(Blood, rivers of blood...Ugh... Is that a horror story?)
Seele shrugged.
As for horror stories, she was ashamed just to hear those four words, let alone read them.
(Horror stories? Yes, that kind. They just have to be exciting.)
The inner personality sadly nodded.
She felt that she had fallen asleep because the fairy tale Seele had read to her was too boring.
She wouldn't fall asleep if it were a horror story.
"Cocolia, are you there?"
At that moment, Seele overheard Reanna calling Cocolia.
"After you complete today's mission, please help me buy some things... well, how should I put it? Things that young people like, such as games, comics, etc."
"Eh? You say you don't understand?"
An embarrassed look crossed Reanna's face.
"Aren't you a young person too? "
"Although it's not pleasant to say it, Lady Reanna, I'm not shirking my duties. "
"I'm actually quite curious about what young people like, since I'm almost forty."
Cocolia, who was directing the mech troops on the other end of the phone, seemed bewildered.
She really could connect with ordinary people.
Although she was quite happy about it, to be honest, she really wasn't young!
No, it must be said that being treated as a young person by Reanna shouldn't be a happy thing at all.
"Forty, forty... isn't that still quite young? "
Reanna felt a little guilty.
But it seems she has realized it.
In this case, Cocolia cannot be considered a young person.
"In your eyes, those under thirty are children, and those over thirty are young people, aren't they?"
When it came to issues related to her age, Cocolia rarely complained about Reanna.
My boss's definition of age is completely wrong.
Who would look for young people instead of her?
"If you want to know what young people like, why not... well, ask Raiden Ryoma? , I remember he is very modern, right?"
Damn it, after thinking about it carefully, did Cocolia find that the only acquaintance her age around her was Raiden Ryoma?
Can this Anti-Entropy be cured?
"Him? Isn't he an uncle already? "
"Why is your definition so precise at this moment?"
"Because they have already formed a family and have established professional careers, and their daughters can help with household chores"
Reanna said naturally.
"Your way of thinking is really old-fashioned."
Cocolia, on the other end of the phone, couldn't help putting her hand to her forehead.
Although this idea was not wrong from a certain perspective, but... forget it, maybe there was an age difference between her and Lady Reanna.
"But fine, let's ask him about the young man, okay? "
"It's okay."
In desperation, Reanna hung up the call with Cocolia and called Raiden Ryoma's cell phone.
"Hey... Lady Reanna, do you have any instructions?"
The call was answered immediately
"Are you completely free, Ryoma?"
"No, I'm taking my Mei to school. "
"Is there an emergency order? "
"It's not really an emergency... Well, after you drop off the child, bring me some things that young people like. "
"Things that young people like... comics and games?
Compared to Cocolia, there are many things you can understand about Raiden Ryoma at first glance.
"As for comics... the youth's favorite is undoubtedly The Homunculus's Adventure, and as for games... I'm sorry to admit it, but the Kallen Fantasy that the bishop created is quite good, I happen to have the complete collection, so if you want it, I'll give it to you."
"Is that okay? "
"You already have the whole set, this game must be very important to you, right? "
"It's okay. "
I usually buy three copies: one for use, one for collection, and one for preaching.
I happen to have one to give you.
"…"
For use, collection, preaching...?
Are young people today so extravagant?
As if noticing Reanna's strange silence, Raiden Ryoma immediately defended himself.
"Well, Uncle Welt recommended this game to me, do you believe it?"
"I believe it, but which Welt?"
"Uncle Joyce, I usually call Yang brother. By the way, Brother Yang also has a collection."
Reanna felt that her own Anti-Entropy might need a major cleanup.
"Isn't it true that buying games this way is simply giving money to Schicksal? "
"I still don't know anything about this."
"Because no one dares to do this in front of you, Lady Reanna..."
Raiden Ryoma replied very honestly.
After all, Reanna is an Anti-Entropy veteran and a super elder who has lived for about two hundred years.
May God have mercy on her, let alone him.
Even Joyce was just a sixty-year-old young man to her.
Who wouldn't stand upright when seeing Reanna?
By the way, I have to say something.
If we look at the date of birth, Yang, the current godson, is older than Joyce, the godfather.
Well, but since this matter is so embarrassing, no one will mention it.
"I have been considering confiscating these things you have. I have always thought it would be much faster to confiscate them directly than to let you bring them here, and maybe there will be unexpected gains."
"Lady Reanna... are you some kind of demon?"
Confiscation or something, don't do that kind of thing——!
"Well, then, Lady Reanna, where should I send your things? "
Raiden Ryoma quickly changed the subject.
After all, if he continued with the topic, he might become a sinner in the Anti-Entropy video game circle.
"Cocolia Orphanage."
"Ah, Sister Cocolia? "
Raiden Ryoma was a little surprised.
"In that case, how about I buy a few more and send them to you tonight? "
It's a great opportunity for my daughter to meet more friends.
Given that the two people are not political enemies in this timeline, the relationship between Raiden Ryoma and Cocolia is quite good.
"Doesn't Mei have many friends at school?"
"It's not that there aren't many, but... they are few, besides, I think the friends around Mei are not friends worth befriending."
At the end of his words, Raiden Ryoma lowered his voice, obviously not wanting Mei to hear him.
"Anyway, if you don't mind, I'll send it to you tonight."
"Sister Reanna... uh, I want some horror stories, is that okay?"
Seele asked timidly.
Is it too sudden to ask this?
"A horror story?"
Reanna looked at Seele strangely.
"Why do you suddenly want to read a horror story?"
"I'm a little curious..."
Ugh... I lied again...
I'm not curious.
Horror stories like these will give me nightmares, right?
(I'm the one who is watching, not you, so what is there to be afraid of?)
