Chapter 1311 Urashima Tarou

Katarina frowned. She tries to make sense Azief word. Time went wrong? What did he mean by that?

Katarina is thinking for a while and then after a few second, she began to put the pieces together.

’You mean…’

Azief did not let her finish what she is saying as he said

’Qarliya promise us that if we pass the portal it would only be six days’ time of difference. I had use the supercomputer in the Orvanians lab to run the calculation and it was legit’

Sighing he then said

’I also know that it is a delicate fine tuning to the basic laws of reality. That is months of our time in Seresian world compacted into only a few days. You could imagine the kind of effort and calculation needed to fine-tuned such a thing’

’This requires extreme distortions off time and space’

Katarina nodded.

’I understand some of it’ she said.

’Qarliya did come to me to tell me this. She said that I owe her big for this’ Azief only snorted at this.

He is grateful for what Qarliya had done for him and Katarina. Even if it’s him, it would be hard for him to open up a portal that have such distortion of time and space.

He could if he really wanted to but if he did it with his own power, maybe when he was fighting that future-self of him inside the Time Space tunnel he would be smash to death in the first clash

The reason why it is possible for the compression of time and space and inducing such a difference of time is because Seresian world in the beginning is in other dimension separated from the true Universe

Azief at that time of course could not have possibly known that there is Orvanian fleet in Seresian world.

Orvanians was not in his calculation in the first place. 

His calculation at that time was very simple. He would go to the Seresian world, rescue Katarina. The best case scenario was that he and Katarina could escape together.

Worst case scenario was that he dies and Katarina survive. He would not accept a worst case scenario where Katarina dies and he survive.

As for the best case scenario, if they could escape together, Azief could use the same coordinate of Time Space to imitate the chancel between the world and make sure that the time difference between the two worlds is not full of gaps

That was the plan. It was easy to manipulate time and space of such secluded dimension to suit Azief need.

But when Orvanian is on the Seresian world and then there is also the fact that Katarina wanted to stay there to fulfill her promise with the Orvanians, Azief had to trust the Orvanians to make sure that they could still return to Earth but without so many changes in time

This is because the Seresian world was brought back to the main Universe. 

The rules then had changed. Because even though there are time dilations between certain galaxies, it is still under one united time stream. 

So, he had to rely completely on the Orvanian ability who is more proficient than him in the matter of Time and Space

Still, this new plan is not bad at all. Even Azief had approved of it. Of course, he had a bit of distrust after the whole projection of worlds fiasco thing and his meeting with the Creator.

Even now, he still could not believe that he had met the Creator of everything. 

What Azief is trying to say to Katarina is simply this. Their plan was perfect in theory but faulty in executions

If everything had gone according to plan, then right now, they would only be returning to Earth after six or seven days. Basically, the world would not even feel their absence. 

But things did not exactly go according to plan. 

What happened in the Time Space tunnel, with his future-self suddenly descending inside that Space Time tunnel and started trying to mess with him had mess with all of their plans. 

It did not take long for Katarina to slowly also make the same conclusion. Her understanding might not be as comprehensive as Azief is, but she could understand what Azief is getting at

’So, what you are saying right now…’ And Katarina is trying to find the words to make sense of what she had just understood

’You are saying that we are not in the time frame that we expected? Is that it?’ 

Azief nodded and Katarina felt a bit suffocated because she understood what it means in a larger sense

If they are not in the timeframe of six or more days, then how much of time difference there is right now?

A hundred years? Thousand years? 

Thinking that she had returned to a time that is not hers is overwhelming for a few second but then she clenches her fist and her determination soars back. 

If there is a problem, they have to just fix it. 

Katarina would not give up unless all hope is lost. And it is probably not that bad considering that Azief is still maintaining his calm

There was silence between them for a while. 

Azief let Katarina digest the matter for a while. There is only the sound of the wind waving the leaves, and the sound of the insect that did not retreat when they felt the aura of these two people. 

Sighing, she then asks

’How much of a time difference that we are talking about?’ Azief shook his head.

’I also could not be sure…. right now. I fear that you would go to the Republic. If the times are different than there is no way to know for sure that your brother is still in the Republic’

Katarina nodded. 

She immediately understood the gravity of the situation. 

Azief then rubs his chin. This is what he usually does when he is thinking. Katarina recognize this so she remains silent

Katarina is fine if it’s about fighting some enemy, slaying some monsters, wreaking some havoc, but things like Time and Space travel, this is the first time that she had truly been exposed to this kind of thing

To those people who walk alongside Death Monarch, they might think it is normal to go to other worlds and other times like it is some kind of stroll on a garden on the nearby park

Truth is, there is not man y people in the world that had the opportunity to simply punch Space and Time on the face strong enough to tear it apart and then wreak havoc on Time and goes to other dimension and even timelines.

Only Death Monarch and his partner in crime Will the Golden Speedster would have enough power to toy around Time and Space like this by themselves. 

To those who were not close to Death Monarch, the idea of even going to other dimensions felt like some kind of tall stories

The only reason why some people around Death Monarch felt it was normal is because Death Monarch treated it indifferently.

Even Katarina, who is the strongest woman in the world had never been in an adventure as rich as this. So, there is many things about Time and Space that she does not know.

What is admirable about Katarina is that when she does not know something, she would leave it to the people who knows more than she is.

She could be advised. Of course, if the person who advised her is any other person, she might not listen.

In this world, she probably would only listen to two people. One of them is her brother. The other is Azief.

Both of these men is the man she loves the most. So, she waited for Azief to say something. Azief then put down his hand on his lap and then said

’First order of business’ he said and Katarina ears perked up

’We need to know if we are not thrown into some kind off a time leap beyond our time. It is fine if it’s a few month or a few yes. But if we are thrown to the future of one hundred years later, then we need to leave this place as soon as possible.’

Katarina nodded. She also could not accept it if she is transported to one hundred years later. It reminded her of the story Azief told her

Azief told her the story of Urashima Tarou. She did not WANT to be like Urashima Tarou.

Azief on the other hand is tapping his finger on top of his lap

’If it’s too much time difference, then there is too much change. I would have too little time. And the distortions are wrong. If that is the case, I could only risk certain things and tries to open another channel of time’ he mutters under his breath

That is the only worry Azief had right now. 

he worries that he and Katarina had been thrown out of the Time Space tunnel and ending up far flung into the future. 

That is why he does not dare to use his Divine Sense to scan the world.
