Illimitable Until Death

Chapter 786: IUD-Chapter 782 Return After a Year

When Fang Li opened his eyes, he found himself staring at the familiar lawn of his home.

“Am I back?” he whispered to himself, casually checking the prompt records from the Main God’s Dimension.

“Serial Number 11273 applied for early departure from Personal World. The entry time into the world of Hidan’s Aria has not yet arrived. During the rest period in the Main God’s Dimension, you can apply to re-enter the Personal World at any time until the designated time ends.”

As he thought it over, Fang Li realized that his time in the Hidan’s Aria world hadn’t even reached one-tenth of what he had anticipated.

Given the 1:10 time ratio, he had actually only been away from the Main God’s Dimension for less than half a day.

“In other words, I can still count my rest time in the Main God’s Dimension as ten days, right?”

Well, to be precise, it should be less than ten days.

“Calculating like this, I really haven’t achieved my original goal,” he mused, a hint of amusement creeping in.

Fang Li had entered the Personal World on Ryougi Shiki’s suggestion, hoping to take a rare break and truly relax.

Unfortunately, in the Hidan’s Aria world, he hadn’t rested at all.

He had been constantly busy clashing with various beings, leading a life of toil, just like before.

Of course, this life of toil had only begun after he entered the Main God’s Dimension.

Before that, Fang Li had been a hikikomori, enjoying his days of relaxation except for school.

“However, in this way, the matters in the Hidan’s Aria world can be considered to have reached a conclusion.”

Previously, he had left without any farewells, indirectly causing various issues.

That was why he had intended to rest this time and re-enter the Hidan’s Aria world.

Now, although he hadn’t achieved his goal of rest, at least this time it wasn’t a sudden departure; it was a proper conclusion.

Moreover, he still had plenty of remaining rest time in the Main God’s Dimension.

Since that’s the case…

A young girl’s image suddenly flashed in Fang Li’s mind, causing him to smile.

He lifted his gaze to the sky and called out, “Apply to enter the Personal World.”

With so much remaining rest time, Fang Li had every reason to return.

Return to the world where someone incredibly important awaited him.

The notification sound from the Main God’s Dimension began to chime.

“Serial Number 11273 applies to enter Personal World. Starting allocation.”

“Current Personal Worlds: Hidan’s Aria, Asterisk War: City Asterisk, Another World Life Starting from Zero, Tsukihime.”

“Please select the Personal World to enter.”

As the system notification faded from his mind, he made his choice without a moment’s hesitation.

“Asterisk War: City Asterisk.”

As soon as he finished speaking, the system’s notification rang out promptly.

“Personal World selected. The selected Personal World is Asterisk War: City Asterisk. Do you confirm?”

“Yes.”

“Selection successful. The remaining time in the Main God’s Dimension is ten days. Entering this world at a 1:10 time ratio requires 20,000 Exchange Points. Do you wish to pay?”

“Yes.”

“Payment successful. After entering this Personal World, you will not be able to trigger any Quests, whether Main Quest, Side Quest, or Hidden Quest. Other Divine Envoys will also be unable to enter this Personal World. When the designated time is reached, if you wish to continue staying, you will need to pay an additional amount of Exchange Points.”

The familiar notification sound echoed once more.

Shortly after, in Fang Li’s personal residence, his figure vanished into thin air.

…

“Buzz…”

Just as the legendary dizziness began to subside, Fang Li felt a vibration at his waist.

Momentarily taken aback, he quickly realized what it was.

He reached for the pure white activation device strapped to his lower back and smiled.

“Is it just because I came back that you’re so excited?”

The vibration, of course, came from Bo Xie.

At that moment, it seemed Bo Xie sensed it had returned to a familiar world and reacted unexpectedly.

“I always thought you were a cold guy, having no feelings other than your obsession with cleanliness. Now it seems you’re just cold on the outside, warm on the inside, right?”

Saying something that would annoy Bo Xie, Fang Li gently stroked the pure white activation body until it calmed down before finally opening his eyes.

The noise of the bustling street flooded into his ears almost simultaneously.

He was standing right in the middle of a lively street.

Pedestrians passed by him, engaging in conversations that drifted to his ears.

“Have you bought tickets for the ‘Gryphon Festa’ yet?”

“Don’t even mention it, the tickets are basically sold out. I’m still waiting in line online.”

“Is that true? We bought our tickets a month in advance and still haven’t gotten through?”

“That’s the most popular event in the world. Isn’t it always like that?”

“True enough.”

Hearing such conversations, Fang Li was somewhat surprised.

“So it’s already close to the start of the ‘Gryphon Festa’?”

—’Phoenix Festa’.

—’Gryphon Festa’.

—’Dragon Festa’.

These three festivals alternate every three years, with one taking place each year.

Under the manipulation of the six major Integrated Enterprise Foundations, they have long become the most notable and popular mega-events in the world.

When Fang Li left, it was not long after the ‘Phoenix Festa’ had just concluded.

Now, has it really already reached the time for the ‘Gryphon Festa’ to begin?

“It seems my departure from this world wasn’t just for three months.”

Saying this, Fang Li took out his Black Ring and temporarily put it on.

He retrieved the terminal he used in this world.

After turning on the terminal, Fang Li extended his hand, opened a space window in front of him, and checked the time.

As expected, if he were to wait another month, it would be exactly one year since the end of the ‘Phoenix Festa’ when he left.

In other words, Fang Li had been gone for almost a year.

Now that the ‘Gryphon Festa’ had started, there were hot topics all over the internet related to it.

However, Fang Li only glanced at these posts before searching for another trending topic.
