A journey into an infinite dimension

………I'm alive?

You never really died.

Have you ever slept?

……have.

Death is like sleep. No matter what the reason for falling asleep, you will not feel anything after falling asleep.

【Do you reject sleeping? 】

....Won't.

Why do you reject death?

…Because death is scary.

Is it possible that among all those deaths, there are no deaths that are not terrible, or even happy?

......have.

He died surrounded by his descendants.

He died amid the farewells of countless people.

He died after fulfilling his last wish.

[Everyone will die one day. Do you want to die in pain or in happiness? ]

....I don't want to die.

[It's normal. No one wants to die.]

【But you can’t do that.】

So, what will you choose?

....die in happiness.

[So, do you remember why you came here? ]

In order to obtain the power to prevent all tragedies from happening.

[Yes, only when you have power that truly belongs to you can you avoid all tragedies and decide how you will die.]

Therefore, you (I) don’t need to fear death, because you (I) are death itself.

Death....itself...

[Do you still remember the name you gave me? ]

【———Me.】

Yixie——Nami————

......

"..."

Suddenly opening a pair of eyes that were as enchanting as blooming red spider lilies, Jiaye (Xuesaki) looked at the ceiling in front of her, her eyes full of relief and relief at having survived a disaster.

He is still alive.

The eyes can see; the ears can hear; the body can feel touch; and the surrounding environment is no longer so cold and gloomy.

The death that echoed in my mind has disappeared, leaving behind a slightly turbid but very familiar air that is so nostalgic.

The fear has disappeared, the loneliness is gone, the air with the right temperature and humidity has dispelled the coldness in the soul, and the warm sunshine makes people involuntarily understand why countless moths still embrace the burning flame even though they know they will die.

Others cannot understand because they have lived in the sunshine since birth and have never truly understood how cold the darkness is.

Kaya (Yukisaki) didn't understand at first, but now, he understands.

Because the yearning for warmth is the instinct of most living things.

"You've just come back and are already thinking about philosophy? It seems like you don't have much to do."

A teasing voice sounded quietly in his mind, calling back Kaya [Yukisaki]'s gradually drifting thoughts and also making him react.

"Ms. Ge Jiuye, how long did it take me in total?"

Although in his perception, he had experienced countless deaths, the time he had spent had made him completely numb from the repeated deaths.

But in that situation, he had no time to calculate the time and the number of deaths.

[In reality, he was unconscious for 15 minutes. If you convert it to the time it took you from the beginning to the success, it would be 3 minutes in reality.]

Ge Jiuye replied with a faint smile.

[To put it simply, in reality, it took you 3 minutes to succeed, and then the remaining 12 minutes were spent in pure coma.]

Is it only 3 minutes?

She had never expected that everything she had experienced would only take 3 minutes in reality. The huge gap in her expectations made Kaya (Yukisaki) stand there in a daze for a moment.

【Also, why don’t you say hello to the partner who will accompany you for the rest of your life? 】

As if amused by Kaya (Yukisaki)'s reaction, Kakuya spoke with a hint of laughter in her voice.

'partner......'

"...?"

Looking at the girl with black hair and red eyes who slowly appeared beside his bed like a ghost, Kaya (Yukisaki)'s already dazed mind was unable to react for a moment.

Why do I feel like I've seen her somewhere before?

"A little bit, borrowed your original appearance."

As if seeing through Kaya's doubts, the girl spoke calmly.

"Yixie...that's beautiful?"

Listening to the girl's vaguely familiar voice and sensing the inexplicable connection between him and her, a thought suddenly flashed through his mind. Kaya (Yukisaki) looked at the girl blankly and asked uncertainly.

Wait, if you look closely, although the hair and eye colors are different, isn't that what my original body looks like?

“There was no pause.”

A pitch-black sailor suit outlined her beautiful figure, with wide sleeves covering her arms, revealing only her fair shoulders and upper arms. Izanami, with her hip-length night-colored hair, blinked a pair of mysterious eyes that were exactly the same as Kaya (Yukisaki)'s, and corrected calmly.

"You may have many doubts, but you can understand the specifics by searching your memory."

Izanami said softly, lightly touching Kaya (Yukisaki)'s eyebrows with her slender fingers.

