Omega Summoner

A huge sphinx mummy is created using the skill Emperor’s Divide that the golden mummy cast. That is not the only surprise as the giant sphinx mummy is summoned just before the golden mummy returned to the death realm it was summoned from. Its vanishing figure is suddenly anchored back to the mortal realm.

[The Forgotten Golden Mummy has used its pinnacle skill that it used back when it was alive.]

[The Forgotten Golden Mummy will not disappear as long as the duration of the skill Emperor’s Divide is up.] ℴ

The golden mummy is now wreaking havoc to the golden army. The golden emperor could also feel it that him and the golden mummy is the same but in different timelines. The meeting of the past and present should not have been possible, but a relic made from the body of a dead god could make that possible.

If the place they are in is not a special place, then space and time continuum would have been destroyed. In Pandemonium, a demon must never meet with their past self because the universe would exert its power to delete one of them.

As Adrian is about to use the last skill of his axe primordial armament, time suddenly stopped. Adrian did not know that he is already been read like a book by the sphinx and the trial was just an excuse. Adrian’s soulbounds is not able to move but he was spared from the full effects of time stopping.

Adrian moved 50% slower than he could move. It made him amazed that a relic could almost invalidate his demonic characteristics. He is now absolutely sure that the Sands of Time could actually save Ascalor’s life.

The sphinx suddenly descended unto the ground. Upon its landing, all the golden army and even Adrian’s summon are sent back to where they came from. The golden army returned to the sands; the golden mummy returned to its death realm while Adrian’s soulbound is sent back to his Soul Chamber.

“You have done enough, little demon. I have already discerned your reason on wanting to use the relic that I am guarding. I thought that you would use it for your own selfish gain like an asmodian that used it back then.” The sphinx stated but its last sentence caught Adrian’s attention.

“Why did you change our mind after reading my memories?” Adrian asked as he is told that guardians are always strict when it comes to their trials.

“I am to give you a deal. In exchange for me giving you usage of the Sands of Time, you must complete a request from me.” The sphinx stated.

“A deal. I really want to accept but I know that it would be a pain in the ass. Deals with godlike being never really pays off well for me but I need to save Ascalor immediately.” Adrian thought as he deliberated on whether to accept the deal.

“I already answered your riddle and even passed your second test. Can you just give me the relic, please? Is it not unfair that I have to make a deal that the others before me had only needed to answer a riddle while I have to do double the effort?” Adrian grumbled.

“It is only fair because if you use the relic that I guard to revert the damage done by a god then I will lose power for a thousand years. If you want the other option, then get me a hundred thousand souls and then we will talk. Not just any souls! The souls must be of trained and powerful individuals.” The sphinx replied.

“Okay then. So, about this deal, what does it entail that I do?” Adrian suddenly asked as he is now in a deal making mood.

“I just need you to retrieve something from the dark god that destroyed the previous Curator of Time’s body. I believe that you have met before. His name should now be Cristobal.” The sphinx stated which shocked Adrian.

“Cristobal? But he is a warlock is he not? He should not be a dark god.” Adrian replied as he knew that Cristobal is just a Mad Warlock not a reincarnation of a dark god.

“Have you not been in his lair? That lair is made of the dead body of a dark god. My eyes do not deceive me as that fellow consumed the dying heart of the dark god Gi-Hoveg. That dark god took the other half of the god Aion.” The sphinx stated.

“Aion? Who is that? I was told the gods of time are just gods who operate like a machine. They also exist in a dimension that cannot be accessed by even the greater gods.” Adrian stated as he anted to know more of the god Aion.

“Aion is called the Curator of Time but he is also a god that controlled time. When the dak gods attacked, the first gods they struck down was non-other than the gods of time and space.

Due to this, the remaining gods decided that the gods of time and space be sealed in a separate dimension that constantly shifts in time and space for their protection. The gods of time and space wanted to object but if they perished then time and space would become erratic in every world.

Do you not wonder why the time in every world is different? That was also a counter measure so that the dark gods could not access them when the gods of time and space split up the main world.” The sphinx stated which greatly blew Adrian’s mind.

“Are you saying that the minor worlds were once part of the main world?” Adrian asked just to be sure if what he heard is correct.

“You are correct. It seems that the demons have yet to tell even the Champion of the Twin Gods on what the world used to be. Have your patron gods not told you that before?” The sphinx asked.

“I am probably too weak learn about that because when someone usually brings up stuff like that then a grand world changing quest would ensue. Anyways, I will kill Cristobal and retrieve the item that you want.” Adrian replied.

“You would need that item if you were to use the Sands of Time to cure your demon mentor.” The sphinx suddenly replied.

“You said that in exchange for my cooperation then I could use the relic on Ascalor. Were you lying about the thousand-year weakening?” Adrian asked.

“At the relic’s current power, you can only try and slow down the ailment of this Ascalor you speak of. The Sands of Time is only half of the real relic. When the Curator of Time died, his body split into two creating two relics. The Sands of Time and the Sun Dias.

The Sun Dias would be able to boost the power of the Sands of Time so that your beloved Ascalor would be able to be restored. I was forcefully awakened after all. The monsters and people that I used to power up the relic are only caught for about a month after all.

Even the relic needs to be powered up. Thanks to you, I can no longer do that so our only option would be the Sun Dias. Do not worry as you could still use the relic to slow down the corrosion of that old demon’s body.” The sphinx stated which made Adrian sigh with relief.

“Can you locate the Sun Dias though?” Adrian asked as the other relic could be in another location and not inside Cristobal’s lair.

“Do not worry.” The sphinx stated as it suddenly made itself smaller. The sphinx now looked like a small cat with tiny wings with a regal looking headdress.

“In this form, I could accompany you and find my sibling.” The sphinx stated in a cute tone as its voice changed with it becoming smaller.

“You are saying that the other guardian is another sphinx like you. Great! You are like the riddle brothers or sisters. Do you even have a gender?” Adrian stated sarcastically.

“My sibling should have failed to awaken as it was devoured by the dark god. You can only hope that the Sun Dias is not corrupted by the dark god.

That Cristobal fellow could know its location as I felt him use it when he confronted you. His sudden appearance in his lair is not due to teleportation or transportation skills but due to the Sun Dias.” The sphinx

“In other words, I have to fight Cristobal in order to obtain that Sun Dias. Well, that is reassuring.” Adrian replied as the Sphinx tapped its cute paw on the sand and sent them out of the dungeon.

Adrian suddenly saw himself on top of the floating pyramid with the small sphinx beside him. They were standing on air and the guards all saw them. The alarms sounded but the guards could not even fly towards the top of the floating pyramid.

“First stop would be the Paradox Planes. I need you to slow Ascalor’s time so that we will have enough time to stop the erosion.” Adrian stated as he used Dimensional Teleportation to return to the Paradox Planes.
