Omega Summoner

When the group finally returned back to Nebulon, they Evergreen guild members went to their temporary guild headquarters. Levin Cloud went with them as he still has business with the Anastacia. He also told Adrian that he will need his help when they are going to fetch the other prophet from captivity.

Alder wanted to go to the eastern continent immediately, but he was needed for guild matters. His trip with Peridot to the eastern continent is put on hold. Peridot did join Levin Cloud as she wanted to see what he will do.

Kabrakan said that he will find missions that he can partake in so that he can become stronger. Creepysoo then invited Kabrakan to go hunting with him since that is what he doe in his free time. His only royal undead responsibilities are basically show himself in the castle every once in a while.

The two half elementals, Vayu and Soleil, returned back to Alfheim to ask Lauma about their worries of a traitor among the elemental kings. The words that Adrian told them sort of make sense, but they want to believe that it is not happening. They disappeared in a flash of fire and wind after saying their farewells.

Adrian is then left by himself as he waited for the others to be on their way. He now has the power to save Ascalor. With the remaining time he has left, he immediately teleported to the Paradox Planes. He did not want to waste any more time as Elder Danaya looks like she is about to pass out from exhaustion.

====

Adrian returned to the Paradox Planes and noticed that the number of Daemos Corps patrolling has significantly lessened. He asked about it so that he could get the rundown of the situation and learned that the Daemos Corps is now on alert as some dungeons started overflowing with monsters.

Adrian is told that the presence of a dark god might have influenced the mana productivity of the world as a god does produce a lot of mana. The barrier surrounding the fallen imperial capital is also a large lump of mana. As time passes, the barrier weakens and the mana it has dissipates in the world.

Mana created by the gods themselves are not difficult to control but the collection of mana from multiple gods to form a barrier is different. For example, if a lightning god were to influence the world using its mana, then there might be an increase of monster or individuals that can use lightning magic. This is also what happened when the twin gods descended as their mana seeped to the soil of the dungeon.

Adrian learned another useful tidbit of information regarding the how a god's mana influences the world. He thanked the guard that answered him and immediately ran towards Ascalor's home. He saw Elder Danaya inside Ascalors room, but she is not in the best condition. Elder Danaya's bright green glow seemed to become dim.

"Are you okay, Elder Danaya?" Adrian asked as he checked if she could hear him.

"You finally came. Did you succeed? The poison started spreading again after two days. It even dispelled the power of the relic." Elder Danaya asked weakly.

"I succeeded in getting the two relics that could save the old man. You should rest and stop applying healing magic to him. You look like you are about to pass out from severe exhaustion." Adrian stated in a worried tone. He treats Elder Danaya like that kind auntie you buy snacks from and gives you extra because you always buy from her.

"I leave it up to you then." Elder Danaya stated as she relinquished the spell that prevents the poison that is infecting Ascalor's body.

Adrian took a good look at Ascalor's body and noticed that the poison has almost covered 75% of his whole body. It seems that the efforts of the elder dryad have been stressing her out to a large degree. If the poison has spread despite her effort and the magic of the sphinx then this poison is far more tenacious than they thought.

"I, Equinox, request the aid of the Stele of Everlasting Time to help me rewind the time for the induvial Ascalor. Rid him of the time he was poisoned and return him to his former state before that." Adrian shouted and his request has been heard.

The Stele of Everlasting Time shot out from his chest and glowed. Elder Danaya saw the relic and could only be amazed by its sheer power. It is not only her who felt the power of the relic as everyone in the Paradox Planes did.

The Stele of Everlasting Time burst out into millions of particles. Adrian thought that he failed until he saw what really happened. Time has stopped moving except for him as he saw Elder Danaya not blinking even once.

The time in the Paradox Planes is not the only thing affected as all the time in the universe is put to a stop. The only ones that are not affected are demons with perfect control of time or beings that time cannot control. One such being is in the fallen imperial capital and noticed the surge of temporal power in the world.

If there is not a barrier restricting the dark god's movements then it might have used the frozen time to its advantage. Unfortunately, the barrier that is holding it back is made from the power of gods which is why it cannot use the frozen time to its benefit. The dark god did not idle as it sent out a powerful warrior it created to find out the source of the disturbance, but it got frozen in time as well despite having the blessing of a god.

Koronn, who is in a meeting with the delegates of the other races, noticed that time suddenly stopped. He immediately disappeared from his location and appeared inside of Ascalor's home. He noticed the power behind this magic as even the Daemos froze which should not have happened.

Koronn then saw a giant figure appear above the Paradox Planes. It was none other than the Ultima Sphinx hovering above the Paradox Planes. It threw its gigantic spear above it and it suddenly became a large clock hand.

A giant clock is also summoned when it did this and this clock expanded until it reached the end of the universe. The Ultima Sphinx then uttered words that seemed absolute.

"Reverse the time to undo what has been done. Reverse the flow even though it is something that must not be done. The words of the Guardian of the Stele of Everlasting are absolute. Let time move backward for this individual.

Let it be so that the time that has passed for him was but a dream and not a reality. Even the gods could not undo what the Stele of Everlasting Time has done. It is absolute for time is absolute." The Ultima Sphinx stated with its two simultaneous voice.

It reverberated throughout the universe as if it is rewriting what has transpired. The only thing that it rewrote is that Ascalor was never afflicted by the poison of the dark god from another dimension. Adrian could see that Ascalor's pained face started to get better, and the signs of the poisons disappeared.

"The deal has been delivered and the promised kept. To the Champion Equinox, the guardian of the Stele of Everlasting Time will be forever grateful. If fate brings you once more to us, then you will no longer be tested for being worthy. Farewell great benefactor." The Ultima Sphinx stated.

The Ultima Sphinx then retracted the huge clock it spread throughout the universe and retrieved its spear. Time once again flowed, and the people could now move again. The Daemos saw the Ultima Sphinx hovering above the Paradox Planes and the guards started to mobilize.

The Ultima Sphinx did not stay long as it waved its spear and tear in reality opened to which it jumped in. The guards heaved a sigh of relief as they knew they cannot take down that behemoth with the elders. Koronn's eyes are filled with immense admiration for the powerful temporal magic that he just witnessed. He even cried a little to show his deep appreciation for it.

Koronn himself can stop time but it would be more synonymous to slowing time to a vast degree. He immediately rushed to Ascalor's room to see if the effect of the relic is effective. Even he got shocked that Ascalor is totally fine like the time before he left to hunt the Star Spawn.

Koronn even noticed that there is no lingering effect of temporal magic from Ascalor. As if what the Ultima Sphinx is the truth that it would be as if it never happened. It managed to rewrite phenomena to the point that the Gods of Time will not come to smite Ascalor from existence.

"Amazing!" Koronn stated as he finally had an epiphany on how he would progress to the next level.
