Everyone Else Has a System - 272 Floor 100th (Present)

CURRENT TIMELINE

Floor 100th

Dungeon of Chaos

Forgotten Island

…

I entered the 100th floor with a heavy heart as I looked at the same old floating island with the temple in front of me. If all the things that had happened up until coming here hadn’t happened, I would have prepared to fight against that guy who looked and spoke exactly like me, but…

“Well, he did say that he will return my energy when I come back… I wonder if it meant this time,” I spoke out before I entered the temple again only to find that guy playing with the same purple black sword.

“Took your time, I see?” he asked with a slight smile and I nodded as I asked,”before we get to the procedure, Can I ask you something?”

I wanted to know if he knew what was going on with the floors below and probably about what exactly is this dungeon? What is the purpose of all this? And most importantly, how am I connected to all this… Who am I?

“I am sorry but I can’t answer any of your questions… I wish that I could but… I am bound by laws too,” he spoke with an apologetic face before I pondered about something and began to ask,

“Are you-

“I feel lost,” I muttered as I felt a heartache. I wanted to take a rest… I have to save the world, but I also wanted to know about myself… I… what should I do?

“It is okay. You will find your answers soon. Trust the process,”he spoke with a slight smile and I looked at him before nodding and moving towards him and asking,

“Can I have my blades?”

Though he shook his head as he smiled with a sad expression,”When you broke them, they were lost. Even time couldn’t bring them back because they aren’t bound by time or space.”

At his words, my eyes turn open wide and I looked at him with a stupefied face, but before I could speak anything

-Stab!

He stabbed me with that purple black sword. Just like last time, I still couldn’t see him coming at me. Though, unlike last time, the energy wasn’t being snatched from me, but it was being filled inside me.

“You are going to need this. The Parasites will arrive in the Netherrealm first, in about 4 months’ Netherrealm time from now on. On Planet Vermillion, they will arrive in about a year. That’s the max, I can tell. Plan carefully, make sure you don’t miss out on anything,” he said as he filled my body with so much energy…

I felt like my channels were opening at a rapid rate… my base power was rising… it was gradually increasing one level at a time…please visit panda(-)N0ve1.co)m

Until now, I had unlocked 3 mana channels, but with this… my base mana channels were unlocked up to 6, the max being 10… bringing my base power up to S4 Level on its own… though it wasn’t just that… my Spirit Power, my Death Energy Power…. Everything was lifted to a whole new level.

“With this-

“You won’t be able to survive with only this much… they are sending… a strong force… and you got two more problems to deal with as well,” he cut me off with a worry filled face as he looked at me.

“How strong?” I asked, and he shook his head as he spoke,”expect the worst.”

“What about the other two?” I asked, and he sighed really really loud at that one before speaking,”it would be better if you find out on your own.”

I looked at him confused before asking,”you are from my future, aren’t you?”

He pressed his lips as he smiled a little before speaking,”both past and future.”

I saw him taking out his sword from my chest and beginning to walk away from me,”take everything you can from Neatherrealm. You will be needing more than that… take everything from the Planet Vermillion, too. If possible, take it from ‘there’ as well.

He turned at me as he placed his sword on his back and spoke,”the journey is going to be much harder. You are going to lose a lot of people too… be prepared and… don’t lose hope… trust yourself… trust the process.”

He then slowly vanished from there as if he had never existed. I just looked blankly at him, wondering exactly what he said…

“So, was he from the future or not?” I was a bit confused as I looked around the place. Last time, I got away from here as soon as I touched the Deaths of Duality, but this time there wasn’t anything like that, so how should I escape from here?

I didn’t get the Deaths of Duality, but it wasn’t as if it was a fruitless journey… in fact, I got a power that was equally powerful.

‘Though I would have preferred Deaths of Duality more,’ I thought as I moved towards the golden gate where they were previously supposed to be.

Hoping that they would miraculously come back there again, I opened the door. However… sadly, they weren’t there. It was an empty altar with an empty centre. I sighed before moving towards the centre as I looked around to find any mechanism to get out of here.

“Hmmmm???!!!” I then felt a sudden strange energy… it was as if there was something in this place… in this altar… but exactly what? Calming myself down, I took a deep breath before concentrating on that strange feeling… that strange energy…

Slowly and slowly, I saw a few people standing on the altar stairs at a distance. They were covered with white robes from top to bottom, with not even a single body part visible.

I looked at them with a bit of confused face which later replaced with astonishment as I realised who they were.

One of them stood up, and then spoke out loud,

“Tell me O Regressor! Quid tu hic!”
