Chapter 222 [Regression]
[The overall results of the scenario have been calculated!]
[Because of the presence of the Blessing (Blessing of the One) You have been granted access to all the options]
[Your (Blessing: The One) has been automatically selected as one of the Two blessings you may carry!]
[Choose one of the Other Blessings!
(1) Blessing of the World: After the death of the Last Ethereals, you are the first being that has taken its step to become an Ethereal. Energy will never be a problem for you.
(2) Blessing of the Gaia's Spirit: When around a plant or vegetation, the energy restoration increases by 50%
(3) Blessing of the Charybdis: You have gained the ability to see or hear things that are otherwise not possible]
I looked at the message of the System as the very world around me turned gray. My eyes confused, I observed the whole thing with a dumbfounded face, as I couldn't believe what was going on.
[You have selected the Blessing: Blessing of the World!]
I did not choose it.. but perhaps because the System knew the Blessing that I wanted, so it chose by itself.
[Your Race: Ethereal has been integrated as a part of your Regression!]
[Your Class: Child of the Universe has been fixed as a part of your Regression!]
[Your Class has been locked till you Reach Level: 10]
[All Enchantments have been removed!]
[A random title is being selected from all the Titles you possess!]
[Chosen Title: Gaia's Savior]
[Choose a Skill that you want to be unlocked from the start!]
A multitude of options appeared in front of me as I observed the system screen. Though more or less, I could make out what was going on..
'So it is really like that, huh?' I thought as a sad expression formed on my face. I wish it could have been different, but.. sigh..
[You have chosen the Skill: Time Rejection!]
[Time Rejection]
[The user can react to anything and their surroundings, even if it is too early or too late to react to them, possibly even causing later events to happen sooner or undo some past actions and events. For example, catching a ball even if it is too early, or dodging a bullet even if they have already been hit.
Limitations: Depends upon the mental fortitude of the user.
Cost: 0 TP]
[A Random skill will be selected that will contain all its properties after it is unlocked!]
[Skill: Second Space has been selected to remain intact even after regression! You will receive the current version (Unique Lvl 1) of the given skill when you reach the required level to unlock it!]
[All God Powers Remain Unlocked!]
[All Ethereal Powers Remain Unlocked!]
[Please take the path for your first regression!]
[Continue Without Regression and take all your powers with you (Not recommended)!
Chances of dying after choosing this option: 100%
Chances of reaching Level 40: 0%
Reason: A powerful hostile entity is present around the User. The User won't be able to survive against him even for a second. Immediate death is guaranteed with a miniscule chance of Eternal suffering.]historical
[Regress back to the point where you achieved the System!
Chances of dying after choosing this option: 50%
Chances of reaching Level 40: 10%
Reason: Gives a better outlook of the area around with the knowledge of the Future. Gives the user a chance to undo the things in a better fashion and collect people to fight against the future enemies. ]
[Regress back 1 year (Most Recommended)!
Chances of dying after choosing this option: 20%
Chances of Reaching Level 40: 20%
Reason: While the root problem occurred a few years ago, the User still has a higher chance of reaching Level 40 if done in a proper fashion. Gives the user enough time and energy for another regression back to where it started.]
[Regress back 2 years (Not recommended)!
Chances of dying after choosing this option: 100%
Chances of Reaching Level 40: 0%
Reason: Will consume the user's own life force to send him back farther. The user does not possess enough energy to be sent back enough. Even if the User manages to reach back, his body will deteriorate at an alarming speed.]
[Regress back 3 years (Not recommended)!
Chances of dying after choosing this option: 100%
Chances of Reaching Level 40: 0%
Reason: Will consume the user's own life force to send him back farther. The user does not possess enough energy to be sent back enough. Even if the User manages to reach back, his body will deteriorate at an alarming speed.]
The rest of the options weren't available and while it did give me momentary happiness that I can continue without regressing, the fact that I will die immediately by that entity in the shadows gave me chills deep down my bones.
I didn't doubt the System when it said that I will die within moments if I don't regress, but it made me question how someone like that appeared out of nowhere? Was it determined by fate or something?
'Man! I should have spent more time with Caroline and the others.. and Rhea.. she knew, didn't she? She better be prepared to hear a lot from me,'I thought as I sighed before choosing to regress a year from now.
'Hmmm.. doesn't that happen before the Apocalypse occurs? It was around the time when I got HIV'd too.. maybe I can have some fun,' I thought as I consoled myself a little.
'This is overwhelming,' I sighed as I saw another message appear in front of me.
[Because you possess the [Blessing: Blessing of the One] all the options are opened in front of you!]
[Please choose three of the following options for your first regression!]
[5 random companions who have the memory of the past!]
[2 of the random Weapons that you have on you will be carried with you!]
[Gain the ability to use the [Shop] even without using the [Second Space]!]
[Gain the Ability to Venture into Dungeons even without Keys!]
[All your stats at 25!]

[+50 Stat Points!]
[+3 Skill Evolution Points!]
[Carry your Special Skills: Skill Fusion and Copy!]
[+1 More Skill of Your choice!]
[+1 Blessing to Carry!]
[+1 Enchantment Unlocked of your choice!]
[+ Aura of the Time Maker!]
With so many options unblocked, I couldn't help but thank Aether for giving me this blessing.. really. If this is what the options were, I could only think what options could have been hidden from me.
'Okay.. let's see,' I began looking through the options I had and after going through all that.. I pondered about my end goal after regression.
"I have to reach Level 40.. if there are really 1000 Levels.. I should keep my priority to reach a higher level. I must be able to stand that black entity,"I muttered as I took a peek at that being again that continuously kept sending chills over and over.
[You have Chosen the Following Options!]
[Carry your Special Skills: Skill Fusion and Copy!]
[+1 More Skill of Your choice(Space Time Map(Unique))!]
[5 random companions who have the memory of the past!]
'I hope the random companions include at least one of the closest people, I know,' I thought as I then began planning a little more while the System messages kept on ringing in my brain. It wasn't really a hard decision given how I believed the system worked. If I did things right, I might even reach level 40 faster than I reached level 20.
[Your choices have been finalized! Good luck with your regression!]
