[Michael Aroa's POV]

...…..

...…..

I looked at the System notification as I observed the guy finally evaporating into nothingness

[You have been blessed by the Charybdis Ingrate!]

[Blessing of the Charybdis: You have gained the ability to see or hear things that are otherwise not possible]

"What the heck?" I spoke out loud as I saw the message. I was fucking killing that guy and here he was blessing me? Did he hit his head or something?

'Man! That's weird,' I thought as I looked at it before another string of information flew in front of me.

[Clear the Underground tunnel of the South City Station(Completed)!]

[Description: After the collapse of the Black Water City, most of the underground zombies have been trapped within the underground tunnels and have turned into Elite Zombies, another end pathway of evolution for the zombies. Kill all the zombies present there.

Total Zombies: 0!

Elite B-Grade: 0

Elite Lesser A-Grade: 0

Elite A-Grade: 0

Elite S-Grade: 0]

[Rewards: +25 Skill Points; +25 Stat Points: Random Skill Level Up]

[Skill: [Time Flow] has been leveled up!]

'Ah! I should get rid of that Skill. It's pretty much useless to me now,' I thought as I realized that I had just wasted the random skill level up reward. Well… whatever…

[The Ruler of the Black Water City(Completed)!]

[The S-Grade Zombie Voltaire is taking its path to the Ascension to another level. Make sure to kill him before it's late]

[Reward: Breath of the Night(Self Enchantment)]

'Hmmm Voltaire? Wasn't his name Charybdis? Did I miss something?' I questioned. I looked at the name, wondering what was going on here.

'When will I get attacked?'

[51 Years: 10 Months: 14 Days]

There were a few more notifications out there as well

[You have killed a peak Elite S-Grade Zombie!]

[+ 3,500,000 Exp!]

But they didn't really add to anything, so I just skipped them.

Then my eyes looked at the Core in front of me

-BOOOM!!!!

I looked back at the entrance. It was previously blocked by my plants, now broken by Walter as the three entered here. George, Irene and Walter.

"Sir Michael, are you okay?" George asked as he ran towards me. Then halted his steps. His eyes looked at me and then at the room around, widening as they tried to comprehend what happened here.

"It's fine," I thought as I decided something and then moved towards the Core one step at a time.

"Sir Michael?" Walter asked with a bit of complexity and I just kept walking towards the Core. There was something that I wanted to check. Especially after that Green Core in the laboratory.

"Wait for me for a moment," I spoke as I touched the Core and…

[A strange energy wants to invade your consciousness and connect with it. Would you like to accept its connections?]

[Yes/No!]

'Just like I thought,' I looked at the screen before selecting the [yes] option. Just like last time, the whole scenery changed.

My eyes opened up to find a red-coloured desert with mountains of red in the distance. The sky was blue and cold wind brushed past my face as I looked around to find something…

[Find me! I beg you! Please find me!]

A message came in front of my screen. Unlike my green coloured screen, it was reddish. "I guess it's from the person whose Core it is," I thought as I looked at the screen.

So…

[Eyes of the TimeKeeper(Multidimensional Timeline)]

I used this ability to check the path from here. Normally it would have just shown my next few seconds' movements and nothing more, but when combined with

"If I walk there, will I reach the voice?"

A time appeared in almost all the timelines. Some were way too high while others showed infinity… and among them, there was a specific one that I wanted to see

[17 days: 14 hours: 12 minutes]

Looking at that being the least one among here, I activated my ability

[Temporal Deceleration!]

[Temporal Deceleration(Copy)!]

And began running towards the location where that guy was supposed to be. Where the message wanted me to reach.

While I was running, I came across many mountains. Many deserts. Unsurprisingly, I didn't come across even a single tree. It was as if trees didn't even exist here. I tried looking for anything in particular, but honestly, I still couldn't find anything at all.

And after traveling for 17 and a half days continuously, I finally reached the place where I needed to be. A humongous pyramid was present in front of me. Walking closer to it, I tried searching for the entrance. It was on the other side.

