    Chapter Index

    [Your plan worked]

    [Arrangement to hide your breath so the gods can’t pinpoint your location in the first place]

    [Chaos around the world, distracting the gods as a result]

    [After the gods had determined that the power of the realm was in the city of Layash, you had taken the witch far away and disappeared completely from the search of the gods.]

    [You were cautious, you were vigilant, you hid for a long time with the witch, and you didn’t come out of hiding until a month later]

    [You look up to the sky and realize that the gods have blocked the laws even more tightly, and even if you have elemental perception, it’s still hard to see the true meaning of the elements]

    [You’re sorry that this means that the already scarce possibility of becoming a god is even more infinitely convergent to zero thereafter]

    [The only thing that comforts you is that the Witch’s power of equilibrium is significantly higher than that of the gods, and her cultivation hasn’t suffered too much, the Witch is progressing at a speed you can’t comprehend]

    [Leaving the cache and entering the nearest city]

    [You find that all the divine churches are on the move, it seems to be from the gods that they are searching for the existence of all elemental mages]

    [You realize that your trip with Krysia is coming to an end.]

    [If you walk the world as you have done, you will one day attract the attention of the Faithful and the gods.]

    In the 39th year of the simulation, you’re 53 and Krysia is 45.

    [You take Krysia’s hand and return to Ellenson City on the north side of the world, where after decades of reconstruction, what was once a ruin is once again being built into a thriving city]

    [Even though the city doesn’t look the same, even though the people you know are no longer the same]

    [But you still have a soft spot for this place]

    [You have decided to live in seclusion as a means of hiding from the mad dogs of the gods and spend the rest of your life here.]

    Decades of upheaval.

    Decades of bouncing around.

    After advancing to Holy Domain Magician, it was finally completely finalized.

    Ellenson City, the place where it all began, was chosen by the Hsu system as the final place to wrap things up.

    He took Krysia with him, faked his identity as an ordinary person, and settled in a house near the center of the city, with a courtyard all to himself, as before.

    The Witch’s eternal countenance no longer needs to worry about being seen through.

    The power of the domain was very powerful, and the current Xu system could use the domain’s life attribute and death attribute to mold Krysia’s appearance and scent for normal aging.

    This kind of trick couldn’t fool the gods, but it was still more than enough to shield an ordinary mage’s mental perception.

    “Krysia, we’re going to live here from now on.”

    “Yes, Mentor.”

    “It might get a little boring, no problem?”

    “No, Mentor.”

    “Let’s go in, then.”

    “Okay, Mentor.”

    Kryssa’s face was immaculate as she stepped into the new home, closely followed by the Xu system.

    The Witch was still young, and Ellenson was still Ellenson, but the courtyard rebuilt in ruins was no longer the same as the original, and the sun’s decline was inevitable.

    The warmth of the sun was fading, making it difficult to even maintain its own temperature.

    ……

    In the forty-first year of the simulation, you are 55 years old and Krysia is 47.

    [Two years have passed since you settled in Ellenson City, during which time the Church of God is still frantically searching for Elemental Mages]

    [You’re calm and unperturbed]

    What does searching for an Elemental Mage have to do with you, a Sanctuary Magician?

    [Does it matter? Obviously, it doesn’t.

    [This year, under your careful teaching, Krysia also controlled the true meaning of the realm, and the power of equilibrium came into play once again, and the witch broke through the blockade of the gods and was promoted to a Holy Magic Mentor, without causing any fluctuations]

    [You exclaim again: “My disciple Krysia is worthy of the gods.”]

    ……

    In the forty-sixth year of the simulation, you’re 60 years old and Krysia is 52.

    [Your old face is more pronounced, but you have a good, overpowering spirituality that often makes people forget that you are aging]

    [You continue to use mortal wisdom every year, and so acquiring a great deal of new knowledge, you have taught yourself to create the Book of Forbidden Spells]

    [Your earth attribute forbidden spell is upgraded ……]

    [Your wind banning spell has been upgraded ……]

    [Your lightning ban spell has been upgraded ……]

    [You passed the book of forbidden spells to Krysia, who took it seriously and, under your tutelage, began to learn powerful forbidden spells she had never been exposed to before]

    ……

    [In the forty-eighth year of the simulation, you’re 62 and Krysia is 54.]

    [Your training program for magical girls seems to have failed.]

    [Decades of mending have not yet restored the emotions of the witch, and you have not yet seen the witch’s laughter, nor the witch’s tears]

    [You’re alone and silent for a long time, and you finally give up on emotional replenishment]

    [The Witch has a life of her own, and perhaps it’s a good thing for her not to have emotions]

    [The long life of seclusion made you feel so bored that you tried to sense the laws and take the road to becoming a god, but unfortunately, you failed]

    [Too tight a blockade prevents you from glimpsing the workings of the world’s nature, which means that you can’t gain more knowledge, and the truths needed to become a god, and you can’t see your way forward]

    “Ultimately ……”

    “It still doesn’t work.”

    Ellenson City, in the den of the new courtyard.

    The 62-year-old Xu system lying on his back, between the eyes closed, can already see deep folds, as well as a strong tiredness.

    The wear and tear that stems from time becomes more of a factor.

    The current Hsu system.

    Even without going through Krysia’s eyes, she could clearly feel the decay and powerlessness inside her body, spreading little by little throughout her body.

    That was why System Xu had tried to impact the Demigods.

    It was just a pity that the road ahead had been cut off and he had no viable way to ascend to God.

    On the contrary, Krysia’s side, thanks to the marvelous balance of disorder and order, was still gaining strength to this day, as if the elements of the world were actively getting close to her.

    “Never mind, after all, this outcome was expected.”

    “Instead of complaining about the relentlessness of the gods’ methods, we should teach Krysia more in these last hours.”

    The Xu system covered its mouth and coughed a few times.

    The voice was muffled.

    He was still in good health, but due to the limitations of mortal wisdom, all of his organs had begun to age to varying degrees.

    Exactly how long he could live, Xu System himself couldn’t say.

    In the 49th year of the simulation, you’re 63 and Krysia is 55.

    [You’ve discovered the Witch’s abnormality.]

    [Originally, the witch would only maintain the aging disguise when she went out, but for some reason, lately, even at home, she refuses to take off this disguise]

    [You met Krysia’s eyes and understood something in silence]

    [You smile helplessly, reach out your palm, rough from aging, and stroke the top of the witch’s head like you used to, claiming to like 17-year-old witches because they’re pretty that way.]

    [The witch’s body trembles slightly, and her lifeless eyes reflect your aging posture, and eventually, she changes back to her original form that you like]
