Chapter 308 Beginning of Something Big
Getting out of the [Second Space], I then moved back to the same old Black and white wasteland that was bland as far as I could look at. My eyes observed each and everything as far as I could before
[Warp!]
I moved about kilometers ahead in a blink before I looked up and
[Warp!]
I moved up high in the air before I used my new shoes to stand on the empty air. Looking down, I could see the terrain much more clearly.
"I really overdid with the attacks, didn't I?" I muttered awkwardly as I saw the aftereffects of the slashes that I made. They really turned the entire area upside down. Maybe I should hold them back next time?
[Warp!]
[Warp!]
[Warp!]
[Warp!]
Warping a couple of times more, I ended up reaching quite a distance before the extent of my slash finally managed to end. Though the miasma has more or less increased than before. My eyes looked at the dark dense cloud of the miasma in front of me.
[Inspect!]
[Miasma of the Dying Planet!]
[The planet was hit by the Anti-Matter, corroding its core to put it into a near death trance. The death energy mixing with the Anti-Matter created a miasma that slowly killed the planet over and over.
Total miasma left on the planet: 99%]
"All right. Let's start from here," I muttered as I scrolled through my skills before finally getting to the desired one.
[Pre Dimensional Reflection (Unique)!]
[Description: The power of the worlds is enough to change the nature of energy which one withholds. The price is enormous but the returns are too.
Effect: Change the nature of energy at the cost of your own energy!
Limitations: Cannot change a lower form of energy to a higher form!]
Using the skill, I found myself glowing rather rapidly as all the miasma began pouring towards me at a rapid speed.
'How long before I die?' I asked myself
[10 Seconds!]
And yup, I immediately turned off the skill before warping myself away from there.
There was no change in my body but according to the System, my Stats have increased by 2 each.
[Eyes of the Timekeeper (Foresight)!]
I checked the future ahead in which I used the skill again and saw myself overflowing with power. Seems like I would die because of all the extra dark energy inside me.
Now then…
[Aura Blaze!]
I used a skill that can spit out the extra converted energy out of me. One of the skills that Rhea asked to carry with me.
[Total miasma left on the planet: 99%!]
'Let's try a bit more,' I thought as I began the process again.
Since I was going to die in 10s, I should stop around 7 or 8 seconds. And then once I take the energy in, I should convert and pour it out at once. Hopefully, this will work. If not, we might need to rack our brains for something else.
[Pre Dimensional Reflection!]
10s… 9s… 8s…6s… 4s… 2s.
[Warp!]
Moving back and then…
[Aura Blaze!!]
Using all the energy at once, I attack the miasma!
The dense miasma that was covering the entire view was now becoming a bit more translucent. And using the aura blaze created a huge circular void space in between the miasma.
[Total miasma left on the planet: 99%]
'Well, seems like it's going to take more than one try,' I thought as I then began repeating the process once… twice… tens of times…
While I was doing it, I became completely lost in it as I found a definite pattern where I was able to take in miasma while also simultaneously pouring it out. It wasn't really an ideal method as I still needed to take a break after a minute or two, but it was still better than taking a break every 8 seconds.
'How long will it take to clear the entire miasma if I were to keep using the same method?' I asked the System as I looked at the never ending miasma.
[3 Days: 12 Hours: 13 Minutes: 14 Seconds!]
"It's rather fast I would say… " I mumbled, as I expected it to take at least a month, if not months. I wish I could use [Advanced Time Manipulation] but then I might end up killing myself. For now,
[Time Reduction!]
I could only reduce the time by 50%. This should be fine for now.
"All right. Let's get to work," I laughed as I began clearing the entire miasma bit by bit.
And meanwhile I was clearing the miasma, someone was watching my actions with great attention. There was a complex expression on that being's face. Rather than calling him 'he', it would be better to call him 'it' since it was a soul rather than a real being.
It was the soul of the last King of the Planet. He was the reason why the planet hasn't died yet. It was the remnant powers that were just about to run out but miraculously a certain being landed on this planet out of nowhere.
And for an unknown reason that being, Michael Aroa, was cleansing the miasma at a rapid speed. The soul could see the miasma being cleansed while its own power was increasing. Even though it was miniscule, the load of the miasma was reducing on the soul.
The planet which was supposed to die in another few decades was now seeing hope to be revived. The soul of the last King…. it wanted to do something for this unknown savior… but that is only after the work is done. Only after the planet is saved.
For now, the soul shall watch the progress of the person who could or could not be its planet's savior.
On the other side of the planet, Aisha was already teaching Irene, Caroline, and Angela how to fight against the monsters and how to use the energy present in the air. While the method was crude, the process of learning was rather fast.
Meanwhile, on another planet, Belial was also collecting powers, gaining new people under him. He could somehow sense that something big was coming apart from Michael and his own plans… something for which he should be prepared for. Or else he might lose his entire existence in this game.
Walter, who was currently following him, was also looking out for new methods to get powerful while also gaining the trust of his new 'comrades'. Though his main motive was something that was rather hidden from everyone else.
Back on Michael's planet, things were progressing rather slowly as Leeway ended up in a hitch after getting caught in the altercation between demons and the Vintages. His mind was scattered, as he was feeling rather weak right now. But he didn't know that fate had other plans for him. Things were about to turn upside down for him, too.
As for the Queen of Demons, the current ruler of Michael's planet, she still had no idea what was about to come to her. She was still trying to keep up with everything that was going on around her… trying to make sure that everything didn't fall apart.
After all… the previous Demon King… had reincarnated on the same planet where Michael was from. In this altered reality, that is…
