Lord Shadow

The reason why they were unable to raise their level as fast is because the energy of the world become more scarce as more people level up. 

Those who were late to the party, slowly found themselves at a disadvantage in gathering energy

It is good enough that the great power restricted some madman who tries to thin the herd by killing those weak people

As for power leveling.

powerful people don’t have time to power level each newbie they found. 

After all, if they slacked they too would get overtaken. 

Thus, there is a problem since the energy in the world is not enough for everyone to reach the highest level that they could. 

The source that provide the energy to the world could not regenerate it fast enough to cope with the consumption of energy.

It is fine if there are tens of thousands of people leveling up to Orb Condensing stage. 

Even if there is a million people leveling up to Orb Condensing the energy of the world would not be drained that easily.

But one Disk Formation leveler could drain a lot of energy of the world. And how about a few hundreds of Disks Formation leveler? 

How about Divine Comprehension leveler? How much energy is needed to successfully breakthrough to Divine Comprehension? 

Even Hikigaya could only breakthrough to Divine Comprehension because of the sudden rise of energy that comes from the others worlds merging with Earth Prime that enables him to breakthrough.

If it’s using the energy of the world before the world expanded and filled with energy, one could guess that the world would become scarce with energy for a few years after one Divine Comprehension leveler is born.

That would make the growth of people leveling up stagnated for that few years. It did not mean that energy would then disappear from the world. 

Because of the All Source, the energy would replenish back. The only question is when.

As such there would be division between those who were early and those who were late. Some people might not have the choice to fortify their foundation and have o choose to breakthrough almost immediately when they can.

It would not be like during the early times when they could delay in breaking through, opting for more Seeds or Disk to form before breaking through. 

Because unlike in the earlier time when the Fall began, if they wait and then when they wanted to breakthrough and then finding out that the energy of the world is insufficient, it would make them stuck in their level for years.

This is the energy distribution problem.

With more people breaking though to higher level, the energy of the world decreased. Everyone believed that it would delay the progress of human ability and there is even some extreme suggestion like forcing the Disk Formation levelers to go to outer space and seek their fortune in distant stars as to give the chance for the others in the world

That was the situation of the world before the Multiversal Convergence

But with the Multiversal Convergence suddenly the whole world was filling to the brim with energy that it had even transformed the earth in a magical way.

In each and every thing that exist on Earth right now, there is energy. 

And it is not only the energy of the Milky Way galaxy that is in this world but also foreign kind of energy which could open a new door of leveling up or a new path to practicing for the others 

The Multiversal Convergence allow Earth Prime not to worry about the distribution of energy any longer. 

But at the same time, it is also because of Multiversal Convergence that they have to fight against these invaders that did not come in tens of thousands but in millions.

Jean did not know how to feel right now. 

he understood that there is benefits to the multiversal convergence but he also could not ignore that people, tens of thousands and maybe millions of people had died as the consequences of opening the barriers between worlds. 

He had tried to stop Azief and Will but he failed in that. 

He did not know what to do now. Azief had returned back from his trip into time and with his prowess calm down the world and eradicated the invaders.

Jean should be thankful. But he did not feel the least bit thankful. Instead the only thing he could do was sigh

He knows that Death Monarch probably would have to face a similar being of power level but Jean did not rush to help. 

Even though the Multiversal Convergence did help solve the energy distribution problem, this help was not given intentionally. Instead it is the consequences of a mistake.

Even then Jean still did not know whether Will and Azief going to the future is a mistake or not. He too believes that there is a secret in the future. 

Because each time he had tried to divine the future, he would always find himself being blocked and all he could see was nothing.

Of course, his ability is not like the Oracle. What he was seeking was the time flow. And while he could not see the future like the oracle he could sense changing time flow.

That was what he was trying to see and sense when he divines the future. But all he got was radio silence.

Either, there was nothing he could see in the vision or in the future they might be nothing left.

Jean look at the sky and his eyes look at the distance seeing titanic form of Divine Comprehension leveler in the distance. 

He did not see it like other people. 

He is bending the Space around him so that he could see the titanic avatar of both Death Monarch and Illusionist Archmage in the other continent

Today, Death Monarch had saved a lot of people. 

But his action eventually leads to this tragedy. 

Whether he is intentional or not, whether he knows the consequences of his action or not, it would not be wrong to say that Azief action had led to the current outcome.

Jean is trying to rationalize Azief action but he doesn’t know if he could. 

So, even though he could see that Katarina is flying in the air heading toward Death Monarch, Jean did not do anything. 

He retracts back his Time Avatar, sending them back to their time as he descends down from the clouds and landed on the wrecked city street

He looks around him and there is pain in his eyes

The city around him is burning, as there are buildings that is on the verge of crumbling down, there is corpses everywhere in the streets, all over the sideways, some were impaled on the sharp end of a weapon, other were flattened. 

