“The Titans were born from the transformation of the will of the planet. After falling, they rged with the planet again and continued to maintain the order of nature,” said Cronos with a solemn expression. “I am ti. I exist forever and have no beginning and no end, but I can no longer be perceivable by the creatures on this planet. What you see now is the remnants of my power, a reflection of the transformation of ti within this specific space.”
Cronos shone with a faint silver light, echoing the starlight from the crack in the rock wall.
In the soft light, Evan could sense a subtle caress, along with a tinge of sadness…
Despite what Cronos said, he beca the will of the planet again, incarnating into ti.
However, it was still impossible to deny the fact that they had fallen and passed away. Evan could not help thinking that, in the face of the vast universe and endless ti, even Titans, the supre beings beyond all things, would eventually perish. Could anything else be immutable throughout eternity then?!
He was afraid not. Now thinking about it, Voldemort’s pursuit of immortality, the so-called conquest of death, was truly ludicrous.
“Well, Evan, don’t be sad about our downfall. It was a long ti ago, not sothing you should dwell on now,” said Cronos softly. “The Life-Giver once said that the final battle was the end for the Titans, but for you mortals, it was a new beginning. After the end of the reign of the Titans, this planet gradually beca full of life…”
The essence of Titans was creation. After their fall, their creations began to evolve on their own to form the earth itself.
The civilizations on the planet had indeed beco diverse and colorful, which in itself was hard to consider a bad thing.
“I can’t help but look forward to what this planet will evolve into and how far human civilizations will develop.” Cronos continued, “To be honest, according to the established order, it’s unlikely to yield such interesting outcos.”
“Well, Cronos, you just said that you’ve been here waiting for , and you’ve asked Rowena Ravenclaw to guide here,” said Evan, taking a breath and looking at the old Titan. “What are you doing this for? What do you want to do?”
He redirected the conversation back to the main topic. Even though Evan was shocked by what Cronos had revealed, he still didn’t think he had the ability to save the world. It was not because he had no such consciousness or willingness, but because he had no such ability at all or that kind of power.
After experiencing so many things, Evan felt unprecedented exhaustion. Right now, all he wished for was to smoothly graduate from Hogwarts, find an interesting job, marry Hermione, and have children. These were his simple dreams.
As for Voldemort, the vampires, the Titans, the evil gods from the void and so on, it was best to stay away from them.
“In the final battle, the Titans sealed the ancient gods back to the void at the cost of their lives, but the seal itself was incomplete,” said Cronos. “The incomplete seal caused the planet and the void to remain connected. After the last magical civilization developed to the extre, those powerful mortal spellcasters attracted the attention of the ancient gods. They searched for the traces of magic, extended their tentacles from the void back to this planet, lurking down, looking for an opportunity to escape from the confines. I need your help…”
“What do you need to do?” Evan paused, and then added, “I can’t see what I can do!”
“Don’t belittle your power, Evan. the potential that mortals have is infinite,” said Cronos. “I know you have many questions. Why did I choose you? Well, it’s because in the past I have experienced, it’s an established fact that you’ve been on the battlefield of the final battle.”
Cronos’s past was Evan’s future. Evan had no idea that he would do such crazy things in the future, going back thousands of years ago, fighting the mighty ancient gods…
He was certain that his future self must have gone mad to do such a thing!
“I t you in the past, which is sothing you haven’t really done yet, it’s really wonderful. Isn’t that the charm of ti magic?” Cronos smiled, and for Evan, it was as though he saw himself smiling in the mirror. “Don’t rush to refuse. Because of your arrival, many things have changed. In the near future, this interesting world will be destroyed. As a mber of this world, you don’t want this to happen, do you?!”
Evan nodded hesitantly. If the world were destroyed, his life would naturally cease to exist.
For his own life, the people he loved, and the things that needed to be guarded, Evan couldn’t let this happen.
But Evan was not satisfied with the reason Cronos gave him. He’d seen Evan in the final battle, and then he assud that he was the one who was destined to help the Titans against the ancient gods. This was indeed more unreliable than all Divination prophecies.
The future was changeable. If Evan chose not to do it, not to return to the final battle, then Cronos wouldn’t see Evan, and his words and this eting would be aningless…
“You still have a lot of things to do in order to prevent the world from falling into the fate I have seen,” said Cronos. He beckoned and the virtual shadow of the Ti- Turner placed on the stone table of the shrine slowly flew up. “Your task is very arduous, Evan. You have to correct the errors in the tiline at different tis to improve your strength and build up your power!”
“Ti travel?”
“To do this, you need to have a powerful Ti-Turner,” said Cronos, fiddling with the blue-glowing Ti-Turner in his hand. “This Ti-Turner is part of my own power. It will help you enter different ti nodes in the past and the future, even tis when you did not exist. You must get it. I feel my power in you. You should have used this Ti-Turner before, haven’t you?”
“I used it to go back to Hogwarts a thousand years ago.” Evan gave a brief account of the matter.
“I did give it to Rowena Ravenclaw a thousand years ago. She ca here to ask for help, hoping I could help her get rid of the strange power in her blood. She regarded that power as a curse …”
“I know about that. I’ve seen Ravenclaw’s mory before I ca back,” said Evan. “Did you help her in the end?”
“Yes, that was a very strange magical power. It didn’t belong to the Titans, nor did it belong to the ancient gods from the void. It was completely different from the power of the warlocks in the last magical era. It was a power that you mortals naturally gained in the course of evolution,” said Cronos, raising his head and looking up at the gap in the rock, “The source of its power cos from there!”
