Chapter 1302: Temporal Flow

"And where is he?"

Idan once again carefully searched for Crowey’s presence in the Kingdom, but could not find him.

"Did he just walk away without even saying goodbye?"

Idan’s gaze fell on the permanent Access Portal. The only way out, as he remembered, uncontrolled by anyone.

The portal was connected to the Eastern Continent and led to the garden of his grandmother Eleanor’s estate.

"He didn’t go to the Eastern Continent, did he?" Idan doubted that Crowe had gone to the Eastern Continent.

It was only then that he remembered another way to leave the Kingdom.

"The Dungeon Gate!"

When entering the Gate, everyone has a choice between a Private Lobby or a Public Lobby.

"The Kingdom’s Dungeon Gate is connected to the Central Gate. Hence, Crowey could have just chosen the Public Lobby to return to the Central Continent."

But without any proof, Idan couldn’t say for sure that Crowey had left that way.

He helped Crowey get rid of Darkia’s influence, but he still hasn’t made a deal or agreement with him. Idan was a little afraid that Crowey might leak information about the Kingdom to others, although he also hoped inside that he wouldn’t do that.

Crowey was not added to his friends list in the {Local Systems Network}. But others should have it.

Idan wrote to Arslan and Irene, asking them to find out where Crowe was.

The answer was not long in coming.

"He really left the Kingdom." With a sigh, Idan read the message from Arslan.

In his letter, Crowey wrote to him that yes, he had returned to the Central Continent to sort out the chaos within his Raven Guild. And, which made Idan laugh, Crowey wrote that when the time came, he would come visit.

"The Raven Guild..." whispered Idan.

As he knew, there were seven famous guilds in total, which were led by 10 Heroes of the Federation.

To date, the Kingdom has united two of these seven guilds, the Queens and the Flower Gardens, and has absorbed another one, the Dojo Guild.

The Titans, the Defenders, Raven, and the Gemini.

The Titans Guild was led by Nathan and Rachel. The Kingdom had friendly relations with them. Idan had heard from the latest news that the Titans were busy dealing with the consequences of the Third Disaster.

As for the Defenders, Arslan’s former guild was under the rule of the Morgan family and directly in Octavian’s hands.

The Raven Guild, like the Dojo Guild, was a small, mysterious guild. Idan and the others didn’t know much about him.

And the last Guild is Gemini.

Idan has not yet met with their leaders, the twin brothers. During the Third Disaster, the Gemini Guild was active, but there was almost no news about the actions of the brothers themselves.

Idan had good reason to suspect that the Gemini Guild was under Darkia’s direct control.

Nathan and Crowey had already been captured by her, and Idan had helped them. Darkia had agreed too easily back then.

A system notification distracted him from his thoughts.

[Host, your order has been delivered].

"As always, it’s fast," — Idan smiled at Christina’s efficiency.

"Considering that she added us to her list of VIP clients, I’m not surprised."

With that, he disappeared, heading to the Guild building to deliver the {Hub} and {Whisper Talismans}. At the same time, we will discuss the integration of the Dojo Guild members.

The process of registering Guild members on the Personal Server has already begun.

After receiving the {Whisper Talismans} from Idan, Leo immediately sent a message to all the registered members to come and receive their Talismans.

As for the members of the Dojo Guild, they decided to join the Kingdom as a subordinate Guild led by their Leader Ren.

Having finished with all this, Idan moved to the prison. Deliver the {Hub} and {Whisper Talismans} to Sierra.

"Already?" Sierra stared in surprise at the {Hub} and 50 {Whisper Talismans} that Idan handed her.

Idan nodded silently.

Sierra’s surprise quickly changed to her usual smile. She accepted them without any embarrassment and put them in her magic bag.

"This will make it easier for me to coordinate my people, including the Prina," she smiled.

At the mention of Prina, Idan remembered that he hadn’t seen her for a long time.

"By the way, where is she?"

"Prina? She’s in the Eastern Continent right now, going to negotiate with two holders of True Fires," Sierra replied and added, "If everything goes well, I’ll get one of the six True Fires you want soon."

