"We can travel back to the point when our predecessor used his ti rule mastery to turn the Lightning struck-stump into the Ti Vestige’s temporal anchor," Lucine answered, dodging the core of the boy’s question.
I rolled my eyes at Lucine, she couldn’t have been more obvious. You would think soone with her experience and age would know how to lie or just be straightforward. Say no if you don’t want to answer. Why bother with these tricks? Was it because she was overwheld by and was unable to say no to ?
"I know that. I asked you, how far back has Morningstar University traveled in ti?" I asserted, not leaving her a way out. Either she gave a firm ’no’ or the answers I sought.
"I can’t tell you that. It’s one of our core secrets. I’m willing to make an exception if you join us," Lucine proposed. She not only gave the boy firm no but also made it so he would stop bringing it up and pestering her.
"Was that hard?" I remarked, eyeing Lucine, who was still waiting for my response about enrolling at her university. Not bothering to answer her, I ask, "I still don’t get why you didn’t just use the ti vestige to co find in this past?"
"That’s because I wasn’t sure I would find you here. So, I needed to trace your path, which isn’t possible with the Ti Vestige. Sam thought that with your mastery of the Ti Rule, you couldn’t help but struggle against the spatial and temporal forces and, as a result, go off-trail into the vast Temporal River. But, not only did you not struggle and not go off-trail, you made it all the way here and stayed put. I was worried I would have to scour the Ti River for eternity in hopes of finding you," Lucine explained her difficulties and the risks she took on just to rescue the boy.
A part of her felt it was a miracle that she found him so easily. The only problem was he was showing no sign of returning with her, despite her persuading him and doing her best to satisfy his curiosity about her Labyrinth of Myriad Pasts. They had been here long enough, they needed to leave her quickly. Besides the tiline dentia, there was another threat in here.
"Oh, I see. Now, excuse . Since I am here, I might as well make the best of it to try and start my comprehension of ti rule," I inford Lucine honestly and let her be, having made myself comfortable on a flat boulder by the lightning struck stump to comnce my comprehension of ti rule. I didn’t dare to be seated on the lightning struck stump as there was a tiny tear in space and ti above it. It wasn’t as obvious as when the ti tunnel was summoned, but it was there. I didn’t want to repeat the mistake young Ahalya once did.
"Movent of truth," I muttered to myself, sitting on the boulder in lotus position, preparing to see if I could comprehend the ti rule, wondering if it would elude like the entire Myriad Realm’s ti rules avoided ?
Before I could close my eyes, Lucine interrupted , asking if I misspoke, "You an continue your comprehension of ti rule, right? Don’t you already have a certain mastery of ti rule? Also, are you surprisingly stupid enough to comprehend ti rule in a ti prison?"
"I never said that I had a certain mastery in ti rule," I was honest because Lucine would find out once I try to comprehend ti rule and also because I didn’t want to lie to soone who had risked her life to rescue mine. What’s the point of power if I can’t afford to be honest to people I care about?
Yes, I considered Lucine a friend now. This complicated my plans to use Morningstar University as a stepping stone to announce my plans to the five regions, but I had made changes to the plan when I learned that all top Universities had their own inheritance, each as useful as Morningstar University’s Labyrinth of Myriad Pasts. The top ten universities wanted my VR-universe, and I wanted their inheritance. I’m sure we could negotiate sothing.
Besides, in these tough tis when demons were about to invade our world for the second ti, we need to be united and not fight amongst ourselves. As the Southern Hope, I needed to take a lead and set an example to all. Let repeat myself: I am not doing this because I am greedy for the inheritance of the top ten universities.
"What? Then how did you survive the temporal and spatial forces and the temporal currents on your way here? How are you resisting the tiline dentia? I get it, you are kidding , right?" Lucine lost it and bombarded the boy with questions without giving him an opportunity to answer. "Funny, for a second you almost had there."
"Think what you want to think. I’m not kidding now, nor was I kidding when I said I can cure your ti rule dentia," I replied nonchalantly, shrugging my shoulders. "And why shouldn’t I comprehend ti rule in a ti prison?"
"You say you aren’t kidding, but you don’t know why you shouldn’t comprehend the Ti Rule in a ti prison?" Lucine remarked, wondering if anything this boy told her so far was true and not just so convenient lie he spun up on his feet. But seeing that he genuinely didn’t know why, she decided not to be petty and answered him, "That’s because the tiline in the ti prison is looped to trap the prisoner in here. If we comprehend the ti rule where the tiline is looped, we will be inflicted with ti rule dentia."
