In regard to the chaotic circumstances surrounding him, Jeremy was, in truth, not particularly well-informed.
At this moment, all of his attention was entirely focused on absorbing the knowledge and power that the awakened gemstone provided him.
The knowledge encompassed within the talent he had chosen, known as The King of Time and Space, was remarkably extensive, and Jeremy found himself unable to memorize all of it in such a short span of time.
However, this knowledge had already infiltrated Jeremy's mind, so his task following the completion of his awakening was to continuously contemplate the insights that resided within his brain during the course of battle.
The knowledge bestowed upon Jeremy by the awakened gemstone posed a relatively minor threat to him.
The true source of significant peril for Jeremy stemmed from the power granted to him by the awakened gemstone.
The powers provided to Jeremy by the awakened gemstone were entirely related to his abilities to perceive and manipulate space and time.
This consequently implied that the very space and time in which Jeremy currently existed had been distorted by the corresponding powers.
At this point, Jeremy could no longer perceive the existence of the space surrounding him.
The planners of the apocalypse game, along with the class change goddess Janna and the battles within the "World." seemed to have no bearing on Jeremy whatsoever.
Empowered by the strength conferred upon him by the awakened gemstone, Jeremy observed the unfolding events in the realm where the class change goddess Janna resided from a third-party perspective.
At this moment, Jeremy appeared to have completely transcended his physical form, transforming into a purely spiritual entity.
His own consciousness had become somewhat disoriented and hazy.
It seemed as though he had forgotten what he was currently engaged in. He also lost sight of the purpose for which he had come here.
Jeremy simply stared vacantly at the ongoing battle among the others.
His unusual state did not go unnoticed, as both the class change goddess Janna and the "World" quickly picked up on his condition.
With an urgent tone, the class change goddess Janna addressed the "World."
"Jeremy's current state is quite dire. It seems that his spirit has been overwhelmed by the power of the awakened gemstone, and he is very likely unable to complete the awakening ritual.
We must begin to consider alternative strategies! In the event of Jeremy's failure, we need to ensure our own safety. Perhaps we should opt for an immediate retreat."
Although the class change goddess Janna held some confidence in Jeremy, her understanding of the awakening ritual was far more profound.
From her perspective, it appeared that Jeremy's awakening ritual had utterly collapsed.
Given this reality, it was clear that they should not squander any more time in this place.
However, the thoughts of the "World" were entirely different from those of the class change goddess Janna.
"We cannot simply retreat, and I believe that Jeremy's awakening ritual has not completely failed. I feel that Jeremy can regain his consciousness."
After uttering this statement, the "World" activated the gemstone it had provided to Jeremy.
"I can only assist you up to this point, the rest must be accomplished by you alone. All I can do is ensure that the planners of the apocalypse game do not interfere with your awakening ritual."
The "World" hoped to facilitate Jeremy's swift return to awareness through its own means.
Having made this final effort, the "World" charged directly towards the directions of the "Magician" and "The Hanged Man."
These two individuals were the only ones posing a threat to Jeremy within the apocalypse game.
Thus, Jeremy's consciousness continued to oscillate back and forth between humanity and divinity.
As the frequency of this switching increased, the memories belonging to humanity and those pertaining to deity began to gradually intertwine within Jeremy.
The divinity brought forth by the gifts of the King of Time and Space was slowly but surely being fully absorbed into Jeremy's very being.
After an indeterminate passage of time, Jeremy's consciousness finally returned in its entirety.
"My name is Jeremy, I am a human! The divine power I currently possess is merely due to the gifts I have received from the King of Time and Space!"
The moment Jeremy realized this, the awakening gemstone was reduced to ashes. All the power contained within the awakening gemstone flowed entirely into Jeremy's body.
Jeremy's awakening ritual was now fundamentally complete.
However, the forces surrounding Jeremy had not yet fully dissipated. It was only after these forces had completely dispersed that Jeremy's awakening ritual could be deemed utterly finished.
Even though the awakening ritual had not yet been wholly completed, he was still able to observe the situation around him.
"I never expected that so many planners from the apocalypse game would appear during the course of my awakening ritual. It was to be anticipated that powers associated with the White Tower and the Sun would manifest here.
Yet, I distinctly remember that I had not previously offended the Hanged Man or the Magician!
Why must they also appear here to interfere with my awakening ritual?!"
Jeremy's questions remained unanswered.
For there was no one who could fathom the inquiries plaguing Jeremy's mind at that moment.
The class change goddess Janna sensed that Jeremy's consciousness was gradually recovering.
However, she still could not ascertain whether Jeremy had fully completed the awakening ritual.
Thus, the class change goddess Janna was able to continue engaging in battle.
At this moment, the World found itself in a disadvantageous position. Faced with the combined assault of the Hanged Man and the Magician, the World could not endure for long.
"Apparently, betraying the Fool has not granted you any greater power." the Magician said in a mocking tone.
"You still have time to surrender. The Fool is exceedingly merciful, he will not torment you for long.
All you need to do is surrender your power and those who have conspired with you.
The Fool can grant you forgiveness."
The World had no intention of responding to the Magician's taunts.
It was solely focused on contemplating how to engage in battle next.
In the eyes of the World, he had to defeat the two planners of the apocalypse game one by one.
Attempting to vanquish both of them simultaneously was simply too daunting a task.
"I know what you are thinking." the Hanged Man finally spoke.
"You wish to take us down individually, but that is absolutely impossible.
For we will always act in concert when faced with any situation." the Hanged Man declared in a chilling tone.
The Hanged Man and the Magician had long since seen through the World's tactics.
