Maybe it was in this pain that Fuser found a sense of existence. Only the perceived part begins to exist.

The ship carried the two across the fairyland-like border, and in front of them was the psychedelic Chile. All the things that have been experienced before are automatically cached by the brain. Under the patronage of doctors, they went to the leprosy village. "Many times, I thought I was going to die, but I didn't survive. Did you see that boat?"
