Chapter 16: Distributing the PV - part 2
(Sea Of Quanta - The Other Side of Light and Shadow)
[The Sea Of Quanta bound her sister, and the Serpent eyes secretly watched]
[The meteor in the sky bids farewell to the past, she will never let anyone down again]
[Will they succeed in saving everything?]
The scene transforms into a vast, deep blue ocean. Floating bubbles reveal glimpses of other worlds, reminding everyone that this is no ordinary underwater scene.
The scenes included high-rise buildings under the starry sky and green grasslands in the breeze, but most of them were images of a girl at different stages of her life.
A gentle-looking girl with shoulder-length blue hair, dressed in a school uniform, rests peacefully in the sea. She's curled up, eyes gently closed, holding onto a notebook as if it were a treasure. Papers and books float weightlessly around her. She doesn't seem out of place among the bubbles, but rather appears to be connected to the blue ocean itself.
.....
"Seele, Seele! Is that really Seele?" It was the first time that Bronya's emotions fluctuated so much. She gripped Luo Mo's sleeve tightly, her small hand unconsciously tightening its hold, almost ripping the fabric.
Luo Mo had to pause the video playing in front of them. He confirmed, "Yes, that is your sister Seele." After a moment of silence, he added, "Bronya, would you mind staying behind after everyone else leaves? I'd like to talk to you alone."Bronya blinked a few times, taking several deep breaths to calm herself before responding, "Uh, okay."
.....
The video resumed, showcasing a remarkable transformation. Bronya had evolved from a double turbo to a quadruple turbo, her hair now slightly curled. Two large spirals framed the center of her hairstyle, accompanied by two smaller spirals and a miniature crown perched on top.
She was adorned in a delicate blue and white gown, complemented by a black breastplate that shielded her chest. A sparkling blue jewel glistened at its center, while layers of fabric and ladylike black silk cuffs exuded elegance. Her blue and white skirt fluttered gently, and her legs were encased in opaque white silk, cinched at the thighs with black leg rings.
The technologically and aesthetically enhanced Bronya made her official debut.
The contrast between the adorable loli and the mecha behind her made the scene both endearing and dazzling.
.....
"Wow, even dwarf has such a cool side," Kiana exclaimed as she watched the video.
Bronya didn't want to respond to her. Seeing her long-lost sister again in this form was unexpected and overwhelming, and she needed a moment to process it.
This video also made her question everything she had believed. She no longer thought this game was just a made-up story. She had no idea Seele would grow up to look like this, and she had never told anyone about her sister. But the animation on the screen, it was unmistakably Seele.
Now, Bronya didn't know what to do. Should she continue working for Cocolia as a spy? It seemed like Schicksal already knew about Seele. And Cocolia's experiments hadn't worked so far. Maybe Schicksal could save Seele when Cocolia couldn't.For Bronya, Seele was everything. If it was for Seele... she would do anything.

(Nagazora City - Dedicated to Yesterday's Elegy)
[Surpassed the whispers of Honkai, but couldn't withstand the departure of a friend]
[Reunited in the old place, yet heading in opposite directions]
[How can one save someone from the clutches of collapse?]
[In the end, she found the answer from the serpent]
Similar to the oni warrior with the double horns at the beginning of the previous episode, Mei is facing her at the moment, and unlike the oni warrior, this Mei is the Mei that everyone knows.
In a space of deep darkness, only these two were visible, the two faced each other without seeming to be facing each other, and finally Mei's eyes became determined and she stepped over her, into deeper darkness.
.....
"Is this really just a game?" Mei whispered to herself, the scenes on the screen feeling like a glimpse into a possible future.
"Will I... eventually face her?" Mei looked at her palm, feeling that her body was unfamiliar, as if the will within her was saying,
[See, the game is also telling you that you can't run away from me, just as one can't run away from oneself.]
Kiana, noticing Mei's downcast expression after watching the scene, asked with concern, "Mei, are you alright?" Mei seemed to want to shrink away from the world.
".... I'm fine."

