First Issue

Ahh that's the end. Nothing happened again after that, only some fun with that mid girl and some minor moral code violations. Well it's something I created myself so doesn't matter.

*slurpp*

Ahh never disappoint indeed, the coffees here are the best.

...

There was.. a threatening time too...

So as I said, it's not just me that have this power, and of course, the power others have would also be unique.

Anyways, so there was this guy, that's so gloomy, yeah I'm just gonna mention everyone with their characteristics only. Also, this happened right after that incident with the girl... ugh I know right, things weren't very good back then, so many problems.

As you know, normal day, normal school, I came to school and went to my class. Readying for the first subject and then suddenly someone charged at me like a bull. That guy had a long straight hair, panda eyes but he seemed excited. Of course, I was prepared! So I set up the usual defense skill, back, so that he would just got reversed to where he was... yep, something unexpected happened.

He went through it!

So yeah he tackled me and beat me with his bare fist. I kept trying to activate my skill but it's no use.. the skill that was like my own limb just suddenly felt like it's gone. It was also early in the morning so my class was empty. There was noone that could help me. This kid also packed a punch even with his look, well now that I think about it, he may have been a martial artist

I panicked so much that I started tearing up.

Then of course in such a dire situation, my slave comes!!

Ooh she looked like an angel for a moment.

For a moment.

As expected, her charming skill can't do anything and the people that she controlled sobered up once they were a certain range from me and that guy that's still pummeling me while on top of me.

I could only accept it all as I didn't learn any martial arts or self defense. My vision started blurring away.

Right when I was about to become unconscious, I felt the power that I lost came back to me. So I instantly put up a back zone... yeah this is what's I'm gonna be calling it from now on.

He then reversed to 10 seconds in the past...

I should've known..

The extent of my power.

His fists went back the same motion, although the power was reduced because it's backward, it was still all falling into my face.

My already blurry vision couldn't hold out and so, I blanked out.

What happened then?

I woke up in a small room. It looks like an empty studio sized apartment where I was seated in the middle of it, tied up. There was only a single lamp above me that's lighting up the whole room.

It was kind of interesting to be honest. So I kinda let it be without turning back time. Just wanna know what all this was about.

A woman entered. She was a beauty. Rated her 8 out of 10.

Minus 2 cause them rounds too flat.

She noticed my gaze though, and her expression darkened, but then she tried to brighten it up.

"You must be wondering why you're here right?"

"..."

"You should know your position here and behave accordingly, we know all about you"

"Be quick or I'm finna head out"

Her face became uglier because of what I said.

Ah damn this board was pissing me out. I take it back I rate her 5 out of 10.

Seemed riled up, she then tried to slap me, but of course I had the Back zone skill around me so her hand just reversed back to where it was 10 seconds ago.

"Idk who y'all are and why kidnap me, but I got no time for third rate villains nor idiots. I'm out"

As I said that, I used return.

And I was back to my home. I... got mixed feelings. You know, I was threatened by that martial arts guy and then it turns out the place that was supposed to be his base was that easily escaped from. This presumption felt right because even superhuman like me got an ominous feeling.

Anyways, that night I pondered about what had happened. That was the first time I got scared of something. It was something that could kill me! It could seal my power. I can't go back to when I was a good for nothing, I won't let go of this power. This power that I got through sheer luck.

That was the turning point for me. I mean I got all the time in the world to learn every martial arts there is although not enough protection to train my body.. also a little lack of motivation. That's manageable of course, this involved my convenient life afterall.

I named it the Mastery project.

It's a simple plan though, I will just search the techniques online and learn from the most effective in self defense first.

It's basically learning but with my body.

Ah I forgot to mention huh, Eternal Core, this passive skill, I've never detailedly explain what the Eternal really does. So yeah it makes my body immortal. Even now I still have the body of a 15 years old. But there's another benefit Eternal gave. Hmm, I don't really know how to explain it. It just appeared inside my head when I awakened. But I will just make it understandable.

My body feeds on time. The more time I reversed the more it eats on it, however the consumption doesn't really have any effect. Only if I return 100 years worth of time would there be an apparent effect with this body, such as growing. But, this whole time consuming thing wasn't meant for that. I mean it is but for the long run. For an effective use, it's used as a regeneration. So all this time I wasn't resetting myself, but healing it. This also comes with a disadvantage, which is vulnerable to long term damage such as poison or curse. I had met a user of each but that's another time's story.

Anyways, at that time my physique works to my advantage as my body training wouldn't be in vain.

Well it took 1 month in real time and 5 years in my time. Not that I devoted all of it to training afterall. I think 3 years of it were used for other things. At that time I also "requested" that charmer girl to put some of her strongest people to guard me in case that puncher lunatic try to do something.

One more thing I should mention about my power is that it couldn't go back to the time before my power awakened.

Also I don't like repeating something I've already done.

Such as... taming that succubus.

Anyways, did I say that I only have 3 skill? Ah better not talk about it, it's gonna be a spoiler afterall, hahaha.

Let's get back to where we were.

In that looping time I learnt judo, boxing, wrestling, muay thai, and karate techniques. I didn't master them, just enough for me to defend myself then activate my power.

I learnt all that in my house. Of course I also trained my proficiency of both my skills.

It was finally time, for revenge.

....

Might as well bring that bitch for extra manpower
