Gratitude

He felt different. The feeling of this awakening was a little different than that offered by the bastards outside. He felt more powerful and free, as if he could do anything.

"Oh, this is new. I've never seen anyone with Type: Colorless. I heard rumors, the God of Thunder being one of them, but never personally. Apparently, Paragons of this type can learn any skill. Can only those who awaken through the Altar of the Gods be able to earn this 'Type'?" He wondered.

After that, his eyes fell on his skills.

Her eyes widened.

"This is… Soul Skills are rare, extremely rare and I never had any. Leticia got one after passing a trial at a fifth floor temple, she mentioned once. Not only did I keep my time reset skill, it became a Soul Skill, but I also acquired two other Soul Skills, and one of them is part of the famous and overpower skills, a 'Type/Force' skill."

Skills that have the name of a "Type" and have "Force" in their names, are skills said to be the source of the power of Types.

They are rare, powerful and simply give the Paragon in question an absolute advantage.

And they are Soul Skills, which means that no matter what happens to your body, as long as you own your soul, you will have them in any situation.

He didn't need to see his skill window Reset to know that its effect was 1000 MP for every second he wants to return.

"Wow… These two skills have alarming potential. I have an absolute defense and an absolute attack, and both can provide both attack and defense." He swallowed hard and then sighed. "I must beware of the Paragons that came before this group and have been leveling for a long time, some even have years."

He focused his attention on his memories.

"If I'm not mistaken, there is a trap on the east side of the Temple, I even had a scar to prove it, but now... I'll take the west side."

He turned and stopped. Tawnne frowned.

There was a young man with short, messy black hair of the nerdy type. Green eyes, good looking, but nerdy type, who is handsome but shy and not seen clearly.

Yes, he is a man, but he is not blind.

The teenager, who must have been younger than him, was pretending to read Soul Contract.

Strangely, the young man was familiar.

The boy looked up and stared at him. Tawnne noticed him shiver and pretend it was okay.

Feigning courage, the young man walked to the altar pretending to know what he was doing.

Tawnne rolled her eyes and simply left.

As soon as he crossed the force field around the temple, he stopped in place.

"Shit!"

He remembered where he had seen this young man.

It was in their previous timeline, right on the first day. After signing the contract, Tawnne left at about the same time as this young man and on the same side.

The two faced the ambush set by some Paragons who had been in this world for years and that young man was killed almost instantly after an act of altruism and pushed him away from an arrow.

The boy died and he survived.

He might not do charity anymore, at least not by the will and kindness of his heart, and he might not be benevolent either, but still, he had pride and character.

"I can't waste time now, but if someday, if fate wants it, I'll pay the debt."

He swore. In the previous timeline, both he and that teenager did not go through True Awakening at the Altar of the Gods, but somehow, upon going back in time, he changed that, so he had to believe that the teenager would have a way to survive. He bet on the ability of the young.

He entered the forest and disappeared. He needed to research everything about this "King". In his years of adventure and constant danger, he heard some rumors about some kings out there.

"The first thing I heard was about a king born on that same floor after a few years I was transported to this world. There was a mysterious organization that was involved and… I didn't pay attention as that drunk told the rest of the story in that bar. "

…

Many hours later, he faced the fight hidden among some ants.

"…"

He always knew that time travel has some unexpected consequence, but that was ridiculous.

That teenager who died saving him in the previous timeline was fighting on a level playing field against beings capable of destroying cities like New York without any problem.

Marcel, the most powerful teleporter in history and Aaron the Ice Reaper, were both known as the most powerful Paragons duo in the entire dungeon, capable of fighting against gods and demons. According to what you've heard, whether in this timeline or in the past, it's been years since both of you are in this world and somehow, in the near future, can find a way to travel between the floors they once were, even though apparently impossible. go back to the previous floor, except going back in time.

After some research and torture, he discovered that these Chimera-Ants are pests that must be exterminated as soon as possible, as they are capable of destroying life and possibly the world if they are set aside to evolve.

And here it was, a sixteen-year-old brat, fighting and giving a headache to the royal guards and two world-caliber Paragons.

And what's up with those damn golden eyes?

When he first saw them, his mind went straight to the "King" who emerged moments after Leticia died and he was about to return to the past.

Oh of course! We must not forget that for some bizarre reason, the king of ants who was to be born only a few years into the future was about to be born, for he was absorbing the energy of all the dead in this steadily increasing place.

"Tsk… saving the world is getting harder and harder." He gritted his teeth and advanced on appearing before Rowen Lahey using an unusual speed skill that seemed to be warping space to make everything closer to him.

His deflection shield extended around the two and began to crack as it received that radius of more than two meters in diameter thrown by the royal guard.

That royal guard had some feline features and a curious look mixed with anticipation and malice.

Without warning, the scenery changed and Tawnne was where Uvon, the male but effeminate butterfly-winged guard, was, and Uvon emerged inside the deflector shield.

He caught a glimpse of Rowen disappearing from inside the shield and leaving behind only black smoke.

The shield broke like a mirror and Uvon received all of Nerpheri's attack, but had enough time to use his wings as a shield.

"Okay, that was weird." This kind of teleportation where it looks like the scenery changes and not him, is weird and bizarre, in Tawnne's humble and sincere opinion.

Shaking his head, he focused on the fight.
