You don't even need to go to the hospital for treatment. You can recover with a little rest. Although the injuries cannot be recovered, you can still live a normal life.
However, Emiya Shirou still had no bad memory of him suddenly disappearing in front of him.
Even if he recalled it, Shirou Emiya would not have any memory of him, because that delinquent no longer existed in this world.
Just like the white-collar worker that Shirou Emiya followed on the first street, all his memories about them disappeared and were automatically filled in.
Almost without any gaps, these lost memories were filled.
Chapter 218: The Red Boundary That Stops the World
After dealing with those bad guys, Shirou Emiya didn't find anything strange.
That bad disappearance is different from Jack the Ripper's [Information Erasure], which directly makes your memory disappear.
You remember fighting someone, but you don't know how the fight went, nor do you remember what the person you fought looked like.
However, you will have the impression that you have fought with her. [Erasure of Information] simply erases the information about her abilities, real name, and appearance recorded by witnesses and opponents. It is equivalent to digging out this part of your memory, making you have no memory of this part at all.
Moreover, this ability can be recorded by scientific products such as cameras, but people's memory will disappear after watching it again.
The disappearance of that bad boy was different. Compared with the Ripper's [Erasure of Information], this disappearance was more advanced.
It does not mean digging out the memories about yourself from your memory, but making them fade away. It may even cause the memories of people who have an impression of him to fill in the gaps autonomously, creating a certain logical consistency.
Even if you make a record of this incident, your record will disappear with his disappearance.
What disappears is not just the body, but everything related to him will also disappear.
No matter how much effort you have made to observe him, in the end it will all disappear. Even if you use secret codes or passwords, they will all turn into nothingness.
He doesn't simply want you to lose such a person from your memory.
Instead, let your memory reconstruct new memories in a relatively logical and smooth form.
Even if you recall, you will not have the memory of having a conversation with someone at that time.
It doesn't just leave it empty, it automatically fixes it.
Even if 80% of your memory is about that person, it will not cause confusion in your memory; you will just lose the influence that person had on you.
Just like being swallowed by a white whale in the alternate world of Re:Zero , the existence disappeared from this world.
However, in this world, a person’s existence is not completely wiped out the moment they are swallowed like a white whale. Instead, they disappear with the passage of time, and their sense of existence will continue to decrease until their sense of existence is completely lost, and they will be forgotten by everyone.
No matter how good one's memory is, there is no way to remember these people whose presence is constantly disappearing.
Shirou Emiya's ability to observe is indeed amazing. He really noticed those people who were ignored and had a weak presence on the streets.
Because the existence of those people has not disappeared, it is just very low, so low that people are not aware of their existence. They can be observed and affected by physics.
But they will soon fade into memory.
Just like Shirou Emiya now, he had previously concentrated his mind so much that he could remember those people with low sense of existence, and even tracked such a person with extremely weak sense of existence.
But there is only one result.
That is, Shirou Emiya has forgotten all of this, forgotten it completely. It's not that Shirou Emiya can't recall things, but that he has forgotten the appearance of these people in his memory.
In Shirou Emiya's memory, these people have never appeared.
If Shirou Emiya was just an ordinary person, if Shirou Emiya had always lived in this world, then he would not be able to notice the abnormality at all.
It is precisely because Shirou Emiya is not from this world that he feels strange about what is happening in this city.
It is precisely because Shirou Emiya is not an ordinary person, not only because he possesses special powers, but also because he has seen many strange things, that he begins to question his own memory.
Most people don’t question their own memories, nor do they believe that people can suddenly disappear.
It is precisely because he has experienced those extremely fantastic things that he believes in such strange things that have no scientific basis.
Even if he lost his memory, when Shirou Emiya walked on the street again, he would still discover the existence of those people who were ignored by others.
For some reason, some existence, for some purpose, there are many people in this city who have a weak sense of existence.
That's why Emiya Shirou can so easily observe those people with a weak sense of presence.
However, history will repeat itself over and over again, but it will not simply repeat itself.
"Aren't they human?"
Shirou Emiya stood there blankly, feeling somewhat unbelievable and panicked about his own judgment just now.
She also thought about analyzing the human body to see if it could help her enhance her magic to a higher level, but she failed to do so.
His own strengthening magic has always remained at the stage of strengthening objects and is unable to strengthen the human body.
At that time, the projection magic used by Shirou Emiya could only project ordinary objects, and many of the things in the warehouse of the Emiya house were the things he practiced projection.
For example, pots and pans, and of course, Shirou Emiya had also thought about whether projection magic could be used to project living things, such as trying to project birds flying in the sky.
Of course, the end result is that it can't be done.
And now, Emiya Shirou discovered that he was actually able to project the image of the person in front of him whose presence was extremely weak.
But Shirou Emiya is not able to project living creatures.
Then the conclusion is obvious.
Those people who live in cities and have almost no sense of existence are not human beings, and it can even be said that they are not even living creatures.
It is just a thing, or a manifestation of some power, but it is not a human being.
Shirou Emiya was extremely shocked and even a little horrified at the conclusion he came to in his mind.
