He opened his eyes, and it was completely dark. He could feel his body but it was really hard to move. It was so dark he couldn't see his own hand when he put it in front of his eyes.
"So...I am dead?" He had died too quickly to realize what was going on, but he was too stupid. He simply went into a portal that was titled 'Terror', he should have thought the situation fully and tried the easy protal or something.
He wouldn't be careless next time. He repeated the same words in his head, for some time.
"Anyway...where am I?" Michael grew confused, maybe this was a place he had to be in before he could go back in time?...no he was simply going to another timeline. he didn't know fully but he would definitely do better this time.
While he was thinking of what he would do next, he suddenly saw a bring white light appear in his distance. He turned to look towards it, but it enetered his body instantly. Then he saw another message appear in front of him.
Before he could say anything he felt himself being pulled somewhere, and he instinctively closed his eyes. The next moment he was back in his room.
"..What?" Looks like he has officially become a regressor. Two texts appeared in front of him.

Two screens were infront of him, one in blue and one in black.
'...I now have two systems.' He thought for a moment and looked at the details of his skills.
While reading he felt a change in his body, he felt it growing stronger and larger. It was probably the
After his body finished transforming he went to his room, to check how much he had grown. He looked at the mirror and he was atleast 7 feet tall. He was also curious about how his clothes got larger, but it could wait.
He looked at the 2 status screens, and he tried clicking one the Mad Regression system's (regression points). A few texts appeared in front of him.
Regression Points: Every death gives you 1 regression point. A regression point helps you awaken a skill which greatly increase the effects of a skill or ability.
'It sounds op.' That was michaels first thought. It sounded like a very op skill. And he clicked on the the skill creation skill.
Then he clicked on kill points, but it was pretty self explanatory.
Kill Points: You gain 1 point from killing.
He had 3 chances to create skills for free and thought of a few skills.
He clicked on Skill creation and a keyboard like interface appeared. He typed reality manipulation, but the thing just showed a giant red 'ERROR!!!'.
Ensure your favorite authors get the support they deserve. Read this novel on Royal Road.
"Damn it." Michael had to try making such a op skill. Sadly it didn't work.
'RIght, how early have I traveled back?' He quickly checked his phone and it as 7:30 AM. His regression should roughly be at 7: 45 ish time.
He had 15 minutes to think of a skill that could help him immediately, he didn't want to use all 3 of his free skill chances. He would just make one skill and go to that strange place and see if anymore skills were needed, till then he thought of creating the first perfect skill as a base for all other skills.
He sat on his bed and went into thought, as he wanted the first skill to be useful for vary different stratigies.
He didn't really have to think for a long time as his first thought was a body combat related skill.
He thought of the skill details and started creating a skill suitable for himself. The option for using the free creation ability or with kill points came and he chose the free option. A keybord appeared infront of him and he began typing.
{Freex3}
He clicked on create and he instantly felt change occuring in his body.
He felt hot energy spread inside him and unlike the titan transformation it didn't hurt at all, instead he felt more relaxed.
He closed his eyes to feel the change in his body. He stood still for the transformation to be completed and after the hot energy stopped, he opened his eyes. And the world wasn't the same as before.
Michael felt all of his senses enhanced to extreme levels. If he was seeing the world in 240p quality he was currently seeing it in 2k quality. Everything looked so clear, he heard a lot more, felt a lot more, sensed a lot more. Not only his 5 basic senses got enhanced. His senses like balance, time, pain and he even gained a sixth sense for everything.
He felt like he could do anything. He took a step forward and barely wasted any energy. If his body was a bucked filled with water to the brim. His body before the transformation was practically dropped half of the water in all of his movements. But now, he barely dropped even a drop.
He felt great. Not only his senses got enhanced. His brain also got enhanced he instinctively felt that he could go into a world that was slow. His reaction time also increased dramatically.
He thought of the attack that got him killed the first time, he was confident he could dodge or counter attack it this time.
Even thought it felt like only a few seconds had passed. His transformation took 13 minutes 23 seconds in total. And the other time went as he got used to it. He waited for the portal to appear and after a few more seconds it appeared and swallowed him again.
*****
He opened his eyes to be back towards the location with a path forward and unlike before he sprinted towards the path and quickly came across the portals and instead of choosing the purple portal. He chose the green portal with the medium difficulty.
*****
He opened his eyes to see a room filled with weapons. He looked through it and chose 2 gauntlets. A shield a weapon strap and a blade.
He looked at the surrounding room and instantly opened the door. He was practically speed running his life, while not thinking at all!
Or that was, what it looked like but he could think and process information alot faster. If he wanted he could see 1 second of time as 10 seconds. He felt it with his new body that it would activate during any combat-related or intense situation. He put on all his gears and opened the door.
He saw a group of goblins a few meters ahead, and instantly changed his stance and rushed at them in breakneck speed.
The goblins saw him after a few seconds but he was already infront of them with his explosive speed and strength he threw a quick jab at the closest goblin. It landed and caused great damage to its head, knocking it unconsious or dead.
The other goblins grew in fear as they had never seen a creature as big as him.
After the jab he quickly turned his body to hit another goblin with a cross, all within a second. A goblin swung its club towards him but he just weaved and hit the goblin with a uppercut to the chest knockign it down. In quick succession he did a jab, jab, cross, uppercut, and hook. Dealing great damaging to 7 of the goblins he took out the shield from his back and blocked an arrow coming towards him with a goblin with a bow. He threw the shield towards the goblin's head which made a loud sound of bones cracking, it wa salso dead.
He then quickly sprinted towards the other 2 goblins and hit them with a jab and a cross. Hitting them in the head and causing them to die instantly. After their death a portal appeared in front of him, but he didn't instantly go into the portal.
He heard the sound of notification and saw texts appear before him.
He thought 'Gaia system' and his profile opened up.

He had 40 points of body. He couldn't tell before. But the 'body' stat affected all physical components. Not only strength, speed and dexterity. He felt his stamina increase as well as his sense's getting heightened.
After getting used to the new strength in a matter of seconds. He thought of 'Mad regression system' and texts appeard in front of him again.

He clicked on skill create and 2 options for free skill creation and kill point creation came. He clicked on Kill point creation and again typed in the keyboard.
'Damn it.' Michael didn't have enough kill points to create the skill. Well, all he had to do was kill more.
While michael looked at the giant portal, he thought about the change in his mentality, he didn't feel anything different even after he had 'died' and just continued on as if nothign happened. With all this weird scenarios he was adapting too quickly. No fear, no panic, no hesitation. He didn't even feel a think when he saw the goblins, he took their lives without even thinking about it, no puking no shaking. He felt calm, too calm. He didn't know when the change started, probably at the start of all of this, but he didn't mind it. To survive and continue even after dying would require him to be crazy in the head or he was simply a sociopath. Who knows.
But he stopped thinking about it after sometime. He just had to move on, no matter the situation. He took a step forward and went into the portal, dispite, not knowing what was ahead, but it didn't matter to him. He could simply come back even after he dies.
The power of regression could be a curse or a blessing depending on the person, and it was deffinetly a blessing for him.
He closed his eyes, and opened them to see a dark forest. It was currently night time and he was ready to kill.
