No one would have ever expected that on a happy day like this, such a tough decision would be made.
Thea and Aurora are going to Schicksal to become valkyries. Leaving Sirin and Kiana here to study more.
"Sirin, I'm sorry for bothering you all this time."
"Eh, what's wrong? Why are you suddenly apologizing?" Sirin raised her eyebrows in confusion.
Suddenly felt something strange change from her body. Sirin notices that the remaining stigmata Herrscher of Death's in her body, are starting to mutate into the stigmata she is familiar with.
"This...?"
Thea explained: "In the beginning I didn't want to give you the stigmata Herrscher of Void for fear of you losing control, and also because of my own stubbornness. Now, since the two of us are leaving, there's no one to look after Kiana at this time. So please, as her sister please take care of Kiana for us."
Felt weird with Thea who suddenly became very tolerant with her. Sirin asked once again suspiciously:
"Do you forgive me?"
"No, don't think too greedily."
Well, she was still the Thea she knew.
Sirin heaved a sigh of relief without knowing why.
"Fine, I'll accept it. After all, I'm her big sister too. You all can trust me."

In the infinite corridor...
In infinite space, without end, and infinity loop....
Kiana who had been running for hours, and looking everywhere for clues. Currently holding her head dizzy.
"Where is the exit!?!"
Kiana really couldn't understand.
This place is very strange. No matter how much she ran, she somehow always felt that she was still walking in the same place.
She moved, and didn't move at the same time. This subverted her logic of common sense.
Kiana became very stressed.
"{Look at yourself, you don't even know what kind of cage you're trapped in. Tell me, is science not important now?}"
"Aurora! Don't just be good at hiding! If you can, fight me one on one honestly!"
"{Hum! Talking to a stubborn girl like you sure gives people a headache. Never mind, I'm already bored.}"
"{We're all finished talking, and it's time to go to bed. You can now go out.}"
"Again!?!"
Suddenly saw an extremely wide portal appear under her feet. Kiana suppressed her instinct to jump, and she finally entered the portal, and landed directly on her own bed.
Coming back from the boundless corridor, Kiana was currently standing on her bed in a daze.
"{Don't sleep too late. As a student who needs to get up early, you should go to bed early so you don't get sleepy at school.}"
"Hey! You're mocking me on purpose!"
Shouted, replying to the sarcastic taunt from Aurora. Kiana gritted her teeth, and she immediately walked out of her room.
"...Where everyone?"
Unlike a few hours ago where the living room was still crowded. The lights in the room dimmed, and the air grew colder and colder.
Looking at the clock on the wall, it was already 11 pm.
Everyone must be asleep by now.
"Ah.... Why do they always keep things secret from me. Why can't I know?"
"Why can't I go with them?"
As a human being who is a group creature. Being together with Thea and Kiana is commonplace.
Just like a pair of very close twins thought that the two of them would be inseparable.
She just didn't expect, that this bond that she thought would be inseparable would be so easily torn apart by the other party without feeling any pain.
Kiana is currently experiencing feelings that have been felt by all young people around the world.
[Abandoned].
It was painful, because she didn't understand why she herself had to be left behind.
Painful in confusion.
In the end, it still hurts.
"Sister Thea..."
"Kiana, you still haven't slept? It's almost midnight. Don't tell me that you're getting hungry again. Mama will be furious."
Entered the stigmata room, and managed to find Thea who was currently sitting alone casually on the sofa watching television. Kiana walked up to one figure in the room, and she hugged her tightly.
"Sister... Don't leave me... I'm scare..."
Thea: "...."
Freeze for a moment, and somehow feel very familiar with these words. Thea stroked Kiana's hair slowly, and she smiled gently.
"What do you need to be afraid of? Kiana is now a big girl. You have many friends, and also many people who will protect you. You are not alone anymore. So, what do you need to worry about?"
Tried to get on the sofa, and immediately lay down, resting her head on Thea's thigh. Kiana shifted her head to the side, and she stared at her sister face with watery eyes.
"I am scare of losing you..."
Kiana said what she was worried about all this time. She really didn't want to part with Thea even though it would only take her a few days.
To her, this big sister was a very reliable person.
Thea who heard this, immediately became silent: "Silly Tuna... If someone else suddenly heard your words, they might think that I will die soon. Why are you saying such ambiguous words?"
"Then why did you leave me alone here? Why can Aurora go while I can't?"
"Well, that's a different matter again Kiana. You know that the battlefield between the Valkyrie and the honkai is very dangerous. We also went there not to play around."
"We all have our own goals that we want to achieve. You are different, you should enjoy your youth as much as possible before growing up."
Lowered her head, and saw Kiana still sulking, disagreeing with what she said. Thea could only sigh in resignation.
In order to deal with a spoiled creature like her little sister, she needed to use a special technique.
"How about this. You need to pass the test to become an A-rank valkyrie, and then you can go with big sister. When that time comes, and you want to go with us, then I won't stand in your way anymore."
