Sacrifice: Time of Mine

Chapter 123: Darea's Enlightenment and Avion's Plan

"But this is a problem..." Avion frowned which made Darea worried.

They were still in the dimension of without time, standing face to face with little distance.

Even though Avion has a "demonic" face, it does not bother Darea in one bit. Her eyes are always close after all. There is also respect that was forming within her. Her horizon was widened.

How can she not be amazed?

In front of her is the son of the once Ruler of the Universe. In comparison to the vast and seemingly endless universe, Flasse could not even be considered a speck of dust.

With just one thought, Avion could stop time. This, without needing any energy. If it does, Darea wouldn't need to search the whole world, she could directly sense the ginormous energy used to stop the world's time.

Is it because she was bored? Is it because of the irritation from not being in control of her situation? Or is it because she wanted to meet the person who could control time and maybe even vent her anger?

Whatever the reason, she failed to consider that the man that she was searching for, thinking of enslaving, was someone whom she can't even fathom.

Just as God Centre thought, Darea was new at the top of the hierarchy. She does not know much about how big the world really is.

There are multiple continents and only three Elementalists govern them, they are undoubtedly known as the strongest of all.

Her, the Conqueress, Darea Irdona.

The Demigod, Centre who was worshipped as a True God.

And the most mysterious Lord Sorcerer.

No matter where one goes in Flasse, this was common. Defeating God Centre, Darea thought that she was truly at the very peak, not thinking that there is someone higher than her.

But now, this man, Avion Teller could stop time with a single thought. The fact that she can't even sense his energy was more astounding.

Rank Ey Elementalist couldn't hide the aura of their energy from Rank Cees without a special method.

When Darea was searching for this "Time Elementalist" how could she not consider this? She used all her effort and activated every investigative elesp she has. All of them were Rank Es.

However, she only spotted him when she felt his presence, not his soul or his energy. Darea has the unique Soul and Energy Element, out of all people, she should be the best at sensing someone!

That is why she was in awe when she realizes that this "senior" was nonchalant at stopping the time of the world.

When Avion told her about the ancient way, [Connect], she had little doubt. This person could stop time so is there any reason not to believe that he could travel through time as well?

Furthermore, even she does not know why she could move during the stoppage of time. Also, she could not think of a reason why this person would lie to her.

That is... of course if he was hiding something. It was obvious, even a child could think of that. So she still had her suspicion up. Just that, the more Avion talk, the lesser that suspicion becomes.

Darea is a person who looks up to those who are stronger than her. Wanting to achieve that strength greatly motivates her.

-They must be living in a different world. Seeing different things and understanding more-

A fire blazed in her heart at this moment.

'So this is why I'm bored... So this is why the excitement of my life vanished! I've reached the pinnacle of this world and that is why I've become so bored!'

'Progress is what's making me feel alive! Now that I've reached the top, I stopped progressing... The goal does not truly matter, it's the journey to get there!'

Darea wanted to let out the emotion she feels in this enlightenment. She wants to smile widely and laugh loudly like a maniac. Nothing should stop her but in front of her was the person who showed her this path.

'One day, I will surpass this man, Avion Teller. Maybe on that day, I am qualified to know about the True Gods and the mysteries of life!' 

There was a great blaze inside her chest but since Avion seemed to be in a dilemma, she contained it.

Her thoughts only appeared for a brief moment.

"I need to meditate in this dimension, that is a necessity." Avion finally said his worries.

Actually, he wanted to say that he needs to train too. However, if Darea watched him train and saw how weak he truly is, that's like saying Avion was lying.

He didn't choose to make up a fact about him being a True God that wanted to experience being a mortal.

He had read the history of the world. Although it was not detailed, only in some cases, he has the foundation to create a lie without loopholes.

The problem was, what if Darea attacked him, knowing that he only has the strength of a mortal regardless of who he truly is?

Avion does not trust Darea.

In the books, she was someone who conquered the whole world. Although it was vague how she changed the era, it still couldn't be ignored that she was still the catalyst for its change.

In Avion's eyes, Darea was like the path to hell, the hell of endless deaths. So he was careful.

After all the stalling and thinking, he finally created a plan.

That was to continue acting mysterious!

'I should do things without giving effort. Even if it is only on the surface, I cannot fail either. Perfection without any effort so that it looks like my latent power is limitless and couldn't be measured. If I show one weakness, it would become the baseline to revealing my lie!'

Although Avion successfully thought of a plan, the difficulty was almost impossible!

If he could not use the advantage of stopping time to prepare and train, how could he do anything in perfection?

Avion's eyes flickered in brilliance at that moment. There is a way of getting of preparing without taking any suspicion. josei

That was meditation!
