Chapter 138: Chapter 111 Obtaining Two Major Magic Sources and the Black Witch’s Dragon Town (4649)_1

With the image shattered, Ivita’s attention returned to the world of the Fire Giants.

He took a gentle breath and asked, "Can I ask what happens to humans when they die under normal circumstances?"

From within the flames, Melissa responded without emotion, "The souls of those who pass away outside The Fire of Law enter different realms of the afterlife."

"But something is certainly taken away after death, which is one of the reasons why magic cannot revive people. Only a small part of the soul can enter these afterlife worlds."

"For instance, the souls of those who study black magic may be rejected by the Lord of All Things and may enter the dark domain of the Dark Queen, the largest known concentration of black magic. The time and space there are chaotic since it is a realm that existed before the holy light rose."

"Some who often lie in life may be summoned by the Black Witch upon their death, and enter Dragon Town."

Ivita raised his eyebrows, wondering if the Black Witch was mentioned because of his known association with her.

Was the Black Witch living in Dragon Town?

What does she have to do with dragons?

Melissa said, "The Black Witch can transform into a world-ending Black Dragon. She is the strongest Dragon Witch in the world, but when I knew her, she wasn’t fond of flying, even in dragon form, so she hired a man turned into a raven to be her eyes and ears."

"There are many different afterlife realms in this world, divided among different populations. Some smaller afterlife worlds are divided by region."

"For example, the creatures that die near the Elf Forest are drawn into the woods by the dark phoenix. They become spirits wandering the forest. It’s said that these spirits take on ten thousand different forms, from fungi on the ground to flowers, trees, birds in the sky, all becoming elves."

"Some places are only accessible to specific races after their death, like the garden of the Black Fairy where elves go."

"Of course, they might also end up in the garden of the White Fairy."

"Judge Ivita, is this information enough? There are many other afterlife worlds in this world that even I don’t know about."

"But the most common is for humans to reach the Divine Kingdom of the God of All Things after death, where God’s judge will choose suitable souls to enter the Divine Kingdom, giving them another chance to be human. Others might go to the Eternal Punishment Land until the day their sentence is served."

Ivita scratched his head, the afterlife provided by the True God of the Church sounded like a hybrid of heaven in Christianity and Hell in Buddhism.

So, there is judgment after death, as well as reincarnation, with concepts of both divine kingdoms and being reborn as a human."

But, he wondered, could he trust these things?

"I see," Ivita said, lowering his head. "So even if a person doesn’t die by The Fire of Law, there are other institutions and places to judge him."

"So I have another question, how much damage has this man caused four hundred years ago?"

Melissa looked at Ivita, wondering why he was asking this. "He didn’t kill too many people. Compared to those who died in wars, the ones he killed due to his low intelligence were negligible."

"In that era, there were countless people who wanted to extinguish the fire, led by the wicked Pan God. These people had somehow fallen into a state of despair, foolishly believing that life had lost its meaning, that human governance had no meaning, and that the Thousand-Year Fire itself was a curse."

"There were many who betrayed the fire back then. It’s just that their status and level of profession didn’t afford them the ability to do it. But there were indeed many people who wanted to extinguish the fire and acted on it under Pan’s influence, and he was one of them."

"But he was different than the others, he was a member of the Fire Protection Family."

"So, his main crime was betraying the duty of the Fire Protection Family."

"Among all the betrayals, his crime was the worst. Others can just be killed by people or be convicted by the worldly government, but this one must suffer eternally, becoming a Fire Demon."

"But he didn’t succeed in extinguishing the fire, he was too weak, he could do nothing, his mind was too weak."

Ivita nodded.

That’s how it was.

The five tribal chiefs did swear to protect the Thousand-Year Fire forever.

Ivita said, "After the five tribal chiefs made their vow, did they or their descendants receive any rewards from the Thousand-Year Fire?"

Melissa answered impassively, "If you’re asking if the Thousand-Year Fire rewarded them in any special way, the answer is no. The act of guarding the flame of human civilization in the Ambros region was entirely voluntary. Their noble souls and great vows demonstrate why human civilization can uphold universal justice multiple times."

"Becoming the finest race."

"However, the families of these five tribal chiefs have become the wealthy clans in Ambros for various reasons, but the betrayer’s family, because of his betrayal, has declined and is now just an ordinary family among the masses."
