Honkai Impact 3rd: I picked up a Seele at the start of the game.

……

Yun Fuyu opened his eyes again and looked at the two Seele who were almost identical... He had to admit that he was indeed attracted to the world bubble Seele.

The memory was so vivid; he seemed to see how he met Seele, the world bubble, played with her in the orphanage, felt reluctant to part, and ventured out into the world with the belief of protecting Seele... until finally, the joy that almost pierced his heart when they reunited.

I suppose this Seele is the same way.

The condition of "mutual trust" was met during their first meeting. As a result, Seele also received the blessing of the Origin Land.

This vow is:

I've finally found you.

I want to be with you.

(Thinking a bit further, Alicia could actually easily meet the conditions for mutual trust, but she hasn't met Yun Fuyu in real life... Hmm? What is she running away from?)

"..."

After calming herself down, Yun Fuyu explained, "This body shares the same origin as me; it's a projection of my power. Like this—"

He snapped his fingers, and one of the two Cloud Auxiliary Rains suddenly transformed into pure Honkai energy and returned to the other Cloud Auxiliary Rain.

He snapped his fingers again, and the Honkai energy within him spontaneously detached, constructing a new body on the outside. His consciousness then projected onto this body, and both Yun Fuyu spoke simultaneously:

"My information is imprinted in this world, but it's uncertain whether it was originally there or entered during the repair of the etheric singularity."

"The awkward thing now is that I seem to have really become the cloud and rain of this world. My mind has been filled with memories of this world out of nowhere, especially... memories of this Seele."

He withdrew this avatar and stared at Seele the World in silence.

Seele's eyes widened!

She hasn't even submitted to Alicia, Black Seele, or Bronya yet, and you've already submitted to this Seele?!

Even though they're both Seele, but... Waaaaaaah! I still can't accept it!

Especially when she noticed that the way Seele looked at Yun Fuyu was starting to look drool-worthy, and a blush was gradually appearing on her cute face that was exactly the same as hers... Why are you blushing like a teapot?!

Just as Seele was in a fit of impotent rage, Bronya suddenly coughed and said with a joyful tone, "I say, this is a good thing! This Yun something-or-other, you can stay in this world and stay with this Seele forever. I'll take my Seele back right now!"

Yun Fuyu and Xier said in unison, "No way!"

"..."

They exchanged a glance, and Seele spoke first: "Bronya, the 'me' here is not the original me. Although I am essentially a person, my real body should still be in seclusion in the Sage's Tower."

Whether it's a possible time paradox or Seele's inner desire to "stay in the pre-civilization world to investigate the truth and change the tragedy," Seele doesn't want "two selves to overlap."

Yun Fuyu then said, "I have the ability to project my consciousness into this world bubble. Although the skill has a long cooldown, it can still barely replace Yun Fuyu in the world bubble."

"However, I can say with certainty that Seele is the only one in my heart. This world bubble Seele... I'm sorry, but if Seele doesn't agree, then I will never come to this world again."

He was actually somewhat trying to shift the blame to Seele, to see if Seele would agree to him continuing to maintain contact with Seele in World Bubble...

However, his words were indeed beyond reproach. He truly placed Seele first in his heart.

Rather, it's more accurate to say that because Seele herself probably has many "old flames," she's always been anxious, afraid that Yun Fuyu will "misunderstanding" (there's no misunderstanding at all, because he really does have), and that she feels she owes him something.

Well, that's Seele for you, always putting others first.

She sighed and looked at Shijiepao Xier: "If you need Ayun, I shouldn't stop him—we have no relationship anyway."

Yeah, we agreed she'd confess as soon as she got home, but after 36,000 words, there's still no sign of it... So they're still just ordinary friends, ugh!!

Hield's deep blue, piercingly menacing eyes revealed a clear threat: "But your memories might be fake, so don't get too caught up in them!"

It's even possible that their memories actually come from Seele, and that this world bubble Seele is an incarnation of Seele.

But I still really hate this feeling!

I'll say it again, that's mine! Mine!! Mine!!

Bronya clicked her tongue, looking regretful. Hei Xi once again glared at Yun Fuyu with the look of utter contempt... Six times! Six times already! Did he really think he didn't hold grudges?!

Yun Fuyu had already secretly planned to tease the now-deceased Seele as much as possible after they returned. She was confident that things would get quite interesting once their memories merged…

Well, thinking about this, he felt a little lost himself.

Seele wasn't the only Seele for him, a feeling that was hard to describe, but there was always a sense of distance between them.

If Seele is truly the Seele of the present civilization, then is she still his Seele?

Just like he often said to Seele: You are the most special Seele in my heart, not a substitute for anyone.

Conversely, he is the only one in Seele's heart, so Seele is the most special to him.

Feeling upset.

Perhaps sensing the unusual nature beneath his smile, Seele stopped playing around with World Bubble Seele and solemnly said, "Goodbye everyone, it's time for us to leave."

She turned around, took Yun Fuyu's hand, and looked up, her bright eyes meeting his.

"Please wait!"

Suddenly, Shiro approached, took out a strangely shaped doll from her person, and handed it to Yun Fuyu.

She stammered, "This is the only gift A-Yun ever gave me. We parted ways after that... Anyway, please accept it."

It is most difficult to accept the kindness of a beautiful woman.

Yun Fuyu glanced at Xier, who helplessly closed her eyes, indicating her agreement.

So, he took the plush hand puppet, whose nature was unclear, and with his other hand reached towards Seele's head, gently plucked a strand of her hair, and tied it to the puppet. (Honkai can pull hair painlessly.)

He said jokingly, "I'll come back and give this doll back to you when my skill cooldown is over."

Suddenly, endless light shone in Seele's eyes, as if her whole being came alive.

She nodded vigorously: "We made a promise! Pinky promise!"

"Yeah, hook."

Their little fingers were linked, then quickly separated. World Bubble Seele silently took a few steps back, smiling and waving at them.

Goodbye.

Bronya was very worried: "Seele, whatever you want to do, you can always ask us for help."

Hei hope looked displeased: "If you dare to put Xi'er in danger again next time we meet, you can just wait to die!"

World Bubble's Mei smiled and waved. The beautiful girl, Kaiwen, who looked remarkably like Kiana, watched them with some curiosity. Möbius, still picking at his nails, casually said 'Bye-bye'.

Yun Fuyu and Xier said "goodbye" to everyone, and then stood facing each other.

Fingertip touch.

Our eyes met.

A meeting of minds.

—The world spins.

A person who is sleeping suddenly wakes up from a dream; a person who is drowning suddenly breaks free from the water.

Suddenly, I heard a soft hum in my ear.

"Sleep, sleep now, my dear."

"The warm ocean envelops you, and the fairy's song lulls you to sleep."

A gentle voice hummed a fairytale lullaby in my ear, plunging the world into an endless, dark abyss.
