Chapter 591: An Abrupt Change
A while ago.
Mystic Hall Auditorium, Magus Center, Miracle City.
Two figures hovered 500 meters above the Auditorium building and stared at each other.
Although it was only a moment longer, Charles felt the time itself appeared to be stopped.A heartbeat later, he didn't hesitate and cast [Accelerate Thoughts] skill on himself.
'Genesis, scan him and also connect to 'Wisdom Link' to find all information about him-'
Before he could mutter, Udnir flew towards him at an incredible speed and almost gripped his neck.
Thankfully, Charles hurriedly cast [False Blink] spell and appeared more than 20 meters away. At the same time, he also cast [False Field] spell and entered into a deep, concentrated state.
"Not bad. Your reaction speed is almost three times that of a normal Legend Rank Mage." Udnir commented casually and quietly, unsheathed the long sword in his waist.
Despite its resemblance to a typical sword, its design had distinct differences. One notable feature was the hilt, crafted from a unique black metal and adorned with numerous red lines along the sword's length.
Udnir then pointed it toward Charles and said with a smile."Let's play until your master comes."
'Sh*t! I can't make a single mistake. I already used my [Rebirth Domain] spell, so my priority now is not to fight with this monster but escape.' Charles knew his limit and thought about what he should do next.
Although he already activated his [Faceless Eye] skill and had been watching twenty possibilities of the future all the time, he knew it wouldn't work against Time God.
Before he could even think further, Udnir suddenly disappeared for a minute second and reappeared before him.
A second later, Charles saw the whole surroundings start to spin.
No, his head was decapitated at that moment.
'Sh*t,' He cursed as he realized no damage was done to his consciousness and hurriedly grabbed the falling head using his wisdom force.
Without delay, he put the head on his sliced area and cast the [Soul Heal] spell on himself.
A bluish flame enveloped his whole body a moment later, healing the wounded area before reattaching his neck.
Simultaneously, he cast the [False Blink] skill twice and reappeared more than 40 meters away from Udnir.
At that moment, a blue interface appeared before his eyes.

'F*cking hell! He is a walking disaster itself.' Charles's face turned pale as white as he glanced at the information.
"Hmm? Did you peek at my strength?" Udnir clicked his tongue and was about to raise his sword but suddenly stopped.
Simultaneously, Charles made a swift decision and muttered inside his mind.
'Genesis, roll the dice.'
Just as he muttered, the whole Miracle City entered a state of an abrupt pause.
It was not a 'Time Stop' spell but something else. Although everyone could think without interference, even Udnir could move a muscle.
A flash of surprise appeared on Udnir's face for the first time.
But what shocked him more was that even his 'Fake Omniscient Eyes' couldn't peek into Charles's future.
...
At the same time, an ancient being slumbering deep inside the core of the Adrillon planet suddenly opened its eyes and made a strange hooting sound.
"Finally! I can see the destiny threads are breaking. Let the chaos descend."
...
Back to the present...
After the passing of one second, an illusory dice made of gold materialized before Charles and descended toward the ground. As it neared his feet, it abruptly collided with an invisible barrier and rebounded upward.
The dice then commenced a leisurely spin before coming to a halt, showing a face with six dots.
Simultaneously, blue notifications popped up before his eyes, one by one.

...
As the invisible force slowly faded away, Charles finished reading all the quests and went grimly.
In the meantime, Udnir also noticed the abrupt change in time through his [Fake Omniscient Eyes] skill and looked at Charles in confusion and shock.
A moment later, his eyes flashed a hint of greed as he realized the cause of this change.
"You also possess a Miracle Gold coin? Now, this is getting more and more interesting." He made an evil grin and raised his hand.
A second later, a powerful invisible force appeared out of nowhere, completely enveloping Charles's body.
'No good! I can't get caught by this monster!' As he struggled, a powerful blinding red light descended from the three crimson moons, tore through the defensive array, and landed directly on Udnir.
It was a Demigod Rank Spell!
"Humph!" But Udnir didn't even try to evade as he used his invisible 'time' power to cover his surroundings and made a small forcefield around him.
At the same time, a slender young woman appeared behind Charles and used her divine power to negate the invisible power around Charles's body.
"I'll hold him for a while, Mr. Charles. Please escape." A familiar voice echoed from behind, causing him to turn around in surprise.
The one that appeared behind him was none other than Jessie!
But unlike before, her aura was completely different.
'Although her strength is the same-' No, another notification appeared before his face and showed her current personal information.
"Demigod?" He couldn't help but show a shocked look.
Noticing his shocked look, Jessie smiled wryly and spoke while keeping an eye on Udnir.
"A Syreni named Asher passed down her divine throne to me before her death, mister. Although I'm not even qualified to wield 0.1% of its power, I will try my best to help you escape this situation-" Before she could even finish her words, Udnir suddenly appeared before her and made a vertical slash at her.
Jessie's body split into two a moment later and soon exploded while blood was scattered everywhere.
But a single droplet of reddish blood remained hovering mid-air and expanded in size before forming an appearance of a humanoid figure.
A second later, a blonde-haired young woman in her twenties appeared a few feet away from Udnir and showed a pale face.
'He is a terrifying monster!'
Although she managed to survive due to the Blood Divine Throne's ability, she realized she was no match for him!
On the other hand, Charles suddenly flew backward and spoke to Jessie through telepathy.
'Let's descend to the ground.'
Although she didn't understand why he said that, she didn't say a word and quietly descended.
In the meantime, Udnir didn't even bother with their action and quietly looked at the sky with a frown.
The broken defensive array was already repaired then, and the whole array glowed in a golden light.
"Something is wrong about this defensive array." What annoyed him was that all the future visions showed an inevitable disaster about to occur in the next few seconds.
Although he had complete confidence in surviving the upcoming disaster, he didn't dare to take risks.
"I should leave this place." Just as he was about to use [Space-Time Leap] spell, his expression turned grim.
'Planetary Transverse seal, Interplanetary Shackle, Cosmic Lock array, Astral Gate Bind, Dream Confinement Charm, Void Portal Array, and Divine Transverse Array. Who the heck created this city? There are seven Divine Arrays cast all over this city solely for stopping anyone from escaping! It isn't a city but a formidable trap formation!' He drew a deep breath as he organized his thoughts and saw countless rays of golden lights descending from the array formation throughout the city.
Anyone who used flying spells or anyone in the middle of battling sensed an impending danger.
Among the six disasters, the first one finally showed its appearance.
