Chapter 176: Oh, so this is a system?
While humanity fought back and started changing the battle's tides, Reylin and his friends stared at it with profound gazes. 𝙛𝘳𝘦e𝓌e𝗯n𝗼ѵ𝙚l.𝒄𝚘𝑚
Their emotions were complicated, but no one wanted to miss Milkyona's deed. It was their only way to return.
Reylin also couldn't explain his choice.
He just felt touched by this kind of Milkyona.
Alas, that day wouldn't just end with them gazing at the battlefield...
"So you've helped her," An unknown voice reached Reylin's party from behind.
All promptly turned around.
Laying on the tree, a young kid with white hair and a confident sneer stared at Reylin and others. His eyes mainly hovered on Reylin as he stood out the most.
That kid was small, so small as if he was just born.
However, in those eyes, Reylin saw his experience. That kid's appearance was just a cover or perhaps a flaw.
But who exactly was this white-haired guy?
Reylin replied, "Since when you've been watching?" 𝗳r𝗲𝙚w𝐞𝚋𝘯𝚘ѵ𝗲l.𝑐om
"Nearly since you've arrived in this world, a peasant from the future," the kid sneered.
All trembled and felt goosebumps from these words, including Reylin.
All grasped their weapons and prepared for any clash with this unnatural guy! Of course, they didn't dare to move without Reylin's order, and all he did was stare into the kid's eyes.
That tense mood between them was pretty annoying.
It mainly was boring for the white-haired kid, however.
He sneered, "You've shown quite tasty contempt toward that woman. Perhaps, she did hurt you in some way in the future... But, the fact that you helped her somewhat amuses me the most...
I thought you were challenging my authority... It turns out you are a feeble and weak-minded hybrid," The kid said.
"Your authority?" Reylin asked.
"Ignorance... Such ignorance... If you weren't from the future, I would've long since killed you..." The kid shook his head, then let the tree go.
He stood straight with his head arched back, "Superbia. The Sin Of Pride."
All except Reylin knelt in less than a second!
Even Crimson Dragon felt like going down, but he held in!
"Crimson Dragon is your race... Why do I feel like I've heard about it somewhere? Dragons, however... Yeah, they are prideful, aren't they? Good shit, I've erased all of them," Superbia chuckled then slowly strutted toward Reylin.
"Only worlds hold my interest now... They have enough means to challenge me... I didn't expect I would find a time traveler here, though... And the energy that sent you here! Haha! Ahahaha!" Superbia laughed out loud!
Reylin and others already understood.
Butterfly effect.
That undoubtedly would affect them in some way!
"This world's dragons are no more here... But it will hold a present for me," Superbia whispered, then lifted his hand.
Powerful and dark energy oozed out.
It was raw mana filled with pride and nothing else. That pride was so heavy that already kneeling, people dropped onto the ground with their whole bodies.
Reylin remained on his two, and he drew out his flames, "We aren't dying here!"
He had enough deaths!
His flames loudly hissed at Superbia, conveying his desire to overwhelm the sin of pride! Alas, the gap was too big.
First of all, Superbia killed the dragons in the Faynom World. He toured through the second and third layers.
That existence was someone on the part with the Nerven Race's King, The Sin Of Gluttony. All those existences were simply out of Reylin's reach because each of them had much more time to build their power.
In simpler terms, they played the game for longer.
They all shared similar bloodlines, meaning that Reylin couldn't overwhelm any of them with just his Crimson Dragon or Crown Mana.
That didn't mean he would just step back and do nothing!
Two fists collided!
"Impressive! If you only were stronger!" Superbia licked his lips as he tasted Reylin's flames with his hand.
He then spread his fingers and grasped Reylin's claw tightly, "Let me see your origin!" A memory of the future flashed in the white-haired kid's eyes.
Reylin didn't let Superbia see too much, though.
He abandoned his right arm, then spun, going for a kick with flames dancing around his whole body! His Crimson Dragon parted its jaw and let out a flamethrower as well!
To no avail!
Superbia sneered widely, then his whole body exploded with raw strength. Dark mana oozed out of every pore, then he transformed into a tall and handsome man with black eyes.
Those eyes sucked all into his hubris!
He casually extended his hand and slapped away Reylin's kick. The flames did nothing to his body, and he just blew them with his lips. At last, Superbia's hand grasped Reylin's head, and he whispered, "I just got an epic idea... If there's no one I can face, I will face myself in the future."
[Superbia's mana has permeated your system!]
[Crimson Dragon's System has started the process to dispel black mana!]
[Changnam's Divine Treasure can not endure this much power!]
[You are returning to the past!]
Reylin and others promptly returned to the past, leaving Superbia alone.
That man stared at his hand, then clenched and unfolded it a few times... Before his eyes, a system message appeared.
[Sin Of Pride System.]
"Oh, so this is a system?" Superbia whispered, then his lips curved into a sneer, "I am past, present, and the future... I must meet that man again!"
The problem was that Superbia couldn't find Earth.
That world... didn't exist yet.
Someone else would find that world by chance, though.
And due to the memory he saw, Superbia could more or less predict who it would be. His eyes turned toward the human goddess, who, in his eyes, was nothing but a pest. He sneered widely at her, then pointed his finger at her.
The smiling and happy Milkyona suddenly stopped cheering.
Hubris and pride in humanity surged within her.
Sin Of Pride's Black Mana turned her heart black, and she wasn't even aware of it. Her happiness and innocence disappeared promptly, replaced by emotions Reylin would recognize on the spot.
