Sacrifice: Time of Mine

Chapter 154: Tower Collapsing

Avion felt pain in his head. However, he has already learned and knows that he have to avoid unnecessarily offending her.

"I apologize, Princess Alisera, but I am a simple man. I cannot touch the princess." he courteously declined her.

However, the princess flat-out said, "Don't worry, don't worry, I am ordering you and you can princess carry me. I don't want to feel tired." she smiled as if she said something that was natural.

"RELLE! WHERE ARE YOU!?"

Kalin's fading shout in the background was heard. When Avion was about to speak, Alisera frowned, "Hmph! Who is more important, your friend or your princess!?"

Avion inwardly sighed but thinking about just carrying her to the top, he didn't fight back any longer. He didn't think about anything serious.

"Then if you insist, princess." Avion nodded and Alisera smiled as if she won. Her body turned around vertically as she dropped onto his arms.

"Oh..." Alisera blushed, thinking that it was quite embarrassing now.

"What are you doing to the princess!?" Edora's panicked shout caught everyone's attention.

"Run!" Alisera laughed as she pointed.

Avion sighed before he ran upwards, escaping Edora.

Hearing Alisera's shout made everyone relieved. It seemed like it was one of the princess's selfish demands instead of a daylight kidnapping.

"Who's this? She's so cute..." Darea muttered as she giggled while looking at Alisera. Despite having a youthful appearance, she is an old monster. For her, Alisera is just a child. Maybe even everyone else there.

But Avion didn't reply. Even though he was insanely training for the past month, he was still a mortal. Even his muscles would feel fatigued as he carries Alisera while climbing up the stairs.

That's why he had to revert his body's time after feeling tired.

Prince Harold spat out his drink, 'Why is it not me who got to carry her!?'

But he was not alone.

Mettany also looked with furious and envious gaze, 'Why is it not me who ordered him to carry me!?'

Of course, Prince Julio looked at this scene with a furious and envious gaze, 'Why is it not me who got to touch her!?'

Meanwhile, the King and Queen of Karan stared at these, frozen. It was the calm before the storm as the other nobles gasped a cold chill.

That is why Edora panicked. Even if it was just Princess Alisera's selfish demands, the possessive King and Queen were here!

"Isero!" the queen shouted in panic.

"YOU!" King Isero fumed before he jumped from his spot.

"Wait!" Guild Master who was just chilling on one side, trying to flirt with a pretty middle-aged lady saw this and panicked, "That tower wouldn't be able to handle that impact"

Hearing this, many felt their hearts thumped.

There was a boom as the tower shook when the King of Karan climbed up like a spider on the pillars instead of the stairs.

"Iek!" Avion shrieked when he unknowingly attracted trouble the first time he moved., 'This is because of this selfish princess!' he wanted to cry.

Edora was chasing him up while King Isero was on the pillars like an abnormal spider rising up.

"Wait! I won't do anything bad to your daughter!" Avion shouted, "She's the one who ordered me!"

"Release her and I will kill you!" King Isero shouted.

"Isn't that saying you don't want me to release her!?" Avion retorted. 

The tower continually shook as Princess Alisera laughed, not caring about the situation, "Can't you go any faster!?"

"This is all your fault, you know!?"

"Ah... the King Isero is going berserk again due to his daughter..." King Gregor mysteriously sighed but the King of Hansheles only nervously laughed at this.

'King Isero is scary when it concerns his daughter...' it was fun teasing this possessive king but seeing how he truly react gave the King of Hansheles chills.

Before Avion could even notice it, the situation had gone uncontrollable!

"Hahaha! This princess may be the most important person in the world right now. She is the key to the future. If a stranger suddenly snatched you, I may even act like him." Darea found the situation hilarious as she followed Avion's back.

'Yeah, but I didn't snatch her!' Avion inwardly exclaimed. As he thought this, Edora was catching up, and faster than she was King Isero!

Without any choice, Avion had to speed up...

Footless Travel and Overclock!

Avion has the ability to speed up an object twice, including himself and he calls it Overclock- Fast!

Even the King of Karan was stunned at this, "Stop right there!"

"Only if you calm down!" Avion had his voice thin but he was aware of it and intentionally slowed down his shout.

Princess Alisera on his arms vibrated due to Avion's speed, "D-d-d-d-d-d-d...." she clutched her arms around Avion's neck.

'He's fast!' even Edora, known for her bursting speed was unable to keep up with Avion.

Not long after, Avion reached the top and saw Kalin hugging a pillar. The tower was still trembling.

"It isn't meant to be used as a climbing arena!" Guild Master Gon shouted before warning, "That tower might collapse, get away from it!"

His shout created panic. But they were nobles with average Rank Cee abilities. In almost an instant, they were able to get away.

Just as the Guild Master warned, they heard a crack and smoke of dust came out of one of the tower pillars.

King Isero grabbing onto one of the pillars: "....."

Edora who was in the middle of the stairs: "....."

The princess who was laughing earlier: "...."

Kalin: "Huh? No..."

"Young Master Kalin, let's get down from here!" Avion was the only one who spoke as he placed Alisera down. After the crack that they heard, the tower incessantly trembled.

"Wh-what's happening!?" Princess Alisera held onto Aivon's arm with fright. Her chest pushing against him.

"What a lucky man!"  Prince Julio bit his nails in stress.

"How?!"

"Protect Alisera!" the queen became nervous while Prince Harold stood up from his seat.

"Alisera!" King Isero's worry multiplied as he climbed faster.

When the tower was about to give in, Kalin's arm and Alisera's waist were pulled.

"Let's jump!" Avion shouted and without hesitation, he jumped.

"AHHH!!" Edora's scream toppled the shouts of the two who were carried by Avion alone. She was still midway through the stairs so the moment she heard a crack, she immediately went down.

Meanwhile, King Isero just reached the top when he saw that Avion was already sliding down together with Princess Alisera on his side and what follows them was Kalin.

Before he was about to jump, the tower began to collapse!

"This is still a pool party, right!?" Guild Master Gon shouted.

Prince Julio: "Lucky guy!"

"Tell us, how?!"

The tower collapsed when Edora just escaped to a safer spot. She looked up in worry as she saw that the tower was, unfortunately, heading down towards the slide, destroying them!

Avion looked up and saw the roof of the tower chasing them.

"Wahh!!" he shouted in fright before Overclocking his body, abruptly pulling Kalin while surprising Alisera.

"KYAHHH~~~!" Alisera shriek followed.

However, the roof of the tower was still faster, Avion gritted his teeth. The slide was long. After the ups and downs of the slide, there is a spiral in which it will turn around to meet the destruction. Avion can't let them stay there!

So he raised one of his feet and slammed it down the slide.
