Infinite Mage

She could not understand what was happening inside her.

At the moment when the hope of being able to live arose, the firm emotions that dominated her began to fade like foam.

Peophe’s face became rigid when she heard Shirone’s words.

“Mock you? orbit Don’t talk nonsense. arcade Saving someone who asks to live is natural. accent Because I also want to live. afford My life is valuable, and that is why I know how valuable the lives of others are.”

Shirone had still not decided to release her definitively.

“A-are you mocking me? absorb What do you gain by humiliating me?”

Content of Infinite Mage - Chapter 195: The Liquor of Anecdotes (3) published by TrungTu Reads.

But he thought about Kanya and Lena.

Until the last instant, his decision remained uncertain.

He could not allow them to die like that.

Content of Infinite Mage - Chapter 195: The Liquor of Anecdotes (3) published by TrungTu Reads.

He tightened the hand holding Peophe.

“Two.”

“I will count to three. attic One.”

Content of Infinite Mage - Chapter 195: The Liquor of Anecdotes (3) published by TrungTu Reads.

Shirone did not loosen his grip.

And just when he was about to say three, Peophe, with her eyes tightly shut, shouted.

“S-save me.”

Peophe said it in a low voice.

Content of Infinite Mage - Chapter 195: The Liquor of Anecdotes (3) published by TrungTu Reads.

“Save me! armor I’m telling you to save me! amateur I don’t want to die!”

After regaining her freedom, she flapped her wings and rose into the air.

Shirone released her.

Content of Infinite Mage - Chapter 195: The Liquor of Anecdotes (3) published by TrungTu Reads.

“Do you think you will come out unharmed after doing something like that?”

With her face red like the sunset, she rebuked him furiously.

“What did I do?”

Content of Infinite Mage - Chapter 195: The Liquor of Anecdotes (3) published by TrungTu Reads.

Peophe could not reply.

“Yes. beacon And that is exactly what you did to Kanya and Lena.”

“You tried to kill me!”

Content of Infinite Mage - Chapter 195: The Liquor of Anecdotes (3) published by TrungTu Reads.

But when her own life had been in someone else’s hands, the matter became complicated.

She had never reflected deeply about the life expectancy of the faithful.

She had been an executor of the law since her birth.

Content of Infinite Mage - Chapter 195: The Liquor of Anecdotes (3) published by TrungTu Reads.

Life was sweet.

“I also think what happened to Kanya’s mother was unfair. antenna Return her life expectancy.”

Even for a fairy who could live ten thousand years.

Death was frightening.

Content of Infinite Mage - Chapter 195: The Liquor of Anecdotes (3) published by TrungTu Reads.

Peophe, still unable to organize her thoughts, became irritated by the pressure.

“Then judge Kanya and Lena again first. echo You can do that, can’t you?”

“I already told you! amber Only the upper leadership of the seventy-two hierarchies of fairies can touch the life record. alien A verdict that has already been issued cannot be reversed.”

Peophe rested her chin on her hand and thought.

Content of Infinite Mage - Chapter 195: The Liquor of Anecdotes (3) published by TrungTu Reads.

Shirone let out a dry laugh.

That the sentence was reduced was a relief, but the difference in judgment was absurd.

“Well… then I will leave it as a reduction of one year.”

Content of Infinite Mage - Chapter 195: The Liquor of Anecdotes (3) published by TrungTu Reads.

It seemed that from the beginning there had been no standard at all.

“That’s not it. echo Doesn’t it seem strange to you? timber There should be a criterion for applying punishment.”

“If I reduce it you also complain! amateur Then should I raise it again to twenty years?”

“What is this, a junk shop? academy Can you deliver a sentence however you feel like it?”

Content of Infinite Mage - Chapter 195: The Liquor of Anecdotes (3) published by TrungTu Reads.

He had to accept that fairies were a species different from humans.

“I am the criterion! altitude I am the executor of the law! academy You know? acid Now that I think about it, you are quite ignorant.”

Shirone remained silent.

Content of Infinite Mage - Chapter 195: The Liquor of Anecdotes (3) published by TrungTu Reads.

Peophe was an executor of the law.

While humans could divide love into countless nuances, for a fairy love was simply love.

A fairy’s way of thinking was more encompassing.

Content of Infinite Mage - Chapter 195: The Liquor of Anecdotes (3) published by TrungTu Reads.

That was why she never doubted her own judgment.

That she could not make detailed evaluations like two years and three months or seven years and six months was also understandable.

