I Gain a God-Tier Talent Every Level

Chapter 304

His parents... had turned into monsters.

That was almost the same as death.

But—

There was still hope.

Rei turned to look at Kumironi.

She was the most powerful healer he knew.

She could even resurrect the dead.

And right now—

His parents weren’t truly dead.

They had only become monsters.

That meant—

There should still be room to maneuver.

Maybe...

They could still be saved.

No—

They had to be saved.

I can obtain God-Tier talents capable of twisting the rules of the world. I can even make wishes...

I’m strong. There are many things I can do.

If I can’t do it now—

Then I’ll become stronger.

"Yeah... this is my home."

"Kumironi..."

Rei bit his lip. His voice choked slightly.

But in the very next second—

Kumironi saw his expression forcibly stabilize.

He recomposed himself.

Serious.

Steady.

With a heavy, resolute tone, Rei spoke:

"Kumironi... I’m asking you. Please help me."

Kumironi replied softly,

"...No matter what kind of difficulty you’re facing, I’ll help you."

"So... you don’t need to be like this."

Rei lifted his head.

Amidst the pain and despair—

He felt a trace of comfort.

Meeting Kumironi...

Really was a blessing.

"What do you need me to do?"

Rei looked at the two monsters in his hands.

Since he was asking for her help—

There was no reason to hide anything.

"These... are my family."

"They seem to have turned into monsters for some unknown reason."

"Kumironi... can you restore them to how they were?"

His emotions had calmed.

But that calmness hadn’t come easily.

During that brief span, Rei had repeatedly entered time-stop—

Using frozen time to forcibly stabilize his emotions.

The more complex the situation—

The less he could afford to panic.

Calm down.

Find a solution.

Not lose control.

Letting emotions run rampant when action was needed—

Would only make things worse.

"...I’ll try."

Rei nodded.

He gently placed the two slimes on the ground.

The slimes continued attacking him relentlessly—

Trying to engulf him with their sticky bodies.

But with Rei’s current strength—

They couldn’t even begin to affect him.

Kumironi placed her hand on the two slimes.

Emerald light flowed into their bodies.

"...They’re completely structured as monsters."

"There’s nothing left that resembles a human."

If Rei hadn’t said anything—

She would never have believed they were once people.

Kumironi looked at Rei—

Then back at the slimes.

"I... need some time."

Rei nodded silently.

"...Then I’ll go take a look elsewhere."

He glanced up at the sky.

It was pitch black.

No moon.

No stars.

Even the atmosphere felt thin.

This wasn’t the sky he remembered from Earth.

Which meant—

Earth itself probably didn’t originally exist in the Abyssal Sea.

Something...

Had moved it here.

Rei’s gaze shifted beyond Earth—

Toward a direction deep within the Abyss.

"Lomo."

That was where Lomo was.

The one responsible—

For turning his parents into monsters.

The moment he sensed that name—

Killing intent surged within him.

But he forcibly suppressed it.

Stay calm.

Don’t lose control.

Revive my parents first.

Don’t mix up priorities.

This was the first time since arriving in this world—

That he had felt such burning rage.

Before this—

Even when disasters occurred, he had always felt somewhat detached.

The struggle for reincarnation?

Everyone was fighting for their own chance.

Aelthymia’s pursuit?

She had been targeting Kumironi—he had simply gotten in the way.

The destruction of the Secret Sea.

The killing intent of Saint One.

None of it had been aimed specifically at him.

He had merely been caught in the crossfire.

Even when those events threatened him—

What he felt was disgust, annoyance, bad luck.

Not anger.

If anything—

Sometimes he even felt regret for enemies he had defeated or killed.

But now—

He was truly furious.

The people he cared about most—

Had been turned into monsters.

Right now—

He wanted nothing more than to kill that bastard immediately.

BOOM!

A massive wave exploded across the sea surface.

Rei, who had just been standing there—

Vanished.

Kumironi looked toward the direction he disappeared.

From the surging waves—

She could feel the suppressed fury within him.

"...Rei..."

...

Whoosh—!

In a single breath—

Rei arrived in Shanghai once more.

From high above, he looked down at the entire city.

And only then did he realize—

Shanghai was gone.

Unlike Qingdao—

Where buildings remained intact and monsters roamed freely—

This place was nothing but ruins.

Collapsed buildings stretched across the horizon.

It looked as though a Tier 4 class advancement expert had fought here.

Rei had come here because—

This was where he had transmigrated.

His final memory—

Was standing in Shanghai Airport—

Hearing a deafening explosion—

Followed by blinding fire.

And when he opened his eyes again—

He was in another world.

No—

More accurately, he had been transported.

As for why he had become a child—

He had no idea.

But this place—

Marked the end of his previous life.

Seeing Shanghai in ruins—

Rei immediately expanded his perception.

Sweeping across China.

Across provinces.

Across cities.

And then—

Beyond.

To other countries.

Guangzhou—

Everyone had turned into monsters.

Buildings were largely intact.

Minimal destruction.

Zhejiang. Jiangsu. Henan. Sichuan...

His perception swept across them all.

Almost every city—

Was the same as Qingdao.

Filled with monsters.

Whoosh—!

With a single thought—

Rei crossed thousands of kilometers, teleporting from Shanghai to Guangzhou.

[Fifth-Tier Origin Magic: Spatial Transference]

Even on Earth—

Magic could still be used freely.

This wasn’t a magic-restricted zone.

The elements were abundant.

Rei casually grabbed a monster in Guangzhou—

A creature with a pig’s head and human body—

Lifting it into the air.

Information flowed into his mind.

This monster—

Had also once been human.

Rei’s thoughts shifted.

His fingers flicked slightly—

And six different "Cores" shot out from his hand!

Bang!

The six cores became streaks of light—

Piercing through countless monsters across Guangzhou.

Information flooded into his mind like a raging tide.

These monsters—

All of them—

Were humans.

And every trace—

Pointed to the same source.

Lomo.

Rei stood still, staring into the distance.

Time froze briefly once more—

And with another thought—

He arrived in Zhejiang.

Same result.

Every monster—

Was once human.

Back and forth—

In just five minutes—

Rei traversed every major city in China.

Except Shanghai—

Which had been destroyed—

Every other city was the same.

And not just China.

India.

Japan.

France.

The United States...

Every country on Earth—

Shared the same fate.

Even the researchers in Antarctic stations—

Had turned into monsters.

Rei deduced the timeframe.

Two months ago.

During the Month of Life—February.

He began uncovering the final records humanity had left behind—

—

"January 28, 2026 — The sun and the moon disappeared. The entire sky turned pitch black."
