592 Meeting at the Timeless Border (1/2)

”Quite a strange weakness. Why does such a thing happen? If you just say that is due to the fusion of soul and body into a wholesome existence, dying after a single death makes sense. Still, there is no reason for being unable to resurrect a True God manipulating the time.”

Yale found Alrein's explanation a bit flawed, but he knew that Alrein didn't have any reason to lie.

”I myself am not too sure. It is already lucky enough that I managed to obtain this kind of information. However, this is the truth.”

Alrein knew that there was a need for some more explanation in that topic, but he had already told everything he knew. It was already a miracle that he managed to learn so much, given the secrecy maintained on the subject.

Yale sighed.

”Well, with your True Miracle Divinity, I doubt that someone can kill you, so this won't be a problem for you even if you advance...”

In terms of defensive capabilities or rather in survival capabilities, the True Miracle Divinity was unbeatable. Its passive effects wouldn't let the user be killed.

”True enough. If it wasn't because I was planning to sacrifice myself to go the past and change everything, I wouldn't have been worried at all.”

A death for that reason would still count, so even if Alrein saved the universe by traveling to the past, due to the fact that he would disappear later, the Alrein on that timeline would be fated to disappear anyway.

”Anyway, it isn't like if your True Dimensional Divinity is too much worse. Controlling it properly, I doubt that someone can harm you.”

Alrein just knew what he saw about the True Dimensional Divinity, but that was enough to have a proper guess of its strength.

”I guess that is also true, but it isn't a passive effect. I can prevent that others could touch my body and thus harm me, but that would affect both those with good intentions and those with bad intentions. I won't even be able to hug my wife, my daughter, or my sisters. They won't accept this no matter what. However, if I become a True God and deactivate the protection being with them, and some enemy knew of it, I would die.”

Yale didn't fear a frontal battle since no one would be able to harm him, but he knew very well that he couldn't maintain that level of defense when he was relaxing with his family.

That was a problem that applied to almost all True Gods too. For experts that reached that level, it wasn't strange having methods to protect themselves, but the problem was that they couldn't maintain them for a long time, or they were too impractical when they weren't in battle.

Those who had passive protections were usually considered the best, but none of them was as practical as the True miracle Divinity.

For example, the True Lust Divinity would prevent that others had malicious intentions towards the owner, but if the other party wasn't affected at all or the owner received an attack that was aimed at someone else, it would be useless.

”What about using Absolute Protection in a semi-permanent state? I can make that it resets the restoring time to the current ones at constant intervals as long as I am not in battle.”

Yale was quite proud of Absolute Protection. It was an easy application of controlling the time, which could be taught easily to weaker disciples, and with enough supply of energy, even a mortal could use it like Yale himself did after reincarnation.

Moreover, Absolute Protection was something that was still practical even after Yale became so strong. At that moment, covering a whole universe wouldn't be a problem. Even doing it to a hundred connected universe simultaneously wouldn't be impossible for him.

Absolute Protection was quite limited when the user was weak, but used by someone with a Time Divinity, it would be difficult needing to reach that limit.

Yale couldn't even guess how effective it could become if used by someone like Great God Kroh, but someone at that level could just go back physically to the past or revert the time without the need for something like Absolute Protection.

Even Yale would just rely on Time Rewind as long as it was for something that wasn't implying his own security. After all, unless it was something cast beforehand like Absolute Protection, he wouldn't be able to use it if he was already dead.

”Sadly, that won't work.”

Yale and Alrein turned around when they heard those words because neither of them had spoken them.

”When did we enter the Timeless Border?”

Alrein knew very well that unless it was something made by someone with a far stronger control of the time than them, it wouldn't be possible to be dragged to the Timeless Border without even noticing it.
