"That felt pretty great."

I suppose in a sense I've given my watch to myself.

What came first, the chicken or the egg?

How Paradoxical!

I do wonder if they'll develop the organization Genesis and build a facility around my watch.

Seconds in the chaos realm can be thousands of years for other realms.

Or it can be the opposite.

Time goes both ways.

I reach into my pocket and pull out my watch.

I watch as it distorts from my movements.

I'm feeling up for an adventure.

So I go to the obsidian door that leads to Owtz's Multiverse.

I open it and step through.

This time, instead of a ruins, a village, or a town.

I find myself in the middle of a plain.

I pick a random direction and go for a little stroll.

Hopefully my plot armor is working properly.

I see a suspicious looking cave.

I walk inside and find a door.

A slot by the eyes of the door open up.

"Password?"

"I don't need a password."

I use a level 0 air spell and put sand in the mans eyes!

"Ahhh my eyes!"

I'm truly evil! Muhahahahahaa!

I attempt to open the door.

But it is stuck.

I don't have a lot of the functions of my nanites at the moment.

At least until I figure out how to get them to cross infinity.

Let's see... what would a magus do in this situation?

I infuse my mana into the metal door and warp it.

Until a hole has opened up.

The man is still busy trying to get the sand out of his eyes...

I walk past him and go deeper into the cave.

Until a knife is stabbed directly in my eye.

But nothing happens.

In fact.

More force is applied to it.

But it breaks on my eye.

Gotta love infinity.

Even the force is neutralized.

"He's a magus!"

The person that attacked my eye is still in the air.

I send out an ordinary punch.

No magic needed.

They are sent flying into the wall, leaving an indent on it.

A muscular dude not wearing a shirt walks up to me.

"You may be a magus. But you're a fool for challenging the might of the assassins guild!"

"Assassins guild?"

"You! Don't pretend you didn't know this was our secret base!"

"I had no idea, I am looking for Light Growth Academy. You wouldn't happen to have a map or something?"

"Enough talking! They call me the soul crusher."

He smashes his fist together

He then pauses waiting for my reaction.

"Ok..."

"Don't you fear true death? Severed from the cycle of reincarnation. Completely wiped out!"

"Nah... sounds cool though!"

"YOU! TAKE THIS!"

His fist hits my chest.

A loud bang resounds.

"You didn't even counterattack! You may be a magus, but your fighting is flawed!"

I'm then hit multiple times.

Even a few times in the crouch...

He moves so fast that it is actually hard for me to keep up with his movements.

But for the lols, I don't even react.

After a few minutes he has hit me thousands of times.

He then stops.

"You... my attacks also attack the soul! What are you? Who are you? When did we offend someone so powerful?!"

"I am..."

I think.

What am I?

I probably don't wanna give them my name.

Ahhh, screw it!

"I am... Zero!"

I wait for his reaction to hearing that the legend himself is in front of him.

But he doesn't react.

He then tilts his head and says

"Zero? I've never heard of you..."

I get slightly annoyed and ask for the year.

"It is the 750th year of the Greshia Kingdom."

Let's see.

I taught at the light growth academy around the 400th year of the Mortus Kingdom.

I run through the thousands of book in my echo and check history.

The mortus kingdom was founded a millenium after the greshia kingdom.

So I haven't appeared for atleast 750 years.

I haven't gone down in history yet as a genius...

That is unfortunate.

I still don't have the eyes of an original incarnation.

So although I'm able to come back to this same multiverse and even the same location.

I keep ending up in different time periods.

First it was further into the future.

Now it is in the past.

I click my tongue and walk further into the cave.

"WHAT ARE YOU DOING!"

"I'm looting, don't you guys have a vault or something?"

"As if we'd let you rob us!"

"I distracted him, get the formation ready!"

I then find that I am standing in the middle of a formation.

There are five people, forming a pentagon around me.

"Fool! Nobody can survive getting erased!"

My interest is piqued.

A blackness erupts from the center of the formation.

I'm covered in darkness.

The darkness then fizzles out.

I'm still standing there.

"You now have my interest... what did you just do?"

"No, that's impossible! No one can survive the abyss!"

I ignore the dumbfounded looks and begin to study the formation.

"Wow, these runes are entirely different then the ones I have memorized."

"Its function should be to banish the person to the abyss. No, that is wrong."

"How interesting. Not only am I abyssal. But my infinity can resist forced teleportation."

"Well this isn't exactly teleportation. You guys bring some of the nonexistence into this realm and use it to erase the person standing in the center. A very good security measure. No matter how strong someone is. They'll be turned to nothing in the nonexistence."

"You... you got all of that from merely glancing at the runes!?"

"You see... the problem is. I'm from the abyss!"

"Imp- Impossible..."

"Even if I wasn't. That darkness would never reach me. There is an infinity between me and you. You cannot cross it."

"So, be good assassins and show me the loot."

"Then I'll leave..."

They eventually decided to take me to their vault.

I became quite rich.

Platinum coins!

One of those is worth 100 gold coins.

But more importantly magic crystals!

I also tested out my storage dimension.

It seems that time is frozen in it.

I wonder if that is due to the collapsed universe?
