143 Divide and Conquer (1/2)

Time always reverses when I am killed.

It is done automatically without any input from myself, consciously or unconsciously.

Therefore, it is quite impossible to actually kill me without nullifying my aspectual power first.

That is easier said than done. Even Terra herself was unable to nullify or suppress my power full since I could still feel it within me when she did.

This means that those who have succeeded in killing me and forcing me to be reborn are truly worthy of my respect.

I will pay respect where it is due even to those who I have considered as my enemy.

The objective word here is 'enemy'.

Zeus and his buddies aren't really my enemy. I think of them more as obstacles than enemy since they aren't really going directly against me and my interest.

If they did, the originals should be here in person, trying to stop me from saving humanity. Even if they are temporal clones, they would still do the same.

But so far, they have not.

They don't care about humanity one way or another. They just want to recruit a new member to their little interdimensional gang in order to somehow kill me, the Aspect of Time.

I am more flattered than being offended by that, to be honest. And I really want to meet the boss-lady to learn the real reason to why she wants to kill me.

The boss-lady must have known about the consequences if I die permanently. She must not care, so I guess I did something terrible to her.

Did I break her heart?

It seems most logical, considering the unimaginable powers she is likely wielding as well as those who are working for her. She could be anyone she desires in any reality, yet she is determined to kill me.

Only being dumped would do that to someone as powerful like her.

Seems likely, for hell has no fury like a woman scorned.

I shiver slightly at the thought.

Note to self. Don't break any more heart.

But if I did break her heart, I can probably put it back together again with my charming self if I haven't figure out a proper way to destroy a soul. Since the boss-lady has a ghost under her command, I think killing her physically will do squat.

I need to actually destroy her soul, so she doesn't come back and haunt me.

See what I did there?

As for killing me as I am right now, it wouldn't take much effort, considering my soul is very vulnerable to spiritual or supernatural attacks. How many types of attacks are there?

It feels like I will discover more as I wander the multiverse.

Defending against all type of attacks is going to be a real pain in the ass, but I have no choice.

And since the boss-lady is bothering with scouring the multiverse for Power Users to help her in killing me for something I have no fucking clue about, I can safely assume that the boss-lady is not responsible for my death and subsequently rebirth.

I am calling Zeus and his buddies as Power Users since they all wield Powers. That is a capital 'P' instead of normal powers. I will differentiate from them.

Powers are not magic. It is also not spiritual if I think more about it. I wonder what it is exactly.

It must be exceedingly powerful to affect an entire universe like this. Obviously if the boss-lady is trying to seek them out.

And when being wielded properly, it is devastating as demonstrated by Zeus in his preemptive strike against me from half way across the world. That is quite a preemptive strike.

In order to kill me as I am right now, an enormous amount of raw destructive power is required. Thanks to my augmentation, I am pretty much superhuman level at this point.

I did release all my biological limiters as I impersonate the Ori and spreading Origin. There is absolutely no need to hold back when I am playing as a God.

Gods do not hold back.

As such, Zeus didn't either when he smites me. That is quite a smiting.

A lightning bolt with the excess power of a billion volt wouldn't even able to damage me, not because the lightning bolt isn't powerful. It is just too brief to hurt me thanks to my regenerative power.

I can regenerate pretty much fatal wounds now. It does take a bit of time, however, so still shitty when compare to my time manipulation.

Besides, any lightning strikes would actually supercharge me instead due to the nanomachines floating within my bloodstreams and making a home for themselves in all my organs.

They have also upgraded themselves to continue my augmentation.

Even Selene is unable to tell me how they are doing that, meaning she has very little control over their core directives. She has administrative access, but she still unable to rewrite their programming.

Only the eccentric doctor can.

He is brilliant in their design. These nanomachines are lightyear beyond anything available in the 31st century, and even I am unable to replicate them without resorting to temporal duplication.

Honestly, if humanity didn't end up bombing each other into oblivion, I am certain that Gods will truly be born from the human race.

Maybe Zeus originated from the human race. He is a lot more powerful than from the myths. If myth-Zeus attacks me, it would be a shitty lightning bolt instead of a pillar of space lightning that rips through the megastructure enclosing the entire planet to simulate day and night cycle.

That same pillar of lightning also destroys the coliseum upon impact and glasses much of the surface of the planet. It is more than capable of vaporizing me, augmentation or not.

As a matter of fact, I didn't realize that I had died until I found myself watching the Queen of England trying to pull the sword out of the stone again. People who are watching and cheering her really have no idea what had happened a minute later.

But I do.

I remember everything that happens to me in death regardless whether I want to or not. While I have the ability to erase my own memory, I prefer not to regardless of whatever I suffer.

Pains and sufferings have shaped who I am, and I wouldn't have it any other way.

Although, I wonder what I am like before I was reborn again. I was powerful enough to strike fear into everyone, including those who have only heard of me like Zeus.

Speaking of Zeus, he remembers what happened like I do, somehow. It is displayed on his expression even if he tries to hide it. The cloaked drone can pick up the slight changes in facial expression, as it is used to detect lies amongst other things.

As for the others, they did not, meaning they have no defense against my power.

That makes thing easier for me.

I think I can take on Zeus if his power is lightning base. But fighting them all together at once, it will be quite a challenge, especially I do not fully understand their power and ability.
