Chapter 136

Bronya: "... No need to comfort Bronya anymore, Bronya is fine."

Cough cough, Bronya almost coughed up blood from anger; it was an internal injury.

She's almost fully systematized her knowledge of the Sea of Quanta, and now that she's halfway through, after all the hard work she's put in, it's impossible for her to give up halfway.

Next, she will have to study highly difficult knowledge. Just thinking about the days ahead makes Bronya feel that her life is bleak.

Only Seele can heal her emotional wounds.

[Seele uses Concept Card, possessing the power to contain Virtual World Bubble.]

Seele: "What should Seele do next?"

Kiana: "Won't we be able to come out after the fusion?"

Durandal: "Of course not. The World Bubble within her body only grants her the power to freely enter the Sea of Quanta. She still needs to familiarize herself with its specific controls. That's alright, I can teach you slowly."

Durandal: "Let me introduce myself. I'm Bianka Atagina, you can call me Durandal if you prefer. Like you, I possess World Bubble within my body."

Seele: "Th... Sister Bianka."

Seele was happy to have met a kind older sister. Just now, her other self had melted the World Bubble into her body without consulting her.

Seele felt bloated, as if she had swallowed several large white steamed buns and then forced herself to drink a bottle of water.

While listening intently to Bianka teach her how to control her power and leave the Sea of Quanta, Seele suddenly saw her own image flash across the screen.

The scene depicts a dark space where anti-gravity rocks float in the air, forming a walkway leading to the outside world, while below lies utter darkness.

Above the sky, a rainbow bridge descended, representing their hope of escaping the Sea of Quanta.

Bronya held Seele's little hand and ran across the rocks.

The screen in the sky is slowly closing, like a drowning person opening their eyes to look at the last glimmer of light on the sea.

With terrifying monsters still chasing them from behind, Bronya couldn't stop.

Not even for a moment.

Hope was within reach, but just before she could get close to the light, the monster behind her stretched out its tentacles, grabbed Seele's ankle, and dragged her back.

"Seele!"

Bronya quickly returned, her exoskeleton armor creaking as it scraped against the ground, and with a single slash, she severed the dark tentacles.

"Seele, run!"

Tentacles rushed in from all directions, forming a dense net. Bronya grabbed Seele's hand, and the two charged forward together.

We can't afford any more accidents.

Bronya pulled Seele into the rainbow-colored light. In that instant, the monster seized their bodies, then began to entangle and cover them.

It almost devoured their bodies.

Bronya glanced back at Seele, then mustered all her strength and flung her away.

"Sister, Sister Bronya..."

Seele's body entered the light, but a tentacle bound her and Bronya's arms together.

"Seele, I'm sorry."

In that instant, Bronya swiftly and decisively severed the tentacle, only to be swallowed up by the endless array of tentacles.

Seele fell into the light and was sucked away by the massive gravitational current.

"Sister Bronya!"

She called out Bronya's name loudly, but received no response.

Her body continued to spin in a constant state. Seele finally managed to grab a piece of stone wall, but the crack was getting narrower and narrower, and it was about to crush Seele at any moment.

Do you want to die?!

Another Seele pried her hands apart, and Seele began to fall again until she was completely out of the Sea of Quanta, crashing heavily to the floor.

"Sister Bronya, why..."

Seele lay on the ground, tears streaming down her face.

Bronya ventured into the perilous Sea of Quanta to save her, but in the end, she was just a burden, unable to help at all, and instead causing Bronya to remain in the Sea of Quanta forever.

"Sister Bronya..."

"It's over. There's nothing you can do about it!"

Another Seele stood behind her, recounting the cruel reality.

Seele raised her fist and pounded it on the floor again and again, blood seeping from her small, white hand and leaving patches of red on the ground.

"The door is locked! You can't save her!"

"Sister Bronya! No, no..."

"Enough!!"

Veliona reached out and grabbed Seele's arm, the scarlet chains binding her tightly.

"That's... enough."

"We clearly agreed to go see the sea together..."

Seele's tears fell to the ground, into the crack she had just created. In that instant, her heartbreaking tears blossomed into pure white flowers.

The Stigmata on her chest shone brightly, Seele mustered all her strength, instantly breaking free from her restraints.

"Move faster!"

With another punch, Seele slammed her fist heavily into the ground.

"You... coward!"

This time, her fists were no longer as weak as before; they smashed the ground violently, causing the space to collapse completely.

The Stigmata within her body acknowledged her power.

With a powerful force, Seele's clothes changed into an adorable skirt, which then fell gracefully downwards.

Almost simultaneously, several Quantum Shadow appeared before her, blocking Seele from entering the Sea of Quanta.

"Get out of my way!"

After dodging attacks from one monster after another, Seele was still trapped. Several monsters enveloped her body, rendering her unable to move an inch.

Seele, amidst the monsters, once again felt her own weakness.

