Fire Mage

Chapter 536: Confusion

At that moment, Professor recalled the previous battle and soon frowned.

'Is it due to my wish spell? But I only wished to get the same spell on that blonde-haired man, right?' At that moment, an absurd thought appeared in his mind.

'Wait! Is he also experiencing a similar type of repeated day? Impossible! What kind of spell is this?! It looks more like a loop-' His face stiffened all of a sudden.

At that moment, Professor recalled a particular taboo existence capable of creating such a spell.

'There is only one monster who is capable of creating such a miraculous 'Time' spell, but didn't he die eons ago?'

'But if not Udnir, who created this spell? Maybe the newly born Angel of Time?' His face turned grim.

'Possible. After all, there are rumors about this Angel being the next incarnation of the Time God spreading everywhere. But what is he doing here? Also, isn't he a Royal Elf? But the person who confronted me earlier was a human, right?' He also recalled the 'Time-Stop' spell and got more confused.

'So, I'm currently in the 'Time-Loop' spell cast by that blonde-haired man, huh. What kind of concept is this?' He was baffled inside.

After a pause, he took another puff and shook his head.

'Now, what should I do now? Searching for him and killing him won't solve the problem. My only way is to find a way and break this 'Time-Loop' spell myself.' But Professor knew it wasn't an easy task, even for his original self.

'I'm nothing more than an avatar with no connection to my main body or my Divine Domain.' Due to some reasons, he and all other Edhen Children organization members used different methods to infiltrate this world and couldn't even get help from outside.

'I'm on my own now.'

He hurriedly stood up from the bed, moved towards the nearby cabin, and took out a bunch of notebooks. He then went near the wooden table, sat on it, and recalled all the array formulas.

'I have a memory of 535,830 disruption array formulas. But I don't have time to check everything.' He muttered inwardly and activated his [Absolute Recall] skill.

The next instant, he saw that his lifelong memories about 'Disruption Magic Arrays' appeared in the form of clouds and arranged in an orderly manner.

He removed the useless and low-level magic array formulas a moment later and only focused on 'Time' related ones.

'5,590 formulas are there. But most of them are for blocking future vision array formulas. But what I'm experiencing is a 'Time-Loop' spell. It should be more like an advanced version of the future vision spell.' Nodding his head, he also removed most of the 'Future Vision' blocking arrays and finally selected a total of 47 magic array formulas.

'I don't know which one would break this spell, but I have to check them one by one now.' He muttered to himself and started writing a single array formula in the notebook.

Once he was done, he moved towards the bed and stored it inside his space ring.

He also stored other furniture in his space ring and made the room empty.

Then, he touched his silver bracelet, linked his mind with the soul imprint, and contacted John.

A few seconds later, a familiar voice came from the other side.

"What happened, Professor?"

"John, I want you to go-" At that moment, he realized that he knew nothing about his enemy!

"Forget it. Just increase the security in all areas and tell me if anything abnormal happens." He said in a grim tone.

"Yes, Professor," John responded from the other side and cut off the connection.

Meanwhile, Professor once again touched the silver bracelet, shifted his attention towards the soul imprint, and used a unique number on the communication device.

A few seconds later, a middle-aged man's voice came from the other side.

"Good morning, Professor. We are currently arranging the weapons for the mission and will leave the building in 20 minutes."

"Don't forget the timing, Hayden. You've to assassinate Elder Seer at 7.19 A.M. Not a single minute delay or in advance." Professor said in a cold tone and then added.

"If anything abnormal happens, notice me. Also, watch out for any blonde-haired man."

Saying so, he cut off the connection and took a deep breath.

"Blue Eye array."

Muttering, he raised his hand and drew a unique rune character in thin air.

...

It was around 7.00 A.M.

A luxurious carriage entered Dew Street and moved on the dirt road slowly.

Meanwhile, Charles peeked outside through the glass door and focused his gaze on a particular mansion building.

Like earlier, Charles appeared in Julius's appearance and observed the surrounding areas like a hawk.

'I need to find a way and kill that Hayden this time.' But unless he activated that [Time-Stop] ability, Charles knew that he had zero chance of killing him.

'That guy is a Rank-6 Mystic.' A gloomy look appeared on his face.

'Although I could use [Time Stop] ability once again to kill him, that Professor won't allow it.' So, if Charles wanted to kill Hayden, he had to get much closer and finish him off before Professor nullify the 'Time Stop' ability!

Otherwise, he would fail and die at the hand of the Divine Order members like the last time.

While he was thinking of his next plan, the carriage continued to move on the dirt road while making creaking noise from time to time and soon arrived closer towards the compound gate.

At that moment, Jessie noticed that Charles was still in deep thoughts and woke him up by shaking him.

"Are you alright, mister?" She asked in concern.

Meanwhile, Charles blinked his eyes, waved his hand, and opened the carriage door.

But as he was about to walk out of the carriage, he suddenly thought of something and stopped.

"You aren't going?" Jessie asked in curiosity.

"No. It's better to act cautiously." He paused for a moment and soon asked.

"Do you anything that could make a Rank-5 Mystic unconscious in seconds?"

Jessie froze for a moment as she heard his question and hurriedly nodded.

"I have a potion in my space ring. But how are you going to use it?" She asked in confusion.

Meanwhile, Charles smiled mysteriously and patiently waited for the carriage to move across the mansion's compound wall.

Once he confirmed that the gatekeepers weren't paying attention towards the carriage, he stuck his head out and sent out an order.

"Park the carriage near the left side tree, Oliver."

"Yes, My Lord."

Saying so, Oliver drove the carriage towards the opposite side of the road and parked near the tree.
