Chapter 1096: Trading Divine Abilities
When Sein opened his eyes again, he found himself standing at the heart of a massive space-time altar.
The turbulent currents of space-time energy during transit had knocked him out cold before he could stay conscious for long.
Thanks to the Spider Queen’s precise control and the altar’s pull, Sein’s return to the Magus World had gone smoothly, without any issues.
Traveling such immense spans of space and time was beyond what most low-ranking beings could withstand.
Even those at Rank Four and higher seldom dared to cross such long passages.
One of the greatest risks of such journeys was the physical strain.
If the journey was too long, it could cause lingering discomfort or even bring back strange phenomena from the space-time passage into the Materia Plane, like the tiny white sparks flickering around the hem of Sein’s robe right now.
No one could say for certain what those sparks were.
They could have been the result of some strange fusion between light and space-time energy. Whatever they were, it would take time for them to fade away fully.
Aside from those oddities, traveling through the space-time passage twice had cost Sein more than a hundred years of his lifespan.
Thankfully, for a demigod-level mage at his age, it was a price he could afford.
