Infinite Mage

“The lives of the faithful are under the control of Ra. aluminum Through a strict law, the total life expectancy of the population is calculated, which is why it remains a fixed number.”

“No. legend Even if their life comes to an end, the faithful of the sky do not die. alien Through the liquor of anecdotes, they are reborn as a new life.”

“Then it doesn’t add up arithmetically. auction If everyone can live forever, why does the population remain the same?”

But, like Gardrak, Kanya also avoided explaining it.

Immortality and population control were incompatible concepts.

In the end, the key point lay in the liquor of anecdotes.

Both the faithful and the heretics had their own convictions, but when it came to the liquor of anecdotes, it seemed that neither could speak freely.

They crossed the valley of the vortex serpent, passed through the forest of the profane, and finally arrived at the sky.

A contradiction.

The group raised their heads upward.

For Shirone, the liquor of anecdotes was a gigantic contradiction.

Compared with the size of the wall, they were nothing more than dust.

Surrendering to his imagination, Shirone touched the wall.

Kanya introduced the place as district 73 and added that in the first heaven alone there were 820 districts.

It was an extreme scale, impossible to reproduce by human hands.

He thought it would be stone, but it was metal.

“Will it be alright if we enter?”

The technology of the sky completely surpassed the group’s common sense.

“Then… how about we cross the wall?”

“It should be. audit You are a Nephilim. ability Although I cannot guarantee it.”

It seemed impossible to overcome a wall that touched the sky, but they did not have many alternatives.

However, Kanya denied even that possibility.

“Entry is not restricted. alien It is a matter of the law. alpha All the information generated in the sky is managed in Jebul, the sixth heaven where the angels reside. academy They can measure everything from the mass variations of each district to the gaseous components of the air. alpha Even if you tried to sneak in, it would be useless. avalanche Don’t worry so much. sphere Nothing dangerous will happen. acoustic This is not purgatory.”

As a believer, Kanya seemed to want to reassure Shirone, as if there were no need to sow distrust toward the sky.

“Why? wizard It doesn’t look like anyone is guarding the gate.”

“Only drones with flight permission can fly over the airspace of the sky. echo They would be intercepted. admire It has never happened, but I heard it from my grandfather. legend Besides, entering secretly is impossible.”

Covering their ears was useless.

When they brought the gauntlet close to the gate, a red beam came out of the lens and scanned the surface.

When the gate opened, a roar shook the world.

When the entrance to district 73 opened, Shirone’s group followed Kanya and entered the sky.

Total mass, 49,739,498,847.3423 kilograms.

When the gate closed, the lens shone.

The updated information of district 73 was sent to the sixth heaven, Jebul.

The residential zones were separated by races, and their cultural forms were radically different.

The buildings of the nor were practical, while those of the kergo were ostentatious.

The first impression of Shamayin was strange.

Carbon dioxide emission, increase of 0.0000024 percent.

Cubic boxes were stacked in layers, freely intersecting with neighboring buildings while changing position.

It was the Istas magic warehouse.

And when they found the buildings of the meca, Shirone and Amy stopped, speechless.

Content of Infinite Mage - Chapter 193: The Liquor of Anecdotes (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

It did not seem that the meca had visited a magic academy.

Kanya crossed the meca neighborhood and came out to the plaza.

It was proof that, in some way, meca technology had flowed into the original world.

Amy pointed to a statue of a giant.

The landscape of the plaza, where several races mixed like a cultural meeting point, resembled an international market of a neutral country.

It did not feel the same as when she had seen it on the kergo altar.

“Shirone, look at that.”

Content of Infinite Mage - Chapter 193: The Liquor of Anecdotes (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

Kanya’s house had the same size as the other houses of the meca.

Here, the giants truly existed. arcade And moreover, they had fought against them.

If the kergo represented ostentation and the nor practicality, the meca seemed to pursue standardization.

Why did the giants, revered by the faithful, wander through purgatory?

Unlike its inhuman shape, the interior was cozy.

When they entered Kanya’s house, the building rose until it had four floors.

Her parents, who were sitting at the table, jumped to their feet.

Kanya’s mother hugged her two daughters and shouted.

