At the same time, since this was his first time watching "Kara no Kyoukai", he said with a little doubt:

"Is this girl the protagonist of this film? What happened to her now?"

Wilhelm responded to the King’s question:

"The protagonist of Kara no Kyoukai is this girl named Ryougi Shiki. In the previous plot, she seemed to have been attacked by something and suffered serious injuries. She is now recovering in the hospital."

"I see. In that case, this movie shouldn't have too many battle elements, right?"

"That's not entirely true. After all, the first few games of Kara no Kyoukai almost all contain some combat elements, but the overall rhythm is definitely not as brisk as Fate Zero."

"Um."

His Majesty Hubbard nodded, obviously looking forward to this film which he was seeing on television for the first time.

The orc prophet on the side was watching the pictures on TV with a slightly frowned brow. The dark and deep void space where Ryougi Shiki was always gave him a strong sense of déjà vu.

Imperial Magic Academy, Alchemy Tower Hall.

The magicians gathered here as soon as they finished watching the movie in the square, apparently having heard from Scar that a new movie was being broadcast on TV.

Right now, students and lecturers from various disciplines are gathered here, watching the content on TV intently.

"Two years ago, Ryougi Shiki was seriously injured. Look, many parts of her body are almost rotten, as if she was torn apart by some ferocious beast!"

"At the end of the murder investigation, there was a roar of a demon beast. So it seems that the reason why Kuroto Miki was able to survive from Ryougi Shiki was because she was attacked by a demon beast?"

"If that's the case, it's a pity that Kuroto Mikiya still dares to approach Ryougi Shiki. Doesn't he fear death at all?"

"Impossible. When he was hunted by Ryougi Shiki two years ago, the fear on Kuroto Mikiya's face was genuine. He is just an ordinary person. How could he not be afraid of death?"

"If that's the case, his behavior is too weird. It's as if he was manipulated and forced to like Ryougi Shiki and be willing to do everything for her."

"Yes, and the most important question is, why did Ryougi Shiki not want to kill Kurogiri Mikiya after she woke up again? What happened in the meantime?"

“This episode should give the answer.”

The magicians' communication was so loud that in the absence of sufficient information support, even the magicians could not figure out what the plot was trying to express. At this moment, they all concentrated their attention and did not want to miss any details in the plot.

At the top of the Alchemy Tower, the great sages who were originally at the top of the Mage Tower undoubtedly quickly moved to another location, and directly asked Scar for a TV prototype to start watching.

At this time, they ignored the many struggling students of magic alchemy and watched the content of the film and talked about it.

"It's understandable that Ryougi Shiki was injured, but why did the movie keep showing some strange images while she was in a coma? What the hell is that pitch-black area? Stream of consciousness?"

Dean Hohenheim was also slightly confused about what Sage Wharton said:

"I don't quite understand it, and I'm more concerned about Ryougi Ori's situation. Apart from the fact that he was mentioned in the plot before the murder investigation, he didn't appear in the other episodes. Could it be that he fell into a deep sleep?"

Similarly, the other great sages were also confused. The plot of "Kara no Kyoukai" is much more vague than that of "Fate Zero".

For this reason, Sage Rosa, who was the only one present who participated in the filming of the film, said slowly:

"That dark place, according to Director Doolin, seems to be the lake that Ryougi Shiki saw when she was unconscious. Ryougi Shiki is now on the brink of life and death. Her body is still alive, but her consciousness has experienced the concept of death countless times. This may be the reason why she later awakened the Mystic Eyes of Death Perception."

"I see."

After hearing Sage Rosa's explanation, many great sages nodded and fell into deep thought.

Then, some great sage suddenly said:

"Hey, Rosa, did you just spoil the plot again?"

“Ah, this…???”

Unexpectedly, her casual explanation was mistaken for a spoiler, and Sage Rosa immediately revealed an expression of "I am innocent".

But unfortunately, no matter how she explained, the other great sages had already determined that she had spoiled the plot, and they immediately showed dissatisfaction on their faces, which made the slightly speechless Sage Rosa immediately show an aggrieved expression.

Chapter 173 Episode 4: Galan’s Cave (Part 3)

Chapter 173

As the plot progressed bit by bit, to the audience's expectation, Ryougi Shiki, who had been lying in the hospital bed, finally woke up.

