Before this latest crossing, he had only just returned from the Tingen Squad's Detective Agency, where he had paid a Beyonder material to "borrow" Leonard's Dream Infiltration ability.
Now, however, the duration of the Dream Infiltration ability he could use had long since expired. Returning to this timeline had not allowed him to use it again.
Still, he suspected that the side effect of having a Beyonder ability stolen-no, borrowed-remained with Leonard. For twenty-four hours, Leonard would be unable to use the stolen Dream Infiltration.
Did this count as another "error" caused by jumping between timelines? According to the Celestial Worthy, the more he changed in this timeline, the more "errors" would arise in the future. Nimrod glanced at the countdown on the back of his hand and pondered for a while.
Traveling between different points in time was not an ability Sefirah Castle originally possessed. It could only have resulted from his transmigration. Every journey through time also brought certain errors, and in Nimrod's view, the errors affecting him fell into two categories:
The first involved changes to the Mysteries Timeline creating a chance of things that had never existed in reality appearing in the Circle of Inevitability Timeline. These errors were the past encroaching on the future.
The other involved changes that arose naturally from his act of "traveling through time." The state of his Beyonder abilities changed according to "his own time," without producing any additional effects on other people.

Nimrod had also anticipated to some extent that he would be unable to respond to other honorific names, though he thought this might be a contingency the Celestial Worthy had arranged
