Enter Password- English Version

Big Chapter 3: The Door to one's self, Chapter 23- Nothing

Date: unknown

Location: the Key room

Kaito sat down resolutely in front of the screen. On it flickered in white:

Enter Password: _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

Last time the pedestal had showed up without having to enter the password. So maybe this time too. But what should he do now? Just wait?

The answer was a yawning blackness. A dark circle had built up right behind him.

Kaito whirled around and saw an all-too-well-known figure stomp out of the portal.

"Hello," grinned Niretsu.

"Niretsu," Kaito groaned. "What do you want this time? Show me and say things again that don't make sense?"

Niretsu did not answer at first. Then he moved his hand over the dark and white floor. Slowly but surely, a chair grew out. Unsurprised, he sat down and began to talk to the astonished Kaito.

"I want to tell you a story. I'm asking you this one question, Kaito. Who are you?"

"Who I am? What do you mean?"

"Didn't you notice that so many things are familiar to you in these last worlds? The USB stick; Aima, who reminds you of your little sister; the date of the third energy war, which is completely the same with the death-date of your sister, and which plunged the second world into chaos; the tree in Oritsu that made you feel so comfortable, the flashback of a memory with your sister ... The names Oritsu and Tan'i, even if you forgot the names because of pain ... You forgot everything, everything . You made someone who takes all this pain so that you can live your life"

Niretsu pulled down his hood. Kaito froze in shock.

"How ... how can that be?"

He bascially looked into a mirror image. Almost, because the Kaito on the other side was much older.

"Now the question arises to me ... Who are you actually?"

"I ... I don't understand ..."

"Let me explain it to you ..."

With another movement of Niretsu's hand, the pedestal appeared, with the four sockets for four keys each. One was already filled, from the sphere he had found in Oritsu.

"Use the second key," Niretsu instructed.

As Kaito approached the pedestal, he was filled with inexplicable sadness. Like he had felt it so often here...

Silently, he pushed the card into its slot. Nothing happened.

Niretsu got up too. "And now take this"

In his hand he held a pounding heart that glowed red from within. "The third key"

Kaito was in too much shock, so he followed the instructions, unable to think for himself. He filled the unidentifiable socket with the heart. So that is the form that can fill the weird gap, he vaguely remembered his first visit to the key room.

Suddenly everything began to shake and break. Chunks of earth and stone fell down, only by now Kaito had noticed that he was somewhere completely different. He was in a world full of filth, but the dirt was disappearing with every second.

Soon there was nothing left ... nothing except ... pitch-black darkness and white paint on the floor.

Kaito gasped. "Here again"
