Chapter 114: Chapter 114: "Seele can't refuse"
At night...
Because there is no entertainment at night, and the children are also tired of playing all day long. At 7 pm, the entire orphanage building became very quiet.
The children had already gone to bed in their own rooms.
The hallway lights had also been turned off, and made the whole house a bit pitch black under the reflection of the moonlight.
"What do you think... Seele?"
In Cocolia's office room, which still has a light on brightly. Seele who heard her name was called, held the form paper that was in her hand at the moment nervously.
"I-Is everything written here true matushka? sister Bronya will also be volunteering as an experimen test subject?"
She learns from the paper form in her hand that her big sister Bronya, as well as Sin Mal, have joined the Lab-10 project, and are at high risk of dying while carrying out the experiments. Seele, who knew the truth, swallowed her saliva frantically.
Cocolia could only shake her head: "Yes, but now no."
Cocolia began to explain.
"In the beginning Bronya and Sin were chosen because they have very high honkai energy resistance. But, plans have changed, and we only want you."
Seele pointed her finger at herself with an unconvinced look.
"Me?"
"Yes, you. Seele vollerei."
"...Why?"
Seeing Seele herself also became very doubtful. Cocolia clenched her fists, and she began to close her eyes to think.
"If you don't want to, then you also have the right to reject it. After all, your honkai energy resistance is not as good as Bronya or Sin. Matushka will talk to them to change volunteers."
Cocolia could only sigh heavily.
"N-No don't!!"
Surprised at hearing Seele suddenly scream so loud. Cocolia was silent for a while, before looking at See who was currently nervous with a doubtful look.
As a girl who has a soft character, and also very obedient. Seele, who was currently standing in front of Cocolia, decided to make the most important decision of her life.
She mustered up courage, and she clenched her fists tightly.
"If Seele refuse, then big sister Bronya will replace my position. Seele didn't want to see this happen. So matushka, Seele is willing to do it! Seele will volunteer!"
"Seele...."
Surprised to see the very brave side of Seele. Cocolia closed her eyes helplessly, and she smiled slightly.
"In that case, okay..."
"Bronya refuse!!!"
With the sound of the door opening with a bang. Bronya walked into Cocolia's office room, and she had an angry expression on her face.
"What is the meaning of all this matushka Cocolia. Didn't we promise to keep all these things a secret from Seele?"
As a volunteer, of course Bronya knew that before her, seven experiments had been carried out on orphanage children. As a result, everything failed.
The goal of X-10's experiments was to create a new human who could completely restrain Honkai's energy, and coexist with it.
This is a crazy plan like bullshit. But if it works, contributions to mankind will not be counted.
However...
The reason why Bronya was able to volunteer in this doomed death experiment was because she was a former mercenary who had been rescued by Cocolia, and she also wanted to protect Seele.
This gratitude, and this sense of wanting to protect is what made her willing to volunteer.
Even if she died later in the experiment, at least their success data would increase, and make Seele's survival percentage increase greatly if she was selected one day.
But now...
"Seele, take cover behind me!"
"Big sister Bronya..."
"Seele, come here."
"Matushka..."
Frozen to the spot, and having a hard time choosing which one to support. As an obedient girl, Seele confessed that she was currently very confused.
"Bronya, stop causing trouble. This time the situation is completely different." Cocolia held her forehead dizzy.
"No, Bronya didn't cause any trouble. Rather Bronya wanted to ask why Seele had to join this experimental project? Aren't two enough?"
Cocolia slammed her desk hard: "They don't want you Bronya! They only want Seele!!!"
"They?"
Tilted her head, and realized who the "they" Cocolia was referring to was. Bronya recalled the faces of the people getting out of the old car, and she narrowed her eyes sharply.
As a former mercenary with the famous title, the silver wolf from the Urals, her specialty was, of course, killing.
And as a wolf, she wouldn't let the cute bunny that was in her mouth be snatched away by anyone.
"Bronya stop it, you're too easy to read. You won't be able to kill them at all." Cocolia could only sigh tiredly.
"Why?"
"...Because they are no longer categorized as humans."
As the executor of Anti-Entropy, and Schicksal's spy. Of course Cocolia knew who was behind the Gray Serpent at that time.
Thea Schariac, Saintess of the Schariac house, and also the leader of Schicksal behind the scenes that not many people know about.
And also...
Aurora Schariac, an S-rank valkyrie, and also a former Immortal Blade who was renowned for their strength and skill.
As someone who already knows how terrifying a valkyrie's power is. Bronya, who was only human, couldn't possibly beat the two sisters even though she had plenty of rifles and ammunition in her hands.
In addition, according to existing data, both Thea and Aurora are S-rank valkyries, the pinnacle of strength of all valkyries. Fighting any of them was purely to seek death.
Moreover, there is Thea, a Saintess who has an identity closely related to Schicksal. If Bronya were to attack, then the subject matter would turn into an unknown, and would instead complicate the current situation.
Although Cocolia was starting to doubt whether Schicksal had already cooperated with World Serpant, or not. She better choose a safer path.
"Sorry Bronya, the plans have changed. Now I'm not the one making the decisions anymore."
"They wanted Seele, and I just obeyed what they told me to do. But even so, it's still not too late."
"If you could replace Seele as a volunteer, would you be willing to take her place?"
Hearing this, Bronya just looked at Cocolia with very serious eyes.
"Bronya ready!"
Cocolia nodded her head: "Good, now let's go to the car, and I will talk to them later about this."
"Thank you Matushka Cocolia..."
"Seele, let's go."
"O-Okay!"
Walked after the two of them, and clenched her fists until they turned pale. Seele, who could only obey the two of them, bit her lower lip tightly.
"Why I can't refuse...."
Seele lowered her head gloomily.
"(Have you just realized that you are a coward?)"
"(Those two didn't even ask about how you're feeling right now. It's so pathetic.)"
"(You are a really very obedient girl~ Seele~)"