But just as Bronya was willing to give everything for her, Seele also wanted to risk her life to save Bronya, just as she wanted to enter the Sea of Quanta.

"Please, my other self, come with me to save the sister who has always, always been protecting us...!"

Seele sobbed, calling out for help to her other self.

It's always been like this; it's always been another version of herself protecting her vulnerable self. In this most dangerous and crucial moment, only she can help Seele.

Above them, another Seele couldn't help but turn around.

The first time she heard that coward beg for her help, Veliona's lips curled into a devilishly gleeful smile. The next second, she appeared beside Seele and hugged her tightly.

"I just can't do anything with you..."

A crimson light flashed on Seele, and in an instant, it repelled all the monsters. Another Seele stood behind her, affectionately embracing the coward.

In Setsuna, the entire space turned grayish-white.

Chains filled the entire space, binding the monsters tightly. Seele held a huge scythe in her hand, her posture terrifying, with demonic eyes growing on the scythe.

"Go, Seele, let's go save our sister!"

With her crimson pupils opening, Seele merely swung her scythe lightly, shattering all the monsters in this space.

The tentacles that had been chasing Bronya and Seele were completely melted away by this strike.

In the boundless darkness, Bronya seemed to hear Seele's voice. She looked up and felt the light coming from above.

"Seele... is that you?"

"Sister Bronya, this time, we'll never be apart again."

Azure lights shimmered around Bronya slowly opened her eyes. Beside her was Seele, who was holding her hand.

The video ends here.

Kiana: "Gulp... Bronya, I remember you really did say before that your sister Seele was a well-behaved, cute, and obedient girl, right?"

The bond between Bronya and Seele stirred the hearts of many, but even more so, it was the immense power Seele displayed.

Space can shatter at will, and the Quantum Shadow can wipe out enemies in an instant, much like an area-of-effect attack clearing out minions.

Bronya, how dare you say Seele is well-behaved?

Didn't you see that giant scythe in the 40-meter field?

Bronya: "Bronya thinks Seele very well-behaved, not as exaggerated as you all say."

She risked her life and rushed into the Sea of Quanta to save herself. With such a well-behaved little sister, even Bronya is moved to tears.

Pardofelis: "Amazing, far more powerful than me. Even a hundred of me couldn't defeat you. Is this the power of Stigmata Adept?"

Seele: "Coward, it's rare for you to stand up for yourself, huh~, if you had been like this earlier, who would have dared to bully you?"

Seele: "No, I, I'm not that good."

Being praised by these people one by one Seele feel very embarrassed, and she wanted to find a place to hide and bury her head in the sand like an ostrich.

Bronya: "Seele is amazing."

Kiana: "Yeah, Seele is much better Bronya. I remember when Bronya went to rescue Seele, she only knew how to ride a motorcycle even with the Herrscher Authority of Reason, and her license kept getting revoked."

Seele: "Driver's license? Was Sister Bronya's license revoked?"

Bronya: "... Ahem, it's nothing important, Seele doesn't need to worry about it."

Bronya glared at Kiana fiercely. This girl always had to bring up the most sensitive topics, slandering her noble image in Seele's eyes.

[Q&A begins.]

[In Mobius's laboratory, Mobius did not want to attend the Fire Moth meeting. How did she manage to skip it?]

[A: Who goes to meetings if they're a decent person? I'm skipping it, I'm skipping it.]

[B: Blow up the meeting room, then no one can force her to attend the meeting.]

[C: Let Klein impersonate him; from this moment on, Klein is Mobius.]

[D: Cause some trouble for the Fire Moth, so they won't have time for meetings.]

Cang Xuan: "Dr. Mobius... Danzhu, what do you think?"

Danzhu: "How can you judge? The Doctor is capable of doing all these things!"

When it comes to working overtime, I guess only Senior Sister Klein is willing to do it without complaint. If you include Dr. Mobius, there are at least three people in a lab who slack off.

Theresa: "Hmm... I think we can rule out C for now. Klein and Mobius are two different people, isn't that obvious to everyone?"

The headmaster revealed a wise look in his eyes.

It's like putting her next to Kiana; anyone in the meeting room who isn't blind would recognize them.

Danzhu: "Principal Theresa, your analysis makes a lot of sense, but I remember the Doctor seems to have done something like that before."

Cang Xuan: "Dr. Mobius also skipped it. He's never been a big fan of meetings."

The four options were all things that Mobius was capable of doing, as Danzhu and Cang Xuan remembered them, leaving them unsure of what to do.

Theresa: "Then let's try the one with the highest probability. It's just skipping a meeting or something, it shouldn't blow up the building, right?"

Danzhu: "Perhaps... it shouldn't be that bad."

When Danzhu said this, he didn't have much confidence.

Elysia: "If those higher-ups are too annoying, holding meetings every few days, and they really piss Mobius off, she might still do something impulsive."

Bronya: "So, does that mean this problem has no solution?"