Moving around the Pyramid, when I reached the entrance, which was kind of… advanced? At least compared to the rest of the world. Another message appeared in front of me on the same red coloured screen.

[The Pyramid of Voltaire! The legacy holder of the General Artemis!]

[Checking for the vhallenger's ID]

[ID matched: The Void Clearer!]

[Please proceed into the Dungeon to start the challenge!]

"Eh? Void Clearer?" I thought as I observed the name. It was getting a bit more freaky for no reason… well… I hope it's nothing too out of hand.

Slowly, I moved into the dungeon as I walked through the entrance, then followed in a tunnel before a wide room came in front of me.

My eyes widened as I looked at things that were going on inside that room. Though it was a really wide room, there was little space compared to that. Almost 70% of the room was filled with strange things flying around. Mostly made of stone, there were golems, stone animals, stone beings, flying in a circle in a rhythmic manner as they levitated up and down.

There was a small arena at the center of the room where a grayish red humanoid wolf was standing with his eyes closed. A spear in the hand, half naked from above but wearing an Egyptian sort of headgear.

As soon as I stepped into the ring, his eyes slowly opened up and a red screen came in front of me.

[Will you challenge the Gate Keeper of the Red Night Castle, Armes De Regalia?]

[Difficulty: SSS-Grade]

[Yes/No]

'Since most of the difficulty is based on my base stats, I guess it's fine,' I thought as I pressed [Yes] before moving inside the arena.

[Inspect!]

[Armes De Regalia]

[Born to protect his King and his castle, he has given all his life to hone his defenses. His excellent spearmanship is on par with the strongest spearmen of this Universe. His eyes can pierce the truth and see through your heart to find out what exactly you are trying to do!]

'That's all? Hmmm…. I guess it must be a high-class dungeon or something?' I thought as I moved inside the ring, closer to him.

"It has been a while since another challenger entered this place… what is your name?" that guy asked as he looked at me with his dark red eyes.

"Michael Aroa," I smiled as I looked at him before he chuckled as he spoke,"Funny name. I guess you came from another world?"

"Something like that," I spoke as he observed me and he looked at me with warm eyes as he spoke,

"You are a kind soul, aren't you?"

A bit confused, I looked at him and he spoke again,

"I can just see through the hearts of the people. Don't think much about it. Well, I don't mind losing to someone as kind as you. But you have to earn that."

Understanding what he meant, I nodded before he spoke,

"But you are too weak… Are you sure you want to challenge me? I don't mind letting you go back, you know? Get strong and come again."

His eyes looked at me with a bit of pity and I smiled as I spoke,"It's all right. I am stronger than most people think. I might even surprise you," and hearing my words, he narrowed his eyes at me before he chuckled out loud and spoke,

"Is that so? Fair enough. I want to see where that confidence comes from."

Then I saw him taking a stance, and I smiled before taking out the steel rod out of the [Time Storage] and his eyes widened as he spoke out loud,

"Wait! Wait! Wait! Don't tell me you are going to fight with that?!"

His eyes were really confused, and a complex expression appeared on his face as he observed me.

"I don't know if you are really poor to buy even a sword, or just a fool who is too confident in his skills," he sighed before he pressed his forehead with his hand, as if he was having a headache. Then, with his other hand, he clicked his fingers as a couple of swords came out of nowhere and then he spoke.

"At least take one from them. I wouldn't like it at all if my opponent couldn't even display his full potential… seems unfair."

I just chuckled as I didn't deny his offer and picked one of the weapons from his arsenal.

[The Healer's Sword(Rare)!]

[Created by one of the best craftsmen of this world, it was a sword given to the Battle Healer. One of the Generals of the Kurdish Army. The battle healer then enchanted the sword with his own magic, making it more powerful than ever.

"Now you look good. Shall we fight now?" He smiled as he looked at me, and I nodded before preparing my weapon as well.
