The Illusion Unveiled

The plan worked like a charm, and Cain was now walking down the stairs that led to the path outside of the prison side to side with the beauty who didn't bother to look at him.

"You know, it makes me feel uneasy whenever you make that sad face. If you knew how much I love Tsuyoi Chi, you wouldn't be making such an expression."

The young girl, now dressed in a light blue hanfu, ignored him and asked the thing bothering her heart:

"How is Encender? Is she really okay?"

The honorary prince nodded, his square-shaped face serious. 

"Yes. Both the Warden and Vice Warden assured me that they won't do anything to your friends for the time being. They will provide weekly reports on her current activities."

"I see."

After hearing Tsuyoi's words, I couldn't perceive anymore, as the duo was now walking out of range of my ears.

During that time, I switched to what Hein was doing. 

He was just staring at the shimmering light coming out of Encender's body with an expressionless face.

If Cain hadn't ordered for her to be kept alive for a month, Hein wouldn't have hesitated to execute her right then.

He had excused all the prison guards to go and rest, leaving him alone as he watched the golden light surround Encender's body for the next two hours.

"It is finally gone." Hein smiled as he watched Encender's body fall to the concrete floor.

Bam—!

Hein jumped off from the top of the Book Cube and slowly walked over to the rugby field where the young girl was laying unconscious.

He quickly transformed his throat into that of a hummingbird and whispered, "Humm...uuu... Huhuhu Huhuhu hutururu..."

Reaching the concrete field, he stared at the light brown-haired girl with an ugly expression on his face that could be seen even before his next words.

"Because of a bitch like you, I haven't found the person who sent that lunchbox containing Igor and Kontrolu's heads to my office."

Bam—! Bam—! Bam—!

Hein started kicking Encender with his right leg, inflicting injuries she had never experienced before. 

Yet, like water in a drought, Encender didn't show any signs of waking up.

"I promised that bastard Cain that I wouldn't do anything to you, but I will let the other inmates make you experience a hell you've never felt before."

He abandoned kicking her and started slapping the young girl whenever he saw fit.

His slaps seemed to have an effect on Encender's Delta waves as he started giving orders.

"I want you to let Star Kazuma fight your other inmates! Bitch, make sure to stay asleep and never wake up again! You will only rise up with the dead."

He stopped hitting Encender and started walking back to the location of the X-Block.

"I will find that xenogenisis and deal with him accordingly."

The moment he reached the basketball court, he put an earbud in his right ear and ordered.

"Prison system, I want you to use GPT 20 to induce an illusion into Star Kazuma.

Make him have overwhelming feelings for Encender, which will make him be the first person to leave their cells the moment the bars raise up.

The moment his hand touches Encender Tohil, make him think that they are a married couple, and anyone who talks about Encender is an enemy who is after his lovely wife.

You only need to do that, I will handle the rest."

The Galactic Prison A.I. system replied with a male robotic voice, "Order taken. Starting the process of affecting Star Kazuma's Delta brain wave. I will affect his other brain waves when he is awake and active for easy manipulation."

"I will kill myself, Xenogenisis, even if it's the last thing I do."

And that's how I earned the nickname Xenogenisis. Well, that is not important right now, as I need to figure out how I fall into this illusion.

The A.I. system from my home planet was GPT 15 and didn't have the ability to create or induce illusions, unlike this GPT 20.

The fact that I am fighting Star has now become a joke to me.

I realized that when smoke covered the whole pathway, the three gunshots I heard weren't from Rajah's gun but from the speakers stuck in the ceiling.

My other four senses were affected the moment I stepped into the pathway leading to the dressing rooms.

My sight was affected by looking at the holographic figure of Star. 

My taste and smell were affected by the gunpowder covering the whole place. 

Lastly, the sense of touch was affected by having contact with the walls.

Technology is really fascinating, isn't it? 

Not only can it create an artificial human capable of dying, but it can also replicate abilities from those bitten by crystal bugs.

Knowing that I am under an illusion doesn't give me the liberty to let myself be beat up by the holographic Star.

Fifty percent of the damage I take in the illusion is transferred back to my body.

Swish—!

Rolling on the ground, I dodged the blades that rushed at me like a blast from a young volcano. 

Yet, the attack didn't stop there, as blades quickly formed from the ground.

I immediately performed a backflip and focused on how to break away from this artificial intelligence illusion forced upon me.

The only thing I can do now is force a hypnosis on myself.

It is such a blessing that when I was in prison, I studied a lot about the human mind, unlike the other guys who forced themselves to be muscle freaks.

My golden eyes closed, and I recalled the first test I got from the book, 'The Soul of Hypnotism.'

Question: Force a hypnosis upon yourself.

Answer: Believe in what you are going to do with all you have.

'I, Tito Roux Z, will save the girl who looks like the mirror image of my younger sister, Ida Rouz!!'
