I thought deeply about the time manipulation he used.

Unlike space manipulation, it is a time manipulation that blood magic cannot properly resist.

What properly resisted the manipulation of time was the concentration of paranormal spirit and power gathered by the Seven Spiritual Demons.

Yes.

It was not the essence that resisted time, but the magnitude of the force.

A principle of resistance that is completely different from that of space.

I looked back at the ‘flow’ I experienced earlier and guessed the principle behind the ability to manipulate time.

“Time… changes soon.”

Time is the flow of the world that occurs because all objects have momentum.

Its ability was to adjust the ‘flow’ of time quickly or slowly.

The reason why the concentration of power resisted the flow it manipulated was because the scale of the power had become heavy enough to not be swept away by the flow.

At the same time, I discovered evidence that the flow he had slowed was limited to this area, not the entire world.

“Sand is clumped together.”

There was a direction in which quite a lot of sand had piled up, centered around the three-story laboratory building on the ground.

A very small sand dune that clearly wasn’t there when I came.

When I read the memories of the surroundings using psychometry, a strong sand wind blew, but when I entered a certain area, the wind speed gradually slowed down, and the sand in the wind began to pour on the floor and not move.

The sandstorm behind it continued to blow and settle, causing the sand to continue to accumulate and form a lump of sand.

In summary, starting from a certain area, the wind speed slowed down and sand began to pile up on the ground.

This means that the scope of time manipulation is limited.

It is impossible to stop the entire world, and only the flow in the surrounding area can be stopped.

And at the same time, I also discovered the weakness of his time manipulation ability.

Gravity.

The speed at which the sand fell in the wind slowed down, but it wasn’t a big change.

When I thought about it, I remembered that when time was stopped, blood was leaking from the wound, albeit slowly, even though time was extremely slowed down, making it difficult for me to even move a fingernail.

Even though all the flows in the area seemed to have stopped, one flow continued to operate without completely stopping.

“If you think about it, it’s obvious. If all momentum, including gravity, has stopped, it means that it should not move as if it were stuffed in space, which would be opposite to the movement of the Earth.”

The Earth’s orbital speed alone is 30,000 m/s.

Because the Earth continues to move due to the gravitational force of other celestial bodies and its own,

If all the momentum in a specific area, especially gravity, had slowed down as if it had stopped, the ground in that specific area would have been torn off from the Earth according to the law of inertia and escaped into space.

But the fact that it didn’t mean that gravity was almost an exception to that damn time stop.

“Gravity is an exception? It is called time, but just as the power of telekinesis is not real light or photons, time manipulation is not the ability to deal with the real time of physics.”

Still, there is no doubt that time manipulation is an absurd ability.

That’s why I was interested in the other master pieces, nullification and acquisition of supernormal abilities.

Would other master pieces be just as strong or effective?

I’ll have to find out.

First, I released my union with the dragon and returned to the hotel I was originally staying at.

Fortunately, the noise of self-recognition covered my body, so Yongin’s appearance was not exposed to others.

Anyway, after returning to the hotel, I spoke to the association staff and Chae Yu-ah.

“Now that we’ve had enough rest, let’s go to the next request.”

I made a fuss by killing the core of the Inner Circle and ruining the research project, but continuing to live in the United States was a bit like that.

This is a situation where the entire power of the Inner Circle may gather together and join forces.

There is no proof that I did it, but you never know.

First, in the hotel room where I was nominally staying, I used psychometry to destroy the traces so that no one else could use psychometry to see anything.

Complete destruction of evidence.

Afterwards, I and the association staff spent the night, then went to the airport and left the United States.

Before leaving the airport, American agents who appeared to have learned mind-reading approached the association’s employees.

The association’s employees were already under complete mental control with my barbell.

In the end, he is a government agent who returns without finding out anything.

I calmly returned to Korea as if nothing had happened.

And I met James in Korea.

