"What?"

Since when did the system notification turn on?

All this time, I had never bothered to switch on the system's voice notification, so it should have been quiet. I hated it when some random noises filled my head, it just felt strange.

But after giving it a second thought, I thought that it might be useful for when I leveled up some things.

Being back in my body, I had a lot of questions about the scene I saw earlier.

ραпdα nᴏνa| сom What and when did that happen?

The kid resembled me, just that he had small stature. Then, Ember, her age was 14 years old when I saw her status screen. It gave me a sight that the memory was in the past.

Also hearing the kid say that he was my past self and I was his future self, it seemed the memory was my…Zio Varrez's memory.

So what I did right then was some sort of scrying to the past?

It seemed to be the case, as I had Clairvoyance skills. Just like what I knew about the power true ability was to see the past and future, not just an appraisal and detection skills like the system's description said.

I tried to piece together the puzzle of the scene earlier but there was something still missing to solve it.

'Ember Crimson…'

That's right. I needed to ask her about this.

I massaged my forehead. Sweats streamed down my face and back. When I noticed the scenery outside the window was already night, I stood up and showered.

'She looks different…'

Ember Crimson in the memory looked like a bright and cheerful kid, who upheld justice and hero's principle. It was different from what she looked like right now.

The rumor about her might be true. The thing that she had changed into a different person after experiencing a coma.

'Anyway…'

Then I recalled something.

'Why does the information from Clairvoyance look like Odyssey's?'

Back then, when I extracted information from little Ember and little Zio, the status screen that showed up looked exactly like the Odyssey system.

Odyssey system was Lux's exclusive system. Unlike the normal system that everyone else had, his was unique. His status screen checking was more detailed and included the [Hidden Stats] that was not shown from the other's system.

The Odyssey system also had a unique way of describing skills. It was a half-sentient system that was just like a companion and mentor. It gave quests, and every time Lux cleared it, he would be rewarded from the system.

'Huu…'

Standing in front of the mirror, I stared at my well-built body. It was not yet a perfect body for a man but no one would care about my body when I had this face.

"[Status]"

My status screen opened up.

There was no significant change to the stats, it was still the same as ever. The only difference from here was that my Clairvoyance had finally reached level 3.

'Recognition…'

It was a good skill.

I already knew the future but I did not know the past, especially my past.

'Those who forget their history are condemned to repeat it.'

Someone had said that line, but I forgot who they were.

'Simply learn from the past.'

The past and history were something that needed to be learned for a better future.

I stared at my reflection in the mirror. The pitch black, like a void in outer space, stared back at me. Water dripped from the tip of his wet black hair.

As I focused on my reflection in the mirror, a status screen that only could be seen by me appeared.

'As I thought…'

Since I couldn't use the Clairvoyance skill to myself directly, I had to use some mediates like a mirror or anything that produced a reflection. Focusing my eyes on my reflection and then boom, a status screen of me popped up.

It was more detailed than when I used the ordinary way. But of course, it was also more complicated to use it for myself, unlike using it for others.

'Feels like I have the Odyssey.'

It was not a bad feeling. Though the aftertaste of that memory still attached to my mind, knowing this upgraded Clairvoyance could do had slightly reduced the bitter feeling of that.

— L, listen future me… You must g, go and search for the Chrono dungeon… It could—

At that moment, I recalled the word of me in the memory said.

Chrono Dungeon.

It was one of the ancient dungeons that Lux had a hard time clearing.

Let me remind you that there were different types of dungeons in this world.

First was the rift dungeon, a peculiar dungeon that had formed as a result of a crack in space, which served as a portal connecting two worlds. Its shape was reminiscent of a dark, oval void, surrounded by swirling currents that rotate in a clockwise direction.

If the dungeon was left unattended, it would eventually undergo an event known as an 'Outburst', in which it would absorb enough energy from its surroundings to create a one-way gate through which the dungeon's inhabitants could pass into Earth.

To erase the dungeon from the surface, someone or a group must attack and defeat the dungeon boss, which will then reveal the dungeon core. Destroying the core would unlock a treasure room as a reward for the successful group that had cleared the dungeon.