In two years, the girl's short hair turned into long black hair, and her dark pupils were filled with confusion and bewilderment. After sleeping for such a long time, her body was so stiff that she even had difficulty raising her arms.

When she opened her eyes, next to her was a bouquet of flowers that Kurodori Kan'ya had placed when he came to visit her, as well as a note he used to record his feelings.

Seeing the familiar yet unfamiliar name on the note, Ryougi Shiki didn't have time to think, and the scene reflected in her eyes made her shudder.

At this moment, as the film screen switched to Ryougi Shiki's perspective, everyone saw the screen filled with dense lines. All objects were covered by the line of death, as if cracks had appeared.

"This is… "

Ryougi Shiki gently touched the cracks covering the flowers, and then, a scene that she could not believe happened.

All the petals withered quickly as if they were dead, reaching the end of their 'life' at an unimaginable speed.

Ryougi Shiki herself passed out due to the sudden influx of incomprehensible knowledge.

"… "

When Ryougi Shiki woke up again, the doctor who came to visit her appeared in front of her.

However, both the doctor's words and the nurse's words made her feel an indescribable sense of strangeness and dislocation.

At the same time, the scenes reflected in his eyes became more and more chaotic. People's bodies turned into pieces of meat, the earth began to crack, the sky outside was blood red, and the whole world seemed to be shrouded in "death".

Faced with this scene that was enough to drive a normal person crazy, Ryougi Shiki was stunned for a long time, slowly raised her hands, and before the doctors and nurses had time to react, she pressed her eyeballs with all her might.

"Click..."

The world before my eyes returned to nothingness once again.

The scenes in the film surprised the audience. After all, this was the first time that "Kara no Kyoukai" described the side effects of the Mystic Death Perception Eyes.

The scene before their eyes made the audience realize that this kind of magic eye that can see through the line of death and bring death instantly, in addition to giving people powerful strength, can also make the world in a person's eyes become extremely terrifying, and even form an astonishing mental oppression.

"As expected, everything has its pros and cons. The Mystic Eyes of Death may seem powerful, but in fact, it is definitely not something that ordinary people can control."

"Ryougi Shiki actually wanted to blind herself. This is too cruel."

"Will your eyes really not break like this?"

"The eyes are actually quite strong. Besides, Ryougi Shiki just woke up after being in a coma for two years. His hands probably don't have much strength."

"This is really uncomfortable. Every time I look at something, I will fast forward to the scene of death. Looking at other people is like looking at a lump of meat..."

"… "

The audience was talking about it one after another, and everyone was shocked by the side effects of the Mystic Eyes of Death Perception.

His Majesty Hubbard was also surprised by the scenes in the film, but since he had not watched the first three episodes of "The World of Kara", his understanding of the Mystic Eyes of Death Perception was not in-depth, so he asked in confusion:

"Has something happened to this girl's eyes? She seems to be able to see things that normal people can't."

"Um."

Wilhelm nodded and explained:

"The protagonist of the film, Ryougi Shiki, seems to have awakened a magical eye that can see through the thread of death. At the same time, if you use a knife or some other sharp weapon to cut the thread of death, you can quickly end the life of any object."

"Any object?"

"Yes. Whether it's a human, a spirit, or even an ordinary object, as long as you can see through the thread of death and understand the concept of death, you can end the life of the target. It's a very simple and useful ability."

"I see. This is really an exaggerated power."

His Majesty Hubbard nodded. Now that his confusion had been resolved, he was more expectant and wanted to know what would happen next.

The orc prophet on the side was watching the pictures on TV intently. Although "Kara no Kyoukai" has not shown him anything shocking yet, he still will not let his guard down.

He always believed that behind these seemingly entertaining videos, there must be some truth about the human empire. As an orc prophet, he would never miss any clues!

Regarding Ryougi Shiki's behavior of destroying her own eyes, the students of the Imperial Magic Academy reacted similarly to the people in the TV tavern, but at the same time, the magicians could actually empathize more with Ryougi Shiki's choice.

"I've had this feeling before. When I first awakened my magical talent, the whole world suddenly changed color in front of me. The originally ordinary world suddenly became red and purple. I didn't even dare to open my eyes in the first few days."

"Me too, me too. If the old wizard in the village hadn't known the situation and came to help me calm down immediately, I would have wanted to die."

