After calming himself down for a moment, Desmond glanced back at the transparent screen and saw the time really ticking in the slow movement.
Desmond sighed and then got up from his knee. He turned around only to meet with Annie's cold expression staring at him.
Although her expression appears to be cold, she still could not hide the shining stars from her big orange eyes, tracking between his pocket and the corpse.
This only happened for a moment before she finally realized her young master was staring at her, and her big curios eyes immediately turned to normal.
Looking at her actions, Desmond felt amused. Her face was so beautiful, yet she did not dare ask him or boldly still staring at his actions.
Maybe because Desmond was being used to Laura's behavior, he almost forgot how the subordinate should be.
"Let's go back," Desmond spoke and nodded in satisfaction.
He was already kind enough to let her witness the absorption process. Still, letting her witness this, did not mean he should explain all of his ability.
As soon Desmond arrived back where the soldier fainted, he was surprised.
"Huh? Who are you?" the soldier that should be faint surprisingly was standing with his sword unsheathed. He looked like nothing different from before as he stood at the same place with the same posture.
Wait, is this a time loop? Desmond thought. His eyes curiously staring and scanning the entire body of the soldier.
When the soldier saw his actions, the soldier immediately raised his voice and warily prepared for battle, "In the name of the king dome, come out and say your name!"
What? This time Desmond was dumbfounded. Why would the soldier still question his identity even though he already standing not too far from him?
Don't say you also erased his memories about our journey? Desmond glanced back and silently, staring at Annie that was looking at the soldier in a frown.
I don't dare, young master, Looking at her young master expression, she replied with a magic message.
The two of them were bewildered by the soldier before. With the time still ticking, the soldier slowly taking a step forward with his hands and feet were seen became reddish, and many veins pooped out.
"Please stop your joke, uncle. Did you really forget my face?" Desmond spoke and stepped forward as his entire body was immediately exposed to the soldier, leaving the tree shadow enveloped them before.
"Ohhh, it's you, young master!" The soldier immediately lowered his weapon and spoke politely to him. However, his expression changed, and then glared at them once again, "What are you doing here, young master? This is a private area. Please don't wander around."
Upon seeing the soldier's face, Desmond sighed in relief. He did not fear enemies, ghosts, or non-human creatures. However, it was totally different for time manipulation.
He can die without knowing how. He would find his clones at another time. Imagine if his clone has the same intelligence as him and then started to plot each other.
"No, I don't. We've been doing a spar before. As a result, you lose and fainted on the ground. Thus, I wandered around this area for a while and waiting for you to wake up," Desmond replied nonchalantly as he kept walking forward instead of leaving this area in a hurry.
Before the soldier could retort his words, Desmond countered, "If you do not believe, you can check the ground we used to spar was in a mess with some strand of your hairs fall on the ground."
As soon he spoke these words, Desmond and his maid already making a great distance with the soldier while the soldier staring at him dumbfoundedly before turning his attention toward the cracked ground near him.

After several minutes of walking, Desmond finally arrived at his carriage. However, before he reached his carriage, another person bothered him again.
"Hel..lo... De....s...mmon." Desmond turning his head to the side and saw Diana was with her soldier lowering her head in embarrassment and calling his name.
"Hello again, miss Diana," Desmond replied with a faint smile. He still remembered she was angry only because he called him using a formality, unlike his mother.
And sure enough, upon hearing his words, her hair falling forward with her expression was seen disappointed.
She raised her head trembly and tried to stare at his eyes," Umm.... can....we...talllllk a for a moment?" she asked and bite down her lower lip after that.
On the other hand, Desmond grunted inwardly. Waiting for her to gather courage and then speak in a shutter way makes him annoyed. Coupled with right now, he was in a hurry to absorb the energy.
"I'm sorry, miss Diana. I'm a bit tired after strolling this area and want to rest. If you don't mind, can we talk this another time?" Desmond replied.
Of course, he spoke those empty words only for courtesy. Yet, he immediately received a glare from the soldier behind her.
Hooh, a mere soldier dared to look at me with those eyes, Desmond thought and glanced coldly at the soldier.
When the soldier saw his eyes, he felt his consciousness was sucked into the strange black room. In the middle, he was standing with big slit eyes hovering in front of him, staring directly into his soul.
His body became tremble and unconsciously took a step backward. When he back to the real world, his face already paled.
With his shaky eyes, he tried to look at Desmond again. However, he was scared and immediately lowered his head. "Please, forgive my rudeness, young master!"
The soldier shouted loudly, making Diana, standing in front of her, jump in surprise.
Her eyes glared at him for a moment before turning her head to Desmond and reply, "Oooo...kay, Desmond. See you tommm....morrow." With her lower lips bleeding, Diana hurriedly back to her carriage.
Her fist clenched hard, making her nails pierced her palms, yet she didn't realize leaving a blood trail in front of Desmond.
On the other hand, Desmond did not reply to the soldier nor cared about Diana's adamant. He casually turned around and give a snort to him before pulling the door handle.
"Know your place. You so lucky you're still alive right now." After Desmond entered, Annie that following him, spoke differently toward the soldier. Coupled with her cold stare, the soldier was hurt by her words.
"Ye..s mam," the soldier smiled wryly at her and turned around to give an explanation to his young lady.
