As for how to lure these enemies out, I already got an idea about what to do. However, to do it, I had to get the help from the system, and also if possible the help from other contestants participating with me.
The last world was the one I originally came here for; the angel world!
The content of the disaster they were facing was the same. They were trapped inside a closed time loop that they couldn't come out from.
The main difference between this and the other quests in the list was that this race was facing the threatening danger already in the quest. They were in an all out war against a mysterious enemy, and they kept losing at the end.
The world ended by the death of everyone and the destruction of the entire planet before time would reset and things would return to the climax point of such a clash.
And for the danger level, it was a very terrifying one; very lethal danger level. The system didn't just get satisfied by writing down such words as it added. Also it wasn't advised for anyone to select this one as trying to get out from that world was denied by the time loop cycle.
I recalled what Sith once told me. Those with time abilities had the power to go in and out from such time looped disasters.
With my time ability that I got from the old man, such danger wouldn't affect me. Plus I was planning to do something huge this time!
"It's time for negotiation then," as I made up my mind, I didn't hesitate and said out loud: "I want to propose something in regard to this quest."

As I expected, the one responsible for this quest was the system higher ups and not the cold female system voice that spoke earlier.
"I want to select more than one world to save," I slowly said.
[The rules are clear. They aren't just to limit you, but also to protect you and others' safety!]
I knew this was the case from the start. The system higher ups wanted to save these races, but they seemed to be limited by something or some sort of power.
So they limited access to just one world to make sure we weren't facing great risks for naught.
"I know," I admitted such a fact out loud, "but I want not only to save one world, but everyone."
[This… Didn't you read the list and papers in it? Didn't you read the description and understand them or what?]
That system higher up seemed to be quite surprised by my request. And yet his words didn't manage to shake me off.
"I read them quite well," I slowly said, "and I got the real goal behind all this. I want to help you get rid of that enemy."
[That…] I knew if I wanted to get what I wanted, I had to be bold and declare my intentions loud and clear.
"I want to save everyone, but I know my limits. I frankly can't do such a thing alone. So I need a little help here."
[Why are you doing this?] the system higher up didn't follow my line of words and instead he asked what puzzled him the most.
"They already put a mark on top of my head," I didn't try to give a meaningless reason or something, "so if I'm going to fight them, why shall I just fight them with my hands tied behind my back?"
[Hmm… I have to say that we, the system and those who control it, can't meddle in this by any means]
"I don't want you to do anything like that," I got what he meant by his words. As I guessed, the system was already forcing itself here while paying a hefty price for this.
I didn't depend on the system's help in my plans. If I ever did, then I'd have ended up quite disappointed.
[Then what do you want? Taking part in more than one world quest isn't something hard to do. However I have to tell you this in advance, the first step is for you to go into a secluded part of these worlds and try to build up your forces first]
I finally got something in advance! I grinned evilly. I recalled what Isac asked to do before, and couldn't help but feel more reassured.
I tried to make preparations for every possible scenario I'd face, including turning common people into warrior tokens and storing them inside my inventory.

After all the inventory of many we claimed got resources. Not to mention resources we got from the second Earth world, either dug out from there or being sent by Silverlining from before.
So if the task needed us to take a barren piece of land and build our base on it, it wouldn't pose a problem to me.
"I still want to do it," what he said didn't change my mind. I still wanted to go through my plan.
[Then tell me what do you want?]
I already secured my first request, which was gaining access to more than one world.
"I want other contestants to start aiming towards the same goal we all here wanted!"
I didn't directly say what I wanted, but I was sure that dude out there got my hidden meaning.
[This… What do you exactly want?]
"Come on! Do you want me to say it out loud? Fine! I want those people to stop getting the wrong idea from this quest. Instead of fighting among ourselves, it's better for all of us to work together."
[But like this the main goal of this quest will be lost! We need a winner to be determined, and that's the only way to keep such access path open]
