[Michael's POV]
…
…
In the utter darkness that shrouded my entire being, I tried looking around the area. Wondering what I should do now? Should I use [The Defier]?
Though after pondering a bit more, I decided to not use it. Let's use this first,
[God Power: Reverse Time]
[Using the Crona Energy of the Universe itself, the user can reverse time to a previous state. Note that the user can only reverse time up to where he had the ability to manipulate time.
Requirements: The user needs to be completely free of any emotional disturbance of any sorts
Cost: 10 Golden Crona per second]
[Total Golden Cronas: 180]
Since it had been less than a few seconds,
[God Power: Reverse Time!]
For the next 7 seconds, I saw no change, before I found myself back at the position where that woman in black was about to cover me in black shadows and then…
[God Power: Temporal Pause!]
[Allows the user to pause time for others. All Stats will be stopped at the same points and there would never be any change in the System Status until the ability is used.
Cost: 1 Golden Crona per second!]
I paused the time as I walked outside the area behind her. Turning around, I saw a black sphere covering the area around where I was standing before.
Starting the time again, I saw her looking at the place where the sphere covered everything, then began shrinking until it was gone from existence.
"Ooo! That looks scary," I spoke with a slightly agitated expression, making Angela turn at me with a baffled expression as she jumped back.
She then spoke some words as I saw my body degrading into pieces, falling… at least in the future.
[Time Rejection!]
I used that ability and just kinda scratched my head looking at her,"listen lady. I have a few questions for you. Can we please talk nicely?"
Though her expression turned even more baffled as she spoke in a loud and agitated voice,"who are you?"
Unlike before, where she was looking down on me, she was now very… very cautious of me.
"[Chambers of Blurred World]" she spoke as a certain energy spread around me, changing the entire scene in front of me.
If before we were within the laboratory, now we were in a barren land, with nothing but rocks as far as I could see. In the sky, I could see a few moons and planets at a distance, but there was no sun. Only stars.
"Are we on a different planet or something?" my eyes widened as I observed her powers. Was that even possible? Though she didn't answer me as she continued to chant.
In the foreseeable future, I saw the world itself had started to consume me, and I pondered how I should deal with it. It won't be a matter of simply cutting things down, since it seemed like the entire planet was against me.
'Is there a way I can destroy the entire planet? Though I am not sure if I can get back home that way. Thankfully, I didn't use [The Defier]. Hopefully, it will take me back to my planet without much problem,' I breathed out in relief as I looked at that woman, who had almost finished her chants.
-BOOM!
Jumping high up in the air, I dodged the incoming attack from below. The ground molded itself in the form of a spike as it grew higher and higher, almost reaching me.
-BOOOM!!!
Using my spear skills, I cut down the ground into pieces before standing up on a floor created by
[Time Shield]
She looked at me standing up in the air, and she herself levitated in the air as she finally spoke,
"Who are you?"
"Eh? For someone who attacked me out of nowhere, transported me to this godforsaken place, and is still trying to kill me. Shouldn't you be the one introducing yourself first?" I spoke in a baffled voice, as it didn't seem fair to me at all.
Her eyes narrowed at me as she muttered a few words and I felt the air around me being thinned out to zero. I kind of understood that she was trying to make me run out of breath, but…
[The slumbered one: The one who has slept for 10,000 years. He does not find any necessity of food, water or energy. He can survive without anything at all and even breathing that should be most necessary to one's life, he can live without it.]
Because of this [Title], I didn't really need to worry about my breathing here. Or perhaps anywhere. There was one more thing that I understood, which I hadn't noticed before. It was that I could use multiple titles at once.
'Nice,' I smiled brightly as I loved this addition. Though looking at her, Angela, she seemed to be getting a bit more cautious each time I smiled. I could see the tension in her eyes rising as she tried her best to analyze me, but it didn't seem like she was reaching anywhere with that.
"I am… Angela. The Watcher of Darkness… the 7th Ingrate of General Belial," she spoke as she looked at me with a bit of pride, though looking at no change in my expression, her expression became a little bewildered.
'Hmmm? Does she want me to feel scared of this General Balial or something?' I was confused as I wondered about it. And soon I even asked,
"Ummm… who is this General Belial? And… ummm… what is an Ingrate?"
Though it made her even more bewildered than before, she stopped all her attacks and stood there observing me.
"You really… don't know?" she spoke as she looked at my expression and I shook my head with a bit of an awkward expression before speaking,
"Well. What should we do now? I can't really kill you right now because I need a bit of information… So can you please stop attacking me? I don't want to end up killing you by mistake or something."
I was as honest as possible and she looked at me with her eyes shaken… before slight fury entered in her eyes as she then spoke,
"Looks like you are underestimating me… that would be a big mistake."
The entire planet then started shaking violently as a storm developed around us with a dozen tornadoes forming all around us. The tornado contained a certain black coloured energy, which made my skin crawl a little.
[Warning! A strange energy is surrounding the host! Host please be careful!]
Looking at the message… I was quite calm. I was still using [Eyes of the Time Keeper] and yet there was no visible threat in the near future. For some reason, I even felt that it was fine as it was…
After the number of tornadoes doubled, I saw my Stats getting low and my energy being drained by the tornadoes, which was making the tornadoes much more ferocious than they already were.
"Now. Are you sure you can act as carefreely as before?" she spoke with her pride, lifting her up a little.
Though honestly…
"Ummm… are you done now? I really am trying to be patient here, you know?" I spoke as I looked at her with a slightly annoyed expression.
