Chapter 23: You And Lynn Had Adapted In This Lawless World
"I can indeed do anything I want in the simulation. Even if I cause the human race in that world to be extinct or live a life of debauchery and raping every beautiful girl I see, in the end, I can just kill myself and reset the world again."
Alister knew that what the self in the simulation had said was right. After all, even he was well aware of it, let alone the self in the simulation whose mindset and knowledge were the same as himself.
It was one of the advantages of the world travel simulator system that Alister had discovered. With it, he could be unrestrained and free as he did everything he wanted in the simulation since even if he made a mistake, it wouldn't be the end.
Even if the world in the simulation had been fucked up by him, just slashing his sword at his neck would reset the world and return things to where they began.
It was one of the reasons why Alister had no remorse for killing anyone. Of course, even if it was in the real world, if his life was threatened, Alister wouldn't hesitate to eliminate those who threatened his life.
After acknowledging the words of the self in the simulation, Alister continued the simulation.
[When you listened to Lynn's guess, you shook your head and corrected, "No, my second superpower is not controlling zombies. It is none other than mind control. Controlling zombies or even humans is nothing but one of the many abilities of my mind control superpower."]
[Under Lynn's astonishment, you proved your point as you used your mind control superpower against the zombies. The zombies' bodies were crushed but your mental power as their body levitated a meter above the air and twisted.]
[As if that wasn't enough, you further exerted control on your mental power, and the zombies were further crushed and compressed into a sphere. Such a gruesome sight was witnessed by Lynn and she couldn't help but look at you in surprise.]
["As expected of my boyfriend. You have become too powerful!" Lynn couldn't help but praise you. She knew that your air manipulation superpower alone was cheating as it was very versatile yet your mind control superpower seemed to have more terrifying skills!]
["We can't remain complacent yet. I might be powerful, but there might also be someone more powerful than me. So we need to become strong enough until we are assured that we are the strongest!" Even after becoming the strongest on the surface, you dare not become arrogant.]
[You know that you might be the strongest on the surface, but who knows if the water of this world was too deep and the real strongest was hiding deeply in the world?]
[But you weren't that worried. Even if something goes wrong, you can just keep on dying and trying until you succeed. That's where your confidence lies in.]
[After you showed off your mind control superpower to Lynn, you know that you and Lynn didn't have any more purpose to stay in the dormitory so both of you went to the exit and left.]
[With your mental perception, you know that the survivors in the girl's dormitory were overjoyed that you had eliminated the zombies in the hallway. But, you didn't have any plans of letting them go.]
[You aren't afraid that the secret of your second superpower will be exposed. Even if your regressor identity was exposed, you weren't afraid as well. After all, even if they know, they won't know after the world is reset again.]
[In order to ensure that there wouldn't be many mistakes in this current simulation, you decided to eliminate all of them. Even if those survivors from the higher floors were innocent, what does that have to do with you?]
[After you and Lynn left the girl's dormitory, before those survivors could leave their dormitory room with joy, the girl's dormitory collapsed as you had used your mental power to destroy the walls of the building.]
[As if that wasn't enough, you use your mental power to compress every debris and mangled corpse into a sphere. You are now more assured that the survivors in the girl's dormitory have died.]
[Lynn had witnessed all of this but she turned a blind eye to it. Even she could accept you killing and sacrificing her, so how could she even care about the lives of others?]
[Not only you but even Lynn's hands were stained with blood. The number of evolved zombies and human awakeners that Lynn had eaten in the previous timeline was no joke.]
[Perhaps in this world filled with lawlessness, you and Lynn had long adapted to this world and have been indifferent to the lives of other humans. Aside from each other, the lives of others were worthless.]
[Looking back at the sphere of debris and corpses, you asked, "Lynn, do you have any friends who live here? Like, did I kill any of them?"]
[In response, Lynn replied, "No, I don't think I have any friends to begin with. They are nothing but a bunch of fakers who smile and act friendly to me, but I am well aware that they had talked behind my back."]
[Lynn added, "They are jealous that I am the top student as well as the most beautiful girl in the school. After all, the crushes of those bitches might have fallen in love with me. It's no wonder that they would hate me and talk behind my back."]
[You noticed Lynn's sadness. Perhaps, before you met her, she hadn't met anyone whom she could deem worthy of her trust. It might also be the reason why she had offered everything she had to you after you accepted her, in hopes of you reciprocating her feelings.]
[Maybe she didn't want you to worry about her, Lynn joked, "Oh, I have remembered. In this timeline, you had become the Sword Prodigy, and with your handsome appearance and achievements in swordsmanship, you had garnered a lot of fan girls and those you had killed in the dormitory might be one of your fans."]
[You chuckled, "How ironic. The Sword Prodigy rarely uses his sword."]
[After lightening up the mood, you and Lynn left the school.]
