[Ti Remaining: 11 hours, 58 minutes]
[Ti Remaining: 11 hours, 56 minu….]
[Ti Remaining: 11 hours….]
[Ti Remaining: 10 ho….]
[Ti Remaining: 6 ho….]
[Ti Remaining: 4….]
[Ti….]
[….]
[Ti Remaining: 00 hours, 00 minutes]
[12 hours have passed since your Death]
[You will be forcefully revived.]
A surge of power burst forth from Neo's Seed of Existence.
It enveloped the Seed of Existence, and the Seed of Existence started to regrow.
Then, his soul materialized, like pieces of shattered glass being glued back together.
Bones appeared, followed by organs, muscles, nerves, and finally, skin and hair.
Neo gasped.
He looked at his arms in surprise.
"That fucking worked?"
This was the main reason he had chosen the Eternal Skill.
However, he wasn't sure it would work, and he had never tried it due to the dangers associated with it.
'How?'
The voice of the Angel entered Neo's ears.
'How are you alive?'
It commanded its maggots to eat him.
Neo didn't wait for them to attack and fought back.
Being surrounded by maggots, he was eaten quickly without being able to put up proper resistance.
However, the sa situation repeated.
Eternal saved his Seed of Existence from being destroyed.
And….
[Ti Remaining: 00 hours, 00 minutes]
[12 hours have passed since your Death]
[You will be forcefully revived.]
'How are you alive!?'
The sea of maggots attacked him as soon as he was revived.
Unlike last ti, he quickly got into a stance.
But there wasn't much he could do.
[Ti Remaining: 00 hours, 00 minutes]
[12 hours have passed since your Death]
[You will be forcefully revived.]
As soon as he was revived, he activated the Shadow Movent Spell and moved towards the north pole.
His goal wasn't to fight the Angel.
It was to activate the World-Ti Spell.
The maggots caught up to him and tore his body apart.
[Ti Remaining: 00 hours, 00 minutes]
[12 hours have passed since your Death]
[You will be forcefully revived.]
He commanded Beelzebub to devour the maggots' ti.
The caterpillar was revived together with him.
He started to suck ti from the monsters.
However, no matter how much ti he devoured, it didn't seem like it was having any effect.
'Dammit, how old are these things?' Neo cursed under his breath as a giant maggot crushed him.
[Ti Remaining: 00 hours, 00 minutes]
[12 hours have passed since your Death]
[You will be forcefully revived.]
[Ti Remaining: 00 hours, 00 minutes]
[12 hours have passed since your Death]
[You will be forcefully revived.]
The situation repeated again.
And again.
And again.
The Angel started to get irritated.
No matter how much it attacked, Neo was revived, and he kept moving towards the north pole.
And…
He was getting stronger.
Each death of his strengthened the Death surrounding him.
[Ti Remaining: 00 hours, 00 minutes]
[12 hours have passed since your Death]
[You will be forcefully revived.]
[Error! You do not have stacks left for Immortal.]
The skill failed to activate.
It didn't matter.
Eternal still worked, and it kept his Seed of Existence from being wiped out.
Once it was midnight, the Immortal skill gained a new stack.
Then…
[12 hours have passed since your Death]
[You will be forcefully revived.]
He was revived again.
'Just die!'
The wall of maggots crashed on top of him.
Neo, however, having experienced it ti and again, moved out of its path.
He dodged the maggots.
The process of dying, reviving, and taking a small step towards the north pole continued for an unknown amount of ti.
Neo didn't give up.
He refused to give up.
Every ti he was revived, he instantly moved toward the north pole.
Even though he was killed quickly.
Even though the progress he made each ti was small.
He kept moving forward.
Step by step.
Unrelentingly.
But one day, he received another ssage:
[100% of the population has died.]
[Quest 'Be the last human alive' completed.]
[Reward: Level up {Eternal} x 1, Whisper of Ti x1]
A powerful blow struck Neo.
He flew back, his body bouncing off the snow.
After he ca to a stop, he didn't stand back imdiately to dodge the maggots.
[Would you like to use Whisper of Ti?]
[Tip: Whisper of Ti can leave behind a {Voice of Ti}.]
Neo recalled the monts when he had been close to dying from Ti Deaths while awakening his Ti elent.
Back then, he had started to hear voices of ti as he ca close to dying from Unrembrance and Ti Slipping.
'I can leave behind a Voice of Ti like that?'
'But won't only those who are about to die from Ti Deaths hear the voice I leave behind? Even then, it depends on my luck if they can hear it or not.'
Still, Neo used the Whisper of Ti.
There was no guarantee the World-Ti Spell would activate.
He didn't have the energy to activate it either.
The Voice of Ti, although a gamble, could help him send a ssage to the past, present, and future.
It could turn around the current situation.
[{Whisper of Ti} x 1 has been activated.]
[Please leave your ssage.]
Information flowed into Neo's head, informing him of the length of the ssage he could leave behind.
"I'm Neo Hargraves, who interfered with the past for my own gains. Due to my actions, the past changed, and it caused the world to be destroyed. If you want to save the world, protect the Child of Mana from Typhon."
His breath left white mist in the cold air.
"Please."
[{Whisper of Ti} x 1 has been used.]
Neo kept staring at the sky.
Nothing changed.
As the maggots ate his body, only a single sentence left his lips.
"Looks like no one got the ssage, or they failed to change the past."
Instead of falling into despair, Neo started to move again.
The Aura of Death and Darkness exploded out from his body, throwing back the maggots.
He used Obitus as a crutch to stand.
As he fought the maggots while moving northward, the screen flashed before his eyes again.
[Would you like to use {Eternal} Level up x 1 card?]
"Yes."
[Eternal, Grade 2 Mythic]
[Progress: 100%]
A powerful aura exploded from Neo's body.
His body started to evolve.
He didn't stop to ditate or focus on his breakthrough.
His actions caused his Divine Energy to go wild during the breakthrough and destroy his body.
The energy raged unchecked, shattering his bones and rupturing his veins.
His body was destroyed repeatedly.
However, he regenerated it again and again using the third stage of his blessing.
He looked like a monster, red lightning and black muscles swirling around him as his muscles and body broke and continuously healed while he fought the sea of maggots.
[Eternal, Grade 1 Mythic]
[Progress: 100%]
After the trait was upgraded, the screen appeared before his eyes.
He was surprised to see his trait's progress had carried over.
'It must be because I used the system to upgrade the trait and because the trait was about to evolve anyti now.'
[Unique Skill Eternal has been mastered.]
[Three Unique Skill evolutions have been unlocked.]
