[You have returned back to present time.]
Adrian returned to Alfheim and directly went to Elder Danaya. Fortunately for him, the elders of the Faekin can easily be found as they do not go outside as much as the elders of the Daemos. In other words, a lot of the elders of the Faekin have extra time which is why some might do pranks, or they are extremely lazy.
"Tell you about Farmer Vincent's death? That is such an eerie question, but it seems that you will search for him in the afterlife. As expected of the Champion of the Twin Gods! Even death of mortals would not stop you from searching for the things that you want." Elder Danaya stated.
"Yeah! That is right! Any information would be nice please." Adrian stated.
"Unfortunately, I was not there when he died at the time. I was only able to know of his death when the blessing I gave him was suddenly cut off. I went to the main world a few days after that and disguised myself as a traveling gypsy. He apparently fell of the cliff as he was hounded by Inquisitors if I am not mistaken.
I do not know why the Inquisitors of the Church of Light did that, but I am glad that the evil church has dissolved. They committed to many atrocities which is far worse than stealing special festivals from us. I hope that you find the soul of the poor Farmer Vincent and tell him that I love the sweet potatoes that he cultivated." Elder Danaya stated as some form of sap suddenly slowly dripped out from a corner of her mouth.
"It seems you were the culprit of stealing crops which is why I cannot use them even though I managed to pluck it." Adrian muttered to himself.
"Did you say something?" Elder Danaya asked.
"Nothing! I better find this cliff as his soul might still be trapped in the mortal realm. Thank you very much, Elder Danaya!" Adrian stated as he vanished and appeared back to the area where Wheatville was or what it is more known as the ruins of the fallen empire.
Adrian managed to find the cliff in question and sent pulses of death energy in the area but there were no souls nor undead. He thought that the dark god that descended might have eaten the soul in question, but the area was too far from the actual ruins. It was approximately five hours away by fast flight which means it is ten hours away by foot.
The distance might have increased due to the expansion of the world, but it can only be an hour away at the very least. The wandering souls here would not be affected by the dark god that descended. Adrian also tried for necromancy, but Charon told him that no necromantic magic was done here for the past two decades at the very least.
"If he fell from the cliff then a body should have been found but the other end of the cliff is pure rocks. Reverse Gravity!" Adrian shouted as he used all of his mana to lift up all the rocks that were on the bottom of the cliff.
Adrian wanted to check if a skeletal body was there but there were no remains. Even Charon told him that there is no energy of resentment in the area. It means that no being died here without getting found or their body found. It was like Farmer Vincent vanished before he plunged down into the rocks below.
"The height is also no laughing matter as it should be at least ten miles. It might have become taller, but it would be a mile high at least. Unless he was swept by a large bird monster of prey, he would have fallen to his death. If he was eaten by a bird monster, then a juicy story like that would have been told to Elder Danaya." Adrian thought as he tried another way.
[You have slightly opened the doors of the afterlife to commune with the beings that died here.]
"I want to talk with the soul of Farmer Vincent." Adrian stated but there was no reply. All the souls that replied to Adrian were either monsters or human souls that did not look like Farmer Vincent.
"In the end, I must go back in time and see how he died. Or at least get his permission to use his crops before he died." Adrian stated as he took out the trowel again.
The trowel looked like it was rusting quickly more than ever, and Adrian knows of the cause. Adrian is using the residual attachment in the trowel. He is basically purifying the trowel with each use, and it is starting to become a normal item.
"I think I can only use it once more after this before it starts to shatter. I should finish what I need to do before going back. Let us just hope that Elder Koronn is not as vigilant this time." Adrian stated as he activated temporal magic once more to create a temporal portal.
[You have arrived a hundred years into the past.]
[You have arrived at a point in time where a great change occurred.]
[Be careful in what you do as you might change the flow of events.]
"I get it. Now where is Farmer Vincent?" Adrian muttered as he arrived at the same time of day when he left the present.
Adrian wandered back to Farmer Vincent's field and saw him busily farming. He then found a suspicious woman talking with the farmer. Adrian can feel the energy of darkness present on the woman, and he knew that this was the witch.
Adrian wanted to see what was happening, but he might be spotted by the witch or rather the devil contractor of the witch. He was debating on what to do about the witch, but he suddenly heard the fearsome scream of the witch. She was screaming at the top of her lungs as if she was dying.
