A Second Chance in Time

Hi, I’m Mark and while I’m not the strongest and neither do I have any unique ability, most of my opportunities being either wasted or given away one way or another, I’m the one that survived the most. Now that I think about it, this life is pretty miserable. I got my ups and downs, but because I rushed at the beginning, I ruined my entire future and the only thing keeping me alive is my ability to adapt and survive. That’s it. No magical abilities. No genius talent. The most unique ability I had was an ability the “survivor” title gave me called “The survivor”. Oh, look, I'm about to be killed aaaaand I'm dead. ... . . Die, they said, you will receive eternal rest they said, but where is the eternal rest?! “Hello and welcome to the Regression and Reincarnation agency. Due to your peculiar achievements, you have been fo- ahem, given the chance to go back in time, as well as three wishes.” –––––––––––––––––– Follow Mark on his journey to change his ending, see his rises and falls and journey with him together in this story through your imagination. ______________________ This is my first book and my native language isn't English, so expect grammar mistakes and so on. You will find no harem in here because webnovel is filled with harem stories and second, I'm absolutely tired and bored of reading harem stories, so I'm making a book myself. Same for swords, they are everywhere, so they got boeing quickly, so MC will NOT be wielding a sword. The closest thing to sword you'll get is a knife. Either way, enjoy my book and if you don't like it, just stop reading, no need to write comments or reviews about how, from your perspective, the story is. _______________

Item and plans

[Congratulations, you have rolled the 'your mom']

Yay, hi mom, how are you.

[Oh honey, you don't need to stress, I have been just fine without you]

What did I really roll

[An axe named 'Emberfang']

Ok, what's the description

[Item: Emberfang

Grade: Uncommon

Description: An axe that was forged in a fiery region using the spirits of a spirit, the creator of this axe imbued it with both the ability to do darkness and fire damage.

This axe has some untapped potential, though most of it is already drawn out. It's jagged edge of the axe makes it a very suitable weapon to wound your enemies for a long time, though thanks to the enchantments the axe possess, it's edge can be transformed into one that is suitable for hunting.

Oh, and don't worry about using it as a projectile as you can automatically feel it's location within 100 meter distance of you and it can come back to you on command within 4 meters.

Enchantments: 'Recall', 'Clean edge', 'self-repair', 'Fiery edge', 'Corroding edge', 'tell location', 'owner bind', +10 strength, +10 defense

Durability: 230/230

Base attack damage: 35000

Requirements: 180 str, 130 agi, 155 end, 100 mgc]

A/N: Feel free to upload an image, I probably won't, though I might check out the images uploaded, but this will take a while to happen

[The only minus is that you don't meet 4/4 of the requirements.]

You don't need to make it sound so obvious, though with my plans, this is achievable at G rank

[It might be, but it probably, may or may not, include body training or refining skills]

*Gasp* How did you know?

[You have hidden it quite well, but the 'achievable at G rank' definitely gave it away, though it totally took all of my computing prowess to figure this out]

At least you actually put in effort

[Yeah, it was really difficult]

Now that we played with irony enough, I need to give a question

[What is it?]

Can I get traits

[Yes]

How?

[By quests or the manual way]

Can't I buy it?

[You can buy the knowledge about traits, but not how to get them or the traits themselves]

Ok

Well, this puts me in an awkward spot it seems.

[Why?]

I need the 'Multiple cores', 'Prodigy', 'Dense Muscles', 'superhuman skeleton', 'Hard skin', 'Worm', 'Steel Will', 'Impossible reflexes', 'Fearless', 'Night resistance', 'Battle Foresight', 'Water-breather', 'Fast adaptation', 'Astral Body', 'Irrational resistance', 'No presence' or it's variations, 'Iron grip', 'Poison body', 'Dulled nerves', 'Bloodhound's nose', 'Eagle Eye', 'Mole's touch', 'Bat's ears', 'Durable body', 'Resistant body', 'Your mom'

[Where do I get 'your mom'?]

An excellent question, near my arms

[Then you already have the trait]

No, the 'your mom' trait was a joke, as is your existence.

[So you just put it because you wished to make a couple of jokes]

Why not

[Ok, taking a better look I see that you wish to get the 'immortal body' trait]

Yes

[A good decision and just at the right time]

Why

[An order came from the HQ, we must give you a quest with your request as the reward, there is no limit for what can be the reward, though don't push your limits, because if you wish for something like divinity, you might as well get a nigh-impossible quest.]

[Though you can use the achievements you accumulated to reduce your quest difficulty by up to 10%]

A/N: Achievements are things that you did that can be considered an achievement amongst the normal people. As the regressors are getting an unfair advantage, their achievement points? get a 50% reduction and after the 'First Mana Wave' the reduction is 5%.

It's complicated to sort out the achievement point? system so I will give info about achievements once I'm finish the achievement system in the info dump chapter, A/N ends

I mean the real reason

[Gods]

Oh

Yeah, that's totally understandable

Gods have cameras that give them the ability to view Earth and spectate the events happening on Earth.

There are restrictions like not going able to go to places that no superhuman hasn't been to, so that the gods wouldn't tell their blessed the information they got, but the limits ended just about there.

I hope Anar'aya contacts me somehow, it would be awkward if somebody figured out that I have the blessing of Anar'aya and she didn't even contact me once

[Don't stress about that, gods aren't allowed to intervene till all the regressors reach G rank or till the 'First Mana Wave'. Though because of the gods, there is a ranking system in which the regressors are ranked.]

[The score is your titles * your skills * your stat average. You are currently in third place, there is one regressor who bought a shit ton of skills, so now, in terms of quality amongst the lowest, but in terms of quantity the first.]

[The second place has a lot of titles, because he utilized his knowledge of title to get a lot of them from the start, though none of them have 'The First' inside them.] [

Since you are regressors, you received certain limits to prevent becoming too powerful and stealing too many chances, so unless you get a title that wasn't received at all in this or past life, you won't get a 'The first' title]

[If any of the regressors ask question why somebody is in what ranking, they will receive the answer to why they are in that place. They won't get anything else as this is under the request of the gods.]

[They fear that if the regressors are allowed to team up or get the full access to the system, they will ruin the entertainment, so they put a bunch of restrictions on the regressor.]

[You have only received me temporarily, until 'The First Mana Wave' since I have to make sure you don't do something stupid or harmful that might work after 'The First Mana Wave', but won't work before it.]

Give an example

[Casting a spell or using a skill above E- rank, doing mass manipulation on regular humans, terrorism]

I understand the rest, but why are skills and spells above E- rank prohibited, too strong and Earth doesn't have enough mana to support such spells, thus Earth will react violently, trust me on this one, it ain't pretty]

Ok, now shut up and let me think on what rewards should I ask for

[Understood]

Then first, I want 10 gold coins, I will need them

...

Then I want knowledge AND skills variation of 'Gathering', 'Foraging', 'Butchering', 'Skinning', 'Sewing', 'Forging', 'Tailoring', 'Basic rune' and 'Basic enchanting' at F- rank as well as the traits I listed before.

[With the skill difficulty reduction, the difficulty of the quest is just barely SSS rank.]

[Don't worry too much, the quest difficulty can be considered between SS and SSS, the HQ messaged me to make it SSS, either way, if not for the quest difficulty reduction, it would be an Ex rank.]

Thank you, almighty HQ

[The thanks has been sent]

Ok, then let's make it a pure SSS rank and add 'skill upgrade' tokens, a total of 10.

[Yep, now it's a SSS rank, though on the weaker rank]

Now system..

Generate the quest!!

[Understood]

[..generating the quest...]
