At the same time, Cedric quickly snapped back to reality and soon mingled into the crown.
...
56 Elm Street, Commoners' Borough, Silverland City.
It was around 4 P.M.
At that moment, Cedric arrived at the entrance of Red Meat Inn with a nervous look and quickly walked in. He had already informed about that mage to his master and hurriedly came here to finish his next job.
Unlike before, he looked more like a normal adventurer than a beggar. His black hairs were combed neatly, and there was no beard on his face.
He wore a new black linen shirt and black pants. But what made everyone steal a glance at him were his unique shoes. He wore high-quality shoes that emitted a trace of mana whenever he took a step.
It was the only expensive item he had.
As he stepped into the Inn, he wore a proud look and soon arrived at the Reception desk's front. Then, he looked at the receptionist lady and asked.
"Do you know anyone named Rilos staying in this inn?" Although his tone was quiet, everyone in the hall heard it.
Meanwhile, the female receptionist got anxious as she remembered an unknown mage's appearance earlier and instantly nodded. She believed that this gentleman who stood in front of her must be some mage and grew more nervous. Upon seeing her reaction, Cedric got almost stupefied.
'Why is she acting like she had seen a ghost?' He muttered to himself in confusion.
On the other hand, the receptionist lady quickly checked the record and replied.
"Sir, there is a guy named Rilos registered today morning. His room number is 206."
Cedric also recovered from the shock and nodded. But before he could turn his head, he suddenly felt sleepy and soon found himself entered in a strange half-sleeping state. Although he could see what was happening outside, he couldn't be able to feel his body.
'Strange! What is happening?' He felt as if his body was completely under someone's control!
Before he could understand what the hell was happening, he saw his body moving towards the left side corridor and soon arrived in front of a strange wooden door.
A few seconds later, a brown-haired middle-aged man, around 40 years old, opened the door from inside and gestured him to enter.
By now, Cedric was already on the verge of crying and felt some unknown thread was controlling his whole body.
After two seconds, he suddenly gained control over his body and became relieved.
''Who sent you here?'' A cold, rough voice came from that russet brown-eyed man.
Cedric didn't dare to speak a word; instead, he quickly took the scroll and gave it to that mysterious middle-aged man.
Rilos frowned, picked up the scroll from his hand, and started to read.
"Hello, Mr. Rilos,
Do you want to co-operate with me?
-The Red Angel of Time. "
As Rilos read those few words, his complexion drastically changed. He knew what that 'Angel of Time' title meant and became extremely nervous.
There were only a few guys who boldly used this title.
'Time God Udnir's servants! Angels of Time! Time God Udnir once again appeared in this plane.' This news gave him a chill.
Rilos had heard of many legends about that mysterious God and felt perplexed.
'No! I heard that Time God's servants had long died during the ancient war. Something is wrong. Maybe this guy must be a psychopath to use the real 'Time God' Udnir's servants title. Damn, I'm almost got scared of some psycho.' He wiped the cold sweat on his face and quickly dismissed the black-haired messenger.
'I don't care if he is the real one or not. I must inform my teacher Mike.' Rilos instantly activated a communication trinket and soon heard a groan from the other side.
"Rilos, did something happen?" A creaky voice came from the other side.
"Teacher, I just now received a letter from an unknown person. And he claimed himself as an Angel of time!" Rilos instantly told everything about the letter, and soon the room returned to dead silence.
Both of them didn't speak a word for the next few seconds.
After that, the same creaky voice came from his communication trinket.
"Send me that scroll quickly. I will use the divination to check if I can track that person. We have already lost that 'Tear of Phoenix' to some random elf, so I don't want to lose the 'Death Cane.' Without the 'Breaker of Soul Chain' ability, I won't be able to break away those invisible chains placed in my body."
Rilos nodded solemnly, quickly picked up a strange red raven puppet, and placed the scroll in its mouth. A second later, that strange puppet flapped its stiffy wings and flew through the window towards the northern direction.
Meanwhile, a black-haired kid stood on the nearby building's terrace and watched the strange puppet amusingly. He was none other than Abium.
He had already discussed his plan with Azolla and considered using the necromancer's strength to achieve his goal during the upcoming expedition.
'Azolla, why did you pick the 'Red Angel' title for me?' Abium asked in wonder. He could easily tell that strange title had already scared necromancer Rilos, making him completely dazed.
He then thought of five thrones inside the mysterious throne hall and began to ponder.
'Hehe, before I answer, I will ask you something.' Azolla paused for a second and asked with a chuckle.
'Do you want to know what I thought about the 'Core of Itera'?'
Abium squinted his eyes as he heard her words and hurriedly nodded. Although he had a few guesses, he didn't dare to say them.
'I guessed this must be a core part of a star or a plane.' Azolla deliberated for a moment and continued.
'But there are few things even I don't know. How did your soul find a link to that star and take control of that mysterious fountain? Let's skip these complicated things and concentrate on the current problem. You already have a divinity that has no Udnir's consciousness hidden in it. And now you are also a holder of this Core of Itera, which seemed to be more precious than divinity to the Time God.
Anyway, the good thing is you have a clear path ahead. Moreover, you can also gather some divine power using the 'Time' Divinity and act as a true Angel of Time for the time being.
I feel that you have already found the location of another divinity, right? That must be the reason for your confident words when you asked Empress Athena to borrow a single Dream Divinity. Well, that's the reason I also asked you to disguise yourself like the Red Angel of Time. If things go smoothly and you find more divinities, you may have a chance to enter the realm of divines one day.' Azolla said with a solemn tone.
