2023-11-07 13:17:08In the room, only Greta and Allen remained after Lecia's departure.
They both wore expressions of nonchalance, as if Lecia's presence had no bearing on them.
Greta gently assisted Allen in sitting on the bed, her concern evident as she asked, "My dear, are you alright?"
Despite her efforts to conceal it, Greta's tone of voice inadvertently betrayed her anxiety.
However, Allen simply smiled, reaching out to hold his mother's hand while offering reassurance: "Don't worry, Mom, I'll be fine."
Upon hearing this, Greta remained deeply concerned, but observing her son's unwavering determination and the noticeable improvement in his countenance, she couldn't help but nod in acknowledgement.
"Alright, you should prioritize getting ample rest for a smooth recovery, alright?" Greta's gaze softened as she lovingly caressed Allen's cheek.
Witnessing his mother's affectionate gesture, guilt intensified within Allen's heart.
"No matter what happens, I must preserve your smile, Mom," Allen silently vowed, his solemn promise resonating within him as he nodded in agreement with his mother.
"Sure!" Allen replied, his smile beaming at his mother.
Despite the happiness he felt at being reunited with his mother, it was also a bittersweet day for Allen, as he carried the weight of regret for her past demise.
"Ugh!" Suddenly, a frown creased Allen's face, a visible shift that did not go unnoticed by Greta.
"Honey! What's wrong? Did something happen?" Her voice laced with worry and urgency, she asked in a frantic manner.
Allen gazed at his mother's concerned expression, a mischievous smile quickly spreading across his face.
"It's nothing, Mom," he reassured her.
"I'm just really hungry, and I miss your cooking." He chuckled, expressing his genuine sentiment.
Hearing this, Greta let out a sigh of relief, her hand patting her big chest in a soothing manner.
"You truly had me worried, my dear~" Greta feigned anger, playfully pinching Allen's cheeks.
"Hehehe, I'm sorry, Mom," Allen chuckled, relishing the lighthearted moment with his mother.
Greta shook her head affectionately and spoke softly, "Well, if that's what my son desires, I'll prepare a special meal for you!"
Her hands clenched with determination, and her eyes sparkled as she gazed at Allen with fervor.
It had been a long time since her son had requested that she cook for him, making this moment exceptionally special.
Greta's excitement and joy surged within her like a child experiencing something new.
Observing his mother's contagious enthusiasm, Allen nodded affectionately and replied, "I can't wait for that, Mom!"
The two exchanged a heartfelt gaze, bursting into laughter together.
The warmth of the sunlight enveloping them enhanced the preciousness of their shared moment.
Greta gently brushed away the tears of joy lingering at the corners of her eyes and spoke with tenderness, "Well then, my son, hold on."
"I'll be back in half an hour!" Greta's words carried a soft, reassuring tone.
Allen nodded in agreement and replied, "In that case, I'll rest and take a nap while waiting for you."
With Greta's assistance, Allen eased himself back onto the bed, settling into a comfortable position.
As Greta exited the bedroom, her face brimming with excitement, Allen watched her close the door with a contented smile.
"Whoever it was that brought me back, I am profoundly grateful." Allen's voice resounded with a deep sense of gratitude and thankfulness.
He closed his eyes, allowing himself a moment of relaxation as his thoughts shifted towards contemplating his future.
Unexpectedly, a peculiar voice echoed within his mind.
[Ding! The system recording will be transferred to the host!]
Startled, Allen's eyes flew open, scanning his surroundings in bewilderment.
"Who's there?" He called out, but no one appeared to be present.
Pondering the situation, he considered the possibility of hallucinations, attributing them to the fact that he had been reborn.
Yet, to his surprise, the voice returned, resounding within his mind with heightened intensity.
[Activate recording!]
[0%!]
[30%!]
"Who's there? Show yourself!" Allen shouted once more, scanning his surroundings, but the voice seemed to emanate from within rather than from any external source.
[60%!]
[80%!]
[99%!]
[Ding! Success!]
[Hello, host!] the voice greeted him.
Upon hearing the voice, Allen's fear intensified, causing him to survey his surroundings with heightened vigilance.
"Who are you? Show yourself!" he demanded, his brows furrowing and his body poised for action in case of an attack.
Despite his lingering injuries, he would not hesitate to defend himself if the need arose.
[Introduce! I am the Fate Fighting System that brought you back from death!] the voice explained.
Startled, Allen realized that the voice did not seem to originate from any external source but rather echoed within his own mind!
Though taken aback initially, Allen managed to regain his composure and pose a question with a measured tone: "So, you're saying that I was reborn because of your intervention?"
[That's correct! I brought you back, but the immense energy required to rewind the timeline caused me to enter a dormant state.]
[Now, I exist as a recording, ready to explain everything to you, host!]
Upon hearing this explanation, Allen gradually lowered his guard, opting to embrace the situation and make an effort to comprehend the unfolding events.
Taking a deep breath, Allen's curiosity got the better of him as he inquired, "So, can you explain to me what exactly happened? Can you provide a detailed explanation?"
Initially, he regarded his rebirth as an unusual occurrence, suspecting that there must have been a reason behind it.
As the realization sank in that he had been brought back by the enigmatic system, Allen couldn't help but feel that there was more to the situation than met the eye.
"What is the purpose behind bringing me back?" Allen pondered, his mind racing to unravel the significance of this entity known as the system.
Sensing Allen's apprehension, the system sought to alleviate his worries.
[Do not worry, host,] the system reassured.
[I have no intention of causing you any harm whatsoever!] it declared.
[As for the precise reason behind your return, I regret that I cannot provide a detailed explanation due to restricted authority,] the system conveyed in its automated voice.
Allen, though finding it difficult to fully comprehend, nodded and resolved not to press for further information.
"No matter the specifics, I won't pry any further," he stated firmly.
"I'm genuinely grateful to you for giving me this opportunity," Allen said, expressing his heartfelt gratitude.
Knowing that without his rebirth, accepting his fate in the afterlife would have been unbearable to him.
In contemplating the choice between being reborn at a great cost or embracing the afterlife, Allen concluded that he would unhesitatingly choose rebirth.
The weight of his regrets and deep-seated resentments rendered the option of starting over indispensable in his quest for release.
Upon hearing Allen's resolute response, the system fell silent, seemingly taken aback or preoccupied with its own thoughts.
Observing the momentary pause, Allen's smile widened, piquing his curiosity even further.
"By the way, is there anything else you wish to convey?" he inquired, his curiosity unabated.
Eager to share its message, the system promptly resumed speaking.
[Now, please lend me your ears, host!] it urged, emphasizing the importance of what it was about to communicate.

