Chapter 351: SS-Level Time Wielder, Resisting Time Stop

Leon’s agility had once more increased tremendously, making him feel much faster than ever before, at least in this life.

But he didn’t stop there either, because though increased speed was definitely nice to have, he needed more than just that to win this challenge.

And so he pulled out his final hope: the [Minutes-Monster Essence] that had been sitting in his inventory since the first gate.

[Minutes-Monster Essence: The essence of time flows through this thing, perhaps consuming it will allow you to resist it slightly... or allow you to evolve your abilities.]

’Oh?’ Leon thought, noticing something different about the description.

That last part of the description hadn’t been there before when he first acquired it, but perhaps having the [Time] element now had changed how the system viewed it.

As soon as he read that new information, Leon consumed the essence without any hesitation, feeling his entire body change as his eyes turned completely white with temporal energy.

And after a few seconds of that intense transformation, feeling the raw power of time course through his veins and soul, something incredible happened.

Ding!

[This essence seemed to hold the power of the "Time Overseer’s" creation, which was fueled by its powers.]

[Your time-related abilities and affinity have grown tremendously!]

Ding!

[Your S-Level Sub-Talent "Time Affinity" has evolved into SS-Level "Time Wielder"]

[The essence of time favors you.]

Leon’s pupils returned to normal, and with a heavy breath of relief, he gazed forward at his opponent with renewed confidence.

"Alright, time overseer, lets end this once and for all right now."

"I don’t know what you just did there, player, but it won’t save you from my time stop ability," the figure laughed dismissively, "I enjoy seeing someone get confident before shattering their hopes though, so bring it on with everything you have!"

[Time Wielder (SS-Level): It seems like the very flow of time races around your soul, allowing you to control it given enough power, time-related abilities have a high chance to be nullified when used on you.]

Leon felt himself be much stronger than before after that evolution, and almost the entirety of the pressure he had felt in the [Time Tower] since arriving here completely disappeared from his senses.

One couldn’t deny the [Time Overseer]’s powers were still stronger than Leon’s own overall, since he had an SSS-Level talent related to time manipulation that had been developed over countless years.

But to think that Leon, which didn’t have any link to the time element before entering the [Time Tower] at all, now had an SS-Level sub-talent was absolutely incredible progress in such a short amount of time.

The [Time Overseer] likely didn’t expect that either, as he still seemed extremely confident in his ability to defeat Leon without any trouble.

But now, Leon’s expression was extremely calm as he faced his opponent, so much so that it was almost creepy to look at.

He lowered himself into a fighting stance, then with a steady dash that cracked the ground beneath him from the sheer force, he closed the distance between them in an instant.

The [Time Overseer] lifted his scepter as he stopped time once again, forcing Leon to stop right as he reached him mid-swing.

’I’m still affected by the time stop,’ Leon’s eyes narrowed as he analyzed the situation, ’But... I can actually feel it happening now in a way I couldn’t before.’

In contrast to before when he was completely helpless, his body’s resistance to the time stop was infinitely higher than it had been previously.

The time overseer avoided the attack before time resumed once more, and Leon, with his new incredible speed, already arrived in front of the figure again before he could react.

"Your speed increased dramatically, was that the items you used?" the overseer grinned with amusement, "How completely useless against my powers."

They repeated this over a hundred times, with Leon being affected by the time stop every single time and attacking as soon as it was undone.

And just like all the other times before, right as the [Time Overseer] felt his abilities get weaker due to repetitive use and exhaustion setting in, he decided to end it.

"Alright, time for another death," he grinned as he stopped time when Leon reached him once more.

The time overseer stopped time once again, then lifted his staff ready to unleash another wave of light to cut Leon’s body in half just like he had done before.

But this time, unlike all the others, was completely different.

Because now, after being hit by so many time-related attacks over the past "month", even though they were much stronger than his own powers, Leon had built up a resistance to them.1

He had been stopped in place, but his soul started to beat with temporal energy, and the threads of time began to unfold around him like a protective cocoon.

Leon felt that he could actually move only after a split second of effort and so, he acted on that feeling.

Fwoosh!

As the time overseer swung his attack down toward him, Leon actually managed to move while time was stopped to avoid the deadly strike entirely.

"What—?" the time overseer said, his eyes widening in complete shock.

SLASH!

And Leon swung his sword with all his might, hitting the time overseer’s face directly and cutting his mask cleanly in half down the middle.

Of course, the overseer’s constitution was simply far too high for Leon to hope to actually hurt him with the physical blow, but regardless, he had still technically "hit" him.

Meaning that he had completed the challenge successfully.

Ding!

[You have completed the "Time Overseer’s" challenge.]

The [Time Overseer] backed away as he got hit, holding his own face with his hands as if trying to hide it from Leon’s view.

He even let go of his scepter in his shock, which dropped to the ground with a clatter, and his entire body began to shake with what seemed like disbelief.

"You..." the time overseer gazed at Leon between his fingers, his voice trembling, "You managed to actually resist time itself, that’s impossible..."

"Yeah, now give me my reward like you promised," Leon said firmly, not wasting any time.

Leon pulled out the [Primordial Dragon of Chaos] egg from his storage space and dropped it onto the ground in front of him.

"Hatch this thing right now," he demanded.

It was only a few hours but since a month passed in the outside world, I wrote month
