"If any one of us can kill Enverous, it's him. So we should kill him right now," Soya said in front of the gathering. As soon as Soya mentioned the name Enverous, the whole court went silent with a sharp intake of breath. Everyone went mum, one could hear a pin drop in that. "Master, I don't think such a pathetic creature can kill a demon like Enverous. Even the accumulated powers of all the five emperors didn't work in front of him, and when our princess can easily defeat such a guy, where does this poor man stand in front of a demon like Enverous," Agnes said to the Emperor while looking at Avon with disgust.
"Anyways, at the end of the day, he has to die. So, why should we stain our hands with his blood? We should throw him in front of Enverous. If he is lucky enough, he might escape from his grasp, if not, he dies. Either way, we are winning," Soya explained to her father and the rest of the gathering. Then for the first time, Soya spoke to Avon through telepathy. "Whatever you do, you will have to follow me!" Soya said, assertively. Listening to her and her tone, Avon got really upset with her.
"This girl is just wasting my time. I will find Nancy all by myself," as he thought that in his head, Avon broke free from the shackles of the chain and made a chained dagger out of thin air. He threw his dagger towards Soya as it hit her crown and it dropped to the floor. Avon opened a time portal and was about to teleport himself out of there, but strangely, he felt chains getting wrapped around his feet, as someone dragged him down to the ground. Everything started repeating on its own, from the time he came here to the present moment. Just like the first time, the guards and soldiers came running towards him and surrounded him. And again, he heard Soya shouting from a distance, "Stop Commander! Don't give him such an easy death. Father, I want this person to suffer for the rest of his life."
Avon got into thinking, what was happening to him, why he wasn't able to go back to his own timeline. As he was thinking, again those same words, and same expressions started repeating themselves. Again he was taken to prison, and as it got darker, Soya came to meet him. Avon slowly understood that it can't be Soya who was controlling his timeline, it has to be someone else, but who?
