"Am I...going to die?"
Although Fujimaru Ritsuka didn't feel hurt at all when she touched the incredibly large wound on her lower abdomen at first, after the sticky blood overflowed and dyed her Master's ceremonial dress completely red, she finally Still aware of the passage of his own life.
The consciousness of the brain began to blur, and his own thinking almost stopped. With the massive outflow of blood, even the most basic breathing ability gradually became unsustainable.
At this time, the brain, which needs the most oxygen and consumes the most energy, can only maintain the most basic physiological functions.
It was the heart that was aware of death before consciousness, but the organ that didn't understand what was happening could only do its best to carry out its original work.
His heart beat faster and faster, but Fujimaru Ritsuka's face became paler.
The rise in blood pressure and heart rate could only hasten her death at this point.
And more importantly than that, Fujimaru Ritsuka has lost his normal thinking ability.
"What happened? What's going to happen to me?"
She had a rough idea of what was going on just a moment ago, but now she could only repeat these meaningless questions in her mind.
Just like a phone call answered while sleepy, although it constitutes a conversation and even has logic, the person himself is completely unaware of it.
After all, just like the raw meat of animals that still trembles and squirms even after being cut off, human consciousness is not something strange and unique.
The so-called consciousness itself is nothing more than a by-product of the operation of the organ called the brain.
If someone's brain could be copied exactly, the resulting consciousness would be the same.
The so-called uniqueness of self is nothing more than human wishful thinking.
Although she retains the title of Chaldean Master and also shoulders the important mission of being the last master of mankind, Fujimaru Ritsuka is still an ordinary human being and an ordinary girl in the final analysis.
With severe blood loss, she looked at Mashu who was trying to stop the bleeding and Chaldea who was already in a mess on the other side of the image. She wanted to say something and think about something, but she couldn't even take the first step. arrive.
In the end, even the ability to "want" was lost, and he just stared blankly around him, and finally lost consciousness.
So, what is a dream?
"What's wrong with me?"
In the darkness, Fujimaru Ritsuka stared at his hands.
"What am I doing?"
I seem to be dreaming now.
This is the only situation Fujimaru Ritsuka has at the moment.
As for why he entered the dream and what happened before entering the dream, Fujimaru Ritsuka could not recall it.
Fujimaru Ritsuka only vaguely remembered that he should be conducting a strategy campaign at the singularity in London.
Just like a person won't remember when he fell asleep after waking up, or even the last thing he did before falling asleep, she had no idea how she fell into such a state.
Fujimaru Ritsuka raised his right hand and looked at the back of his hand, where there should have been proof that he was a master - the Command Seal.
However, all she could see now was only a blur of red traces. Although she knew at a glance that it should be her Command Seal, Fujimaru Ritsuka could not see the lines on it clearly.
Human beings do not dream of things they do not know.
Although she didn't know where she heard this sentence, she remembered the sentence very clearly.
It is true that Fujimaru Ritsuka did not observe every pattern of the command spell on his hand so carefully on weekdays, so it was natural that he could not reproduce it in the dream.
However, under normal circumstances, a conscious dream like hers should end the moment she realizes that it is a dream.
Although Fujimaru Ritsuka, as a magician, should be regarded as a beginner among beginners, and even due to limited talent, it is impossible to make any deep progress in magic in this life, but only knowledge is the same.
Although learning also requires talent, unlike the mechanism of modern magic that cannot operate without circuits, knowledge exists objectively.
He cannot become a true magician, but Fujimaru Ritsuka can rely on Chaldea to know most of the secrets of the magic world.
For physiological people, dreams are the self-reaction of the part of the brain that is not fully asleep during sleep. However, for magicians who are more likely to have access to extraordinary means to influence themselves, the scenes in dreams are often not the same. It's just a dream anymore.
In Chaldea, Fujimaru Ritsuka also received a warning in advance that she might be involved in the dream of the heroic spirit after signing the contract.
It is even possible to encounter an enemy in a dream and not be able to wake up again.
…………
The situation I'm in now is probably that of being involved in a dream, from which I can't wake up.
However, so far, the only ones who have actually signed a contract with her are Mash and Altria Alter. As for the other lone servants who signed a contract with her in the singularity, they should not have the ability to pass through The contract reversely affects her ability to dream.
and……
Fujimaru Ritsuka subconsciously reached out towards her chest, but the empty spot under her neck made her at a loss.
Since arriving at this singularity, her memory, along with the whole of London, has been shrouded in a thick magical fog.
It's not terrible to forget something. What's terrible is that you forget it along with the forgetting itself. You don't even know what you are missing.
And Fujimaru Ritsuka had a hunch that this would be an important clue to reveal his own sense of disobedience.
The surrounding scene gradually became clear from darkness, and the bustling streets of London on weekdays slowly emerged around Fujimaru Ritsuka.
It wasn't until passers-by passed by her that Fujimaru Ritsuka realized that her dream had become indistinguishable from reality.
Even though the mention of London gives people a gloomy atmosphere, the maritime climate of the British Isles does contribute to the fact that the country is cloudy and rainy.
But at least, in the midsummer of 2014 in the Western calendar, the sun was still shining brightly in London.
"Everyone looks over here. Have you seen the street sign here? Yes, this is Baker Street, which is the residence of the world-famous detective Sherlock Holmes written by Conan Doyle. But after all, it is fictional. Baker Street In fact, there are only buildings No. 1 to No. 85, and there is no 221-b where the detective lives.
However, due to the global influence of Sherlock Holmes, finally, in 1930, the year of Mr. Conan Doyle's death, the address of 221-b Baker Street was opened to commemorate the great detective. This is the Sherlock Holmes Memorial Museum we see in front of us. "
The tour guide leading a large number of tourists was explaining to the tourists behind him at the street corner as if he were inside a museum.
It also made Fujimaru Ritsuka realize that he was not in London after the destruction of humanity.
On the contrary, her current location is one of the busiest cities in human society.
However, compared to the large number of tourists, a figure in a suit who was hurriedly pushing away the tourists attracted Fujimaru Ritsuka's eyes inexplicably.
It was as if there was a voice in my heart telling me——————
Follow him.