The inner personality is very annoyed with Seele's weakness.
"I see..."
Reanna slightly raised her head and was about to think about it when she found that the doll possessed by Tian Shi nodded.
The Leader?
And Bronya?
Why are these two people... huh, it seems like they are monitoring Seele?
Reanna silently filed this in her mind and then continued.
"Well, Seele, but don't be afraid to sleep. "
"Understood, Raiden Ryoma? Bring horror stories for children. "
"…"
A horror story for children?
Why don't you go look for the three-legged golden toad?
Raiden Ryoma really wanted to complain, but the person in front of him was Lady Reanna... he couldn't afford to complain.
"I understand. If I find them, I will bring them tonight ."
Isn't that asking too much?
This is the tragedy of being a corporate slave.
When one is faced with unreasonable demands from superiors, one can only nod and agree.
Raiden Ryoma, president of the multinational ME Corporation, thought with emotion.
"So, are you saying that Seele has a double personality?"
......................
Later in the Afternoon In the afternoon, Reanna found Tian Shi and, after chatting with him about Seele, silently put her hand to her forehead.
Bronya, who was listening to the whole process, also looked incredulous at that moment.
"Before this, that child didn't seem to have a double personality at all, right?"
Reanna couldn't imagine that the charming and well-behaved Seele had a double personality.
"What about you, Bronya? "
"You and Seele are usually the closest, do you feel that way? "
"Bronya does not feel that way at all."
Bronya shook her head.
"Please trust the judgment of an elder."
Although Tian Shi had previously emphasized that he was young, he could only use that identity to put pressure on others at that moment.
After all, direct evidence was not enough at that moment.
"But, of course, although it is said to have a double personality, the other one comes from the stigmata."
"Then it's innate, right?"
Tian Shi's correction did not reassure Reanna at all.
There are not many people who are born with a double personality, but if they are born with stigmata, then it is no different from being born with it.
"It doesn't matter if it's the will of God or not. What I mean is that you should be very familiar with the power of that stigmata."
Tian Shi looked at Reanna.
"Me?"
"Abyss Flower, Herrscher of Death."
"Well... but the Gem of Serenity..."
During the Second Collapse, the Pseudo-Herrscher of Death directly confronted Otto, and Otto personally intercepted him.
"At this moment they are two different things."
Tian Shi waved his hand.
"For now, stigmata are just stigmata, don't overthink it, but you should be familiar with that power."
If it really is the power of the Abyss Flower, I can't refute it.
But I need to experience it.
What are the dangers?
"Very low, Seele is Seele, the Seele you know is not fake."
"That means the one who really controls the body is Seele... That's right, after all, it's just the personality of the Stigmata. "
Reanna nodded.
Although Bronya did not fully understand the words Herrscher and Gem, she could still understand that Seele was still Seele, so she was relieved.
"But Seele... let's call her Dark Seele, Dark Seele is probably Seele, but with a completely opposite personality. "
"And when Dark Seele appears, her pupils turn red and her ability to control Honkai energy increases significantly, overall, it is very easy to distinguish them."
Tian Shi introduced them both.
"But the only thing they have in common are their likes and dislikes."
"Dark Seele likes and dislikes exactly the same as Seele."
"For example, if Seele likes Bronya, Dark Seele will also like her, although the way of expressing it may be a little different."
"This news is really reassuring..."
Suddenly Reanna remembered something.
"So, was it Dark Seele who wanted a horror story? But when she spoke to me..."
Reanna remembered that, when she spoke to her, Seele's pupils were blue.
This means that both personalities are starting to communicate.
Without a doubt, it is good news; at least, a situation like last night will not happen again.
Although Seele's stress reaction scared Tian Shi last night, after all, they share the same opinion.
Dark Seele spoils Seele so much, so how could she really complicate things for her?
As for the real reason why Dark Seele appeared... it should be because of last night's shooting.
Perhaps Dark Seele already knows what happened, but it's already too late to mention it.
The original Seele was kidnapped and saw Bronya, covered in blood after killing all the mercenaries to save her.
In fear, her inner personality fully emerged.
And last night I should have realized the two elements of "weapon" and "kill," right?
After all, Bronya's excuse last night was very poor.
At that moment, Reanna's cell phone suddenly rang.
"Raiden Ryoma."
Reanna looked at her phone.
"His daughter, Mei Raiden, came with him, let's go get them. "
"Do you need my body? "
"No, why would I have to go for such an insignificant matter? "
And if Edison hadn't told me about me, I wouldn't have had to go.
Tian Shi seriously suspected that Edison blocked his information to prevent fires, thefts, and his best friend.
Although Edison and Einstein were not close friends.
"Understood."
The subject of Seele has come to an end for now; it must be finished.
There really is no scientist who can be considered competent in the field of Anti-Entropy in the human body, so there is no way to address Seele's situation.
Afterward, several people saw the transport plane landing and a father and his daughter outside the orphanage.
"Good afternoon, Lady Reanna. "
As if thinking about the word "confiscate," Raiden Ryoma forced a smile at the corners of his lips.
"Here are the comics, horror stories, and games you requested... um, the complete deluxe collector's edition."
To avoid confiscation, Raiden Ryoma spent a huge amount of money.
"Good afternoon, Aunt Reanna."
Mei Raiden, fifteen years old, was not as reserved as her father and greeted Reanna very politely.
"Aunt...?"
I was used to being called sister in the orphanage, so when someone suddenly called me aunt or something... I felt a little sad.
Then Reanna saw Raiden Ryoma put down his things and run back.
"Your daughter?"
"Tomorrow is the weekend, so I ask Lady Reanna to take care of Mei and help her make more friends."
