Chapter 245: Breaking The Speedforce

I sunk into the floor after giving my frisky kitty another deep kiss. I would need to make some time for her soon, but for now, I need to get a hold of this speed.

I was going to crash at least two more times by Eva's calculations before my reaction time would be able to catch up. Each time I used the speed I would dial up my perception of time and be able to react faster, but in my current state, I couldn't even blink as fast as I moved. 

This was the best place to do it, there was at least a lot of snow to cushion my crash. I would get to a point where I could control when I could use it, but this was part of the requirement. 

I did find it weird that I wasn't affected by it in the house and I would have to do some tests after. I was fully back in my massive mech body, but holding still and getting ready for the move.

"I have been able to upgrade your repair system. So, as long as you don't crash too hard, you should be able to try again within five minutes. The faster your perception is the faster I can work. Soon you will be able to repair almost as fast as the damage is caused. It won't help if you get cut in half and pull from your other half," Eva explained over the intercom as I ushered the Gates power through me to strengthen my frame.

"Point taken. Okay, let's try this again. Hypersonic step, take twooo!"

I had turned my head too quickly, and I was in a cave, and I hurt. I looked up to see the ice wall I had smashed through, and then put my head down again. 

"That wasn't quite as bad," I said, still not moving.

"I need you to go inside so I can take the Dragon Armor out of the cave after I fix it," Eva called out.

"Sure, but mark this place on the map, something tells me I will want to come back here when I can move normally again," I said as I dropped back into the cabin area.

The cave was filled with glowing gemstones, and it wasn't marked on the map. So, either it was a random anomaly or it is a hidden cave, and those always had the best treasure. 

In the meantime, I wanted to step into the hours for a minute to try something. I walked over and into the hall that led from the cabin area.

Once inside the hall, I tried to use the Gates to fill my body, but nothing happened. Even stranger yet, I couldn't even feel the Gates.

'Eva, do you know anything about why I can't feel the Gates in here?'

'As I said, this place is in a pocket in between the layers, so it is actually outside of reborn so your quirk does not apply here, nor does your magic. I don't know anything else about this world as it is your creation.' -Eva.

That didn't help me at all, but at least I knew why I had no power here. I wondered just how big this world was? 

So far, I had not seen a stop in the scenery, but that could just be an illusion. I would have to test it out, but that was dangerous all on its own.

Without having powers to protect men I could just drive until I hit a dead stop or I could get seriously hurt, or even die. Since this place was outside of Reborn, I didn't want to test what would happen if I died. There would be no guarantee that I would come back or even where I would go, that was Dave's department.

I walked back into the cabin, there was no point in trying to go see Kyra and the others. If Eva was as fast as she said she was…

'I am, and it is done.' -Eva.

I smiled as I sunk into the floor. It was so easy to forget how easily she could read my thoughts, but I wasn't a bad thing. Plus, we were together as one now, so I would always share these things in this world, but that brought up the next question.

What happened to Eva when I went to the next world? Would she come with me? A-Type weapons would stay with you in the game worlds, but I don't know how it would work in the Zodiac world though.

"You don't need to worry. Thanks to you making this world, you might be able to keep all the women with you inside of your head. I also have been able to take form in the house, but I don't have clothes so I have been staying out of sight. Still, it is nice to stretch my legs in the library, but I would like to get out some time," Eva said with a giggle over the intercom.

I was outside of the cave now, and it was time for another run. There was a chance that I could get it this time and then from there it would just be a matter of rinse and repeat until my body got used to it.

"I will get Kyra to go into my mother's room and bring you some clothes. Then you can join us for a meal and we can do some driving," I said as I refilled my frame with power.

"Thank you, that would be really nice. Even though we are one, I can only share your experiences, but it would be nice to have some of my own," Eva said softly over the intercom.

I would help make memories with her, and the news of being able to take everyone with me was pretty cool, but they would have to live without magic or powers. 

Most would be fine with that, but we would need to build a bigger house, and whiteout magic, so that alone will make it hard. Maybe I could head to Ratiha after and hire some builders that were used to not having magic. Plus, there were the three sheds that were filled with tools.

It was time to put all those thoughts aside and concentrate on getting this down. I was just wasting time right now when I should be getting this completed so I can move on.

I concentrated and prepared myself, aiming at the largest open space of land that had the longest distance to go before hitting anything. Eva pulled up a heads-up display she had created with my knowledge.

Most of which I couldn't access or only had bits and parts. This was because of all the things crammed in there from the ridiculous number of years I had been alive in-game. 

The only person older than me was Dave. I had no idea how old he was, but at the very least he was three hundred years past me. Not so much the little brother, but that just meant that I should have this no problem, I was an OG, original gamer!

I stepped and then the world started to blur, but I stomped down and dug into the ground with my foot. Now was the tricky part, the flash step. 

I had to start using the speed to go side to side to start out with. According to the information that I had from the Gate, this would let me build up my resistance to the speed. 

Once I did it enough I would dial up to use the speed, and it would be far more controllable. So, I stepped back and was sent back, starting the Flash Step.

Traveling at roughly almost four thousand Kilometer instantly at first was head jarring, and coming back the second time I almost fucked up and hit a tree. After that it was peachy, and I started to rip a two-kilometer track, basting the snow back for fifteen meters on either side of me.

'Go faster now, you have to get up to ten thousand and then you will be able to use your speed at four thousand Kilometers per hour. You will no longer need to hit your enemies directly, your force and speed will decimate all. That is, except for the Forest Golem, you will need the last Gate to defeat him, but I don't think he is important right now.' Eva.

I was up to Mach five and the snow was starting to stop, but I need to go faster! I started to kick and I sped, watching the speed dial on the HUD crank up, but I could still only hit seven, but I was close.

I was worried before that I might go too fast, but now I was ready to try and use the Gate to boost myself. I kicked and pucked in the same direction, but then left my fist out on both sides and started to use a blast of the Gates power.

Just like I had thought, far too fast, I broke Mach thirteen. Clocking out at just over sixteen thousand kilometers per hour and I was feeling cooked as I slowed.

When I stopped, I was confused, had I just broken the Speedforce? It was sunny out, and there was no snow let anywhere near me. 

The ground was massively gouged like a canyon had been ripped open and I was floating over top of it. No, I was falling, but very slowly.

'H...y...d...e…...s...l...o...w…...d...o…w...n!' -Eva.
