605 Wedding Gif (1/2)
Just like what Lucien had in mind, the silver pocket watch was in the most rigorous and mechanical style. At the center was the white dial, where mysterious symbols made of different gems represented different times. The black second hand ticked, making the sound that was echoing in everybody's hearts. Other than that, there was also one thing special about the pocket watch, which was that there was a button on each side of the dial where it was connected to the band. The buttons were emitting metal brilliance.
It also had the cover and the decorations that other pocket watches had.
After he waved his hands, the silver pocket watch flew into Lucien's hands, and the silver chain was clipped to the buttonhole on his waistcoat automatically.
Lucien pressed and closed the cover of the pocket watch. The tick immediately stopped. He raised his thumb and opened the cover again, immediately sensing that he had been surrounded by something mysterious.
Holding the pocket watch with his right hand, Lucien noticed that the black second hand was bouncing merrily inside. He pressed the right side of the button.
After a click, the second hand immediately stopped. The colors around quickly faded away, leaving nothing but monochrome, as if everything had been slowed down except for himself. Nothing could move normally.
It was the legendary spell, 'Advanced Time Stop'!
Crack. Lucien pressed again, and all the vivid colors returned. The world became normal as the second hand moved on.
As Lucien's thumb slid up and down the edge of the pocket watch, the second hand moved faster and then slower, and the speed of the items around followed accordingly.
”This truly fits the characteristics of 'Observer of Time and Space'.” Lucien then tried the button on the left side. Immediately, he saw the features of 'black' on the steady planet made of iron. Space was curved, and the gravity within several thousand meters was extremely chaotic. Other than the spells that directly worked on the body, everything else's track had been twisted.
'Gravity Collapse' could not only deal direct damage to the target but also could be used as a crowd-control spell.
After testing his unique legendary item, Lucien was very satisfied with it. Then, according to the tradition of this world, he engraved the information of the pocket watch into its pivotal magic circle and named it.
”The Moon Timer is a level-one legendary item. Other than the sorcerers who have a deep understanding about time and space, its users must have a half-solidified cognitive world. Even the sorcerers who understand time and space very well must at least have a substantiated cognitive world. Otherwise, their body and their soul would be washed away by time, and they would age and die soon.”
”The Moon Timer is a landmark of 'Observer of Time and Space'. Whoever wears it will be immune to the extraordinary abilities related to time and space below legendary. Similarly the spells they cast themselves would not be affected. Instead, such spells will be enhanced and more accurate. The users will also gain a certain amount of resistance against the time control above legendary.”
”It is also the lord of time. The aging of its master would be slowed, granting another 520 years of longevity.”
”The buttons on the left and the right side can replace spells. By pressing them, it is possible to perform 'Gravity Collapse' (twice every day) and 'Advanced Time Stop' (twice every day).”
”Touching the body of the pocket watch will grant the effect that is partly equal to the abilities of 'Space Staff' in accelerating and decelerating the time in a certain range. The number of maximal times of such an ability depends solely on the spiritual power of the user.”
”Twelve ninth-circle spells could be stored inside its dial in advance. They can be activated instantly without consuming any spiritual power.”
”Mysterious of time and space are among the deepest truths of this world. Only wisdom can see through them!”
”From: Lucien Evans.”
After a click, Lucien curled his finger and closed the cover of 'Moon Timer'. Then, he put it inside the pocket of the brown waistcoat inside his double-breasted suit. The narrow, silver chain extended from it and connected with the buttonhole.
”Thankfully, I had the assistance of the model of my legendary class, or my first craft would've failed.” Lucien concluded the lessons just now and understood why the legendary sorcerers' first legendary item often overlapped their own abilities.
After clearing the residue on the ground, Lucien heaved a sigh in relief.
”Hu. Everything is ready. All we need is to wait for the 'guest' to arrive now.”

Inside a manor at the suburb of Rentato…
A young man, in clean clothes and a top hat, got off the wagon with his companion who had a mustache. Led by the servant, they entered the living room.
