I think that you may be referring to fluid by pass, this is when under light pedal pressure fluid passes past the primary master cylinder cup seal and you get a sinking pedal, poor breaking and no sign of fluid loss.

Yes, correct but where does the brake fluid go since there are no visible signs of a leak? Thanks mhpautos.

It just bypasses the seal and stays in the rear of the master which is still the resiviour. We are talking aboyt only a few ml of fluid here.
