Sacrifice: Time of Mine

Chapter 201: These Memories, Why?

The sun rose while Avion dropped on the ground. Without anyone there knowing, he had gone through countless deaths.

"A-Avion?" for Mettany, after she ran towards him, he just fell on the ground on his knees. She didn't know what he had gone through as she heard him distressed mutter;

"W-why?"

Princess Alisera stepped forward, "I knew it! There is something wrong with you!" she desperately pointed out, "Avion, Papa can help you fix your head. He has a lot of Mind Elesps! Once you're fine, you repent for your actions! Even if Papa died, I can revive him, or do you want Mama to be so angry at you!?"

Even though she spoke so childish, she was very serious about it.

"Oh, right!" Gamon stepped forward, "You're a Life Elementalist..." but then looked at Avion's complicated facial expression and was so curious about it.

"Gamon..." Old Maytan urged him.

Gamon smiled, "Yes, of course, even if you don't tell me." he then continued his steps.

"Little princess, don't need to worry about his head. Although I agree that he may have a problem with it, there's no need to go to your papa. I, myself, already have a lot of Mind Elesps! Hehe..."

"That's right... Mind Element is only artificial. Someone like the Penta Elementalist who is also considered as a Mad Elemental Scholar, it could be said that he has the best Mind Elesps there are." Mer explained for his master to understand.

Gamon only nodded in pride. He crouched down and when he was about to reach Avion, the Penta Elementalist saw pained eyes glanced at him. He was stunned before he noticed...

"Eh? Where did he go?" as a Rank Es Elementalist, how could he not know? But even with that logic, he has no idea!

'That's impossible!' Gamon looked at Dragonian Sheran and the others. Meanwhile, Cojier was soundly sleeping on the ground in his human form.

The Penta Elementalist knew that he was not the only one who was stunned when he saw their expressions, "You don't know too?"

"He's there..." Old Maytan dumbfoundedly pointed with his thin finger.

"Where?" Gamon looked and increased his senses, 'How did he get there!?' he looked at where the Might of Torge was pointing at and saw a distant figure in front of the twilight.

Great curiosity raged within the Mad Elemental Scholar. In that instant, a shadow flickered before the wind exploded with a loud boom!

In Avion's perspective, he just saw a middle-aged man appeared in front of him before a fierce wind blew. But as if it had its own intelligence, the gale moved on its own, clearing the dust away.

The legendary Penta Elementalist! Having Wind and Water Elements Rank Es while Earth, Fire, and Plant Rank Ey and on the verge of ascension!

Avion suddenly felt so little. Isn't this what he is always doing? Appearing and disappearing? Is this what others feel every time he stopped time?

It's a very surreal feeling as if he was looking at a mirror. Yet, our Avion didn't panic.

This Penta Elementalist only showed in front of him and didn't do anything. With the face of "You're interesting", Gamon has no idea that time was already stopped.

Avion walked away, "If only I can bring those two here..." he frowned, "I can't just leave them. I will show her that she just misunderstood something. I will not turn my back on this. If I die, I just have to be more careful and not repeat the same mistake!"

"But what do I do?" he then walked while he ponders.

"I can't leave them and that will be impossible to do without getting caught. So should I let myself be caught? I already showed my ability to appear and disappear. Gamon is already interested in me. If his reputation holds true, he will not give me up." Avion deeply frowned, "I can't believe my first stalker is a creepy middle-aged man."

"... Darea, you didn't even hear out my explanation. Hmph! I will make you come back. You think you can keep your patience while I stop time? Hehe..." he mysteriously laughed, "It's either you will come back to me or I will come and find you!"

"Now, back to the situation." deep within Avion's eyes, there was a pearl of unusual wisdom. He neither panicked nor be dumbfounded by the situation. He was able to think clearly.

It seemed like every time his soul crack, he found something new.

"My current goal is not to find Darea yet. I'm sure she has been prepared and will enter seclusion to not get bored. Maybe... even try to ascend Rank Eses. Right... now that she gained knowledge about it, I don't believe she wouldn't try it. Tsk! Seemed like the only choice is either to wait long enough or find her myself."

He then smiled, "There's a large possibility that she do that, yes. She will ascend Rank Eses. Knowing her tremendous talents and with the help of me stopping time, in the real world, she will ascend very quickly if compared to either Haliviana and Arcansas."

"You think I'm not doing this for your sake? You will see, once you wake up, I will have a surprise for you. A big surprise. So finding her is not the priority. The first step is to stop Haliviana. Second step, stop Arcansas. Third step... find my father."

Avion's eyes eerily shone, "'Who am I?' I need to ask him. I'm right, I have hidden memories. However, when some of them flashed, I saw many things that shouldn't be possible."

"Something happened. I'm not only eighteen years old... I remembered some things that don't fit my age..." he pondered more. No matter how he got sidetracked in his thoughts, he has infinite usage of time, what is he scared of losing?

By stopping time, it will make Darea's ascension faster in the real world. If she is not trying to ascend, which has a small possibility, she will get so bored she will go back to him. It is a win-win.

"Lord Sorcerer, are you my father? If you are, where did you bring me? Why do I have the memory of seeing other worlds? The memory of seeing the True Gods? The memory of seeing tall buildings that came from the Modern Era? The memory of meeting Rune God? The memory of meeting the Evil Incarnate? The memory of meeting Tiowen?"

Avion muttered one last time, "What happened that you have to leave and take away these memories? And... why do I have no memories of Mother?"