(Taixu Mountain - Feathers of Millennia, Wings of Rebirth)
[The mission of tens of thousands of years, the steadfastness of thousands of years, comes to an end today]
[The losers become the ashes of war, while the winners are rekindled]
[The Herrscher of Sentience has no opinion on this matter]
High above the earth, two figures resembling Fu Hua walk side-by-side. The azure sky stretches above them, and layers of clouds drift beneath their feet, giving the illusion that they are celestial beings strolling through the heavens.
One figure has a streak of red woven into her white hair, which fades to pale red at the tips. She wears a traditional Shenzhou-style qipao in red and white, its flowing hem resembling the feathers of a bird. This calls to mind the legendary Red Kite Immortal, her very presence exuding an otherworldly air.
The other looks exactly the same as the first, but with a streak of black in her white hair, and gray tips. She has a proud expression and wears a predominantly black outfit that exudes an ominous air. Her unconventional skirt billows in the wind, but the most striking feature is the horn on her head.
One radiates an ethereal, almost immortal aura, while the other exudes a heavy, demonic presence.
.....
Everyone present was surprised, not expecting that the usually unassuming and old-fashioned Squat leader could look so stunning when dressed up.
And no matter which one in the video, the appearance and temperament are not comparable to ordinary people.
"Wow, Squad leader! This is amazing!" Kiana exclaimed. "You should try dressing up like that when we get back. You might end up looking a little like the ones in the video."
Kiana circled Fu Hua, fascinated, constantly comparing her to the figures on screen. Mei wanted to pull her back, but she was too distracted by the glimpse of the next video's main character.
"...It might be worth a try," Fu Hua said, startled by Kiana's close inspection. In her five thousand years as an immortal, she had faced many challenges, but this was a first! Caught off guard, she had agreed to Kiana's suggestion.
Regaining her composure, she made a mental note to increase Kiana's training in the future – it seemed like the only way to repay her.
Kiana suddenly felt a chill down her spine.

(Puppet Theater - Stage of Domination)
[The puppet adores all the absurd spectacles of the world.]
[It even craves to strip away all Herrscher powers.]
[Her companions have all fallen one by one]
[But the girl knows that the flame passed down from yesterday must never be extinguished.]
In a very unsettling theater, many puppets gathered together. Most of these puppets looked the same, as if made from low-quality toys with whatever materials were available. They had two small horns on their heads, which did not appear cute because their arms and heads would occasionally rotate 360 degrees.
In the dimly lit theater, a puppet with a wooden hammer sat in the judge's seat, surrounded by a dense crowd of identical puppets. The scene was both comical and unsettling.
The scene shifted, revealing Kiana with her hair pulled back into a high ponytail. She looked brave and determined, a true hero. A cape, white on the outside and red on the inside, flowed behind her in the wind. Its tattered edges hinted at the many battles she had fought.
White armor protected her vital areas, and she held a broken greatsword. This did not diminish her strength; rather, it highlighted her warrior's spirit.
Her blue, determined eyes were full of hope for the future and a resolve to fight for it. She seemed enveloped in flames, not burning but warmly glowing. It was as if she was telling everyone that she had not let them down.
The girl was walking the path of a hero, even though she no longer yearned to be one, even though she had already sacrificed everything for it.
.....
"Is that really Kiana?" Theresa and Himeko asked, disbelief coloring their voices. Who would have thought that the Kiana they knew, the one who always skipped class, could look like that?
If it were Durandal, they might have believed it, but the character on the screen was definitely Kiana. Even though they were sisters, there was a clear difference in their appearance, especially their hair color.
"Hehe, that's me!" Kiana, sitting in the office, laughed. She didn't think much about what the game might mean, only feeling happy that her character looked so cool.
"See, she must be cheating," Sirin said, angrily throwing her mouse and accidentally knocking over her monitor. She ignored her concerned teammates and turned to her mother. "How can someone as silly and harmless as her turn out like that in the game?"
"Mm-hmm, don't say that. Maybe Kiana will really become a competent warrior someday," Cecilia said, patting Sirin's head reassuringly.
