Interfering with the Past

In a luxurious room, a young man was preparing for taking an important trial that would let him become the Emperor's successor.

He had just achieved immortality, but he was plenty confident about clearing the trial.

"Soon! Soon I will finally fulfill the expectations my father has on me. I must go now!"

The young man was about to leave the room when he noticed that a translucent person appeared just in front of the door, preventing him from leaving.

The young man wasn't sure if he could just go across that person, but his intuition told him to remain still.

The translucent person was Yale's consciousness that materialized in a past era, and the young man was the past self of the old man who was the Emperor's brother.

Yale was still a bit shocked that sending his consciousness to the past provoked a breakthrough on the Minor Time Divinity, but that just made it easier that he materialized being just his consciousness.