"...Really? Was what you said really true? You weren't deceiving were you?"
Thea nodded her head: "I promise. When did I lie to you?"
Hearing this, Kiana puffed her cheeks: "You always lie to me. Sorry, your promise lacks credibility!"
"...."
Mutual silence, because they could not find a thread of agreement. Thea could only stroke Kiana's head gently as usual, and Kiana could only enjoy her sister's caresses silently.
They both fell into silence.
"If... If I become an A-rank Valkyrie, then may I come with you?"
"Hmm..." Thea nodded her head.
"Okay, I'll trust you this time. Only this time. Don't throw away my trust for nothing."
Thea laughed: "Thank you, Kiana. I will protect your trust as best I can."
"Hum! You didn't even say to guard it with all your heart! You are such a big liar!"
"Liar! Liar! Liar!"
Make a joke for a while, and make the atmosphere look cheerful again. Sleepy Kiana, buried her face in Thea's stomach languidly.
"Sister... Let's sleep together..."
"Okay."
"I mean in the real world too..."
"You're really so spoiled Kiana."
"Hehehe..."
Hugging Thea's waist tightly. Tonight Kiana decided never to let her go even if she went to sleep tight.
For tonight...
Thea is hers!
"[As long as there's Mei~ my strength can be comparable to a thousand troops!]"
"[Ahaha... Isn't that too much?]"
"[From the start, you were just a vessel to contain me. I only took what was rightfully mine.]"
"[Kiana, everything would have changed once you wake up. The world will no longer be a pretty place. Life as you know it will be replaced by something else...]"
"[But... don't ever, ever give up!!!]"
"[Himeko-sensei...sorry...]"
"[Kiana, let's go back home. Return to St. Freya, with everyone...]"
"[Mei... I can't...]"
"[Leave the Herrscher to me... this my mission.]"
"[Enough, why is it always like this. Trading sacrifices for so-called victories. It's unacceptable.]"
"[Give monitor, back to me!!!]"
....
Within the endless dream, chaotic whispering sounds kept resounding one after another in her ears.
She felt like she had been having a nightmare. Live a life full of tragedy, and understand how heavy the meaning of a responsibility is.
These memories kept appearing one after another in her mind. But it also disappeared very quickly without leaving any traces.
Just like when she had a bad dream when she was 12 years old.
In the end, within this endless dream, darkness came, and enveloped all of her five senses.
A bottomless darkness, which made the entire surroundings extremely silent.
Desolate, and very quiet.
An unfamiliar memory suddenly appeared in her mind.
"[We can't change the past. But, I believe that with everyone's help, we can make this story more perfect.]"
Raising her right hand high into the sky. Kiana could see the earth they lived in, appearing behind the side of her hand.
"[But... If only... If only with the power of the Cocoon of Finality...]"
"[If only I could go back in time...]"
"[But if I could... What's the price?]"
Darkness came once again.
"...."
"...."
"...."
"...."
"{Pathetic.}"
Within the boundless darkness, a light finally appeared.
A purple light, a light that filled the entire dimension with its color, and revealed a gigantic orb the size of a planet, trapped between the walls of reality.
"Who? Where is this?"
Kiana was very confused.
She could somehow know that this huge purple planet in front of her wasn't an object. But just only a cocoon.
The cocoon should be very chaotic, not having its own thoughts. But somehow, Kiana knew that at this time something was born inside there.
Something, who was currently asleep, and waiting for the right time to wake up.
Something very familiar to her.
"{If you could go back in time, what would you do?}"
"{Change tragedy?}"
"{But before you did all these things, did you know any of the 4 truths of the universe?}"
"{I will tell you.}"
The cocoon finally moved, and the big eye-like ball looked at Kiana from a short distance.
Intimidation, and the most primal fear, filled Kiana's entire head at this moment.
"{This world...}"
"{Just a SHOW STAGE!!!}"
With a very big shock. The dream world started collapsing, and it started erasing everything that was in there.
dream world...
Whispers that coming from the future, for the past...
Kiana...
And also...
Cocoon of Finality.
"{We will meet again.}"
"{I hope you can enjoy your happy time before it all ends.}"
"{Ich liebe Dich~}"

"Kyaa!!!"
Screamed in shock inside her own room. Kiana, who was sweating coldly, finally woke up from her long nightmare.
She breathed in frantically, looked around her, and finally noticed that she was currently back in her own room.
She slowly started to calm down.
"What a strange dream... Why can't I remember anything...?"
When a person is dreaming, the brain usually doesn't bother to remember it. Because it really isn't worth remembering at all.
Kiana is experiencing the same thing right now.
She somehow felt that this dream was very important to her. But no matter how much she tried to recall them, these fragments of memories started to fade in her mind very quickly.
Finally, after a few minutes, Kiana completely forgot what she had just seen and heard from her dream earlier.
Just leaving...
