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. _______________

Light at the end of the tunnel

[Body transfer beginning]

[1]

[Transfer has begun, be ready for a bit of pain]

Oh, so it's only a little, huh?

[Yes, for you, for others though it is one hell of an experience and I mean that in a bad way]

They go through hell and back?

[Yes

[Since you have 'Pain Resistance' AND 'Hard Soul', the pain you will feel will be only 10% of what is should be]

Why such a big decrease in pain?

['Hard soul' is the main reason. The main source of the pain is the extreme strain which the soul experiences during the transfer, it's nothing fatal, but it is commonly used as a torture method in civilization that have a really good grasp on the soul and the like]

I don't pity the others

[Why]

Can you pity a person that you know barely anything about, the only thing I know about them is that they exist and that they are regressors, that's it.

I'm not a humanist, feelings are, 9 out of 10 times, useless to me.

[Ok]

So...

Where's the pain

[The transfer is already being done, the most likely case is that there is so little pain that you don't even acknowledge it as pain. Must be your pain tolerance]

So what the difference between tolerance and resistance

[Pain resistance refers to the ability of a person to withstand or endure painful stimuli without experiencing a significant level of pain. People with high pain resistance may be less likely to feel pain even when exposed to stimuli that would typically cause discomfort in others.]

[On the other hand, pain tolerance refers to the maximum level of pain a person can endure before reaching their pain limit or threshold. It represents the individual's ability to cope with pain psychologically and emotionally.]

[Pain tolerance can vary widely among individuals, and it is influenced by factors such as genetics, previous experiences with pain, psychological factors, and cultural upbringing.]

Oh...

Yeah..

Thanks, I totally understood everything you said.

Now summarize it in three sentences or less

[Pain resistance is how much pain someone can endure before experiencing a lot of pain. Pain Tolerance is the max level of pain you can endure. Understood everything?]

That's a lot better

[Then do you feel any discomfort?]

Yes, there is this kind of discomfort that is bordering pain, but it is at most on a level of a needle prick, so I don't even count it as pain.

[Due to your reset soul feeling such amounts of pain, your pain tolerance increased]

So that's why, for some people 'pain resistance' is more effective than others?

[Yes]

Fuck

[What?]

The discomfort transitioned into a pain level of a full power punch of a pro fighter before 'The First Mana Wave'

[Is that bearable for you?

Nope, but it is now officially painful

[Now raise the pain to the power of 20 and you get the pain the one with the lowest pain resistance and tolerance is experiencing]

That's... Kinda pathetic

[Do you know the best part about it?]

No

[The regressor chose the knock out option, so after that regressor was woken up to get his quest and memory transfer, he screamed for 1 full hour because of the pain. The system monitoring that person just got pain resistance and got his insanity resistance to G+]

Damn, that's pathetic

[I really want to reveal one thing about him, though there is a price on your side for this, though I'm sure it will be worth]

Ok, what's the price

[You can't use Death mana for 2 years]

That's almost nothing, as I can't learn anything death related without knowledge about death or death related grimoires.

Sure, I pay that price

[Price paid]

[Now I'm revealing the thing I wanted to tell you]

[The regressor is a burly man]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Fuck, this is hilarious

A burly man with a wimpy personality

Hahahahahahahahahaha

I can't stop laughing at the gap moe

[Do you want to know something else?]

Spill it

[The burly man, before he regressed, earned the 'Berserker Warrior' title]

Pft-HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

WHAT THE FUCK

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

In order to get the 'Berserker Warrior' title, you must fight in the battlefield with a shit ton of wounds and your 'pain resistance' must be below D rank and you must have enjoyed fighting in that battlefield

And you're saying that the same guy that got the 'Berserker Warrior' title can't endure this?

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

[He chose to slept through everything]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

All the guys that got the 'Berserker Warrior' title that I knew were obsessed with fighting and could endure insane amount of pain even without the 'pain resistance' at high ranks.

And then there is this burly teddy bear who somehow got that title.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

The Gap Moe, hahahahahaha

I, hahahahahaha, can't stop, hahahahahahaha, laughing at the gap moe

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA

A/N: You better stop laughing, I'm slowly approaching 1.2k words, so this charade is comming to an end.

Nah, I'm remembering this for life

HAHAHAHAHA

...

Wait

System, why did you say 'burly man'?

[Because that was how he looked before he regressed]

Oh

...

Then time to continue laughing

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Ok, enough joy, pleasure in excess is a curse, prove me wrong

['System' uses 'Uno reverse card', 'pleasure in excess is a curse, prove me wrong' has been changed to 'pleasure in excess is a blessing, prove me wrong']

If you get too used to pleasure, you get addicted to it.

If you get too used to pleasure, you don't want to do nothing but indulge in that pleasure.

If you get too used to pleasure, you get lazy.

If you get too used to pleasure, you will, 8 out of 10 times, get fat.

If you get too used to pleasure, you will lose the motivation to improve and become stagnant water.

['Uno reversed card' has proven to be super... useless due to 'Mark' using 'facts']

Ok, enough fooling around, the pain is getting extremely painful now

[Don't worry, there is less than a 10 seconds left, should I begin the count down?]

Yes, please
