Heaven Breaker: SSS Rank Tiger Evolution-Chapter 47: If only I could go back in time...

"Anyway, it’s already late. I’d better go." I said to Raiden, my face already flushed.

"Sure, sure. Have a good night." He said, slightly drunk, as I waved and took a step forward onto the balcony, intending to fly away.

"But can you fly in that state?" he said as I misstepped and stumbled.

"I think so..." I replied uncertainly.

I took a deep breath before giving a small hop and taking off.

My body ascended into the skies, the castle below me growing smaller the farther I went.

Breathing deeply once more, I searched for an empty place to land.

However, whispers—more and more whispers—echoed inside my head.

"Ugh." I clenched my teeth, my head throbbing as the whispers grew louder and louder.

My eyes searched for the source of that unbearable sound and soon fell upon one of the castle’s towers.

"I don’t recognize this voice..." I pondered briefly. "It’s not like the spirits of light or shadows, nor like the four elements or healing. So what is it?"

I kept watching for a moment before sighing and landing atop the castle’s tiles.

"I’ll figure this out later. Now... more important than that..." I quickly examined my human figure and clicked my tongue, receiving my confirmation.

"The form I used to learn the four elements was more refined—a perfect equivalent of my feral form, but capable of more delicate movements and greater range. This one, though, is like simply crushing a tiger and stuffing it into a human mold... a mess."

I sighed, though I could still see advantages to this form. It just wasn’t as good as it could be.

"From what Raiden and that entity Euphy summoned said, I can deduce that this so-called noble transformation is that perfect form—a hybrid between human and beast. Acquired through multiple evolutions."

I nodded, letting the topic die, and focused on something else.

My shadow.

Certainly, after acquiring the [ Living Shadow ] ability, it had undergone some changes.

I could feel it—my shadow was breathing. It was watching. It truly was alive, but inactive.

It was like an empty shell, a functional and strange body, but without a mind to take control.

It seemed like an incomplete ability, likely the result of a mortal trying to steal the power of immortals.

However...

I laughed in amusement.

My legacy consciousness merged with my shadow, giving me two perspectives of the real world.

The shadow blinked and moved its neck independently.

Under my command, it drifted away from me and began wandering through the castle corridors, analyzing every vase and painting.

Then it returned to me.

I took a deep breath and instinctively moved my Primordial Force—something anomalous for me and commonplace for others.

Suddenly, my shadow began to rise from the two-dimensional plane and enter the third dimension.

A tiger made of shadows stared at me with silver eyes.

Its stomach looked hungry.

"I’ll call you Ludwig, the glutton," I said, and he nodded in response. "And now I’ll give you your first order, so listen carefully."

"Gluttony! Go and satisfy your hunger!"

Immediately, the shadow vanished from my sight, my eyes quickly searching for it across the heavens.

In the sky, the shadow of a small tiger ran among the stars, seeking those it could devour.

Before long, it found a small and weak celestial object and sank its fangs into it, devouring it avidly.

"This is... that’s impossible!"

I took a sharp breath, my heart tightening in my chest—endless energy flooding into me.

My body was on the verge of exploding from so much energy.

[ You have killed a comet (small) ]

[ Exp: 77,800 → 300,000 ]

[ Level up ... ]

[ Level up ... ]

[ Level up ... ]

...

"What the hell?!" I exclaimed, nearly falling backward as my body erupted with power.

Against my will, the Primordial Force formed into smoky silk, my body being concealed by all my power.

THUMP THUMP THUMP

My heart was the only thing I could hear, on the brink of bursting.

I breathed deeply, trying to contain the power, my body moving as if in a dance. 𝒇𝓻𝓮𝓮𝙬𝙚𝒃𝒏𝓸𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝓬𝓸𝒎

My body moved with the force of nature—flames, water, wind, and earth being summoned.

Meanwhile, the energy of the stars poured down upon me, amplifying all of them, while healing prevented everything from spiraling out of control, regenerating what the stars destroyed.

I inhaled deeply, watching Ludwig run through the sky in search of another comet to devour.

His gluttony was endless!

’My power! My power! Why won’t you listen to me?!’

I clenched my teeth so hard that blood ran down the corners of my mouth, my muscles bursting with strength.

That energy was slowly being absorbed by my organism, permanently strengthening it.

"It hurts—this hurts so much! But hahaha, it’s so good! This is the power that will grant me freedom!"

I laughed louder and louder as I continued to dance faster and faster.

"To hell with all of this!" I rose into the air once more and began dancing among the clouds.

Stars of fire fell from the sky like fireworks, alongside stars of every element.

Raiden watched in shock from the balcony, a possessed laugh slowly taking hold of him.

Laxus’s jaw looked like it was about to drop from one of the windows.

Dozens of nobles focused on me with shock, surprise, joy, and greed.

From one of the balconies, the Lord of the Lightning Tiger stared at me intensely, hundreds of plans running freely through his mind, just like his wife beside him—her face familiar to me.

"So they told us the truth. This is real power."

They murmured among themselves, my ears catching the conversation but ignoring it as I kept dancing.

The spirits of nature filled my ears, revealing more and more secrets to me.

My mind throbbed, yet expanded more and more by force.

I laughed and laughed.

My body was already numb from so much power coursing through my veins when I finally ordered Ludwig to return to me.

"Vlad would die in seconds if he saw me like this," I sighed, letting my body fall like a feather through the air.

Through Ludwig, I saw the sun rising on the horizon.

However, the sky was filled with storm clouds.

Laughing, I immediately channeled my strength into my fist and struck, creating an ascending shockwave.

BOOOOM

The clouds parted, revealing a golden dawn.

My body fell like a feather into the golden dawn, my hands resting behind my neck in a lazy descent.

"My punch defies the heavens, my presence makes the earth tremble, and even the blind can see my glory."

If I could return to that time, when the earth mourned and I could only flee before the celestial beings—

I know that now, I could change fate.