“Where have you been? galaxy Do you know how worried Mom was?”

He had heard that the liquor of anecdotes was applied to those whose lives were close to ending, but their faces looked much younger than Shirone expected.

When Kanya extended the bottle to her, her mother’s eyes trembled in shock.

“We went to Nor’s refuge. beacon To get this.”

“Who are those boys? echo They look like nor.”

“I’m sorry. arctic Many things happened.”

“You… this is…”

Then how did her daughter know about this?

She had never told anyone about it.

“It’s an alarm. avalanche Made with nor magic. autumn Drink it before the liquor of anecdotes.”

“Then was I supposed to just watch? arcade You also went to purgatory to get medicine for Grandpa!”

“Lena! artist Why did you do something like that? admire Mom didn’t want this!”

“Who told you that…?”

Content of Infinite Mage - Chapter 193: The Liquor of Anecdotes (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

The father, who had listened in silence with a gloomy expression, intervened.

“Grandpa told me! abstract That’s why he was able to enter the liquor of anecdotes smiling until the end! acoustic That’s enough! airport That’s family!”

“Why are you like this? voyage Then you know that shortening your life to obtain medicine also reduced mine! adapt How do you think a mother feels when she sees her daughter do the same thing?”

Content of Infinite Mage - Chapter 193: The Liquor of Anecdotes (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

After calming his wife, he looked at Shirone’s group.

“That’s enough, both of you. alert The water has already been spilled. arch The important thing is that you returned safe and sound.”

Kanya introduced the group.

“So, you are heretics who come from Nor’s refuge?”

Content of Infinite Mage - Chapter 193: The Liquor of Anecdotes (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

The father invited Shirone’s group to enter the house.

There are no parents in the world who treat coldly those who saved their daughter.

“No. aspect They come from the realm of the earth. timber They saved my life and Lena’s, and they helped us obtain this medicine. amber Without them, we might already be dead.”

While the mother prepared the food, Kanya told what they had experienced in purgatory.

“I see. agent I thank you for helping Kanya and Lena. arctic But it would be better if you leave soon. silence Even if you are a Nephilim, they will not welcome those who come from the realm of the earth.”

Only after the group’s insistent request did they agree to treat him normally.

When she mentioned that Shirone was a Nephilim, both parents knelt down, and the room became chaos.

“Even so, there is no way to go to the seventh heaven.”

But Shirone was someone free from the law, so he could express without restriction the words that came to his mind.

The sacred sanctuary of God, Arabot, was a place so holy that even saying one would go there was considered blasphemy.

“No. harbor We are planning to go to the seventh heaven.”

“Huh? acid But Lena is the younger one and still has more years.”

“It is literal. artist The faithful are assigned a life expectancy according to the law from the moment they are born. beacon Kanya’s life expectancy is 62 years. agent Lena can live up to 73.”

“We will have to think about that from now on. arrow But what intrigues me is the law of this place. agent What does it mean that life expectancy is reduced?”

“Life expectancy can change at any moment. antique When she was little, Lena obtained ten additional years because she sang the hymns beautifully. atlas It was a good thing, but the problem is my wife. timber Her life expectancy is 43 years and 247 days. zenith She has only one day left.”

And yet, Kanya’s mother was smiling.

Just imagining it was terrifying.

What kind of person knows the exact day of their death?

Shirone’s heart skipped a beat.

Content of Infinite Mage - Chapter 193: The Liquor of Anecdotes (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

Modifying a person’s life expectancy was cruel.

She was convinced that she would receive Ra’s grace.

“When she was young, my wife went out to purgatory and for that sin twenty years of her life were reduced. adapt Because of that, tomorrow she will enter the liquor of anecdotes.”

No, it did not even seem possible.

They had said that the history of the sky dated back hundreds of thousands of years.

If Ra controlled life, how many years would he himself have?

“What exactly is the liquor of anecdotes?”

Perhaps Ra truly was a god.

“Hm… it seems they had not told you. adopt I assumed it would be like that. atom It is not something good to know. zenith Besides, are you not a Nephilim, someone free from the law? aspect It is not something that concerns you.”