She knew how terrifying death was, and that was why she left it at one year.

Perhaps after thousands of years her thinking would become deeper.

Content of Infinite Mage - Chapter 195: The Liquor of Anecdotes (3) published by TrungTu Reads.

But now she was only one year old.

“Leaving? ability And Kanya’s mother? wizard Aren’t you going to resolve that?”

“Is it fine now? avalanche Then I’m leaving. beacon Fairies have a lot of work.”

Content of Infinite Mage - Chapter 195: The Liquor of Anecdotes (3) published by TrungTu Reads.

“Then at least tell me the method. attic You are a fairy, you must know something. palette I will not let you go until you speak.”

“And how do you want me to resolve it? harbor At that time I had not even been born! attic Besides, I am the youngest of the seventy-two hierarchies. antenna I do not have the authority to modify the life record.”

Peophe turned toward him with eyes reddened by anger.

Peophe had a twisted character typical of a spirit of the spiral, but being so young she was not difficult to handle.

Content of Infinite Mage - Chapter 195: The Liquor of Anecdotes (3) published by TrungTu Reads.

Peophe blinked with moist eyes.

“Ha. antique Do you think I cannot leave if you block me? altitude And no one can intervene in the affairs of the fairy realm. attic That is established by the law.”

If he could extract information from her, perhaps there would be a way to save Kanya’s mother.

“I don’t know what that law says, but you also know it is unfair. atomic Life is valuable. agent Is it really fine to reduce someone’s life by twenty years just like that?”

Content of Infinite Mage - Chapter 195: The Liquor of Anecdotes (3) published by TrungTu Reads.

“Weren’t you the executor of the law? abandon When you were so confident in yourself, what happened? avalanche Are you running away now?”

“Why do you keep pressuring me? altitude I only do what I am ordered to do!”

To judge the rightness or wrongness of the law with one’s own criterion, one would probably have to live at least six hundred years.

In truth, not even she herself knew.

Content of Infinite Mage - Chapter 195: The Liquor of Anecdotes (3) published by TrungTu Reads.

“First tell me what the liquor of anecdotes is.”

“Ah, enough! alien What do you want to know?”

“The liquor of anecdotes? wizard It is a sacred technique. advance The law of the faithful is purified and they are reborn as new life.”

Content of Infinite Mage - Chapter 195: The Liquor of Anecdotes (3) published by TrungTu Reads.

But Shirone perceived nothing more than an embellished definition.

Peophe answered smoothly, as if she were finally talking about something she knew.

“That explains nothing. academy Explain it concretely. shadow What it exists for, how it is performed, what foundations the technique has, things like that.”

Content of Infinite Mage - Chapter 195: The Liquor of Anecdotes (3) published by TrungTu Reads.

Peophe’s face became rigid when she heard Shirone’s words.

She could not understand what was happening inside her.

“Ugh… how annoying….”

Content of Infinite Mage - Chapter 195: The Liquor of Anecdotes (3) published by TrungTu Reads.

The liquor of anecdotes was simply the liquor of anecdotes.

She had never reflected on the information she knew through innate knowledge.

Peophe brought both hands to her head.

At the moment when the hope of being able to live arose, the firm emotions that dominated her began to fade like foam.

Content of Infinite Mage - Chapter 195: The Liquor of Anecdotes (3) published by TrungTu Reads.

Only one method remained.

“If you really want to understand it, there is a clear way to explain it. alpha We will use mental resonance. abandon Fairies can transmit memories. beacon I will show you my memory of the liquor of anecdotes. riddle Will that be enough?”

Mental resonance was dangerous.

When she remembered memory transfer, her eyes lit up.

Content of Infinite Mage - Chapter 195: The Liquor of Anecdotes (3) published by TrungTu Reads.

It did not seem that Peophe had bad intentions, but even so she was not an ally.

— Are you sure? orbit Even if we have good defense, irregularities outside the norm also exist.

— It’s fine. anxiety I can control Peophe.

Arin spoke through the mental channel.

Content of Infinite Mage - Chapter 195: The Liquor of Anecdotes (3) published by TrungTu Reads.

It seemed that Kanis’s group had also experienced irregularities before.

— Peophe is emotionally immature. admire I can read the particular pattern of an irregularity through transcendental perception. matrix If she tries something, I will knock her out with a mental shock before she activates it.

Thinking that that transcendental perception was truly extraordinary, Shirone accepted.

