[Michael's POV]

In a serious voice, Klotho spoke,"but first. You must understand the meaning of changing fate. Close your eyes, kid." And hearing her voice, I closed my eyes before I saw… something that I never expected to see.

A world formed in front of me, a Universe being built from scratch, I was looking at one thing, forgetting what was not important, and remembering what was considered 'important'.

The Universe was born and then lived out its lifetime, before dying normally as it should have been. But then the scene reversed as I saw a man who was supposed to die on a certain day, got in contact with a power that changed his entire life.

He changed his fated death, saved billions in his planet, those billions thrived faster than ever as they grew up stronger with each eon. But sadly that wasn't a happy ending. Someone from those billions that were saved, gave birth to an anomaly.

That anomaly grew stronger and stronger, which led to a butterfly effect and destroyed that planet before its time, creating a chain that destroyed the entire universe in half the time that it was supposed to thrive for.

Next I saw the scene reversing again, this time it was focused on a blacksmith that was saved from its appointed death, who ended up creating a weapon that fell into the wrong hands after eons passed of its creation. Once again the Universe died much faster than before.

Next was about the fateful encounter between two people who should have never met, then it was about the people who didn't meet who should have met somewhere along the journey in their lives.

I was shown over a hundred scenarios, and in all of them there was something that was common, the interference between fate and destiny.

My eyes then opened up as I found Klotho standing in front of me with a slight smile as she continued,

ραпdα nᴏνɐ| сom "The Lord of Destiny, created the threads of fate to make sure that the universe as a whole gets to thrive as much as it should and is all the more careful making sure that nothing changes the fates of anything that is going to happen.

The examples shown to you were about what would have happened if there was no one to interfere in between the people who changed fates. But what happened was actually different."

I looked at her calm and serene expression as I looked at Aether who was torturing Ais as usual. Sensing me looking at him, he turned around and smiled as he waved his hands before returning back to his 'work'.

"Everytime someone changes their fate, the Lord of Destiny sends people to deal with him or her, making sure nothing goes wrong with the Universe. And trust me when I saw this Michael, never go against the Lord of Destiny. Anyone who has gone against him, didn't have a good end," Klotho warned me as she looked at me with seriousness in her eyes. Her cyan colored eyes observing me carefully while reading each and every behavior of mine.

"You seem to have some questions," she spoke as she observed me and I nodded before turning to Aether as I asked,"What comes under changing fate and destiny?"ραпdα `nᴏνɐ| сom

I have used [Time Reverse] so many times that I couldn't even begin to count, and [Time Rejection] is something that I used so many times to achieve feats that normally would be impossible for me. If changing fate and destiny comes under that then doesn't that means I am f*cked already?

.

"Explain in a bit more detail," Aether spoke as he observed me with a questioning look and after a bit of pondering, I told him about my adventures in my world. I didn't tell him about the [System] but… well, he just figured it out in a few words before he asked me to continue my story. I told him about a couple of powers that I used here and there.

After I told him the entire story, he just observed me as he turned silent and turned at Klotho. I saw the expression of Klotho turning confused as she observed Aether. A strange silence filled the air as they both kept looking at each other before Aether turned towards me.

"You want to know if you are in danger after using those powers or do you want to know if you will be in danger after you keep using those powers of yours given by that System of yours?" He asked a bit curiously and I answered honestly,"Both of them, actually."

"Well, for the first question, no. Not really. You are more or less safe even after using all those time changing powers. It's more like this, Michael, that, even if it feels like you have changed the future, it was more like you brought the future to the point it should be. Like, rather than changing the timeline from good to bad, you turned it into bad to good. So basically you are fine," Aether pondered a bit more as he looked at my still worried face and chuckled and spoke,

"Don't worry, dude. If you were really bad, the Fate Lord would himself have greeted you in person and vanished your existence for changing the things he set as right. He really worked hard to create a 'perfect' future, didn't he?"

I nodded at his answer with a bit of tension still remaining in my eyes.

"So, does that mean that I can use my powers in the future, right?" I asked as I looked at him. I still have to save my parents and without those powers, I might end up becoming handicapped a lot.

"There is another hypothesis for this, but I don't know if you will be happy to listen to that," spoke Aether as he smiled at me. This time it was kind of a sad smile as I nodded and he sighed before asking,

"Your powers and all are time related, aren't they?"

I nodded at him before he continued

"Then another strong possibility is that all you are going to do, or perhaps everything you did, is going to be all for naught. The time will reverse back to a point where all you did never really happened. That's one of the things that usually isn't that common, but not out of the checklist."

His eyes looked serious and I wanted to say something, but words failed to come out of my mouth. This was a bit… overwhelming but for some reason I felt this was a bit more… accurate to the truth. If all this is going to change back to zero, why would the Fate Lord worry about anything? I…

"I felt a strange presence on you. A powerful magic… two presence actually. Other than the one you already had. Why don't you ask your companions about it? Maybe you will find a solution to it?" Aether spoke with a smile as he looked at me and this time it was more of a genuine smile than a sad one.

I nodded at him and he too did the same.

"Although it's all but a speculation. Maybe nothing like that would happen. For now you should keep on doing what you were doing. It wouldn't be that hard, now would it?" He spoke before moving towards Ais.

"Will it be really fine? I don't want to jump into a pool of blood only to burn myself completely? My goals aren't that grand, you know?"
