The shadow on the Sacred Time River began as a small spot, but as soon as Daniel's gaze fell upon it, he noticed that it was expanding at an astonishing speed.
"Wait, this is…"
Before Daniel could react—crack! It was as if something had shattered. No… Daniel wanted to intervene and stop it, but it was already too late.
The shadow had spread over a large area of the Sacred Time River, and then… it broke into fragments, scattering everywhere.
Daniel tried to salvage the Sacred Time River, but all he managed to recover was a single fragment.
"Well, I tried my best. If it can't be saved, there's nothing I can do," he muttered to the fragment in his hand, seemingly forgetting that he himself had caused this state of the Sacred Time River.
Daniel now felt almost certain that whoever erased everything was likely not after his predecessor's father.
