Chapter 260: Collapsed Part Two

Darkness enveloped Misaki. She looked around her wondering where she actually was. "System, where am I?"

"You are inside your own mind. You passed out for some unknown reason. That even I can not understand." The system replied.

"System, do you know about the Origin? Why do I feel that it is all just a lie to keep Chun'er from discovering the real truth." Misaki asked even though she knew the system could not answer her.

"I am not sure of since my data is based on what I can gather per area I go to. Sorry I can not answer that question. But maybe something in your memories can help. You seem to have many memories locked away in the deepest recesses of your mind." Misaki was stunned when hearing this. She had no idea what memories she could have locked away but maybe it could help her in some way.

"How do I access them?" Misaki hoped this would allow her to understand more about herself.

"This… You will need to break a seal that was placed but with your current goddess powers and my power combined we may be able to release some of which is sealed." The system answered. "I will shift us to the seal."

Misaki's dark world suddenly brightened up and in front of her was a large magic circle. It was very intricate and had numbers inscribed into it. It was unlike any magic circle she had seen so far since more had some kind of ancient text inscribed throughout it. "Why numbers?"

"I am not sure. These numbers all form a specific sequence and are made up of billions of lines of code. Even with my current understanding, I can only crack about a thousand lines at most in a short time." The system's voice seemed to be perplexed as it inspected the large magic circle.

"Then let's do this. We will take what we can for now." Misaki said giving her okay to start.

"I must warn you that you may be flooded with a lot of images soon. I will now start." Misaki nodded at the system's voice and instantly was hit with memories of a time she had never seen before.

"Big Sister what are you playing this time?" A young girl asked who was a spitting image of Ah Chun when she was younger. From what Misaki could tell she was sitting at a computer table playing some kind of game. 

"Chun'er, this is the newest MMO to come out called Eternal Phantasy. It has gotten many high reviews." Misaki recognized her voice right away. So she knew the eyes she was looking through were her own. But she did not understand why Ah Chun was in her memories.

"Big Sister you used a funny name again!" Ah Chun giggled as she hung on Misaki's arm watching her go through a character creation screen.

"I just happen to like Japanese names. This reads Misaki Mitsu. A good name right?" Misaki said while patting Ah Chun on the head.

"But your name is just as good. Feng Wei is a really good name!" Ah Chun protested. "Ai, also uses weird names in her games as well. She played one game and named herself something… I think it was… something Akari… But now she is obsessed with a book with a princess knight called Alicia." 

"Ai has always been like that. Her interests always change. But lately, it has been things about knights and princesses." Misaki explained as she moved her chair back and patted her lap. Ah Chun smiled brightly and climbed into Misaki's lap. 

"Big Sister, Chun'er wishes for you and Ai to be happy." Ah Chun said as she leaned her head back against Misaki's chest.

"And I wish for you to be happy as well."

The scenes changed and Misaki was now in a large white room. "Big Sister where are we?" 

"I'm… I am not sure… Mom said we had to come here for a check up but we have not seen her since we were taken in." Misaki's voice was filled with worry as she gripped the two little girls' hands.

"Your mother has left you in our care. You will be treated very well here so do not worry." A voice came from behind them. Misaki turned to see a woman in a white medical jacket with a clipboard in her hand.

"You are Wei, Ai, and Chun, if I am correct. Sorry, my Chinese is not the best." The woman said. It was only now that Ai realized that they had been speaking in Chinese. But from the tone of the woman's voice, she could tell the woman was not good at the language.

"What do you mean by our mother left us here?" Misaki asked, pulling the two young girls behind her.

"Just as I said. You three will be helping with a study. Please just follow what we say and do not make things difficult for us." 

"System what is this!?" Misaki was having a hard time understanding what she was seeing.

"I am not sure. This is what was locked away." 

"I do not understand any of this!" Misaki continued to watch many things happening as memories continued to pour into her. At some point, everything turned black once again and she heard bickering going on around her. Misaki furrowed her brow as she said groggily: "Why are you all shouting? Is a girl not allowed to get some sleep? Can you all take your fighting elsewhere so I can sleep more?"
