Versatile System Online

"Ughh!, where am I",

Ray mumbled as he tried to open his eyes, yet closed them once again as the light fell upon them. He took his time as his eyes finally adjusted to the bright light that fell upon him.

A few moments later, he slowly opened his eyes, to find himself extremely surprised. After all, what he saw was something so astonishing that even he could not believe it, he was in a place where he could only see bright outlines.

Then suddenly,

He remembered fighting Bernard and being held back by him until he tried a suicidal method of relaying all of the energies in his body to flow through his mana core.

The memory shook him to his core. Beads of sweat formed upon his forehead as his eyes constricted as a thought arose in his mind,

"Am I dead?",

Sirens flared in his mind as this thought arose. Ray's breathing hastened as a sense of urgency came within him.

He suddenly thought of someone to consult and the first person or rather consciousness that came to his mind was,

"Aurora!!, could you hear me??",

He called out Aurora who usually resided in his system.

However, he got no response. Thus, he called once more,

"Aurora!!",

Yet there was no sound, not even the static voice of his system communication.

Ray got agitated and continuously tried to contract Aurora but to no avail. This caused him to finally accept his fate and the fact that he had died.

At this moment, Ray did not feel the sadness one would feel when dead. However, he felt extreme guilt.

The reason? it was simple.

This chapter upload first at NovelUsb.Com

Ray did not have any lofty ambitions like other young men. He desired only one thing and that was the safety and well-being of his mother and sister.

Therefore, being unable to give his mother a worry-free life and not being able to provide his sister a life comparable to that of a princess, broke Ray down.

Thinking about this, tears began to fall from his cheeks.

----

As these thoughts went on within Ray's mind, only a couple of seconds passed in the real world,

Although Ray thought that he was dead as he could not feel any other parts of his body other than his eyes, which too were very weakly working, meaning all he could see was a multi-colored blur.

Therefore, he did not realize that at this moment someone was sitting right next to him. Observing his every action.

Therefore, the moment the person saw tears dropping down his eyes and his eyes opening slightly while a few unperceivable sounds left his mouth.

The person rushed out of the room in hurry to inform a certain someone about Ray's awakening as they were instructed to do so.

On the other hand, Ray's emotions slowly calmed down as his body regained his senses while an overly familiar voice sounded in his head,

"Yawn!, So you are finally awake".

The voice asked Ray.

Meanwhile, Ray was left confused as he heard Aurora's voice in his head.

"Has Aurora also died with me? but no.. isn't she just a consciousness that resided within the system?".

Ray asked himself in confusion as he felt extremely confused about what was happening because he was slowly able to feel his body parts, thus doubting the fact that he was dead.

"Who said I'm dead!!, you can die all you want! But what has it to do with me, you moron".

Aurora shouted within his consciousness in a voice laced with anger.

Listening to Aurora's hot-tempered voice and her words, Ray finally realized that he was not dead and had just woken up after being miserably tired.

However, there were many things that he did not know as he had no memory of what happened after he used the suicidal method to power himself and defeat that burly man.

Therefore, Ray turned to Aurora,

"Please don't be angry Aurora, I was just wondering about me dying, not you. After all you are an all-powerful existence among systems".

Ray coaxed Aurora with some sweet words as he knew that Aurora hated to talk about anything related to her being dead.

Therefore, a very strange occurrence of a man trying to please a voice in his head took place within Ray's consciousness.

Then, after a few minutes of buttering and coaxing Aurora, Ray felt that Aurora's mood was finally stable, so he asked,

"Do you know what happened after I directed all of the mana in my body outwards through my core?",

Listening to this question, Aurora felt silent for a moment.

Because Aurora, who was just asked a question by Ray seemed to be in a dilemma. She contemplated if she should tell Ray or not. After all, it was a very important matter that she had hidden from Ray for quite some time.

Thus, telling it to Ray right now just after what happened, she feared losing the trust Ray had in her.

After all, with them being inside each other's heads and being able to sense each other's emotions the whole time, both of them had become extremely close to each other.

Not only as a system and its user but as a comrade. And in some ways as a family, especially for Aurora who had none and was in a millennia-long slumber before meeting Ray.

'Creak',

Just as Aurora was to speak and come clear with Ray, a creak sounded as Ray and Aurora heard the sound of a door opening and someone walked in.

"Tap!, tap! tap!…"

Since Ray could not move his body as he was too weak to do so, he could only hear and interpret who came to meet him.

Furthermore, from his earlier talk with Aurora, while he pestered her, she told him that he was not in any sort of danger and was being taken care of.

However, when Ray asked her about his present condition and who was taking care of him, she merely stated it to be an admirer with a rather special status.

Aurora's words left Ray confused. Therefore, when he heard the door opening and footsteps approaching, he was relieved to a great extent as he would be able to finally know who took care of him when he was out.

Furthermore, he also wanted to know about what happened and how much time had passed since the camp was attacked.

In short, Ray had a lot of questions, so he patiently waited for the footsteps to arrive.

As Ray waited, the footsteps approached and the person spoke,

"He showed movement just a few minutes ago ", the person asked.

It was only then did Ray realize that there were two pairs of footsteps approaching him,

Ray sighed, "how weak has my perception gotten".

It was only now that Ray realized that, not only did his body feel weak and lethargic to such an extent that he felt all of the cells in his body empty, devoid of any energy,

But his senses such as perception were dulled to such an extent that Ray knew having them or not would make a grain of difference.

Meanwhile, the second person who was behind the person who had spoken before came forward and looked at Ray.

On the other hand, Ray could only assume who was having a good look at him as he could not open his eyes fully.

From what he could make out, he knew that the person standing and observing him was a woman.

The woman then spoke,

"You don't know how relieved I am knowing you are alive and showing some movement".

The woman then muttered, "Thank you for everything, I am trying my best to fulfill your request".

On the other hand, Ray was left astonished upon listening to the voice of the person who spoke to him, thinking of him to be still unconscious.

The reason Ray was astonished was that the woman who spoke was not some ordinary woman,

But one with a rather special status, she was the goddamn princess of Rysal Empire for God's sake.

,m And the same one he was supposed to be guarding on his trip to the Royal City.

This revelation left Ray with a headache even though he did not know how to resolve it.

Right now, he wished to gain strength and know what happened to him during the attack by the invaders for him to be taken care of by the princess of the empire herself.
