In the end, Sauros made a cut on his index finger and then infused the blood with his mana before writing a rune on the armors. It seed now that they would be able to use so of his powers while the rune stayed active.
"It will only last for a few hours, but with this rune, we will be able to move faster when the enemy or their projectiles get too close," Sauros said.
That was really convenient… one could only imagine how fearso a wrong person could be with that kind of power. Aion changed to the lancer class again to see that power in action when one enemy approached.
The creature got so close, but once it was two ters away, it looked like it had begun to move in slow motion. With all his might, Ajon pierced the head of the creature until his spear reached the brain. At the sa ti, the weapon absorbed the body.
You obtained 1200 experience points.
"It is kind of weird to see a monster appearing and disappearing all of a sudden after getting close," Seris said.
Aion decided to ignore that and forget the whole thing… it would be better if he focused on Force Release. He also had to hurry up now and think of so ways to deal with the influence of other people in other periods of ti. So of them have privileged information, but he didn't.
"Are you going to use the silent treatnt on us now?" Seris asked.
"Would you rather listen to leashing out my anger on you two?" Aion asked. "I have better things to do with my ti, sorry."
In the end, Aion must have been dreaming when he thought that those two could really beco his friends since their backgrounds had so similarities. He can only count on himself to achieve his goal, and he can't trust anyone with his abilities and secrets. His mother would only be burdened if she learned too much… Aion couldn't give the enemies more reasons to target her.
In any case, thanks to the effects of the blood rune, the group began to advance quite fast. They did it in complete silence since Aion didn't feel like talking, and those two didn't think that their actions and decisions were wrong. While it was true their logs caused so problems across the ages, they also helped them save a lot of people and solve many problems. In fact, until now, it helped a lot more than it caused problems, so it couldn't be a mistake.
Since Aion was even more fearso with that power, Sauros and Seris didn't have to fight for several hours, and they just followed him until the rune's effects wore off. Around the sa ti, their runes also stopped working… they didn't think that Aion would be able to do that much by himself.
"We need to rest for a while. Sauros can't use that rune often," Seris declared.
"We keep moving. I can deal with the monsters while you guys stay on the platform," Aion said. "Ti is of the essence. The faster we move, the fewer chances will be given to others to get on the way."
"You don't get how ti works. Even if soone knows about the future, why do you think that soone that knows about you didn't try to kill you when you were a baby or sothing?" Seris asked.
"Because they would need to take the statues first. That way, they might get a chance to get rid of them," Aion said. "Thus, getting rid of all the problems at the sa ti when they are on the spot."
"That is right," Seris said.
"That is right, what? What is your point?" Aion asked.
"Sothing like ti travel magic isn't sothing that happens that easily and once it happens, the whole world will suffer its effects. Nothing like that has happened until now," Seris said.
"Your reasoning is flawed since ssages have been sent to the past when you said that the statues are supposed to seal ti travel magic," Aion said.
"Well… not completely… it only prevents people from traveling," Seris said.
"Then what about the soul returning to the past to take over its younger body?" Aion asked.
"You sure like to ask the difficult questions," Seris said while frowning.
"You guys are so stupid that you can't even realize the obvious," Aion said. "From what I can tell, the statues are relics that are losing power and won't be that useful in the future, and people from other periods are just trying to get rid of them to be able to move without restraints."
Seris was left speechless. That was a theory that Sauros told her a long ti ago after studying events related to that for many years… as expected, Aion was truly different from them since he could guess that much so easily.
As for Aion, he was thinking that one didn't have to be a genius to understand that. He wasn't one, but he watched too many movies…
While Sauros was resting and drawing the map of the dungeon, Aion and Seris kept fighting the monsters. Still, they soon had to stop because Aion was moving too fast, and he spent more mana, and the cold wind was starting to affect them.
"Since that rune represents my very basic power, writing takes a toll on so that I can use it once per day, and then I need several hours of rest to give my mind the chance to recover," Sauros explained.
"It doesn't matter," Aion said. "Soon enough, I will be able to take those things down without your help."
Although they were more dangerous than all the other monsters, those creatures couldn't use magic, and that was their major flaw. Their real issue was the fact that they could run sixty ters per second, so only the best-ranged attacks could kill them. However, Aion was increasing his strength…
