Chapter 535: Gazes

Chapter 536: Gazes

While saying so, Professor released invisible fate power in all directions and nullified the 'Time Stop' spell.

A moment later, the frozen time resumed all of a sudden, causing the sword's speed to move at an unimaginable speed!

But not a single change appeared in Professor's body!

Before the black sword tore through his throat, a thought appeared in his mind.

'My 'wish' spell didn't activate!'

The next instant, the sword entered deeper, sliced the spine, and appeared on the other side!

Simultaneously, an invisible spatial ripple came out of the sword due to the force, ripped the space itself, and created a devastating shockwave!

A second later, Professor's head was nowhere to be seen, and only his ragged body was moving here and there like a drunken man.

Alas, Professor still managed to remain conscious in his soul form, controlled his right hand to rise upward, and tried to touch Charles.

On the other hand, Charles also took a step forward, touched his hand while thinking of Professor's origin, and ordered Genesis to activate the 'Past Touch' ability!

The surroundings started to distort a moment later and soon replaced it with a completely different scene.

At that moment, Charles noticed that he was standing in a grand hall, and multiple figures sat around a round wooden table placed at the center.

There were five human-like figures, two humanoid devils, a strange woman with bluish scales on her cheeks and hands, and lastly, one elven woman sat on their respected seats, and they all seemed to be having a fierce argument.

Among those nine figures, Charles managed to identify two of them!

One was the Goddess of Destiny, Sasha, while the other was the Red Prince!

As he saw this group of people, an organization's name appeared in his mind.

'Edhen's Children!'

He was damn sure of it!

Just as he was about to look at the other people, they all started turning their gazes towards his direction one by one and looked at him.

A chill went up to his spine as he felt that countless eyes were staring at him from different parts of the universe!

Before he could even blink, the surroundings started to break like mirrors, and soon Charles found himself standing in the middle of the alley road.

At that moment, Professor's headless body also remained standing before him and touched his hand.

A second later, a cold voice echoed in his ears.

"Disintegrate!"

Meanwhile, Charles squinted his eyes and noticed that his body started to disintegrate into dust!

...

Gasp!

Charles let out a loud gasp, noticed that he had already returned to the airship, and hurriedly cast [Accelerate Thoughts] on himself.

[No abnormality detected-]

'Genesis, connect to the 'Wisdom Link' and search if I'm in 'Time-Loop' spell or I'm traveling back in time.' Charles hurriedly spoke in his mind.

...

[Searching for answers...]

[Connecting to the 'Wisdom Link.']

[Connection Successful!]

...

[I found an answer, Host. Currently, your consciousness is experiencing the 'Time-Loop' spell in the fixed time, and this 'restart' process will repeat continuously until the requirements are met.] Genesis responded in his mind.

'The answer is so vague. What are the requirements?' At that moment, the airship shook violently and caused him to frown deeply.

At that moment, he sensed that the airship had already entered an invisible layer and sighed.

[An error occurred. Connection towards the 'Wisdom Link' has been lost, Host!] Genesis's word entered his head the next instant.

Nodding his head, he thought of the information he had gained earlier and fell into deep thoughts. 

'That past vision I saw earlier gave me some information about my current situation. If I'm not wrong, Professor should be among those nine members. But what are they plotting? First, I bumped into Red Prince; next, I got pulled in Goddess Sasha's scheme, and now this Professor. Hmm, if I'm not wrong, this Professor might not be original, but an avatar like others. If not, I wouldn't be able to ambush him and kill him with a little trick last time.' Although he didn't quite understand the situation, he vaguely felt that their goal in the City of Miracle was to gain complete control over the towers.

'The requirements must be the same as what Jessie told me earlier. It seems Professor managed to convince Destiny Conquerors organization and even Demigod Miguel to his plan. Now, what is my next plan? Should I go to the Tower of Sun and warn Demigod Rafael? Or, should I go after Ezra and learn more about how they manage to stop the defensive array?'

A grim look appeared on his face. Then, he suddenly thought of something, checked his body status, and soon saw no free wisdom point appeared there.

'As Genesis said earlier, I'm really in the 'Time-Loop' spell, huh.' He nodded his head in understanding and soon fell into deep thoughts. 

...

24A Orchard House, Spruce Avenue, Fourth District, City of Miracles,

At that moment, a young man in his twenties suddenly opened his eyes in his bedroom and gasped for breath before sitting up. He had long black hair, wide-set emerald eyes, an oblong face, and appeared to be around 180 cm high.

He was none other than Professor!

First, he looked at his own hands, touched his head, and then muttered in a stunned tone.

"How the hell am I still alive?" His voice contained a trace of shock and disbelief. 

He glanced around and soon realized that he was actually in his bedroom!

"Strange!" Muttering, he stood up from the wooden bed, walked towards the mirror placed on the opposite wall, and looked for any changes in his body. 

After finding no anomalies, he hurriedly moved towards the nearby table, took out a stopwatch from the cupboard, and checked the date and time.

"6.40 A.M, 14th May... Wait, 14th May?" Confusion appeared on his face.

"It shouldn't be... I died a while ago, and now I'm here in my bed. John also got killed earlier-" 

He suddenly paused for a moment as he heard a vibration sound from his silver bracelet and soon frowned.

He felt a déjà vu sensation all of a sudden. 

He then touched the center area, focused on his soul imprint, and attended the call.

A second later, a familiar voice echoed from the other side, causing him to widen his eyes.

"Good morning, Professor. Should I tell Hayden-"

"John, what day is today?" Professor cut him off and asked in a hurry.

Although John got confused a little, he paused for a moment and answered.

"Today is 14th May, Professor. Did something happen?"

Professor went silent for a moment and soon sighed deeply.

"Nothing. Why did you call me?" He asked even though he knew the answer. 

"Oh! I called you to ask whether there is any change in the plan, Professor. Should I tell Hayden to proceed?"

"Yeah, tell him to finish the job properly." Professor paused for a moment and then added.

"Also, go to Old Saint building and lock Marvin in a separate prison. If I'm not wrong, he should be using his unique skill to unlock the prison cell now."

Saying so, Professor cut off the connection.

Then, he moved towards his bed, sat on it, and started to ponder.

"How did I return to the past?" He knew that it was an impossible task and got even more confused.

'The only answer to my question is that blonde-haired young man. Who is he? Why did he interfere with our plan?' He instantly closed his eyes, thought of the person's image, and tried the divination method to locate his origin.

But to his shock, nothing appeared!

'That person is either dead or has some high-level artifact to block my divination.' A grim look appeared on his face. 

He shook his head a few seconds later, stood up from the seat, and moved towards the bathroom.
