Aion considered that possibility… for people who lived in the future, Aion was someone famous. Still, for someone who lived in the past, he was a threat that they had never heard of. So, it would make sense that one of them would try to check his strength and confirm that. Which was what probably happened.
Fighting one more enemy that could use time magic at the same time… what a headache. Aion wanted to believe that they were just thinking too much, but that would be naive on his part.
"Anyway, just continue with your own things, don't worry too much about it," Aion shrugged and then headed to the mansion. "No need to fret over small fries that can't do anything by themselves."
While Aion said that, his head was already planning his next move. First of all, he needed to upgrade all of the tier-one classes. That will give him a decent boost when using tier two and tier three classes of at least fifty percent in raw power, speed, and endurance if he plays his cards well.
"The best way to do that is by fighting powerful enemies… I don't need to worry about guarding mom as long as Fenhair is here, and I can use the death knights to level up while I sleep," Aion thought and then went to his library to look for the location of the best dungeons that he can use. "I guess labyrinths will be even better, but they will be very time-consuming."
It seemed that Aion would have to cut off his sleeping time to reach the next goal in the next few weeks. He couldn't afford to wait for Arc to convince more of the Millerians to help him… thanks to that, dark thoughts were starting to appear in his head, but he quickly got rid of them.
Aion could find the answers a lot sooner by talking with Seris and Arlana. Still, they were too close to his mother, so they would spill the beans, and eventually, Artemisia would get worried. That adding to the fact that she had grandchildren yet, will probably be too much in Aion's conscience.
"If the worst comes to the worst, I can always go to the last and train there by a few weeks to pull that off, even without killing monsters should be possible," Aion thought. "Still, I feel there is something that I have been missing… something that I forgot…"
Aion needed to clear his head to think about that feeling… so he decided to hit the sack. When he woke up, Aion recalled what it was that it was bothering him… he recalled two things. The first was the fact that instead of getting mana, souls were getting him experience… so there was a way to turn mana into experience. The second was that he could use Seris' power to train infinitely faster than before.
"When I try to process the mana orbs, I only get regular mana, or even by absorbing, the result is the same, I only get more mana" Aion rubbed his chin thoughtfully. "Still, since I can transfer experience between classes, there should be an away to do that, but for now, I should ask Seris for help."
Aion left his room and then went to have breakfast with the others. The training with Explosive Release wasn't showing any result, so he could only assume that he needed something that he only had in the future… a stronger body that he had absolute control over or fighting experience. He would only get them by training hard and surviving no matter what.
"I guess that is possible, but you should be aware of the consequences…" Seris hesitated once Aion told his plan.
"Yes, I will get old faster since my flow of time will accelerate. No problem, just do it," Aion said, and then he began to use Magic Recovery on Seris to make her get a lot of magic orbs.
Seris created a lot of those… enough to make her mana pool increase by ten, which means that once she uses her rune with her power on Aion with all her mana, time will bring to flow one hundred times faster for half an hour.
"This should be enough for a start," Aion said.
"For a start, you say…" Seris looked at Artemisia, but she just shrugged.
It was Aion's choice, after all… if he thought that was absolutely necessary, she wouldn't stop him. His survival was the top priority, after all.
Actually, Aion thought of creating a relic with Seris' blood, but that would require a lot, and he couldn't ask others to shed blood for him. In any case, when the time came, Seris created the rune and made Aion's body absorb it. At the same time, Aion felt his perception adjusting to that speed, but he somehow felt a bit weird. Everything around him was moving in extremely slow motion, and he felt that his body wasn't responding to the environment that fast.
In the end, he had to wait for a while for his body to get used to that speed, and then he moved to the corner of the garden and then began to swing his hammer. It was a very slow method to gain experience, but at that speed, it should be comparable to fighting monsters. Aion was basically going to experience two days in half an hour, after all.
Soon enough, Aion found a problem. Swinging the hammer for real was enough for him to create a blast of wind around him, and with that speed, the others basically would feel like a tornado was pushing them away while it was only half a meter away from them… the walls of the garden also began to crack.
After getting rid of the shockwaves, Aion decided to fly and train in the sky… he managed to do exactly what he wanted, and thanks to that, people saw clouds being pushed in the wrong direction for half an hour.
