"Are you ready?" Polyusica looked seriously at Raphael who was sitting cross-legged in the magic circle.
After getting Raphael's nod, Polyusica gave him another warning and confirmed with him again:"This illusion magic is made up of the thing you fear most in your heart. You must hold on. If you can't hold on, you will be lost in the illusion. Are you really sure?"
"I'm sure. I don't want to become a high and mighty god who regards all living beings as ants! I just want to live happily every day with my friends, and I just want to have a sweet future with her!"
Raphael answered Polyusica firmly. Polyusica nodded, muttered something, and waved his hands continuously. One after another, magic power went to the magic circle.
With the stimulation of Polyusica's magic power, the seven nodes of the magic circle began to light up one by one. When the seventh node lit up, Raphael fell into darkness.
...
" Doctor, this patient has no family members. The only thing we know is that he has a mother, but his mother has settled abroad and does not acknowledge the existence of this patient."
A young voice sounded, and Raphael instantly regained consciousness from the darkness.
Patient? What's going on? Didn't I enter the magic circle to train my mind in the Fairy Tail world? Is this an illusion? But...
Raphael had a lot of questions in his mind. He wanted to sit up and open his eyes, but was surprised to find that he couldn't move his whole body, even his eyes couldn't be opened, and he could only hear the voices of the people next to him.
In this case, let me see what I fear most in my heart! Anyway, I just have to remember that this is an illusion.
Raphael gave up struggling and chose to lie down. He decided that as long as he remembered that this was an illusion, he would not get lost.
"Forget it, just treat him as dead. You find someone to take him away tonight. I will tamper with his information now. This body can make me a lot of money!"
A voice slightly older than the younger one just now sounded. He seemed to be doing something to Raphael's body.
"No one wants him anyway, and now he has fallen from the elevator and turned into a vegetable, so let's use his body as the final contribution!"
The old voice became softer and softer. If it wasn't close to Raphael, the last sentence might not have been heard clearly.
Make a contribution? It won't be a human experiment, right? Or stealing organs? And this happened after I fell from the elevator?
Raphael felt something was wrong. Logically speaking, how could the magic circle in the magic world lead to the situation in the technological world? He began to doubt.
Raphael gradually began to be affected by the illusion. He tried again to open his eyes and raise his hands, but to no avail.
Time soon came to night. Raphael could hear the footsteps of several people. He could feel that they put him in a bag and threw him into the car. Raphael, who only had hearing and feeling, didn't know the time, but he knew that the car had been driving for a long, long time.
The car finally stopped, and Raphael felt that he was carried down again. He opened the bag and put it on an iron table. He began to be a little afraid of what would happen next.
...
Polyusica outside the magic circle looked worriedly at Raphael in the magic circle. Raphael's expression became very painful from the beginning. Polyusica wanted to stop several times, but she thought of Raphael. What Phil just said, he still endured it.
...
No! Raphael screamed in his heart, because he felt a cold and sharp knife slowly cutting his skin, then slowly taking out organs from his body, and then using the knife to scrape open his brain and dig out his brain.
During this process, he kept trying to struggle to get up, but only his consciousness was awake, and he couldn't move his body at all! Until the moment his brain was dug out, he finally felt that he had lost contact with his body.
But the strange thing is that this person injected something into his brain, then inserted something into his brain, and then put it into a jar full of liquid.
Raphael was wondering, and then he heard the man laughing:"Hahaha, I finally found a suitable experimental subject. It's rare that he can still have such intense brain waves after falling down and becoming a vegetable. It's worth it that I spent money to bribe a few temporary workers to pretend to be doctors and steal him out. Next, let's start the experiment of the brain in the tank! Once this experiment is successful, I will definitely go down in history!"
Brain in a tank?! Raphael has heard of this, but isn't this a paradox? Before Raphael could think too much, a burst of electricity passed through his brain, and the originally chaotic and dark world in Raphael's consciousness suddenly began to light up.
