Climbing the Tower to Be a God With 10x Gacha System

"Have you gone mad?!" Chronos said suddenly, the anger clear on his face. He was in such an angry state that even James' expression turned to one of disbelief, he didn't know whether to be proud or sad that he could make someone as lazy as Chronos act in such a way. He was really filled with a strange feeling, he had no idea what to do.

James realised that he had indeed made a mistake, but he had no desire to stand by and do nothing.

"I can't officially tell them something that could happen to them, am I crazy? It's not my fault if this is how fucking time works," said James, and Chronos, hearing this, grabbed James by the suit he was wearing and pushed him against the wall.

"Look, kid. You don't seem the understand. The things that you have seen when you were in the stone, they are not real, they have never been." Chronos was angry and this was his most natural right.

"What do you expect me to do? What if something like that happens!? What are you going to do then?!" shouted James and Chronos, hearing this, put James down and continued his speech:

"Perhaps something like that has a huge possibility to happen in the future, after all, even though there is destiny there are still infinite possibilities. Yet, it is up to you to choose your way so you can end your journey with whatever you saw inside the stone or you can change it."

This time his anger seemed to have subsided, more like a state of anxiety.

"Time is a foolish thing to manipulate, you shouldn't do it, as I said even I can change small things in time, very small, and that is how I avoid the wrath of the tower and am protected by the laws of Chaos," Chronos added.

When James straightened his suit, he looked at Chronos seriously and then said, "Well, old man, then tell me, what should I do? What should I do when the future holds enormous dangers and there is only the tiniest possibility that the things I have seen could happen?"

Chronos looked at James with great curiosity and then spoke as if he thought he would regret this:

"When you go to the 20th floor, you will come across a temple, where players or users choose their second class. Look for my name there, choose me and a situation will arise where I can help you with time."

Hearing these words, James shook his head and asked, "You're going to train me?" as if he didn't understand what was going on.

Chronos looked at James in a rather annoyed way and said, "Yes, we will, we will start tomorrow, we will deal with this until you come back, at least you will get something before you go."

James shook his head as he heard those words, he could never pass up a chance to learn from the man of the hour himself.

"Since the purpose of this training is for me not to ruin everything, it's going to be a long one, I'm pretty confident about ruining things," James said, the smile on his face making Chronos want to punch him.

Nevertheless, the deal was done, James left Chronos and went back to Nemesis.

Nemesis smiled and realised that Chronos had just beaten James up a little.

"Are you alright?" Nemesis asked, to which James replied, "I feel as excited as the first time I saw you."

When Nemesis heard those words, she stopped sitting across from James and then moved to the couch next to him and snuggled into his right side.

When Nemesis put her head on James's shoulder, James held his breath tightly and didn't utter a single word, just waited.

"How do you do it, James?" Nemesis asked suddenly, sounding slightly upset.

"How am I doing what?" asked James curiously, Nemesis took a deep breath and then said, "How come you feel free enough to tell me that you can reach my grandad?"

James smiled when he heard that question and then lifted Nemesis' head off his shoulder and laid her on his lap. Nemesis took a deep breath as she looked at his face. Then James started to speak:

"I haven't been free all my life, maybe I fell in love with someone who didn't want me, wasted my life and got a second chance, I wish I could spend this chance to meet the person who gave me this chance. However, at the end of the day, it may be what I want most to enjoy being free." James said, Nemesis was about to say something when James stroked his hair and spoke again:

"You love me, don't you?"

When Nemesis heard this question, she nodded her head and answered yes to James. James smiled and said, "I admire you very much, the doors of love and love itself have just closed to me, but if you can wait, I would like to belong to you as soon as my heart opens again."

At James's response, Nemesis got up from his lap and sat down, then asked, "Does this mean I've been rejected?"

James smiled when he heard this and then said, "No, just give me some time. It's been half a year since I've been in this tower, there are still many things I can't get used to."

Nemesis, as if he could not accept these words, said, "You said on the first floor that you had already forgotten the woman you loved, can you not give me a chance? With the help of my mum, I can always come to you, I can be there whenever you want, can't you love me?"

James was stunned by this question, it was clear that he didn't think Nemesis was taking the matter too seriously.

Still, he wanted a clear answer, so he turned to Nemesis and asked:

"Why are you so in love with me?"
