Even though Gabriel asked Cylix and Novius about the Orb of Time, even he hadn't expected such an extreme reaction from them. It was as if he had asked them about some great devil or something.
It wasn't just the shock that he could see on his face which surprised him. He was sure that they definitely knew something about it.
"I heard someone mention that name before." Gabriel didn't know why, but he decided against telling Cylix and Novius that he possessed one of the two Orbs of a Times. He felt uncomfortable telling them.
The Orbs were kept in the treasures of the Royal Academy of Elements, but from what he was told, the wooden box was received by the Academy not too long ago. It definitely was much after the time that last person managed to reach the ninety-ninth floor.
And even if they could, they wouldn't have known that the Academy had Orbs of Time. Even the Academy couldn't open the box to see what was inside.