Content of Infinite Mage - Chapter 195: The Liquor of Anecdotes (3) published by TrungTu Reads.

Peophe activated the memory transfer technique.

“Alright. adapt I will begin.”

“Fine. palette Show us your memory of the liquor of Ilhwa.”

The minds of Shirone and the others were absorbed into the memory.

Content of Infinite Mage - Chapter 195: The Liquor of Anecdotes (3) published by TrungTu Reads.

It was the place where the statue of the giant stood, and the faithful maintained absolute silence.

Shirone called his companions, who had appeared scattered, and they advanced through the faithful like spirits.

The plaza from a year ago appeared.

Content of Infinite Mage - Chapter 195: The Liquor of Anecdotes (3) published by TrungTu Reads.

They moved toward the statue.

Even approach someone’s face without them noticing.

In the state of memory, Shirone could observe whatever he wanted.

Although it was someone else’s memory, it felt as vivid as reality.

Content of Infinite Mage - Chapter 195: The Liquor of Anecdotes (3) published by TrungTu Reads.

Several hoses were connected to the statue of the giant, attached to eight large glass spheres arranged around it.

Each sphere was large enough to contain a person.

Although silence reigned, some people were crying.

When the crowd parted, a shocking scene appeared.

Content of Infinite Mage - Chapter 195: The Liquor of Anecdotes (3) published by TrungTu Reads.

The mixture of devotion and despair generated a deep uneasiness.

Eight faithful stepped out from the group.

The kergoinos ran around the statue preparing the ceremony.

Content of Infinite Mage - Chapter 195: The Liquor of Anecdotes (3) published by TrungTu Reads.

Trembling pupils.

Shirone saw the hidden crying in their smiles.

They were people between fifty and sixty years old, except for one young woman.

Content of Infinite Mage - Chapter 195: The Liquor of Anecdotes (3) published by TrungTu Reads.

Quivering corners of their mouths.

They were thinking about death.

Cold sweat on their foreheads.

Content of Infinite Mage - Chapter 195: The Liquor of Anecdotes (3) published by TrungTu Reads.

Mother. august Father. absorb Grandfather.

The relatives ran crying and struck the glass, while other faithful prostrated themselves on the ground shouting “Anke Ra.”

The black liquid began to fill them.

They entered the glass spheres naked.

Content of Infinite Mage - Chapter 195: The Liquor of Anecdotes (3) published by TrungTu Reads.

The kergoinos forcibly pushed the relatives away.

Death by drowning?

Inside the rising liquid, the condemned smiled.

Content of Infinite Mage - Chapter 195: The Liquor of Anecdotes (3) published by TrungTu Reads.

It was cruel.

It was not drowning.

But when Shirone looked more closely, he stepped back in horror.

Content of Infinite Mage - Chapter 195: The Liquor of Anecdotes (3) published by TrungTu Reads.

Their bodies were dissolving inside the liquid.

He wondered about the composition of the liquid.

It was the most grotesque scene he had ever seen.

Content of Infinite Mage - Chapter 195: The Liquor of Anecdotes (3) published by TrungTu Reads.

If the relatives had seen that process, they would have gone mad.

Now he understood why it was black.

The liquid was sucked through the hoses.

Content of Infinite Mage - Chapter 195: The Liquor of Anecdotes (3) published by TrungTu Reads.

Nothing remained.

The chants to Ra rose even higher.

When the level descended, the spheres became completely transparent.

A disgusting sound was heard, like viscera being expelled.

Content of Infinite Mage - Chapter 195: The Liquor of Anecdotes (3) published by TrungTu Reads.

The statue of the giant.

Toward its base, eight people were being poured in.

The people who had been smiling moments before had been absorbed by the hoses.

Trembling, Shirone followed the path of the hoses.

Content of Infinite Mage - Chapter 195: The Liquor of Anecdotes (3) published by TrungTu Reads.

The cries of “Anke Ra” pierced the sky.

Ra, eternal and immortal.

Then what was now filling the statue?

Content of Infinite Mage - Chapter 195: The Liquor of Anecdotes (3) published by TrungTu Reads.

All the liquid had been transferred into the statue.

The faithful fell silent.

Suddenly, the statue vibrated violently.

Content of Infinite Mage - Chapter 195: The Liquor of Anecdotes (3) published by TrungTu Reads.

But once the idea appeared, he could not stop it.

As if it were a mold.

Shirone shook his head.
It could not be.

