Time flowed differently within the Underworld.
It was a realm of the dead. It was a place where countless things came to perish.
And among them… even time itself went there to die.
The flow of time within the realm was so low that it was almost motionless. Moments stretched endlessly, while days passed like drifting shadows beneath the skies of the Underworld.
That was why, despite Adam having spent several days wandering through that terrifying realm, only a few minutes had passed in the material world.
To the living universe outside, his disappearance had only lasted an instant.
And yet, even a few minutes were enough for countless things to happen during a war.
Battles could be decided in seconds. Entire armies could collapse in moments. A single mistake was often close enough to change the fate of kingdoms and worlds alike.
