Chapter 148: "Go to next world"
Seele? Seele!? Where are you!?
When they comes out of the bubble universe, and lands in a familiar place. Bronya, who had been holding Seele's hand, suddenly felt her grip become empty.
She looked around in panic.
Except for Kiana who was holding her head dizzy from the sudden transition. Seele's figure was not around at all.
Instead, she found a book.
"This... What book?"
"Bronya, Kiana, welcome back from the first world. You girls succeeded in one try, it amazes me."
Joachim reappeared before them, and he greeted them both kindly.
"Ugh... Why do you sound quite disappointed? Do you feel disappoint that we didn't stay there long enough?" Kiana looked at Joachim suspiciously.
After all, it was this little brat who kicked her into the bubble universe without any explanation at all.
When she asked where Bronya was, she was immediately kicked and fell into the infinite hole.
Is that polite!?
Kids these days don't know manners at all!
"Uhum, how could I do something like that. You might just misunderstand." Joachim looked aside with a straight face.
Kiana: "...(≖_≖)"
Joachim: "...(¬_¬)"
....
Ignoring the two of them, and checking this book that suddenly appeared in her hand. Bronya observed that the cover of this book looked very familiar.
It felt like Seele's diary.
Navy blue, with a pretty butterfly clip border.
"Joachim, you know about this book?"
"...You mean about Seele?"
"Yeah, Seele suddenly disappeared, and Bronya wants to know why."
On Bronya's question. Joachim closed his eyes for a moment, and he shook his head helplessly.
"I can't find that girl. I can't feel her presence here at all."
"Maybe her body is still floating in the sea of quanta, and accidentally a small part of her was projected here."
Seeing Bronya frowning, Joachim hastily spoke everything he knew.
"You can calm down, according to my observation she has a strange power in her body that allows her to survive in the sea of quanta.... Although, it seems that she has not been able to control this power..."
"B-But you will most likely meet her again in the next world. If you really want to save her, then you must enter the sea of quanta."
"This book also has the function of acting as a link between you and her. You can use it as a compass."
"...Bronya understands."
Take out Genius, and copied the coordinates emitted by Seele's book, to prevent any accidents. Bronya looks at genius one more time, and she finds a clue.
"Judging from the spectrum indications, it looks like Bronya really has to go to the sea of quanta. Kiana, it seems Bronya can't go with you yet."
Kiana gritted her teeth: "Gosh, why do I feel like I'm being used? Never mind. You want to save Seele right? To the sea of quanta? Then I'll come with you!"
Bronya tilted her head in confusion: "Why does Kiana want to help Bronya?"
Hearing her reinforcements being doubted, Kiana shot Bronya a disgruntled look.
"Do you even need a reason? I want to help you, so I'll help you! Besides, the two of us are still teammates. I won't leave you alone."
"Perhaps Seele is still waiting for us in the sea of quanta. With the strength of both of us, wouldn't we save her sooner?"
"Hm! For once, let me help you little devil!"
Bronya: "...."
Can feel her chest feels very warm, and feel a little embarrassed. Bronya started looking at Kiana in a different light.
She thought that all of Thea's sisters were as evil and cunning as she was.
Turns out, she was wrong.
This girl in front of her, was a very kind-hearted girl.
"Kiana, Bronya is sorry. Bronya is sorry for mistreating you before."
"....Persecute? About what?" Kiana was confused.
"About Bronya making you a maid."
"Ah..., about that..."
Recalling what Bronya had done to her. Even though Kiana felt a little angry after recalling it, she couldn't help but let out a long sigh.
"Never mind, I didn't take it to heart. After all, you didn't make me do anything bad. Compared to the two of them, you're quite polite."
"You mean?"
Kiana snorted: "Why do you think there is a maid's outfit in my wardrobe? Every time we lose a fight session, or lose a bet, then whoever it is becomes the servant of the winner for one day."
"Cleaning toilets, mopping floors, washing dirty dishes, massaging shoulders, washing clothes, peeling onions... I've done everything! Compared to the orders of the two of them, you're not that bad!"
Bronya: "Kiana..."
Couldn't say anything, and in the end could only hug Kiana gently to express her sympathy. Bronya now understood why Kiana never took revenge on her.
Compared to her orders that only brought drinks, and handed over all her game to her. These two older sisters were pure devils!
They are even merciless to their own sisters!
What a vicious devil!
"Kiana, this time let's be friends. Bronya, will never hurt you again."
"Oh... Alright...?"
Managed to get rid of hatred, and make friends even with a slightly strange atmosphere. They all returned to the main topic.
Bronya looked at Joachim seriously.
"You said that Bronya will meet Seele in the next world. But before that Bronya wants to know something, who is he you mean? Did he kill Welt Yang?"
"About that..."
Hearing Bronya's question. Joachim struggled a little.
"After all I am only a fragment of him. My memory is not complete at all."
"However I can remember the shadow of a very large snake there, as well as a very hot burst of flames."
"Other than that... I don't remember anything else."
Seeing Joachim holding his head dizzy. Bronya nodded her head in understanding.
"Okay Bronya got it. Then could you guide the two of us to the next world?"
"....Sure...Follow me."
Guide Bronya and Kiana to the next place. They passed through several areas, and Bronya suddenly felt that there was a transparent connecting rope leading her in a certain direction.
"It's so warm here..." Bronya could feel something was different.
Joachim nodded his head: "Of course. After passing through the first world, the second world opened up and resonated with you two."
"Further ahead is your second test. I hope that you two can pass through this world just like the previous one."
"...Good luck."
