Myria stared at Davis, who appeared to be at a loss.

She didn't think of blaming him for his ignorance as she was also perplexed as to how such a Divergent could exist. She had heard that Divergents who had time-attributed physiques were extremely difficult to kill as they could control time better than time-attributed heavenly geniuses because they were already Divergents who didn't fit into fate's machinations.

However, this Time Divergent called Kronos Alistair seemed to be even special among them as he could apparently go back in time to know about the future various times.

That wasn't possible as it took an proportional amount or at least, a conservative amount of energy to change things.

To produce a wisp of fire, a little bit of energy was consumed.

Similarly, a minor amount of energy is used to produce a technique, and a major amount of energy is used to unleash a divine technique, and so on.

However, techniques regarding time were different. Thê source of this content n/o/v/(el)bi((n))

Time was connected to the entire universe, so when one tried to slow down time or make it go faster, the energy spent would be directly proportional to the range and the space covered because that was how much the universe spent its energy to forward time in that particular area.

But going back in time? That was a feat that would negate the universe's consumption of energy that it used up for its temporal flow so far.

Of course, Myria understood that only Kronos Alistair's memories were sent to the past through the physique, so the consumption of energy should be little but regardless, time did go backwards, so there would be a significant amount of energy that needed to be spent and Kronos Alistair could in no way match the energy required to negate the universe's temporal progression.

She doubted even an Empyrean could do that.

Therefore, she eventually came to the conclusion that it was due to the connection Kronos Alistair possessed with a higher power, the Time Dimension. It made up for the deficiency of energy, allowing Kronos Alistair to travel back in time without instant repercussions in the form of a divine punishment tribulation.

"Even if he could go back in time, it would be no more than a minute... or up to a few minutes as a rough estimate. If he went any further when faced with foes like you, then the karmic burden that would fall on him would also be significant, but since he didn't go back in time further and is communicating with you now to let him go, we can assume that he is incapable of choosing the particular time he could go back."

"True." Davis nodded, "It is not a power that he could control at will and is something that could only be used upon his soul's collapse, which means if we could seal his soul physique, we should be able to-"

"Didn't you say he is capable of committing suicide as he has a self-destructive inscription over his soul?"

Myria interrupted Davis, causing him to think before he nodded.

"Possibly. It could be a lie as the emotions he exuded at that time were also one of deception. It could be true, but it could also be false, so it is up to me to test it. If I went there with my true body right now, I would be able to capture him easily."

"..."

Davis raised one of his brows as he glared at Kronos Alistair.

Every time the other party called him senior, senior, he could indeed feel the respect. It was not a lie according to his Heart Intent, but that didn't mean he condoned Kronos Alistair's actions or that Kronos Alistair wouldn't attack him.

But to be fair, he didn't find a massive amount of karmic sin on Kronos Alistair either, so it was hard to think that he was irredeemable.

Still, Davis was finding it hard to let go of Kronos Alistair as he really wanted the comprehension of Time Laws, but without the physique, he doubted he could access the Time Dimension's power, which would make him unable to go back in time.

"Don't act so sincere." Davis narrowed his eyes, "Your sincerity comes from the fact that you can redo the past, making your actions invalid."

"..." Kronos Alistair didn't look amused, "That is not-"

"Still, I'll consider your words and make a decision."

Davis interrupted before leaning closer, "Enter a binding with me that states that you will never threaten me or my family unless I move against you first. You shall not also target my friends and allies nor commit willful evil."

"Wha-"

"If you agree, we will part ways." Davis pressed on, "If not, we'll continue this for a few more encounters before we try again, but my patience is limited, so if I find out that you didn't accept my deal before, I might forgo your plea and end up killing you again and again till you can no longer survive, much less dare to undergo your Empyrean Stage Tribulation."

"..."

Kronos Alistair's expression churned as he clenched his teeth.

How could he accept this sort of deal that was pinned against him? It made him mad. However, he tried to calm down and threw his own condition.

"In exchange, you will promise to help me when I need you, senior."

Davis raised his brows, "Depends on who you are like. Considering you tried to violate a queen of a magical beast race, I can only imagine how many women you pressed down, and I vehemently hate such beings that I should cut you down without-"

"Ridiculous!" Kronos Alistair stood up, roaring, "I haven't done such a thing in all my life as I owe my life to my mother! I told you I looked forward to making Queen Nadija my wife and making a family with her!"

"..."
