Chapter 593: New Consciousness
Auditorium Entrance.
As Anangu descended from the sky in her owl form, she quickly circled over Charles\'s head and started to sing in a sorrowful voice.
At the same time, the dark clouds encircled the sky started to let out a flash of lightning and started to rain.
"Oh! My friend, my blood companion,
You have departed from this world.
The bond we shared, now broken,
Leaving my heart shattered and unfurled.
We laughed together; we wept as one,
Through joy and sorrow, hand in hand.
But now, in your absence, I\'m left alone,
Grieving for the loss, unable to withstand it.
Oh, how we traversed life\'s path,
With dreams and hopes intertwined.
But fate\'s cruel hand has snatched you away,
Leaving me with memories forever enshrined.
Your absence echoes through the days,
A void that cannot be filled.
I yearn for your presence, my dear friend,
Longing for the warmth you instilled.
The world seems bleak and colorless,
Since you departed from my sight.
Your laughter, your voice, forever lost,
Leaving me enveloped in eternal night.
Oh, my friend, my beloved soul,
Rest in peace in the realms above.
Though we are now worlds apart,
Your memory shall forever be my love."
Although this song she sang was only dedicated to Asher, everyone who survived the previous disaster listened felt torn up. Some cried loudly, while others hugged their friends\' or family members\' corpses and wept.
At that moment, the blood moons also started to turn dim and soon vanished from the sky, leaving a dark cloudy sky.
Meanwhile, Anangu slowly landed on Charles\'s shoulder and let out a grieving mumble.
"Who killed Asher? Rafael or Miguel?" She asked while sharpening her owlish gaze towards Jessie.
"I-I don\'t know. But I saw her blood on Miguel\'s dress." Jessie said stiffly and went silent.
"She was foolish and naive. With the power I lent her earlier, she could have killed Rafael in less than five minutes." Anangu let out a deep sigh and shook her head.
Meanwhile, Charles quietly observed the whole city using his wisdom power and felt sickening.
\'I shouldn\'t have activated the dice.\' He couldn\'t help but feel guilty.
A strange silence appeared at the auditorium entrance.
After a few seconds, Charles looked at the black owl and spoke causally.
"I didn\'t expect your small trick could scare the Time God to run like a mouse."
Although he was calm on the outside, his heart started to race at an incredible speed.
\'If I\'m not wrong, the next disaster would be multiple times stronger than this one. And I don\'t even know when it will start.\' But what caused him to feel anxious was that even he didn\'t expect that the first disaster would annihilate one-third of the city\'s population.
At that moment, Anangu tilted her head and spoke.
"The reason he left this city in a hurry was mainly because he knew a little bit of my past. Although I don\'t have any power left in this body, I have already taken control over this Miracle City and can even regain my lifespan a little. As long as I\'m staying here, not even a Low God could force his way in." A trace of confidence appeared in Anangu\'s voice.
Meanwhile, Jessie tried her best to calm down her trembling legs and hands and asked.
"But who is he? I thought I was dead when he attacked me." She still recalled the moment when her whole body exploded, went into smithereens, and felt an unknown fear.
On the other hand, Charles took a deep breath and answered.
"That guy\'s name is Udnir, the God of Time. Even I don\'t know much about him. But one thing I\'m sure of is his main goal is not me but Sun God. As long as we keep low profile for the next two years, we don\'t have to fear him."
"Oh? Does that mean we are staying in this city for the next two years?"
"You can stay but Charles can\'t stay here for more than 20 hours." Anangu interjected while looking up at the cleared sky and spoke.
\'Twenty hours? Wait.\'
Charles raised his eyebrows and asked suspiciously.
"You knew about the upcoming disasters, don\'t you? I\'m getting more interested your past." He quickly shook his head and decided to leave this place first.
"Can you send me far away from the Miracle city?" He asked.
"I can but it\'s not safer. Once your leave this city, Udnir will definitely come for you. Even if I use City Core\'s portal ability to send you far away, he can easily track you down and capture you. After all, he is not only well versed in Time Law but also Space Law." Anangu deliberated for a moment and then added.
