A journey into an infinite dimension

“I was really just playing games.”

After all, the rooms were right across from each other, so it was natural that Kaguya would find out if the lights were not turned off in the middle of the night.

However, the excuse he used at the time was that he stayed up late to play games, and it took him a lot of effort to successfully trick Kaguya into becoming interested in the game he was playing.

Where did he get the game? Even if he downloaded it very quickly, it would be a brand new game progress. Wouldn't that be like exposing himself?

Although he was not doing anything shameful and it would not matter if it was exposed, Jiaye's intuition told him that if Kaguya knew that he was staying up late to prepare teaching plans and learn to be a good teacher, then he might end up in tragedy.

Although he didn't know why the tragedy happened, Jiaye, who always trusted his intuition, chose to conceal it.

"Then, the evidence."

Kaguya keenly noticed Kaya's brief and unusual silence, and continued to press Kaya without giving in.

"Speaking of which, Kaguya, what would you like for dinner?"

With a light cough, Jia Ye, who had no way of producing any evidence, had no choice but to use his last trick.

“Series A.”

Upon hearing this, Kaguya gave up worrying about it and answered without hesitation.

However, the dinner menu she gave would confuse those who were not aware of it.

What is A series food?

However, for Kaguya, who had devised this guess together with Kaguya, he could perfectly understand the meaning of this word.

"What about the height-increasing menu? Got it."

With a slight smile, Kaguya successfully changed the subject while sighing in his heart about Kaguya's obsession with height, and responded.

Girls always care about their figure. It is better to say that except for a few girls, basically all women, regardless of age, will want to maintain a perfect figure.

And Kaguya also cares about her height in addition to her normal range of concerns.

Because her height, it is said that she has not grown since elementary school...

"...Are you complaining about my height in your mind?"

Her eyes suddenly turned cold, and Kaguya stared at Kaya suspiciously, her little hands unconsciously clenching and unclenching, as if reflecting her current mood.

Why can you guess so accurately?

Hearing this, Jia Ye couldn't help but complain in his heart.

"No, I'm just thinking about how to fulfill your wish."

Of course, he didn't have the courage to say this in reality.

"...I'm going back to my room to read and won't come out until dinner time."

A faint blush flashed across her cheeks, Kaguya turned her face away, and after saying this, she stood up and left the living room.

"The air conditioning isn't warm enough?"

Confused about Kaguya's situation, Jiaye subconsciously glanced at the air conditioner remote control at hand.

Is this the most suitable temperature for the human body, or is it not enough?

Unable to figure out the reality, Jia Ye stopped worrying about it and started preparing dinner.

[Speaking of which, Jiaye, when are you planning to take over that cheap power? ]

While preparing dinner, Ge Jiuye's voice quietly sounded in Jiaye's consciousness.

[There's no rush, he won't run away anyway.]

The movements of his hands were not affected at all, Jia Ye said indifferently.

"Tonight I plan to find a place to test the power of the ring. If there's still time, I'll take a look at the candidates for the Guardian."

[I was complaining about being bored before, but now I feel like I'm getting busy.]

Putting down the comic, Ge Jiuye teased with a smile.

There's nothing wrong with being busy.

In response, Jia Ye just smiled.

How was today's dinner? I've tried to improve the recipe, and I'm waiting for your opinion.

[No wonder, I felt like the taste was different today, but I couldn't tell what it was.]

Hearing this, Ge Jiuye suddenly understood.

[As for the taste, I feel it's about the same as before. It's not better, nor worse. It's just a different style at best.]

"Really? Then let's start with the seasoning next time."

Even though he was distracted by thinking about the recipe in his mind, Jiaye's movements were still not affected at all. It was really admirable and admirable.

Chapter 288 Title: Oh Oh Oh It’s on Fire!!!

In the peaceful daily life, time gradually came to midnight when the calendar had changed.

In an uninhabited suburb far away from the bustling city, a young man with a pair of flaming eyes that seemed to be swaying with some kind of brilliant light came here quietly.

"We should be almost there by now, just be careful to control our movements."

Looking up at the few sparse stars above his head and the crescent moon that was faintly visible in the clouds, Jia Ye smiled slightly, then put down the suitcase, gently took out a ring carved with ocean-like patterns from his arms, and put it on the middle finger of his left hand.

After all, there is already a ring on my right hand.

Perhaps it was just a coincidence, the size of the ring perfectly matched the width of Jiaye's knuckles, neither loose nor tight, as if it was made according to his fingers.

"The foundation for lighting a flame is strong faith and determination. The weight of faith is the intensity of the flame, right?"

Recalling the information contained in that document, which included not only the information about the Guardian candidates but also the additional information about the ring and the power called "Flame of Death", Jiaye stared at the Sea Tiamat Ring between his fingers and clenched his fists slightly.

He didn't have any particularly great beliefs.

His only wish is that those close to him will not be harmed.

The prerequisite for realizing this wish is unparalleled power.

Perhaps, if we live a peaceful and low-key life, we can also achieve this wish.

However, this is equivalent to pinning your hopes on others.

I hope that others will not want to harm those around me, and that disaster will not suddenly strike...

This is the stupidest choice.

Because, if you don't have enough strength, then when a crisis suddenly strikes, you can do nothing but pray, lament, beg, and cry.

Jia Ye knew very well that this kind of thinking was just the result of his paranoia.

