Chapter 225 DO NOT UNLOCK (^^;)
This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml
For those who are confused about last few chapters,
(I'll explain the Odysseus chapters here.)
Nathan soul core that Leon snatched merged with a piece of Abomination. This Nathan(Abomination ver) had more memories. Apparently [Mephistopheles Earrings] when removed makes Nathan goes through a 'hell' but after returning from that 'hell' he loses his memories.
Nathan(Abomination Ver) fought with World Eating Serpent(Replica) with his new memories and experience he regained.
However, Nathan(Abomination ver) had to kill himself because Abomination was taking over the control.
He used [Ignition], the reward he gained from 1st [Singularity] Trial to kill himself. Of course, Abomination can't be killed so, Nathan didn't die but he also knew this would happen.
Neverhtless, this gave Pandora an excuse to descend and kill Abomination(Nathan).
After he is killed a new entity suddenly appears and reverses time before Nathan(Abominatio ver) is killed, this new entity then offers him a job offer and takes him away.
----------------------------
-You failed…human…
From his fading consciousness, he heard the Abomination talking to himself. In response, he opened his mouth.
"I did?"
A suffocating pressure smashed into them right when 'Nathan' spoke.
Two massive eyes appeared from the abyss.

With the penalty of death failing to kill 'Nathan', System got the excuse to descend and kill him. This was how 'Nathan' was planning on killing the Abomination... and himself.
A palm appeared in the void and crushed the Abomination.
[Pandora has used her Authority [???]]
The Abomination immobilized from fear couldn't as much utter a word.
The monster that could only be killed by [Authority] wielders, the Monarchs, was snuffed out of existence.

"Time Manipulation: Temporal Reversal"
The pieces of the tree stopped drifting into the endless void.
The shattered white dust flew back, forming the tree of life. At the end of its roots, a human figure slowly formed.
The roots of the holy tree dug into his skin and absorbed his life force. This was the penalty for using the legendary skill, death.
Nonetheless, the holy tree, the tree of life, failed to kill him. 'Nathan' was no longer a living being, the concept of death doesn't exist for an Abomination.
Not gaining nutrients from the tribute the tree withered and ultimately shattered into millions of pieces.
-You failed…human…
From his fading consciousness, he heard the Abomination talking to himself. In response, he opened his mouth.
"I did?"
A suffocating pressure smashed into them right when–
"Temporal Pause"
Time froze and so did the existence coming out of the abyss.
'Nathan' looked around in surprise, he could see the visage of the existence from Abyss, but it wasn't moving. Almost as if it was paused.
The space in front of him rippled and a figure stepped out.
Quietly staring at the figure, 'Nathan' again looked at the System that was also frozen in time and his vigilance peaked. 'This guy is dangerous.'
"Let's talk."
The figure was blurry, or it was better to say, he wasn't allowed to see him.
When 'Nathan' gave no response, the being spoke again.
"I can save you, so why don't we talk?"
"Thanks for the offer, but I'm afraid I'll be refusing."
Although outwardly calm, 'Nathan' was anything but calm inside. 'Just when I thought I knew everything, a new guy pops up, and he is powerful enough to toy with Pandora.'
The figure scratched the back of his back.
"Ugh, please don't refuse, those brats are killing me, they are a pain in the ass. If you refuse, I'll have to find another nanny for them and I'd rather not waste more time in finding someone with negative causality." He stopped and hurriedly shook his hands. "No, no, I mean they are good kids, so don't you accept my offer? I'll save you and in return, you will only need to become the caretaker of those brats in my place."
"Hah?! You want me to what?!"
"Hehe, don't worry, they are good kids, you wouldn't face any problem in looking after them." Rubbing his hands together, he spoke like a true salesman with a flattering tone.
"The heck…?"
'Nathan' didn't know how to react. An entity capable of controlling time at its whims was asking him to become a nanny to some kids.
He forcefully calmed himself.
"First of all, who are you?"
"Odysseus, you can say I'm a traveler of sorts." He again spoke cheesily. "So, are you looking at my offer in a good light?"
For better or worse, 'Nathan' was stumped.
'Since he is asking like this, maybe the job isn't bad? I can also get a relaxing life if I only have to look after the kids. No, wait! Why am I thinking of even accepting his offer?! It's too fucking suspicious! Even the bastard who brought me into this world is less dubious!'
His thoughts raced, and he settled on a decision.
"I'm sorry, but I'll have to refuse."
"Eh? But why?! Ah, are you worried about the children? Don't worry you have to look after only 13 brats." He nodded to himself, trying to assert that the offer was too good to be passed. "Moreover, the oldest is already good enough. The actual number you need to caretake is 12!"
'Nathan' shook his head. Yeah, no way he was going to accept the offer. It was getting shadier by the minute.
"My answer is still no."
Who would've thought that a day would come when Nathan would try to die, but someone else would try to save him? Moreover, his savior reeked fishy.
"I swear on my name as the [Forgotten One] and the [Creator of Chasm], I'm not lying! I'm not trying to trick you! Please, let me wash my hands off thos-ahem" The figure coughed and continued. "Anyway, I'll save you and I'll make sure no one here knows what happened to you. For them, you'll have died at the hands of System and they would know nothing more."
His ability to freeze System, an entity outside the bounds of time, confirmed his capabilities to back those words.
Before 'Nathan' could interfere, the figure parroted.
"I'll also seal the >Being of Chaos< trying to take over you. You are getting an offer with no equal and no strings attached! And you only have to say a yes!"
As 'Nathan' floated into the void created from destruction, the white hue spread from his sword and grew into a massive tree of light.
The roots of the holy tree dug into his skin and absorbed his life force. This was the penalty for using the legendary skill, death.
Nonetheless, the holy tree, the tree of life, failed to kill him. 'Nathan' was no longer a living being, the concept of death doesn't exist for an Abomination.

Those words went in one ear of 'Nathan' and came out of the other. He had heard something rather important.
"You are the creator of chasm…?"
"Ah, yes? Why?"
'Nathan' blinked.
"I'll accept your offer, but I have one more condition." Chasm, that damn thing was the reason behind everything, and this guy was its creator, he couldn't let this chance pass up. "I want to know everything about the Chasm."
"Deal!"
