After a long, painful process, Abium noticed another small humanoid fog appeared in the throne hall.
No! It was a small part of his soul.
'It appears I can simply transfer my consciousness to this other soul with a simple thought.' He got stunned. Abium felt both souls were his own and noticed that a small part of his consciousness was controlling the other soul.
'Hmm, I'm glad that splitting my soul didn't damage my Sea of consciousness.' He breathed out a sigh of relief.
After that, Abium controlled the small foggy soul to sit on the Golden Throne and directly moved his original soul towards the mysterious fountain.
'These five pedicles-like stems seem to be the real deal. Now, what is this Core of Itera?... Moreover, these five pedicles appear to be linked with different divinities, making me more curious. Do I have to collect five different divinities?' Abium stared at the mysterious fountain with puzzlement and shook his head.
'I can already guess this Core of Itera holds much more secret than just one Time divinity.' He felt a headache when he thought of those tricky questions and quickly shifted his gaze toward the other side of the Throne Hall.
Instead of an empty hall, he saw five smaller thrones in different colors placed on both sides and looked as majestic as his own.
On his right side were Black, Red, and Green colored thrones, and on his left side were Blue and Silver colored thrones. He easily guessed that these thrones were related to the Angel statues he had seen earlier and became more curious. But what made his right eyebrow arch up high was that he also saw a ring placed on each of those thrones.
'Aren't these rings I saw earlier in the Angel statues' hands?' Abium was about to walk towards those thrones to check those rings but stopped.
At that moment, all five rings with different colors began to rise from those thrones and flew towards him one by one.
Meanwhile, Abium sat dumbly on the golden Throne for the next few seconds and finally regained his senses.
After a short experiment, he discovered that the mysterious rings and thrones were moving under his will.
'F*ck! I think I ended up stealing something so important from the Time god!' Abium finally lost his composure and got more alarmed.
The throne Hall now looked more beautiful and appeared more majestic. Even the Elven Throne he saw at the Star tower was insignificant compared to these thrones.
'Where the hell am I now?' Abium muttered to himself in shock.
'Is this what they call 'Divine Throne'?' A chill went up his spine.
No, I don't think it is a Divine Throne. Maybe Time God Udnir's palace? Somehow, I snatched it from him after defeating a part of his consciousness. Haa, I don't think any god will give away their seats. He will come after me.' Abium fell into deep thinking and sighed heavily, full of worry. He felt both afraid and powerless.
'Well, I don't have another choice but to study more about this place.' Abium smiled bitterly and shifted his attention to the five different colored rings. As he was about to inspect the rings using his spirit power, more information entered his mind from the Golden Throne.
'This Throne is so scary! It seems to be constantly analyzing my thoughts.' He muttered anxiously and soon shifted his attention toward the new information.
'So these rings are for Time God's servants, huh? Using these rings, I could appoint five members as my servants and easily pull their souls into a separate domain to communicate with them in the future. Wait, I can communicate with others like those Gods?' He suddenly thought of when Lady Nyara pulled his consciousness into some mysterious black space and started to understand a little.
'Can I really able to bring someone into the mysterious black space like Goddess Nyara? Even if I bring them here, what could they gain?' Abium thought for a moment and soon shook his head.
At that moment, he felt that his mental power had already reached the limit and decided to leave this place first.
A second later, he returned to the real world and began to tell everything that happened in the Throne Hall to Azolla.
Soon, he got disappointed as she also didn't know about that mysterious throne hall and that Core of Itera.
As he was in puzzlement, Azolla spoke solemnly.
'Kid, there are only two possible reasons why I can't remember anything about the Core of Itera. The first one is that the mysterious fountain must be from another plane. For the second reason, maybe I knew about that information before the implantation, but it must be stored in that tower core. I stored most of the confidential information in the tower core.'
Abium got disappointed as he heard those words.
'Well, it's not an urgent matter anyway. First, I should continue exploring the Fex Dimension and then get the hell out of this place.' Abium nodded his head and rested for a few hours. After checking there was nothing left in the Time Temple, he quickly walked out of the ruined temple.
But as soon as he walked out, he noticed a monstrous humanoid figure wandering in the ruined city and got startled.
No! It was walking in his direction!
It was around 10 meters tall and held a massive 8-meter-long club in its Titan-like hand. It had a big muscular body and an elephant-sized round head, and its face looked exactly like the three-eyed Giant. It wore monstrous red skin to cover its private parts and carried a 5-meter-long silver snake on its shoulder.
'F*ck, I'm dead now!' Abium face went death pale!
'It's just a first-tier Warlock. Not a third-tier one you saw a few months ago.' Azolla said calmly.
Upon hearing her words, Abium regained his calm and looked at the Three-Eyed Giant.
Simultaneously, the Giant stared back at him and soon sprinted in his direction while dragging its monstrous club.
Without waiting a second, Abium conjured a one-meter radius fireball and threw it toward the incoming Three-Eyed Giant.
The fireball flew fast and directly smashed onto the Three-Eyed Giant's chest. The next instant, a loud explosion echoed and burnt its rock-like skin.
But Abium saw a smirking smile on the Three-Eyed Giant's face!
The next instant, the Three-Eyed Giant jumped up in the sky while raising its 8-meter-long rod-like wooden club with both hands and directly smashed at Abium.
'War Angel's wings.' Watching the incoming club attack, Abium cast his 'War Angel's wings' spell hurriedly and blocked it with both his crimson wings.
