Overturned Tower

After correcting his position and honestly uniting with the godfather, Tovatus no longer made any trouble.

He directly stated Kamalse's weakness——

"In theory, there are only three ways to defeat that man."

Tovatus had a rare smile on his face.

He said slowly: "The principle is very simple...His spells must use the field of view as a switching button.

"His glasses are not plain glasses... but myopia glasses with mismatched powers used to seal vision."

"Won't this permanently damage his vision?"

"The body of an elf can live for a thousand years, how could it be damaged by such a trivial matter."

Tovatus shook his head: "In other words, as long as you can blind him in some way, or block his vision with water bubbles, transparent helmets, etc., he can only use the time-stop ability;

"Similarly, if you knock his glasses away, he can only use the ability to rewind time."

"What if I just break one of the glasses?"

The barber asked: "Can he use them both at the same time, or not at all?"

"...Of course it's impossible to use them at the same time, otherwise he wouldn't be wearing myopia glasses, but a monocle."

Faced with this question, Tovatus fell into thinking: "I have not thought about this situation.

"But from a spell perspective, he should still be able to use Time Stop... because his vision is still blurry. The situation should be equivalent to wearing a monocle."

"He can stop for more than fifty minutes continuously at most. If you can blind him for more than an hour, and assuming that he keeps using time and stop continuously, he will eventually be unable to resist. But this possibility is almost non-existent, after all, he is also You're not a fool - most problems can be solved by just stopping. Fighting back against those who attack you is allowed by the dragon.

"Most of the people he used spells to erase their traces were not the ones who came to assassinate him...but were people who affected his interests or were ready to silence them."

As he said that, Tovatus glanced at Miss Morgan next to him: "For example, this cute pony."

"As long as it affects his vision, can he block his ability to use time reversal..."

It sounds very feasible.

but……

"In that case, he will have the ability to stop time again."

"This is the choice."

Tovatus spread his hands: "I can only tell you how to reduce the two abilities he holds to one.

"Personally, I still prefer that you kill him the moment he takes off his glasses. This is the most balanced and effective method in my opinion.

“When he cannot use Time Stop immediately, he will prioritize self-preservation...that is to say, he will try to rewind everything around him.

"For example, sniper rifle bullets, or artillery shells, bombs, and mines. Restore their status or position to a day ago. Just use an attack that he can't reverse...for example, a poison that can paralyze his mind, or a curse that makes him instantly comatose. .

"A major flaw in his ability is that he cannot turn back his own time. If he is injured, he cannot use this spell to turn himself back to a day ago. But he can just grab anyone he sees within his field of vision. Turn back the time of the entire world and try to change this future.

"According to mother's memory... when he rewinds the time of the world, he must look at someone. In other words, he can only activate this spell by 'clearly seeing someone'."

"Yes. And you need to keep looking at each other."

Morgan on the side testified with great certainty: "Every time he knocked me down first, and then used this spell... I was still thinking about what invisible thing knocked me down. It turned out that it was me in time. The injuries sustained in the suspended world..."

"The spell he uses to turn back time in the world needs to activate time?"

The barber captured an important detail: "How long exactly?"

"...I didn't pay attention. About five or six seconds? It might have been shorter than one or two seconds...but I'm not sure if it was an illusion when I was about to die."

Morgan was not sure: "It's not used instantly anyway. Because he would say something to me every time."

"He can't turn back his own time?"

The barber captured the key point: "That means I can kill him with slow poison or a curse?

"Yes, anything in his body cannot be affected by his ability. Assuming you have a way to make him swallow explosives, you can kill him. He can't get memories after turning back time. As long as it's one day If time cannot change the outcome, you cannot save yourself no matter what."

"This is the second way...I originally planned to do this, but it was too late."

Tovatus had some regrets: "We have to end it all within one day... Neither the second nor the third one can be used."

"So, what about the third way?"

"The principle is simple, but the operation is very troublesome."

Tovatus shook his head: "Suppose there was a poisonous flying knife thrown at Kamalse who took off his glasses and was about to turn back time.

"He didn't have time to put on his glasses at this time, so he could only choose to rewind the time of the flying knife to the position 24 hours ago.

"——Then, what if twenty-four hours ago, I still appeared here and threw the throwing knife at him at exactly the right time?"

Just control the time well and overlap the two kills twenty-four hours apart.

You can complete this kill.

...When the poisonous flying knife was thrown yesterday, it had already killed the future Kamalse.

This is also a way. As long as the design is sophisticated enough, it can be accomplished.

but……

One day was too late.

The barber and Morgan looked at each other.

"Let's try the first method first."

He said solemnly: "If it fails, go back and try the third method again."

Although Tovatus couldn't kill Director Camarthur in those few seconds.

But it’s not necessarily something that the barber can’t do.

Because he has another helper...

——Bad day.

"But before that, let's optimize the plan..."

The barber thought for a moment: "I will appear with you when the time comes."

"no!"

Morgan and Tovatus refused in unison.

"That's too dangerous... If it doesn't work, just give up on me."

Morgan rejected the barber's plan with an extremely fierce attitude: "My existence is not worthless. At least I have made you an alliance, and I may be able to defeat him in the future..."

"It's really not necessary."

Tovatus frowned: "No matter what, Miss Morgan will die at twelve o'clock in the morning tonight. It's just a matter of letting her witness Camalse or not. There is really no need to rush."

"In that case," the barber decided to reveal something, "I might as well say a little more...why I must help Miss Morgan.

"——Originally, I decided to assassinate Director Camarse tonight. The specific time was around twelve o'clock in the morning."

Hearing this, Tovatus and Morgan were stunned.

They soon realized the meaning of this sentence——

"But at least until 3:30 tomorrow, he will still..."

Morgan blurted out.

In the first week, the fact that she was sent back by Camarse to turn back the time of this world meant one thing.

That is, the godfather's assassination plan failed.

Otherwise, Kamalse would not be able to survive until 3:30 tomorrow morning.

But starting from the second week, she has not seen the godfather around midnight...

this means--

"Yes. When you come back, the future has been changed."

The barber looked at Morgan with complicated eyes: "As early as when I learned about his ability, I vaguely guessed the truth... and after learning about Tovatus' mother, I was able to believe that my guess was correct.

"——You have already saved me once without knowing it, Miss Morgan. This is my repayment."

...just like Tovatus' mother personally went back to the past and changed the outcome of his death.

The fact that Morgan was sent back to the past... is also correcting the ending of Russell's failed assassination in another timeline!