If a group attacked a dungeon during its "Pre-Outburst" state, it may be easier to clear the dungeon because the magic circulation that typically maintained the mob monsters would be focused on preparing for the impending Outburst instead. As a result, the dungeon's inhabitants would likely only have a boss monster to defend the dungeon.

And ah, there was a difference between raiding the normal Rift dungeon and the Pre-Outburst. The environment and the treasure room.

The environment of a below <C-> rank normal Rift dungeon would typically a cave-like or labyrinth-like while the <C> rank above and Pre-Outburst Rift dungeon had manifested its environment and habitat. Such as the Fishman Dungeon which was manifesting to forestry and river environment, also a humid temperature too due to it undergo the Pre-Outburst state.

There was no treasure room in the Pre-Outburst as the reward for clearing directly came from the boss monster.

Next was the flash dungeon, the worst and dangerous dungeon, that occurred suddenly as a result of a gathering of magic molecules in space, causing an explosion in dimensional space and creating a dimensional gap that lasted only a few seconds, trapping and sucking those around the dimensional gap.

The appearance of the flash dungeon was unpredictable and couldn't even be tracked by the signal network that the Omega had set up, at least for now.

The Flash Dungeon had no boss monster or dungeon core. The only way to get out of there was to survive until the time ran out. What made this dungeon the worst and dangerous was that it gave no benefits even the ones who were trapped inside managed to survive.

However, this place was heaven for those who had knowledge of otherworldly materials. Heaven to gather and collect various materials for crafting, and if one was lucky enough, they would find artifacts and other equipment in this dungeon just as I got [Retro] and [Avatar Mask].

The third was the base dungeon, a dungeon that came to the surface and took over the area around it, becoming a field dungeon or red zone area for a long time where monsters and wild beasts would magically spawn over time. Usually in an inhabited area with dense magic energy such as a forest and mountain.

It was not like it would occupy the area permanently. Once the magic energy was depleted because of the monster spawning, the area would return to normal condition. Though, that would be useless for most people as there was nothing to be looked for in an empty area.

The Base Dungeon was the dungeon type that appeared the most. The appearance of this dungeon had reached thousands, scattered all over the world. Another term for the Base Dungeon was the hunting field; a place where people, presumably Enhanced could hunt monsters and sell monster parts for money.

Those three were types of dungeons that people had known about and ones that had appeared in this world.

But, there was another dungeon type that was yet to be discovered and even hadn't appeared in this world known as 'The Tomb'. Though it was called The Tomb, it wasn't a literal tomb or grave.

The appearance of The Tomb was magnificent.

An example of how magnificent it was, was the Chrono Dungeon. The translucent blue gate portal adorned with two great pillars soared high like a castle tower. On top of the portal, between the pillars was a clock-looking decoration with the numbers written in Roman numerals.

To reach that place, Lux had to cross the beautiful deep lake in a forest dense with magical energy in southern Europe. Just like a castle on the lake, that was how magnificent the Chrono Dungeon was.

The number of The Tomb appeared in the world was close to a hundred but only seven of them were cleared by Lux.

'...'

I stood frozen, I wasn't sure how long I was standing in front of the mirror.

As the reflection in the mirror changed to that of the kid–me in the past, I shook my head deliberately.

'That kid…'

I recalled the information that I was able to grasp from his status screen before I lost my connection to the memory.

'If that is in the past,'

Especially the information about his Clairvoyance skill, magic, and hidden stats.

'Why are his stats superior to mine?'

I saw it.

A glance at his magic stats being <A> rank.

Another glance at his hidden stats with overall being <B> rank with <S> rank potential.

Also, the information that I wasn't able to find on the current status screen in front of me.

'His Clairvoyance too…'

The skills information section that didn't exist on the status screen.

'...is already maxed out?'

You heard me right. That kid had his Clairvoyance skill on max level.

How was that possible? He told me that I was his future self but how come I only had my Clairvoyance in level 1 when I started?
