[Chapter 148]
[New Humanity Project (6)]
『Belphegor is getting out of human standards day by day.
Every time a new heart is transplanted, the body repeats degeneration and evolution, finally evolving into a better state.
(Omitted)
After the 77th heart transplant.
Belphegor’s body no longer showed any change.
As if it were said to be a form that exists at the end of the human evolutionary line.
Belphegor had grown out of the image of a ten-year-old boy.
If you think about it, isn’t < Index > also a case where growth stopped in childhood. Maybe it’s not that surprising.
However, the ability of the body was the best.
Once I cut my arm with a knife and then brought it to the amputation site.
Surprisingly, the arm reattached as a phenomenon that we couldn’t understand with our heads occurred.
It far exceeded Ain’s ability to recover.
Other than that, the reaction speed and control efficiency of mana are truly amazing.
(Omitted)
─You are out of the human realm.
When the 85th transplant was done.
He looked at Belphegor’s condition and said,
not human
I have finally created a new human race.
But the joy is short-lived.
He says, however, that they have not yet reached a level worthy of being called the new human race.
Hagi Knight Belphegor still lacked something.
(Omitted)
...Belphegor is still struggling to escape from the laboratory.
I don’t know how many researchers have already died at his hands.
Now, whenever we are about to perform surgery, we are worried that Belphegor will hurt us.
It is getting out of our hands.
(Omitted)
─I’d rather kill you! I don’t like this anymore!
These were the words that one of Belphegor’s egos suddenly jumped out and shouted.
he was raging
─If you don’t want to live that far, just grow up forever.
The situation ended when Belphegor’s alter ego took control of the body.
Thirteen people died, including researchers and players.
(Omitted)
...Pegor had been hiding his power until now.
When Belphegor attempted to escape beyond the twentieth.
He put the people around him to sleep in an instant.
Even players with high mana resistance could not respond to the phenomenon.
The lab was about to collapse.
At last, his existence almost became known to the world.
The matter was settled by Him.
On the other hand, the condition of the people affected by Belphegor’s magic was severe.
It wasn’t until a week later that people woke up one by one.
(Omitted)
...The researcher’s mind has collapsed.
I asked the conscious researcher what had happened while he was sleeping.
he said in terror.
He had nightmares all week and felt his soul being eaten away.
(Omitted)
Belphegor’s ability has been revealed.
He learned how to use the gift < Connection > without me and the researchers knowing.
Thus, through dreams, he connected himself with the image world of others.
(Omitted)
The world of dreams is his world.
He can interfere with our consciousness through dreams.
how terrifying that is
The thought that the creature I made might rather dominate me.
Now, the researcher and I decided to pay more attention to Belphegor than before.
(Omitted)
Belphegor’s abilities are too powerful.
Just by sleeping around him, you are drawn into the world of imagination.
Luckily now, if someone wakes me up in reality, I can get out of the world of imagination.
However, if his power becomes even stronger than it is now.
No, if he is truly reborn as a new human being.
We will become slaves to the dreams he creates.
(Omitted)
Me and the researchers had a meeting.
Result: We decided to put Belphegor in an eternal sleep, except for surgery.
He decided to take action to prevent him from coming out of his dream.
He too agreed.
(Omitted)
We put the devil to sleep.
Let no one wake him up.
─ From Dr. Deus’s research journal]
☆
Shit...
Dr. Deus has become a crippled person.
Someone had installed something in his psychological base.
For example, it activates the moment someone tries to disturb his psychology and causes his mind to collapse.
Who are you doing?
Eun-ha nervously let go of her hand holding Dr. Deus.
It was unexpected who would take this action against Dr. Deus.
Either he is behind what he is trying to find.
Or someone related to the background.
He is a very prudent person.
If it were Deus, he would be in a high position on that side, but seeing that he doesn’t hesitate to throw it away like this...
It feels like fighting an abyss where the bottom is unknown.
snapped my fingers.
The fire chicken reacted and created a spark, and the galaxy saw through the dim darkness, relying on the flame floating in the air.
Go down the stairs.
...just like a sleeping room.
Except for the gigantic machinery all over the place.
It’s like a sleeping room.
The galaxy thought so and moved toward the center.
What he eventually discovered was—
─.......
Papa...
Human organs.
Huge glass tubes are stretched out in rows.
Inside the liquid-filled glass tube were human organs.
[10% Mana Concentration Rate Pancreas (12 years old)]
[7% Mana Recovery Rate Captain (14 years old)]
A short explanatory note attached to the glass tube. In addition, a picture and information of the original owner of the organ were written on the glass tube.
Also-. It sounded like
a thump-thump
drum.
No, it was a familiar sound.
Eunha moved along the path where the sound was heard.
There was also a glass tube.
And in it-.
[The heart of a 13-year-old boy]
[The heart of a 12-year-old girl]
What kind of strategy did you use?
My heart was beating in unison.
He was speechless at the sight of his heart immersed in liquid beating as if it were alive.
Crazy bastards...
that’s what came out of me.
out of bounds
Not only is it damaging the dignity of human beings, but they are making fun of their deaths.
What’s more speculative than this is—.
──
A boy with a split stomach.
The boy, who had tubes inserted through his mouth and nose, was alive in a glass coffin.
Although the soul is already dead.
The heart is beating.
Blood circulates through the body.
So it looks alive.
Pippi....
after the boy.
There were people in the place where the glass tubes that were huge enough to connect the floor and ceiling were lined up.
didn’t make it all
The monitors installed here and there clearly showed what kinds of experiments the people in the glass tubes were subjected to.
everyone is dead
It looks alive.
The reality is dead.
It is a living invoice.
The galaxy checked their condition and frowned.
Eventually he reached the end of the laboratory.
─I found it.
The case looks exceptionally sturdy than other glass tube cases.
Inside the glass tube filled with pale green liquid was a ten-year-old boy.
Bubblegum
Belphegor.
A mine that will be called Kuma in the future.
The boy had his eyes closed.
it is sleeping
...Not like the Belphegor I know.
The galaxy checked Belphegor’s condition.
There was a slightly different part from the Belphegor he remembered.
Before returning, Belphegor had an appearance that reminded him of a devil at least a little.
It’s also not finished yet.
It is not yet complete.
Belphegor’s condition, if one were to insist on it, could be said to be a half-demon in the middle between a human and a demon.
Anyway-.
-You have to kill me at this time.
Before he becomes a complete demon.
The galaxy pulled out the winter that bloomed coldly and applied mana to the blade.
The sword body was stained black.
It was intended to kill him at once while he was asleep. —To
kill a child in a
Vilent Venom glass coffin.
Eunha swung her sword with all her might.
The window
glass tube is broken.
The contents inside
the shooter spilled out.
The blade,
dyed black, cuts through the water and reaches the falling boy.
The blade now touches the child’s body—.
—-!!
Just before the blade touches the child’s body.
very fleeting
He felt that moment seemed like a very long time.
The moment when a child wakes up and opens his or her eyes.
...Why am I so unlucky Damn it.
The blade cut right in front of me.
The galaxy cursed its own misfortune.
The ruler of the nightmare has awakened.
