Same game as always. Reality out and reality in, just this time I seem to have arrived at the wrong time as well.
When I found Earth´s location, it had barely even formed properly, not even dinosaurs yet. Arriving at the wrong time twice in a row, I´m on a role. Bit to be fair it´s already a miracle that I arrived at the right time all other times already.
I had gotten a boost in my time travel ability last reality but that was only while traveling into the past and not the future, not to mention the future in 4 billion years.
I could instantly arrive at any point in the past but I still had to do it the old fashion, it better be worth it but from what I saw when I looked at fate, it will be.
The next few centuries, or billion of years depending how you view it, were actually rather interesting, I will see if I can experience it in person in the future but I don´t currently have time to waste billions of years.
I watched as life sprung from the primordial soup, evolved and got extinct again. It was truly fascinating to watch.
Crossing billions of years would originally taken much longer but while I was speeding up the time around me, I learned and advanced my time magic. This was probably the last time I was going to play with time because I was soon going to have a much better time power and unlike my magic it was biological, meaning it could evolve and grow passively.
Soon I arrived in the early 21th century, like really early.
I stopped my magic and just hovered above the Pacific Ocean while thinking about my next course of action.
There were several powers here that could be game changer or at least good growth material. Among them were Time-Space manipulation, Power absorption, Power fusion, adaptive muscle memory, cloning, Intuitive aptitude and many more.
The problem was Hiro, the owner of one of the most broken powers around, Time-Space Manipulation. He might be childish, inexperienced and has a hero-complex but if I don´t deal with him before he learns to control his powers, he will most certainly become a pain in the ass.
I doubt going back into the past to deal with him will be possible once he obtains his power, so I got to make this quick. I decided to first deal with him and think about any other steps later.
I didn´t know where he worked and didn´t have time to search for him, so I decided to wait for him somewhere where I knew he was going to appear after he just got his power, the Time Square.
I motionlessly stood there for months, almost a year, with a muggle repellant spell around me and concentrated on any unnatural space-time fluctuations and then it happened.
I felt space change and warp until a small Japanese man appeared. I could still feel the time-space continuum move according to his will, even if it sometimes looked like he was going to shit himself.
He took a moment to realize he wasn´t in the train anymore and had appeared exactly at the place the advertisement had shown, I used this moment to move behind him unnoticed and turn my arm into a blade.
As he was busy admiring the Time Square and what he had accomplished, I raised my arm and cut his head off. The anti muggle spell only applied to me, so people started screaming when someone suddenly lost his head, literally.
I ignored them and immediately absorbed his body. The assimilation was instant and perfect thanks to my new power. I instantly felt like sense for time and space had grown tremendously and was still going.
I could now officially declare myself as the Master of Time and Space. I now had almost complete control over it and time travels in both directions instantly, so this was a big upgrade.
Smiling at the new connection I felt with everything around me, I willed time to stop and stop it did.
Time and Space has now truly become my bitch.
I enjoyed the panicking faces of everyone around me for a while before going back to thinking about what to do next, still in a paused world.
I could swallow the whole planet again but I truly didn´t feel like it, I was in a hurry but not that much.
Guess I'm going to travel a bit again.
I wasn´t worried about powers like emphatic mimicry, power absorption or power negation but rather looked forward to meeting them. They would make great snacks.
I used my new rule over space and time and appeared in a different time line, or to be precisely 5 weeks before now and before Hiro used his power for the first time to turn back time by a second.
The reason for that is that I could feel that time to be a junction of sorts. This moment branched out into many new paths.
Two of them is either the one where the explosion happens, the one Hiro saw, or the one where NYC´s destruction is prevented, basically the plot. I appeared in the former one because I was unaffected by time and this was the original and untampered one that should have happened.
I´m just gonna call this junction 'Genesis' after the first episode.
Another reason I was going back is because in these five weeks many people with powers died and I couldn´t just let my precious powers go to waste.
I appeared somewhere in Yamato industries, where Hiro worked, and moved to his workspace according by his memories.
Time had already resumed but I wasn´t noticed because I had shifted in just another Japanese white-collar worker.
I entered the area where he and many others worked huddled together, each with their own small isolated space. I just wen to Hiro´s place undisturbed and saw him stare at a clock with a face that looked like he was shitting himself. I wasn´t followed however, I could feel time being affected by his thoughts but it was extremely minimal.
I just stood behind him unnoticed and did the whole kill and absorb process all over again, only this time I didn´t gain anything from it. I didn´t need two identically powers as the blacklight was already capable of copying and replicating genes.
Just like this I was in and out. My nearest next target was his father, Kaito, who was the CEO and possessed Probability Computation but before that I wanted to test something.
I city map from the vendor across the street in my hand and sure enough, several red dots appeared on it. It seemed like this ability from the last Reality worked here just as well, this was going to spare me a lot of time searching.
I looked at the nearest red dot. God damnit, he isn´t even in this building. You would think that a CEO would give his son at least a bit preferential treatment, even if the son was a total looser and the embodiment of a disappointment.
This time I didn´t sneak in, because I doubted just any random stranger could meet the CEO at will, and just appeared in his office.
Even thought he was looking intensely at several documents at the same time, he noticed my intrusion quickly.
He started babbling something in Japanese but I could see his hand move to a button under the desk and the other one to a drawer with a gun.
Ignoring both is actions, I just calmly walked to him while changing my hands back to claws. Seeing that I also had powers and didn´t appear as friendly, he pulled out gun and shot me several times.
I continued walking until I stood in front of him. By now, he was out of bullets and I could see the sweet look of fear in his eyes but his face looked like he was going to die with honor.
He tried one last act of struggle by punching me but I pierced his chest with my hand before his fist could even meet my face.
I could feel some slight changes but decided to get out of here before the guards barge in.
Not long after, I sat on the roof in thought. The new power made my mathematical genius unparalleled and I was now seeing the world as formulas, like in many movies with geniuses.
Looking at the many maps floating in front of me, especially the red dots, I randomly picked my next victim.
It was going to feast on the evolved humans in this country only for a small time before going to America to get a taste of the main dishes and the many special powers.
And so my feast began. In a single day I killed thousands of humans and this obviously didn´t go unnoticed. I was currently watching the news about the mass disappearance.
I absorbed my victims so there wasn´t anything left of them, making many just things about a mass kidnaping. There were even some conspiracy theories on the internet, some of them people on there were even crazier than I was but it was entertaining.
After a while I stopped watching and decided to change my hunting grounds. But I knew one thing, no matter how many powers I got here, most of them were worthless, I either already had them or they were truly useless, but that was going to change once I got the power fusion from future Tommy.
