#Episode 149
Ishmael jumped out from behind. He seemed to have more grudge against the inmates than the guards.
Blood swirls around him. He’s a great wizard, I guess. It’s quite interesting.
As he opened his hand, thousands of fire arrows appeared around him.
I’ve seen people make and use hundreds of these, but I’ve never seen anything go into the thousands, unless it’s dragons.
It was interesting.
What crime did he commit to end up here?
He put the cigarette in his mouth again.
He took out a white shirt, a suit, and a pair of shoes from the subspace, emitting smoke.
I took off all the prison uniforms I was wearing and changed into new ones.
I put it on as slowly as I could, but the situation is still not resolved.
I thought it was something like that and started walking.
This is 29CA.
I don’t know the exact number of the prison, but I do know that this is the 29th prison.
Where do I go to get to the collection office?
That was when.
At that moment, one of the guards who had been running away approached me. It was a guard with a familiar face.
He was the guard who personally led me into cell number 99. He hesitated with a look of great surprise when he saw me wearing clothes that were so different from my usual attire.
Just by looking at it, it’s clear that he’s trying to change direction and run away.
It was meaningless.
He just stretched out his hand.
The guard’s body was drawn to my hand like a magnet. Before a second had passed, he was in my hands by the neck.
“See you again. But what was your name…? Karasuma? Charisma?”
“Karasuma… … . More importantly, what the hell are you? What makes you able to remove the ‘chip’? No, before that, how can you summon that much power?”
He tilted his head.
“What difference does it make if you know that?”
“… … .”
“Stop asking questions and just answer. How do I get to the director’s office?”
“… … If you guide me, I will… … .”
“I’ll save you. We’ve become close in the past two days.”
“… … .”
“Okay, let’s make way.”
“… … I want to get a definitive answer… … .”
The brows furrow.
“Oh, you talk too much, Mr. Swap.”
He just threw the guard forward.
“Don’t make me say it twice. Get out of here.”
Eventually, Warden Karasuma began to give directions.

29CA of star #875.
The owner of this place wasn’t human.
It was a spirit.
Ifcalypto, the spirit of fire.
Of course, spirits existed on Earth too.
So it may have been natural for a spirit ranking table to be created.
If you look at the ranking table, spirits are divided into lowest, lower, middle, upper, and highest levels.
But this is only the Earth’s level.
Above the highest rank is ‘king’, and above that is ’emperor’.
Ifcalypto is a royal spirit.
He was in a huge palace, staring blankly at a man who opened the palace door and appeared.
The man was human.
“Hey. What is this? There’s something like this above the prison? It’s a palace, a palace.”
The man walking towards him in a black suit was someone Ifcalypto also knew ‘well’.
Jin Shihou turns his gaze straight ahead.
A huge spirit came into his eyes.
It was about 10 meters tall. Its entire body was on fire, it had four arms and two legs. Its head was burning like a candle, but it did not look human at all.
Jin Shihou asked.
“Are you the director?”
“Yes.”
Jin Shihou was a little surprised by those words.
“Isn’t that Korean? What is this? Why are there so many people who can speak Korean?”
“I never thought I would see you like this.”
Jin Shihou looked puzzled.
“Do you know me?”
“I know. Because I’ve seen it many times through the eyes of the person I’ve marked as the incarnation.”
Jin Shihou did not understand what was being said. However, he understood a lot from Ifcalypto’s subsequent words.
“I am Ifcalypto, the unquenchable flame.”
It’s my first time hearing the name, but I’ve heard [The Unquenchable Flame] many times.

Among the constellations that were watching Hong Hyun, there was a name like that.
“Oh, you’re one of them. That makes the story a little easier. Well, I have to go to a place called Star #12. Do you know where the moving stone is that’s going to take me there?”
“embrace.”
“Oh, this is really making things easier. Give me that.”
Ifcalypto shook his head.
“That can’t be.”
“why?”
“Because there is no reason to give it to me.”
Jin Shihou scratched his chin.
“Isn’t there any?”
“No. You and I are not friends, and although I have some connection with the character Hong Hyun from #2403, it’s not like I’ve made Hong Hyun my incarnation. Above all, this is the biggest reason, aren’t you aiming for the Six Paths Immortal?”
I didn’t understand anything else, but this part was even harder to understand.
“That guy called the Six Paths Sage, I don’t know him very well, but I think I know what he’s trying to do. He seems to be after the ascended beings, and you’re the guard of the prison that the ascended beings created. Something doesn’t add up.”
Ifcalypto shook his head.
“I don’t care what the Six Paths Sage intends to do. We in the spirit world have seen and read about the things he has done, his power, and the effects his accomplishments have had on the world. The Six Paths Sage is an object of respect to the spirits. I don’t care what he intends to do. A fight between ascenders is a fight between ascenders. I only follow the ascenders’ orders. Do you understand?”
