Chapter 193 Trying to Create a New Power
"If that was indeed possible, I would have done it from the start. Why would I want to keep my beloved granddaughter in slumber if her lover has come to visit her?"
"Not, visit. I am here to take her back with me." Rudy glared at Virgil from the corner of his eyes and said, "And you are the one who put her in the slumber."
"That was a punishment, as I said."
"Yeah, yeah. Your stupid rules and stupid punishments."
"It wasn\'t the punishment. It was to send a message," Virgil uttered in a low voice. "Had I forgiven Rias for loving a human, my citizens would have thought I did that because she is a royal and my grandchild. Then, others would try it too, and I couldn\'t \'t possibly punish them then."
"..."
"You won\'t believe me, but deep down, I was expecting someone like you to show up to save Rias. But I was told that you were a mere human. Had I known you had mysterious powers, I would have never ordered anyone to bring Rias back. After all, their safety matters the most."
"I can\'t understand, but I guess that\'s what it is to be a king…"
Rudy walked closer to the bed with Jane still in his arms. For some reason, Rias never tried to get off Rudy\'s arms even though she was aware of that, unlike Rudy, who was concerned about Rias.
Rudy finally noticed his hands were occupied with Jane, so he dropped Jane from his embrace.
"Wha—!" Jane thought she would collapse on the ground, but Rudy used his telekinesis and made her float in the air.
"..." Jane frowned her face and tried to kick Rudy for pulling such a prank on her, but of course, her body was being controlled by Rudy, so she couldn\'t do anything.
Rudy also wanted to tease Jane even more as he hadn\'t fully forgiven her for separating him from Rias, so he made her spin in the air and constantly threw her around without hurting her.
"Stop it!" she yelled after getting annoyed.
Rudy carefully placed her on the bed beside Rias and said, "Stay put now."
"..." Jane wanted to comment something, but she stayed quiet because she didn\'t want to get spun around the chamber again.
Rudy gently placed his hand on Rias\' chest and smiled at her.
\'What is my power? What can they do? What are their limits? And how do they work? How can my imagination turn into power? If I can do anything I want, then I should be able to do the impossible. But, my body has a limit, and so does my mental strength.\'
\'My restoration power. They restore any living or non-living thing as long as one minute has not passed. That\'s the limit of my restoration ability. But my restoration ability is basically turning back the time for the specific object. So if I can turn back time, I should be able to forward it as well. And that\'s what I am going to try on Rias.\'
According to Virgil, Rias was put on a six months slumber, and out of 6, only 3 months had passed. Rudy was planning to fast forward the time of the three months slumber.
\'To be honest, I am nervous as hell. I don\'t even know if it will work or not. Maybe I shouldn\'t try it? What if I mess up and end up hurting Rias again? But… I can\'t wait for three months.\'
Rudy raised his head and looked at Jane, only to find her staring at him with a resolute expression on her face.
\'I guess she is also waiting for me to wake Rias up.\'
Rudy had put himself on a pedestal that he couldn\'t get off now.
\'Here I go…\' Rudy took a deep breath and concentrated everything on fast-forwarding the time.
Rudy\'s palm glowed as his powers interacted with the spell that was cast on Rias.
\'Didn\'t Virgil say he removed all the spells?\' Rudy thought to himself.
"I know what you are thinking, and let me clear your suspicion before you ask me. The spell on Rias is the spell I cast to keep her in slumber. That\'s why, I gave the example of the bow and arrow."
After a brief pause, he added, "In other words, this spell is irreversible."
\'If my palm is glowing, I guess my power is working?\' Rudy wondered. \'But I can only restore or move back in time for one minute. I wonder how much time I can move forward.\'
"..." Virgil raised his brows and walked closer to the bed to see the progress. His eyes widened in surprise as he uttered, "It\'s working."
"Can you tell how much time has decreased?" Rudy asked.
"It\'s hard to tell, but I can say it\'s working! So keep doing whatever you are doing!"
Rudy kept using the power again and again, but he had started to feel mentally exhausted.
"Around a day has decreased!" Virgil exclaimed.
\'What?! Only a day?! I have been doing this for 5 minutes straight!\'
Rudy stopped using his powers and muttered, "This is more exhausting than I thought. But then again, I have never used this. Maybe my powers haven\'t gotten used to this ability?"
Rudy turned to Jane and asked, "How many minutes have passed since I entered the vampire world?"
"Around 30…?"
"And if I don\'t leave this world in another thirty minutes, I will be stuck here for the next 15 days, right?"
"Yes," Jane nodded in response.
"Could it be that 15 days here is one day in the outside world?"
"No. Why would you even think something like that?"
"Well…" Rudy shrugged his shoulders with an awkward smile on his face.
\'So even if I used my ability for the next 25 minutes, it would still only decrease five more days of her slumber?\'
Rudy shook his head and uttered, "I will try a faster way!"
