Don't confiscate my citizenship

This is so weird.

But her consciousness was floating in the endless void, like a lone boat drifting in the dead ocean.

"Ah."

Lanqi replied that he was indeed very tired.

the strange thing is.

He should be very tired, but he didn't feel sleepy.

"It's okay, everything will be back to normal when you wake up."

Talia comforted Lanci and talked to him.

As an immortal, she is more resistant to the sense of time.

【After one hour.】

"..."

Talia noticed.

She could sleep, but Lanqi couldn't.

"Lanqi, we must move forward positively at this time, and we will definitely find a way out."

Talia suggested again.

"That's right. Although I don't feel hungry here, I can't just lie down and do nothing."

He tried to open his eyes, but found that in the darkness, there was no difference between opening his eyes and closing them.

I couldn't tell whether I had my eyes open or closed when I was sleeping.

Lanqi no longer wasted time sleeping and walked forward.

The surroundings were so dark, and so thick that it seemed to swallow up his consciousness.

The black color was so absolute, like an insatiable beast that wanted to tear his soul apart and eat it.

Lanqi wanted to call out and shout, but his voice fell on deaf ears and was instantly swallowed up by nothingness.

Here, even sound is a luxury and he can only endure eternal silence in silence.

[A few hours passed.]

I don't know how long it took.

The scenery has hardly changed.

"This... this is nothing to be afraid of."

Talia spoke to Lanqi, her heart already beginning to waver.

There was no exit at all, she slowly realized.

But Lanqi still listened to her and kept walking, looking for the exit that was impossible to exist.

Lanqi seemed to understand this fact better than she did.

I just wanted to make her feel at ease, so I listened to her at this moment, even if it was useless.

If you do nothing, your heart will be as dark as the sky.

"Lanqi, we can chat. Think positively. Lanklos could only imagine his old friend chatting with him at the time, but I am real and I can always be with you."

Talia said to Ranci, trying to be positive.

"Well, I'll just keep going."

No matter where I go, my body will not feel tired or pain, but when I talk about food, I still have an appetite but I don’t feel hungry.

【Maybe a month passed.】

Even if the body is not tired, the mind feels bored.

He didn't move on.

If there is nothing you can do, just talk to Talia.

There are only the two of them in this empty world.

【one year later.】

Lanqi lies on the ground.

Looking at the sky.

He could only look at the endless darkness.

"Is this the punishment for using eternal punishment of immortality on yourself?"

He asked in a whisper.

"Lanqi, we will get out. I will accompany you."

Talia said so.

But she had no idea.

How long will it take?

a hundred years?

A thousand years?

Or ten thousand years? One hundred thousand years?

Even farther and farther, so far that it is impossible to see forever.

For humans, whose life span is only a few decades, this long period of time is beyond their understanding.

【Fifty years have passed.】

"Why does this ridiculous magic exist?"

Talia finally couldn't help but complain.

Decades didn't seem like a long time to Talia.

But even she was dreading the long hours that lay ahead.

She couldn't imagine the despair that Lancros had faced in that dark, lonely space.

"Don't worry, Lanclos made it through, which means it's not that hard."

Lanci said to Thalia.

"you……"

Talia didn't understand since when Lanqi became more optimistic than her.

【Perhaps several hundred years have passed.】

Infinite time continues to pass.

Talia gave up thinking.

She lay on the ground with Ranchi in a ethereal state.

Look at the endless black sky, and then wait quietly for infinity.

She didn't want to do anything anymore.

Lanqi and she gradually stopped talking.

She didn't dare talk to Lanqi either.

I even didn't talk to Lanqi for several months.

She was afraid that Lanqi would be completely broken down during this period of time that even she could not bear.

How long will it take?

It seems like just a drop in the ocean of this endless prison time.

Perhaps this eternal punishment of immortality cannot even be called the “beginning”.

Neither of them had yet to experience the true initial pain.

They are just tiny lives trapped in the dark prison of time.

"Tata, can you tell how long it has been?"

Lanqi’s thoughts came.

He seemed to be able to remain conscious.

But he could neither die nor lose consciousness.

I can only feel every minute and every second.

Understanding what Lanclos was thinking at the time.

“Maybe a few hundred years!”

Talia estimated and immediately answered Lanqi.

She couldn't tell either.

But Lanqi hadn't talked to her for a long time, and now Lanqi was talking to her again, and she was very happy.

"Lanqi, what are you thinking about?"

she asked Ranchi.

"I wonder, if Lanclos had experienced the price of eternal punishment beforehand, would he still use it on himself without hesitation?"

Lan Qi said to himself.

"If you were Lanclos, would you hesitate?"

Talia thought that asking Lanqi would reveal the answer.

"Don't hesitate, you must use it."

Lanqi's answer was as firm as ever.