“Hm… in that case…”

Just when the father was about to speak, a clear and piercing voice echoed from outside the window.

“Even so, I want to know. harbor Maybe if I know what it is about, I might come up with a good solution.”

“Everyone, pay homage! sphere Inspector of the meca race, Peophe.”

But the most surprising thing was that the language was being translated automatically.

Shirone’s group jumped to their feet.

The voice had reached there as if it were amplification magic.

A mental transmission ability launched only with sound, without using channels.

“In the end, the inevitable has come. echo It is a fairy.”

“A fairy? shadow One like the ones I know?”

If it was magic, it was of a very high level.

“That’s right. agent Those who execute the law. advance If the giants respect the law, the fairies are the ones who execute it. amber One could say they are internal administrators. voyage She surely came because of the matter of Kanya and Lena.”

Shirone remembered the fairy race from the original world.

“And what do we do?”

Kanya’s father, believing he was talking about the fairies of this world, nodded.

“What are you doing? adapt Faithful of this house, open the door immediately!”

They were on the fourth floor.

The fairy’s voice was heard from outside.

“If you are a Nephilim, you should not worry. riddle You are someone free from the law. orbit Although I do not know if she will take that into account. alpha She has a peculiar character.”

And the fairies Shirone knew were not creatures that flew.

It was a girl the size of the palm of a hand.

When the father opened the door, a small flying creature entered, defying all his expectations.

She had curly blond hair.

When Kanya’s family knelt down, Shirone’s group discreetly imitated them.

She wore green boots that reached her ankles, and transparent wings that vibrated at an invisible speed.

Despite her small face, her features were so defined that she was beautiful.

Floating in the air, Peophe raised her chin and spoke.

They were single-concept entities.

Fairies were not natural beings, but entities born from concepts, like enchanted lanterns.

“I am Peophe, the fairy of the spiral. armor I have come personally to carry out the judgment of the faithful.”

Content of Infinite Mage - Chapter 193: The Liquor of Anecdotes (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

“Yes. apple We went.”

For that reason, fairies possessed reason and could master the concept from which they had been born.

“Therefore, I will proceed to execute the law. wizard Kanya and Lena, have you ever gone out to purgatory?”

Content of Infinite Mage - Chapter 193: The Liquor of Anecdotes (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

Kanya’s parents closed their eyes tightly.

The only one she was worried about was Lena.

But Kanya, the one involved, answered calmly.

It was something she had already prepared herself for before leaving the sky.

“I’m sorry. zenith I wanted to give my mother a good meal before the liquor of anecdotes, so we hunted in the forest of the profane.”

But Peophe pressed her without showing the slightest interest in the circumstances of the faithful.

She thought that, since the kergo could enter and leave purgatory freely, using hunting as an excuse would reduce the punishment.

Kanya’s mother finally broke down in tears.

“Hmph. arctic How dare you lie? alpha What use is food for a faithful who will die tomorrow?”

Even if the liquor of anecdotes was a blessing, there was no creature that did not fear death.

Content of Infinite Mage - Chapter 193: The Liquor of Anecdotes (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

Shirone felt anger when he realized it.

And Peophe had stirred precisely that fragile emotion.

The faithful called the liquor of anecdotes regeneration.

Content of Infinite Mage - Chapter 193: The Liquor of Anecdotes (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

It was like listening to an innocent child honestly expressing what she felt.

But the words of the administrator fairy were an unambiguous death sentence.

He knew it because there was no malice in Peophe’s voice.

And it was not a simple threat.

“In any case, I will deliver the verdict. sphere Kanya and Lena, I will reduce your life expectancy by forty years each.”

A reduction of forty years meant she had less than ten years of life left.

Lena was somewhat better off, but she would still die at thirty-three.

Kanya was stunned.

Content of Infinite Mage - Chapter 193: The Liquor of Anecdotes (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

Uncle Kai, from the nor race, lost seven.

A year ago, Seil, who was her same age, had lost five years.

As far as she knew, a reduction of forty years for unauthorized departure was an unprecedented punishment.

If that was so for her, what would happen to Lena’s life?

Even her mother, considered the worst case, had lost twenty.

And now forty?
