When I woke up from the sleep, Eirin is no where to be found. I felt like I've been sleeping for very long time but I don't know why.
"How long have I been asleep?" I questioned myself. But how could I knew. I was sleeping.
I looked around myself and found myself near the altar. There is also something that resemble a card in my hand. The back of the card is empty. Not just blank but utter emptiness. As if the card doesn't even exist. It is covered in a thin transperant plain that looks like some kind of glass. The front of the card has a picture.
"This is when Eirin was frozen in time back in that world. But I don't remember taking a picture of it. More importantly, where is she?" I muttered myself and tried to head toward the buildind. But something about the card is bothering me.
I put the card on the device in the middle of the altar. The bright beam of light flashed toward the sky as soon as the card is on it and the card has disappeared.
"I can find it in the library." 'I can hear my own voice saying that in my head. But I didn't say anything. How did I know that?'
I head toward the building to find Eirin. When I reached the elevator, I cam see the that button for the library has been unlocked. But I went to the canteen to find Eirin.
"She isn't here either. But there are some traces of the items. I'll check the control room to see if I can find anymore clue." Not finding her in the canteen, I went to the control room to gather more info.
Once I reached there, I head to the computer and search for the log. And not surprisingly, there is that function.
The log shows two more dive after the one I did with Eirin. First one is 50 system hours after the one with me and that took 126 system hours to return. And the second is 30 system hours after the first one. There is no return log yet. But that was 13080 system hours ago.
"She must either be frozen again or in danger. But it was more than a year. How did I slept that long?" I said to myself. My mind has been cloudly since I woke up and thinking more of it make me feel dizzy.
I check the log again and the second dive was on the floor 2. The person on the log was also written Eirin.
"The floor 2 has been unlocked. What's the difference between floors? Should I go now or check the library first?" I questioned myself for a while.
"I'll just check the library. It's already been more than a year anyway. A few more hours can wait me." I decided to check the library.
Once inside the elevator, I noticed that the floor 2 has really been unlocked.
"Strange that I didn't noticed it last time."
When I am at the library, I noticed that there is a human figure in the reception. I approached it but it turned out to be a doll like my current body. I check it out and shook it but it's not moving.
"Maybe it's just an actual doll. After all, the resident list only has me as a commander and Eirin I added. Anyway, let's look for the card first."
When I looked around the library, I tried to look at some books but all the books has been sealed tight and indestructable. The other side of the library is just blank shelves. But there are two bright items on one of the shelve. I approached and look at them closely.
"They are cards like the one before. One of them is the one from before but what is the other one?" I said to myself and looked at the other card.
The picture in the card is just a rain and clouds but the colours are off. They are also stuck on the shelf there is also no button like in the gallery.
While looking at them I got some weird headaches again. And I learned something as if I got some of my memories back.
'They are captured memory cards they captured the moment and let us create the event inside them. They are more like skill cards. I can either pull them out of my body like the items from gallery.' But how did I get them?
"That being said, I should also go to the gallery to get some more items. I still have two more item slots."
I rushed toward the elevator to go to the gallery.
"There is an egg with colourful paints on the reception. It wasn't here last time." I ignored it and continue toward the gallery.
There items in the gallery are same as before. But I haven't check all of the yet. I took the revolver and registered toward the card.
"This gun can revive the people that the killer has killed by shooting the killer. It might come in handy later."
After registering the gun, I look around the weird item but they are mostly just weird than useful. But something caught my attention.
I saw a mask. It has no features and clear and reflective as mirror but I know it is a mask.
"This is my maks." I said it out of conscious.
The mask can let the user change the appearance of the user. With my current appearance, I could use it to communicate with other people more comfortable. But,... 'Do I want to?'
I registered the mask on my last item slot and head back to the control room.
I set the world Eirin was in as a priority on the floor 2. After that I enter the elevator and head toward the floor 2.
The elevator door opened and I entered the floor. The scenery it more natural than the previous floor but the structure is still the same. There are also many doors. There are some lights leading toward one door. It must be the world she is in.
"So this is the second floor. Heh." I giggle abit and enter the door leading to the world Eirin was in.
