Chapter 163: Chapter 163: Shy Black Seele
[In the Video]
Before preparing to exchange body control rights, Seele suddenly turned her head to look at Black Seele and asked, 'Right, the other me, you still haven't told me the name you like… I want to use the name you like to call you...'
She vaguely remembered that a long time ago someone had also called her like this, but at this moment, she couldn't recall who that person was.
'Seele...'
"Ah? I'm here." Seele subconsciously responded.
Looking at Seele's dazed and cute appearance, Black Seele helplessly said, 'I meant, that is the name I like.'
"Ah!"
Hearing this, Seele's face turned slightly red as she nodded, "Mm, I understand!"
'I just think that since we already share a body, sharing a name too doesn't feel bad, no other meaning.' Black Seele added, pretending to be calm.
To this, Seele had an expression of 'I understand but I won't expose you'.
"Hu hu~ Then next, I'll leave it to you, Seele."
After the exchange of body control rights, Seele underwent huge changes in both appearance and weapon.
Her clothes changed from the previous blue-and-white color scheme to the red-and-black color scheme symbolizing Black Seele, and her weapon changed from a scythe to sharp claws.
Of course, the most obvious was the change in temperament.
If Seele gave people the feeling of a soft and gentle next-door younger sister, then Black Seele gave the feeling of a domineering campus queen.
Moreover, when Black Seele approached and brutally tore apart the puppets one by one in a cruel way, the viewers in the real world all loudly cheered with excitement.
———
[Black Seele, well done!]
[This is what happens when you talk trash!]
[Puppet: I just like your look of hating me but being unable to kill me]
[Black Seele: Alright then, let me test your quality]

Accompanied by Black Seele's 'cheerful' laughter, the puppets in the theater of domination scattered on the ground like trash.
Even so, she was still unsatisfied.
'What a joke! Daring to stir up the relationship between me and Seele, dying ten thousand times won't be enough!'
After clearing out another batch of puppets, Black Seele stepped on their remains with a look of disdain.
"Hmph~ Is this really all you've got? Please, be more serious, try harder, do your best to please me~"
"If the toys are broken, they'll be thrown into the trash pile~ Hahahahaha!"
———
[Damn! Black Seele is toxic, but I love her toxicness!]
[With this line, who is actually the villain here?]
[Black Seele's healthy laughter, like she just ate eight elders from the Soul Hall]
[Sorry for scaring you all, my wife's personality is just a bit crazy, I'll take her home now]
[Upstairs, do you also want to end up like the puppets in the video?]
———

Although from the perspective of combat power, Black Seele held absolute advantage.
Whether it was these foul-mouthed puppets, or the Honkai beasts summoned by the puppets, they couldn't even survive one move in front of Black Seele.
But what concerned Black Seele was that these puppets seemed unafraid of death.
'Break one, and ten more would appear.'
Thinking of this, Black Seele even suspected that she really had to kill a thousand puppets to leave this damned place.
"No, no! I almost fell into it. I don't care how many puppets I have to kill. In short, anyone who dares to stir up the relationship between me and Seele must die!!!"
At this moment, Black Seele suddenly felt a powerful force surge from the depths of her soul.
And with this surge of power, a piece of memory once forgotten also emerged in her mind.
Back then, the two of them were trapped in a room called the Quantum Sea, aimlessly waiting. There was no concept of time here, only void.
So most of the time, Seele slept, choosing to hand over the control of the body to herself.
Until one day, a door suddenly opened in that dark room.
The moment light shone through the crack in the door into the room, instead of feeling the joy of surviving disaster, Black Seele felt an unusual fear.
Because she keenly sensed a powerful pressure from beyond the door.
With her sharp personality, she immediately imagined countless possible scenarios they might face in the future.
Becoming a test subject for some mysterious organization, just like Seele once was? Or being forced to sell her life to a devil? Becoming its claw in the human world?
Of course, there was also the possibility of becoming a big figure's forbidden pet, a caged canary.
No matter which of these, none were what Black Seele wanted.
So she decided that if an accident happened, she would do everything she could to give Seele a chance to escape.
Thinking of this, she cautiously approached the door, then walked out.
What met her eyes was a white-haired man with an indifferent expression.
Logically speaking, the man's expression was enough to make Black Seele back away. But in reality, Black Seele felt complex emotions from the man's eyes.
There was gentleness... nostalgia... and release... Even a trace of guilt?
Just as Black Seele was thinking, the man finally spoke.
"You are free now. Take the other soul in your body and leave."
The man's selfless act only made Black Seele more alert.
Although not many years had passed since her birth, Black Seele still knew the principle of "what's free is the most expensive."
Could it be that this man wanted to gain her favor this way and achieve some unknown purpose?
So Black Seele thought. But unexpectedly, the other party did not ask her to pay any price for saving her, and even helped her grasp the power hidden in this body.
Moreover, he told her how to explore this mysterious sea without being disturbed by the quantum shadows.
Though as time passed and they interacted day and night, Black Seele came to understand that the man held no malice towards her and Seele.
But to be safe, Black Seele always kept a trace of vigilance toward the man.
Because of this, she never told Seele about the man's existence, and even met him only when Seele was in deep sleep.
The only thing she told Seele was that a powerful being had saved them. Nothing more.
Later, due to certain reasons, Black Seele accidentally entered a memory left by the man in the Quantum Sea.
Feeling the despair the man once felt, experiencing the pain the man once endured. Only then did Black Seele understand what kind of person he really was.
As she learned more about the man, Black Seele also became increasingly curious about this man like a mystery.
She still remembered the scene of her last meeting with the man.
At that time, the man told her that soon, she and Seele would be able to leave this damned place.
To Seele, this was certainly good news. But to Black Seele, it wasn't.
Because she sensed the tone of farewell in the man's voice.
Thinking of this, Black Seele immediately wanted to ask the man about his future plans.
But when the words reached her lips, they turned into, "That's great, I can finally stop living such a terrible life."
