To the Ends of the Earth with You

"I'll probably be leaving this place soon."

That brief statement made Sylvia's expression freeze slightly.

Fang Li looked at Sylvia like this, his dark eyes utterly unwavering as he stared straight at her.

"Like last time?"

She was naturally referring to when Fang Li had left this world before.

Fang Li nodded lightly.

"I don't know." Fang Li answered directly. "It could only be a short while, a few months, or maybe, just as you said, a year."

At the very least, from this world's perspective, no matter how long Fang Li was gone, at most a year would pass.

This was also to prevent Main God Envoys from entering and leaving the same world repeatedly, causing massive temporal changes and creating chaos.

For example, situations like returning to the past or traveling into the future—essentially time travel—were avoided by the Main God Space as much as possible, lest logical errors cause the world itself to descend into disorder.

Therefore, unless such powers already existed in that world—such as the Hihi'irokane in the world of Aria of the Scarlet Ammo, which could manipulate the power of time travel and send people across time—the Main God Space itself would avoid temporal crossings.

Thus, once Fang Li left this world and entered it again, due to the differing flow of time, as little as several days and as much as a year would have passed, but it would never exceed that
