An associate professor in life engineering travels to a medieval European fantasy world. Using modern biochemistry, he discovers that viruses, bacteria, and parasites extinct in human history are a...
"The doctor repeatedly questioned the boy about every detail, hoping to find evidence that he was lying. However, the doctor eventually gave up."
"Everything the boy said about his past life was reasonable and logical, and it didn't seem like a lie he had deliberately fabricated."
"Besides, the doctor doesn't believe that a child that young could make up such an ingenious story."
"Therefore, there may only be one answer—what the boy said is very likely true."
"In his medical notes, the doctor began to deduce that this symptom, which you just mentioned, Todd, was likely related to the soul."
"The soul may very well possess memories, which coexist with the soul in some form."
"Most people can only briefly come into contact with a small amount of soul memories in their daily lives, and experience that unstable sense of déjà vu; but some talented and powerful individuals can read the soul memories of their past lives, or even their previous lives, and narrate them completely... These people are simply like lucky ones chosen by God."
Upon hearing this, Todd seemed to be deep in thought: "The lucky chosen one by God... Sutherland, are you saying that déjà vu, soul memories, and the War of the Chosen Ones are related?"
Sutherland: "Let me finish this story. After completing his medical notes, the doctor sent them to the Great Library. He hoped to spark a discussion among scholars about consciousness, the soul, and the world. However, to his surprise, instead of praise and reward, he received an order of exile."
Todd: "Exile?"
Sutherland: "The doctor's research has completely shaken the foundations of Taro's monotheism. If it were made public, it would inevitably cause public panic. Therefore, his disappearance became the only possibility. Fortunately, the doctor was very cautious and did not reveal the boy's identity in his notes..."
Todd frowned and looked at Sutherland: "What you just said about soul memories is just a story, isn't it?"
Sutherland smiled and shook his head: "Stories? No, no, there are two living examples right in front of us."
Todd: "An example?"
Sutherland pointed at Todd: "You can remember every detail of your past life, and even use that knowledge to change everything here. Isn't that evidence of the existence of soul memories?"
Todd was taken aback: "You just said... there were two examples?"
Sutherland pointed to himself: "Yes, the boy in that story who could speak of his past life was me..."
