The Double - Chapter 658 - 202 Protection_3

A useless prince, yet brimming with kindness and compassion—his smile as warm as sunlight, illuminating this darkened era.But that was merely a mask, hiding the poisonous and mad nature beneath.A monster lurking behind a gentle shell.A system that feeds on stolen Heroines.He will outplay destiny—and rise as the world’s ultimate villain.

A slime randomly falls into existence. Sapient and born with the ability to recreate parts of the things it preys upon, the highly confused drop of primordial soup decides that the only real thing it can do is become the being at the top of the food chain. A task of longevity in the leaves of the Omniverse.

“I don’t care about how people in this world live, whether they have enough to eat, whether they can wear warm clothes, whether they have dreams and hope. I don’t care about their likes and dislikes.”

“It’s just that if you want to go to the sky, you need a complete advanced industrial system, a set of related research institutes, the most advanced materials science laboratory, and a big government that can coordinate all departments. It needs countless people who don’t have to worry about food and clothing. Dedicating wealth for this requires millions of high-level intellectuals to contribute their minds, and tens of thousands of different supporting manufacturers supply the best parts.”

“In short, it takes a world of abundance, and a great civilization to accomplish it.”

— Ian

[ Vol.3 ] Lucius “Lucien” Cronus—a titan of time, innovation, and power—stands at the peak of a world he reshaped with genius time-fueled ambition. Yet every triumph is hollow, every bond an echo—because none can replace those he’s truly lost. When faint disturbances ripple through time, Lucien’s obsession reignites, pulling him toward a confrontation no invention can stop—and a fate no one can escape.[ Vol.1 ] Ren, a young clockmaker’s apprentice living in 1868 Japan, begins to experience strange visions—glimpses of people he’s never met and lives he’s never lived. When a girl from an elite family speaks words he’s only heard in dreams, Ren is pulled into a mystery that stretches beyond memory and time. As dangerous spirits appear and reality begins to shift, he must uncover the truth behind his visions before everything he knows begins to slip away.