"It would be better if you leave the city without even knowing you. To be precise, you must become someone else." Although her words appeared strange and puzzling, Charles instantly guessed what she was implying and nodded.
Then, Anangu turned her attention toward Jessie and blinked before asking.
"You got Asher\'s inheritance, right? What did she tell before dying?"
Upon hearing those words, Jessie turned grim and spoke solemnly.
"She asked me to live happily and never trust anyone."
Even though she never met that lady before, Jessie felt a trace of loneliness and helplessness in Asher\'s voice.
"That silly girl really was foolish and naive till the very end. Well, that\'s why I liked her most. I hope she get a good life after reincarnation." She made a hooting sound to show her grievance and added.
"Child, take a good care of her last gift. If you want to know more about her, go to the Tower of Mirror\'s 52\'st layer."
Saying so, she flapped her wings and quietly flew away from them.
In the meantime, Charles looked at Jessie and spoke.
"Jessie, I want you to relay what had happened here to Runeth and tell him to strength the security. After leaving the Miracle City, Time God will definitely keep his eye on our Rebirth Tower." He paused for a moment and added.
"But you should stay here and try to increase your strength. Although this black owl\'s identity is mysterious and suspicious, she doesn\'t seem to have ill intention against us. Moreover, you might get some unexpected benefits here."
Jessie pondered for a moment and agreed.
She suddenly thought of something and spoke hurriedly.
"Ah, I already told my friend to take control of an airship in case if we plan on leaving this city. You might use it to escape from here."
"Really?" Charles was delighted by her arrangement and nodded.
"Then, I\'ll be on my own." Saying so, he turned around and walked into the auditorium.
On the other hand, Jessie stood there for a few more seconds and decided to return to her mansion house. Although she randomly gained a divine treasure, she knew how dangerous it was and felt restless.
\'First, I will study the mysterious blood throne hiding in my Inner World and then search why Asher chose me as her successor.\' She muttered inwardly and started walking towards the Magus Center.
...
In the meantime, Charles returned to the auditorium stage and noticed that the City Core had long disappeared. Not only that, but even Marvin seemed to have vanished out of thin air.
Only Professor\'s dead body lay in the middle of the stage and painted the white floor in blood.
"It\'s time for a new identity." As he spoke, he quietly took a drop of Professor\'s blood and created a new Identity imprint in his mind.
He invoked the imprint in the blink of an eye, unleashing its shapeshifting power and undergoing a remarkable metamorphosis into a youthful figure of merely two decades. Standing approximately 180 centimeters tall, he possessed a slender face with a distinctive elongated shape, accentuated by a pair of captivating emerald eyes set wide apart. Cascading down his back, his lustrous locks extended below his neckline, contributing to his enigmatic allure. Slowly, the mustache grew under his will and appeared in hook form.
After the transformation, Charles quietly removed the pince-nez glasses, spatial ring, silver bracelet, and bowler hat from the dead body and wore them. After that, he conjured a flame and tossed it on the dead body.
As Professor\'s body started burning fiercely, he quietly sat a few meters away from the pool of blood in the lotus position and closed his eyes before entering his Inner World.
A moment later, he appeared in the sky and saw seven different firelands connected by a single magma palace in the middle.
He quietly descended from the sky and soon arrived in front of the palace entrance. Unlike before, he even saw many ornamental plants planted all over the area that looked more like the real world.
Shaking his head, he quietly spread his wisdom power all over his Inner World and started gathering all the information he obtained from Professor\'s consciousness.
After a few minutes, he gathered all information first and forged them into a new consciousness. Then, he made a few adjustments in his memories and sent the newly formed consciousness out of his Inner World.
A moment later, Charles opened his eyes in the auditorium stadium and frowned as he looked at the burned corpse.
"What am I doing here? Who am I? Whose corpse is it? Wait... I\'m Fate Professor... No, why can\'t I remember my true name?" As he asked, many memories appeared in his mind, causing a sharp headache.
\'Now I remember! This body\'s original soul name is Max Fireborn; born in Riverdale City and became an explorer under my guidance. After some time, I took over this body and replaced his consciousness.\' At that moment, he also started to recall about Edhen Children organization and his main goal to come to Miracle City.
