Chapter 175: The Day of Rebirth (Part 2)
Kanya: "No. Even if their lifespan ends, divine people of Heaven do not die. They are reborn through the Day of Rebirth."
Shirone: "Then it doesn’t add up. If everyone can live forever, how does the population stay the same?"
Kanya: "The lifespan of divine people is under Ra’s governance. Strict laws calculate the total population’s lifespan, maintaining a fixed number."
Eternal life and population control were incompatible.
In the end, the key lay in the Day of Rebirth.
But like Guardrak, Kanya also avoided explaining it. Whether divine people or heretics, they had their convictions, but the Day of Rebirth was an exception.
Contradiction.
The Day of Rebirth, as Shirone imagined it, was a massive contradiction.
They arrived in Heaven after passing through the Whirlwind Serpent’s valley and the Forest of the Fallen.
The party looked up at the sky.
Compared to the size of the walls, they were mere specks of dust. It was a scale beyond human creation.