As she finished speaking, although he had no such thought, Kaya [Yukisaki] felt that his brain suddenly began to automatically "recall" things, and at the same time, the doubts in his heart were answered in the memories brought up by these memories.

Just as he guessed, Izanami was the one who helped him in that world full of death.

At the same time, she is also his second personality created by the self-protection mechanism of his soul because he could not bear the large number of deaths.

However, before these identities, her original identity was the cursed spirit of death, created by him gathering the negative emotions of all living beings on half of the earth.

As for why these three identities come together at the same time——

This can only be called a miracle.

Based on these memories, Kaya (Yukisaki) also realized that he is no longer ordinary.

"..."

Slowly raising his hand, Jiaye (Xuesaki) looked at the dark purple air dancing on his fingertips, feeling the power contained in it, but there was no sense of reality or excitement in his heart.

Although he gained this power after experiencing countless deaths, he understood it very well.

The real reason he gained this power was not because of his hard work.

"That's not the case. You were the one who decided to do this; you were the one who bore those negative emotions; you were the one who created Izanami. This power was truly earned through your own efforts."

Seeing through Kaye [Yukisaki]'s mentality at the moment, Kakuye smiled slightly and took the initiative to speak.

If you hadn't made this decision; if you couldn't bear the death; if you weren't the one who created Izanami, you wouldn't have been able to gain Izanami's recognition and this power.

"But you were the one who guided me to do these things, weren't you?"

Putting down her hand, Kaya (Yukisaki) looked up at Izanami and said softly in her heart.

"It was you who kept me awake amidst all those deaths."

He knew very well that he was the only one who had exchanged bodies with Jiaye, so if his consciousness was crushed, no one would be able to go to Jiaye's body during the exchange.

At the same time, no one knows whether it will affect the other party if an accident happens to one of them during the body exchange.

So under these conditions, he was very sure that Ge Jiuye would definitely protect him and would not let anything happen to him.

————He never plays a game without confidence.

"During the death experience, I only helped a little, about 5%. The rest was up to you and Izanami, so you can use this power with your head held high."

Waving his hand, Ge Jiuye said nonchalantly.

[Also, if anything happens to you, I can take over Jiaye's body, but I'm just lazy.]

...Although you may be comforting me, I have now begun to doubt this guess.

Kaya (Yukisaki) thought silently.

"Ms. Ge Jiuye, you're just being tsundere."

Izanami, who is connected to Kaya (Yukisaki)'s consciousness and soul, and can even be said to be one with her, can also perceive Kaya (Yukisaki)'s thoughts.

[You're overthinking it. I'm only proud of you, not spoiled.]

Pursing his lips, Ge Jiuye complained.

"Only for Jiaye Junjiao, right?"

"It must be only for Jiaye Junjiao."

The teasing between Kaya (Yukisaki) and Izanami finally irritated Kakuya.

[Go away, quickly complete your follow-up plans and stop bothering me here!]

"He's angry out of shame."

"That's what tsundere is."

The two looked at each other and couldn't help but smile at the same time.

The existence of another self feels really strange.

Kaye [Yukisaki] thought quietly in her heart.

But, it's reassuring and not annoying.

Chapter 285: What is Dimensionality Reduction Attack? (Backward)

[Wow, you actually have the guts to make such a decision? It seems the original owner is even more proud than I thought.]

Listening to Ge Jiuye's explanation of what happened in another world, Jia Ye couldn't help but be amazed.

A person living in an ordinary world can actually have such courage. It turns out that the strength of a person is not just determined by birth.

"Thank you for your hard work, Ge Jiuye. If you hadn't blocked most of the 'death', the original owner would have really died."

Jiaye said softly.

[After all, we don't want your body to be controlled by a psychopath, so we just did it for the sake of convenience.]

With a slight blush on her pretty face, Ge Jiuye hummed softly and said casually.

If Yukisaki and Izanami were here, they would definitely complain, "She's actually such a tsundere."

[Yes, but thank you for your hard work. I will make you a big dinner tonight.]

With a slight smile, Jia Ye said.

[By the way, Ge Jiuye, have you seen the root laws of this world? ]

There is a most fundamental law in every world.

It is not the laws of space, time or other laws that make the world run, but the root that gives birth to a world.

Moreover, this kind of law is often not like other laws, which require a certain level of strength to be encountered. Instead, it is omnipresent in the world and is even directly presented in the open.
