Chapter 235 Back To The Apartment



"Libra Building, right?" The receptionist, Amara, who was previously begging me for forgiveness, was now sitting in the driver's seat of her luxurious car as she smiled before starting the engine.

I nodded at her as I looked outside the window at the building where my mom worked. The Dark Oracle, huh? Hmmm…. I should level up a little and improve my skills before coming back here again. 

'The starting levels should be easy,' I thought as I pondered a bit more before turning at the smiling Amara, who was excitedly looking at the road as she drove the car.

To be honest, I wasn't going to interfere until I realized that most of the staff, even the bottom ones, have a reputation to uphold. They aren't just mere staff members but people who have been selected after a triple interview, one of which was done by mother personally. 

I asked if Amara had a car and she nodded with slight confusion before I continued asking if she works for me for a day. I will put in a good word for her in front of my mother if she can do that, which she happily agreed to.

From there onwards, we both were quiet as we traveled through the entire city to our location. My eyes observed the area around me while I kept an eye on Mom, using the [Space Time Map]. 

There were a couple of reasons why I wanted to go to the Libra building. One was to find out if George, White or Alex were one of the regressors or not, the other was the Gym which was at the top of the building. It would be a good time to complete the [Daily Quests] and gain the next level. 

The Final reason was to place a marker, so that when the Apocalypse occurs, I could come back here to retake the Dungeon of Libra. I would love to meet Erina again in the dungeon… and, more importantly, I would like to meet Kira.

"We are here,"said Amara, as we reached the place. I could see the building in front of me as nostalgia filled my face. How long has it been since I have seen this place… hmmm… just a few days ago.

Anyways…

"Take the main entrance,"I said and Amara answered,"Roger that." My eyes looked around at the guards and at the shopping center on the right.

[New Dungeon Found!]

[Dungeon of Chaos Libration!]

My eyes blinked for a second as I observed the notification and I turned to Amara as I spoke in a hurried tone,"slow the car for a second."

Confused by my sudden command, she slowed the car and I opened the door as I said,"Park the car and come here."

Though she was still confused, she followed my command without asking any questions as she should. Meanwhile, I locked my eyes on the shopping center, which was more like a small convenience store for the people of the Libra building.

'This wasn't there the last time,' I thought as I read the notification more clearly now.

[Dungeon of Chaos Libration!]

[By the Gods of War and Chaos, the world was nothing but an echo of the past of their mistakes. For them, they were the ruler and the mere existence of a God free world was as if the heavens had spat on them. Yet, they could do nothing about it.

My eyes looked at the description for a couple of seconds and more, and my eyes widened a little. I understood why the Dungeon wasn't present the last time. It's because it's time limit was over before I could see it.

"Seems like I hit the jackpot?" I thought for a couple of seconds with a sudden smile before turning back at the Libra building and moving towards it. My eyes saw Amara coming from the parking area as she followed behind me.

"Welcome Sir Michael,"the guy standing there spoke as I smiled at him and nodded before moving inside the building towards the lift. My eyes looked around to find a couple of things here and there, just in case I might find something interesting again. Sadly, I didn't…

Entering the lift, I and Amara waited for it to reach Floor 64, where my apartment was. As I got out of the Lift, I moved towards the apartment and reached near the door. 

I tried opening the door but… I forgot the keys…

I looked at Amara, who was looking at me before I turned back at the door and tried opening it once again

[Time Rejection!]

-Click!

And that's how you open a closed door when you forget the key. Mmhm, so with that out of the way, I entered the room as I felt something odd. I think I heard a voice from the inside.

'Did Dad come back?' I wondered if he was one of the regressors, but then he should be calling us first then to meet us. With my eyes narrowed, I moved inside the room as I looked around the empty living room.

"What is it?" Amara asked as she looked at me, while I traced the entire room, before sighing. 

[Space Time Map] showed four individuals in the living room. One hiding behind the sofa, another in the kitchen, and two of them on the balcony.

As for their power levels, all of them were pretty normal. Nothing really special about them. Were they thieves or something? Hmmm… interesting. I looked at Amara, who was just standing there as I pointed at the sofa,

"Sit there. I will… come in a moment."

My eyes looked around for a few moments before I opened the kitchen door as I saw the first guy hiding begins the door while I took out a couple of fruits from the fridge before turning around to see

[Name: Adam Jhonson 

Race: Human

Class: Unclassified]

A black-haired kid with an awkward smile plastered on his face. I think he was one of the friends of George who died in the previous timeline. His eyes were black like his hair and with a short build and those skinny bones. It looked like he would die if I slapped him even once. Honestly, I felt pity for him… 

"BOO!" I shouted, and he slipped on the floor

-Thud!

I chucked as I spoke,"come out. I am preparing some fruit salad, help me cut the fruits," while I moved out of the kitchen. Though before I stepped out, I spoke once more,"I will not repeat my words again."

Hearing my words, he stood up as he hurriedly took the other fruits in the kitchen and walked behind me. While I saw the other guy, trying to make a run for the outside gate. Though his eyes stopped at me before he saw his friend was coming from behind with fruits in his hands, making him halt his movements.

[Name: Blake Jhonson

Our eyes conceded as I smiled at him, pointed the knife at him, before pointing at the sofa on the right side. Understanding my signal, he smiled with a dry chuckle before he moved to the other side.

Well… honestly, they even themselves did not know what they were doing… but why were they here?

"GEORGE!!!!!!"

Before I could process anything, I heard a shout from the balcony.
