The Emperor Engine's God-like Skill System

His gaze moved downwards, and sure enough, there was additional information below the "Gate of Time and Space" skill.

[1. After you travel to a new world, time will stop flowing in other worlds. Please feel free to explore this new world.]

[2. After using the Time Gate, it will enter a cooldown period. The cooldown time will be shortened when the user gains reputation points.]

3. All skills will be retained.

"Aren't you worried about what might happen in the original world when you travel through time?"

King's lips curled up slightly. In this way, even if he were to travel to another world, King would have no worries.

Now he is filled with curiosity about the new world.

What will the new world be like?

Swords and magic, or cyberpunk?

Will there be new games and anime in the new world?

King was slightly worried that there might be hostile beings like monsters in the other world, but after thinking about it, he felt that Escanor's power combined with his ability to see through illusions and regenerate was already a very powerful combination that should be able to handle almost any situation.

Moreover, King had come to understand, to some extent, the boredom that comes with being too powerful.

Just like a linear game that has been completed, once there are no more challenging enemies, the game loses its fun.

So if he could, King would naturally want to see the world.

"Open the portal!"

With King's command, the space in front of him gradually distorted, the light began to rotate, and it gradually transformed into a huge door.

Having made up his mind, King got out of bed and stepped into the portal.

......

come down.

A feeling of weightlessness reverberated through King's body, blurring his senses of time and space.

After an unknown amount of time, King noticed a dazzling light coming from directly in front of him and reached out to touch it.

In an instant, King suddenly appeared on a street.

There were many vehicles coming and going on the wide road, and the streets were full of bustling crowds. Various buildings stood on the roadside.

King looked up, and the bright sunlight poured down on him; it must have been noon.

He closed his eyes and sensed it briefly; Escanor's power was spreading within him.

"This is......"

King paused for a moment, then looked around curiously.

Did I really time travel?

King was somewhat puzzled because the surrounding environment didn't seem to be much different from the city he originally lived in. If he had to say, it seemed a bit older than the city he used to live in.

"Or perhaps... there's something we can't see?"

With that thought in mind, King immediately activated Divine Vision.

He immediately noticed the anomaly.

On the road and in mid-air, there were countless black shadows.

They varied in size and had bizarre shapes, looking like all sorts of monsters.

"Is he a weirdo?"

King was puzzled, but then he noticed that the people around him seemed oblivious to what was happening.

Some people even walked right past the bodies of these monsters.

Does this mean that humans and monsters coexist peacefully in this world?

King felt that the most important thing right now was to figure out what was really going on in this world.

"To enter the starting village, you need to find an NPC, so let's find someone to ask about the situation in this world first."

King thought to himself, and then looked for the most suitable person to ask—although King had been a hero for a long time, he was still not very good at dealing with people.

Moreover, at this moment, King, standing in the middle of the street, also had a very incongruous feeling.

Upon closer reflection, that's what I call a sense of unfamiliarity.

No one around him recognized him.

In the original world, King was an unparalleled hero who would cause a sensation and attract countless people to surround him simply by standing on the street.

King is now just an ordinary person, and he doesn't attract the attention of others.

This gave King a long-lost sense of peace.

Just then, King's gaze fell upon a woman in a school uniform at a nearby train station.

She wasn't tall, but her legs, clad in black pantyhose, looked incredibly slender beneath her uniform skirt.

Her long, flowing, jet-black hair cascaded over her shoulders, and her rare golden eyes adorned her already pretty face. Her fair skin was as white as winter snow.

However, King noticed that there was a giant monster in front of the girl, seemingly talking to her.

"...Can you see it?"

"...Can you see it?"

"...Can you see it?"

King could hear what the monster was saying to the girl, but the girl was pretending not to hear anything, staring blankly ahead.

However, King, who possessed the divine vision enhancement, could sense that the girl's body was trembling, as if she was somewhat afraid of the monster's presence.

Were you being harassed?

King remembered his duty as a hero, coughed lightly a few times, then walked straight to the girl and turned to look at the monster:

"Hey, that girl clearly doesn't want to talk to you, stop bothering her."

The moment King spoke, the girl's expression turned terrified, and her body began to tremble, as if she had been startled by King's words.

The monster turned its head and fixed its gaze on King.

"...Can you see it?"

"?"

King narrowed his eyes, his gaze locking onto the other person like a hunter's.

The monster's body was incredibly twisted, its features hanging on its face as if they were about to fall off at any moment, and its pitch-black body was like a shadow, making it look nauseating.

Even the ugliest freak doesn't look as strange as this guy in front of me.

"Can you see it?!"

The monster roared hysterically, baring its teeth and brandishing its claws.

The girl next to him trembled even more violently.

King's gaze sharpened slightly:

Your behavior was somewhat impolite.

As King spoke, he noticed that the attention of everyone else around him had not shifted to this side.

The monster's voice was very loud, but the people around it seemed not to hear it.

Could it be that no one else could detect his presence?

Is it because I have divine vision that I am able to see Him?

King thought to himself.

At the same time, the monster's body began to swell and twist, as if it were about to attack King at any moment.

Although he couldn't yet discern the opponent's true identity, King, sensing hostility, naturally wouldn't allow the attack to go unpunished. Thus, he secretly summoned Escanor's power to prepare for battle.

But at that moment, the monster let out a scream.

"It's so hot!"

"It's so hot!"

"I'm so hot!"

Suddenly, intense flames erupted from his body, completely engulfing him.

These flames, like monsters, devoured the creature, engulfing it in a mere instant.

The flames vanished instantly, and the monster turned to ashes, as if it had never existed.

"..."

King was speechless. He hadn't done anything yet; he had merely released Escanor's magic, and yet he had already burned the other person to a crisp.

That's far too fragile...

"that....."

King turned his head and looked at the girl next to him. The girl was also dumbfounded, staring at King in shock, as if she had not yet recovered from the scene just now.

Several seconds passed before the girl reacted and asked in a trembling voice:

"You...can you see it too?"

"kindness."

King didn't know how to answer, so he could only nod awkwardly. However, judging from the other person's words, it seemed that not everyone could see these monsters.

This girl might also have some kind of special skill.

However, King was a little curious. The girl clearly saw terrifying ghosts and was terrified, but she still pretended to be indifferent. Was there any reason for that?

Does this mean that these monsters will attack witnesses once they are sure they can be seen?

What exactly are these monsters?

Various questions arose in King's mind, but they also aroused his curiosity.

It's like entering an unfamiliar game for the first time for an adventure.
