It came out of nowhere. I noticed a disturbance in the dimensional fabric and there he was. A tall handsome guy with blonde spiky hair. Well-built, shirtless, and an arrogant smile on his face. He gave off an energy I despised.

  “That woman over there piqued my interest. Hand her over, and I will let the rest go on with their day.”

  He beckoned Giana with confidence.

  I blocked his view by placing myself in front of Giana and went 9t mode.

  How about you fuck off and get someone else? How about tomato bitch, I'm sure she's single.

  I sent foxfires at him, which disappeared into a portal.

  “Uhh, making me work for it…” He floated up, countless portals opened next to him and the foxfires came out of it and hit Giana and me.

  “I'm not leaving Deca’s side! You're rejected!” Giana said as she started [Golden Aria].

  Guys…I think we should run. My intuition tells me that this guy is bad news.

  “It's unlike you to not be up for a fight, is everything alright with you, Raishin?” Noelle asked, making sure Raishin wasn't ill.

  This god could do whatever I could do, but better. A spatiotemporal god. Great…exactly what we needed. Raishin might be right. Spatiotemporal magic comes close or beats out other cheat magic branches. Giana and I are bad examples.

  Guys, Raishin might be right. Let's run!

  “Haha, you're funny! Running from me? A god who commands space and time? How about this? Become my follower and I will allow you to see my woman over there once in a while. Although…”

  He sent Yv into a portal, who came at him for a kick.

  Yv!

  “Each of these women are alluring. I don't see why I can't take them all!” He snapped his finger and the portal Yv had been sucked into, vibrated and glowed purple. It spat her out moments later, seemingly unharmed.

  Yv, are you ok?

  Yv gave me a strange look as the god put his arm around her neck.

  “Heh, don't bother, I rewrote her timeline so that she had always been my woman. Yvonne, be a dear and toss your friends into a portal.”

  Yv gave this god a look she often gave me and nodded. “Yes, Gnari!”

  Yv went 4t mode, used [Sasa Veridia] and came for Giana.

  Yv please…

  I made eye contact with her, showing her illusions of her time in team Hourai.

  “How vile of you to suggest that I am part of your group and not Gnari’s wife.”

  I had to mentally recover from that tone and those words, and took a kick. Petals cut into me as I got sent flying.

  Greg! Watch out!

  Gregory had tossed his hammer, imbued with abyss magic, at Gnari, which got sucked into a portal and sent back.

  Giana healed my wounds and went through various songs and spells. “Deca, I tried everything but nothing worked…she's not gone forever, right?”

  Yv was attacking into Giana's barriers with no success. I froze Yv and Gnari, Yv with normal ice and Gnari with frost. I wanted to examine Yv's condition to find how to reverse it when Raishin and Greg got sucked into a portal.

  I used [Elgard Overload] to get them back and reverse Yv's condition.

  Oof, so many impossibilities I have to kick out. Guys we need to get out of here! Deca, stay close to me, you should be immune to that effect, Raishin, get the slower members.

  I overwrote the portals Gnari made.

  And Yv, it's nice to have you back and I'm sorry…

  “No I'm sorry…to think that I believed that I was his wife…” Yv's ears drooped.

  It was reality for you, you did nothing wrong.

  “A cool trick! But guess what!? I can do it again!” Gnari's divine energy welled, and an enormous portal opened and started sucking us in.

  Giana and I flew off and Yv tried to save us but got dragged with us.

  A stomp and a mana wave went out as grids and polygons appeared and everyone got nailed to the ground.

  Thanks Noelle. We need to address this problem before Agnis' [Elgard Overload] drops.

  There were too many impossibilities I had to kick out of reality, which ended up delaying my first window of overpoweredness to halfway the 8-minute duration. I attempted to warp him far away and the 6 of us simultaneously, but Gnari put divine energy into it making my attempts futile.

  “Lil' bro, I can't hold this much longer!”

  Noelle and Gregory had been defending against massive spatiotemporal spears and other projectiles bombarding them.

  “Deca, let me help them.” Giana said and used a massive amount of spirit energy and sniped Gnari out of the sky. He was unhurt but it did surprise him.

  Strange magic circles appeared around us and I pushed Giana and Yv out of it.

  My focus was divided between keeping the portal from sucking us in and delaying the activation of the magic circle. It was so sloppy that it would take time to figure out what it does.

  This tale has been unlawfully obtained from Royal Road. If you discover it on Amazon, kindly report it.

  “It seems that things will get easier if I keep you busy.” Gnari said, stretched his hand at me and a singularity appeared next to me which my tails encapsulated and contained.

  Ugh, spatiotemporal magic is so overpowered.

  “Deca!”

  Go help Raishin, Noelle and Gregory. I will be fine.

