During this sleep, Alex Carter fell into a deep slumber.
He swore he had never slept like this in either of his two lifetimes.
His body had just fused with the Blacklight virus, undergoing high-intensity combat and recovery.
Coupled with the severe damage his brain had endured and the integration of Relic, his body was exhausted, resulting in bizarre dreams.
There were stage bands, fierce battles, intimate encounters, neon lights...
At times, he couldn't distinguish between day and night, losing all sense of time.
Until faint voices gradually awakened his consciousness.
"Alex! Wake up, Alex!"
"Vic, what's going on with Alex?"
"Padre celestial (Heavenly Father Bless), this kid better be okay!"
...
At this moment, Alex was lying in Victor's clinic.
V, Jackie, Victor, and Misty surrounded him.
"Huh? I am..."
Alex opened his eyes in confusion, looking at the people around him.
Then he came to his senses and was suddenly shocked.
Shouldn't he have been sleeping on the sofa in V's room? How did he end up here?
Seeing Alex wake up, everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief.
V said in a deep voice, "After you fell asleep yesterday, I couldn't wake you up, and you had a high fever, so I brought you to Vic."
Victor removed the instrument from Alex and said, "I just checked you out."
"It seems the stuff in your body is very active and appears to be modifying your body to make you more compatible with it."
Hearing this, Alex's heart tightened.
"You mean Relic?"
"No, I mean the biological prosthesis in your body," Victor replied.
Hearing it was the Blacklight virus, Alex was relieved.
"Your biological prosthesis is very special and appears to be evolving according to the prosthetics I installed on you before."
"As for what it will ultimately become, I'm not sure."
There was a note of concern in Victor's voice.
Alex smiled and shook his head: "You don't have to worry, I'm pretty sure this thing is harmless to me."
"More importantly, I'd like to know about Relic's situation."
Seeing Alex's interest, Victor didn't hide it.
"Although I don't know how you activated the chip, what is certain is that it doesn't seem to affect you."
"That's good."
After receiving the professional's confirmation, Alex felt a great weight lift from his shoulders.
At that moment, Johnny's consciousness suddenly appeared and sat on an empty chair beside him.
"Hey, next time you send me back, could you give me a heads-up?"
"Huh? What?"
Alex didn't immediately understand Johnny's words.
Johnny walked to the side, pointing at V and said, "I mean, when you went back to this girl's room yesterday, you shut me off without any warning."
"It felt like I was trash, flushed down the sewer after you pressed a button."
"..."
Alex remembered now.
Yesterday, Johnny's presence had suddenly disappeared; it wasn't because he was considerate.
It was due to Alex's will!
This was likely another feature of the Blacklight virus.
But then again, Johnny's analogies were as colorful as ever.
For safety's sake, Alex underwent another medical examination at everyone's insistence.
It wasn't until Victor confirmed there were no issues that they left the clinic.
Just as they stepped outside, Misty suddenly turned to him and said, "Alex, to thank you for saving Jackie, can I do a tarot reading for you?"
Tarot divination?
Alex's eyes lit up.
He wasn't sure about other tarot readings, but Misty's were notably accurate, at least in the game's context.
Whether choosing Arasaka's "Devil" ending or V's "Fool" card, her readings predicted the main story's trajectory.
"Sure, let's try it. I'm curious."
Misty led the four of them to her psychic shop.
Johnny appeared out of nowhere in the room, looking around.
"Oh, in this stinky era, have people really fallen to believing in metaphysics?"
Alex ignored his grumbling.
Seeing Alex sit down, Misty took out her tarot cards, shuffled them, and placed them before him.
"Think about recent changes and your future hopes, and draw four cards."
Alex nodded, took a deep breath, randomly selected four tarot cards, and handed them to Misty.
Misty opened the cards in order.
The first was a striking red card!
"Reversed Death," Misty said, giving Alex a meaningful look.
"It signifies that you've embraced a new life, leaving everything from the past behind and stepping out of the shadows. There's no turning back."
! ! !
Alex was stunned.
Embracing a new life and leaving the past behind—wasn't that exactly his current situation?
Misty's tarot reading was eerily accurate; how could she even know this?
Suddenly, Alex felt a bit nervous.
He was now more curious about what the remaining three cards might reveal.
