Whew. I’m glad that worked.

After I ended up in the other plane, I honestly wasn’t sure how things would turn out. What with me never actually being exposed to so much anti-magic mana before.

For all I knew, it could actually kill me.

But nope. I guess not.

Natural mana from a reality warp really is powerful. It just refuses to budge to anything. At all.

My next worry was about getting stuck in said plane forever. Because the Chairman could easily manage that.

Fortunately for me, I thought of a rather unusual plan to get out. And it actually worked.

At the very least, I knew my body would grow back if it were to be completely destroyed. But I didn’t think my body would just break its way out of the anti-magic mana plane to return to my head.

That’s certainly… something.

It was probably a rather odd sight to behold for everyone here.

There’s a more pressing matter at hand right now though than that. What with the anti-magic mana plane still being wide open with a large, broken rift in front of us.

Except This one is different from the rift the Chairman tried opening up before. Specifically in that this rift is expelling anti-magic mana out into the natural plane rather than drawing things into it.

Well, shit. I have no idea what to do right now.

Has a mana plane ever actually had its walls completely broken before? And is it even possible to fix it?

“Don’t worry, the problem will be dealt with in a moment,” Incendia states while flying down and landing on my shoulder, having been knocked out of the way by an angry Chairman before the Chairman and I ended up in the mana plane.

Really? How?

“Just watch,” she says while looking up at the sky.

So I look where she’s currently looking, only to surprisingly find a man wearing purple robes appearing in the sky. One with glowing bluish orange eyes. Eyes that look similar to the time mana in my body but different. With shades of orange mixed into the blue and purple.

As for the mana itself that he’s letting off? It gives off the same feeling as the time mana in my body. Just stronger and somehow different.

But that can’t be possible. Not unless…

My eyes widen as the realization comes to me.

The realization that this man in front of me – one who looks no older than me despite his incredible well of mana that I can sense flooding out of him – must be a time affinity magician. Which shouldn’t even be possible.

Unless he’s from another continent?

The man looks around at the other magicians here before disregarding them entirely and looking at me. At which point he surprisingly nods his head with a faint smile on his face. Then he turns to focus on the rift as he raises one hand towards it.

Without even the slightest hint of a spell circle, confirming along with his well of mana that he is indeed a Class S magician, time mana begins to spew out of his hand in the form of a spell. One that somehow begins to freeze time itself around the rift.

Absolutely everything in it just freezes. The wind around the rift, the anti-magic mana leaving it, and even the rift itself.

Nothing is spared.

As for the man himself? He just looks at me one more time before nodding and vanishing from sight without a word.

The… fuck?

Goosebumps suddenly run down my back, making me jump up high into the air above the base before I look around for the source of the terrifying gaze I sensed on me for a brief second. Only to not find a single thing.

“Do not worry for that is the Guardian,” Incendia states while yawning and closing her eyes despite still being on my shoulder. “He protects this world and would never harm you.”

Do you mean the one who just left or the gaze I just felt? Or are they both from the same person?

“The one who just left was the current Chrono, while the gaze was from the Guardian,” Incendia answers. “All I will say for now is that they protect the world from damage like what your escape from the anti-magic mana plane caused. To learn more you must speak with them yourself.”

I stare at Incendia for several seconds before eventually turning to look at the rift again. Then I lower myself down to the ground. Just to find a bunch of magicians staring at me like I’m a ghost or something.

Did I do something wrong?

I watch them all for a moment, only to turn my attention towards the frozen rift. Along with the man still visible from here who looks dead inside of the rift.

The Chairman.

Good to see that he actually died. That means the Republic is now out of the war as well.

Which just leaves the Collective Kingdoms and the doctor still remaining.

Then this war will be over for good, and the Kingdom of the Fallen will be the new rulers of the abandoned continents.

My thoughts halt when I see Archibald approaching me out of the corner of my eye. So I turn to him just as he says, “Congratulations, Nathan Fox, for slaying a Class S magician.”

And immediately after his words, the other magicians all begin to repeat his words in various ways.

Or at least, the ones who are still conscious. Seeing as quite a few of the magicians who were helping with this battle fell unconscious. Whether due to mana deficiency or just being knocked out.

What shocks me even more is that some of the magicians begin to kneel down to me and refer to me as ‘Your Highness’.

I look over them all before feeling the corner of my lips twitching upwards.

Interesting.
