Chapter 11 - How slow 'Time' really is.

All of time stopped and no one could move except Chronos and Borius! Arthur could speak but he could not feel anything around him and felt empty. Borius then said "My real name is Tengen; I called myself Chris so that my identity was kept secret. Oh and Arthur, Borius, one of the 12 is me! I don't like that name but that is what humans named me…"

Arthur was shook but not surprised as even greater things had unfolded and he asked Tengen, "if your powers were taken then how are you able to command Chronos? the god of time?"

Tengen replied "well there are somethings wrong with that question! First of all Chronos is no longer the god of time!"

Arthur could not believe it! He was amazed at the fact that 'God's could change as he had never even heard or thought about that!

"Well, for humans and many other beasts, monsters and other beings Chronos is still the god of time! There is no 'god's messengers' present here of course and you people are just too stupid!"

Arthur asked Tengen is awe "what are god's messengers? Tell me! I need to know everything! Tell me everything about it!"

But then the conversation is suddenly cut as Arthur wakes up in front of Karasu and Sarah.

"don't just day dream! Man, how pathetic humans are!" Karasu angrily said to Arthur.

Mesmerised by his Dream, Arthur wonders what it was. He had never experienced something like that and it seemed so real to him… He said out loud "I remember running to my house and the memory I have after that event was seeing my father dead… beheaded, I don't remember what happened when I was inside that house… you two… do you know anything about 'god's messengers'?

Karasu and Sarah were shocked! They had only heard of this once and they were told that this information can alter dimensions if it were to be let out! "were did you hear about that you damn human!" Sarah screamed in anger and asked him while kicking him to the mud.

TRANSITION TO MITSURU AND RITSUME

A lady wearing a kimono with purple eyes and a silky hair asks Toshi with anger and a sign of disbelief! "So what do we do about these kids? One of them is just muscles and some leftover burned skin and one of his eyes are even missing! The other one is unconscious and has suffered damage that is beyond repair but still his outsides look fine even though most of his organs ruptured and has a puddle of blood in his brain! What is this Toshi! And you call your self a guild master? Pathetic! I can't believe it! And moreover the girl is completely fine without any scratches or wounds even though she was in the middle of this massacre!"

Toshi was also surprised and could not understand what had happened so he replied to her with a low voice "So-… sorry…. I don't know what happened and well, what I do know is that these three are special!"

The lady could not believe what he said and with frustration she replied "special? OH OF COURSE I CAN SEE THAT! No normal person can be breathing normally with burned skin and ruptured organs as if nothing had happened! I mean that blonde boy doesn't even have a heart! And he is still alive!'

Toshi then says to her with a serious face "that one performed a 'ritual of the demon servants' with immense perfection! And we don't have any clue as to how he knew or learned about performing it…"

She could not believe what he said "your face… you are serious aren't you?" this has just gotten more troublesome huh? And what about the other kid? what did he do?"

Toshi then sat down and said "we don't know exactly what it is but from what we observed from the (Akhil plz put the whatever examination name here I forgot lol sorry) he appears to use some kind of old magic old dark type magic and…"

"and" the lady asks him as she sat down and smoked

"one of the seven forbidden magic! The blood magic. And he is capable of using techniques as well…"

The lady replied "so he has the forbidden blood magic…well that is hardly surprising to me after hearing about the other kid but what troubles me really is his ability to use 'techniques'! even just being able to train your body to withstand the pressure of using techniques is a big thing and not just that, it's said that techniques can only be learned in three places in this whole world! And what's more disturbing is that over 18 million people have gone to learn it in 3000 years and only 6,200 have successfully learned it! 7.2 million have returned back alive but with limbs and organs missing and no one knows if the others are alive or not! So how?"

Toshi was a bit bored of this talk and said "you know Sakura, your tendency to over explain things hasn't stopped huh? But still… to think that only 0.3 percentage of people have survived it and learned techniques… this kid…what has he gone through?"

And while they were having their conversation, Ritsume woke up and stepped out of the medical bed he was sleeping in. The two were beyond shocked and Toshi stood in front of Sakura and was ready to attack but that's when Ritsume said "Guild m-…mas-…ter.? Is…th-…th-…"

Hearing this, Toshi and Sakura were shocked but also disgusted as when he spoke blood came from his mouth and he was biting his lips and gums inside his mouth and tearing it apart!

Toshi said to him "don't talk! Stay there! For yours and our safety! Kid" but Sakura interrupted him and went to Ritsume and helped him back to bed and said "please rest! Your wounds are serious you'll die!'

Toshi did not like that Sakura was putting herself in danger but he knew that she was strong enough to protect herself so he too went near Ritsume with two chairs and sat next to his bed.

Without hesitation, Sakura said to Ritsume "I know you want to talk! I know you don't want to be seen as someone who is weak. So… tell us! Tell us everything you want to say!" and sat down.

Ritsume smiled and replied to Sakura "th-…thankyou…for lett-…ing me…speak! I know it-…is uncom…uncomfortable for yo-…to talk to…me like this so-…"

Ritsume's body then starts to twist and turn and his skin grows back and all his burns were healed! Blood that flowed from his mouth flowed back inside him and he looked as though nothing had happened to him!

Both Toshi and Sakura were terrified of Ritsume's regenerative ability and Sakura asked him "what are you? I felt no magic when you regenerated! It is as if your body… did it on command!"

And Toshi asked him "please tell us… what power do you hold? How did you end up like that?"

Ritsume smiled and said "well, I do have a peculiar power but it is not mine… I do not know when or where I got it from!"

Toshi stood up from his chair and asked "please tell us! This information is extremely valuable for our guild! I can give you whatever you want! Please!"

Ritsume was intrigued by the offer and with a smirk said "if you let me sit on that nice lady's lap, I will tell you everything! This bed is uncomfortable for me so I want to sit somewhere comfortable!"

Sakura laughed at his request and said "yes, you can! You seem like a nice boy and I have always wanted a son so I don't have any problem with it!'

But Toshi on the other hand did not like his request and angrily said to Sakura "How? That boy obviously looks like a pervert! How can you say yes? You've never let me do anything I ask for and we've been together for 18 years!"

Sakura did not respond to that and simply say on the bed with Ritsume on her lap.

And then Ritsume explained to them what all happened.

Toshi was very intrigued and kept asking questions which he answered without any complaint and then Sakura asked him

"So does anyone else know about it?"

He responded "Miku… and no one else, but she only knows up until what I have said so far! The rest is not known by anybody and… this part I will not be talking about as it is very controversial."

Toshi was happy by that and said "the information you have given is already extremely valuable! And I as the guild master thank you for it. But I do have one question that is unrelated to his… can I ask you about it?"

Ritsume happily agreed and Toshi asked "you said you wanted to sit in Sakura's lap but all this time when you were talking you never touched her anywhere other than laying down on her chest when you were tired… why? Aren't you supposed to be a pervert who just wanted to have her?"

This question enraged Sakura but before she could say anything, Ritsume said "can I give him the answer? Mrs Sakura?"

And she said yes but what is your answer?

And Ritsume answered Toshi saying "it's as I requested. The bed was too uncomfortable and I felt uneasy speaking so I asked to be able to sit on her lap. And I did not lay on her chest because I wanted to do anything but just that I was tired and she gave me permission to so I did. I don't have never been a pervert and there is already a girl i like and I don't have time to do such non sense while having and important conversation."

Sakura was happy with his response and after that, she placed him back on the bed and went to Toshi and looked at him angrily and in disgust at what he had thought about a child and Hit him with a fire magic attack that send him flying.

"That's what you deserve for being such an idiot!"
