Saiko begins in silence, thinking deeply. "Hmm, this is an unexpected ability. Does this mean that each chain is linked to a power? What kind of powers?" "If I can narrow down the possibilities: the first chain signifies the past, the second the present, and the last the future, based on this granted ability. Hmm..." "Hah, I can’t understand the events after this if there’s even a specific path for them to follow, haha." "Wait!!" "I forgot, it’s impossible to have no restrictions for obtaining this ability! Let’s see the restrictions: Loading..." Suddenly, Saiko returns to the abyss where he was before breaking the first chain. "What? I’ve returned?" Saiko looks around to confirm and suddenly a window appears before him. "Saiko, what is this?" "Let’s see what’s written." Usage Restrictions: To receive and use the Flashback ability, you must relive your entire life from the beginning to the present in the same way. You must complete 100% of the cycles. [Accept] [Decline] Note: Mandatory acceptance. "Hmm, this seems like an unreasonable risk, but it's an incredible ability that will help me a lot! Let’s hope we can surpass it." [Accept] Rewind initiated... Saiko then relives his life events up to this moment. After returning: "Saiko: Huff huff, what is this? It feels like I lived everything in one second, even the pain I was immune to; I can feel it! Just like before!!" "Are you telling me I’ll feel like this several times?" "I cancel the process." Note: The rewind process cannot be stopped once initiated. Transfer will occur in 1...2...3...4...5... "No! Stop!" Transfer complete / Cycles completed: 1% Thus, Saiko is automatically transferred every 5 seconds after returning and experiencing everything. After a while: Cycles completed: 28% Saiko begins losing his mind gradually, unsure if he is in the present or the past. Cycles completed: 33% Saiko: "World, why are you doing this to me?" Cycles completed: 38% Saiko: "It seems I’m starting to understand why, world." Cycles completed: 40% "It's human nature. They repeat the same mistakes every time." Cycles completed: 47% "And every time they die...." Cycles completed: 51% "Because they can’t rid themselves of their emotions." Cycles completed: 58% "But that’s what makes them weak." Cycles completed: 63% "It’s the absolute flaw of human nature." Cycles completed: 67% "They should not base their decisions on love, anger, or hatred." Cycles completed: 76% "They are foolish emotions that cloud the mind." Cycles completed: 90% "So, world, are you telling me that to achieve something, I must be willing to give up something?!" Cycles completed: 99% "It seems you’re telling me to let go of my attachment to life. That’s fine, because from this moment, I have let it go, my last thing." Cycles completed: 100% Loading complete. Flashback ability acquired. We then see Saiko lying motionless, his presence and aura changed. He looks like someone with nothing to lose. His face shows no sign of hope, and his expressions are indifferent. His eyes, when looked into, feel like staring into the abyss. Saiko speaks in a hopeless tone: "Saiko: It seems... I’m back. And I’ve acquired that ability... doesn’t matter." Saiko goes silent, but suddenly, slight traces of anger appear on his face. It seems those deep-seated emotions, which they say remain even with the death and disappearance of a person’s soul, began to surface, causing a blend in Saiko’s character. He has now become someone with nothing to lose, having let go of his life in that moment, and also a vengeful personality as a result of those deep-seated emotions. "Saiko: Now, let’s find a way out of here and start my revenge project. Let’s see which of my abilities will help me escape." "It seems everything is useless, even the black magic I recently acquired by absorbing the abyss’s darkness, but it’s still weak. So, let’s wait for it to develop by absorbing more of the abyss’s darkness." Saiko closes his eyes and waits. After a very long time... Saiko’s body appears more like a part of the abyss rather than a living human body! Suddenly, Saiko opens his eyes as if he had been in an endless slumber. "Saiko: It seems millions of years or more have passed. Let’s start getting out of here. I know I can escape, but I don’t know where I will go. Let’s review the first world flashback." [Activate] [First World Flashback: Summoning Moment] Saiko sees himself standing in a magic circle. "Saiko: It seems I’m coming to you, my first world." Saiko stops the flashback ability and starts drawing the same shape from the flashback using black magic, with some modifications, then activates it to open a dimensional gate. "Saiko: It seems this is where everything begins and ends. Goodbye, abyss." The entire abyss begins to tremble as if it understood Saiko’s words and was bidding him farewell. Then, Saiko enters the gate. Suddenly!! Saiko is transported to the highest peak above the king’s castle. "Saiko: .......I am back."