At this moment, a flash of lightning suddenly flashed across, splitting the light that was slowly emerging in Raphael's mind, and also splitting the illusion. Raphael instantly fell into darkness and coma again.
Soon, Raphael woke up slowly again. He felt that he was lying on the bed. He sat up quickly, opened his eyes, and found himself in a ward. There was a patient next to him who was frightened by him and twitched.
I...was it an illusion just now? No, it's an illusion now too? Or am I already in the world created by the brain in the vat?
At this time, Raphael could no longer tell whether it was an illusion or an illusion within the illusion of the brain in the vat. He felt very confused now.
"Are you awake? Doctor Ma! The patient in bed 44 is awake!"A young voice that he had heard before sounded in front of him. Raphael looked up and found that he looked about 50% similar to Natsu.
"Natsu?!"Raphael cried out in surprise.
The young doctor looked at Raphael with a puzzled look on his face:"Who is Na?" Your family? Don't get up so quickly, wait for Dr. Ma to come over and check on you!"
"What's wrong with me? What's going on?"Raphael asked him quickly
"You fell from the elevator and have been in a coma for a week. You just woke up now. But the miracle is that you only suffered some minor injuries all over your body, but your head may have been hit more seriously, and you have a concussion."
The doctor who looked a bit like Natsu said to Raphael. Yes, in Raphael's eyes, they are just a bit similar now, not as similar as before.
Doctor Ma came soon and asked Raphael about the situation. During the process of answering, Raphael always felt that he was very similar to an elder he knew, but he couldn't remember his name.
After various examinations, Raphael was discharged from the hospital soon, and because it was the fault of the company and the workers who repaired the elevator, his medical expenses were all paid.
Raphael soon returned to the company to continue working. It is worth mentioning that because he was caused by a manager's overtime order, this incident happened, so the manager was fired on the day of his accident. Now he has returned to replace the manager's position.
Raphael worked very hard and won several orders worth hundreds of millions for the company. He was soon promoted to vice president. Once he went to the president's home, he met the president's daughter at first sight. He fell in love with her because he felt that he must have known her in his previous life.
Soon, Raphael married the president's daughter and took over the listed company. He also had two lovely babies and his life was extremely happy.
But Raphael always felt that all this was a little unrealistic, and even had a sense of falsehood. He felt as if he had forgotten something, but he just couldn't remember it. Because of this, he soon fell ill.
He was extremely bored when he was sick and resting at home. The children and his wife went to work or school, and he was the only one left at home who didn't know what to do. He could only run to the study to see if he could find a book to kill time.
When passing by the child's room, he saw that the tablet she had placed on the table was not turned off, and there was anime on it. Strangely enough, since he came out of the hospital, he no longer liked to watch anime, and even deleted all the video software. Now when he sees the familiar anime again, he can't help but sigh.
"This child always forgets to turn off the tablet and always asks his father to help him finish the work. He won't help next time! Really..."Raphael thought to himself as he consciously prepared to pick up the tablet and turn it off, but suddenly he was stunned.
What was on the tablet was the first episode of the Fairy Tail anime, the first encounter between Lucy and Natsu.
I remembered! Raphael finally remembered what he had forgotten. He had actually forgotten all the friends he had been with for so long!
Raphael, who remembered everything, saw the lightning again, but the lightning no longer struck him, but stopped in front of him, releasing light at him, and he instantly felt his bloodthirsty The feeling has weakened a lot.
It turns out that this lightning is like a referee. When he sees him sinking, he will judge the failure and give a slight punishment and then continue to the next illusion. If he succeeds, he will be rewarded and asked whether to proceed to the next illusion.
Just when Raphael was about to continue the mental training in the illusion, a violent pulling force instantly pulled him out, and Raphael woke up from the magic circle.
Raphael, who had just woken up, looked up and saw the smiling girl opposite him. He instantly understood why he fell in love with the CEO's daughter at first sight in the illusion.
Because the CEO's daughter in the fantasy world looks like Mirajane!
