"For someone who wields the power of time... I can't help but be disappointed," Chronos said with a slight frown. "Your performance against Vatyra was noteworthy. I'd show that to any of my future or past disciples."
"But this..." Chronos scratched his cheek. "Were you even trying?"
[Damn,] Burger mumbled. [You sure as shit won't be living this one down, will you?]
Probably not. Rael shook his head inwardly. But really... I thought this guy was the angelic warrior type, not a harsh mentor.
[Bit off more than you can chew?] Burger chuckled. [Just get it over with. I'll come back in a million years. Maybe by then you'll be unfrozen. If not, then... I'll make sure to spend your money wisely.]
Despite Burger being a bastard, Rael had no choice but to ignore him and focus on Chronos instead.
"I was trying," Rael said, slightly embarrassed. "I've never used a time skill before, so I don't really know how to control it."
