Chapter 304 [Second Space]
\'Well. Since we are more or less lost now, let\'s try visiting her first,\' I thought as I stopped running and came to a halt.
\'First things First!\'

[Second Space!]
A blue-coloured gate appeared in front of me, that reminded me of the days I traveled in the post apocalypse. Brings a lot of nostalgia, to be honest.
"Now then. Let\'s meet her,"I muttered as I entered into the [Second Space], finding myself back at the world which was in a dimension of my own. According to Rhea, it was my personal space and the more I invest in it, the more I would be able to bring out the profits.
The land stretched green under the blue sky as a single giant tree came into view at a faraway distance. I could see the giant tree covering a huge portion of the sky, tall as a mountain. It stood there, providing energy to the rest of the land.

"You have returned? That was actually fast. I was expecting you to take at least a couple of years before you reach level 30,"a voice came from behind that felt more familiar than my own. It was sweet as a melody and was enchanting like the most refreshing drink.
Turning around, the white face of Rhea appeared in front of me. Wearing the same black dress as always, she looked at me with a smile as she moved closer to me. Her eyes focused on me. She moved in closer than her smile was getting more merry with each passing moment.
"I have a lot of questions,"I said as I moved in closer as I saw her reaching me and bringing her even closer with my hand. I held her very close to me. Her body touched mine as she placed her hands on my chest. Using one hand to hold her from behind and the other to hold her chin, I made her look deep into my eyes.
"I will answer all of them,"she spoke as she looked at me before she moved closer a little, her lips touching mine. It wasn\'t a deep kiss, but a simple one. I would love to continue where it is going, but what I wanted right now the most was answers.
I moved her head a little away from me as I spoke,"I saw you maintained a lot here."
The [Tree of Corona] has evolved quite a bit, and the number of Coronas I have right now is nothing to scoff at. I doubt it had happened all by itself, especially since the Dungeon was gone.
[Total Cronas: 756 Billion]
"Kind of. Had nothing to do in the meantime. You like it?"she asked with a chuckle and I nodded before speaking,
"Seriously though. The regression was the last thing I was expecting." I moved a bit away from her while I held her hand. Moving towards the giant Tree, I walked hand in hand with Rhea as I began my conversation.
She, too, started walking beside me as she answered my doubts.
"If I had told you, the system would have noticed and produced some other results. You probably have already seen \'Him\'. It\'s better to be prepared first than to jump, you know? Though you don\'t seem to mind it as much as I thought."
I nodded as I spoke,"If all in the end is going to return to the point where I am back to my old power with all the people which I hold dear standing right beside me, then I don\'t think I mind much about it."
It was true in a way. Except for Alissa, whom I still need to find, most of the people are already beside me. There are also Erina and Miya, but I will find all of them one by one too. If I am not wrong, either Miya or Erina is the 5th person who has regressed with me. She must be carrying her memories in the twisted reality as well.
"Well. I hoped you would look at that perspective. It would have been troublesome if you ended up getting angry at it,"she spoke with a relieved expression.
"Though it\'s kind of a mess with reality inversion and all,"I said with a bit of an awkward face. While I did get a chance to level up to 30 pretty easily, I still didn\'t like how everything got messed up. All those people, despite being close, still feel alien to me.
"Reality Inversion?"Rhea asked a bit confused, and I pondered a little before starting to explain the events that happened after the regression one by one. While in the beginning she calmly listened, her expression changed drastically once she heard about the changed Reality.
She looked at me with a ridiculous expression as she observed me for a while.
"You seem like you want to say something,"I asked as I stopped and she, too, did so as she nodded heavily.
"Aren\'t you a little too lucky?" She spoke as she looked at me carefully, deep into my eyes, trying to figure out something. Her dark black eyes were looking through my soul directly, but not finding much. She was even more flabbergasted as she took a step back.
"Lucky?" I asked.
"You probably don\'t understand, but the System is an external entity that doesn\'t really exist anywhere but everywhere. In other words, if you level up here, even if you kill the highest of the high gods, there will be no problem with the Lord of Fate since this reality doesn\'t exist,"She spoke in words that were still complicated to understand. And looking at my confused expression, she spoke again,
"Think of it this way. You can\'t kill anyone in reality because of strict laws, right? But what if you go into a dream that is strikingly similar to your reality? Will the killing affect reality? No. Now, what if there is a merit to killing? You can gain merit without actually killing anyone in your reality… it is something similar to that."
When she spoke that way, it became much more clear before she grabbed my hand and spoke, "Let\'s go… we are going to utilize this opportunity to its last drop."
Dragging me to the [Shop] section, much more excited than I was.
