Apocalypse Cheater

[: 3rd POV :]

The last words muttered by Sasha had changed the entire course of her fate.

Sasha, lying on the ground with her life hanging in the balance, felt an inexplicable surge of energy coursing through her body.

However, her consciousness had fainted and the last sensation she felt was a warm feeling.

The green bulbs of light that enveloped her seemed to possess a mysterious healing power.

Wounds and injuries that moments ago seemed fatal started to close, and vitality returned to her weakened form.

It was strange considering that she didn't possess any healing powers.

Yet at this moment, the unfolding events took an even more unexpected turn.

A series of notifications appeared before Sasha.

However, she had already lost consciousness and she couldn't be aware of the strange event she had caused.

[: Ribbon of Fate has been activated :]

[: Analysing the current situation has been completed and 100% of Mana has been consumed :]

[: Temporarily Borrow from a different timeline has been completed :]

[: Time duration for temporarily borrowed fate will last for 10 Seconds :]

Sasha, who had been in a deep slumber, suddenly opened her eyes.

At the same time, she unleashed a burst of aura that seemed to emanate from within her.

However, the one who awoke wasn't the Sasha everyone knew.

There was a strange transformation, a subtle yet familiar alteration in her presence.

"Hm? Where am I?" she questioned, her voice carrying a sense of curiosity.

Confusion lingered as she continued,

"Why...am...I...in this place?"

"Wasn't this place destroyed...thousands of years ago...?"

"Why am I even in this place that I shouldn't have set foot in...?"

The strangeness of her surroundings puzzled her, and a touch of uncertainty crept into her tone.

As she observed her surroundings and analyzed the situation, a revelation dawned upon her.

"Ah...I finally understood..."

There was a smile on her lips, but it held a tinge of melancholy as if she finally understood what was happening.

There was a smile on her lips, but it held a tinge of melancholy as if she finally understood what was happening.

"So it's the Ribbon of Fate"

"My ability had somehow been activated"

"But why now?"

"Why would it be activated on this fate?"

"I'm supposed...to...

"It can't be that..."

"That my fate...this time had changed...?"

"No...impossible"

She had many questions, but the answers wouldn't come so easily.

One of the Ribbon of Fate abilities is that it allows the user to temporarily borrow the fate of their counterpart.

It was an ability that was ridiculously powerful she could even access her counterpart where she had become insanely powerful.

The ability that had granted her the title, Fate Seer.

However, the more powerful her counterpart is, the more consumption she will have to use.

Since the mana she has was too little, she could only access a counterpart of her future.

Even so, it was more than enough.

Moreover, this is the first time she had used it after her awakening, and the first time the ability had been activated in this era.

But at this moment, the Ribbon of Fate was the only way for her to survive, and Sasha was able to activate it.

"So...I...was saved...in...this fate as well"

Sasha touched her heart and she almost cried in tears.

"Thank you..."

No one knows to whom she was thankful, but Sasha from the future had an idea.

"I'm grateful that I met you..."

At the same time, the Ribbon of Fate began its countdown and Sasha had only 10 seconds to make a decision.

10 seconds to save herself, and the same amount of time to escape.

If she failed, then the consequences would be disastrous, and her life would end.

"Grr"

As the Red Goblin was ready to make another attack, Sasha had made her choice.

"I won't die yet, not in this timeline"

She clenched her fist.

"I will not repeat the same mistakes"

Sasha wasn't the same girl as before.

"I have a future"

She will live, and this time, she won't let the past repeat itself.

"I will show you the true power of Ribbon of Fate"

As soon as Sasha had called out its name, thousands of red strings connected to the Red Goblin appeared on her hands.

"Hmpf"

Sasha tore one of the strings and all of a sudden, the Red Goblin vomited with blood.

"Argh"

The Red Goblin groaned and its movement had slowed down.

Sasha's power allowed her to see the future from the strings, and the red string that she had torn was the Red Goblin's fate.

By doing this, Sasha had prevented the Red Goblin's attack, and even the future was no longer guaranteed.

"Is this the end?" She smiled.

"Of course not" She smirked.

There was more than just tearing a single fate string, and Sasha would use them all.

"This is the power of Fate"

Sasha wasn't afraid anymore, and with her confidence soaring high, she began to pull out the strings one by one.

Each time she tore a string, the Red Goblin's movement would slow down and its attacks would become weaker.

"You can't defeat me"

The more time passed, the more strings Sasha had destroyed, and the Red Goblin's body had already lost its strength.

Sasha wasn't going to spare him and she pulled one of the strings and the Red Goblin's arm had bent in a different direction.

"GAAAA!" The monster screamed with pain.

Sasha wasn't affected and she tore another string, and this time, the Red Goblin's left eye had popped out.

Sasha continued destroying the Red Goblin's fate, and the more fate strings she destroyed, the more the Red Goblin was being tortured.

"This is the power I have right now, and the same fate will happen to you" Continue your adventure at m|v-l'e-NovelBin

"You think you can defeat me? You can't even hurt me"

Sasha had destroyed more than half of the red strings and the Red Goblin, who was once strong, had now become weak.

"You think your level can stop me?"

"Hahahaha" Sasha laughed.

"Let me tell you, there's no one that could defeat me"

"Because I can control the fates"

"I'm the one who is in control"

"So why don't you just die for me"

With all the remaining fate strings in her hand, Sasha pulled it with force and the Red Goblin's skull was crushed.

Its body now was unrecognisable as all of its limbs were bent in an unimaginable direction.

The Red Goblin was defeated.

Sasha, who had won the battle, didn't rejoice.

She was exhausted and her stamina was completely drained.

Her powers were limited and she couldn't exert that much.

Moreover, the countdown was at its limit.

Sasha was ready to return to her normal self, and the time had finally arrived.

"Tch"

Sasha clicked her tongue, and at the same time, her consciousness was fading.

"It's too bad that I have to go back" She declared.

"Ha...I wish I could meet you once more in this fate...and tell you how much I loved you"

Sasha declared as tears streamed down her face.

"I regretted not telling you how much I had truly loved you...and yet, you had left me..."

Eventually, as time was up, the skill was deactivated and her body fell down to the ground.

"Cough, Cough"

Sasha coughed as her consciousness had returned, and she was once again back to normal.

"W-What happened?"

She questioned herself as she was surprised to see the Red Goblin dead.

She could hardly recall what happened, and her memories were hazy.

"Wait"

Sasha recalled that before she had fainted, she had activated the ability and was able to save herself.

'I don't remember how I was able to activate the ability...'

Sasha was confused, and the answer wasn't going to come that easily.

"For now...let's head back..."

Sasha wanted to rest and the fatigue had accumulated on her body.

However, she didn't forget to take the drops from the monster before quickly returning to her home.

It was already late and the players had all logged off, hence, it was time for her as well.

Moreover, she could sell her gains tomorrow and there was no rushing.

On the other hand, Daniel was seeing through from his shadow soldier was in confusion.

'What was that? I have never seen anything like it before

Even he who had experienced unimaginable and unexplained events had never seen anything like it.

'For sure that was Sasha...but it wasn't' He said.

Moreover, as he used his Samsara Eyes, he detected an unusual mana coming from Sasha.

The amount of Mana that he saw within Sasha at that moment was huge.

It was like the size of an ocean, but for some strange reason, that ocean of mana was limited by a gate.

With his Samsara eyes, he could even see strange strings that Sasha had used.

'What is going on?' He questioned cluelessly.
