Shadow Hearts: Covenant Part #111

Part 111: The Miracle

This update may be slightly NSFW.

I guess there's no going back now.

We take the elevator down and go through the door on the right.

So it's finally time.

I haven't got a good feeling about this.

I feel the same way. I mean, so far we've had nothing but failures when it comes to magic! If Yuri or Roger turns into a monster, I just couldn't take it...

.........

Karin...

And if worst comes to worst, I'll do whatever I have to do.

I'm sorry to have to ask you guys, but...

And with that, Roger and Yuri head into the lab, leaving everyone else outside to wait.

The doors close.

Karin slumps to the floor.

Look at that!

Well, let's get started.

Okay!

Roger goes over to a huge bank of controls.

As Roger engages the controls, the building starts shaking. Karin gets up and backs away from the doors.

...!

Something inside the tank begins to take shape.

Alice!

Now begins the secret of the Émigré Manuscript.

So this is what Kato did, too?

Not quite. Kato created Ouka by using her hair follicles to make a clone. He merely used the Émigré to manipulate time and force the nucleus to grow more rapidly than normal. That's why Ouka doesn't have any of Yoshiko Kawashima's memories. She was born a completely separate individual.

So...what about Alice?

She's exactly the same Alice that you knew. Her memories and emotions are just as they were at the time she died. When she wakes up, she'll feel just as though she had a nice, long sleep.

You can't be serious!

Yes, but the experiment isn't a success yet.

...!

This is just...a vessel for her soul to enter. The magic happens from this point on. The real trick is going to be calling her soul back into this body. To this point, not a single wizard has been able to do it. This will be the true test. We may even...give birth to a monster, or we might even become monsters ourselves.
