Versatile System Online

"And that's when you arrived surrounded by gold like a god".

Ray was astonished at the princess's statement. After all, anyone would be astonished when someone compared them to a god. Especially when the one comparing him to a god was a princess of an Empire that had a noble lineage spanning over generations.

There was one more thing that Ray noticed. That when the princess mentioned him and compared him to a god, her eyes glimmered with fantasy, adoration, and many expressions that indicated one specific thing.

And that was, the princess completely took him as an idol, a savior, and adored him to quite an extent for such a change in her expression to appear just from a single mention.

Ray did not say anything and merely listened as the princess continued to talk.

"You came floating in the skies, leaving a trail of destruction that spread through the whole forest. Behind you was a destroyed forest while in front stood an enemy that had almost killed us all", the princess said while the sparkle in her eyes intensified and the adoration in her voice reached the extreme.

She continued,

"Although the person in front of you was strong, he was still leagues below you, not even able to harm a strand of your hair".

"You even gave him a handicap yet he was still unable to do anything. However, then he pulled out a potion and did something so despicable that he did not even deserve to be called a human".

At this point, Ray observed the contempt and rage the princess held for the person that he had fought, the leader of the invaders.

Then, the princess continued to explain in detail about everything that had happened, from the leader giving up his humanity for strength and turning into a demonized hybrid creature to Ray killing him and destroying its body into ashes.

Then, the princess's eyes sparkled even more brightly as the adoration she held for Ray intensified,

She said,

"After killing that creature you… yo... you asked me to help you",

Although the words were simple, the princess stuttered when she spoke to Ray, as if she was telling something exciting to her idol.

And that was when she said the last words, the words that made Ray's mind go in circles as even he could not understand why he did such a thing.

"What!!", Ray exclaimed as he was unable to comprehend the fact why did he ask the princess to help him.

After all, he saved her, and from what the princess told him, he seemed to be in a very powerful state at that moment.

And from what Ray suspected, he ought to have reached the perfected tier while being an unclassified being.

As Ray speculated and analyzed the princess, her words and expressions, the princess continued,

"After asking me for help, you fainted on the ground",

Ray now understood why he was being taken care of, but he did not understand one thing as he mused,

"From the words of the princess, I must have immense strength and have been aware of everything as I only killed the attackers. Furthermore, from the princess's words, I even asked the princess for help before losing consciousness",

"Meaning, I was completely aware of everything in my body, and if things are like this, why don't I remember anything".

Ray scratched his chin as he searched his mind for answers, even a clue would be enough to satiate his curiosity. Yet he got nothing.

After a moment of silence, Ray spoke,

"Uhmm.. Your Highness, if I may ask, could you please tell me for how long have I been passed out".

Listening to Ray's question, the princess smiled and propped up her fingers with two fingers raised.

Ray guessed it was her way of saying that he had been out for two days, yet he confirmed once,

" So I have been passed out for two days?, coupled with a week worth of rest that I had, merely a fortnight has passed",

However, the princess differed,

She shook her head and said, "You have been passed out for two 'weeks' before you showed signs of movement".

Listening to this, Ray was once again stunned as his eyes wandered off, his mind blank.

The first thought that came to him afterward was of his family. His mother and sister would be worrying about him at home.

Yet Ray could not do anything as he knew logging out was impossible right now, given his condition.

"You are staying here until you get well",

The princess told Ray stubbornly while Ray nodded. After all, what was the best place to recuperate if not the princess's establishment that had many shadows protecting it?

Afterward, the princess left Ray and went on to do her duties, after all as a princess albeit young, she had a lot of responsibilities upon her.

Ray on the other hand was frowning. His brows creased into a frown while his hand propped onto his chin as he seemed to be in deep thought.

His eyes were as calm as a lake while other than the frown, no facial expression could be seen, completely masking Ray's thoughts.

Whereas, in Ray's mind, he was having a very deep internal struggle regarding what the princess had told him. At first, he was very perplexed by what the princess said and thought of her to be exaggerating everything.

Yet when he asked Aurora about it, she did not deny anything simply saying, "You will naturally get to know the full story when you go back to Earth",

After some time, Ray banged his hands on the table, frustration creeping up on his face. He hated riddles and mystery. More so when it was related to him.

Ray got up and went back to bed. His body was not fully recovered and only had a little of its total strength. Therefore, Ray decided to put the matter at the back of his head and focus on healing himself first.

---------------------

Meanwhile,

In an extravagantly large room adorned with decorations while the whole room had different plushies in it. The room had a pink theme that told the owner to be a teenage girl who still had the naivety of a child.

On the large king-size bed,  a young teenage girl was lying on it while hugging a cute teddy. The teddy was soft and the girl hugged it as if her life depended on it while seeking comfort from it.

If a human from Earth were to look at the teddy the girl hugged, they would immediately know it as one of the toys produced on Earth, not only that, the whole room had an Earthen theme to it.

However, what was strange was that the girl who was a native of the system online had been using Earthly things in a place that was deemed as a virtual world for humanity.

The girl was naturally the princess that Ray had met and right now she was like every other teen one would find and very different from the elegant princess people knew her for.

The princess hugged the bear as she thought of something or rather someone as her eyes sparkled and the tip of her ears reddened while he blushed bashfully.

She then turned to her bear and said,

"Mr. Cuddles, just you see, I will make dad accept my request and let me and my savior live together happily".

--------------

On the other hand, Ray slept peacefully, not knowing that his actions had once again charmed another teenage girl, who unlike others had a bone-chilling status.