Perched comfortably in his chair, Julius continued to pose the question, "Isn't this precisely what you've always longed for?" "A few months ago, didn't you request that I arrange your betrothal to that girl, Allen?" He chimed in, leaning back and crossing his arms, scrutinizing Allen, who appeared bewildered.

Allen's heart raced, and a surge of pain gripped his chest as he caught sight of a little girl who appeared to be crying. With a heavy heart, he whispered, "Irina..."

Carina hailed from the esteemed Marquis Orion family, renowned in the kingdom of Salvaria as one of the seven great kingdoms, alongside Eldoria. Sadly, the Marquis Orion family had met a tragic fate, vanishing from the Salvaria royal system amidst allegations of rebellion against the ruling Salvaria family. Deep within, Allen was well aware that the alleged rebellion of the Marquis Orion family, used by the Salvaria Royal family to tarnish their reputation, was nothing more than fabricated news.

"Why is it that you treat me with such coldness when you wake up, yet you shower that girl with such love?" Lecia's palms clenched tightly as her green eyes bore into Irina with a mix of envy and animosity, a stark contrast to her previous innocent demeanor in front of Allen.

"What is all this?" As Allen stood there, he muttered to himself, utterly perplexed by the enigmatic scene before him. Completely speechless and overwhelmed, Allen marveled at the sight before him. First, he had encountered a vast hall with towering pillars, and now this massive altar with its eight mysterious statues heightened the sense of intrigue. "I can't help but wonder about the person who created this cave and placed the hall and altar here," Allen mused to himself as he cautiously walked deeper into the altar, his admiration growing. Having been a wizard in his previous life, he had never come across anything as astonishing as this. It was evident that the creator of all this must have been truly grand and remarkable. As Allen stepped deeper into the altar, he carefully observed every detail, particularly the seven colossal statues encircling the main altar, where the exquisite crystal table stood.