Some of these corpses were fully formed, other corpse lost their limbs somewhere along the roads.

Even though there are no more demonic creatures in the air and there is no more invader from the Otherworlds shooting at them with guns, the people in the streets did not seem to notice the victory. 

Probably because there is no one win in a war. Everyone will lose someone.

They all cried, mourning the death of their sons, their daughters, their fathers and mothers and their relative. 

Seeing so much sorrow and the effect of such a war even though it is not his first time, it is still disconcerting for Jean.

He wishes that he could reverse time and revive back all of the people that has lost their lives but he knows he is not capable of such power.

But he wishes about it strongly. He wishes that he could return back to that half an hour before and sealed that moment.

He would seal it for half an hour and then when Azief cleans the European continent out of the invader, he could unseal that time 

Jean is actually thinking of sealing time in one particular moment and unsealed it. But for that he needs to go back to that time. To rewind time back to that particular moment, then seal that moment in time

The more he thinks about it, the stronger the wish became and then his eyes seems to be gleaming. 

He seems to be understanding something and the moment that understanding come, the Laws around him were stirred. 

Space around him bends and the tem flow around him slowly become altered

Around him slowly time is slowing down. 

The sound is slowing down, the movement of the wind, the swaying of flames and the movement of people were all slowing down

‘I could do it’ Jean thought to himself a torrential storms of energy poured inside him. His entire body seems to bend the space to its ultimate limits.

Then a burst of explosion happens as a purple waves of energy sweeps all across the city in that one moment.

Time stopped and Space and Time seems to be altered. 

Things that were destroyed slowly reassembling itself back. 

The few portals that were destroyed suddenly appeared back and everting seems to rewind back in time.

The environment was also changed.

Cause and effect is being meddled with right now and Destiny and fate is also affected.

Jena is trying to do something that is akin of reviving the dead.

But Jean seems to isolate himself from that rewinding effect as he is still in his original position in the streets while the whole world around him rewinding back

The scene was exactly like half an hour ago. The space rips just opened and the demonic creatures started wanting to attack.

But they did not move yet. Because Jean did not want them to move just yet. And this feat is not as easy as he makes it out to be.

Right now in the sky, like a painting there is the space rips and the demonic creatures coming out of that space rips, ready to fight. 

Below the city is as it is half an hour ago, still very beautiful and there were some people looking at the sky feeling very shocked seeing the arrival of the demonic creatures. 

Because they are all freezing in time, they look like a large painting of what happens half an hour ago, pasted upon the world scenery

The effect of this Time Rewind is only around the area of this city. 

Jean look at this scene and then gritting his teeth, with sweat pouring down from his forehead and dripping from his back, he shouted with all of his might, instilling his will and his wishes in that shout

‘SEAL!’ And in an explosion of powerful energy of Laws that seems to affect Time and Space, Destiny and Fate, the scene up there in the sky slowly like it is being cut on the edges of reality separated itself from the clear calm blue skies of the present. 

There is like a scene of war that is superimposed onto a peaceful looking expanse of the clouds

On the Asian continent, the Law Avatar of Hikigaya spoke in an amused expression as his eyes see what happened to that particular area in Europe

‘Oh. That is interesting’ he said. Azief in Antarctica at that time said 

‘You too. That is possible. Because they did not die for too long and reality is in chaos right now. I guess you could do it’ And then Azief chuckles a bit. 

In his pair of eyes there is the image of Jean surrounded by the Laws of the world, around him the corpse of people as the wind around his body affecting Time, Destiny and Fate. 

‘I guess the world will be balanced even after this. And if its him, I guess I need to answer the world after this. I should at least gain the right to speak in front of the world’ And then he averts his gaze away from Jean.

There is only one reason that two of the Divine Comprehension leveler would pay attention to Jean. 

Jean is also breaking through as he found his Grand Path. 

One could argue that his transformation would be even more stable than Hikigaya because his way of cultivating his power is different from Hikigaya and he derived it from his own Grand Path.

At the same time when the Time Monarch rewind the area, there are a few life forms that was unaffected with the Time Rewind.

There are two creatures that Jean did not notice that is able to ignore the effect of the Time Laws.

Flying in the sky with eyes shining green is a black raven who is looking at this scene intently. The raven speaks

‘The Time God has seen his Grand Path’ 

The raven speaks like he was reporting to something and then it flaps its wing and landed on a branch of tree. 

This raven is not affected by the purple mist and so is the serpent that slither beneath the tree. 

These two creatures, the raven and the serpent both look toward Jean in the middle of the city and look at him with great concentration.

Jean finally found his Grand Path and is breaking through to Divine Comprehension as he seals the moment of the fall of the city as he tries to alter the fate and destiny of the people of the city
