Loser's redo: Transmigration in a novel

The requirement to become a god made a lot of sense in Zick's eyes.

every god had only a single kind of power, there has not been any case where they ever used any different power.

Information flew into Zick's mind as the world turned blank.

It portrayed how Zick from the first timeline joined the god's side initially. The gods themselves had invited him after the demonic war began. They were aware of his existence the moment Aeiron came in contact with Zick.

But never would have they thought that the one they were inviting was despicable through and through. It was no different than inviting a wolf into their house.

The god's wanted to take advantage of Zick and his identity as guardian of the dragon lord's daughters.

The Zick of that time had exhausted every possible way of strengthening himself. It had led to a fatal flaw, all kinds of energy inhabited his body!

Just as a soul can affect our body, which led to Zick having characteristics in his mana when he was just a high-rank knight. The body can affect the soul, the both are connected mysteriously.

The soul of the Zick from the first timeline was already affected by many kinds of power, his soul was exposed to them for just too long.

After finding the requirement from the gods' side, Zick was left in despair. He began looking for a way to discard these sources of energy, but it was not possible.

The main power source for him was — The element essence! The same as the snow essence that Zick found in the Lectic mountain range.

He was a grandmaster at the time, with exceptional strength and wits.

That was when he was invited by the giant's race.

Zick of that time already gave up on that timeline by then. He knew that nothing but servitude awaited him in the future.

Without any strength, he would be nothing but a servant to these two colossal forces. He could not match any of them.

He began working on how to restart everything again. So that he could redo his life again!

Fortunately, there was no need for him to fret too much. The gods would reset everything on their own accord.

Zick found out about the characteristics of the mist of annihilation. It could erase any kind of power in this world, as long as it's below God rank.

Still, if any god entered the mist barrier, they would suffer astronomical losses.

It was not possible to control this power, it would erase Zick's whole existence if he tried going near it.

Only a catalyst made of the world tree that was corrupted with impure mana and fed thousands of souls can have any effect on this mist of annihilation. It was because they both originated from the world's core.

Zick wanted to create this catalyst, but it was too late. The demonic race had already destroyed the elf kingdom and the world tree there.

Zick proposed his time reset plan to the giants. He abandoned the gods for a very simple reason — it was because the gods would be very opposed to this plan, though they will proceed with later on anyway.

The gods' would have no choice but to rewind the time after Aeiron lost.

What Zick asked of the giant race was very simple, to not start the war with humanity in the second timeline. And also spoke of the agreement of destroying the mist barrier.

.....

Deep within the water, memories kept flowing into Zick's mind as he closed his eyes again.

How Zick from the first timeline changed some of his memories also flashed in his mind.

With Aurel's help, Zick sent a remnant of his soul back in time, right at the moment when Noah's soul from the Earth flew into the body of Zick's body.

Noah's soul had no material body and was just a simple soul. The first timeline Zick easily manipulated his own memory, but he did not have any intention of wasting too much of his energy here, hence he just put an extra memory of the novel in his soul.

Zick's eyes slowly opened, immense clearly could be seen in his red-black eyes. All the dullness that was present in his eyes priorly vanished into thin air.

Zick had kind of expected it to be this kind of reason, they both were the same after all. As time went on, it was inevitable for both of them to have the same mindset.

'I should take care of the mist barrier for now, after I get the space core...' Zick's eyes narrowed, his body shot up like a meteor at once.

There was no mana in the surrounding area, the mist of annihilation did not allow it to get near to it at all. So Zick could not use magic to teleport either.

Getting back into the mist, red particles began exiting Zick's body. He was made aware of the right way of using the frenzied energy, which was made of an impure world tree.

The mist that came in contact with the red particle turned red.

All the mist that turned red swirled around Zick, following his will like a loyal bird.

This method of controlling the mist had a fatal flaw initially. The red mist would be in control of the 'will' within the frenzied energy too.

This would have led to something disastrous normally. However right now, the 'will' within the frenzied energy was just too weak.

Which made Zick use this method with no hesitation.

Finding the amount of red mist to be enough, Zick collected back the frenzied energy. The red mist around him did not harm his body in any way.

'The black miasma from the doll has already become one with my soul, and become a part of it. Surprisingly, it is very compatible with me. But I will still Have to remove the black miasma stored in my eyes.'

'No other kind of energy must inhabit my body, even the remnant of using snow essence must be removed. Thankfully, the eaten dragon part got tempered with my higher form of energy. If not, I would have had to discard them too.'

With resolution, Zick controlled the red miasma to enter his eyes.

An immense amount of pain assaulted him at once, but this time Zick did not even flinch. The experience from the first timeline and this timeline made him indifferent to pain.

The red mist began entering Zick's body through pores on his skin.

The red mist only affected the things that Zick allowed to, exterminating anything that did not mesh well with his higher form of energy.

In front of the red mist's destructive might, the different kinds of energy within Zick's body were erased with no resistance.

Next, Zick sent the red mist into his soul. Destroying some of his foundations that held any incompatible power.

Harming his soul like this would inevitably cause some of his potential as a god to drop. But on the other hand, his foundation would be immensely robust, facing no obstruction in his ascension.

Zick heaved a long sigh and began controlling his frenzied energy. This was also incompatible with him.

Fortunately, it was possible to merge it into his higher form of energy, Zick did just that, not wanting to discard the precious regenerative powers.

.....

On the boundary of the mist barrier.

"What's taking him so long?" Reikel folded his hand while speaking out loud. He was getting impatient, though he had a close relationship with Zick in the first timeline. He knew that trusting him was like serving his own head on a silver platter to a lion.

He still remembered the scene of Zick smiling as he mocked the gods on their faces, it was at the end of the first timeline.

When Zick backstabbed Aeiron with a smirk, the sword was drawn right through Aeiron's heart.

In the first timeline, Aeiron had grown to the level of a god himself, he was just a few steps away from breaking through the mortal shackles.

But in the end, he died at the hand of the person in whom he put a lot of his trust.

Reikel felt chills rise deep within, Zick had used him as bait and perfectly delivered the final hit. There was no hesitation in his actions at all, such unscrupulous behavior made him feel goosebumps.

Who in this world doesn't have anything that they want to protect?

Even Reikel cared a lot for the demonic race, but Zick had no such things. He could backstab his ally as quickly as the blink of an eye.

And change his face and smile the best moment just as quickly as flipping the page.

Zick was the embodiment of viciousness in Reikel's eyes.

The giant god was very patient, he had already waited for a long time. Waiting a few more hours did not make a change.

"He can't betray me, he doesn't have any other options." The giant god did not speak much, speaking two sentences, and he closed his eyes.

Shortly, changes began happening in the mist of annihilation. It began turning red mysteriously.

This change gathered everyones' attention, many giants smiled feeling that the moment for them lay waste to this world was nearing.

After a few minutes.

Instantly, the red mist began shrinking, moving toward a certain direction.

A figure was exposed as the red mist shrunk at a certain point. The red mist, which had thoroughly condensed, swirling around the man.

Who else could it be but Zick?

The red mist acted like a cloth around Zick. He first took control of the whole mist barrier, before erasing the frenzied energy. Therefore, he was still able to control the red mist.

Seeing the familiar figure of Zick, and his same old attitude of being cautious. The giant god smiled till the corner of his lips tore. The excitement of being able to get what he desired for so long made him go crazy.
