"It is not rude if it was accidental. I did not even know that it was your past anyways." Adrian replied.
"Who told you that it was my past?" Koronn stated.
"From the way that you are acting, I can easily tell because you have the face of soone that does not care but has the aura of wanting to kill ." Adrian replied.
"Just because you have seen my past does not an that you should pity ." Koronn stated.
"If you want my pity then I will give it to you but if you do not then I will not waste my ti. I have other things that need to be done and getting out of this place is one of them." Adrian replied truthfully to which Koronn laughed.
"No wonder you are my favorite young demon. I will prepare for our departure because those things that you attracted will not stay there for long." Koronn stated with a smile as he looked at the Ti Wraiths.
"Why did you take too long to return though? The others said that you would be gone for a week at most." Adrian asked.
"Why are you asking?" Koronn asked back.
"I want to know since I was the one pushed into this area where you could potentially be locked in for the rest of my life. I believe I at least need an explanation for being suddenly pushed to doing this." Adrian exclaid.
"I guess I could tell you because you can actually keep your mouth shut. I am not returning because I want to know more about my past. I want to know who my father is because I did not know him that well. I know that my mother was a djinn, but I know that my father is not. He had mastery over temporal magic, and I know that the River of Ti keeps a collection of everything that transpired in the world." Koronn stated as he proceeded to create a magic circle below their feet.
"Did you find out?" Adrian asked only to be t wit a sad smile from Koronn.
"Not really. It seems that I do not have access to the records of the River of Ti despite my great mastery over temporal magic itself. I did peer into so of the mories as I was able to see my mother's face that I was not able to see.
Anyways, how did you enter the River of Ti? I could enter because of my unique lineage and being here when I as but a child but that is not the sa for you. You suddenly beca such an interesting experintal subject all of a sudden." Koronn stated as his focused suddenly shifted towards Adrian and it made the latter shudder.
"Wait! You an not all demons can enter into the River of Ti?" Adrian asked as he was inford that only Arch Demons could potentially survive the trip.
"Did those old farts not tell you? Only a Noblesse will be able to safely arrive here, and they would still have a chance of losing an arm or a leg. They will be able to survive to regenerate it but the barrier protecting the River of Ti is very harsh and powerful. Now, it makes
even more curious about you." Koronn stated.
"Maybe it was due to my Asmodian blood purity." Adrian replied.
"Even Asmodians stay clear of the River of Ti as they will still be damaged to so extent. The more powerful you are, then the more resistance that you will get. Did you feel anything when you first got sent here? Tell
in full detail as it would take so ti for
to finish mapping our escape since I never needed to carry soone with ." Koronn stated.
"I felt all of my body getting torn to shreds but my core would suddenly release a burst of energy to keep everything intact. I did not feel anything when I actually arrived here at the River of Ti. It only felt like passing through a rift or sothing." Adrian replied to which Koronn only nodded to his answers while continuing in creating the magic circle.
"Since I asked you sothing, why not ask
more?" Koronn stated as he knew that Adrian will not be satisfied with just a couple of questions.
"What happened to you? Maybe seeing your past did sothing. So, did you at least see the face of your father?" Adrian asked as he was also a bit curious about the man that seed to be Koronn's father.
"I was not able to see his face as if a slight fog was blocking my view of him. He did exude sothing that only specific beings can exude. He exuded divine energy, but I am not able to fully verify it if it is exactly that. He should at least be a demigod or a god by that standard. Tell , did you see sothing that I was not able to?" Koronn stated his observations about the details that he saw.
Adrian was also unable to see the face of Koronn's father despite seeing the father's full figure clearly. He did have this familiar tingling feeling that he already encountered soone like that. Adrian has encountered a lot of gods and demigods but each of them exude a different aura so to speak.
But for Adrian, he had this feeling that he already encountered soone like Koronn's father. He did not want to say anything in getting Koronn's hopes up because even he is not sure. If he knows one thing, it is that expectations are sowhat more painful than not knowing anything. The more you long for sothing to happen, then the bigger the disappointnt that you will experience in the end.
"Nothing in particular but I did see a beast that supposedly killed them. It has the modus operandi of a distorted god if I have seen one. If they were that powerful to have sent you to the River of Ti back, then they were not ordinary to say the least. Even if we say that you are special, creating a powerful barrier that can withstand the impact of the River of Ti's dinsional barrier is at the realm of gods." Adrian replied.
"Even you have the sa conclusion as . I bet you could also feel it inside my body now that you have so as well." Koronn stated.
"Yes. I could clearly see it as soon as I was able to feel divine energy. You are actually a demigod, are you not?" Adrian stated.
"I was born from a god or a demigod, but a Noblesse is sothing that I am not. Sothing inside of
is sealing my divine energy from leaking out. Another reason I ca here to find a way to unlock the seal." Koronn stated in a serious tone.
"Why? Will it not be unsealed if you fight against your last inner demon?" Adrian replied.
"That is the trick. My last Inner Demon is locked inside that very seal which is why I need to unlock it to ensure that I can beco a Noblesse that I knew that I was destined to beco. The gods could now descend but there is currently no Noblesse in full power in the Daemos." Koronn stated in eyes full of desire to get stronger.
Adrian knows why the Daemos Elders wants to beco stronger because the only living Noblesse, Pann, has yet to regain his full power. For now, lesser gods could descend to beco a demigod but how long will that status quo last. The Daemos Elders know that they should beco stronger, but they seem to have blockers for each of them.
Sothing is blocking the Daemos Elders from actually becoming a Noblesse, but Adrian does not know the reasons. Pann has touched up on that subject when Adrian once asked why the three elders have yet to beco Noblesse, but he was only replied with a wry smile. Now, Adrian knows at least one of the elder's reasons of not becoming a Noblesse.
It is not that they do not want to beco one, but they are held back by sothing. Adrian knows that becoming a Noblesse is no easy feat because he was the first Arch Demon in a long ti. There have been a few promising Greater Demons that could beco Arch Demons, but they were not yet at that stage. The elders are by no ans weak as even Pann said that they could beco Noblesse class.
"To think that I would open up to you here in the River of Ti at all places. Seeing you beco an Arch Demon and defeating the Horsen of the Apocalypse might have triggered sothing in
to beco more powerful. The Daemos are the only family that I have right now, and I will willingly give up everything to protect all of you. Although do not tell that old fart Ascalor that I said that." Koronn stated with a genuine smile as the magic circle activated to send them out of the River of Ti.
