Chapter 460  Chronicles of Frozen Time: A Reckless Journey to Save the Past

Year 18, Age of Mark;

Earth 43, Plane of Ice and Fire;

At the shores of a beautiful frozen lake in the wilderness, six teenagers were seen sitting together and having a chat or more like arguing with each other.

"No, it is too risky, Steve. You never operated it before," said a girl with pointy ears. She was frowning in displeasure.

"C'mon, it's not like we are some mortals that we needed to worry about such risks. We can even breathe in space," replied Steve. He added, "And it's not fair that only the eldest brother is allowed. We are not weaker than him in any way."

"Then, why don't you tell it to Dad and convince him?" The elven girl argued.

"If uncle knew about it, you will be grounded this time for sure and even your mom won't be able to save you," a male with pointy ears supported her. He was her twin.

Another human girl joined the argument. Aged 16 but with large round spectacles and some book in her hand, she spoke, "And even with success, there are consequences to time travel, Steve. Eldest brother understands that but you don't. You are reckless and bound to cause trouble, putting the history at risk of alteration."

Steve got frustrated. His feelings were clearly evident on his face which reddened. He couldn't help but shout at her, "I know the consequences of time travel, alright? I don't need you, clever clogs, to teach me what is right and wrong. Get lost, glasses."

"Hmpf, whatever." The girl with glasses didn't take his words much seriously and opened the book to continue her reading.

"Hey, that's not a way to treat your sister" "Steve, what are you doing? How dare you talk to her like that?" As the two elven twins started scolding Steve and the latter provoking them into a battle, the eldest of this group decided to end this pointless argument by coming in support of Steve, changing the equations in an instant.

Named Silver, the 17-year-old spoke, "Everyone, calm down for a second. Uncle Allen gave the spaceship to Steve as a birthday present. It is his right to use it however he wishes. And in the worst case, I'll request my mom to use the orb of chaos and cover up his mess. Of course, he will be facing consequences for that, but for now, we should give him an opportunity to prove himself that he is responsible too."

When Silver spoke of his opinion, the elves immediately calmed down and agreed with him. It was then the last remaining sibling, who didn't actively participate in the argument and stayed neutral until now, responded, "I will go with Steve, just in case."

"And don't worry, I'll just go to a few years back and make sure that I won't meet you, fellas," added Steve, looking quite a bit annoyed that people are not taking his opinion seriously. As the others agreed, Steve and James boarded a spaceship that looked more like a spider.

Once they got in and the doors were locked, Steve rushed toward the control system and started setting the time period.

Walking toward him, the curious sibling asked, "Where are we going?"

Steve then let out a smile, "To the Empire of Ixitus, 19 years prior."

"Wait a second." James was stunned for a moment. "You can't be serious. Just now you told…"

Steve cut him off as he pulled up the levers and pressed the switch, "Sorry bro, but I lied. We are going to save Dad by altering his timeline."

"What? But, that might…" Before James speaks anything, the time ship, otherwise known as the Chronos, launched toward space at the speed of light before eventually turning into specks of light and disappearing from the timeline.

After an unknown time;

In the skies of Ixitus Empire, during the time when chaos is occurring all over the world due to demonic possession, a portal opened and specks of light emerged from it before turning back into a time ship, only to crash on the ground and make a large crater instead of a soft landing.

"Ugh" "Ugh"

Groaning in pain, both of them got out of the ship. "Fu*k, you have really messed up this time, Steve," said James with a pale face. Seeing the dazed expression on his brother who was staring at a holographic screen, which could be seen by anyone but not the contents written on it, he asked, "Where are we stranded, anyways?"

Steve answered, "The location is correct but not the timeline. We have landed 194 days before Dad visits this world."

"Oh, boy," James shook his head.

Back to the Present;

At the tree house in Sylvandrial Dominion, Earth 486;

"And that is how we ended up here," said the 14-year-old Steve, explaining the whole disbelief.

Mark was the first to get out of his shock and spoke in English, "Let me get this story while leaving up some important details.

A long silence filled the room as Mark and Zan Rong stared at the teenagers in disbelief.

Mark was the first to get out of his shock and spoke in English, "Let me get this straight. I died and reincarnated as Lu Zhen, a prince of the Shang Dynasty in some fantasy world where people have superpowers from the comics. Both of you are my sons from the future and you came here in the time ship that I built to save me from some sort of disaster. In the process, your ship has been wrecked and both of you are stranded here for the past few months. Now, you need me to repair the ship too? Correct?"

Steve and James nodded in unison.

Mark became silent for a couple of seconds and then roared suddenly, "Don't both of you brats realize how absurd you sound? Let me talk to your superior. If he needs something from me, I will cooperate. There's no need to make me a mental patient. And I demand the anti-dote for this strange drug you guys put in my body right now," He then turned his head and sternly looked at Zan Rong, who is also in shock, "And Mari, you haven't answered about Allen. I need to see or atleast talk with my brother if you could help me."

Zan Rong couldn't properly digest the fact that Lu Zhen was her brother-in-law or atleast in his past life. Suddenly, everything made sense to her. No wonder Lu Zhen knew about modern weapons. No wonder Lu Zhen knew English. And no wonder Lu Zhen is looking after her too. It was because he has the memories of his past life.

If she hears this a few years ago, it would sound too absurd, but after she experienced the world of elves and powers erupting from the ether energy, the concept of reincarnation doesn't sound ridiculous at all.

Little did she know that Mark didn't reincarnate, but transmigrated. However, whether Steve and James kept this secret or were unaware of the secret is something that stays as a mystery for now.

Back to Mark, as he was clearly refusing to believe their explanation, thinking that his senses were altered by some kind of drug that will make it seem like he was in a different body than his own, James could only let out a sigh and spoke, "Fine, suit yourself, dad. Consider yourself as our prisoner for now. Repair our ship and we will free you. Until then, the effects of the drug will stay inside you."

"James." Steve couldn't believe his brother would play along with their Dad instead of clearing the misunderstanding. As James gestured for him to trust him, Steve calmed down himself by assuming that Mark will probably get to his senses once he experiences reality. He just needs to focus on protecting him. That will be enough.

"I knew it." Mark believed James' lie as it aligns with his theory. He added, "See, how easy it becomes if you kids just be truthful. Anyway, I have a bit of experience in handling jet engine repairs. Take me to the vehicle and let me take a look at it first."

Mark was obviously thinking about escape in his mind, but before making a plan, he would have to know the layout of the place he was in. He doesn't want to make the same mistake he did last time by resisting their orders from the start. This time, he decided to make them trust him.

It was at that moment the door at the front was knocked a couple of times before it was opened and a voice of a female was heard.

"Anyone home?"
