Reincarnated and Regressed Villain - Make heroines beg for forgiveness

Chapter 64: Chapter 64 - Ryuk's Isolation (pt2)

Pointing towards only one thing: they tried to get rid of competition for heirs using outside variables.

Instead of conducting a competition inside Ardoros, they used the outside world as the ground to provide facilities for the competitors to kill each other indirectly.

'What is my body condition?' Right now, knowing about the present state of my physical body was utmost concern.

[Scanning.....]

[Host, your Ether Core is completely damaged.]

[There is no presence of Devereaux Bloodline inside your body.]

[Your strength and energy stats have fallen below Phase I.]

[There are several internal injuries, 89% of organs are severely damaged.]

[Host, I can't detect a heart inside your body; it seems to be burst.]

One after another, several voices bombarded that once-empty space, while each word was picked by me, a doubt arose hearing something incomprehensible.

My heart was destroyed, yet I was alive. How?

'Why am I still alive?' If I can talk to System, then it means I was not dead.

But among all the details, only this thing seemed confusing, and even though I get to know about the cause of my present state.

[Host, Your paternal race seemed to provide you with partial immortality, prompting you to survive even without a heart.]

'!?'

'System, what race does he belonged to?' Somehow my priorities were changing rapidly; earlier, I just wanted to know details about the cause of my death, and then about the reason for my survival, and now this.

[Host, Accessing that information will alert World's Will, leading to fatal consequences.]

'Leave it.' Right now, my own survival was on a thin thread, and I will definitely not want any other variable to occur.

'How much time has passed?' Though I knew it was some hours, knowing the exact time was necessary.

[Host, It's already a year since you went into this state.]

'!?'

How is this possible?

I still felt like just a few hours went by. Don't tell me, what about the outside world.

'System, where am I?'

'What happened to Mother?'

'Is Heindal safe?'

Several questions surfaced in my mind. The amount of time passed while I was in a coma was not something I could afford.

[Host, right now you are in the Ardoros Continent.]

[Lady Alisia is present within a 20-meter radius. Her energy core seemed to be replaced with an artificial one, prompting her to reach Zenith Rank.]

[After your state, I fell into hibernation to preserve the remaining bit of life. In doing so, I lost contact with Heindal.]

'She seems fine.' Hearing about Mother lightened one of my concerns, but now the question remained: what am I doing inside Ardoros?

I can't inquire about Heindal now that, according to the system, it can check or surveil people whom I had ever been in contact with. Meaning now that it got hibernated, it seemed to re-register all those pieces of information.

Let's put Heindal for another time.

Right now, my priority should be to heal my body, instead of caring about the outside world.

'System, tell me exactly what the situation is around my body.' I can't command the system to heal me while people will be observing me, indirectly causing me to reveal my hand to them.

[Host, right now, you are inside a chamber filled with a liquid that has healing properties.]

[Scanning...]

[Constitution of unknown fluid detected:

- Essence of Unicorn Tears: 25%

- Phoenix Feather Extract: 20%

- Dragon Scale Powder: 30%

- Starlight Essence: 24.5%

- Arcane Poison: 0.5%

]

[Scanning surrounding outside the chamber...]

[Only one person is present outside the chamber:

Identity - Alisia Devereaux ]

'Mother.' It was not unexpected, since her child is floating inside some packed chamber with a tattered body.

Hearing all things from the system, I understood one thing about this place.

I am surrounded by enemies.

The fact that there was Arcane Poison inside the constitution of the healing fluid only pointed towards the true intentions of the people outside this room.

'Heal me, System.'

[HEALING INITIATED!]

[Ether Core is completely repaired.]

[Devereaux Bloodline - Can synthesize one from previous samples. Host body will accept it due to having the same origin - INITIATING]

[ERROR... ERROR... ACCESS DENIED]

'No need for you to repair that bloodline. Leave it.' Interrupting the system in the middle was only due to the drawback that the bloodline had.

My enemies are not outsiders but my own bloodline.

There is no need to carry something which could self-destruct the moment it hits a criterion.

Since most of the area on my sword is going to be drenched in Devereaux Bloodline soon.

'Repair my energy level. You can use the Conduit's energy to supplement for energy lossed.' I commanded to heal my energy core since now I can easily give access and also prevent the system whenever needed.

[HEALING ENERGY CORE - DONE!]

[Using Conduit's energy to fulfill energy losses]

[Level Rising: Phase I --? Phase II --»?EPIC? IMPERFECT]

[To reach perfect state, physical body healing is suggested.]

'Not now.' Right now, knowing that my present state will keep others in the shadows, not making them take more dangerous steps, I postponed it.

But, in truth.

Instead of the outside world, my instincts were telling me that this space was more profitable for me.

I could understand the reason for that feeling; it was *Shunya*.

Even right now, Arcane Poison was not infiltrating my body due to this ability, which seemed to nullify it while also preserving my consciousness in this dark world.

What if I could bring this power outside my body?

It was just a hypothetical assumption, but something which can even prevent the system, then if used as some zone around my body, then...

Several speculations were going inside my mind. Somehow falling into this state didn't seem to me as a regrettable moment; instead, I saw it as an opportunity.

I knew time was moving faster in this space than the outside world, but it was also true that here, I could vividly communicate and even feel the presence of *Shunya*.

I was sure mastering it after awakening would only become harder. Maybe I could never even master it while using my physical body.

So, until I master it, which seems to take a few more hours inside this world and outside it will be a few more years.

I needed to be patient.

Several things will change outside, but I need to take some precautions for upcoming future.

'System, order two of the Maya to keep track of all the Flagbearers who will leave this continent in two years and command the other two to start preparing a list of those who harbor ill intentions towards me.'

As a precaution against something like this, I had used the Enslavement Grimoire on four of the Maya who infiltrated the Heindal a year ago, just to keep them on hold only to use in such kind of situation.

Within two years from now on, the Flagbearer battle will commence, which was predetermined to happen when I will be fifteen years old, if I go with the information I have.

I can't participate in it, at that time.

I don't know how much time it will take for me to master this skill.

But, One thing was sure, I will kill each one of them.