Because, in this city, there are quite a few such people. Although they do not account for the majority of the entire city, their number is definitely not small.
Shirou Emiya saw more than ten of them on the road alone.
Of course, Shirou Emiya didn't remember how many streets he had been through before, after all, he had forgotten them all.
However, when he saw these people with weak existences, Shirou Emiya would judge what the strange feeling he had felt before was, and then forget it.
Seeing again makes him remember again, and forgetting again after leaving. Shirou Emiya is in this constant cycle and discovers the fact that those people with weak sense of existence are not human.
“Ding-dang! Ding-dang!”
The sound of bells ringing again and again came from behind Emiya Shirou.
Looking back, it was an extremely ordinary school. Before he knew it, Shirou Emiya had arrived at a school.
Apart from the ringing of the bell, there seemed to be no problems around.
"Trace on"
Shirou Emiya did not hesitate at all. The moment the sense of crisis crept up his back, a sword with a chain appeared in his hand. On such a street, the armor instantly covered it.
Before Emiya Shirou could realize where the sense of crisis came from, the entire world was instantly engulfed in flames.
Everything in the world seems to be forbidden.
Those passers-by also stopped at the moment of moving forward, unable to move.
In this world, Shirou Emiya was covered in armor, standing at the school gate, just like those passers-by, unable to move or think, as if he was frozen by Esdeath's ice, losing the ability to move, perceive and think.
Chapter 219: The Man Behind Misaki City
At the top of the tallest building in the entire Misaki City, there is a closed and dim space.
The space was quite large, but there was no furniture or decorations around, it was completely empty.
In the center of this space, there is a large courtyard-style bonsai, which is made up of toy partitions and models.
If someone who is familiar with Misaki City sees this bonsai, he will be surprised, because the entire Misaki City is accurately simulated inside this bonsai.
Bonsai does not just construct a map of Misaki City, but also provides real-time feedback on what is happening in Misaki City.
Such a detection device that can provide real-time feedback can be said to be a powerful weapon on the battlefield.
In this huge space, in addition to the bonsai placed in the middle to detect Misaki City, there are also things that make people feel chilling.
Dolls.
There are dolls of all sizes, wearing all kinds of clothes, with round eyes, some are tattered, and some are intact.
Such a puppet leaned against the surrounding walls, completely surrounding the space.
The large courtyard-style bonsai in the center emits a faint blue light.
The light blue light shone on the faces of the dolls, and the whole space revealed an indescribable weirdness and horror.
I'm afraid that ordinary people would fall to the ground as if they had died suddenly when they saw these dolls, and would not be able to get up again.
And in such a place, a voice full of elegance yet extremely evil was heard.
"Ah, my dear Marian, have you decided where you are going to hunt humans?"
Along with this voice, a tall man slowly appeared in front of the bonsai.
He was a man wearing a pure white suit with a long pure white cloth floating around him. He had a handsome appearance, like a nobleman from the upper class.
However, this man was floating in the air, carrying a long cloth that was also floating around him, and came to the front of the courtyard bonsai.
The man lowered his eyes and looked at a doll-like figure floating in front of the bonsai.
His eyes couldn't help revealing doting, as if this doll was his own lover.
The doll shyly snuggled into the man's arms and rubbed his chest happily.
"Owner."
The doll's mouth didn't move, but an extremely ethereal sound came from it.
If you just go by the voice, you would think that this is an extremely beautiful girl.
"Why, my dear Marian?"
The man touched her lovingly.
"I found an interesting human being."
The doll floated out of the man's arms, flew back to the top of the bonsai, and pointed in one direction.
The man looked in the direction of the doll's finger.
In this large courtyard bonsai, in a model simulating the panoramic view of Misaki City, there is a red-haired model that is constantly interacting with the mannequins burning with flames.
Looking at this scene, the man frowned.
"How could a human being discover the torch?"
"Torch" is a synonym for those people with low presence that Shirou Emiya encountered before, and is a substitute for people who do not exist in the world.
In other words, those people with a low sense of existence are already dead.
They had already been deprived of the world's original power, the "power of existence", by existences like this man.
Humans whose [Power of Existence] has been taken away are already dead, and there is no possibility of revival at all.
But in real life, if a person disappears suddenly, it will cause different degrees of distortion.
Those beings who seize the [Power of Existence] will leave behind a "Torch" as a substitute in order to alleviate the distortions in reality.
But these "torches" will eventually fade from people's memory.
"Master, isn't it interesting that a human being can actually keep track of these torches that are about to disappear."
It is not surprising that humans can notice the torch.
After all, the [Torch] only has a weak sense of existence, and they still have the [Power of Existence] in their bodies, so they can be seen by people and interact with people.
It’s just that after the interaction, those who have been interacted with will quickly forget it.
Anyone with a little more attention span can spot these "torches" that have been overlooked.
This is not a strange thing.
There is only one strange thing.
The man's tightly furrowed brows slowly relaxed, his expression becoming intoxicated, and he answered her in a soft voice while stroking the doll in front of him obsessively.
