"My mom has very high expectations for me.

"But at that time I was ready to be a candidate for 'Tovatus'...... Actually, there are many.

"I was the number one one. Because I was already at that time, I showed the quality of 'discord'.

"I can easily stiffen my relationship with others and provoke them to anger.

"For ordinary people, this is a very troublesome character. But that's why I have the possibility of inheriting the name of Tovatus. ”

Tovatus said slowly, "But one day...... I was killed. ”

He did not shy away from Morgan, the "dead man".

Or rather, he was telling Morgan something about the secrets that would be able to gain the trust of "him for the next week."

This is probably because Tovatus didn't believe in his heart that the Godfather and Morgan could put an end to it all in this week.

And as long as he enters the next week, the leakage of these secrets has nothing to do with him.

…… The biggest difference from the other elves is that Tovatus doesn't think he needs to keep secrets for the other elves.

The prohibitions and rules he followed on the surface were just to maintain the existence of this generation of "Tovatus".

In order to cause trouble for other members of his kind, he is very proactive in leaking information.

In retrospect, Tovatus spoke in front of everyone about the secret of the church and angels...... That should be the information he deliberately revealed to the godfather, the "elven rebel".

As far as the eye can see, among the leaders of the entire Downtown, among the newborn mages, the only one who rebels against the "Elves" from the heart - not "Company" and "Uptown" - is only himself, a spy from Uptown.

Just thinking about it makes the barber feel ridiculous.

"Maybe you can't see it, but I'm actually the younger-looking type."

Tovatus replied slowly: "I am over a hundred years old this year, not sixty or seventy years old, as most people think.

"The gap between 60 and 100 is very different...... I think the godfather should know the difference. ”

"Because of the Shari'a War, right?"

The barber whispered one of the histories that had been sealed by the elves.

- Anyway, the positioning of the role of "The Godfather" is the rebel of the elves. A little more transparency on your own should be fine.

The black-haired and red-eyed boy smiled with relief: "Ahh......h

"Yes. I was born from the times of war...... As a member of the mage family.

"At that time, angels had not yet been born. The tide of battle is tilted in our favor.

"But one day, I was killed...... The killer was my uncle. ”

Morgan's eyes widened slightly.

She didn't understand what had happened before...... But combined with Tovatus' words and her own experience, she has a keen grasp of the truth of the matter.

"Yes, without any motive. He and I even had a good relationship, arguing with each other and playing together.

"It's like you're under a spell, and it's like you're verifying something. After I habitually taunted him, he killed me without warning......"

“…… Because he's stuck in the cycle of time and space, right? ”

The Godfather said in a deep voice.

Speaking of which, he has realized ...... What happened to Tovatus.

"yes......"

Tovatus sighed: "Again and again, and the shorter and shorter retention period, his morality is on the verge of collapse. He was no longer bound by some rules and began to act unscrupulously, which was also a precursor to madness.

The mother found out about all this and calmly followed the traces.

Before her uncle could attack Kamalse again, she knocked him out and knocked him unconscious. At that time, Kamalse was not yet a director, but the Count of Kamalse.

Kamalser reacted immediately.

"The Count said to his mother, 'You have done something wrong.'"

His gaze turned cold: "But he said, 'You can make up for it.'" ”

The day that kept repeating itself collapsed because of it.

Only this time, Tovatus' uncle attacked him. Because everything is about to reset, and when the world resets, Tovatus will still be bouncing there.

But unfortunately, Tovatus' mother is not far away, and she witnessed it all with her own eyes.

She didn't break down...... Instead, he calmly pursued him, and knocked down his uncle, who was about to assassinate him, in front of Count Kamalse.

However, this made Count Kamalser realize that the man had already been struck by a spell. He doesn't need to reset him again...... When the twenty-four hours have passed, the sand will drain and the world line will be anchored.

This is exactly the consequence of the chain reaction of his uncle's death of Tovatus.

This also means that Tovatus' death is an irreversible "fact".

Unless......

Someone went back again.

As a voluntary "experiment".

Tovatus' mother agreed.

"Kamalse's more than fifty 'hourglasses', but that doesn't mean he only killed more than fifty."

Tovatus replied slowly, "To be precise, he has always kept the hourglass around this number.

"The maximum number of hourglasses that can be stored in the 'Hourglass Dwelling' area is sixty. Through his spells, he was able to make them disappear without any contact...... This is the essence of an urban legend called 'Kamikushi'.

"As long as the opponent attacks him repeatedly, then his spells will turn back the world's time...... Only when the other party gives up on this matter, time will flow normally, and this means that the other party disappears.

