I fall on my knees. My vision blurs
It feels Im passing out due to the overflow of hatred towards the system
I guess this young body of mine shouldnt be able to handle something that even my old self couldnt handle
Not really surprising.
After a while I wake up at a police station.
It seems the police found the scene of my mothers death
Though why am I in a interregation room?
The police officer infront of me spoke before I could think of the reason
"Did you know what happened to your mother, boy?"
He says with a suspicious look on his face
N-no Mr. Officer, I really dont know what happened to her. As soon as I heard a scream I rushed to the kitchen and saw her lifeless corpse
I see. Since we have no evidence you will be charged of murder until further investigation
But officer, Im a teenager. Do I have to get the full sentence?
He stared at me with a disdainful look in his eyes obviously feeling disgusted at me
You have the right to remain silent, anything you say or do will be used against you in the court
He says to me obviously holding back his disgust
I think to myself.
"why am I even getting charged for something I havent done?!"
I suddenly realized that this was all bullshit and someone was definitely framing me
How can I, a mere 15 year old boy defend myself in court..?
Why am I just staring at this police officer with a blank expression?
Well, if you dont have anything else to say I will take you to your cell right now
Wait—but officer I didnt murder anyone!
How can you just so disgustingly lie like this boy..
I guess fate is unchangeable
this interregation did happen to me in my previous life too but back then, i was proven innocent.
So why does it feel like this time, fate is against me?
Well they have no evidence against me anyways
Cuff me up officer.
Hide your murderous intentions boy.
unlike the person you murdered few moments ago
I am a reverent
A reverent..?
Of course, it had to be someone like him. I should have expected it, but seeing one this early is….. overwhelming
Maybe if I had the same magic amplification as my past life I would easily kill him
"Fuck you officer."
Then I spat on his face as I swiftly broke free from the handcuffs and ran away from the station
I couldnt see the police officer chasing me anywhere, maybe he is a weak reverent?
He seems like a reverent I could beat
But I just refused arrest, I think thats illegal right?
I dont think I can be proven innocent now
Ha…..
I've just came back to the past and I've already made a mistake
Well, I dont think I will be caught by the officer…
Unless— I somehow get a bounty put on my name
If that does truly happen. I would need to stay low
Man…
Fuck, why did I just refuse arrest? I should've just let fate be
Its funny, I want to change the fate of this world but now Im getting pissed off at myself for changing something
Im such a hypocrite
haha..
Maybe it could be a good thing like a butterfly effect right?
Well lets get these childish thoughts out of my head, hurry and run away before the reverent officer notices Im still here
I really didnt expect to meet a reverent so soon after my regressions.
I thought it would take me atleast a year or so
Behind these thoughts I heard a voice..
One that wasnt mine—spoke in my mind, cold and unwavering
"Reverent, Elias Troum. Your actions have been acknowledged"
"Your achievements have earned you a Name of Echo"
W-what? I froze, my body still trembling from the adrenaline. An echo? No—thats impossible. In my past life I never achieved such a thing
"Generating Name of Echo—Analyzing Achievements"
Achievements? My fists clenched. I havent achieved anything yet!
