What happened to Shuji? What is happening on the surface?
The people stationed on the orbital platform looked in horror at their mother planet beneath them. They saw that it had undergone earth-shattering changes recently. Eerie white substances were spreading across the planet's surface like a nightmare, even the thick rain clouds near the equator couldn't conceal the terrifying mutation overtaking the entire planet — a mutation that had started hundreds of years ago but only now came into their view.
The Cognitive Barrier enveloping Shuji was disintegrating. This powerful cognitive interference had once extended from the planet's surface into space, pulling even those stationed in high orbits into a "everything is normal" Dream Realm. But now, the dream was ending.
This wasn't because the "Inference Star Body" had stopped its activities — but because the "Angel" parasitizing the planet's interior was now ready to Ascend.
