't interrupt her. There were many ways to teach the priest a lesson. Even if she only used Kaslana's own power, it would be enough to give that guy a hard time.

"No more shopping, let's go back."

Kallen shook her head. After what happened, she was in no mood to hang around outside. "Ri, come to my house when you get back. Call Sakura and Rin... and Sister Theophile as well. Let's figure out how to deal with that nasty guy together!"

A war meeting? It's quite formal.

Yaeri smiled and nodded, wanting to see what Kallen and her two sisters could come up with when they got together.

As for Theophile...she is redundant, just like herself, and generally doesn't think too much about such things.

……

The two returned to the Yae family's residence. Yae went to call people, while Kallen went home to prepare refreshments for the meeting.

"Karen, your flowers... forget it."

Seeing Kallen rushing back to the next door, Yaeri had no choice but to hold the flowers in her hand, take out the key and open the door of her house.

"Who is it?"

Yae Rin, wearing a white nightgown, came down from upstairs, rubbing her sleepy eyes.

"Yayeri, your brother."

Seeing Yae Rin's sleepy look, Yae Rikki thought that this guy must have forgotten to sleep because he was reading in the middle of the night. "It's already noon, and the sun is shining on your butt. If you continue like this, I think your biological clock will be reversed sooner or later."

Yae Rin woke up a little when she heard her brother's voice, but she still squinted her eyes and pretended to be still asleep. She deliberately mumbled in a voice that Yae Rin could just hear: "I can't sleep. I asked my brother to tell me a story last night, but he refused. I'm so sad. Where did the brother who doted on me when I was a child go?"

"Is this still my fault?"

Listening to Yae Rin's mumbling, Yae Li felt helpless, "It's not that I don't want to tell you a story, it's just that your sister won't let me."

"I think my sister is just jealous. Humph, I know it. My sister must be unhappy because she sees that you spend more and more time with me, brother~"

"Then I will spend more time with Ying from the time I spend with you in the future?"

"That won't do! I have to defend my rights too. Brother, you should take some time off from Sister Kallen."

"Okay, okay, let's get together in Karin's room later, do you want to go? We're going to hold a combat meeting on how to deal with the big bad guy." Yaeri dropped the topic, thinking that Karin was almost ready.

"Deal with the big bad guy? Someone offended you, brother? Oh no, if it was you, brother, you would have taken revenge on the spot... So it was Sister Kallen who offended you?"

"..."

Yae Li spent a few seconds reflecting on when she had ever shown a violent look in front of her sister. "I guess so, so are you going or not?"

"Of course I'm going! How can I be absent from such an interesting event?"

Yae Rin went back upstairs to change clothes. Yae Ri was waiting downstairs. After a while, Yae Sakura, who was doing her daily practice in the backyard, walked in.

"Brother, you're back? Have you had lunch?" Yaezakura noticed the flowers in Yaeri's hand, "What are these flowers...?"

"Karen's. I was just shopping with her outside." Yaeri said casually.

"..."

For some reason, Yaezakura's originally gentle smile suddenly froze. Although there was no change, she felt an inexplicable chill.

"what happened?"

Yaeri looked at her strangely.

"No, it's nothing. Sister Karen has really good taste..."

"There's a share for you in there, too. It's not just for me."

"Eh? Is that so?"

As the warm wind blew by, Yaezakura's expression became lively again, and she became happy and walked closer. She fiddled with the flowers in Yaezakura's hand in front of her, and the furry fox ears on her head rubbed against her nose, bringing a slight itchy feeling.

Yaeri also told her about the meeting, and Yaesakura of course agreed to attend, but her clothes were stained with sweat, so she went upstairs to change clothes.

There's also Theophile... Never mind, just wait three seconds. I won't call her if this guy doesn't come out.

Just as she was thinking this, Yaeri felt something appear behind her. She turned around and found Theophile standing there expressionlessly.

“…Are you going?”

"go."

After waiting for a few minutes, Yae Sakura and Yae Rin changed their clothes at the same time, and then they walked towards Kaslana's house next door.

……

"You are here, come in quickly~"

Kallen opened the door of her room and warmly invited everyone in. In the space between the bed and the door, she placed a table filled with snacks and drinks.

To Yaeri's surprise, Otto was also there, leaning against the window, drinking tea, and his mature and charming face gave them a gentle smile.

Without waiting for Yae Li to ask, Kallen explained that Otto had a rare moment of free time and came to Kaslana's house to see her, so Kallen told Otto about her troubles, and he naturally stayed.

Yaeri looked at the tall Otto with a slightly raised brow. He felt a strong Houkai energy surrounding this guy, which was probably the result of too much contact with Houkai recently.

Instead of working on inventions, you're researching collapse?

This was also expected. After all, the Void is in his hands. Otto, whose horizons have been broadened, will sooner or later come into contact with such taboo projects.
