So, let's shift our perspective back to before Illa's arrival, after the "Death Trigger" unfolded, and Illa made the request to Raphael to "Let's talk"... Raphael has arrived in "Illa's World".
In fact, Inra's death trigger is not such a weak thing.
"I'm not trapped, nor am I in an illusion... right?"
Raphael asked this question as he dissipated the sword in his hand into particles of light, watching the light points gradually rise and disappear in front of Yinra and him... Yinra, wearing clothes belonging to [this world], looked unusually handsome.
He's probably a hypocrite, no... a scoundrel... no, not quite.
If I had to use an accurate adjective, it would probably be something like "human elites".
"Yes, you are much more perceptive than I thought."
As Yinla said this, he looked at his suit and tie, shook his head helplessly, casually loosened his tie, and tossed his jacket aside. He cleared his throat and said to someone passing by, "Get me a loose-fitting coat."
Then, under the watchful eyes of Illa and Raphael, the man nodded and walked to the side...
He shifted his attention to Raphael within himself, analyzing his physical condition while asking curiously, "What am I now? Mana still exists, but it has no meaning to be activated... Similar to a soul, but not a soul."
Hearing Raphael's words, Yinla looked at him in surprise. As he took the clothes handed to him by the AI and put them on, he said, "You're more open than I expected... Do you know Schrödinger? Ah, if I had to explain it to you..."
Yinla tried hard to find words that Raphael could understand. As he walked forward, he said, "Let me take you to get something to eat first, and I'll explain everything to you along the way."
Eating? What is Inla Elkaras thinking?
“My race is angels, and angels do not need to eat.”
As Raphael said this, he followed Illa and said, “I can’t tell what’s wrong with me, but I’m sure… your soul carries the whole place where we are now.”
As Raphael spoke, looking at Illa who was organizing her thoughts, and taking in the thousands of different buildings around them, as well as the trillions of souls that made up an entire civilization, he said, "You are not a native of the Prime Material Plane... You are a descendant of a civilization."
In response to Raphael's words, Illa, who was not going to deny them anyway, nodded and replied, "Yes, I am the last survivor of a civilization, so I guess you could call it the mercy of the destroyers... So it's ridiculous that I can't bring myself to hate [people] who should be my enemies."
As she said this, Illa led Raphael into a place that looked like a restaurant. Raphael could barely make out the word "porcelain" in ancient Celtic language on the outside of the restaurant.
"Boss, two bowls of plain noodles, both large bowls."
As Yinla spoke, he gave instructions to the noodle shop owner and gestured for Raphael to sit next to him. While waiting for the noodles, he introduced the shop, saying, "This is a noodle shop. I like to come here to eat noodles before the world is destroyed."
Honestly, I've been using Yeguo Reading to read and follow my favorite books lately. It has easy source switching, multiple reading voice options, and is compatible with both Android and Apple devices. (yeguoyuedu)
Then, under the pensive gaze of Raphael, Illa began to recount the story of Schrödinger's cat from the beginning: "If you put a cat in a closed box, you cannot use your power to directly determine whether the cat is alive or dead."
"Inside this box is an alchemical potion that has a 50% chance of exploding within ten minutes, but the power of the explosion is not enough for you to know from the outside whether it has exploded or not, and the cat itself will not make a sound."
Yinla casually performed a Schrödinger's cat scenario in an alternate world, then asked Raphael, "Ten minutes have passed. At this very moment of the tenth minute, is this cat alive or dead?"
"..."
For Raphael, this was a very boring story.
"There's a 50% chance it's alive, and a 50% chance it's dead."
Although his answer indicated that he didn't understand, Yinla was still able to continue the conversation, saying, "What about locking it up for a hundred days? You still can't open the box... but can you assume the cat is dead?"
"..."
Raphael pondered the meaning of Illa's words until the two bowls of noodles were served. Then he slowly said, "Although the probability is low, there is still a chance of survival... Am I that cat?"
Raphael's comprehension seems terrifying; he truly lives up to his reputation as an outsider...
"From the outside perspective, the world itself cannot determine whether you are alive... but you cannot get out, and neither you, nor the people outside, nor even I, the one who released you, can open the box."
As Yinla spoke, she broke the noodles in half and gestured to Raphael, saying, "Try it. The broth here is incredibly delicious. I come here every week... of course, before civilization was destroyed."
"..."
"..."
Civilization is being destroyed...
As Raphael thought this, even as an outsider, it was the first time he had felt a sense of "the past is gone." He inexplicably imitated Ira, breaking open the clapper and taking off his helmet to reveal an extremely righteous face.
Yes, that's the only adjective left...light, great, righteous.
It was as if all justice resided upon it.
