Chapter 745: A race (2) (1/2)
Azief then said
'Oreki refines thunder. It seems he is preparing himself. And also he must be trying to break through to Divine Comprehension. I did not know his path., But I could surmise that it might not be that different from you. He might merge the Disk in his body and achieve his own path of Divine Comprehension. So, he is collecting thunder. Even the Speedster thunder.' Azief knows that the Speedster thunder have some special properties. One such properties are that it is full of the essence of Time'
So he asked Will
'Your teacher is not worried?' Will stop walking. He seems to ponder the question for a moment and then he replied.
'She is concerned. But not worried.'
'What if he had your speedster ability by taking in the thunders of Speedsters?' Will simply replied
'Thunder is fast. But Speedster strength does not only rely on speed. And Oreki did not pursue speed as his ultimate goals.'
'It seems you have a lot of information about him'
'He stole the thunders after all' Oreki reply.
Azief laughed.
They keep walking.
Everyone once in a while, there would be a few gigantic monsters that charged toward them. Azief did not kill hem.
He just need to release his aura and when he releases it, these monster would change their tune and back away, slinking back into the darkness of the forest.
Then he stopped. Will close his eyes and then slowly one could feel the pulsating of energy from the area.
Azief frowned. He could feel that the Time flow around the Andes Plain is stagnating. Azief look around., he saw a slithering creature.
And his frown become deeper.
The slithering creature appear to be moving so slow that it almost seems like it didn't move. He then looks toward a tree.
Before Will activated his energy, a wind blows.
The branches of the tree swayed and a leave fall down. But now, that leave that is being blown by the wind and plucked off from the branches is still up in the air, falling slowly like it is in a slow motion replay.
Azief then smile
'It seems I have a lot to learn'
Will is now gathering the power of Time and imbuing it in his speed. He was not as fearful as before.
Like Azief, he too wanted to see the future. And like the oracle had said, he did not believe the future that much.
His teacher had taught him a lot about what kind of game Time played. The things they showed you is certainly not things that you would want to see.
That is because Time have a plan. And they don't like it when their plan is disturbed. As such, they would show only things that would make you self-fulfilled the things you see.
His blue eyes turn golden with lightning swirling around his irises.
Golden lightning burst out of him and the pressure of the world descended upon him. Space and Time seems on the verge of cracking.
The entire ground is filled with slithering electricity arcs.
It ravages everything around it. The green grass did not even have the chance to burst into flames before they were turned into dust.
The slithering creatures that Azief saw was on the path of the electricity arc.
The moment even a fraction of that lightning touches it, the slithering creature turns into dust.
The trees that is unfortunate and in the path of the burst of lightning arcs all turns into dust. From the epicenter that is Will all around the fifty kilometers radius all turns into dust.
Except Azief. Azief look on at this destruction calmly. Not even his robe was affected. The lightning arcs that turns everything into dust avoided him.
The Laws around him prevented the lightning arcs from even coming three feet all around him.
The grass beneath Azief feet is still green.
'So, Speedster could even confuse time?' Azief thought to himself.
He saw what Will do and as such he saw some other things that was in play when Will activated that burst of energy.
He is using the Time flow of the world to assimilate with his thunder.
'It is a bit like stealing thunder'
So he could confuse time. A key to go into the future. An essence of Time is needed.
Will and him had a plan. They plan to pierce through Time Space and went into the future. But they must be able to bypass the Time Tunnel.
If not, they might be stuck in a limbo. Will himself has been getting stronger after gaining a few legacies of the Savi'krian race.
Azief comes closer. With each step he takes, the lightning arcs make way for him. Then he arrives beside Will.
Will took a deep breath and the lightning arcs receded.
