Chapter 1937

Just then, Sawamura Sayuri pushed the door open and saw Eriri rolling around on the bed.

"Mom?"

Eriri looked back, saw Sayuri enter, and felt speechless, "Mom, you didn't even knock!"

This was just too much of an invasion of privacy!

"Could it be that Eriri is doing something bad?" Sawamura Sayuri's lips curled slightly, revealing an inexplicable smile, her face full of curiosity.

Eriri shouted: "No way, Mom, what are you talking about!"

"Even if you were, it wouldn't matter, you've grown up now!" Sawamura Sayuri covered her mouth and chuckled, "By the way, I've seen you acting distracted these past few days, giggling to yourself. Could it be that you've found a boyfriend? Is it that boy, Tomoya?"

"I'm telling you now, make sure to use protection. I don't want to be a grandmother at such a young age."

"Mom, what are you saying!" Eriri's face turned bright red, like a cooked shrimp, "I don't have a boyfriend."

"You don't?"

Sawamura Sayuri was very surprised.

She had also been through this age group; if Eriri's little expressions these days weren't about having a boyfriend, then what were they about?

Could it be a girlfriend?

Although the Sawamura family was very open-minded—they even helped their daughter sell her doujinshi—

But—her daughter finding a girlfriend was still something she found hard to accept.

Seeing her mother's strange expression, Eriri knew immediately that she was thinking about something abnormal again.

"Mom, what are you thinking about again?" Eriri said speechlessly, "It's not those inexplicable things. It's that I encountered something very miraculous."

"Something very miraculous?" Sayuri asked in surprise, "What is it?"

Although her own child was a shut-in, she was still a young lady of a wealthy family. She knew about the affairs of the upper class, even if she didn't particularly like them.

Anything that could make her call it miraculous must be very interesting.

"Mom, do you think other worlds exist?" Eriri asked.

Sawamura Sayuri was stunned: "Other worlds?"

She raised a delicate hand and placed it on Eriri's forehead, "You don't have a fever."

"Eriri, have you been drawing too many doujinshi lately and gotten confused? Although Buddhist scriptures and other myths and legends have tales of other worlds, those other worlds are just human delusions."

"I'm not sick." Eriri shook her head. As she spoke, she began to recite the Light Mantra. The next moment, her whole body emitted a burst of light, illuminating the entire room.

Sawamura Sayuri was stunned.

She had originally thought it was some kind of tech product, but in the end—she couldn't find anything at all, as if the light were coming from beneath Eriri's skin.

After waiting for a while, until the mantra was finished, Eriri finally stopped.

"Mom, do you believe me now?"

Sawamura Sayuri nodded: "What is going on?"

"It's a chat group!" Eriri explained, "That chat group connects the myriad worlds. There are immortals, there are demons..."

"And one of the Taixuan Divine Mantras I just recited can grant light power to cleanse the body. Now, I've become quite strong."

As she spoke, she looked around for something to prove it.

But this was her bedroom and studio; where would she find anything heavy?

"There really are other worlds?"

"And you met gods?"

Sawamura Sayuri felt her worldview shattering.

It was clearly an ordinary scientific world; how did it suddenly become connected to the supernatural?

Seeing Eriri looking around and knowing she wanted to prove it, Sawamura Sayuri laughed, "Alright, Lily, no need to look, I believe you. By the way, can Mom learn that?"

"Of course you can." Eriri's attention was immediately drawn, "Mom, I'll teach you."

Eriri had, of course, read the chat group's precautions.

It was just forbidden to spread it to the people of the Sakura Country on a large scale; spreading it to her own family was allowed.

"Praise Taixuan..."

Eriri taught Sawamura Sayuri word by word.

This wasn't a difficult task at all; after only a moment, Sayuri memorized the mantra and began to recite it herself.

As her voice rose, sure enough, just like Eriri, light bloomed from her body.

Unlike being a bystander, she could vaguely see that mass of supreme light power and feel a substance within her flesh turning into pure energy, cleansing her body.

She felt her body becoming stronger.

This strengthening was both inside and out; even her thinking had become much faster.

A moment later, when she finished reciting, she discovered a layer of pale dead skin on her body. With a gentle rub, it fell off, revealing the delicate, smooth skin beneath, as soft as a baby's.

"This..."

Sawamura Sayuri couldn't imagine it.

Although she was in her thirties, if she dressed up, she looked just like Eriri's older sister.

But that was just the opinion of outsiders.

In fact, once a person passes the age of thirty, all sorts of conditions decline significantly.

Skin, physical strength, and energy were all far worse than before.

This was also the reason why many people were "optimized" at thirty-five.

People over thirty absolutely could not compare their energy levels to those in their twenties.

To maintain her skin, Sawamura Sayuri often underwent beauty treatments and used the best cosmetics. The cost of her cosmetics for a year was many times more than what a corporate slave would earn in a year without eating or drinking.