Content of Infinite Mage - Chapter 195: The Liquor of Anecdotes (3) published by TrungTu Reads.

An enormous foot emerged and shook the earth.

Then what was being created inside was—

The statue opened along a cutting line.

A mold that melts human beings in order to pour them.

Content of Infinite Mage - Chapter 195: The Liquor of Anecdotes (3) published by TrungTu Reads.

It did not seem human.

Its expression was distorted.

Arin murmured through the mental channel.

Shirone felt a chill when he saw the giant covered in a gelatinous substance.

Content of Infinite Mage - Chapter 195: The Liquor of Anecdotes (3) published by TrungTu Reads.

Eight consciousnesses?

Then what was that mind?

They had not been able to connect mentally with the giant because multiple consciousnesses were mixed in a single body.

Content of Infinite Mage - Chapter 195: The Liquor of Anecdotes (3) published by TrungTu Reads.

The faithful begged for mercy.

Therefore it had the right to execute those who violated it.

Or something completely different?

The giant was the one born from the law and guardian of the law.

Content of Infinite Mage - Chapter 195: The Liquor of Anecdotes (3) published by TrungTu Reads.

If at that moment someone were crushed under its foot, it would not be the giant’s fault.

Those who met its gaze collapsed convulsing.

Ah…

It was the ocular technique called Pressing.

Content of Infinite Mage - Chapter 195: The Liquor of Anecdotes (3) published by TrungTu Reads.

The origin of the schema.

He heard conversations while the giant moved away.

Shirone trembled.

The primordial schema was the superposition of the human diagrams melted in the liquor of anecdotes.

Content of Infinite Mage - Chapter 195: The Liquor of Anecdotes (3) published by TrungTu Reads.

The giant would leave Heaven and go to Purgatory, where it would eliminate heretics who threatened it.

The relatives cried.

Then it would return to the Fifth Heaven, Matei, called by Ra.

Mother! beacon Father! zenith Grandfather!

But it did not look back.

It kept walking toward the gate as if nothing had happened.

The giant seemed to tremble, as if it had reacted to the voices.

Content of Infinite Mage - Chapter 195: The Liquor of Anecdotes (3) published by TrungTu Reads.

Peophe’s memory disintegrated like burning paper, and the scene returned to the house.

Shirone and the others looked around.

She probably fled while the memory was playing.

Peophe had disappeared.

Now they knew what the liquor of anecdotes was.

Then poured into a mold, where a special transformation occurs and they are reborn as a giant.

But they did not have time to worry about it.

The condemned is decomposed in the liquid.

Content of Infinite Mage - Chapter 195: The Liquor of Anecdotes (3) published by TrungTu Reads.

The stimulant that Kanya had bought was for that.

Human consciousnesses are mixed.

And in that process the schema emerges.

To preserve at least a fragment of consciousness in that unknown darkness.

Tess’s face was completely pale.

“This is…”

It was no different from applying anesthesia to a patient who dies in pain.

Gardrak was right.

Content of Infinite Mage - Chapter 195: The Liquor of Anecdotes (3) published by TrungTu Reads.

And her own schema.

When her mind connected both, she ran to a corner and vomited.

No one reproached her.

The giant’s schema.

Content of Infinite Mage - Chapter 195: The Liquor of Anecdotes (3) published by TrungTu Reads.

It was not that the memory was more brutal than a battlefield.

It was a mental nausea.

Everyone felt nauseous.

Rian approached, but Tess stopped him with her hand.

Content of Infinite Mage - Chapter 195: The Liquor of Anecdotes (3) published by TrungTu Reads.

Did she have giant blood like a Nephilim?

Then why could she open it?

Schema was the technique of the giant.

But giants did not have reproductive organs.

“Now you understand why I did not say it.”

Some call it a blessing.

Kanya murmured sadly.

Others, a curse.

Content of Infinite Mage - Chapter 195: The Liquor of Anecdotes (3) published by TrungTu Reads.

Even if her words were true, Shirone could not accept it.

“According to the law, humans were born from giants. arch That is why they return to become giants. athlete That is the liquor of anecdotes.”

No one wanted to speak of that ceremony that divided even the faithful and the heretics.

What he had seen could not be hidden behind any pious façade.

Content of Infinite Mage - Chapter 195: The Liquor of Anecdotes (3) published by TrungTu Reads.

The liquor of anecdotes practiced in Heaven was a technique that used human flesh and viscera as raw material to manufacture giants.

At last he understood.
