Bab 933: An Unacceptable Truth

Benjamin returned to the space of consciousness.

A pitch black world with blue light. It seemed that the place here had not undergone much change, but as before, all contact was cut when he tried to communicate with the three runes that had been merged into one. The entire space of consciousness no longer resonated with him, as though this place did not belong to him at all.

Beams of white light appeared around him; wherefrom, he did not know. They turned into small and narrow lattices, trapping him inside.

"...What's going on?"

Benjamin was startled and confused.

He had just detached himself from the illusion, with a deep, lingering fear still in his heart. Being in that state, like a walking corpse, horrified him. When he had regained consciousness, confusion followed after that. What had just happened? Did the System crash? Why had he suddenly returned to the modern world, and moreover, why was he unable to recall anything, like a fool?
