Bizarre Honkai, a Wife-Chasing Crematorium

"Good, your existence is much more pleasing to the eye now. Tell me how to change everything. If I think there's some huge flaw or hidden danger in your solution, then you can go back in there and experience the shame of humanity again," Li Mo said, a hint of urgency in his heart, although he didn't show it.

[…]

"You won't do anything unless I'm forceful, huh? You don't have the right to threaten me."

Li Mo didn't hesitate and once again pressed the notebook under the "white blood," letting the filth and grime wash over it.

Only after Li Mo had been drained by Kiana again did he take it out, somewhat reluctantly.

He wanted to leave this ghostly place as soon as possible. If this kept up…

He really would be drained dry, turning into a dried corpse submerged in disgusting liquid, his infamy lasting for thousands of years.

But then again, no one would be able to find this place anyway. With the bizarre entities spreading throughout the world, there wouldn't be many survivors left.

"You better hurry up and tell me, before I change my mind."

The notebook didn't respond.

Li Mo was a little confused. Had he guessed wrong? Did the notebook actually not care about the shame of being submerged in disgusting liquid?

Li Mo wiped the filth from the notebook again and tentatively moved it toward Bizarre Kiana.

The next second, the notebook immediately provided its first solution.

[My name is Li Mo. When you read this, I have already been reborn.]

[The bizarre entities in the infirmary have broken free from millions of years of spacetime. They originally couldn't leave, but they encountered carriers and so are no longer restricted by spacetime, and are spreading to the whole world.]

[I don't have time to worry about what's going on outside, because I know that I will change everything…]

[Kiana, who has been contaminated by the bizarre, is the source of all the bizarre entities in this world.]

[She comes from a distant Future spacetime. Through endless resets, slowly… her Herrscher of the Finality divinity was completely contaminated by the bizarre. The blood in her body dried up, her bright eyes turned cloudy, her shadow was left behind, her skin became stiff, and her wings were broken…]

[Her cognition gradually warped, and her good luck also left her…]

[As a bizarre entity who can freely travel through spacetime, Kiana can't be contained, nor can she be sealed. It's almost impossible to seize her power.]

[However, I can do it now.]

[The black coffin suppresses the bizarre entity's instincts, so Kiana's body and consciousness are no longer purely bizarre. She can feel fatigue and even faint.]

[I have the ability to project, and am able to project myself, disguised as a malfunctioning bizarre entity, and seize all of its abilities. But once the bizarre entity that has been projected revives, I will be replaced…]

[I'm going to project myself as Kiana Kaslana, who has been contaminated by the bizarre.]

"Projection… Mei said that I should be very careful when using projection… Once the projected bizarre entity loses control and revives, I will die instantly, because the bizarre entity will directly become me. So theoretically, I won't even have the chance to reset."

"Projecting Kiana is basically tying my life to Kiana, isn't it? If she revives as a bizarre entity, I'll be the first to die."

"I'm not satisfied with this solution. Give me another one."

Projection was the equivalent of converting one concept into another. For example, if Li Mo projected himself as the Upside-Down Ghost, then he could choose whether or not to turn into the form of the Upside-Down Ghost. No matter what he chose, he would gain the Upside-Down Ghost's abilities, and he wouldn't be contaminated by the bizarre even if he kept using the Upside-Down Ghost's abilities.

But if the Upside-Down Ghost revived, then Li Mo would immediately die and be replaced.

Li Mo couldn't help but feel wary. This ability seemed incredibly powerful, but it was a double-edged sword. And this double-edged sword was more likely to kill him.

Bizarre entities wouldn't die, and in the endless flow of time, they would always go through unpredictable changes…

This gamble was unfair from the start. The best outcome that a human, after racking their brains, could obtain would only be a draw.

Because they wouldn't lose, the final winner would always be the bizarre entities.

[…]

"Forget it, you probably won't give me another solution anyway. I might as well just give you to Kiana."

"Kiana, can you please get off of me?" After he finished speaking, Li Mo thought that something was missing, so he added, "Thanks, I lo…"

Before the word "ve" could leave his mouth, the notebook hurriedly provided the second solution.

[My name is Li Mo. I have now received the second solution from the notebook, and although this solution is a bit difficult, it has some feasibility.]

[A small sacrifice to save this broken world.]

[Of course, I don't want to be a savior. The reason I'm doing this…perhaps one day I will realize.]

[Kiana's current state is very strange. Both the bizarre entity and her original consciousness exist inside of her. It's like different states of the same person.]

[What I have to do is to make both of these consciousnesses fall dormant at the same time and seize her power. Even if it's only temporary. When the moonlight dissipates, I will return to my normal state. It'll all be worth it. I know very well that Kiana Kaslana, contaminated by the bizarre, has enough power to reverse the time of the entire world.]

[And the price that I need to pay is only tons of goji berries and astragalus.]

[Two months. I can hold out for two months in my current condition. During these two months, using the black coffin's suppression, I need to constantly make Kiana feel pleasure without being eaten by her, to avoid the bizarre contamination from deepening.]

[I will do my very best. Two months later, Kiana will be the first to collapse.]

[But this method isn't completely safe…I have a premonition that the next time Kiana is next to me, she will be even more "insane." When that day arrives…unless I can find something to restrain her with, I will die.]

[My name is Li Mo. When you read this, I will be safe.]

"…"

This solution was much more reliable than projection, but…

Li Mo suddenly felt a faint pain in his kidneys. No, it wasn't a faint pain. It was an unbearable pain.

How long had it been? He didn't know, but it should have been at least ten days or half a month, right?

Even his bizarre body could barely handle this.

Li Mo slowly raised his head and glanced at Kiana, who was looking at him like a hungry wolf, and his scalp instantly went numb.

Two months…

There were still two more months…

"Although you provided a clear solution, and the cost is small, I'm still going to put you inside that disgusting liquid."

"Nothing personal, I just don't like you. You can stay there for however long I suffered."

With that, Li Mo didn't hesitate and pressed the notebook against the bottom of the black coffin. He then sat down on it, his butt pressing down firmly.

It would be impossible for it to float up.

So, what came next…

Li Mo looked at Kiana. She was drenched in sweat and her hair was messy, but she was still as pure and beautiful as always.
