Chapter 234: I Am Going to Kill You (1)
Daat and Krona were inside a tent, located in a secluded corner of Sefira’s party grounds. This tent was built for private conversation and discreet deeds.
“Where have you been hiding until now, you genius?”
Krona was so tall that her head nearly brushed the tent ceiling. She was stroking Daat’s hair, but something was wrong with him. He stood frozen like a statue. He was still alive, but his time had stopped.
“If you truly understand space-time, you’ll be able to escape my Eternity.”
Eternity was a seven-circle space-time magic spell. Those struck by it were trapped inside endlessly overlapping moments. The only escape was to reverse-engineer Eternity’s structure and pull oneself out.
“Since I told you how to do it and you’re a genius, you should be able to do it, right? Ahh!”
Krona stretched and smiled in satisfaction.
“I don’t remember the last time I concentrated so much that I lost track of time. Sefira’s an interesting place. I didn’t expect us to run over our promised hour. Anyway, I guess he’s still not here.”
Krona didn’t need magic to know that Keter still hadn’t arrived; she could tell from the noise outside.
“Hmph. How dare he waste my time? Keter, just wait until you show up. You’re headed for Eternity too. Until then, shall I amuse myself with the princess?”
Krona stepped out of the tent and noticed Taragon and Vector in combat. The nobles’ attention briefly drifted to Krona, then returned to the fight.
“Yawn, boring.”
