"The Prince's birthday?" Karyk mumbled under his breath, his expression filled with confusion. The uncertainty lingered in his mind. He was unsure if he had truly traveled back in time or if it was merely an illusion held within the pages of the Book. Would his actions in this moment have the power to alter the course of the future, or was he merely a passive observer?

Amidst the uncertainty, one thing remained clear to him. He found himself in an era of civilization. Whether real or illusory, the significance of this moment could not be undermined. It held the key to unraveling the secrets behind the secrets that the Archangels sought, as well as the key that they called him. "Are you listening, brat?" The sharp voice came again. Karyk raised his head. He did not know what he was supposed to be doing here. What was his identity? If it was just an illusion, then how was the old man talking to him? 'Is my illusion based on another person's reality in the past?'

He did not know who had written the book that was called Heaven's Path. But if he had taken someone's place in this illusion, then it could only be the place of the book author. 'If it is an illusion, my actions should not change the flow of things much. If I tried, I would most probably be thrown out of the illusion, and return to reality, without getting the answers I need.'

He did not know if this was an illusion or reality. But he could not take the risk to rest it either. If it was an illusion and he wasted this opportunity, he wasn't sure if he could ever return. Not just the answer related to the key, but even the answer related to this world was kept in this illusion. Even if he could not find what the Archangels wanted, as long as he found a way to use his powers in this world, it was good enough. In this illusion, his first priority was finding the thing that kept powers suppressed in this world. Just as he came to a decision, he felt someone hit the back of his head. "If you understand, then answer me! Seriously, I don't understand why they select idiots! Where do they even find people like you?" The old man kept looking down on Karyk. Karyk did not argue back. If it was the real world, he might have thought about killing this man, but in this world, he did not try to do that. His first priority was letting this illusion follow its pace. If he had to work in this part of the illusion, he was willing. As long as he could get close to the other workers, it was a good opportunity to get answers. "I will get to work." Just to get the old man off his back, Karyk agreed with him. He joined the group of other youngsters, who were also leaving the City. From the era he came, the walls around the city were closed. There were no gates in the wall. But in this era, there was a huge gate. He did not know if the wall had closed itself when the Civilization disappeared, but it again convinced him that the wall was more alive than everyone knew. He just did not know the method to control this wall. Could this wall cover the entire city, including the sky? He didn't know. The only thing certain was that the Children of Heaven did not know the method yet. Karyk followed the group of similarly dressed people. Along the way, he tried talking to them. But none answered or seemed interested in replying. In the entire group, not a single person was talking to each other. Instead, they all looked at each other like they were competitors. "Are you new?" Just as Karyk was about to give up, he heard a voice. "How did you know?" Karyk asked back.

"Scared? I have never been scared." The young man proudly stated.

"In that case, can you tell me where we are going?"

Karyk did not even know what they were supposed to be doing. He was just following the group of youngsters that was following the old man that kept nagging him before. "You didn't even know that? How did you even get selected?" The young man was surprised. "I am honestly impressed by you. And here I thought, I was the worst at my job."

"I am really curious. Where are we going?" Karyk asked again, ignoring the jokes. "We are going to the Ocean. The Oceanic Species are going to bring the gifts for Prince's birthday. We just have to escort them and the gifts to the Palace."

"It's the first birthday of the young prince after all. So many people are coming from far away. I heard even Angels will be coming!" The young man said with excitement.
