What does it feel like to enter a fictional world from reality
Every young person living in modern times who has a yearning for a fictional world has fantasized about this question, and Shinji is no exception.
He had several hypotheses:
For example, your eyes may go dark for a moment, and when your vision returns you will find yourself in a whole new world.
For example, various lines converge in front of your eyes and gradually evolve into various data. Your consciousness swims in the sea of data and finally finds a shining gap. You pass through the gap and finally reach a new world.
But after he actually experienced it, he found that his fantasies were all wrong.
This was a completely new feeling, neither good nor bad. Completely different from the drowsiness of traveling through a parallel world, Shinji's consciousness was very clear.
He could clearly see the blue crystal deep in his soul radiating special waves, building a channel between the earth and the moon.
He could clearly feel that his soul was being pulled away from his body by a special force, and then it was constantly changing shape, stretching, squeezing, or changing into various strange shapes that could not be accurately described in words.
This is a kind of examination and also a change in the way of existence, so that one's soul can better adapt to the unknown territory that is about to be reached.
This is more of a sublimation, at least that's what Shinji thinks.
There is no color, no sound, no taste, and all the sensations obtained through the flesh do not exist. Only the most primitive and purest soul feelings remain. This is an unprecedented experience for Shinji, who has already stepped into the third realm of magic, and it also allows him to gain more soul insights.
Unconsciously, he had a greater expectation for the legendary "fictional world of spirit particles".
I don't know how long it took, maybe a minute, or maybe an hour. In the world of the soul, Shinji lost the concept of time. He only knew that after the last adjustment, he finally regained all his senses.
The feel of the wind blowing across your cheeks, the sound of leaves and grass rustling in the wind, the unique smell and taste of grass and soil wet with dew, and the sight of the mountains and fields covered in green as far as the eye can see.
Everything is no different from the real world. No, it is even more vivid than the real world. Shinji can even clearly see the veins of leaves and grass stems, and clearly appreciate the beauty that is completely different from artificial ones.
"Is it a change brought about by the sublimation of the soul? Or is the world created by Mooncell a higher level than the real world?"
As I was looking for the answer further, I heard a familiar cheer.
"This is the new world. Mmm, it looks like a lot of fun. Yahoo~~~~~~~~~~"
Out of caution for the unknown, Shinji wanted to stop Elquet from yelling, but for some reason, he felt that it was unnecessary. It was as if there was another voice telling him that it was safe here and he didn't need to worry.
Close your eyes and let your senses wander.
A strange thing happened. The place where the perception swept appeared in the sea of consciousness in the form of a miniature projection. Although it was a bit rough compared to the picture captured by the eyes, this all-round and large-scale detection method was incomparable to the five senses. And through the projection, Shinji also came to the conclusion that there was no danger around.
"It's confirmed. It's a change in the soul. It's really a great gift."
The more he understands his own changes, the less resentful he is towards someone. There is no other way, the more you take, the softer you become.
"Woo--" It was Elquet's cry again, this time with a hint of surprise.
"What's wrong? What a fuss."
Shinji opened his eyes and saw Arquette circling around him and grabbing his hair.
"Shinji, you've grown so big all of a sudden."
"What the hell is getting bigger? That's called growing up, stupid."
Shinji casually pushed away Elquet's hand and knew that he had returned to his adult form. This was also natural. Mooncell was a spirit world, and the data read was also soul data, so the conclusion would naturally not be 12 years old.
He stretched his waist towards the sky, with his long arms and legs. It felt good not to have to look up at Elquet.
Apparently, Elquet was also envious of this change, and kept asking: "Hey, how did you do it? I want to try it, too."
"This is my special ability, which can only be used here. And I don't think you need this ability, because you are perfect right now and there is no need to change."
With golden height and golden proportion, she is the princess of both earth and moon, and is the epitome of perfection.
"real?"
"real."
"Hehe." Elquet laughed, very happily, "In fact, I have changed too, have you noticed?"
Shinji walked around Elquet and finally shook his head - even the clothes were the same ones he bought in the store before, so how could there be any changes
"Shinji is so slow, I have become something called a 'Servant', and you are my 'Master', don't you feel the connection between us?"
Shinji's eyes changed, and he immediately began to check his condition. Soon he found that there was an additional connection between him and Elquet, and three more red patterns appeared on his hand.
"I see. This is Gaia's method."
This is expected. In the world line of "Fate/EXTRA", Elquet seems to have come to the Mooncell in this way.
So, is Gaia using this method to make Elquit keep an eye on me, or to make me Elquit's suppressor, or both
No matter what, it has become an established fact that the two of them have become a community of shared destiny. She can't get rid of me, and I won't get rid of her. They support each other and explore this unknown world together.
But before we start exploring—
"Arquette, let's do some tests first."
"Test what?"
"Let's test what the difference is between here and on Earth, and what changes have taken place in us. Come, let's run together and test our speed."
"oh!!!"
Suddenly, dust flew and grass leaves fluttered.
The two people in the new world did not know that after their consciousness left, a new visitor came into the cargo hold. This person did not touch the magic of protection and warning set by Shinji, nor was he discovered by Elquet's fantasy.
He just stood not far from the two of them, silently watching the two sleeping faces leaning against each other. After a while, he gently nodded and said in an old but powerful voice:
"It seems to have worked... I never thought you would make such a choice. Here's a piece of advice for you. Don't do anything to this child if you want a different future."
After saying this, the visitor’s figure became fainter and fainter, and soon disappeared.
At the same time, the princess, who was sleeping peacefully, suddenly opened her eyes and stared at the place where the visitor disappeared.
Her eyes were still that beautiful red, but the look in them was no longer innocent and naive. Instead, there was a vast sense of detachment and indifference.
