_____________________________

What Xavier did with his 'Event Loop' ability was simple.

Using the power of Fate to manipulate the aspects of Past and Future, Xavier created an event loop that will trap an event inside a frightening cycle.

The Past Aspect allows Xavier to set a [START POINT], which is the moment where the whole event will start.

The Future Aspect on the other hand signifies the [END POINT], which is the moment where the whole event will end.

By using the [START POINT] and the [END POINT] together, Xavier will be able to force an event that is between these two [POINTS] to undergo an endless cycle…

************

If the event inside the Event Loop reaches the [END POINT], the whole event will be forced to end.

The event will then have to restart from the [START POINT], where it will proceed until it reaches the [END POINT]…

Since the [START POINT] and the [END POINT] had been established this time, this event will be forced to repeat itself over and over, and it will be doomed to stay like this for forever.

This event can only escape the loop if the [START POINT] and the [END POINT] were to be removed, something which of course is hard to happen.

**************

This definition of the 'Event Loop' ability was obviously confusing, and many who hears or reads this explanation will surely find themselves confused.

[Author's Note: Maybe the readers here are confused too…]

Fortunately, Xavier had an easier way to explain this ability, which he concocted when his Companions demanded him to explain his ability in an easy manner…

In Xavier's simpler terms, the Event Loop will force a person to be stuck only in a few moments during the Present Time, and he won't be able to move forward due to the power of the Past and Future halting his tracks.

Even if this person wants to do something, he will be forced to repeat his Present Time for countless times, and he will have no way of escaping from this effect.

************

************

************

Knowing about the effects of the Event Loop was bizarre in itself already, but the sight of it actually happening was even more mystifying.

This was made obvious when the Event Loop began working in the whole venue…

"….."

Starting from the moment that Xavier began his chant[START POINT], all the events seem to be proceeding forward as usual. Xavier looked confident as he chanted and all of his Fate Power was ready to be deployed.

But at the moment that Xavier activated his 'Event Loop' ability[END POINT], these events suddenly reversed themselves, bringing things back at the moment that Xavier began his chants[START POINT]!

Once it came back to this moment, the event proceeded normally again, with Xavier repeating his chants.

This repetition of event was suspicious by itself already, but it was what happened after that made things even more confusing.

Because when Xavier activated his 'Event Loop' ability[END POINT], all the events reversed themselves again, back to the time that Xavier started chanting[START POINT]!

Once this happened again, Xavier did not act as if something was wrong. He repeated his chants with his Fate Energy also repeating what it had done before….

And similar to what happened to the previous moments, all the events reversed themselves once more after Xavier activated his 'Event Loop' ability [END POINT]….

****************

To those who can see what was happening to Xavier right now, they will surely notice what is really happening.

It seemed as if Xavier was doomed to do a certain action for a few moments in time, just for it to be reversed and then be performed by Xavier again.

And then, it will be reversed just for Xavier do it again….

And then it will be reversed just for Xavier to do it again…

And then it will be reversed just for Xavier to do it again…

And then it will be reversed just for Xavier to do it again…

"…."

There seemed to be no escape for Xavier at this moment, as if he was meant to repeat what he was doing for forever.

This is of course the true power of the 'Event Loop' and for the current Xavier, he will be stuck on this endless loop unless he deactivates this ability….

***********

This cycle of reversal and repetition made Xavier look mystifying, but it is not only Xavier that should be observed at this point.

Because aside from Xavier, all the people present in the venue were affected by this cycle too!

Some of the Travelers present in the venue, who were in a state of attacking, suddenly found their movements reversed back to the moment that Xavier started his chants[START POINT]!

It was only when the [START POINT] was reached that this people could attack once more, but when Xavier activated his 'Event Loop' Ability[END POINT], all these people's actions were forced to be reversed again!

This then went on and on, leaving all these people stuck on a cycle that forced them to repeat what essentially is a sub-second moment in time!

*****************

The activation of the 'Event Loop' ability took a lot out of Xavier, to the point that the man himself was gravely injured due to the amount of power that he had to gather just to activate this ability.

Such injury made Xavier whimper and fear for his life, but all of these emotions were drowned by his happiness, as he was extremely pleased that his power worked.

"Hehehe, since Beatrice and my Companions have no one disturbing them now, surely they will be happy with what I did, right? Of course they will be happy. After all, I gave them some precious time for themselves…"

With all of the Travelers trapped inside the Event Loop and his Companions able to attack freely, Xavier was already satisfied with himself, even if he's still gravely injured.

All that Xavier had to do now was to wait for his Companions to succeed, something that he's confident that they can do.

"Hehehe…" With this sure-fire win about to be achieved by him, the elated Xavier did not dare to worry about anything else. He just laughed and laughed as the Event Loop went another set of repetition.

VENUE OF THE WELCOMING CEREMONY.

"There it is. One of the Travelers made his move. Now, let's see how the others will react…."

The hooded Alina, whose face was hidden by a perfectly woven veil, muttered these words to herself as she observed the effects of the ability that the Traveler Xavier had just unleashed.

Her eyes were both furrowed as she felt the intensity of Traveler Xavier's ability, and if she were any weaker, she might even find herself trembling right now.

"So this is the power to manipulate fate, huh. This is interesting. I wonder how he managed to harness this for himself…."
