"Come on, let's go to the infirmary and get checked out first!"

Mei gently hugged Bronya. As a companion who had escaped from Changkong City together, she had long regarded Bronya as one of her most precious family members.

Now, she was both delighted and frightened by Bronya's restored emotions, so... it would be best to get her checked out first.

Bronya nodded gently, agreeing with Mei's opinion. She glanced sideways at Ying, who was also delighted for her, and a hint of gratitude flashed in her eyes.

"Thank you... Ying..."

Clearly, she knew that her current changes were caused by Ying, after all... the way she gave the Ies doll was just too abrupt.

but……

"Idiot Kiana... thank you too."

Clearly, the power that could instantly restore her emotions did not belong to this world.

Bronya, who knew about the "chat group," quickly realized that Kiana must have been involved in this gift.

Even in another world, are you still worried about us? You idiot...

St. Freya Academy

Inside the only male dormitory.

"Miss Himeko, these are the final exam questions."

In front of the dormitory, Yang handed the newly completed exam paper to "Himeko" in front of him.

"Yes, thank you for your help, Teacher Yang."

After taking the exam paper, "Ji Zi" nodded to Yang in front of her, said nothing more, and turned and left briskly with the exam paper in her hand.

"..."

After watching Himeko leave, Yang slowly closed the door, then walked into the living room and sat down on the soft sofa.

The living room lights were off, making the room dim, but at that moment... Yang's eyes reflected a fleeting figure, and that figure...

It is "himself".

Chapter Fifty-Six: Walter's Memories

"What kind of trick is this? Recreating the scene from back then in the Sea of ​​Quanta? You're using outdated tricks to recreate my future self... Perhaps this is meaningless?"

Looking at the projection in front of him, which was clearly his future, weathered appearance, Yang calmly pushed up his glasses, but in the shadows, an invisible force had already begun to gather.

"I know what I'm about to say may seem unbelievable to you, but there is no doubt that the person standing before you right now is indeed from the future. To be more precise, this projection is a memory I left behind using a portion of my Herrscher powers. I believe you can also sense that this power comes from within yourself."

The "Walter Projection" sitting opposite also pushed up its glasses, looking at its still-young self in front of it, its eyes completely unmoved.

After all, what's here right now is truly just a memory.

"Um……"

Yang frowned. He did indeed sense a power almost identical to his own, but that power was clearly more mature and... carried some inexplicable external force.

He could feel that this external force carried his memories across the boundaries of the sea of ​​trees and found him.

"If you suspect it's Kevin, you can rest assured that at this point in time, no one has any intention of focusing on you."

Seeing the thoughtfulness and wariness in his past gaze, Walter's memory said in a deep voice.

"Heh... It's only close in power, but it's still not enough..."

Yang did not lower his guard, after all...

Who knows if what's in front of us isn't a trick played by some snake lurking in the shadows?

Don't forget, he's in this situation now...

However, for the other party to find him in the Sea of ​​Quanta, he would either need to reopen the Eye of the Abyss or open other channels that connect to the Sea of ​​Quanta...

"Hmm...you want clearer evidence? Okay then..."

Walter's projection sensed the caution of the person before him. He knew what the other was wary of. If he were in Walter's shoes, and a younger version of himself suddenly appeared before him at this moment, he would have done the same.

but……

Compared to his past self, he was still too naive!

Seeing the wary look in those eyes and the power gradually becoming clearer, Walter's memory sighed softly, then slowly said:

"Your opinion on Tesla..."

"Cough cough cough! Cough cough!! Hmm! Okay, I approve of you, stop talking!"

Upon hearing those three words, the young Yang on the other side visibly panicked. He then decisively withdrew the black hole he had been secretly accumulating, his lips twitching as he stared at his future self on the other side.

Is it necessary? Proving this right off the bat...

It's clear that the old man in front of me is indeed his future self...

"So, what happened in the future that made it worthwhile for you to send your memories back? Or even... send your memories into the Sea of ​​Quanta?"

Yang immediately changed the subject, adopting a serious expression, and asked his future self.

"Although I shouldn't do this, I'll tell you what will happen in the future first."

Walter pushed up his glasses again and then slowly said.

"In my future, humanity will defeat the Honkai, and Kiana will become the Herrscher of the End, transforming into a god who protects humanity."

"..."

Upon hearing this, Yang's eyes widened instantly, and the corners of his mouth involuntarily bulged, revealing an expression of disbelief!

"We...we finally survived the Honkai?"

His voice trembled slightly.

"Yes, we have defeated the Honkai."

Walter nodded in agreement.

In contrast to Yang's excitement, Walter appeared unusually calm, so calm that... Yang, who hadn't been happy for long, quickly realized something was wrong.

"Wait, you mean, in your future, Kiana becomes the Herrscher of the End...?"

Instantly, Yang frowned, then stared intently at the future version of himself before him.

"That's right, in my future, Kiana did become the Herrscher of the End, but... in this world, Kiana has already left."

Walter's memories were heavy as he looked at Yang Dao before him.

"What do you mean?"

Yang stared at the "memories" before him, puzzled. Suddenly, an ominous premonition, like a leech, surged up his spine, sending chills down his spine.

"It's very simple. Kiana is no longer in this world. The predetermined end has changed once again. The future has been altered."

Walter's memories slowly began to speak.

"..."

Yang fell silent. The silence lasted for about a minute, but to him it felt like an eternity.

"So...this is why you came back?"

After a long while, Yang Cai finally finished processing this information in his mind and slowly spoke.

"Yes."

Walter nodded in his memory.

"Next, the fate of this world will rest on the shoulders of that little girl named Ying, and also on your shoulders."

His gaze was deep and far-reaching, as if it pierced through the past and the future, traversed the layers of space, crossed the gaps between the trees, and finally... looked directly at Yang's soul.

"I will pass on some of my memories to you. From now on... the responsibility of saving the world rests on your shoulders..."

After saying that, Walter's memory projection gradually became illusory, and his figure turned into streams of light that flowed into Yang's body, and Yang did not resist these lights.

After the light entered his body, images began to flash through his mind...

From the legacy of "that man," to the later formation of Anti-Entropy, from the Second Collapse, to his subsequent disappearance...

What happened next was something he had never experienced, yet "had already experienced."

A flood of memories related to a series of major events rushed into his mind, causing him a splitting headache and nearly making him faint!

But... he still forced himself to accept all the memories from his future self, because... it concerned the life and death of the future [world]! And he... had promised... in the name of the [world]!

"puff……"

Black blood gushed from his mouth, and he collapsed to the ground in a rather disheveled state; his body... seemed to have exceeded its limits.

But... a smile gradually appeared on that handsome face. Yes...

Leave the rest to me...

After all, they are my students too!

then……

Looking at the space around him that was gradually becoming illusory, a look of helplessness appeared on Yang's face again.

You... you definitely didn't just send him a simple message!

Sure enough... I've really become a bit cunning as I get older.

Well, that's alright, that emotionless guy... what will you do next?

Chapter Fifty-Seven: Teacher

Star Dome Train

"Still putting on a brave face as always... Walter."

Himeko helped the nearly exhausted Walter to the sofa, and looking at his tired appearance, she smiled helplessly.

"He says he believes in Kiana, but..."

"Hehe, but in the end, I still can't put my mind at ease..."

Walter, sitting on the sofa, picked up where Himeko left off, and said somewhat wearily.

"After all, they are my students, and as a teacher, how many of us can truly trust our students?"