"Oh! Which one is it?" Idan was excited.

"Blue Fire," — Sierra said.

Blue fire, the fire of reason, will, control, cold concentration. The True Fire required for the evolution of the Fire Fox into the Blue Flame Kitsune.

"Look how excited you are," Sierra laughed, amused by his reaction. "Okay, go ahead, I’ll let you know when Prina gets back."

"Okay," Idan nodded and teleported back to his house.

Where he quickly discovered that Arabel was no longer there. The children were still with their grandparents.

Using his power over the Kingdom, Idan quickly found Arabel away from the center and teleported to her.

"Oh, Dan, you’re finally here." Arabel noticed his arrival immediately.

Idan smiled at her, and then his gaze fell on the strange domed barrier in front of her.

"Have you been checking Temporal Flow?"

"Yes," Arabel confirmed. "I’ve already partially tested what it’s capable of."

"But first, Dan," Arabel made an offended face with a touch of anger. "My parents kicked me out by force, giving me only a short time to be with MY children!"

She stamped her foot.

"They act like they’re their children, not their grandchildren!"

Idan froze. For some reason, he was familiar with his wife’s current behavior.

"Is she really jealous of her children and their parents?"

"Hmm..." Arabel narrowed her eyes.

She was waiting for her husband’s support and for him to calm her down, but instead he looked at her with that strange look and was silent.

And, of course, she didn’t like it.

In her narrowed gaze, Idan noticed a glint of madness energy.

Knowing what to do with his wife when she was in such a state, he stepped forward and gently hugged her.

She barely showed resistance and gave up.

"Belle. If you really want to be with the kids that much, then let’s go back and get them from your parents," he suggested.

"Huh?" Arabel looked up. Her eyes twitched, and the brilliance of the energy of madness began to fade and disappear.

Yes, she wanted to be with her children even more, to hold them in her arms, to feed them personally. But at the same time, the other side of her understood that they needed to prepare for the upcoming mass teleportation and deal with the consequences of Ascension. And that it’s better for children to be with their grandparents.

Pulling herself together, she quietly uttered one word.:

"No."

Idan, meanwhile, smiled with satisfaction, as if he had expected such an answer.

Then he looked at the barrier and decided to change the subject.

"So, what did you find out?"

Arabel looked at him, and then at the barrier.:

"The Kingdom, like Essora, can create a small area with accelerated or delayed time," she began.

"Unlike Essora, the size of the area created by the Kingdom is many times larger, and importantly, the Kingdom can create a stable area with double time acceleration or double time deceleration at no cost, where several people can enter at once."

"Oh!" Idan was pleasantly surprised, even though the acceleration or deceleration of time was only two times.

"That’s not all {Temporal Flow} is capable of," Arabel said with a smile. "Double acceleration and deceleration are not the limit. A Kingdom can create an area with a tenfold acceleration or deceleration of time, but only for a certain amount of time."

"Did you find out how long?" asked Idan immediately.

"System said that at the current stage, the Kingdom can create an area with a tenfold time acceleration and maintain the area for one day," Arabel replied.

"One day..." whispered Idan.

"It’s ten days inside the area," Arabel added. "After this day, the area does not disappear, but returns to a two-fold acceleration, but the acceleration ability goes into reverse for several days, and everything depends on the rate of energy recovery by the Kingdom."

"Okay, that’s what we need right now," Idan smiled and kissed Arabel on the forehead with joy.

Then he released her and pulled out the vial, and looked at Arabel, and asked:

"There’s just a day or two left before the mass teleportation. Why don’t we take full advantage of this?"

Arabel stared at the vial in his hands.

A bloodline potion.

"Is that what I think it is?" she asked, pointing to the bottle.

"Yes," Idan nodded and laughed. "I think it’s time for this world to meet these two."

Upon hearing this answer, Arabel smiled broadly and pulled out her bottle.

"You know, you’re right, darling," she said. "It’s time for a Mad Vampire King and a Mad Dragon Queen to appear in this world."
