Strongest Mystic

After that a month passed just like that, Ethan became used to his life in the hospital and was quickly recovering. During this time, he leveled up to six, thanks to Sasha whose interest in him was already sixty thanks to his effort… and well high charm. He had also completed a few tasks from remnant will, like getting a blow job but he only earned measly special points.

For that he first had requested to change his room as it had a camera monitoring him. He gave the reason that he felt uncomfortable in constant supervision. But it didn't matter much to him if it was someone close staying with him, even Sasha assistance would do.

The martial genius category was still not usable. It had a skill called 'Lightening Edge', a sword move left behind by his father, but it was greyed out. According to Nyx, he first had to have a hundred health to access the martial genius category and different skills would have different requirements.

The harem section was currently empty and as for the shop it had only a few items at a pretty high price.

Ethan struggled with the remnant will ability, which tampered with his emotions. However, the other abilities were great and even overpowered if he used them wisely.

For instance, Ethan's ability to stop time caused any frozen area to become a no-go zone for normal humans, who unconsciously avoided it. But what if Ethan froze a public space being broadcast live around the world? That would result in Ethan facing severe consequences, making being a lab rat seem like the best-case scenario.

According to Nyx, only a few people in the world of Helen could sense changes in time, and even fewer could see through it. To do so, one needed to have a deep understanding of space and time, which was too complex for a normal human intellect to grasp.

This was why it was rare for someone to be born as a god-like genius or have fragments of Obsidian, just like Ethan Chase. Nyx was confident that Ethan's body and soul were special, thanks to her origin from obsidian and Ethan's subconscious. It was as if Ethan won a big prize in a lucky draw.

Ethan played around with the rest of the abilities except soul link. He was tempted to use it on Sasha but resisted this urge. For them to be so close was already risky enough for her. If by any chance he fucked it up and did something with Sasha's ethereal anvil and by chance she was out somewhere with many people, the result would not be good.

Actually he could have leveled up fast, if he used soul link and accepted other tasks that were a bit perverted, but he didn't accept them.

The reason for his hesitation was the remnant will which seemed to affect him from time to time, making him really pissed about it. Beside this, his days were pretty normal with his stepmother and his stepfather, Dylan Chase visiting him from time to time. His stepsister Mia also showed her face a few times, and Ethan knew that she was forced to come.

The world of Helen could be considered as an alternate Earth with really similar things except a few things. First was the few people who had superpowers, the second was that it was apocalyptic, and the third–which Ethan found better than the first—was its diversity in human-like species.

One of them was sitting in front of him, an old man with dog ears. Ethan was currently in the common room with a few other patients. The group was playing a rousing game of rummy, and Ethan was laughing and joking with the other patients.

The old man sitting across from him, who had introduced himself as George, leaned over and grinned.

"You know, Ethan, I envy you. You've got that pretty Sasha taking care of you all the time," George said, winking.

Ethan followed George's gaze across the room to where Sasha was standing, a kind smile on her face as she watched the patients play.

"She's a great nurse, that's for sure," Ethan nodded.

"Great nurse? She's got a sexy body, I would kill to have her take care of me," George replied with a chuckle.

Sasha, who heard the comment, her face turned red and her eyes glared at George. "Excuse me, Mr. George, I am here to provide medical assistance and not to be objectified. Let's keep the conversation appropriate." she said with a firm tone.

Ethan just smiled, glad that Sasha stood up for herself. Then he followed Sasha out of the room as they walked towards the therapy room. He was teasing and chatting with Sasha when a black haired nurse walked beside him, he gazed at her, amazed.

As the nurse walked away, Ethan couldn't help but imagine all the things he would do to her if given the chance and her consent. He found her figure the most attractive, her curves perfectly sculpted and her round buttocks and shapely legs outlined in her uniform. He could tell that she worked out.

His imagination ran wild with thoughts of running his hands over her curves and exploring every inch of her body. Disappointment washed over him as she turned the corner, taking her captivating figure out of his view. It was a pity that he couldn't see her face.
