After destroying everything that could hold him back he activated the Rewind Metac and jumped into the River of Time. Since then, he had been on the run. Running away and creating distance between himself and that point in time seemed to be the only thing he could do to alleviate the fear in his heart.
After what felt like ages, the fear finally receded and disappeared. Because of this, his previously heavy heart lightened, and he sighed in relief.
However, he still needed more time to recover his composure. For some reason, he had been shaken more than he thought he could be. So now that the source of his fear was gone, he still needed to deal with the impact of the fear and let his frayed mind relax.
Since he didn't need to run for his life anymore, he stopped rushing ahead and instead slowed down. Thanks to this leisurely pace, he was able to relax better.
