579 Interfering with the Pas (1/2)

In a luxurious room, a young man was preparing for taking an important trial that would let him become the Emperor's successor.

He had just achieved immortality, but he was plenty confident about clearing the trial.

”Soon! Soon I will finally fulfill the expectations my father has on me. I must go now!”

The young man was about to leave the room when he noticed that a translucent person appeared just in front of the door, preventing him from leaving.

The young man wasn't sure if he could just go across that person, but his intuition told him to remain still.

The translucent person was Yale's consciousness that materialized in a past era, and the young man was the past self of the old man who was the Emperor's brother.

Yale was still a bit shocked that sending his consciousness to the past provoked a breakthrough on the Minor Time Divinity, but that just made it easier that he materialized being just his consciousness.

In fact, just the fact that Yale appeared there was enough to provoke huge changes in that era, so even without doing anything else, Yale had already destroyed the present he was a moment ago.

However, he wanted to lead it to the point he wanted; he wouldn't be happy if it didn't end up like he planned.

A big change to the story of a universe was the final condition to obtain the Minor Time Divinity.

Yale messed with the time a lot, but he didn't make any important changes in the past. His Time Leaps when dealing with the Sacred Empire barely counted, so he managed to retain the False God level, but it was insufficient to reach the Minor Time Divinity directly.

Given that he already had the False Time Divinity, with a lot of small changes, it was also possible to reach it, but the speed would be extremely slow.

In fact, someone with the False Time Divinity would be tempted to make a big change to the past. With such a big power, it was too difficult that someone who had trained until that level didn't want to experiment it to its limits.

Compared to Alter Yale, Alrein, and the Mysterious Expert, Yale hadn't done any big change to the past.

The Mysterious Expert did it while being too weak for the method he used, so it ended up in failure.

Alter Yale knew perfectly that if he just sent his consciousness to the past and changed it, he would succeed, but he knew that the future he wanted wouldn't be achieved in that way, so he deliberately used the chance to travel physically, which ended up provoking that he disappeared.

The way Alrein saved his universe, thanks to going back to the past, already cleared that condition for him, but he was still missing several requirements to achieve the Minor Time Divinity.

However, that big change was the major impediment to everyone, so the fact he already cleared it made Great God Kroh think that Alrein was the one with the most chances to succeed.

The Timeless Border of Alrein's universe also made it easier for a Timeless Sovereign to affect the time compared to other Timeless Borders, which increased the chances a lot, but in the end, Yale didn't use it for the big change.

Even Great God Kroh was surprised because Yale shouldn't have been able to send his consciousness to the past.

Sending an observer consciousness was one thing, but one able to interact wasn't that easy. In fact, without being first a Minor God, Great God Kroh believed that it was completely impossible, and with his knowledge about time, if he believed it, it was certain.

However, Yale used a trick that even Great God Kroh didn't expect.

He weakened the existence of the present by tricking a whole universe combining the Lie Divinity and the Illusion Divinity, which made the past easier to change, so a False God could barely succeed at sending the consciousness to the past and affect it.

Another important factor was that the universe had been almost isolated from the moment Yale appeared until the moment he was before going to the past.

Beside investigating Alrein's universe, the presence of Yale and Tofesh, and the contact with the Smuggler Association, there hadn't been any other contact with other universes. Moreover, the contacts had been pretty near to the time Yale was before going to the past, so the effect was almost negligible in difficulty.

”Who are you?”

While Yale was still shocked by his breakthrough, the young man asked.

Yale was shocked in the inside, but his face was completely expressionless, so the young man didn't know if Yale was an ally or an enemy.

What he knew for sure was that anyone capable of infiltrating into the palace wasn't someone he could offend.

”I have a lot of names, but that isn't what you really want to hear. What you want to ask is why I am here.”
