Chapter 21 - Ascension Begins

It seems that Revert only works when he is in contact with the object he wants to affect

According to his observations, one second of Revert was equivalent to rewinding the targeted object by one full day

After Tarkan was done with his observations, he turned to look at Slim, who had finished eating his barbecue and was now staring at Tarkan with an expressionless face

but there was a hint of concern in his eyes. He'd been watching Tarkan for some time, but couldn't tell what he was doing

All he saw was Tarkan bending down and picking up leaves, looking at them for a while, then tossing them away before picking up another

Slim couldn't help but worry about Tarkan's mental health

"Slim," Tarkan called, snapping Slim out of his thoughts.

"I'm planning to go into the Ascension Realm now, Is there anything I need to know about getting there?"

Tarkan had lived his whole life like a barbarian, always in forests filled with trees and beasts

He was tired of living like that, He wanted to live where there were people

Ever since he came to this world, all he'd been eating was meat never once had he tasted any other delicacy apart from that

The reason he'd been living this way was as simple as abc he had no money

No matter the world, money had always been king.

It was the reason most people wanted to become ascenders not just for the power, but for the level of wealth that comes with it

Thinking about that, he couldn't help but feel even more determined

For the second time since Tarkan had known him, Slim scratched the back of his head in an embarrassed manner, breaking from his usual blank expression

"as I've said before I had never entered the Ascension Realm or allowed to learn any information about it

We were only meant to awaken to prove if we were worthy of being slaves to the Drazmir family," Slim said.

"We were only taught how to fight, and what our place was and are only allowed to begin our path to ascension if our masters so wishes for us to ascend."

"Wait, you're telling me you willingly volunteered to be a slave?" Tarkan couldn't help but look at Slim with a strange expression

Who in his right mind..? he thought while staring at Slim.

"Yes," Slim replied, back to his expressionless face.

"Why?" Tarkan couldn't wrap his head around why someone would willingly volunteer for something like that not to mention someone with the potential of an ascender.

"For protection," Slim answered simply.

Tarkan looked at him for a moment, but said nothing more.

"I want you to enter the Ascension Realm and grow stronger

I don't need a baggage by my side

After you come out, wait for me."

With that, and without waiting for Slim's response, he activated the mark on his right hand and disappeared beginning his first journey into the Ascension Realm

Slim stood there, staring at where Tarkan had just vanished.

A small smile appeared on his face his normal expressionless expression nowhere to be found

He couldn't help but mutter

"Guess I got lucky with a master."

He then activated his own mark and teleported away.

Upon activating the tattoo, Tarkan felt a cool sensation wash over his body, followed by an intense dizziness

By the time he recovered, he had already arrived in another world.

"Sigh…" he let out a frustrated breath.

Why is it that fate has deemed all my spawning sites to be tied to where trees are?

He was already fed up with it

The surroundings were filled with towering trees bursting with vitality, as well as all sorts of exotic plants.

But Tarkan knew deep down

the more beautiful something looked, the more danger it usually held

He began scanning his surroundings in full alert.

The boars had taught him a harsh lesson, the last time he was careless and he wasn't planning to relive that experience.

He also needed to save as much time as possible on the timer.

However, at that moment, Tarkan suddenly felt his whole body go soft.

He almost fell to the ground, trying to stop himself
