As the commotion happened, this Dungeon's Boss then noticed the 'me' from this Timeline's presence as he now can see him beside the rock which is bad since I know that the 'me' from this Timeline, Ragna Orion Miraikuru Kent doesn't have any powerful ability that at least enable him to defeat this monster even though he had some weapons in his side.
" Oh no, his weapons are not enough!!!!! "
" System is there anything I can do to help him even in this spiritual form? " I ask the System as it tells me that I can probably touch or move some objects but it will cost many energy and Mana, even though the System explains that warning my current self in this Timeline is possible if I help him fight the Boss.
" How can I help him? " I ask which the System tells me to help by injuring the boss on its leg as I did that to help my current Timeline self to slash his body which injures him very much as the blade hit right to its neck.
" He got it, guess he's not that weak after all, he had some guts ...!!! "
" Hey watch out !!! "
Right after the 'me' from this Timeline cuts the Boss' neck after falling, the Boss immediately grabs him and then slams him to the ground many times while he starts recovering his feet to it to stand.
" Grrkkkh.... "
" Get off me !!!! " he says while using his weapon to slash the Boss's hand.
As it happens, when I see every scene that happens to the 'me' in this Timeline, I began to remember that day in my Timeline where I and my Party are all Raiding this Dungeon and met with the same Boss.
Back then, I was the one who survive as a member of the Party who sacrificed himself for me and the event happens the same as what happened to the 'me' from this Timeline.
After I briefly remember that, I then realize that my current Timeline self right now is experiencing a Karma that I bear, a Karma for letting that Party member die like this for I remember for being a coward as I rather took the Magi Device Treasure and leave this very Dungeon, leaving him behind.
" So that's why in every timeline, I will always get a different kind of suffering? " I said to myself as I remembered the faults that I've done as I realized the algorithm of changes that the Universal Reboot has made to us.
" Karma ..., that's it ... "
" Unlike those Diviners and the beings equal to them, we humans are very vulnerable to the very abstract laws of Karma... "
" Our actions in every Timeline define what will happen to us in the next timeline. "
" Whether the actions are done directly or not directly. " I murmured as I understand what to do next.
At that very moment, I then try to knock the Boss's head which cost me a lot of my spiritual power but thankfully it gives the 'me' from this Timeline a chance to escape from its grasp as he then uses his mere strength to stab the Boss in wounds he created earlier.
" Die die die !!!!! "
" That treasure is mine !!!!!! "
" The Magical Device treasure in this Dungeon !!!! "
" It belongs to me !!!! " he says while stabbing the Boss on its head, but still it managed to fight back despite the blade being already planted on its head.
*GROWL*
As the Boss growls at the pain, it then begins to go on rage as it now deems that my current Timeline self is a serious threat that should be eliminated for it to successfully guard the treasure.
"These monsters only existed to guard this very treasure ... "
" For a Boss like him was chained in a Vow to guard the very mystical items that the ancient Manahumans (Sorcerers) gained after raiding some of the Primordial Temples. "
" This vow that the Manahumans gave, usually made the monsters they captured and tame guard the item to their very life as the monsters' whole life is linked to the very treasure itself. "
" That's why it is common for it to be stressed if someone managed to hurt them like this since the treasure is their life. " I explain even though my current self maybe can't hear my voice in this form but still, I didn't know if it's his instinct or not, but he managed to wound the monster's feet yet again as I think he planned to let the monster loose it's balance.
When he does that, the feet then was cut which makes the monster have to fall forward as the fall results in the knife getting pushed inside its very head, killing it instantly.
" He ... he did it ... "
" He defeated the Boss with such a great plan, ... "
" A plan that didn't come to me during this very event back then, from the Timeline I came from. " I saluted my current self as I never thought that even without any Grace, he still managed to easily kill the Boss without even myself fully lending a hand.
..
" The Boss is dead ... " Ragna Kent from the current Timeline says, unaware of his previous Timeline Self's presence as he approached the altar where the Magical Device is being put above.
" So this is what they call the forbidden magical item huh ...? "
" Looks pretty normal to me ..., even though I must say that it looks like a DB's Scouter," he says as the device reminds him of a VRMMORPG device that exists from those game animes but has a body looks like a large ball and had many weird mechanical features which he found very suspicious.
As he touched that, the magical device is activated as it then suddenly attached itself to him, turning it into some sort of a ball as it enters his mouth.
" Hey what is ...? " he says while the device then enters his body, installing itself on his organic physique.
< Initializing Initializing >
< Magi Nano System Mk-III has found a suitable user !!! >
< Installing Process begins. >
" Hey what happened!!!!!??? " he shouts as he was shocked by this very first experience.
" Accept it ... " said a voice which Ragna Kent from this Timeline then turns himself back, only to see Ragna Kent from the 12th Timeline, the old Ragna Kent crossing his hands and tells him that the System chose him for he is worthy to hold it.
" Be rejoiced, my current timeline self ... "
" For this very machine is the first thing that chose you in your life as its vessel, just like me back then," he says.
" Who ... who are you? "
" Who am I ...? "
" Yes ... "
" Hmmm ..... "
" ... "
" About that .... "
...
...
" Let's just say that I am 'you' ... "
" But from another Timeline ...., how does that sound? " Ragna from the 12th Timeline answers as he continues to explain to his current self everything during the Magi Nano System's installation in his body.
