Chapter 2869 Coexist With The Poison
Most of the experts had smiles on their faces.
“We have discovered a solution!”
They were excited because they had indeed found a way to treat Forlevia.
Dr. Erebus, however, let out a sigh in response.
He didn’t seem very satisfied with the method they had come up with.
Levi noticed the looks on everyone’s faces, and he realized something was amiss when he saw Dr. Erebus’ expression.
“The solution is simple! We will let the child coexist perfectly with the poison in her body!” said one of the toxicology experts.
“Huh? Coexist? What do you mean by that?”
Levi didn’t quite understand what he meant.
Isn’t Evie already coexisting with the poison right now? What other form of coexistence is there?
“I think it’d be better if I do the explanation.” Dr. Erebus stepped forward and looked straight at Levi as he continued, “They were discussing how they would allow the poison to take over Evie’s body completely. That way, Evie would become the true poison.”
Levi instantly understood what Dr. Erebus was trying to say.
That’s exactly what Evie is going through at the moment. She will eventually become the poison itself, so all I’m able to do is delay that process as much as possible…
“Isn’t that just letting it take over her body, though? How is that coexisting?” Levi asked in confusion.
“By coexistence, it means she gets to retain her consciousness even though her body becomes the poison. However, Evie will have no control over her body,” Dr. Erebus explained.
That was when Levi slowly came to understand what they meant.
“In other words, Evie will only retain her consciousness while her body becomes the poison completely? Does that mean she won’t be able to control her eyes, nose, and mouth? Are we only able to monitor her consciousness through the use of specialized equipment?” he asked anxiously.
Dr. Erebus nodded. “Precisely. To be honest, it wouldn’t make a difference whether she gets to keep her body or not. You see, our main focus here is simply to retain her consciousness. Since it doesn’t have to be stored in her body, we can extract and separate it from her body.”
He had made himself very clear with that explanation.
Forlevia’s entire body, including her brain, would eventually be taken over by the poison.
Only something without a physical form like her consciousness could be extracted from her body.
As such, whether or not they kept her body didn’t matter at all.
The only reason they would even try to keep her body was that they knew how much Levi loved her.
By retaining Forlevia’s consciousness, they would at least be able to keep it alive even if her body ended up turning into poison.
She would practically be like someone in a vegetative state but slightly stronger.
With the advanced technology of their devices, Levi would be able to detect and even communicate with Forlevia’s consciousness.
On top of that, they would also be able to keep her body from rotting.
This is the only option we have available to us. Without it, Forlevia would eventually die and lose her consciousness along with her life. Now that I think about it, these experts and specialists are actually helpless against the poison. Sure, it’s nice that they could help Evie retain her consciousness, but doing so is a form of compromise instead of a solution. Still, it is all they can do right now… Wait… No! I won’t agree to this! How could I possibly allow my daughter to be reduced to a mere consciousness? This isn’t a solution at all! I won’t accept this!
“I am unable to accept this option. I wish to keep both my daughter’s consciousness and her body alive! Regardless, I thank you all for your time and energy. I owe you all a favor, so just call me up if you ever need my help!” Levi said politely.
“That’s all right! We’ll continue researching for other solutions while you go look for alternatives out there!”
They didn’t take Levi’s promise seriously as he wasn’t a Deity.
With that, Levi could only continue his search for a solution.
