47 Passage of time (2/2)

Age didn't matter anymore, I couldn't remember it as the time on the island and in the workshop differs, my age regressed to my twenties with Emma and it was part of the guild benefits.

Rolph who was my grandchild became a great man, he completed the beginner tower and also did half of the normal tower. I felt proud but he still had more space to grow.

Isoc looked young as usual but Johnson even though he also became young a very complicated thing happened with him.

”Boss, I remembered your words, I couldn't live alone… I wanted a family too! I got it in the end but it turns out to not be my own! How can I live like this!” Johnson cried as he kept hitting the ground.

Depression hit him, he tried to kill himself. ”Ace! Don't stop me! I can't live without them… it hurts! It hurts being betrayed, lied to!” placing the gun on his head he kept screaming his pain. It was at night when I came into his room to check up on him after the words he said in the morning.

Using my speed hack and full speed I took the gun away and destroyed it before grabbing him by the neck in rage. ”IS THIS WHAT YOU WANT?! TO ESCAPE REALITY?!”

My shout waked up everyone on the island as they rushed towards Johnson hut.

I threw Johnson out of the hut breaking the door with his body and left the hut looking at him. ”AREN'T WE YOUR BROTHERS?! ARE WE STRANGERS TO YOU?! WHAT WILL WE DO WHEN YOU ARE GONE?!” I shouted at him as I beat him while he laid on the ground.

”Black castle! Come out!” I grabbed Johnson by the neck and dragged him into the black castle. ”Take us to his house”.

Minutes went by and we reached Johnson family house, I threw Johnson out of the door ”Follow me” I said to him and walked into the house. Johnson stood up weakly as he followed me ignoring the shocked guards.

Kicking the door open, I woke up everyone in the house. ”Get in!” I looked at Johnson.

”Who is here?!” An elder man came down the stairs followed an elderly woman and several young females.

”Look at your daughters behind them,” I said to Johnson as his eyes were tearing up. ”They weren't your elder brother children, I can confirm it… damn it, Johnson!”

”Johnson?!” The elderly man looked at his son with shock. The 4 girls behind the old man stood still. Michael walked down in his robe and looked at Johnson with shock ”Brother…”

”Johnson, out of regret, your eldest brother took care of your children, your wife… their mother became weak after what happened leading to her becoming an empty vessel, she felt regret, depression and in the end became a person who has to be fed, washed and taken care off.”

”Your daughters, when they discovered the truth became shocked, they hated your eldest brother and everytime he tried to help them, they ignored them and cursed him but your brother still took care of them regardless… you might think I am a bad person Johnson for making you go through this but I took care of them while you were on the island, your daughters were my nieces Johnson… damn it!” I punched the wall next to me and left the house leaving Johnson alone, I watched from far.

”Father!” The girls ran to their father crying. ”I…” Johnson shocked, unable to move, droplets fell on the ground as he held his children. ”Sorry… Sorry for leaving you” Johnson cried as he hugged his daughters hard.

The family watched as they cried, Michael aged face was full of tears ”Brother, I am sorry for what I did…”.

”Stop, I don't want to hear a thing from you” Johnson released his entire killing intent towards Michael making him freeze on his spot. Johnson looked at his daughters with his red eyes ”My baby girls, do you want to come with me?”

The girls looked at each other and nodded ”Yes father, take us with you”. Far away I looked and a smile appeared on my face.

2 years before the invasion

Dungeons, labyrinths, and towers appeared on earth but no one discovered them other than us. Johnson lived in the tavern he controls with his daughters after deciding that he needs to stay with them isolated.

The farm on the island has expanded thankfully due to the increase of the space and time element. Blacksmithing finally reached the perfection of mortals, this shocked Anima as it was not possible to do this within a few years.

Several soldiers reached grade 4, Bolzru became a grade 6, many new faces were soldiers and thousands of races are now separated in the world safety zones created with my new creations, hidden from the public.

1 year before the invasion…

”Time goes by fast” I laughed as I was training in the newly built arena which sent random fighters everytime based on my attributes. ”Ace! Focus!” Emma shouted as she laughed at my shocked face.

”Father! Keep it up!” Rain, Viktor, and Kate cheered.

”Grandfather! I want money!” Rolph screamed as he became crazy for gold as we opened interdimensional shops here.

My face tightened up, I sent a space destroying punch towards the enemy killing him in one hit. ”Nooo!” I fell on the ground as I realized I wasted another training partner.

”Hahaha!” The crowd laughed formed from soldiers, guards, workers, servants, trainers, and merchants.

I smiled and stood up before removing the dust on my shoulder. ”Brat! I will beat you!” I jumped from my spot appearing with a split of a second next to Rolph and grabbing his shirt.

”Haha!” I laughed as I looked at his scared face.

Time is never scary, what's scary is not using your time well.

”Master, everything is prepared” Rose appeared next to me and said in a calm voice.

I guess the day has come… ”Let us go”.
