"[Cognitive World]——

What I am talking about now is not an academic term in philosophy or psychology, but a real reality composed of the human mind.

Judging from the information I have obtained so far, it seems that the cognitive world differs according to each person's view of the world.

In other words, it’s...[the world inside the brain]? But it doesn’t make sense..."

"Lassenmo (what is that?)..."

"Kazuye! Swallow the food carefully before you speak! You are a young lady who has received strict etiquette education, aren't you?"

In a family restaurant that looked nice, Xingqi and Yiye were face to face, sitting at a window seat, and ordered a table of various foods.

It's still a bit early now, and there aren't many customers in the store yet.

"Chew, chew - gulp - swallow.

My dear, when it comes to etiquette, you can just show off in front of outsiders. It will be very tiring if you strictly observe it when eating every day.

And strictly following the etiquette class, doesn't it match the atmosphere of this store?" Kazuyo retorted, shaking the spoon.

“This is this, that is that, [etiquette] and [etiquette] are also different, okay?

The [etiquette] in [It is etiquette not to speak while eating] is different from the [etiquette] in [Complicated table manners]..."

"Okay, okay, people know it! I've been preaching endlessly... So, let's get back to the subject, what exactly is the cognitive world?" Kazuye interrupted Hoshiki's twisted question,

asked.

"...Okay, even if you unfortunately choke on your food and are on the verge of death, I will save you."

"No way! What have you experienced, little one? Why are you worried about something like this happening?

(?○Д○)?!”

Xingke smiled awkwardly, coughed twice and said:

"Ahem, first of all, the [cognitive world] is a world that exists based on human spiritual thinking. There is nothing wrong with this.

Because, it can be concluded that after a person dies in the real world, the [cognitive world] based on him will no longer exist..."

Don't ask how Xing Ke knew it. For evil magicians, the most indispensable thing in the world is experimental subjects.

"Furthermore, everyone in this world, big or small, normal or distorted, will have their own [cognitive world]. These cognitive worlds are connected together and divided into individual

area……"

Xingke cut the whole pancake he had on hand into small pieces, and then poured honey to connect them together, vividly showing the relationship between them.

"And among them, there are often some special individuals whose cognition is distorted by desire, engulfed by their own inflated desires, and become [Shado] controlled by desire..."

Xing immediately put ketchup, mustard sauce, barbecue sauce, chili sauce and soy sauce on top of several larger pieces of sweet pancakes on the plate...

"These people who are distorted by desire are all so-called [sinners] or [criminals] in the real world..."

"Ah, doesn't it look delicious? Don't waste food, little one?"

"Ahem... In short, although it is very normal for human beings to be distorted by desire.

Just like this overly sweet pancake cannot cater to everyone's taste senses, sometimes adding some condiments according to each person's personality will make it more delicious."

"But, little one, let's not talk about ketchup, mustard, barbecue sauce, chili sauce and soy sauce? Isn't it too much to say this?"

"Yes! It's too much! It's simply a dark dish! So... the appearance of existences like [The Phantom Thieves] is not very strange.

【Reparo】!

As the almighty magic came into play, the pancakes gradually returned to their original state before the strange juice was poured on them.

"Existences that are excessively distorted by desire will form a place they call [Demon Palace (CE)] in their cognitive world."

Hearing the keyword "Demon Palace (ce)", Kazuyo's expression was slightly stunned.

Xingke seemed not to notice and continued:

"People who belong to the Phantom Thieves all have the ability to enter the [cognitive world] and the ability to fight in the cognitive world. What is it called... [Persona]? Anyway, it is a very handsome one.

Just a very cool ability!"

"By chance, they followed the guidance of fate and gained strength. They are also a group of [just partners] with ambition and revenge..."

Speaking of this, Xingke's eyes flickered with a light that Ichiba didn't quite understand and couldn't explain.

"Until two years ago, they were still very active in the area around Shigen Tea House... Sneaking into [Demon Palace (ce)], defeating [Shado], and stealing the most important things for [Sinners]

A [treasure], in order to achieve the purpose of breaking the [Demon Palace (ce)] and allowing the [sinner] to reform.

How's it going? Isn't it interesting?"

"……Um."

Yiye lowered his head and took a sip of lemon ice tea, then raised his head with a bright smile and said:

“To be honest, I don’t understand what’s so interesting about it!”

"Um..." [Star Carving] HP-10.

"Is it because it's more like a game?"

"Ah..." [Star Carving] HP-0.

"If we talk about games, it's not as interesting as the "AccelWorld" you made!"

"Oh?——" [Star Carving] HP +1000!

"Really?"

"Yeah! It's true! My little one is the best!"

"Haha, even if you praise me like this, there won't be any reward..." Although I know in my heart what the game I put together is like, I am still very happy to be praised!

"Yes, yes! "AccelWorld" is the best in the world, and "AccelWorld" is invincible in the universe! So..." At this point, Gong Changyiye's smile gradually turned serious: "Little one, you

Can you promise me not to use your [Cognition of the World] research on my mother?"

"It's impossible!"

Xingke also responded to Yiye's request with the brightest smile:

"Originally, I dug out this neglected research project just to use it on you!"

Even if she was discovered, there was nothing she could do about it, because Xingji had never thought of hiding the fact that she needed treatment from "Patient Kazuyo" herself.

However, just like the ordinary Fukai Hyouto, Kazuye did not feel that she was sick, so she pouted her lips very unhappy.

At this moment, her mind flashed through various operations to escape treatment, such as running away, resisting, forcing death, etc., but she rejected them all instantly. It was not because of anything else, but because the opponent was too strong, and there was no

Likelihood of success.

However, even if she is weak, she is not completely unable to escape the "claws" of the evil magician!

"Hi! Little someone!~"

With a begging and flattering smile, Kazuye began to call out Hoshiki's name.

"What else do I have to do here?"

Staring at the missing corner of the pancake on the plate, Xing was worried and ignored Yiye completely.

""AccelWorld" is the best in the world, "AccelWorld" is invincible in the universe!"

"Haha, naive! Even if you praise me to the sky, I won't let you go!"

Yes, Kazuyo's method is very simple! That is to act like a spoiled child! Beg for mercy! Praise him to the sky!

Kazuye, who has been with him for a long time, knows that Xingke is very soft-spoken towards acquaintances!

"The little one is the best in the world, the little one is invincible in the universe!~"

"..." Under the public in the hall, Xing Mo felt a little ashamed.

"Little one is the best! Little one is the most powerful!~"

"..."

"Little someone..."

"Kukuku~ That's wrong!~ The strongest person is me! The True Eye of the Evil King!~"
