Primordial Soul's Rebirth

Chapter 49: CHAPTER 49 – The Villain.

When a person is under some kind of bind or restriction, every one of their moves could affect those restrictions and they have to take even a step with utmost care and thinking.

For example: - If our parents had banned us from getting out of the room, which can be called a bind or restriction, our every action could have resulted in a different kind of response from our parents.

Let's say you were playing games in your time inside the room, they would simply say – you just want to waste time, right? Your ban is increased for another day.

If you were to study with dedication, then they would come in and say – good boy, you don't need to stay in the room now, you can go out and play.

If you were to just idle around and do nothing, then their response would be – you could have used your time to do anything productive.

Nothing else, they would not increase the ban, but they would not be happy as well.

That's an example of there are many such cases and one such case is the restriction placed upon you by time.

When someone or something had tampered with the law of time, then it would behave in a different manner around them.

If you were to use the time element more than it is permitted, then it places a restriction on you, or you could simply say the law of time keeps an eye on you.

The time law around the said person would be moving in a specified manner, a way that needs to be followed so that the timeline remains the same.

That is what Alex saw around Argon when he saw him with his All-seeing eyes and that much was enough for him to know that Argon was either from the future or the past.

Alex could tell that Argon was most likely from the future by the way he lived till now. Alex had read a thing or two about the world's strongest raider and he knew what had happened.

He could already guess that the time Argon turned into a new leaf was probably the time he came back from the future.

It was also likely that whatever happened in the future was not something easy to deal with since Alex could tell that by creating an empire, Argon was simply gathering forces. Forces for something he knew was going to come or going to happen.

Alex could easily tell that Argon had already done many things that were different from the original timeline and the one that changed many would probably be the one where his nature changed.

The Hart family had its influence all over the world and by changing the base working of the family, he had already changed many things all over the world and that would have already created many butterfly effects.

However, it was not hard to tell that it was something necessary to do for the things he wanted to achieve.

When Alex saw the look of surprise on Argon's face when Argon looked at him, Alex was able to deduce some more things, but he needed to confirm those things.

So, he continued walking with Ann and Alice along with Noctura who was still on his shoulder, and moved towards one of the compartments allotted for the top-tier guilds.

In the Auction Hall, there were many seats for people to sit but there were also compartments with thick glass covering them.

Those thick glasses made it impossible for the one outside to tell what was going on inside, though the same cannot be said from the other side.

'Who is she?' This was the first question Alex asked Sophia as he walked with Alice and Ann towards the compartment, completely ignoring the other two people sitting in one of the compartments other than Argon's.

(Argon was also sitting in the compartment it's just that the All-seeing eyes passive effects could easily see through those glasses, that is why Alex could observe Argon and the lady's expressions)

[She is someone from another World.] Sophia replied as she knew that Alex was talking about the lady sitting beside Argon.

'How did she get here?' Alex asked again.

[She made a contract with the guy beside her, and that contract enables her to go wherever the guy goes, and that is just one of the benefits of that contract.]

Sophia briefly explained to Alex what it was, and she was ready to explain it in detail if Alex asked.

'She can even time travel along with him, right?' Alex asked even if he already knew the answer.

[Yes, but what you're thinking is not what had happened.]

Sophia spoke softly as she could guess what Alex was thinking, after all, if someone of her caliber could not guess what an SSS-ranked person was thinking then what's the use of her being so strong?

'Oh? What do you mean?' Alex was not in the least offended by her words instead his tone was curious.

[It was not her who came back in time together with the guy, she was the one who used her power to make him travel back in time.] Sophia spoke as she looked at the lady and Argon.

'I see…...' Alex started amending the plot that was forming in his head about what had happened.

'Does he know the future me?' Alex suddenly as he still remembered the look of surprise on Argon's face as if he found something unexpected.

[Yes and No. He knows the future Alex or the person who was supposed to be Alex, but he doesn't know you.

As I have told you before, the system replaced you with the soul that was supposed to take over Alex's body.

And Argon guy knows about the possibility where you were not Alex, neither he nor anyone else can know your future or tell what your future is going to be.]

'Oh…' Alex took some time to digest the words and he could already guess where this was going.

'Wait, what do you mean that no one can look into my future part.' Alex suddenly questioned.

[You are not a being bound by time or any other element, which makes your future unpredictable and uncertain, which can only be discovered and never predicted. That is all I can tell you for now about this.]

Sophia said the last line in a low tone, but it was not low enough that Alex would be unable to hear it.

'It's all right, I was just curious.' Alex shrugged inwardly clearly showing that he was not disappointed or something for not getting more explanation.

[Hm.] Sophia just hummed in acknowledgment.

'So, is he like the Villains that the MCs in the novel or manga have to defeat right?' Alex asked as he could already tell that much.

The backstory Argo had was probably very dark or he would have lost his everything to someone in the timeline he had lived so now he returned for revenge while also saving and gathering people on his side to face something that was going to happen in the future.

Now this plot is something that either the protagonist or antagonist of the stories have. But Alex was sure he was an antagonist because of two reasons.

First – Alex knew that he was the protagonist of this world.

Second – No protagonist will be this strong from the start as Argon was really the strongest on the planet. (Not considering Alex in the equation)

For the second point, some will interject by saying that Alex is also a protagonist with absurd strength, but don't forget that Alex is an exception.

Alex right now was not supposed to be the protagonist, he became the protagonist because the world declared him as such.

The protagonist was supposed to be someone else and if that someone had become the protagonist i.e.: taken over late Alex's body, then he would have started as a C ranker or worse as a D ranker, after all, that guy was someone who was just a step away from his death bed.

[Yes, he was supposed to be the hurdle that the heavens chosen needed to overcome before he could fulfill his role in this world.]

'His bloodline is also something he got from the lady, right?' Alex had this last question that he needed to be sure of.

He had already checked what bloodline both of them had and both of them had the same bloodline. The only difference was that Argon had a low concentration of the bloodline while the lady seemed to be the one who granted Argon the bloodline.

This meant that she was the real owner of the bloodline mixed with the human blood inside Argon.

[Yes]

'I see, thank you for clearing my doubts.' Alex spoke while smiling inwardly.

[It's my job. It was not something that hard anyway, you could tell these things as well, you just need to get stronger.]

'What do you mean?' Alex asked while opening the gate to one of the compartments and entering it along with the girls.

[I can't say much as these things need to be discovered by you, but I can tell you that any or all of your unlocked abilities are much stronger than you can guess.]

Sophia spoke mysteriously which caused Alex to laugh inwardly.

It was the first time he felt someone trying to play a mysterious role in front of him as every time he was the one who did this role.