  Is what I'd like to think, but I'm toast when my 9t mode drops, the moment [Elgard Overload] ends. Only 2 minutes left. I am not even allowed to think as the 3 things, I'm trying to contain, drain all my focus.

  Raishin went 6t mode and hurt Gnari, which pissed him off. [Crystal Satellites] flew around, blocking attacks that would otherwise hit Raishin.

  The portal ballooned in size and sucked up everyone, besides Yv, who was close enough for me to grab.

  3 tails were dug into the ground, 5 were containing the singularity and 1 was holding Yv.

  Yv, if possible, I want you to flee.

  “Absolutely not. I'm not leaving you behind!”

  The portal shook and spat everyone out besides Giana.

  “How odd, her timeline doesn't want to move. I guess I will have to seal her until I can find out how. I want my hot rabbit wife back, though. How about it, my 2 servants and new wife?”

  Raishin, Noelle and Gregory got ready to attack as their mana spiked.

  My tails chucked the singularity at Gnari while I jumped away.

  The magic circle activated and took my legs with a pure spatiotemporal blast.

  My [Elgard Overload] dropped, so I got kicked out of 9t mode

  “Sweetie!”

  Yv, this is not important. I'm a bit used to losing limbs. Please run…

  All my teleport attempts had been jammed by either the god and now Noelle.

  Yv lifted me and a crystal wolf stomp locked us in place.

  Hey have I told you how overpowered you guys are?

  I created legs out of frost, went 9t mode again and used [Elgard Overload] to yet again reverse the situation.

  “Your tails…”

  Yv had a sad look as the tips of my tails turned red.

  A small price to pay. Can you get them far away? This jerk is trying to seal Deca…

  Yv and I looked at Gnari who had a rough time sealing Giana. He was close to succeeding but needed more time.

  “I will apologize later for being useless…”

  Yv hopped toward Raishin, Noelle and Gregory.

  I teleported to Gnari and kicked his head, sending him flying and forcefully cracking the incomplete seal. A happy vixen appeared out of it and embraced me.

  I'm sorry Deca, not now, can you fix my legs and create a strong barrier?

  “Your tails…”

  My tails curled around Giana and me as a [Dimensional Spear] flew at us and sent us flying. It had quite some divine energy in it, but it didn't hurt as much as the attack tomato goddess had used to injure my tails.

  I felt a familiar tug.

  Ugh, another singularity.

  I uncurled my tails and kicked the singularity out of reality.

  The others were stuck in a time loop and couldn't escape.

  “Haha! I don't know who you guys are, but you're entertaining! You there!” Gnari pointed at me.

  “I'm sure my sister would like you. Anyway, playtime is over.” He clapped, and the area turned dark, my eyes couldn't find out what went out.

  Light returned, Giana was sealed, and the rest of team Hourai had their timelines rewritten.

  “You see, I can undo things too. It strangely doesn't affect you or this rebellious new wife, but I like a challenge. I will send my sister after you, cya!”

  Gnari made a salute and warped away with my partners and friends.

  I attempted to get more mileage out of my [Elgard Overload]. My tails suggested something, as I would be unlikely to go 9t mode and use [Elgard Overload] for a third time consecutively.

  I feel like crap but that might be the only thing I can do.

  I shattered as many illusion layers as I could and formed 9 [Illusionary Daggers]. I waited for my window of overpoweredness to warp Gnari back.

  “What the?”

  The daggers assaulted him and all 9 stabbed him.

  “What the? That did no damage. What a pathetic attempt.” He kicked me to the side and gave a thumbs down before warping away.

  I couldn't manage to kick all impossibilities out of reality before [Elgard Overload] ended, causing me to get hit with a severe backlash.

  Ugh…focus Agnis, losing your friends hurts more than this!

  I said as a pool of red liquid was slowly spreading over the floor. The pain was excruciating, but fortunately not the worst pain I've ever experienced. I slowly froze myself to ensure I wouldn't bleed out.

  I took deep breaths, trying to calm down, which was near impossible. Happy thoughts, calming thoughts. That's what I need to focus on. They're not dead.

  Flashes of recent events and the persistent pain interrupted my futile attempts. Life couldn't just neatly kill me off, but had to take everything from me first…

  I managed to roll on my back and started applying nature energy to myself.

  The 9 [Illusionary Daggers] stuck in that asshole are my only chance, actually 8 chances.

  This calmed me down a bit. Not fully. I realized that there was no guarantee that I would succeed within 9 tries. I wish I could be an optimistic fool for thinking that 9 is enough…

  Another divine energy source appeared.

  “Oh my brother was right! How about I take you with me!”

  I ignored this deity, as I didn't have any energy to fight or argue.

  I got lifted, and a strange sensation came over me, akin to a shower, after she started to move. I miss Giana and her soft embrace and sweet songs, or Yv's cute expressions and fragrance. I don't want some unknown goddess…