Allen stood before the door, his eyes wide with disbelief and amazement. "It's incredible!" He was overwhelmed with awe, taking slow steps as he entered the room beyond. "Booms!" The door shut behind him, but he remained composed, undeterred. His attention quickly shifted ahead, revealing an immense hall with ten colossal pillars soaring towards the ceiling. He advanced slowly, his gaze carefully exploring the interior. "How could such a large and magnificent hall like this be hidden inside a cave?" Allen pondered, feeling a little perplexed. The scene before him defied all expectations, and he never imagined discovering such a vast hall concealed within a cave. "This hall is unbelievably large. Even the grandest halls in the kingdom of Eldoria can't compare," he whispered in awe, glancing around. The huge pillars, gleaming in bright white, appeared to be crafted from an exceedingly precious material. The floor appeared to be made of an unknown type of marble, leaving Allen

"Only a fool would press the [No] column!" Without hesitation, he pressed [Yes], and the panel disappeared instantly. Suddenly, a swirling white light appeared before him, entering his head. "Ugh!" Allen winced, gripping his head in pain. After a few minutes, the discomfort eased, and he closed his eyes, trying to process the incredible and intricate information about the Ancient magic pattern. "Incredible! It's truly amazing!" Allen opened his eyes, and brilliance sparkled in his red irises. He was genuinely awestruck, feeling like he had just discovered an entirely new world! "It truly lives up to its reputation as Ancient magic! This surpasses my understanding, even as a Wizard in my previous life!" He exclaimed with awe, his heart racing.

Discovering the Broken Ancient Level Magic Pattern
Allen ventured into the pitch-black depths of the cave, where no light except for a few small fireflies illuminated the surroundings. "It's really very dark," Allen silently pondered. Then he opened his palm, revealing a pearl of light emitting a brilliant blue glow, which illuminated the path ahead. "This is better." He nodded, feeling more at ease with the added light, and continued walking deeper into the cave. Along the way, he didn't encounter anything particularly special or extraordinary, only rocks and some vegetation growing on the cave's edge. "Strange, how can this cave look so ordinary, and I don't even find anything remarkable?" Allen mused, lowering his head in thought. However, he suddenly sensed something in the forward direction that caught his attention, prompting him to quicken his pace until he reached the end of the cave. Curiously, he focused the pearl of light in his hand forward and discovered a large door adorned with golden patterns on each side. "Wha
Diving Into the Lake and Finding the Mysterious Cave
"This..." Allen was at a loss for words, frozen in astonishment. He couldn't comprehend what exactly was happening in this mysterious scene, so he couldn't help but feel on guard as he continued to gaze at the lake. However, after waiting for a few minutes, nothing suspicious or monstrous emerged, and he heaved a sigh of relief. Nonetheless, this only fueled his curiosity further, and his desire to dive into the depths of the lake intensified. "It seems I must dive into this lake and discover what's hidden inside," Allen pondered, gradually descending a little closer to the surface of the calm waters. Immediately, he put his hands together and began chanting an incantation. "Water Magic: Water Protection!" Suddenly, the water in the lake lifted slightly, forming a bubble shield around him as if protecting him from all sides. Allen, seeing the bubble shield manifest, smiled slightly and then canceled his levitation magic, allowing himself to gently descend into the lake. Thanks
The Devastating Battle - Part 2
"A high-level monster, Water Dragon!" he exclaimed in disbelief. As the name suggests, water dragons are high-level monsters that typically inhabit the deep ocean, and Allen never anticipated encountering one in a mere lake. "How could a water dragon be in a lake?" He pondered, his brow furrowing in confusion. Soon, a realization struck him, and he gasped in shock as a guess formed in his mind. "Could it be that there's something inside this lake responsible for this?" Allen speculated confidently, finding no other plausible explanation. Furthermore, the lake water itself had properties akin to a highly suspicious low-level potion. Otherwise, how could a lake give birth to a water dragon? As Allen contemplated, the water dragon fixed its gaze on him and unleashed a mighty roar. "Roaaarr!" The resounding roar was followed by a sudden uprising of water from the lake, which launched an attack towards him. "Water magic?" Allen gasped in shock and swiftly invoked a dodge spell. "

Without delay, Allen quickly poured the monster's blood into his whole body. After completing this grim task, he cast an escape spell to conceal himself. "Wind Magic: Acceleration!" Instantly, his body vanished, blending into the dark night amidst the lush trees. No sooner had he hidden than the giant Grython snake suddenly slithered on the ground, its expression seeing things with hatred. "Ssshhht!" The Grython halted, scanning the surroundings with an observer's gaze. It sensed that the scent of monsters or people killing its females had come to a halt at this spot. "Shhht!" The Grython snake continued to search diligently but found no one. The surrounding scent was merely that of the usual low-level monsters. With no signs of the culprit in sight, the snake pressed forward, determined to find the one responsible for robbing the treasure and murdering its female companion. Meanwhile, Allen, holding his breath and concealing himself adeptly, peered through the gaps in the tr
