To create Honkai Impact 3rd in a world where Kallen exists.

"Wait for me, Mei, wait!" Kiana saw Mei run away and, without thinking, chased after her, ignoring her conversation with Bronya.

Chapter 21 You don't want your Seele to be unable to be rescued, do you?

Watching the two figures run away, Bronya did not follow. Fu Hua glanced at the two who had left, and then looked at Bronya who remained behind.

She politely said goodbye to Luo Mo and Bronya, giving them space, and then took her leave.

"Can we talk now? About Seele." Bronya hovered in the air, her face filled with reminiscence, and gently stroked the heavy bunny behind her as she asked.

Luo Mo stopped delaying; he had originally intended to rescue Xi'er.

"Seele gradually became transparent and disappeared because she conducted an experiment, right?"

"Yes!" Bronya nodded emphatically.

Not many people know about this experiment, and the experimental data is all in reverse entropy mode, so those people won't easily reveal it.

A flame of hope ignited in her eyes, and her grey pupils were exceptionally earnest.

"Seele broke through the critical point in that experiment, and her existence jumped to the quantum state, which means she can no longer exist in real life. At this moment, she is in the space of the quantum sea. To rescue her, the first thing to do is to change her quantum state so that she can appear in real space. Otherwise, even if we bring her back, she will automatically sink into the quantum sea."

“Quantum state…” Bronya murmured to herself. Her understanding of quantum mechanics was limited to what she read in books, and in her mind, quantum mechanics was still a subject that needed to be explored.

No, for Seele! Bronya decided to buy books on quantum theory online and start studying them tomorrow—no, today.

She believed that her love and bond with Seele would surely overcome this cold and unapproachable subject!

"So, boss, do you have any way to rescue Seele?"

Although I didn't have high expectations, learning so much information was already a pleasant surprise.

"Yep!"

"W-What method?!"

"..." Luo Mo hesitated. He had indeed thought of a solution, but the technology tree in this world was still lacking; relying solely on technology wouldn't work. Based on his experience from his previous life in Honkai Impact 3rd...

"Whatever the conditions, Bronya will agree!" Bronya saw that Luo Mo hadn't spoken for a long time and thought he wanted to negotiate, so she immediately spoke up.

“The Herrscher Gem,” Lomo said, “is best suited to the Serenity Gem.”

Bronya was somewhat skeptical after hearing this, because Cocolia had told her the same thing, saying she wanted Mei's Conquest Gem, but the ending... well, you can imagine. Once you've been fooled, you'll learn your lesson.

Bronya looked at him, waiting for an explanation.

“The Herrscher Gem can stabilize Seele’s existence; it can be seen as an anchor point, connecting Seele’s existence with reality,” Lomo paused. “From this perspective, Cocolia’s idea is correct, but she has clearly overlooked one problem—the Herrscher Gem can also pose a threat to Seele. Moreover, the Herrscher Gem is only the first step, a prerequisite.”

“Cocolia, Mom…” Bronya’s eyes were filled with complicated emotions. “Then why did you still propose this method? Can it guarantee Seele’s safety?”

She didn't have time to worry about him knowing about Cocolia's mother; right now, all she wanted to do was care about her Seele.

Reverse entropy?

Home is where Seele is!

Only where Seele exists can it be called home!

"...You should know why Seele was able to conduct that experiment without suffering any serious injury, right?"

"Why?...Because of...Stigmata?" Bronya had never thought about the reason carefully. In the orphanage, although she had always played the role of the older sister, she always knew that, in a sense, in terms of Honkai resistance, she was the one with the weakest Honkai energy resistance.

She wasn't born with any holy marks, and her resistance was barely passable. So, if she had participated in that experiment, she would have certainly died, but Seele survived.

Despite being in a different place.

At this point, she could only attribute it to this reason—the Stigmata.

"Yes, Stigmata. Seele is a natural Stigmata Awakener, and not just any ordinary Stigmata. You can think of her as a natural Serenity Gem Adaptor; she has the best compatibility with this gem."

That's right. She was able to use the Black Abyss White Flower on her first encounter. If it weren't for the fact that the Tranquil Gems in Honkai Impact 3rd have nowhere to go, I would have always felt that Seele should have a brand new Herrscher of Death armor set.

Twin personalities, one black and one white, a black abyss and a white flower, withering and creating.

One person wields a certain authority; is there anyone more suitable to be the Herrscher of Death than her?

Furthermore, Luo Mo suspected that even if Seele accepted the gem, her Herrscher personality would not emerge.

Only one person can sit in a seat, and Black Seele has already taken that seat.

If Anti-Entropy had thrown in the Tranquility Gem instead of the Desire Gem instead, rescuing Seele would have been much less frustrating.

“But… a Herrscher… Bronya doesn’t want Seele to become a Herrscher,” Bronya hesitated.

Herrschers and humans are like two different races. Even Mei didn't tell her classmates that she was a Herrscher, because that would inevitably cause unnecessary turmoil and foreseeable suspicion and isolation.

However... if this is the only way to save Seele...

Bronya will definitely protect Seele; that's their promise.

“Seele will be safe,” Lomo reassured her, unaware that Bronya had already made up her mind. “Of course, if we have a quantum jump device, Seele’s return will be much smoother.”

"Yes, Bronya has made up her mind. I will bring the Tranquility Gem and grant your request." Bronya, unusually forgetting her verbal tic, said seriously.

