The Idle System (A LitRPG series Book 7): Family, Pegaz [learn to read books txt] 📗

Now I know it’s my future self that placed it there, which means I’ve got more work to do!

If I remember correctly, the bloodstone is quite a rare object and even going through three major immortal sects’ treasuries, I didn’t find a single one.

The best way to get one is to create my own. It takes the blood of millions of people and who knows how many years to produce one, but luckily I’m a Transcendent now and I can take a few shortcuts.

John picked up a random stone inside the cave and opened the universal map in his system. He then teleported to the planet closest to the battlefield where the beastman’s war was still happening in this time period.

When he got to the planet, he walked through the teleport rune with no hassle because he was still using the light element to stay invisible.

On the battlefield, he flew to the desert area since he knew this place would be the bloodiest.

Before he did anything, though, he used the time element inside his eye to watch the past, and when he found the point where the battlefield was created, he used the time element to go back to that point.

Using the earth element, he buried the stone without letting the ground spit it back out. He then used the time element to come back to the present to check the stone.

When he dug it back out, it was a dark-red bloodstone which caused him to smile.

Teleporting back to where his past self was, he placed it inside the chest then unpaused time for his past self to unlock the Sinner’s Shop.

His past self then went back to the capital where John watched as his past self tried to kill the guild master of that town which was the real assassination target. Equipped with more knowledge now, he knew O’Malley was the person who gave her the job after meeting his past self.

John knew that what happened next wouldn’t need his help to make it happen, so he teleported back to the sect and used the time element until his past self arrived again.

That was when he remembered that his past self would find out Jamie was manipulated and go into a closed-door cultivation, so he kept going into the future.

His past self then robbed the Rogue Sect while leaving a note, met Michael before fighting him, Jeremy then killed Jamie’s clone, his past self lost control due to anger and started killing all the members inside the hub.

After his past self used a trick to escape from Jeremy, John followed behind him before the teleport rune was destroyed.

John couldn’t help but smile as his past self helped the kids at the orphanage by killing the nobles; however, he felt that wasn’t enough anymore.

So, by using his time element, he went to the orphanage and bought the girls that were for sale for the nobles. He made sure they were safe, but he also brainwashed everybody involved so the future wouldn’t change.

The nobles’ sins were quite high and I thought it had something to do with human trafficking, but now that I’ve saved the girls, I know that’s not the case.

I’m not curious enough to find out what sins they committed, though.

After manipulating a few rich people to foster the girls he saved, he watched his past self go on holiday, catch the slob of the lake, then head towards the Adventurers’ Guild to buy the maps.

Using his future knowledge again, he watched a worker add a few maps to the pile.

Those are the ones O’Malley bribed the guild to add. They’re the maps of the original planet which I’ll visit later.

He waited a bit longer to make sure there wasn’t anything else that happened that O’Malley didn’t tell him.

John then went to the auction to see if he missed anything back then. He was sitting inside a VIP area opposite his past self’s location. The person who occupied the room before him was standing in the corner, quietly counting to a million thanks to the Manipulate All skill.

His past self won the herbs, and the other items weren’t anything special.

The Death Sect’s elder blew up the booth he was in after his past self placed a higher bid and the events didn’t need John to help in any way.

John remembered his past self was going to disguise himself as Jonathan and kill the sinners in this city soon, but that the fire elementals would also attack.

Before that happened, John flew to the inactive volcano, turned on his Scan, and created a few threads to get inside the volcano without disturbing it too much.

During this fight in the past, John learned that the smaller fire elementals were under the control of the higher ranked elemental, so he targeted the highest elemental that his past self would eventually kill.

His thread touched the fire elemental and he commanded it to order the smaller elementals to attack the town.

The volcano erupted not long after. The city shook, but in his Scan, John saw that only a few old buildings collapsed. Luckily, nobody was inside those houses either.

John watched the lava flow down, heading towards the city. Low-ranked fire elementals started walking on the lava a few minutes later.

The first batch of immortals started fighting the fire elementals but were being pushed back because they couldn’t use the water element.

In his Scan, he watched Owen check the Adventurers’ Guild's vault which his past self would borrow the books out of after the fight. He watched the meeting of the immortals while his past self charged towards the volcano.

His past self dove inside the volcano, and in his Scan, John watched how his past self was struggling. After that, he watched the fight play out until the fire elemental boss was thrown out of the lava and landed inside the city before it died.

While all this happened, John made sure no innocent people were hurt or killed during
