The Author's POV

Standing at the top of a small cliff, I looked at the pale red sky.

A pungent and chemical-like smell lingered in the air, prompting my nose to momentarily close up.

"Two more months, huh?"

With four months gone, there were only two months left for me in this place.

Actually, if possible, I preferred to go back earlier.

Surprisingly the Demon realm wasn't that much different compared to earth. Aside from the terrible smell, and the fact that the place was filled with demonic energy which made it harder for me to recover my mana, everything else was pretty much normal.

The landscapes, the time difference, and the gravity. It was pretty much the same as that of earth which surprised me quite a bit.

Ah, right, this place also had only one sun.

Lowering my head, I covered my mouth.

"Huaam, I'm tired."

During these four months, I didn't only just train, but I also spent the time sorting out the thoughts inside of my head.

It took me quite a bit, but I had pretty much come to terms with everything that had happened.

Despite the fact that I wanted to reject everything that I had learned with all my heart, I knew that it wouldn't do me any good.

And thus.

I decided to stop caring. Or should I say, I decided to move on and focus everything on getting stronger.

If the figure inside of my head was none other than my future self, then I decided to stop at nothing to stop that future.

That said.

Squatting down a little, I squinted my eyes and gazed into the distance.

"Looks like they've finally made their move…"

"Indeed."

Before I knew it, my other self had appeared next to me as he similarly looked into the distance.

"The greed clan have finally started to make their move against you."

"Figured as much."

With everything that I had done over the past couple of days, I wasn't surprised by this development.

Rather, I was in fact more shocked by how slow they were.

Sitting back down on the ground, I looked up at the sky.

"Hey, what exactly were you planning when you had me provoke the greed clan."

Knowing myself well, I knew that my other self had other plans in mind when telling me to destroy a series of sub-branches.

The real question was why would he want to do that?

"Weren't you looking for a way to save Amanda's father?"

Unexpectedly, I received an answer to my question. What surprised me the most was the contents of his words.

I instantly sat up straight.

"Wait, do you have an idea of where he is?"

There were three goals I had in mind when entering the demon realm.

Of those three goals, one of them was finding Amanda's father.

Over the last few months, although Amanda had tried to hide it as much as possible, I could tell that she was incredibly exhausted.

And not only that, the guild didn't seem to be faring well lately.

It had gotten to the point where Natasha had decided to come back and take the reigns of the situation. Not that she was of much help, but it still did relieve Amanda of her stress.

That said.
