That time I failed as an Author and got reincarnated in Tensura

Chapter 96: Fulfilled Duty

Mirai Pov

Once again, I found myself in the middle of a sea of void...my eyes open to the clear display, I just wanted for Manas : Fate to emerge somewhere around.

But no matter how long I waited, she didn't appear...my solitude was interrupted only by the loud, almost robotic voice that announced something.

My body felt stronger, warmer...more complete ? As if a missing piece was filled deep inside my soul.

Mirai : I was really fooled, I lost on every stage of this game...

I am aware of what transpired right before I lost consciousness, father...he forced me into an evolutionary sleep.

The only possible way for him to seal me away from action...i can't stop the situation from unveiling and the one that could be Manas : Fate hid somewhere out of my reach.

VOTW : (Forced evolution's condition are met, acquisition of awakened Hero egg- successful, all requirements are met-)

The voice went on, if a hero egg is akin to a small sun within one's soul...i could feel a second one opening up to me beside the first star.

This hero egg belonged to Dawn Arceid, to my father...I might value it even higher than my own egg...furthermore, this granted egg was already fully bloomed.
With just that alone, I felt like I had reached another peak...a level of existence I could only witness among the True dragon or my father himself.

VOTW : (Intervention from Manas : Fate, request to alter all evolution regulation to strengthen the Manas : Fate- permission granted.)

This might be the shortest evolution announcement ever, I didn't even have the strength to deny this outcome.

Manas : Fate simply reaped all the profit, evolution means new power...new skills, new ability, enhancement of one's body and soul, immunity to concepts or elements...

Yet none of that happened, and I could understand Manas : Fate's logic behind this...after all, I had already acquired most of the prominent advantages that evolution could grant.

My power also mainly comes from fate...so i didn't lose anything from letting her do it, still i felt lethargic at this new retrieved power.

Mirai : All of this is originally mine, yet I feel disgusted by it.

Flowing through my veins like an invisible yet tangible force, fate...I had recovered full authority over that element.

One that equaled if not surpassed that of time and space, the reason for my let down is precisely because I regained everything.

It means father lost that power...it was the only way to trigger the evolutionary sleep, a hero egg wouldn't be enough.

VOTW : (Full Authority over the Element of Fate is returned to individual : Mirai Averion, this will conclude this evolution.)

And here, it already ended...the voice shutting down, I couldn't know for how long I had been out here.

No, the evolution has already ended...right along with the Voice of the World, I should be able to go back now but no matter how I twist my senses, my body won't budge.

That can only mean, an external force is keeping me at bay...Manas : Fate, she must be controlling my body as she sees fit...

Mirai : Really, what a troublesome skill...

3rd Pov

Bounding back into the realm of fate, Dawn stepped on the cold transparent floor where his daughter laid peacefully.