After taking a break at home,

James calmly breaks into my house.

Of course, the face and body were not that of the white person I knew, but that of a completely different Asian person.

“What is that superpower? Is it an extrasensory system?”

He previously said that he had 10 superpowers each in the categories of physical augmentation, telekinesis, and extrasensory perception.

However, there are only eight extrasensory powers currently known on Earth.

Psychometry, telepathy, clairvoyance, mind reading, clairvoyance, hallucinations, xenogloss, precognition.

If you add the master pieces of possession and mastery that he showed to these 8 superpowers, you get exactly 10.

“It is a superpower called possession. There are a few manifesters among humanity on Earth, but they all operate in the shadows and are of low rank.”

The real name of his superpower was also possession.

It’s definitely a name that fits the function perfectly.

“Rather than that, did you bring the relics I mentioned?”

“Yes, I had a hard time bringing this. If the compensation you offer is not enough, it is difficult to give.”

An S-class alien refugee was not a big deal, but Robert Freeman, who was the sword of the U.S. government, was definitely a scary opponent.

“Don’t worry about that. I’ll be quite satisfied. The reward I will give you is a relic of possession and acquisition. With this, you too can have those two abilities.”

“Oh?”

That was definitely a compensation that appealed to my taste.

This is because I experienced the ability to manipulate time and became interested in the supernatural power called Master Piece.

“However, the only thing I have now is the relic of possession. The acquisition can only be achieved if you first give me the relic.”

“What is it? Are you kidding me? Trust you and just ask?”

What’s the difference between saying you’ll take it and pay it back?

“It can’t be helped. As you know because you have extrasensory abilities, this is only a very small part of a certain paranormal mind. Specifically, it is an item created after a person with omniscience and extra-sensory abilities who rose to the SS level fought and lost to the corps commander of Saint Menas. I have no choice but to use the power of those relics to create the relics I have acquired that I will give you.”

“Hmm…”

“If it is not me, I cannot fully obtain the supernatural power of this supernatural spirit. If you want to gain knowledge from this supernatural spirit on your own, you must compete directly with the spirit of the Omniscient or take the gamble of injecting it into your body.”

Does he have another way to deal with this paranormal spirit?

I thought about just subduing him, but he wasn’t the main body right now, and I wasn’t sure if my barbell would be able to completely brainwash a class A specializing in the mind.

Plus, if I give him this relic, he won’t suddenly become SS-level and persecute me. At best, it will be at a level that will help you become S-class.

In the end, I decided to compromise.

“Good. But if you don’t give me the relic of acquisition, you will become a corpse.”

“I also don’t want to be hostile to you for killing an S-class ability. Besides, trust me that Oracle is taking care of me.”

He sounds like a fraud when he says it with his own mouth…

Besides, I don’t know how close he is to Oracle.

But there is no way for me to properly use this relic.

In the end, in a depressed mood, I received the possessed artifact from him and handed over the artifacts captured from the lab.

“I finally got it…! If only I had this legacy…!”

“Keep your promises. As quickly as possible.”

“Of course, it is not as difficult as you think. I’ll make it for you right now.”

James swallowed the liquid I gave him and closed his eyes.

what?

Suppressing part of the mind of an SS-class psychic with such a simple method?

In the first place, isn’t that body even the main body?

At that time, my essence’s magical eye saw the spirit of the bastard and the paranormal spirit of the relic communing.

A guy who maintains some unknown mental connection.

Then, the paranormal spirit of the relic is voluntarily absorbed into it.

A huge mental exchange transmitted across space, with the help of telepathy and the natural connection of possession.

And I saw with my own eyes that James’ paranormal spirit began to change.

‘James’ paranormal spirit is assimilating with the spiritual essence, the spirit.’

This guy is becoming an S-class talent.

I don’t know how I persuaded him of the paranormal spirit of the relic, but James successfully absorbed the relic I gave him and experienced great progress.

“Phew…”

James sighs.

