Chapter 183: Dilemma? No. (1)

Her parents were dead.

Nejire couldn’t believe her own eyes as she looked at the puddle of blood.

Tears finally gathered on the corner of her eyes as her anger calmed down slightly.

Her eyes grew red, becoming wetter each second before her vision became blurry, witnessing the aftermath of her parents’ death, she let silent tears fall down.

She regretted telling Neji to get them out of his storage dimension, she regretted not being strong enough to protect them, she regretted being unable to even take revenge.

She regretted far too many things.

Which caused an absolute urge of revenge to bloom in her heart, looking at Ujir, at Nawab... as the purple haired woman floated in the air, she could only hope her little brother would take revenge for her, for himself too.

Because she was weak, and she couldn’t do it herself.

Sighing, she wiped her tears and slowly made way to Momo who had gone unconscious with her eyes open.

“….”

And here they thought they were strong.

——

“I apologise, but I cannot allow you to kill her.”

Nawab’s lavender hair floated in the air like the waves of a purple sea. While the other woman, Ujir, was in her hands, she looked down at the ground with a whisk of natural pride but unnatural… sadness in her eyes.

She wasn’t supposed to feel sad here. Then why?

Neji was confused.

“It wasn’t intentional, I apologise. In normal circumstances, I would never have allowed anyone to kill my parents-in-law.” Nawab, the nameless one, said. “I simply couldn’t communicate with her while being within the explosion, even though I could still see her actions.”

Parents-in-law?

“Is that so?”

Neji’s question was calm, his voice rippling, as he observed the woman while being on guard.

The speed she moved at a moment ago, his eyes barely caught it.

She was fast.

Really really fast.

But looking down, at the puddle of blood that belonged to four people, two of them which were his own parents, looking at his broken sister, his unconscious girlfriend and his confused maid, Neji couldn’t care less about Nawab’s absolute speed.

He wasn’t in the mood to care. He couldn’t even feel the actual sadness that he should be feeling at this moment… That was so very infuriating. Funnily enough, even that “infuriation” got washed away in a matter of seconds.

[Rash emotions, unsuitable for this extreme situation, detected. Gamer’s Mind is taking action.]

A part of him believed asking the system might allow him to feel the emotions again, but the system notification was correct. This wasn’t a moment for rash emotions.

“I asked, is that so?”

“It is…” Nawab replied. “Though I must say I expected you to feel slightly more [Sadness] at this moment, or is this some sort of magic spell you’re using to control your emotions?”

Neji was suddenly surprised.

Those words meant Nawab knew about the existence of magic somehow, and also the fact that he could use it. This also meant she had a quirk (or some other way) to sense his emotions.

Gamer’s Mind didn’t stop her from that. Neji guessed it was only natural since otherwise, any [Empath] type power user will mistake him for a robot, which might not be a good thing.

But none of that mattered.

Nawab’s subordinate killed his parents, so that subordinate needed to die. Same with Nawab too, but it wasn’t because of revenge- he wasn’t the type to blame the parent for something the child did. Nawab simply needed to die because her powers were needed for him to survive.

“I am not in the mood for a conversation.” Neji said. “Gently hand that woman over, she needs to die, but I believe the quick death I was about to give her doesn’t suit her. Hand her over, and you fight me instead.”

“….” Nawab sighed. “You want to fight me, hun?”

“Hun?” That was a word Neji didn’t know could anger him so much. Was it because of the person who spoke the word? Most certainly. “Fuck off.”

Neji kicked the ground, his glossy white tail lashing behind him as he launched himself in the air, towards Nawab, only to pass through her as she had already left the spot.

“I am sorry, give me a second.” The woman said in a gentle tone, but turning around and looking at her….

The scene Neji saw wasn’t so gentle.

Ujir, from Nawab’s hand, melted- decomposed- broke at an atomic level- and turned into a wave of red energy which was devoured by Nawab in an instant.

What just… happened?

There was a change in Nawab’s stats too.

Tier 11.

That was big, but that wasn’t horrifying. The horrifying part was that she became “merely” Low-Tier-11 after absorbing a High Tier-8 person. How much of a gap was there in each tier for her to only level up this little? Or was there a low absorption rate for this stuff??

