Chapter 10 - Regression

Three hundred years in a time that once came.

"Oh Zakia there's nothing you can do, let me ask you, how many times have you tampered with time trying to change things here? , there's nothing you can do." Akida Biobaku, a man who looked like an unfinished human shaped sculpture with skin that resembled pure and refined platinum that shined as the sun rays hit upon its body and face, his facial features were not there, as if a sculptor had only made a rough outline of what the sculpture would look like but did not detailed it. He was the leader of a force called The Tribunal. They were an organization that maintained order in the world, one could even say they controlled the trend of things and how the world should work.

This was the case until a genius of a generation emerged three centuries ago and had a spell which allowed him to go back to the past and change it. The young man soared to the peak of power but unfortunately things went sideways for him as he caught the attention of the Tribunal as he encountered one of its members who succumbed to his might during a battle with him, because of this he was hunted down as his Spell to reverse time was even exposed to them and was in the end even forced to give it up to this organization or die as they claimed it to be a spell that would bring chaos and disturb the order of the world. The spell was dubbed as The Temporal Regression Spell. The one who was the user of this Spell was none other than Zakia Boro himself. 

At this moment he was in a haggerd state and had wounds all over his body. "Akida even if you stop me one day I will get past you and kill the lot of you, no one can stand in the way of my ambitions!! " as Zakia said this, golden light shined from his body and shapes that looked like numbers and clock hands rotating in a backward motion filled up the entire area of a approximately a hundred thousand kilometer radius. Akida's platinum radiance dimmed significantly as even people who were concealed in the areas covered by the golden light to get rid of Zakia got exposed, thousands of people were actually gathered in the area for this expedition organized by Akida. It seemed like they where using a power which connected them together to allowed Akida to wield power that matched Zakia and even surpassed him slightly leading to the current state of things. Zakia screamed an incantation "

Weaver of the Universe, 

Harbinger of Time,

Herald of Space,

Avant Courier of Matter,

Open the Door to the Time Frame,

In the Name of The Temporal Regression Spell,

Return! Three Hundred Years to the Past!!! "

Zakia fully activated this spell. The golden light got even more intense and piercing to the eyes even the clock hands were spinning in backwards even faster creating after images. Hundreds of people in the area withered to ash as this spell was used, Akida and a few people that were left hard aged quiet considerably if someone who knew them were to see their current state they would think they had lived for along time and they had one foot in the grave. 

 "Zakia even if you use the spells full power you will still in the end, end up here to be defeated by us, you're the one who is trapped in this time loop of resisting us and not being able to escape judgement from us time and time again. The West Wing Tribune even told me that she made a major breakthrough in finding flaws in your spell, she used a curse on you at the cost of her life, such that if you were to use this Spell again her curse would cause you to fail in the past that you plan to return to, now you even won't reach this level of power ever again, so all I can say to you is, you have fallen into our trap." Akida said in a raspy and haggerd voice as his commanding graceful tone of speaking and appearance from before had disappeared, even though he had no facial features and was in a miserable state one could tell that he had a smirk on his face. " Goodbye Zakia I hope we never meet again." the platinum skinned man, Akida who had aged considerably said, as he raised his hand high above his head and made a chopping motion and launched as sickle shaped white light towards Zakia. As the sickle touched Zakia's body, white light illuminated the world after the white light dissipated no sign of Zakia could be seen, the vast stretch of land around the area was turned into a barren wasteland without any trace of life whatsoever except the user of the attack, Akida, all the people around were sacrificed as he launched that final attack to finish him off in case his Spell failed to get him to the past. 

"Mhm...it looks like he succeeded, now that last attack was pointless but what can we say we have to use all means possible to take care of him, well that's the end of that I was really expecting to disrupt his spell, good thing the West Wing Tribune has made her move, he's definitely going to die this time that curse is nothing to scoff at *sigh* what a pity, only if we obtained that Spell of his after so many sacrifices." Akida said as he vanished into thin air from the area his whereabouts unknown. 

In a place that was outside of time, space and matter, where all can exist and also cannot, Zakia's soul was forcedly dragged out of his body before his body was evaporated by the sickle attack from Akida and traveled through this place as he had to endure corrosion from transversing through this place, after awhile his soul found its mark in time and was put in a developing foetus in a mother three hundred years in the past at the Seed Nurturing Academy's Healing Corp , this was Zakia's mother who was recruited from an outlying village outside the academy because of her talent and pore for the healing arts. When the child was a toddler both her mother and father disappeared as they were dispatched on a mission and they never returned to this day, they were declared MIA by the academy , the child underwent awakening and the High Elder who may be said to have practically raised the boy, also ended up becoming the boy's master, but when the boy reached adolescence and had trained and practiced to a a rank two completion Spell Caster at a young age showing great talent like his mother and high value to the academy , he changed, first thing he did was kill multiple of his fellow disciple brothers and sisters in a training spar. 

This was the moment when future Zakia's soul had adjusted in this body and had just healed from corrosion and was now ready to implement his plan to rise to power and escape the time loop he is trapped in by growing stronger than Akida and his combined forces in this lifetime.This whole process had happened a few times and could be seen as Zakia having another rerun of what he already knows, but a mishap occurred in this Regression as a soul from a different world was now fused with his as his plan to devour others was swiftly halted as he could not use his spells and opportunities efficiently to gain an advantage over his future adversaries. The name of this mishap was named Oliphant, events unfolded as they did as Zakia could now could only influence Oliphant, that was fused with him to do things a certain way so that the chain of events does not vary too much as he may lose his regression advantage even during this time an anomaly had already occurred as Oliphant was attacked a few months back by Shadow Corp disciples forcing Zakia to intervene expending some of his power and causing the slaughter of a village and death of a Shadow Corp disciple to try and mitigate the reduction of strength Zakia suffered by using a spell to dispatch the disciples, he was so weaken even one of them managed to escape

At present Oliphant was on a ship to the Valley of Sirens as one of the guards of a young man who did not want to breathe the same air as the common people approached him as soon as he boarded the ship.