I carefully examined its spirit with the original magical eye, and found out that it had not acquired all of the supernatural powers of the paranormal spirit of the relic.

‘Just 10. Only the extrasensory system remains.’

Are there any restrictions?

“I have finally reached the state of liberation… Now all I have to do is raise my spirit and transform all my superpowers to suit me…”

There was quite a bit of useful information in his mutterings.

Liberation? Is that the S-class name for the extrasensory system?

“Oh, that’s right. you stayed I will make the gains now.”

James felt my gaze staring at him, came to his senses, took out a stone from his pocket, imbued it with psionics and acquired abilities, and began to turn it into a relic.

“Acquired, what exactly is this superpower?”

“Don’t you know? I honestly doubted that you had already acquired it. First of all, if I were to explain this acquired ability… it could be called perfect memory, perfect imitation, and perfect adaptation. It’s a very complex ability, but… its biggest function is that it can reproduce what it has seen once with its own body. Even if it’s a superpower.”

“Oh… That’s a really good ability.”

Just by hearing it, I could guess that it was the skill I needed.

“And this acquired ability is one of the means to achieve multi-system specialization. I don’t know the details because I’ve never learned them.”

” Indeed, it is an ability that can be called a master piece.”

I nodded after hearing what he said, but at the same time, a question arose.

How does this guy know that?

Considering that the Inner Circle used this relic as a means of experimentation, I don’t think they thought it could be absorbed.

There must be extraterrestrial refugees in the Inner Circle, but compared to them, the information is too low.

Is there something hidden from him?

I heard from the oracle that this guy is a descendant of Alexio…

I asked one question, wondering about the guy’s identity.

“What is your purpose? I think it has a completely different purpose from Inner Circle.”

“Me? I… All I want to do is give a blow to those guys called Menas.”

“Are you saying you want to become a revenge ghost? Well, that’s a better goal than the inner circle guys.”

“Revenge ghost? Kkkk… Ghost? It’s a ghost… That’s an interesting interpretation.”

James left those words and disappeared out of the house without saying goodbye.

That guy looks pretty suspicious too.

But it’s not the body, so I can’t hit it…

I don’t know what they’re planning, but I’ll leave it alone for the time being.

With that, I turned off my attention to him and looked at the relic I had acquired.

‘Hmm… I didn’t do anything suspicious with the relic.’

I began to absorb supernatural powers while checking that there was no tampering with the relic with my original magical eye.

My existing clairvoyance and clairvoyance have already been absorbed into the essence’s magical eye.

I put acquisition and possession into the empty space of paranormal spirit.

Originally, the empty space was left alone without even absorbing teleportation, considering whether to add future prediction or telepathy.

As the two abilities filled the empty space, I felt a violent change.

The mind and body became closely connected, and the mind became clearer.

Among them, the part that became particularly clear was memory. Memories of the past were felt as vividly as looking at a photograph.

Thanks to this, I was able to recognize in detail the contents of the memories that I had absorbed with Babel and buried in the corner of my mind.

However, this is just a side of acquired abilities.

What was real was complete control of the body and the confidence that any physical movement seen in the past was possible.

“If this is…!”

The special move of Seomdomunju that I saw in the past.

We tried to reproduce the extremes of movement.

Uineumjeolgi (意念絶技) – The arrival of the tomb (凌現刀來)

Without even wasting a single moment, the hand that was on the right was suddenly on the left.

I was extremely excited by this result and tried to recreate Jung’s group.

But this time it failed.

King Yung was unable to cast it properly even with the help of the supernatural power he acquired, as it was impossible to implement it with six arms and six melodramatic elements.

However, I was confident that if I used my telekinesis to move the weapon additionally or practiced a little more, I could even replicate the vision of the King of Yung.

“For me, this learning is much more useful than time manipulation!”

With this acquired supernatural power and essential magical eye, there was no vision I could not obtain.