But he also knew that this possibility was by no means zero.

Otherwise, he would not have had to leave his hometown and go to the clock tower in faraway England for further studies.

If no one had wanted to take action against the Fourth Law and Hong, he could have stayed with his father and Zero and grown up with Zero.

The reason for all this was that he was too weak at that time.

If he was able to fight his enemies; if he was so powerful that no one dared to attack him; if—

From then on, he knew.

If you want to truly gain a foothold in the world, strength is absolutely essential.

Knowledge is power, so he acquired knowledge and learning above the doctoral level through self-study; strength is power, so he became the "Grandmaster" among human magicians in his original world, summoned the true form of the Heroic Spirit, Meruxin, and now has become a strong man in the third tier below the "Strongest".

But his belief was never pure power.

His true belief is to gain strength and then protect the people important to him.

For this, he is willing to endure the loneliness and long years of leaving his lover and wandering alone between different worlds.

This is his determination and belief.

Ding---

"Ok?"

The sudden burst of light in the dim environment brought Jia Ye back to his senses. He stared at the deep blue flame dancing on the ring on his finger. For a moment, he seemed to see a vast ocean that gave birth to all things.

He knew that this was the core of Tiamat's ring, the sea flame that gave birth to all things, nourished all things, and embraced all things, like the greatest and most loving mother.

It is also a flame that is ignited by his belief and symbolizes his determination.

....But isn't it said that the weight of belief is the intensity of the flame?

Although the 'quality' of this flame is huge, isn't the 'quantity' a bit too small?

Looking at the flame that was about the size of a ping-pong ball, Jia Ye, who always felt that he was being underestimated, subconsciously developed a stronger belief.

No matter who it is, no one can stop me!

boom! !

The next moment, with more 'firewood', the originally deep and peaceful sea flames suddenly surged, and at the same time, the light of the ocean also illuminated the entire suburban woods and reached the sky.

jingle---

His whole body was enveloped in the surging flames of the vast ocean, and he was unaware of what was happening outside. Jia Ye's attention was completely attracted by the ring in his hand.

I saw that under the calcination of the sea flame, the ring-shaped sea ring suddenly began to melt gradually. At the same time, all the sea flames outside the body also poured into the changing sea ring as if being swallowed by a whale, as if serving as a driving force to promote the changes of the sea ring.

Realizing this problem, although he didn't know what the current situation of the Sea Ring was, Jia Ye continued to recall his past and continued to increase the output of the Sea Flame.

Jia Ye output as much flames as the sea ring absorbed. For a moment, as one side absorbed and the other side replenished, the overall mass of the flames reflected on the outside did not weaken at all, and even had a tendency to gradually increase.

This means that the flame ignited by Jiaye's determination has exceeded the speed at which the ring can absorb it.

【By the way, what would happen if we add "infinity"? 】

Silently acting as a 'generator', Jia Ye looked at the sea ring that had melted into liquid and was changing in an orderly manner, and suddenly a flash of inspiration came to his mind.

The noise will get louder.

While filming with a camera Jiaye who was bathing in the flames of the deep and vast ocean at this moment, his handsome face, which was more serious and resolute than usual because he was refining his determination, was illuminated by the glow of the flames. Coupled with his already extraordinary temperament and a pair of bright flaming eyes, he looked extremely handsome and charming overall, Ge Jiuye took over the conversation and complained.

[It also won't speed up the process, so we recommend against doing this.]

「Is that so? Then forget it... Wait, it becomes 'bigger'? 」

Suddenly realizing a certain word in Ge Jiuye's words, Jia Ye was stunned for a moment.

【Gaya, you haven't realized it yet. 】

Blinking, Ge Jiuye said in surprise.

Think about it, in the dark suburbs at night, a ball of light suddenly appears. Wouldn't that make a small noise?

【Well......】

Turning his head and looking around, although he was inside the flame, Jiaye could still calculate the impact on the surroundings by the brightness of the flame, and fell into silence.

It’s really bright.

Although it is probably not visible in the city, if someone passes by a suburban road, they will still find it.

If it were brighter, it might even be visible in the city.

Click————

Just as Jia Ye was secretly reflecting on his mistake, the changes in the ring finally came to an end under the impetus of the endless sea flames.

The suitcase that was originally placed at Jiaye's feet and then fell not far away due to the sudden outbreak of the sea flame suddenly opened automatically, and then a dark blue box with the same color as the sea flame slowly flew out of it and rushed straight towards Jiaye, finally breaking through the sea flame and falling on the sea ring that was absorbing the flame.

The moment the box came into contact with the sea ring, which had completely turned into liquid and seemed to be undergoing a "shaping" process, the entire box suddenly melted and merged into the sea ring, and the overall volume of the sea ring also increased sharply.

[...The box is gone just like that?]

Looking at the disappeared box with a confused look on his face, if this were in the world of comics, then Jiaye's head would definitely be filled with countless little question marks at this moment.

Where is the box? Such a big box?

He hasn't even used it yet!

"Well, the box just merged with the ring. It didn't disappear, nor was it sacrificed."

Looking at Jiaye, whose brows were slightly furrowed and whose expression seemed a little lost and depressed, like a child whose toy was taken away, Ge Jiuye silently pinched the bridge of his nose to stop the sudden nosebleed, and comforted him in an unchanged voice.
