Honkai: It’s broken, I have become the Herrscher of Corrosion?

"Sister Mei, she..."

Bronya, who was dizzy and pale, soon noticed the missing Raiden Mei. In this ever-changing quantum sea, Seele couldn't say "Mei must be safe".

"Don't worry, Xi'er. I won't act on impulse. The most urgent thing is to find a way to get in touch with the Eigenworld and make sure we are safe before rescuing Sister Mei."

Seeing Bronya's abnormal condition, Seele fell into deep thought.

Originally, when deciding who would enter the Quantum Sea, Theresa did not want her students to take the risk, so she suggested that she participate.

However, Theresa's rejection reaction was too strong and she was not qualified to enter the Quantum Sea at all, so she had to give up.

"Unlike Theresa, Sister Bronya was fine until just now, which means she doesn't have that kind of physique, but why..."

"By the way, how are you, my other self?"

[…What, Bronya is fine now, and finally remembered me? ]

"I……"

Listening to the jealous tone of her other self, Xier didn't know what to say in this situation.

"I think……"

[Alright, alright, I'm fine. Or rather, since entering this space, I've been in better condition than usual. But you... unlike Bronya, you look normal, but I always feel like something is not right...]

"Oh, me... let me think..."

[Since you discovered the lavender crack before, why didn't you inform Bronya or discuss it with me, but just assumed that it was a normal phenomenon of the Quantum Sea? ]

"That's of course because... Yes, why, why would I..."

As Xier thought about this, her doubts grew deeper and deeper. She felt that they seemed to have fallen into someone's trap.

[It's not impossible to change the current situation, but... it will scare Bronya. However, doing so may make you both feel more comfortable. When the time comes, the task of explaining will be left to you.]

[By the way, don’t be too surprised. After all…]

As the "other Seele", this was the second time she used that ability outside of the "Mind Room" where she could communicate with Seele, and the targets were still Seele and Bronya.

The first time this ability was put into practice was when Seele was kidnapped and Bronya killed someone with her stockings.

Without any psychological preparation, Xier, who was so timid that she would hide herself in a box and crybaby, directly mistook her for a devil.

Little did she know that this sentence, spoken subconsciously out of fear, directly hurt two people. Not only the other Seele, but Bronya was extremely restrained in killing people from then on, and never showed any skills in front of Seele.

At that time, the retirement of [Ural Silver Wolf] caused a brief uproar in the industry, and many people involved had their own opinions on it. Unfortunately, among all the different opinions, no one knew that what made this genius killer put down his butcher knife was just a word said by a weak girl inadvertently.

For the other Xier, this misunderstanding was undoubtedly a complete awakening of failure.

Xier was mentally prepared, but she didn't understand what the other self was going to do until she saw a black gas coming out of her body and the other self stood on the ground beside her.

"In this special space, we can separate easily like this."

Bronya also noticed the strangeness coming from Seele, and then the dizziness in her brain gradually disappeared, and she gradually woke up.

"Strange, Xier...there are two of them?"

Hei Xi spread his hands and looked at Bai Xi. Bai Xi thought seriously:

"Sister Bronya, actually... ever since I first met you, there have always been two people in this body..."

Bronya looked at the two Seeles thoughtfully without saying a word.

"Sister Bronya, she is actually..."

Xier was speechless for a moment. She actually didn't know why Hei Xi appeared.

"I am another her who was born because of the awakening of See's stigma. That's true in principle, but if you ask me about philosophy, I myself don't know what I am."

"And...it's because I ran out of Xi'er's body that your abnormal condition gradually disappeared."

"...To put it simply, when the three of us exist independently, the quantum sea happens to form a relatively stable structure around us, similar to... how a triangle will not be squeezed and deformed by external forces."

"Whether it's Seele's cognitive impairment of the [Fissure] or Bronya's dizziness, they are also the effects created by this space itself."

Bai Xi looked at Hei Xi with gratitude. Although he had agreed to give him the task of introducing Hei Xi, he still offered to help when Bai Xi was at a loss for words.

"Thank you for your answer, but you misunderstood. Bronya didn't question you. She believed everything Seele said just now. It's better to say that after seeing you, many doubts in Bronya's heart were resolved."

"Thinking back, when Seele was in the orphanage, she would occasionally behave in a way that was completely unlike her. Such things could not be hidden from Bronya's eyes."

Hei Xi suddenly became interested:

"Oh, like what?"

Bronya glanced at Seele and then said:

"For example, under normal circumstances, Xi'er is never picky about food. As long as the food prepared by Cocolia's mother, she can eat it all. But sometimes, she only eats a few dishes, and she will secretly pour the things she doesn't eat into Xing Maer's plate."

"Xi'er likes sweets, but there were a few times when she replaced canned tomatoes for soup with canned peppers, which is also something Xing hates."

"Also, Xi'er obviously loves reading, but there were a few times when she felt sleepy as soon as she touched a book. She would even doze off on the book, and even wet the pages..."

When Bronya looked over, Bai Xi had already lowered her head with a red face, so she swallowed back the dark history that she was about to tell in detail later.

"Wait a minute Bronya, what on earth are you memorizing?"

Perhaps sensing Bai Xi's embarrassment, just as Bronya was about to end the topic, Hei Xi interrupted her.

"These changes are reflected in your gestures. Your personalities and behavior habits are completely different. Even the small movements you make when you are in a daze are worlds apart."

"Rather, it would be strange if we didn't notice so many obvious differences."

Hei Xi glanced at Bai Xi and sneered:

"Humph, that guy probably thought he hid it well and no one knew about it."

"Sister Bronya, I..."

"Seele, you don't have to explain anything to me. Everyone has their own secrets, and this is normal. If Seele wants to keep this secret, Bronya will never reveal it to others. I was lost in thought just now, just thinking..."

Bronya's gaze moved from Bai Xi to Hei Xi.

"Now that Bronya knows about this, it means that she may be able to communicate more with both of you in the future. However, Bronya still doesn't know how to address you."

"Ha, so you were thinking about that just now. If you have anything to say, why don't you just tell Xi'er and let her convey it to me?"

Seeing Hei Xi's seemingly nonchalant look, Bronya shook her head:

"No, maybe sometimes Bronya needs to communicate with you alone. Although you and Seele are inextricably linked, you are ultimately two individuals, so you should also have your own name."

At this time, Bai Xi also realized something:

"Indeed, you are clearly my equal, and it doesn't seem right to always call you by another me... Anyway, I'll be inconvenienced for now... But, after this matter is over, you can think carefully about what your favorite name is, and from now on, we will all call you by that name."

"...Okay, let's hurry up and get down to business. I just explained the reason why there are two Xi'er. I don't even understand why there are two Xi'er. If there is a mastermind behind the changes that just happened, I don't understand why she would process this space into a space where I can move freely without a physical existence like me..."

Unfortunately, this question cannot be answered in a short time. The key now is how to return to the original world. So Seele and Bronya, it's time to take action. Do you want to stay in this hellhole for the rest of your life? "

"Well, you're right. We really can't stay here forever. Sister Bronya, the quantum sea is ever-changing. The safest way now is to enter the nearest world bubble and build a path back to the intrinsic world based on the coordinate relationship between the world bubble and the intrinsic world. Because compared to the quantum sea, the world bubble is relatively stable."

The three of them continued walking forward for a while, and a portal appeared. Xier walked to the door, stretched out her hand, but then pulled it back.

"what happened?"

"I can feel that this place is relatively stable compared to where we were before. But I always feel that there is something around me that makes me feel vaguely uneasy..."
