His past self then went to the immortal area, met Amanda, and eventually went to the Immortal Sect. John was standing on the teleport rune along with his past self since it was large enough for more than one person.

Arriving in the admin building, his past self handed a letter to someone and walked away. What he didn’t expect was the man started laughing after his past self left.

The man thought the letter wasn’t anything important since it came from an outer elder that didn’t have any connections in the sect, and nobody here even knew her.

The man was just about to toss the letter in the bin until John used the Manipulate All skill on him and ordered him to take the letter to his superiors and eventually to the sect master.

John then watched as the events happened like he remembered. After his past self reached Rank 2, John knew where he was going and didn’t feel like following his past self through the teleport runes.

John used his universal map to teleport to the planet where his past self’s first mission would happen before using the time element until his past self arrived.

He then watched his past self meet Michael, the grand elder who was on Jeremy May’s side and would eventually take over the sect after killing his master, though he now knew that was only a clone.

That was when Sarah’s past self appeared. John could only smile as his past self made a fool of himself but still managed to win the fight. To this day, John still reminded Sarah of this fight every now and then.

John teleported back to the Rogue Sect’s planet and used the time element again. When his past self came back, John watched O’Malley clone his master before taking his master away.

O’Malley couldn’t detect me. I’m very tempted to kill him again now for that letter he left me, but I don’t know what kind of effect that would have in the future, and I might have to pay the price for it, too.

Forget it. It’s just not worth it.

His past self went to the monitors inside the assassin’s hub, and John knew that it was time for the long-mission to occur. He did the same trick and teleported on the planet where the mission was and used the time element until his past self appeared.

When he heard his past self and a random person talking about the tournament, he remembered something.

This tournament was supposed to have over ten thousand people taking part, but when I won the preliminaries, that number was nowhere near that figure as only one hundred people made it.

Did my future self have something to do with that?

Sighing, John used the time element to stop time before flying to the capital. He entered the Adventurers’ Guild and went through their files, looking for all the information about the tournament.

He found where all the preliminaries took place throughout the kingdom and then flew to the closest one inside his world map.

When he got there, he used the time element in his eye to watch the tournament in this town and found where the combatants that passed the preliminaries were staying. When those people got on a carriage which was headed to the capital, John kidnapped them and teleported them to the other side of the world.

He repeated this process for all towns that held the tournament, and when he was finished, there were over ten thousand people in an open field.

John then used the time element to unpause time and shouted, “For reasons none of you can understand, you can’t enter this tournament! However, because it’s my fault that you can’t enter, I’m going to compensate you.”

The people were confused about how they got there and scared that it happened without them even realising it.

John used his threads to force the people to line up rather than waiting for them to calm down. He gave each of them some adamantium coins and a single piece of equipment that he had left over from the battlefield inside his Storage Space since that would be more than enough to change their lives.

John didn’t let them go, though. He used the Manipulate All skill on everyone and changed their memory so they thought they willingly gave up the opportunity to fight in the tournament for the rewards they received.

He remembered hearing about an investigation after the tournament, but because he brainwashed them, when the investigation team found them, nothing came out of it.

I know why my future self did this.

Sarah was on a break from her training at this time and if the tournament held the original ten thousand people, my past self would never have met Sarah a second time on the balcony.

I had always wondered what happened to these people and now I know.

John then continued watching his past self’s life.

Chapter 42: Working Hard

John watched his past self and Sarah talk on the balcony at the king’s feast. Sarah still had her red hair and green eyes at this point in time, causing John to become a little nostalgic.

According to what O’Malley said, a few years after transcending, Sarah’s hair and eyes will go back to their original colour. I’m looking forward to seeing her becoming a redhead beauty again.

He then saw Sarah and her master fly off.

When his past self went into the library to read four and a half million books, John used the time element to skip it since he had done enough reading to last for five lifetimes.

That was when he saw his past self fight bandits in the cave which caused John to remember something. He used the time element to stop time before he teleported inside the hidden room that was behind the leader’s seat.

He walked up to the old chest he remembered and opened it up. It was empty.

Shit.

I remember finding the bloodstone inside this chest which was used as a catalyst
