Things Fall Apart [Pt 1]

One second.

Five seconds.

Ten seconds… and then one minute.

"What's going on? Where's Neron?" I found myself blurting out.

Timeless World was supposed to take a mere instance for us, so it was surprising to notice how a minute passed without any sign of Neron.

'What's happening?' A dark thought crept into my mind, but I didn't want to imagine it until it was the only choice left.

'Is Neron messing with us? No… he wouldn't do that at this point. Then, where is he?' I ran many simulations in my head, wondering what could have happened.

Did he undo Timeless World for some reason? Did he have to interact with something? But, even if it were the latter, only he and that thing would be moving out of time.

'T-then… are we also in Timeless World?' I doubted it, considering the clouds were moving, and everything seemed normal.
