Chapter 225 The Abandonment of Time
Compared to Anxeram, the **** in charge of life and death, the presence of Chronos, the **** of time, is much lower.
Even Ji Xing, who has read many books, only knows its name and knows that its bloodline has been passed down among humans, but does not know any more information.
There are probably many magicians who have had the idea of reversing life and death and have taken action to do so, but there are very few magicians who can access the power of time. The ancient curse of Anxelam, 'The Curse of Paradox', is recorded here. There are many magic books.
But what abilities Chronos, the God of Time, has and whether he has similar methods are things that even Ji Xing has never understood.
But now, he experienced it directly.
Everyone in the Magisters Guild General Assembly was lost with him for five days!
And in the meantime, they seemed to have been forgotten. Normally, when Rui graduated and came to the main guild to report for five days, Xuelin should have been worried about asking questions.
but no.
Everyone in the main guild that manages branches in various places has been out of contact for five days, and no one cares.
Even just one street apart, people lived as usual for five days without realizing that the Guild had come to a standstill!
They were forgotten by the world for five days!
If Ji Xing didn't have two consciousnesses of the Demon Continent and the Fairy Tail world at the same time, and could compare them with each other, what would have happened would have been even more terrifying - would they have been forgotten for months or even years, or even be shaken and changed forever?
The power of time is the most terrifying force!
Soon, everyone in the main guild gradually discovered that they had jumped from the 12th to the 17th. Some people were panicked, but some people were interested in exploring.
Ji Xing asked them to take a break first and go home to check on the situation at home.
After appeasing Rui, he walked around the street. The shops he visited most often did not cause any confusion similar to "You seem to have not been here for a long time."
So Ji Xing went to the palace instead.
…
"How could such a thing happen?" The old man with white hair and white beard looked shocked: "No, even if you tell me this now, I still don't feel at all that you disappeared for five days. In other words, if it weren't for you To me, I would even think it was just a prank.
The power of Chronos, the **** of time? "
His forehead has a pair of small gray horns growing out of it. He is none other than the wise dragon Berserion!
This is the humanization magic developed by Ji Xing for dragons. Nowadays, most of the dragons in Doragunov are able to walk around the country in human form through this magic.
However, in order to prevent some things, Ji Xing did not completely perfect this magic. The dragon that transformed into a human would retain some of the characteristics of the dragon and could be called a dragon to distinguish it.
As for the dragon slayer wizards, Ji Xing also taught them how to suppress dragon transformation. They may have partial dragon transformation characteristics, but they will never completely transform into a dragon unless they want to.
The 23-year-old Irene next to her showed no trace of dragon transformation on her face, and the magic power in her body was as deep as the sea. In five years of growth, she has possessed a huge magical power that is almost only inferior to that of Ji Xing, not losing to the former Igor!
After closing her eyes for a while, Irene shook her head solemnly: "I don't feel like I haven't seen you for a long time. The last time I met you was supposed to be six days ago, but now it feels like yesterday."
Since neither the person nor the dragon was aware of it, it would be difficult for anyone to react.
Ji Xing nodded slightly, then paused.
That invisible force suddenly radiated from his body and expanded!
The surrounding time has come to a standstill!
After a certain period of time, Ji Xing's movements returned to normal. He smiled silently and said to the unaware person and dragon beside him.
“Look out the window.”
“...outside the window? Hey, the sky is looking?!”
It was still noon a moment ago, but the sun was already setting at this moment. Irene was shocked: "Has that power been activated again? How many days have we lost?"
“I reacted quickly this time, and I only lost about three to four hours,” Ji Xing said.
Because of his last experience, his consciousness in the Demon Continent paid more attention to this side. However, there was a time difference of 240 times between the two sides! Even if you react quickly, from reaction to response to solution, even if it only takes a minute, four hours will still pass here!
Erin said solemnly: "Is it a black magic similar to the 'Curse of Contradiction'? What should I do, Lord Dunan, do you have a way to solve it?"
Ji Xing didn’t answer.
He can be said to know everything about magic, but the black magic of gods is something older than magic and is not the same system as magic.
Just like the curse of the demon created by Zeref, the essence of life is different. Ji Xing cannot learn it without the 'curse power' in his body.
Holding on to the window sill and looking at the scenery outside, Ji Xing thought silently for a while.
It is known that this kind of curse spreads out to the outside world with oneself as the center, causing people or creatures in a certain area to be lost for a period of time without being noticed by outsiders. Even oneself, unless he sees the changes in the sky and time, has difficulty reacting.
During the lost time, although there will be no hunger or fatigue, life is passing by.
According to his mastery of time magic, he lost those five days and four hours of his life in two bursts.
Comparing the torture and punishment of the contradictory curse of the **** Anxelam on the human heart, the curse of Chronos can be named "the abandonment of time" for the time being, which is more vicious.
There is a high probability that it is for the purpose of killing!
If it weren't for Ji Xing, the other cursed people would probably have died in despair and panic, without the ability to actively interrupt the curse or crack it!
Even Ji Xing felt troubled.
Although if it were just this effect, once he got used to it, he could probably increase the dispelling speed to within an hour, but that was a situation where he in the Demon Continent did nothing and was fully on guard.
If nothing else, you have to sleep, right?
The Demon Continent took a nap, and the Fairy Tail world was suddenly lost for half a year?
What's more, it's impossible for the Demon Continent to do nothing. The candidate for the Divine Hunter is coming soon, and Ji Xing has to go all out to hide it from him.
‘Originally, I wanted to prepare for a few more years before testing the power of the gods, or let Zeref go to Anxelam to explore the way first, but now it seems that the God of Time is a little anxious. ’
Ji Xing looked at the people beside him who were worried about him because of his silence, and said with a smile:
"It's okay. The curse of the gods is a dead end for others, but for me it's just research materials delivered to my door. The first time I was hit, I was lost for five days, and the last time I was hit, I was lost for three or four hours. ? You will gradually become immune.
However, I am worried that this curse that has not been recorded in writing has other characteristics that will not affect me, but will affect other people, so I will probably leave the royal capital for a while and come back after the curse is broken. "
One person and one dragon were not comforted. Berserion asked: "Is everything really okay?"
“Lord Dunan...” Irene also called softly.
"It's really okay." Ji Xing said: "It's not easy for me to die now, and the power of time can't kill me casually."
After thinking about it, he took out a magic jade bracelet and threw it to Irene: "This thing has my body of thoughts attached to it, keep it safe for me. Even if something happens to me, I can still be revived through this thing. Can you rest assured now?"
Irene looked at the bracelet, breathed a sigh of relief, and put it on her wrist seriously.
“I will keep it carefully!”
"It doesn't matter if you lose it. I have prepared several similar things." Ji Xing smiled: "But yours is a bit special. It is also the key to my treasure house. The location of the treasure house is the desk drawer commonly used by my main guild. Space magic expands. If it takes me more than half a year this time, I ask you to open it and release something according to the plan I made...
Well, I will also send you a message at that time. "
"I see."
"Okay, let's do this for now. It seems that dinner time has arrived, and the chefs in the palace are probably in chaos. You can find a way to appease them."
Erin smiled, right? We just finished lunch and it was already dinner time. You must know that they had to prepare food for the dragon. It would definitely be too late and it would be a mess.
Looking at Ji Xing's disappearing figure, the smile on her face quickly faded, and she gently touched the bracelet on her wrist.
She could guess Ji Xing's thoughts and see Ji Xing's plan - if I can't solve the curse, I will solve the **** who used the curse!
But that is God after all.
“Lord Dunant…”
“Be sure to be safe and sound.”
Double monthly pass! Please please please please please!
