Chapter 186: Searching for 'Time' in the Sky

Upon hearing Charles's words, the Holem's Crown spoke in disapproval.

'Space Travel? No, we would never dare to travel in space, lad. There are many dangers out there like World Eaters, Terrifying Void Lifeforms, Space Walkers, and also natural disasters. If we want to travel to a planet, we mostly use different kinds of formulas and directly find the planet. As long as it is visible up in the sky, we can find it quickly and go there using the coordinates. If not, we will use Explored Map and find it. As for space travel, only gods would send their avatars to search for divinities.'

'Didn't you roam in the void before 'Coincidentally' meeting Eddie?' Charles gave a skeptical look at the bracelet.

'Haha, I was lucky at that time…' The Holem's Crown's voice trailed off as it said those words and soon went silent.

'It sure is hiding something.' Although Charles was eager to know more about its secrets, he didn't dare to use any forceful actions.

'This guy is not some ordinary foe.'

He thought to himself and recalled the moment before the contract process.

'When the mysterious plane's 'Will' descended to complete the contract process, it used the power of 'Time' and froze everything… It definitely has some link with my Game System and its original owner… Does that mean my 'Backer' is powerful enough to control a 'Time' domain planet?' A chill crept up to his spine.

He soon calmed his mind and asked his doubt.

'Mr. Runeth, do all planets have their own 'Will'?'

'No. This has something to do with World Trees. Only those planets with World Trees have their own 'Will,' lad. The World Tree, Eternal River of Life, Blood River, Dream World, and few other mysterious things are somewhat interlinked with one another.' The Holem's Crown said in a solemn tone.

'Interesting.' Charles nodded inwardly and asked another strange question.

'Can Gods have the power to subdue a plane's will and take full control over it?'

'……'

The Holem's Crown's mind went blank for a moment.

It suddenly realized that its current owner was an abnormal one with crazy thoughts and went silent.

After a long time, it finally managed to calm down and said in a deep tone.

'A Plane's 'Will' is not some cat or dog, lad. Let me tell you about a tragic story of my World's Ancient Gods. Eons ago, a group of Easica World's ancient High-Gods and a few other foreign High-Gods found some secrets about a plane and tried to invade it. It's a Low-Plane called 'Itera."

'It was the only planet that holds the domain of 'Time' and 'Space' in our solar system. No, it was the only young 'Time' domain planet in the whole galaxy. At that time, a total of seventeen High-Gods went to attack it with their avatars, incarnations, and their main bodies. That was the first, and the last time a group of Gods dared to attack a 'Will' formed Plane.'

'Do you know what happened after that? That Plane's Will named 'Itera' went berserk and fought back all of them singlehandedly! She even locked the surrounding space, resisted them, and even killed a High-God's main body in less than two minutes. After that, Gods also went fought against her and caused destruction all over the Plane.'

'In the next twenty hours of battle, the Gods caused the planet to change its trajectory and almost destroyed it. Only its core part remained during the end of the battle. But before the Gods could finish off the planet and get their reward, Itera used her 'Time' power to full extend and started her massacre. In her final moment, she killed all those High-Gods' incarnations, avatars, and Main bodies and even erased their souls from the existence itself!'

'Only one Ancient God managed to escape from there and he was still hiding in his fallen Divine Kingdom. That massacre still rooted in everyone's mind.' There was a trace of awe and respect that appeared in the Holem's Crown's voice.

On the other hand, Charles felt suffocated. Not because of the story, but because of the person behind the Game System.

He soon thought of a possibility and asked with a trace of nervousness.

'Can you tell me the name of the escaped 'Ancient God'?'

The Holem's Crown didn't find anything odd about his behavior and answered truthfully.

'His name is 'Udnir.' He is a mysterious God of Time, Space, and Shadow. Don't try to think of him frequently. Even though he is fallen from the throne, I heard that he is a very terrifying person… Sh*t…I think I already mentioned his name before…' The Holem's Crown suddenly cursed in shock.

'You already mentioned his name?' Charles furrowed his brows and soon noticed that he indeed heard of this name before.

'Wait… You mentioned 'His' name when we were traveling to the City Ruins in the Unexplored Forest! I think it was due to the 'Mark of Imagination." Charles instantly guessed.

At the exact moment, he also engraved the mysterious Time God's name in the deepest part of his Inner World.

'Yes. We should avoid mentioning his name from now on.' The Holem's Crown said in a nervous tone.

Meanwhile, Charles nodded his head and thought to himself.

'I finally got some big clue… This mysterious 'Time' God might be the real culprit.'

He let out a deep sigh and turned his attention towards the book.

'Next is about constellations. I want to find all the 'Time' stars in the 94 constellations using the Twelve Rings formula and make a Twelve Rings Book. Once I complete that, I don't need to be afraid of these Destiny-related skills and prophecies.' A smile appeared on his face.

He was always wary of those invisible manipulative and foreseeing powers!

Without wasting any time, he once again dipped the quill into the ink bottle, moved his hand towards the book, and started to write the Twelve Rings formula.

After that, he looked up at the dim red sky and soon zeroed his gaze on a single star constellation.

A total of 13 stars that formed a pattern of a cat appeared in the sky.

At that moment, Charles's eyes began to shine, and his lips began to move.

He began to chant in an ancient runal language.

First, he focused on the tail area and soon locked his gaze on a single bright star.

Then, he chanted in an ethereal tone for the next ten minutes and finally ended it.

A moment later, he noticed that the star turned blurry for a moment and soon returned to normal.

"The star turned blurry… It's a failure." He muttered with a frown.

Then, he turned his attention to the next star and once again continued to chant.

Seconds turned minutes, minutes turned hours, and soon it was already 5 A.M!

He ended the final chanting and sighed in disappointment.

"It seems I need to put some extra time in this." He couldn't help but show a wry smile on his face.

Although he tried his best and used the formula on 27 stars, he still didn't find a single 'Time' star at all!

'There are still 92 constellations remain in the sky.' He pressed his lips together and closed the book.

Then, he stored all other things in his space ring and went back to the third floor.
