The events that led him to this room were beyond his understanding, and it started after he appeared in the middle of Mountain Range Rovero.
Arthur did not know how he t Gaia, but he could guess that Rexus had sothing to do with it. After all, the Spirits Sovereign also retained the mories of their eting in this tiline, but the previous Arthur had no way of telling.
There was a different life for Arthur Silvera in this world, and judging by how he looked, it was nonexistent because his Jerano Student ID said he was Alexie Linan in this world too.
"I am Alexie, once again," smiled Arthur as he stared at himself, naked in the middle of nowhere. "However, if I want to fit into this tiline, I need to understand what happened to ."
This tiline did not have a fallen Ellen, who betrayed him to help her mother. Arthur needed to make sure that Ellen never needed to fall into the darkness to save her mother.
His plan was extensive, and the person he chose as his proxy was not his alter self but Oriole. The clubmate was the best person to influence this tiline properly until Arthur fully awakens his mories of the previous tiline.
Arthur was the sole person who retained all of his mories, to their smallest details, from the previous tiline. There were others that he chose to know of what happened, but the rest were incapable of fathoming nor accepting a drastic change like this.
"I hope they would understand my reasons," muttered Arthur with sadness as the wind blew the ashes over the land. "The Rise of the Creator, huh?" he smiled as he rembered what Gaia said to him.
His current state was not how he thought he would return to Earth, but it was the ideal outco. The calamities expected the tiline to go as expected, where Arthur would surrender his powers.
"What a diabolic plan," laughed Arthur as he took the first step after returning. "I sohow managed to break free, but now, I am in a world that I know nothing about."
Arthur was not worried, but the fact that the tilines rged made him unable to tell the outco. However, his scattered mories ensured that Arthur would walk the path of runes until he t Gaia.

A notification appeared before him, and Arthur decided that it was ti to wear clothes. As he wore Jerano's uniform, he savored the feeling of wearing clothes with his own two arms.
Then, Arthur took out the ring that was lighting up with runes. It was given to him by Jerano to communicate with others, among other functions. But unfortunately, the dialer was a na that he could barely rember.
"Julia Vinera," read Arthur with a frown. "Ah, yes. Julia is the youngest rune-master in this world. I rember hating her for siding with that pig, but now it's just laughable."
Arthur watched the lights go off as the call ended, and he was relieved. Then, a ssage popped up.
"Answer, or you are fired."
Arthur blinked his eyes with confusion and watched as she called again. It seems he did have other reasons to hate her. After a sigh, Arthur answered the call.
"Alexie," she said with displeasure. "Are you sick of the runes departnt and want to be expelled? I tried to reach you for days!"
"I had a different project to work on," answered Arthur flatly. "Tell , what do you need?"
"...you dare act disrespectfully?" she seed taken aback by his answer, and Arthur realized that his manners changed during his trip in Alka. "I need you here in an hour. Co over to my room."
After that, she closed the call. Arthur was confused about why she would even call him when he was nothing but a delivery man in the logistics departnt.
This proved that this tiline was different, and Julia was sohow his superior here. Therefore, although Arthur didn't know he wouldn't have the mories of this life, he still had a lifeline to facilitate his transmigration.
Arthur looked for Oriole's na in his contacts and opened the profile, and it took him a mont to see the changes. This ring can dial people outside of Jerano, but Oriole was registered in the ring as a student.
"It seems you used the knowledge I gave you well," smiled Arthur with pride. "And this also ans that he knows enough about . However, does he know that I am Arthur Silvera?"
Nonetheless, Arthur called him, but Oriole did no answer. Then, after a few attempts, Arthur gave up and decided to head back to Jerano for now before he ruined anything.
However, the first thing he needed to do was go back to Kera. So, Arthur went back to the city using the train, even though he could teleport there because he needed ti to stabilize the rge.
As he reached the city's periphery, Arthur stared at it with amazent. Of course, his city was not large, but seeing it doing so well after witnessing its destruction made the current scene breathtaking.
He witnessed the sa scene after awakening when his blood boiled for adventure. Arthur was full of ambitions to find his father and bring him back at that ti.
Now, however, things cannot be more different. His aspirations to find his father turned into the fear of ever eting him. Arthur did not know if he hated his father, but he did not want to see that man anymore.
The train rolled on the rails as Arthur looked inside at the tired adventures. Mountain Range Rovero was still the safe bet of adventurers, even though a portion of it has disappeared. Furthermore, there was no undead here anymore since Ellen was behind that.
Arthur stared at the screen inside, which was showing a news broadcast. The reporter was one he knew from before, and he was known for the giant mole on his chin.
"We are here today again with none other than the great researcher, Alfredo Erza, who once again claims that there is life in Alka."
The words made Arthur snap his eyes in surprise. Alka's na and situation were unknown to the public, but this seems to have changed in this world.
"Ahem," smiled the old researcher. "Almost a year ago, the Great Epiphany descended on our world, carrying knowledge and scenes that we never knew. Among the many geniuses who awakened these mories, a lot of them report seeing scenes from a different world that is less advanced than ours and far more brutal."
"And in your latest study, you gathered statents from the geniuses, correct?" asked the report with fascination.
"Indeed," nodded Alfredo. "The truth was nothing but a rumor before after the Great Epiphany, but now, we have evidence to believe that there is indeed civilizations behind the gates."
"And how co we never ca to et any of them?"
"This originates from the location of the dungeons and the gates themselves in Alka. It seems the dungeons are in areas that are fraught from monsters and far away from those civilizations."
"That is horrible," the reporter backed away. "We are separated from our brothers by armies of monsters?"
"Haha," laughed Alfredo as he leaned forward on the table. "You see, great audience, the real monsters are not those behind the gates, but the humans on the other side. Civilizations lead to war, which raises the question of whether we need to prepare for dinsional war."
Those on the train seed numb to the news, and so of them were even asleep. Arthur stared at the screen with amazent, wondering how humans could destroy themselves given a chance.
There were powers in Alka that not even Arthur dared to underestimate, including the calamity vessels. However, it seems his rging the mories, known as the Great Epiphany, beca a warning about civilizations in the other world.
"This world is different than before," sighed Arthur as he watched the train enter the station. "And it seems that I caused a lot of these changes."
Arthur got off the train, and he walked toward the portal. His feet stopped as he turned to look in the direction of his ho, wondering if he would find his family there.
However, Arthur did not feel like he could see them now, and not to ntion that Julia was texting him continuously about coming over. That was why he opened his ring and entered the chatroom with Oren, and he found that his brother had sent him a picture.
It was a picture taken by Selena for the two of them, and Oren was panicking about how Selena held him closely. Arthur blinked his eyes because he saw them holding hands, too, which ant the two of them were together.
"It seems that he is doing fine," muttered Arthur with a smile.. "I will et the two of you later, but I need to know who I am in this world first."
