Sacrifice: Time of Mine

Chapter 293: Playing Chase with the Rank Eses Overlord

Alisera reached out her hand and began pouring energy towards the core in Arcansas's hand.

It was a puzzling moment for many while anxious for some.

It didn't take a while before Haliviana's core started to react to Alisera's energy.

"Good, just a little more."

Arcansas's excited whisper sounded as they watched the reaction from the core.

At first, it was as if Alisera's energy was entering Haliviana's cocoon. But soon, it looked like a link between them. A spectral image of the core slowly same sticking out of its material body.

Avion frowned when he saw this. However, he didn't feel like he should do anything about it... until a spectral image of Alisera sticks out too.

"What's happening to her!?"

Arcansas snickered.

"I guess I shall tell you, mortal." although she said that, she was actually directing these words to the Rank Es Elementalists.

"I wish I have known this before I tried to ascend. In my trial of ascension, I secretly took the souls of the young promises in my family. However, it didn't work... it is not that they are not talented enough... it is because they didn't know what I was trying to do, therefore, they fought back. Instead of just safely replacing their soul, I broke it."

Arcansas said as if she was regretting it. However, her tone and facial expression expressed otherwise.

Avion felt danger from this.

"But then, there was another method that I found. Instead of taking their body, I just forcefully took their souls and materialized them, strengthening my form. That is why I look like this. However, Haliviana will get an easy way out hehe... She will just have to take this cute girl's body and-"

While Arcanasas was talking, she suddenly saw a flash of Avion. Thinking he was just an insignificant mortal, she was surprised. However, as a Rank Eses Elementalist, her reaction is faster than Rank Es.

Remember that Avion was caught by Alisera's mother, a Rank Ey Elementalist, back then after thorough planning and timing. Although Avion's reaction and activation speed of his time abilities improved from training, experiences, and unexpected benefits from his soul cracking, in front of Arcansas, it was not enough.

When Avion was about to pull the core, Arcansas's hand have caught his arm, burning it.

But there was not a single cry coming from Avion, but instead, he disappeared and appeared tens of kilometers away.

Arcansas's eyes widened before turning into a trail of fiery meteor towards him.

Even the Rank Es Elementalists found it hard to keep up with her movements.

Avion felt her presence and that was when only a second had passed. 

'That's right! If there's anyone who can stand against Arcansas, it's Avion Teller!'

Gamon and Sheran both thought.

Meanwhile, Avion wanted to ask but Arcansas's mere approach made it hard for him to leave a message when they are faster than sound more than just ten times!

Avion appeared far, even to the point of reaching another city or reaching the seas. But soon, he would see a bright light from the horizon, catching up to him, destroying everything that dares block her path.

"You brat! You think physical distance has any effect! I don't know how are you doing this but the little girl is already in the trance, in the process of getting her soul replaced! She is already unconscious and it is only a matter of time before Haliviana gets into her body!"

Arcansas' voice shook the land that even though Avion was kilometers away instantaneously in many directions, he would hear bit by bit of it.

When he finally figured out the meaning of these pieces of voice, he stopped traveling.

If one looked at the Arcansas Continent from space, one would see its scars. Lines of burns just from Arcansas' traveling.

Of course, even as a Rank Eses, her energy isn't unlimited. It is far from being exhausted but Avion can continue that chase until he lost all patience.

For Avion, more than half a year had already passed. When he stopped for even a minute, Arcansas already appeared in front of him like a Goddess of Fire.

"Finally giving up? I like the mysteriousness in you, boy. It almost feels like your the Lord Sorcerer."

"You mean that there's already nothing I can do when Alisera poured all her energy?" Avion ignored Arcansas's strange comment.

They were in the middle of a burning forest. Avion was just continuously reverting his body. When he was near Arcansas's stoppage, he was almost burnt to his bones if not for his Revert.

"So her name is Alisera... no matters, it will be Haliviana from now on." Arcansas laughed.

"I don't understand why you are doing this. But all I want to know if it's true that nothing can stop this process."

"Yes"

"And it's only a matter of time?"

"Yes" Arcansas continued to entertain herself, sadistically. But underneath this carefree look of her, she was scrutinizing Avion as a whole.

'How the hell is he instantly traveling that far without stop?'

"How?"

"How? You're hopelessly curious, aren't you? However, I'm think I'm at the disadvantage here. You've been getting a lot of information from me. How about you answer my question first?"

"Ask away." Avion didn't hesitate not to waste a second.

"How can you Blink tens of kilometers away? Do you have an Elesp Tool?"

"I will answer that if you tell how."

Arcansas didn't really care. In her mind, she had Avion dancing in her palm.

'He stopped because he had already expended the Elesp Tool. I think this boy is the son of the Lord Sorcerer for having strange methods.'

"Fine, Haliviana's soul is about to overtake the cute girl's body. There is this realm we call the Spirit Realm, boy. Space is irrelevant here. Only time matters. There is no way of saving your girl. I'm disappointed that I have a body of fire, I can't play with you." Arcansas licked her lips.

She looked at Avion as if she was hungry for fresh and young meat.

Avion closed his eyes and nodded. This made Arcansas puzzled.

'He became calm? Did I assume wrong about his relationship with that Alisera?'

"To answer your question, Queen Arcansas. If what you said to me is correct then it would take Haliviana more than just a decade before she could overtake Alisera's soul." 

As Avion said that. He tried Revert on the core.

"But now, she's back to before Alisera focused her energy."

Arcansas didn't understand what Avion was saying.

"What the hell are you talking about? Is this a joke.... wait, why did the connection disappeared?!"
