Another World Awakening Transcendental Create Skill

“Chapter 63: Unusual Abilities 2”

– W-What-

Dike’s magic made every one of my muscles scream in agony.

Blood was pouring out, bones were creaking, and my wounds were re-opening.

It’s as if Shunichi was torturing me again.

His creepy smile came back to my mind.

I’m barely able to stay conscious through the pain. I can’t imagine if Dike hadn’t anesthetized me.

– AAAAAHH!!!!

The pain was making me squirm uncontrollably.

Do we really have to do this!?

– Kunnn~

Mike saw my tears and looked at Dike.

– Hold it together! We can’t treat this with normal medicine. If you want to go back to Searat in one piece you have to endure this.

Dike didn’t stop. He kept chanting “Go back” with sweat filling his forehead.

– Dike, what do you think?

– We’re about to get to the worst part. It all depends on my stamina.

He took his armor off, drank a potion, and focused all his magic on me.

– RAAAAHH!!

And then.

My body felt light as a feather.

– Ughhh… Huh?

I couldn’t tell what was going on.

– The pain… It’s gone?

The pain disappeared, my wounds were nowhere to be seen, and my teeth were back to normal. As if everything that happened had been a dream.

I could move all my limbs just fine.

– Well, I was able to rewind an hour…

After accomplishing a miracle way beyond what my potion would’ve been able to, Dike fell to the ground.

– Dike!

– Heh, thank you for tolerating the treatment. I don’t think I could’ve handled rewinding much longer.

Dike passed out.

He was smiling, probably from being glad to be helpful.

– Let’s let him rest. He really outdid himself.

– Roar, what was that? And why was he chanting “Go back”?

– It’s exactly what it seems. Dike’s magic turned back the time on your body. That’s his hidden power.

– …What!?

I was at a loss for words.

He rewound time? Is that why my wounds reopened for a moment?

How is that even possible? I know this is a different world, with skills and levels and magic just like in a game.

But, Dike? Having a power like that?

To think it’s not the leader, not the priestess, but the womanizer who has such an ability.

– Everyone’s tree paper is different. Some don’t have roots, some don’t even have a tree.

A soft voice reached my ears.

It was a voice I was happy to hear.

The Sage of the Forest made an appearance, wearing a dark green robe.

Behind her was, of course, Akane.

– Grandmast-Bwhafh!?

I couldn’t even finish my sentence before Ever asphyxiated me with a hug.

– YOU WORRIED ME, IDIOT. If it wasn’t for the talisman you would be part of a magical beast’s feces right now.

The talisman hanging from my neck started shining along with Ever’s.

– I’m sorry, Grandmaster.

– You’re not excused. You’ll have to clean my entire palace. And be my butler. You’ll be by my side at every moment of the day.

I don’t mind being her butler, but I do not want to step a foot into the haunted rooms.

– Takaya, this is yours.

Akane handed me my knife.

The blade had turned black, presumably from having to go against its master’s orders, but it’s back to pure white.

– Akane-san…

– I can’t believe you got kidnapped by bandits. I thought you were better than this.

Despite her harsh words, Akane was relieved to see me.

– Well, then.

Ever’s gaze turned to my classmates. Shunichi, who was unconscious, Akito, who was restrained by Meirir, and the rest of them gathered in a corner.

– Hey, tomboy. Yeah, you, Meirir, your turn is over. Now it’s mine. (Ever)

– TOMBOY!? Also, I’m the one who beat them. I should be-

– Meirir. (Ever)

– …?

Ever muttered in a low voice that gave everyone chills.

Even Mike flinched a bit.

It’s the first time I’ve seen Ever this angry.

– The power to fast forward time for an instant. A strong ability, but extremely easy to counter once it’s revealed. You wouldn’t be able to beat that kid.

– Tch…

Meirir left Akito and joined us.

– Meirir-san.

– Sorry, Takaya. I couldn’t take revenge.

– Don’t worry about it. You defeated Suetsugu, which is more than enough.

I had a bigger grudge with Shunichi than with Akito anyways.

The knight Dike, capable of rewinding time. The priestess Meirir, capable of advancing time.

I am forever indebted to these people.

– We lost.

Akito sighed looking at the state of affairs.

He might be strong, but now Mike and Ever are here.

There’s not a chance in this world they could win.

– Hey, you lightning moron. You’re the one who kidnapped my precious disciple, aren’t you?

– Yes.

Akito could feel the strong bloodlust coming from Ever.

The curtain falls on the story of the adventurers who just wanted to return to their world.