"Power often comes with a burden. Magicians who seem noble and powerful actually experience huge changes in their cognition every time they make a breakthrough. Once they are unable to adjust, they will either suffer a mental breakdown or become depressed. Some even fall directly into the path of evil. It is difficult to have a good outcome."

"This further proves the necessity of the existence of the Mage Tower today. If it weren't for the system established by the Imperial Magic Academy and the Mage Tower, it would be difficult for magicians to help each other like they do now, let alone help magicians who have just awakened their talents to overcome difficulties. In the Age of Enlightenment, the probability of a talented magician successfully awakening his talent was less than 50%!"

"Yes, yes. Nowadays, the premature death rate of magicians who awaken their magic talent in the empire is less than one percent. Whenever someone in the empire awakens his magic talent, senior magicians from the academy branch in nearby towns will rush over to provide him with psychological and physical counseling. Unless he lives in deep mountains and forests, every magician will receive meticulous care from the Imperial Magic Academy from the day he is born."

"This is the best time for us magicians!"

"… "

Amidst all the various discussions, the magicians' discussions came one after another.

This is understandable, as advanced systems often have impacts in all aspects.

The Mage's Tower and the Imperial Magic Academy built on the basis of the Mage's Tower are the most advanced systems in the entire empire, and even in the world. Magicians naturally feel the superiority brought by the institutional advantages everywhere.

On weekdays, most mages would occasionally complain about some inhumane aspects, but in general, every imperial magician would deeply praise the mage system established by the Mage Tower, and be grateful to the predecessors who used their wisdom and blood to fight for the new present.

Of course, rather than lamenting these well-known things, many magicians are currently more concerned about the next plot of "Kara no Kyoukai" and want to know how Ryougi Shiki can get through this difficult situation.

Chapter 174 Episode 4: Galan’s Cave (IV)

Chapter 174

The content in the movie continues to be shown.

"Have you heard about the patient in the single room on the third floor? I can't believe it. She actually woke up."

"Yes, and I didn't expect that she actually wanted to blind her own eyes. When the doctor wasn't paying attention, she pressed her eyeballs with her palms from her eyelids. It was really scary."

"Wait, wasn't that girl in a coma for two years? Logically, her body should be out of control."

"That's true, but isn't her family very wealthy? We have been taking good care of her since she was hospitalized, and her joints have never been stiff."

"Oh, I never expected that the girl had compressed her eyeballs to the point where she almost developed glaucoma. Now she can't see at all. It is said that she even asked to have her eyes covered with bandages."

"From darkness to darkness, that doesn't sound normal."

"More than just a little. The girl has other problems. It seems she has aphasia. She can't talk to others normally. The doctor even asked a speech therapist he knew to come and see her. Who said our hospital doesn't have an expert in this area?"

"Because Dr. Araya resigned last month, but - in this case, the patient should not be accepting visitors for the time being, right?"

"Really? In that case, the boy is really pitiful."

"Ah, you mean the loyal little brother? He's still here. Such sincerity is rare these days."

"Yes, he has been the only one who has been taking care of that patient for the past two years. I always feel that the miracle of her waking up from her coma is partly due to that boy..."

"I like him too. It would be great if I had a loyal and loving man pursuing me."

"… "

The nurses' conversation ended here. As medical workers, they would not say any more about this.

At the same time as the nurses were talking, a red-haired woman named Aozaki Touko walked into the hospital step by step and came to Ryougi Shiki's ward.

In the video, Aozaki Touko quickly starts communicating with Ryougi Shiki.

Aozaki Touko seems to be a psychologist sent by the hospital to provide psychological counseling to Ryougi Shiki. Her attitude is very lively, or too lively, which makes Ryougi Shiki very impatient.

But Aozaki Touko is not an ordinary person after all. As a senior magician, she pointed out Ryougi Shiki's problems very straightforwardly.

"You've lost something important. Now it's like there's a hole in your heart that can't be filled by magic. You have to find a way to fill it yourself."

"The hole in your heart?"

"Yes, you should have noticed it a long time ago, right? You are already alone."

After saying this, Aozaki Touko left the scene, leaving Ryougi Shiki lying on the hospital bed, at a loss.

After watching this plot, one of the audience's confusions was resolved.