"Well, I can figure out a way to get the gems, but you'll have to go yourself to rescue Seele."

"But Bronya doesn't know how to get there..."

"I'll tell you. I can't go to that place. Besides, wouldn't it be better for my own sister to go and rescue her herself?"

“Yes!” Bronya nodded emphatically. “So, what’s the method?”

"Let me tell you my requirements first," Luo Mo said, changing the subject.

"Sigh, I never thought the boss was this kind of person, so impatient?" Bronya sighed, glaring at him with the look of someone looking at scum.

She got up and slowly floated over to make sure the windows and doors were locked, then with a "whoosh," she pulled the thick curtains shut to ensure that no one could see inside.

Then he came to Luo Mo, who was sitting down, and looked down at Luo Mo with a hint of resentment, a hint of shame, a hint of fear, and a hint of disgust.

Bronya placed her hands near the buttons, her expression suddenly stiffening, but she quickly regained her composure and prepared to unbutton them one by one. "Well then, let's go."

From Luo Mo's raised perspective, he could just see Bronya's white-stockinged feet hovering in front of him, a smooth arc running along them. Her fair legs were slightly slender, yet extremely alluring. The hem of her skirt just barely concealed her most intimate parts, and there was that disdainful expression on her face as she looked down at him like he was scum.

Luo Mo swallowed hard, then gently pricked his palm with his fingernail to suppress his earlier impulse.

Hold on, hold on! Three years is the minimum, five years will be a fortune, even a death sentence won't be a loss! Wait, why did we go off-topic?

After doing this to Bronya, how am I supposed to face Seele? Am I going to do something similar to her? Seele, don't you want your Bronya sister to suffer too...?

No, why do I feel like I'll be settled after the end? Thinking about that woman, that pink-haired woman.

Ah, wait, no, it's like I suddenly understood the great love of humanity, the universal love of sages, loving everyone in the world instead of just caring about my own little plot of land. That's right, how can we give up an entire area for the sake of one tree...?

Forget it, let's think about the history of human evolution, from paramecia to marine life, from amphibians to upright apes, the enormous whales that rise and fall in the sea, the stars that shine in space. Lomo suddenly came to his senses and stopped Bronya's actions.

"Wait, not now," Luo Mo said, immediately sensing something was wrong. Why was he still caught in the whirlpool of desire?

"No, that's not what I meant."

"So what do you want to say?" Bronya stopped what she was doing. There was a small knife in her shirt, but when she got close to it, she felt a dangerous aura, a deadly threat. Her whole body felt like it was in an ice cave, and she dared not make a move.

"I mean, that's not what I'm asking for."

After saying that, Luo Mo breathed a sigh of relief, feeling a slight pang of regret, but it vanished in an instant.

Upon hearing this, Bronya didn't make any move, but the expression on her face softened a bit, probably shifting from 94 points of disdain to... 90 points?

She said with some doubt:

"...Is this even more outrageous?"

"Of course not! Uh... from your perspective, maybe it's even more outrageous?"

Upon hearing this, Bronya crossed her arms defensively over her chest.

"What I mean is, my condition is that you are not allowed to rescue Seele within two months. In return, I will tell you the specific steps and methods to rescue Seele. How about that?"

Luo Mo finally stated his request.

"Two months? I agree." Bronya nodded calmly, but her heart was in turmoil.

Can Seele be rescued in two months? She looked at her own plan and decisively tore it up in her mind. Compared to rescuing her in a year-long process, it was obviously better to follow Luo Mo's plan.

Having gotten closer, she had already confirmed that Luo Mo was a genuinely ordinary person, someone she could easily subdue in an instant. She didn't want to rely on seduction; as a Siberian and a once-renowned Ural Silver Wolf, she valued force more than physical prowess, and at the very least, she trusted her interrogation skills.

But just as she got close to carry out the action, her intuition told her—if she used violence, she would die!

This intuition had saved her many times when the Ural Silver Wolves once roamed the battlefield.

With a skilled protector secretly protecting him, Bronya instantly realized that kidnapping and threatening him would not work.

But this also proves that he is indeed very valuable, and the information he provides is reliable.

They had already gotten close to Luo Mo, the arrow was on the bowstring, and they had no choice but to fire. Instead of attacking directly, they decided to use a ruse...

Moreover, if—and I mean if—submitting to him could save Seele, it's not something I can't consider...

Discussion before Chapter 22 goes live

"Then, Bronya will remember your kindness." Before leaving, Bronya glanced at the man before her and went her own way.

She doesn't believe anyone can help others without expecting anything in return, and she can't accept such help with a clear conscience.

But if it's Seele, as long as the conditions aren't unimaginable, she'd be willing to accept compensation later.

Everything for Seele.

Not long after she left, Fu Hua walked in from outside. She glanced at Luo Mo indifferently and said:

"Be careful in the future."

Luo Mo was completely confused.

However, he assumed that the video's release had made Fu Hua's security more difficult, as many people were already watching them, and simply responded with a smile:

"I'll stay at the company for a while and go out again after the game is released."

The office has a bed and a desk, it's no worse than a room. There are still many things to confirm before going live, so this rushed launch is understandable.

Most importantly, once he goes online, he might be able to arm himself with gacha pulls. Releasing the game will still bring danger, so he's decided to rely on Fu Hua these next few days!

Fu Mama's strength gives people peace of mind.

Fu Hua ignored him and simply nodded faintly.
