Falling Cosmos

Tormented by loan sharks, Lorn had lived the life of an 'ascetic'. He would willingly become homeless and live the life of a beggar (and only sometimes a pickpocket), so his hard-earned money wouldn't fall into his debtors' hands. Hopefully, they would finally leave him alone after realizing he's worth nothing anymore. But realizing his plans, the debtors decide to sell him as a guinea pig! The One Country's grand experiment attempting to copy a human's consciousness and put it inside the digital space! The only catch is, 80% of the test subjects are expected to receive lasting damages to their brain. However, Lorn finds a once-in-a-lifetime chance. The researchers were creating a virtual world using the digital space. And to create profits from it, instead of simply creating boring-old Virtual Earth (and calling it the Metaverse), they were making a game out of it! The first fully immersive VRMMORPG in the world! As the first tester of this game, Lorn would be a disgrace if he couldn't make money off of it!

The one thing

She brought in a warmer and put the mice inside it. Twenty minutes later, when they were thawed enough to survive the ordeal of receiving life, she brought them out again. Any longer, and its body would start rotting. 

Carefully, she placed them on their bellies, and stared at them for a few seconds. She nodded to herself and got to work.

Under the effects of her Handling skills, the mice's fur split, then their skull, and finally their brain. A small hole had appeared, and she located the mice's equivalent of the lateral ventricle.

Staring at the human version, she used both Organ Handling on it. Slowly, it turned into the exact same shape as the mice's. The spots where it would connect with the rest of the mice's brain, she transformed it to become as similar to the mice's using Organ Alteration. 

All that was left was to perform the operation.