This made Neji weary. He mustn’t be so rash, he needed to check her quirks first.

He needed to be careful around this woman.

So he did.

‘Observe!’

[Name: The Nameless One | The One with Thousand Names

Titles: Main Character | Limit Breaker

Age: 203 | 707

Tier: Low-11

Likings: Neji, Neji, Neji, Neji, Neji, Neji-…..

Disliking: Anyone else other than her that Neji likes, except for his parents.

State: Mildly angry at Ujir, but ultimately knowing it’s her fault she didn't specify her orders, but she tries to justify it since she didn't assume Neji will take his parents out from his pocket dimension-]

‘Ok, first- how did she know about the “pocket dimension”?!’

Neji was confused and slightly worried,

Second, why were her likings and dislikings like that? She seemed to be a yandere, but for what reason?! They had never met before.

Third, why was her age like that…? That was confusing too.

Finally,

Titles. Neji only saw the Main Characters have a title, and they only had one, but this woman had two of them.

He naturally focused on them and found the Main Character's title as nothing more than he expected.

[Main Character: The world has chosen the bearer of this title as its Champion. The bearer’s luck and fate have been refined, and the bearer is more likely to experience “fateful encounters” more than anyone. In addition, the bearer might sometimes receive direct help from the World’s Will.]

That wasn’t anything special. But the next one indeed was special.

[Limit Breaker: The weirder is a limit breaker, unrestrained by the restriction of the universe as she can keep growing. Such is why she can reach Tier-11, even though the World’s Limit is Tier-10. Her quirks can also break their limits to achieve levels that no other person in the world can.]

That was shocking. A Limit Breaker in a world like this… But how in the world did she even gain this title?? This seemed unrelated to the WoW, or Izuku and Mirio should also have had them as well.

Nevertheless, assuming her quirks might have the answer, he focused on her quirks.

[Quirks-…..]

The list of the quirks was huuuuge. There weren’t just dozens, not hundreds, but thousands of quirks. 

That was bullshit if he ever saw one.

Fortunately, his system sorted them in a High-to-Low level descending order, so the higher-level ones were at the top for him to be careful about.

Careful, he realised, was a big word here. This woman was a cheat.

Three quirks caught his eye like glue amongst the countless other strong quirks in her possessions. The first two were fine, although still quite very bullshit, but the last one… left Neji speechless.

[Thunder God - Level 13: The main quirk of ‘The Nameless One’.

-Grants her the ability to create, control, and manipulate lighting to a great extent. She is also able to think faster and achieve “Lightning Speed”.]

[Queen Bee - Level 13: Grants the user the ability to multiply herself to create clones called “Bees”. The clones are to be loyal to her, always, without exception. However, they can have their own mind and consciousness, and even fake memories- as long as the user wishes. Usually, a “Bee” wouldn’t have a soul, but that might not be true if they are greatly influenced by something other than their creator.]

She also had a quirk named [Quirk Transferer] which meant she could give her “Bees” any of the thousands of overpowered quirks she had.

But that wasn’t the point. 

The point was the level of her quirks.

Limit Breaker seemed to be at work here.

At last, as Neji’s eyes fell on a certain quirk… he froze. 

He stood still.

He also realised why her age was so weird.

It was a quirk that wasn't high levelled, but was still put in the front- as if to show off.

[Regression - Level 3: A quirk that lets the user Regress back in time, entering a different timeline and starting her life anew from her birth. The level of the quirk signifies the number of regressions that the user has gone through.

—Note: Can only be activated once the user is killed.]

Regression.

Third turn.

Meaning this was her fourth life.

Her age made sense now.

So did her thought process.

Even though this quirk didn’t make sense. This didn’t belong in this verse, something as broken as this.

Either way, this meant… she had met him, Neji, in her previous lives, and she also seemed to love him.

From her likings, she seemed to love him a lot.

“Oh, are you observing me now? I see. Do you finally realise who I am, my love?”

Suddenly…

“I…”

Neji was in a dilemma.
