"Tak-tak-tak"
A sound echoed continuously as if it were inside an empty well, the sound of water drops, a slight light penetrating into these heavy eyelids, 'H-this sound is it a cave, hehe, I would not escape from the claws of fate to the claws of hell, I can only... ', inside a dark consciousness was a naked human body lying without gravity
It was Ryota!
What was clear was the clear crease between his eyes, the exhaustion, the pain, the guilt, the hesitation, Ryota's consciousness suddenly seemed to be penetrated by many emotions from within his core.
Let's go back a little to the past.
Days pass in this world differently than on Earth. Ryota discovered that the interval of 6 days is equal to one day on Earth. Even if Ryota moved from one world to another, his consciousness still belonged to the peak of the previous world, his memories, his knowledge, the level of his thoughts. That world belonged to him. Ryota's mind.
Moving into this world is as if restrictions were placed on his mind.
It's a total difference!
And now, finally, after Ryouta collected the scattered pieces of his life from a previous ordeal in the sand hell, he once again seemed to fall into an unexpected situation!
It was even this that caused him, at the time when he found himself in the sand, to make false predictions.
Human, are you still trying to suppress your thoughts, come on, I will help you train you."
"Training, any training, can't you tell I'm just miserable?"
"Don't act on me, look, I can detect the activation of your essence."
But suddenly a fateful encounter with an entity from this world appeared. Ryouta was initially under the heavy grip of death. His life was burning under the scorching rays of the sun. He did not have time to hesitate and try to notice the signs.
But Ryota used his previous nature, which made him a person in the previous world.
His acting!
As a human being who derived his appearance from beneath the masks, he always had several psychological solutions with others.
At that moment, Ryouta chose his weakness and exploited it to arouse sympathy from the other entity. It was a different world. How could such naive things work?
However, all the previous cases became cold because of one thing.
It was communication!
That ability to understand each other even with their different affiliations made Ryouta a little confused, '
But another pressure came down and there was no time to waste when the entity in front of him could read his thoughts.
Ryota decided to submit automatically, and in those days that passed, no point of conflict appeared, but rather he tried to bring them closer to understanding each other.
On the contrary, he showed a naive position at the same time giving rational positions in a logical manner.
That was the time when he told her a fabricated story of his own, and Ryouta wasn't worried about his words being suspicious, 'Like a tree that spent its life in the middle of a desert, how could it disbelieve me, even if it meant it, and also how could it have thought that I couldn't find out? , mind reading ? ...What an obvious lie.' Ryouta was a person with keen insight, who always gave things more than they were worth, and prioritized consequences over losses.
There is always a limit to the losses that can be incurred, but the consequences have always had harsh endings.
In fact, while he was staying under the tree, he was in deep thought about how the tree could read his thoughts, "This tree, every time it appears in front of me, can know what I am about to do, but that is not the truth. This tree can know my movements and then deduce my thoughts." Among them, with such a firm belief, Ryota began to test several methods to confirm his hypothesis.
And it was correct!
Peeping into the future was not ideal. A voyeur could know the direction of the course of events but could not know the deep intentions behind them.
At that moment, Azusa thought that Ryouta was hallucinating his sleep every night, and she half believed him, but that was wrong. Ryouta was testing her.
He was conscious!
Everything he showed was in order to extract as much information as possible from her.
'A tree can lay eggs for its own offspring, hehe, he himself said it that time, "These are my children," even if she still wanted to hide it, how would she hide it? '...It was an admission that she had no good intentions against me.' Azusa was trying every time to make Ryota food for her children.
What a joke!
Ryouta instead of refusing, he willingly stepped forward to help her, but it was the opposite, 'Plants can grow due to natural factors, however in this world these factors are only mana essence, the brighter the mana essence was the more beneficial it was, but what would happen? If I combine my thoughts with my energy in the injection process? , lhave. This was a major loophole in the process.
But there were difficulties in making this operation successful, as Azusa's method of peeping into the future was incomplete.
Her prophecies were restricted!
First, Azusa was unable to know Ryota's movements later, and the reason was because she woke up from her senses. Azusa would not be able to know the future without falling asleep.
The lake was inside the dreams of its essence, its exit meant the cancellation of that ability.
Without knowing about the future, Azusa was confused, and this is where Ryouta came into his plan.
Ryouta created an idea and combined it with his mana essence. The idea was like this: Every time I consume an essence, I will lose consciousness, and at the same time, the effects of the ideas that I inject into the plants will disappear.
This was a columnHe plays a major role in his plan with his superior advantage over it.
Intelligence!
Thus, every time Ryouta consumes his essence, he begins to lose consciousness, even if his essence is not completely empty.
This made Azusa no longer able to enter her energy core, no, she no longer needed to. She found that Ryouta bore the entire burden of her children's development.
She could not notice this due to her slow nature, yet Ryouta knew through his constant caution.
The person in front of him has lost his position, and his defense of him has become much more relaxed than before.
Ryouta then injected a dimension of his created memories into the plants to speed up the work.
He also began to have a belief about this world, 'This world's development is slow, even with its fast timeline, and also the mechanism of mana's work has many conditions, the most important of which is knowledge. It depends on how long the person is.' Even if the mind is full of knowledge, without an element of guidance, its only knowledge. It will end up fading away
Finally, the day that Ryouta had been waiting for and working for finally came. Through his previous efforts, Ryouta was completely certain of the success of his plan.
The process was like this: Ryouta would inject his energy back into the plants so that Azusa would not suspect, and then he would create two passages to block Azusa's view of him.
By injecting his own mana, Ryouta fulfilled the condition that his thoughts, which were hidden within the essence of plants, be awakened.
Azusa's precious babies!
These children were instrumental to Ryouta's plan, they helped kill Azusa's fake body and they couldn't even realize it before they were drained by Ryouta.
They had Ryouta like a string to pull a bomb, the moment they sensed their mana essence with Ryouta's energy, the bomb was already exploding, 'Even if I moved successfully, this space tunnel still has many flaws due to my thoughts, ha, I just hope I don't fade away.' This was what Ryota accepted the most. He used different energies in order to create a current that transcends time.
And all of this he copied from a nuclear test on Earth. Ryota modified this model with his thoughts and fed it in the form of a tunnel, 'I still don't know how big the level of self-healing I have, if I'm not cut into pieces or become dead meat,...that will be... good ' .
—"Tak-tak-tak"
The sound of raindrops echoed again and Ryouta's thoughts were gradually interrupted. Tak, tak, tak, the sound continued like a robotic hypnotist, 'My ability to think is proof that I am alive, yet my essence will not last long.' Within his mana essence field, Ryouta gave a look. The mana essence in front of him dried up, which was like a flame about to be extinguished.
