Chapitre 1509: The Mysterious Old Man

"Doesn't another one appear in your race later on? One like him?" I felt much doubt about this, and he simply bitterly smiled back.

"It's not that simple," he sighed, a sigh that told me how much pressure and loss this dude and his race felt by the absence of the holder of such power. "That dude had to die first, then a thousand years will pass, before a new one will appear. As you can see… We got trapped here for endless years by your words, and yet only a few months passed on us each time without feeling anything at all!"

"..."

I got the scary part of this time loop thing. Time was passing, but it wasn't actually passing for them. They got trapped here, imprisoned in this place, without any feeling of time passing, without any relation to anything outside.

"Does that mean… That old man who gave me such power… He was the same one who vanished from your time?" I asked in doubt, not even believing the words that came out from my mouth.