Because of this, not to mention that the dragon could not sanction him, and even the other elves did not know about it.

And because of this...... He didn't really know his own spells. Because Kamalse didn't tell the other elves about the spells he held. At most, they knew how long he could stop for a minute, or rewind the flow of other objects. ”

He needed an "assistant" who could explain to him from another perspective what was going on on the recipient's side.

That's Tovatus' mother.

He was a mother when he was a human.

"His hourglass wasn't made after using a spell on a person. If he uses this spell again on this person or another person during this time, the previous hourglass will be destroyed...... In other words, that person no longer has the ability to repeat the cycle, nor does he continue to get memories from the cycle.

"In any case, there will only be one hourglass at the same time. The old hourglass must be harvested only if it is at the time where the spell was first used, i.e. after going back in time and not making any new hourglasses within 24 hours...... It was then that Kamalse realized that he had used a spell at this moment in another timeline.

"My mother opened a different timeline, where she knocked down my uncle who 'thought she was the only one in infinite reincarnation'...... He doesn't have the memory of his mother knocking him down, and he still wants to attack me.

"But this time, my mother saved me. History was changed a day ago.

"Mother took me in her arms and told Count Kamalse what she had seen and heard.

After that, Kamalse ordered her to continue into the cycle of reincarnation and go to a new test.

"She didn't just cycle once...... Because every time she would save me first, hiding her memories and a part of her personality in my mind. After thirty-seven cycles, Count Kamalser finally freed her.

Or rather, another eternal torment.

“…… While holding me, she disappeared into the world without a trace. Shortly after that, my uncle, who had passed out on the ground, disappeared into thin air.

"According to Kamalse's account, although two people died as a result of his spells, he was given only one hourglass—my mother's."

"And I know that she is still going through this day in the past.

"One for one...... Fair enough. This is the price paid for the miracle of the resurrection. ”

At this moment, Tovatus did not look like a young elf.

And it was as if he had returned to the human period, and strong feelings appeared on his face.

It was a very complicated expression...... Although the smile on his face never faded, he felt like a clown who was crying silently with oil paint painted on his smile.

Rescue across the timeline.

“…… I thought you were going to be killed. ”

"No, it won't."

Tovatus sneered: "The new elves originally needed to take away the quarantine education and prevent being 'deceived' by the short-borns. By the time he graduates, he will be a qualified elf who will be able to separate himself from the mortal stand...... At that time, they were completely reborn and became elves from mind to body.

"Not to mention, I am the 'successor' who inherited the fate of those eighty-four. The moment I became 'Tovatus', my human feelings were diluted by long memories to the point of invisibility.

That's why Kamal thinks it's a good thing—it gives him a trusted elven ally.

"From his worldview, the person who attacked me was my uncle...... Since my mother only came to me on that occasion, it means that he did not do such crazy things in the previous samsara, and that the gradually shortening time crushed him, and it was because of the tragedy caused by his fragility as a human being; And it was Kamalse who gave my 'Mother of the Human Age' a chance to save the 'Successor of Tovatus' from the dead timeline. This is the miracle of bringing the dead back to life.

"Not only does he feel no guilt, but he also considers himself my savior."

The curvature of the corner of the young man's mouth rose slightly: "But what he didn't expect was ...... He is the one who made me who I am.

"The spell that my mother had hidden in my mind gradually dissolved over time...... In my dreams, the phantom she left behind taught me spells, taught me how to be a man, told me what had happened in the past, and told me about her love for me......

"My father died in the war a long time ago. If she and my uncle die again, I'll be alone. I started out being good at making people angry just to get more attention. When I was lonely, I read through these memories many times, and in my dreams I saw many things that she had experienced. This makes my mental age much larger than the real age of 'eight years old'.

"It is precisely because of the memories that I have that do not belong to me that I can finally anchor my own personality under the washing of the memories of 'Tovatus'. In the end, I, a 'human', became the subject of Tovatus' personality. ”

“…… That's why you say, 'You're unique among the elves.'" ”

"Yes...... My godfather. ”

Tovatus rested his right hand on his chest.

On his immature countenance, there was an undisguised and malicious smile: "I am unique because of my 'love' and 'hate'.

"I've been dormant long enough, Godfather. It's been so long that he's already suspicious of me......

"But in the end, I was given the opportunity to wait.

"I want to join you...... Invest in intelligence. ”

The elven proclaimed, "Until you kill Kamalse, I will be your most loyal ally." ”
