The first thing I did was take out a notepad and write,

'Find a way to take control of all the energies around'

And then place it in the hands of William.

Then I observed Alissa moving towards me one step at a time, and a few questions appeared in my mind.

'Just how did she end up being a B-Grade so fast? And also.. is she really gone? I wonder about that mind control..' I thought as a sudden cold sensation started developing in my chest.

Then I began running towards her at a rapid speed as I took out a knife, which Myla gave me before. The first thing is to make Alissa.. or whatever that thing is, to weaken.

-Slash!

I slashed her near her shoulder, trying to disarm her first and

-BOOM!!!

I kind of failed to do so, as she slapped me away without any effort.

Checking my HP

[Health Points: 99234/102000]

'2500 Points in a single swipe, huh?' I thought as I saw my HP rapidly regenerating. I guess it must be the effect of my title. My eyes then looked at Alissa for a few moments before

-Whoosh!

I jumped at her again

[Eyes of the Time Keeper (Foresight)]

I saw how she repelled me this time and, using that knowledge

-Slash!

I made a slash at her. This time.. it was a successful attempt

Though..

It just healed in an instant.

'Man.. this is getting nowhere..' I cursed under my breath before wondering if I should use any of my Unique Skills?

Though my foresight showed me something I wasn't expecting.. or more like I should have expected that.

About a dozen vines from the ground around Alissa pierced in my direction. Well, she did have 18 abilities, so I guess I should be prepared for more surprises.

I mean, I could have looked at her status screen. In fact, I did try, but each of those skills has a complicated function and with each skill having a dozen of properties and limitations, I stopped checking it after the first skill.

For the next few minutes, I tried fighting her left and right, but honestly, I didn't see any changes in our stances. We were just replaying our actions over and over without any progressive move to the fight.

'Seems like I would need another card here,' I thought as I began scrolling through my status screen and after a bit of consideration, I decided to see a particular skill of mine.

[Time Cutter (Uncommon) (Level 2)]

[Bring out the blade that cuts through each and everything. Cannot cut through beings that are immune to space and time effects, or divine beings who have ascended the realm of mortality

Cost: 450 Cronas/seconds

Skill Points required to upgrade the skill: 10]

I kind of leveled it up right now because I don't want it to be heavy in my pocket. After all, it's not like I have many Cronas in any way. Hopefully, I can utilize the dungeon soon to earn more Cronas in the future.

[Total Cronas: 514]

Sort of hurts to see how broke I am.

'Anyway,' I muttered under my breath before I decided to use another skill of mine first. A unique one this time.

[I am God(Unique)]

[Consume all your Health Points to gain invincibility for 60 seconds. Can be used once every 24 hours.

After the effect is gone. The Stats will increase by 50% for the next 3 hours or until the user gains his complete Health back.]

Since my HP regenerated at a rapid speed, getting it back to full wasn't much of a problem.

Now then..

[I am God!]

-Thud!

I fell on my knees before an intense pain started to take over me, though luckily it passed within moments before I saw something.

[Health Points: 1/600,000]

'It did quite literally take almost all of my Stat Points,' I thought as I saw it going back up at quite an insane speed. I was healing about 0.5% of health every second. And my Stats were off the chart as well.

'Probably because of this effect,' I thought as I looked at it

[Human Demi-God: All Stats Tripled Permanently.

When 100% Health: The user can use the ability [I am a Demi-God(Unique)]

When Health goes below 10%: All stats become 5 times]

In any case

-Whoosh!!

I reached Alissa and

-BOOM!!!

Punched her real hard first before I grabbed her hand and asked a particular question,

'How long till she gains back her control over her body?'

Normally it wouldn't have made sense, but something in my mind told me that there is more to it than it seems. Especially with that 'Plant-Zombie-Human' thing.

[247 Days: 14 hours: 14 minutes]

Next step was..

[Time Cutter!]

I used the sword to cut her hands, legs and some parts of non-vital organs making her..

'F*ck!' I thought as I saw that very instant regeneration of her limbs and arms and other body parts. Her Cessation Energy was down by 10% but yet still, she was back to tip-top condition within a blink of an eye.

-BOOM!!!

Then she punched me in the face, as she found her chance, though I just stood there with a baffled face as I cursed out loud,

"That was a f*king waste of 450 Cronas!"

-BOOOM!!!

I punched her again, this time much harder than before. Since my Stats were off the charts right now, it was as easy as punching a pile of paper and I kept doing it for sometime before I felt my Stats becoming less again.

[Health Points: 60,000/102000]

'I guess health reached 10% of 600,000 so the' 5 times stats' were gone,' I realized before I saw the pulp of Alissa in front of me. Even now I didn't hit most of the vital organs, and yeah, once again she returned to her prime before I could even think about everything.

Her Cessation Energy was now down to 30% though, so that was good news.historical

'Hmmm.. How long till she gains back the control of her body at the current energy level?' I asked again, wondering if there was any change in that and sure enough..

[97 days: 20 hours: 14 minutes]

It was one third of what it was before.

'It's a bit annoying but.. whatever,' I thought before I concentrated on the front and began attacking her again. Because the duration of [I am God] was still left, I didn't need to worry about my defense and only focused on my attacks. So for the next 40 seconds of what was left, I just attacked her without any care in the world.

After the time was over, my Stats went up by 50% as the Skill mentioned and, just like before, I checked her Cessation Energy.

'About 15%, huh?' I thought before looking at the full Plant Life Energy that Alissa still had. It kind of worried me that she still hadn't used even a speck of Plant Life Energy all this, but since the timer showed

[40 days: 11 hours: 12 minutes]

I decided to focus on decreasing her Cessation Energy only.

'Just don't give me any surprises later, please,' I prayed as I began attacking her again. This time, a bit more cautious than before.
