Climbing the Tower to Be a God With 10x Gacha System

"So let's begin James, the moment I slow down time, focus on me, set up scenarios in your mind, and understand how to adapt time to you, it's not about the views I have shown you before, it's about your gain and how to use your attention. You have to embrace time itself."

Chronos' words put James under pressure even if he didn't want to, they had limited time, even if a day lasted 58 hours, it was still up to him how much he could grasp time, which meant he had to do his best.

"Yes, Master," James suddenly said, Chronos' smile suddenly widened and James was overwhelmed by an insane amount of energy.

James' eyes widened as he looked at the old man in front of him and felt every nerve in his body being pressed down by a force, his body trembling and breathing becoming more and more difficult.

"It's very different from what I do, it's not like this when I slow down time, is this... real-time?"

As James watched Chronos carefully he could see his shadow, the two seemed to be in space, but Chronos had a shadow, covering all of space.

When James looked at the shadow he seemed to be able to see the past, he didn't dare look into the region of the future and he could see all the possibilities that encompassed the present.

It would be fair to say that his heart was pounding, his gaze and expressions were filled with fear.

In the pasts and possibilities he saw, he could see every single thing he had ever done and every single thing he could ever do.

Thousands of scenarios where he died to the Goblin King, hundreds of scenarios where he drowned in the sea of rascals, scenarios where he chose Erebus' card over Nyx's, scenarios where he killed Ariel, scenarios where he didn't listen to Chronos, and even scenarios where he rejected Nemesis' love.

He could see hundreds, thousands, tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands and even millions of scenarios. He was going out of his mind. He was going livid.

The time elemental imprints around Chronos were slowly beginning to cover Chronos' shadow, James could breathe more easily now and the trembling in his body had officially left him.

"What did it feel like? How much did you see?" Chronos said suddenly.

"It was scary...The past...The possibilities...Is this what you were talking about when you said you control destiny?" James suddenly asked, even though fear had left his body, his mind seemed to say otherwise.

"Exactly, I can see destiny, everything that can and will happen, how much of the future have you seen?" Chronos asked and James, hearing this, said "I didn't even dare to look there." and fell silent.

Chronos could hardly keep himself from laughing at these words and then started to speak:

"Now do you understand why I told you not to talk about the future?"

Hearing these words, James smiled, albeit involuntarily, and then said, "Yes, very clearly, it has never been so clear."

Chronos said, "The future is variable, James, as I mentioned before, each step taken and even each breath taken can lead to different results, this is what I call the probability direction."

When James heard the probability direction, he asked "Spacetime flow?", Chronos was surprised when he heard these words and said, "Exactly...how did you?".

James smiled and then said, "If you knew how many films and books have dealt with this subject in my world, old man, you'd lose your mind."

"Can you tell me how time works in your world?" Chronos asked, suddenly very interested, and James shook his head:

"It's a concept with three zones, past, present and future. In my world, if it was possible to go to the future, it was thought that if something was done in the future, it would not affect what is called the present. If it was possible to go back to the past, there would be two different concepts and beliefs.

Firstly, changing something in the past would not affect the events, it would only affect the current situation, in other words, going to the past and changing someone's death would not change the future you live in, but it would create a different timeline."

"The second belief is that in a situation where it is possible to go to the past if you change something or an event, you create another universe, another reality, another universe instead of another timeline. Some people say that if you go back in time, you can stay in the same universe as long as you change small things."

"In my world, Space and Time is a concept that consists of 3 regions and progresses as two changes and one future."

Chronos shook his head as James finished his words and then said, "Well, they're not entirely wrong, in a situation not under the control of fate or the direct control of the gods, it might work as they say."

"Focus, now you know what you need to do, my time element needs to be combined with yours," he said, closing the subject.

James did as the old man said closed his eyes and then began to allow his time element to match with his.

He could feel a higher concept surrounding his body like an aura comforting him, it was a very strange feeling. It was as if someone was giving him a big hug, he didn't even know how to describe the relaxation in his body.

In the end, it was obvious that it was working because James could feel his mind speeding up tremendously. The speed at which he was thinking now was not something he normally had. He was experiencing dozens of thoughts at once, trying to grasp the possibilities and the moves he could make within the possibilities.

However, with a sudden pain in his heart, he opened his eyes, and Chronos suddenly stood up and stayed where he was.

"Calm down and let it, let it embrace you," Chronos said it seemed that there was a lot to be solved in his teachings.
