The worst one was when he was lost in space.
Travelling the cosmos for years, not knowing where was going, was not fun at all.
He might or might not have gained a slight fear of space after the incident.
[Since the host has enjoyed as much as he wanted, it’s time he focus again on saving the world.]
“What do you mean, enjoying? I’ll tell you. Everything I did was to find a way to complete the Odyssey quest.”
He chuckled while drinking in the middle of the night.
The moonlight filtered through the open window and cast a silvery glow on the dusty wooden floor.
[Everything?]
[What about the orgy you had in the last loop? How was that useful for the Quest?]
“Ahem.”
Daniel cleared his throat.
Drunk, he looked around for an excuse and his eyes landed on the moon.
“Moon! The orgy was on the open rooftop during the night. It helped me think clearly, and I got the idea to clear the quest.”
[That is?]
“You said when the new enemy appears, mana will disappear from Earth…
“Then we just need to use the mana of the moon!”
Daniel knew it was easier said than done.
Zeus, who had gone to the moon multiple times, called the moon’s consciousness crazy.
Anyone else who met it said the same.
In the next loop, Daniel went into space and to the moon.
Unsurprisingly, they hit it off right away and became best friends.
“What do you like most in a girl?” the moon’s consciousness asked.
“Their big heart,” Daniel answered.
“Good! Me too! Hahahaha,” the moon’s consciousness laughed.
Neo didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.
Moon and Daniel were both perverts.
Their choices in girls were similar.
Thanks to their friendship, Moon agreed to help Daniel.
Daniel could now build the upgraded World Time Spell.
Immense happiness surged in his heart.
Why?
He could finally beat the shit out of Typhaon!
He had become strong enough to defeat Typhon a few loops ago.
But he didn’t do it since the Spell wasn’t complete.
After coming down to earth, Daniel beat Typhaon and immediately activated the World Time Spell.
He beat Typhon again and activated the Spell again.
He kept doing it for 46 times.
His heart was finally satisfied.
Later, the Angel descended.
Daniel had kept his expectations low, but he had been wrong.
The angel was much worse than his imagination.
It wasn’t a big, busty girl…
…
Daniel kept looping.
He continued to do stupid things for laughs.
Anything was fine; he just needed a way out of his boredom.
After 3000 years of looping, Daniel had started to grow tired.
He was losing motivation.
Even the Angel didn’t feel scary anymore.
Just when he was on the verge of dying from boredom, he got an idea.
“I should visit the Underworld.”
[What….?]
“I mean, the Angel comes from there, and the World Core is also there.
“If we want to save the world, we need to stop the Angel before it descends into the Underworld.”
His words were logical.
But Neo knew Daniel only wanted to visit the Underworld.
He was excited like a child whose favorite game, which he played 50 times, finally had an expansion.
“To the Underworld!”
[Wait, you fucking bitch.]
“Huh? Did you just curse at me?”
[System does not curse or use language inappropriate for children. Host must be imagining things.]
Daniel stared at the system screen with dubious eyes.
“I’m pretty sure you called me a bitch.”
[Host is male anatomically. It makes no sense by associating him with the female gender of dogs.]
Daniel didn’t seem to have any intention of letting go of the topic.
Neo decided to change it forcefully.
[How will host tell Kronos and others to activate the World Time Spell if he goes to the Underworld?]
[Besides, Grim Reapers follow the rules of the Underworld strictly. They might not help you even if you tell them you are there for saving the world.]
“Hmmm, you are right about that.”
Daniel decided he needed to carry the Spell himself.
He spent another 230 loops downsizing the World Time Spell.
Finally, he reduced the size to what could be drawn on his back.
The Spell, now looking like a dragon biting its tail, was etched on Daniel’s back.
[What about the energy supply, host?]
“I’ve linked Moon’s consciousness with the Spell. It will transfer the energy as soon as I ask for it.”
Daniel’s preparation was complete.
There was only one doubt.
If he killed himself and reappeared in the Underworld, would the Spell he had drawn appear on his body in the Underworld?
[Host, the Underworld gives a body to every soul that arrives in it. You will get one too.]
[Since the body is similar to the original body, the Spell will be on the back. You don’t need to worry.]
“That’s easy for you to say.”
Daniel was tired of time loops.
But he had come too far to die and give up without seeing the end of his journey.
“Also, why do you know so much about the Underworld?”
[I am the Divine System made to help you, host.]
[I’ve been installed with necessary knowledge to help you.]
“Sure, sure.”
Daniel rolled his eyes.
The System was strong, but it had flaws.
Daniel knew it was far from omniscient like it was trying to act.
‘I wonder how it knows about the Underworld. Is the System from the Underworld?’
Neo could read Daniel’s thoughts.
However, he didn’t react.
Daniel would grow distrustful if he knew the System could read his thoughts 24/7.
“Haaah, I’m doing this.”
Daniel plunged the knife into his heart.
Blood poured out of his injuries, and light left his eyes.
Dead, his corpse fell back into the church.
His soul felt a shift.
When Daniel opened his eyes, he was standing in the Underworld.
