Neo could spend a decade in Shadow World and only an hour would've gone by in the real world.
"The opposite is also true.
"I can spend an hour here, and a decade might've passed in the real world.
"The time flow between different worlds is uneven, so I won't know how much time passed in the real world until I get out."
He clicked his tongue.
'I guess I don't need to worry about time.'
'The Shadow Supreme can manipulate the time flow between worlds to some extent.'
'If I pass the trial and impress him, he will make sure only a short amount of time had gone by in the real world.'
It was a chance for Neo.
He could use his time here to train himself.
"First thing first, I need to know where I am."
Neo looked through the place for anything that would reveal his location.
He found he was in Oran, a city in Algeria.
After knowing his location, Neo planned his next move.
He decided on three objectives.
"Search for Jack.
"Search for Child of Mana.
"Train myself."
His brows creased.
He tried to think of a solution to complete his objectives.
"Looking for Jack isn't easy.
"I don't know if he is in the same trial, or a different one.
"Even if he's in the same one, he could be anywhere. A different city. A different country. Or a different continent."
He scratched his temple.
"Child of Mana…
"Thankfully I know what a child of mana is, but this makes things more complicated.
"Those beings are rarer than Gods.
"Common people wouldn't even know what a Child of Mana is.
"If I want to search for one, my only clue is powerful organizations like Titans and the Awakener Association."
Awakener Association was the name of the resistance in the current era.
Joining either of the organizations wasn't easy.
Not only were their entrance requirements strict, Neo was suspicious from their point of view.
He was a powerful demigod – awakener – who suddenly popped into existence.
"There is a high chance they will think I'm a monster.
"I can solve this issue by hiding my strength, but they wouldn't recruit me if I'm weak."
He wanted to sigh.
"I need to train too."
He roamed the place while thinking of a solution.
An idea came to him when he was stargazing at midnight.
"This should work?"
The plan he came up with was simple.
"I need to spread my fame.
"If my name spreads far and wide, Jack can find me easily.
"Titans and the Awakener Association would also scout me if they hear of my strength instead of me going directly to them."
He jumped down from the building and landed on the ground.
Spider-like cracks appeared beneath his feet.
"Rescuing people is the best way to spread my fame in this era," he muttered.
Neo took a random direction and started walking.
There was no need to rush.
It would only tire him.
Besides, the age of gods was filled with bizarre monsters and anomalies.
He had to be careful.

It took him two days to come across a survivor.
The old man, brown hair, had scars on his face and a bushy beard.
He sat on the roadside, his back resting against the broken supermarket wall.
He held his bleeding torso, breathing heavily.
The man tensed up when he noticed someone approached him.
"Ah… a human…"