Fear, and a very deep sense of loss.
"No! No! No! Why are you so easy to forget Kiana! Remember!!!"
Hit her head in frustration, and realized that the memories that left could never come back. Kiana clenched her fists tightly, and she took another deep breath.
"Sister Thea... I'm so scared..."
Looking for someone who can her a sense of security. Kiana, who looked around her bed, realized that something had disappeared.
"Sister Thea?"
Kiana asked confusedly.
Last night, they had decided to sleep together. When she woke up, she should still be able to see her sister innocent face when she was fast asleep.
Now, since there was no one else in this room apart from her, where had her big sister gone?
"This is weird, isn't it Monday? Why is the house so quiet... Right! Why didn't anyone wake me up!"
Ran out of her room in a hurry, and went to the living room. Kiana discovered that her entire house was currently completely empty.
Her mother, who always cooked in the kitchen and prepared breakfast for all of them, is now gone...
Aurora, who always watches tv animation in the morning together with Siegfried, who reads the newspaper on the sofa, is also gone...
Her sister Thea, who always made a mess at home, and always couldn't stay still, was not to be seen either.
The whole house became very quiet.
Kiana somehow felt very scared.
"Today is still Monday, isn't it? The clock also shows that it's still 8 in the morning. I can't see wrong."
"Then where did they all go?"
Searched the surroundings for the figures of her family members. Kiana explored various areas of the house, and she also started opening their bedroom doors one by one.
"Sister Sirin! sister Sirin! Please open the door!"
Knocking on the door of Sirin's room which was tightly closed. The sound of footsteps rang out, and with a click, the door that was always locked, finally opened.
"What is it...?" Sirin rubbed her sleepy eyes languidly.
Seeing that Sirin was fine. Kiana breathed a sigh of relief.
The anxiety and fear that had enveloped her heart, finally completely vanished.
"Sister Sirin, where has everyone gone? I can't find them anywhere!"
"Only that...?" Sirin yawned widely: "They all went to the airport this morning..."
"Eh? Why!? Why are they all going to the airport?"
".... Have you forgotten that Thea and Aurora are going with Bianka and Rita today to Schicksal headquarters?"
"Eehhhh!?! Now?! Why didn't you all wake me up!!"
Sirin: "...."
Should she say at this point that the reason why they all left early in the morning secretly was because they didn't want to wake up Kiana, who was still soundly asleep at that time?
However, last night Kiana was the person most unwilling to part with Thea and Aurora.
What if when they arrived at the airport and were about to leave, she immediately whined she wanted to go too?
Everyone will be very troubled.
"Never mind, just forget it. They've all been gone since earlier. Following them to the airport won't have time." Sirin directly extinguished Kiana's hopes mercilessly.
Kiana lowered her head, and she clenched her fists tightly.
"But... I haven't even said goodbye..."
Sirin: "...."
Silent, looking at Kiana who became very sad, and tried to hold back her tears. Sirin let out a very long sigh, and she could finally only scratch her hair in trouble.
"Okay... I will help you. Who made you become my sister."
Using the power of Herrscher of Void's stigmata that Thea just gave her last night. Sirin tore through space, and she created a portal wide enough for them to pass through.
"Let's go, don't be sad anymore."
"Sister Sirin, I love you!!!"
"Yes, yes, I know. Come inside quickly, lest we be late."
"Hm!"
____
At the airport...
Waving her hand to Cecilia and Siegfried who had taken them to the airport, and slowly climbed the stairs to get into the Hyperion ship. Thea suddenly heard Aurora complaining.
"Why are we getting into this scrap metal, isn't it enough to teleport there?"
"Aurora, watch your words. Appreciate the efforts of mama and dad who have brought us here. Let them be happy."
"Huh... It's not like we're going to be separated forever. Won't we meet again in your stigmata room?"
"I told you my cute little sister. Let them be happy."
Looking at each other's eyes sharply, because they felt that there was nothing wrong with their respective opinions. Both Thea and Aurora entered the Hiperion ship, like a mortal enemy.
"Big sister, wait a minute!!!"
"Hm, Kiana?"
Exit the portal with Sirin. Kiana found her sister's figure at the entrance of the Hyperion ship, and she clenched her fists tightly.
She took a deep breath...
"I will definitely become an A-rank valkyrie, and overtake you all! JUST WAIT FOR ME!!!"
Hear Kiana's screams. Everyone aboard the Hyperion has a different reaction.
Thea raised her hand high, and gave Kiana a thumbs up.
Bianka smiled.
Aurora rolled her eyes.
And Rita covered her mouth with a small smile.
"Then we will wait for you!!!"
Waved they hand and entered the Hyperion ship which was about to depart. Kiana, who saw them all leave, also clenched her fists tightly with determination.
She would become an A-rank valkyrie, and stand together with them once again!
Just wait!
Being the riddler was really troublesome. I have to watch my every word and give spoilers but also not spoilers.
It hurts my brain.
