Seele's point of view: When I saw the sea for the first time and crossed its vast expanse, I wanted to tell Bronya... "We should see the azure waters together"... It was too late...

"Seele... where are you?" Bronya was crying behind a window while I was behind her, invisible also crying. "Come out. Stop playing hide and seek..." "Bronya! Bronya! Onee-Chan! Bronya Onee-Chan! I'm right here!" "Seele... Seele..." "Nyet! Nyet! Please... I'm so close... so close..."

My point of view: Seeing the crying and Seele disappear in the flashback made me feel emotional. So emotional... that tears were finally coming out of my eyes. I haven't cried tears for a really long time, not since my parents used to yell and scold at me for punishment while also spank me during my childhood.

"My body disappeared... My physical integrity collapsed into the quantum state. That was what Cocolia and the researchers said. No one could see me, and I couldn't touch anything or anyone..." Said Seele while tears were coming out of her eyes.

"Seele... You did your best. It wasn't your fault." I said. "I tried not to run away, but I couldn't handle the power... "I wouldn't mind if I were the only one to disappear..." I thought about how long I might stay in this lonely world... But..."

Seele's point of view: A person suddenly appeared in this vast emptiness... "Seele... Seele! I've finally found you!" It was Bronya. "Bronya... Why are you here. Bronya? Did they make you take the test? You have to leave, Bronya, or you'll end up vanishing from the real world as well." I said. "I don't care about the test or that world. You're the one who matters most to me, Seele. I refuse to leave you here all alone, Seele. I've already made up my mind when I took the test. I don't want to wake up again only to realize that you're gone!" Bronya held me tightly. I shouldn't feel anything, but I could sense her tears wetting my blouse... I didn't want to let go... but I have too... and I pushed her away...

"Bronya, you're always standing up for me whenever I get into trouble... I knew you would be coming back for me... But I can't allow you to do this... not like this... You can't be gone from the other world as well." "Why?" "You're my hope, Bronya." "I'm your... hope?" "You're the bravest and strongest person I've known. You'll find a way to rescue me. Staying here with me would mean that you've given up hope and chose to run away... You shouldn't be like this, Bronya..." "That's true... I've chosen to run away... I've let Seele down... You're right, Seele. Let's make a promise... I'll find a way to bring you out of here, Seele. No matter how slim the chances might be, I will never ever give up." "Bronya?"

"I... The Bronya... can't feel sad anymore..." "You have to leave Bronya... I've found the power of REBUILD in the chest... it will keep you safe... Leave now, Bronya."

My Point of View: It was the last entry in the diary. I closed it and put it to the side. "That was when she stopped using the words I, you, and me. And she only referred to herself as "The Bronya" like a robot and a cyborg." But then the Herrscher of Death spoke once again. ""It" will keep her safe? That's Project Bunny 19C, right?" "Yes that's her weapon of choice. It always kept her safe." I said. "Isn't it ironic? You took the test so that Bronya won't have to take it." The Herrscher of Death ignored me. "But you disappeared, forcing Bronya to take the test just to see you again. You're the reason why she lost her legs and emotive centers... She could no longer feel happy or sad. You just don't get it at all. Seele, you're the reason of her suffering."

"SHUT UP!" Then I fired a blast and wounded the Herrscher. I have had enough of the Herrscher of Death. "You keep your mouth shut Herrscher scum. Seele did the right thing. Both Seele and Bronya did what they could. They took the test to help the other out." The Herrscher of Death just got back up still smiling like a villain. "Think about it, my dear host. Would you want Bronya to hurt herself just to look for you?" "... I can't let anyone hurt Bronya anymore. I've written so many entries... and I've learned that this is my inner voice... I don't want Bronya to get hurt... I... I don't want to be found..."

"But Seele. You let me find you and now I'm here. You and Bronya made a promise that Bronya will find you. You're getting too scared." "Stay away from me Patrick. I'm too dangerous." "You're not, Seele." "Just let me hide in this toy chest forever as I've done before." I rushed in and hugged Seele which got her blushing. "Seele, you took the test because you wanted to help Bronya. There's no need to hide. You were brave when you made the choice. You can definitely be brave again. You can't let the Herrscher of Death kill anyone. ...I know how being a Herrscher feels. Kiana was the Herrscher of the Void, Mei was the Herrscher of lightning, Yae Sakura was the Herrscher of Erosion, and Welt is The Herrscher of Reason. And so am I... I'm the Herrscher of the Dragon. When I was devastated by Kiana getting controlled by Sirin and what Otto Apocalypse said... Drago's power inside of me awakened when I was in so much rage... I exploded with so much rage that his full power awakened... I overkilled Sirin... Then when Otto killed Fu Hua... I didn't care about Fu Hua getting killed because of what she did to me and to Kiana, then I left to find the Herrscher of the Void and find Kiana... I also vowed to kill that dictator... I saved Kiana from the Herrscher of the Void. I can do the same thing for you and save you... I've already defeated 5 Herrschers. I can save you and defeat The Herrscher of Death..."

Seele couldn't think of what to say from being hugged by me. "Seele... You're starting to feel like a little sister to me. I want to act like an older brother and save you... I want Bronya to find you and to save you... You need to have faith in me and Bronya. Write down your other memories, Seele. The good and bad memories define who you are. I will keep reading your diary... So please keep writing... Seele..."

Finally she smiled again. "I understand. I'll keep writing down my story." Then we separated. "I must confirm that I'm... "me."" "Seele... You don't have the red eyes anymore. I believe you." "Thank you. I'll write down this conversation with you. How should I write this? "Dear... sis... Bronya... someone finally read my diary. I'll treasure it and continue writing our story. Hopefully you'll get to read this one day." Chatting with you made me really happy, Patrick. I'll keep writing new entries. Every little detail must be recorded... ...if you let me." "Of course I'll let you Seele." "Thank you Patrick." "One more thing Seele. Can I have a copy? I have to tell Bronya that I met you and I'm gonna need some evidence." "Sure thing Patrick."

A portal opened up for me to go. "Patrick. It's time to go." Drago spoke to me. "Alright..." I turned to leave. "Goodbye... Seele Vollerei... I hope to see you again..." "Goodbye Patrick Ewing. One last thing." Seele got in front of me then unexpected. She kissed me a goodbye kiss. "Goodbye Patrick Onii-Chan." Then she waved goodbye to me as I walked to and through the portal.

I returned to the real world in an instant. A mess of codes quickly materialized into text and images. The screen now showed only tips and comments from salty players on Reddit... But now I'm no longer interested in them. "How did it turn out this way? Seele? Where are you, Seele?" I thought about Bronya. She must have felt super anxious when looking for her friend. Anxious and lost...

I went into my files app and found Seele's Diary. "I better tell Bronya about this in the morning." I said before going to sleep.