Jin Shihou caught something strange in Ifcalypto’s words.
“He, I heard from the Heavenly Demon below that there are eight ascenders.”
“so?”
“I think there were originally nine people?”
“Yes.”
“The Six Paths of Destiny was an ascendant. One of the rulers of the nine heavens fell away and targeted the ascendants of other nine heavens… … . Interesting.”
“… … .”
“Okay, let’s get this straight. I know where the moving stone to Star #12 is, but I don’t want to tell you or give it to you.”
“Yes.”
“So what should I do from now on?”
“You have two choices. First, go back to star #2403. If you don’t like that, second, go back to prison.”
I ended up laughing.
“Let’s do it a third time.”
“The third?”
“How about I make you open your mouth after I’ve beaten you to death and then move on to Star #12?”
“I don’t like it.”
“I like it.”
Jin Shihou kicked the seat.
Even before his body touched Ifcalypto’s body.
Jieeeeeeing-!!
A huge number of flashes of light descend from the sky.
Jin Shihou’s body was thrown out. Jin Shihou, who had spun around in the air several times, landed on the ground. Ifcalypto spoke to Jin Shihou.
“Do you think there has never been a case like this on Star #875?”
It was mysterious.
Ifcalypto raises his four arms towards the sky, and a huge flash of light is now falling upon the entire palace.
The scenes are like something out of a fantasy novel, and can only be seen on Earth in videos or CG.
Ifcalypto continued speaking.
“I remember more than ten ‘rebellions’ at 29CA. How many of those ten ‘rebellions’ were successful?”
Jin Shihou said nothing.
“If you look at the entire star #875, not just 29CA, there have been hundreds of rebellions. Some people, like you, came without the ‘chip’ in their bodies, others had their chips removed inside the prison, and there were really many. Some were stronger than I am now. The ‘Emperor’ of #122 down there was one of those cases. So why did it fail?”
“I don’t know.”
“Because we are prepared.”
Ifcalypto pointed to the flashes with his hand. These were flashes, but now they were almost like pillars of light.
“There once was a man who was called a scientist from the future.”
“so?”
“His technological prowess far surpassed all previous generations. He was a genius among geniuses. His powers were not even those of a normal master, let alone a transcendent one, but his brains were real. Combining science, technology, and the ability to escape, he achieved something no one had ever done before. Unusually, the system gave him the nickname [Scientist Who Reveals the Future].”
“… … .”
“Those pillars of light are pillars created by [the scientist who illuminates the future]. They suppress the ecstasy of a specific target, hinder their movements, and are then eliminated. Of all the weapons I know, ‘that’ is the most useful weapon when dealing with strong people who have reached the ecstasy state. I guess I should consider it a weapon for great ecstasy.”
Ifcalypto clasped his four hands together. A huge flame rose up around his body.
“It’s simple. Your ecstasy is suppressed in this space right now, and those pillars of light will attack you whenever you move.”
Ifcalypto stretched out his four hands.
[The wine of the soul-changing flame.]
[Ifcalypto’s Wrath.]
A giant fireball flies towards Jin Shihou.
Just as Jin Shihou was about to react, the single fireball split in midair. In an instant, dozens, hundreds, and thousands.
In less than a second, a fireball splits into thousands of pieces and crashes down on Jin Shihou.
He kicked the seat.
Jin Shihou’s body stretched out. Each of the split fireballs had considerable power compressed into it. It was not to be ignored.
Lower your head, and as soon as your legs touch the ground, shift your body balance and rotate.
I avoided it as much as possible.
A few fireballs grazed my side, but I was okay. The biggest problem was this.
Jiiing-!!
The pillars of light shining down on the outskirts of the palace, five pillars to be exact, change direction and point towards Jin Shihou.
My brow furrows. Speed? It was fast. Power? Needless to say. That pillar of light is much more threatening than the fireball I was just dodging.
It is at least as powerful as the combined power of Cheonma Ju Seong-cheol. I am not talking about the combined power of five pillars of light, but the power of a single pillar of light.
He stretched out his right hand.
[The Seven Bonds of the Holy Fire of the White Lotus Sect.]
[Chapter 5: Changes, Sun and Moon Erosion.]
The magic energy gathers in front of your hand. It soon becomes a huge sphere. A white sphere.
Four flashes of light are aimed at it.
That was it. I couldn’t hold out any longer.
Kwaaaaaaaang-!!
The giant sphere exploded. And the remaining light stretched out towards Jin Shi-hoo. He did not withdraw his right hand, which was outstretched with a frown. The light reached the palm of his right hand.
Gulp, Jin Shihou’s body was pushed away. The light splitting from his outstretched hand completely destroyed Jin Shihou’s back.
Jin Shihou’s brow furrows.
I was wondering what they meant when they said they were suppressing the ecstasy, but I just felt it for sure.
It got weaker.
I was curious about the principle. That was when.
