Everyone Else Has a System

"First things first, Rheo came here. Since I promised to teach you a new blade technique, I think it would be better to show you first," I spoke, and it made Rheo a bit confused as he looked at me hesitantly.

However, before he could speak anything, a black blade made of dark energy came into my hands and his eyes turned open wide. Adara, Lucas and Amelia also looked at me with a somewhat surprised expression.

\'I kind of forgot that physical manifestation of a weapon isn\'t possible right now… not unless you have an extreme Mana Manipulation capabilities,\' I thought as I spoke,

"Think of this as your weapon and then focus on these areas." I then applied Light Magic, making everyone, including Adara and Amelia, observe me with an expression of disbelief. It was as if they were looking at something which they didn\'t expect even me to do…

\'Well, opposite nature shouldn\'t even exist together to begin with… let alone finding someone who existed who could control it both at once,\' I thought as I sighed before observing the blade and positioning the Light mana at the spots where I removed Dark mana from.

"Try creating this pattern with your Dark Mana and use a little bit of your blood," I said, and he was still observing my magic blade with deep seated fear in his eyes. I then retracted my mana, erasing the blade from there, at which he snapped back to reality before I explained,

"I will be doing that again. You take out your blade and try to create the mana pattern which I just showed you." He looked at me, nodded a little, with that stupefied expression still plastered across his face. I observed him as he took out his blade and he tried creating the same pattern by himself.

Surprisingly, he was able to recreate the pattern by himself, but maybe due to lack of precision, maintaining it was taking a toll on him, so I touched his blade and helped him maintain its structure.

Then I asked him to put a drop of blood in his blade, which he did without much hesitation and then his eyes opened up wide as he looked at his blade before looking at his system.

"Looks like you received it. I hope it satisfies you," I muttered, and he looked at me with a dazed expression before he muttered,

"To give away such a terrifying skill without much hesitation… just who exactly are you?"

I sighed before turning at Cook and speaking,"Man! I wanted to control you indirectly, but I guess I should do it on my own.. Come here." Rheo, who just kept looking at me, then moved back without speaking anything else. Personally, I felt like the question was a bit ticking me off here… I mean, I understand, but how many times has it been now that people have asked me who I am?

\'Maybe I should carry business cards with me or something?\' I pondered before sighing a little and then looking at Cook, still standing at a distance with a terrified expression.

Looking at her, I smiled a little and spoke,"I can bring back the Red Fairies and yeah… they are still alive."

Hearing my words, everyone was confused as their eyesight shifted between Cook and I, and observing her for more than a few seconds, I saw her expression changing from terrified to shocked and then to baffled.

"What did you just say?" she asked with her eyes getting a bit teary as slight hope enters into them.

"I said that, they are still alive… and I can bring them back," I repeated and she observed me with a stupor as she asked again,

"Red Fairies?"

"Yes," I spoke.

"They are alive?" She asked

"Yes," I replied

"And you can bring them back?" She hoped

"Yes," I fulfilled that hope

"Do you know where I sent them?" She inquired

"Yes," I affirmed.

"Are you sure you can?" she confirmed once again.

"Yes."

...

In the White Dimension, a few weeks ago.

"She is Cook Flynn. She died in an accident a few hours ago, which was planned by Demetri in the previous timeline," Elle spoke as she looked at me and then Cook was confused about what was going on around her.

[Author\'s Note: Demetri was that traitor guy from Volume 1. He betrayed the Vampire King and stole the First Vampire Queen\'s Amulet, which later on was taken by Zero after killing him.]

I looked at her and found her a bit familiar and asked,

"What were you doing before you came here?"

"Uh… I was… I was going to the Arcadia Academy for a test… and then something happened… something like a wide range fireball came from the front and then… I was here. What happened? Did I die?" She asked with a really shocked expression as she realised her situation.

I observed her and then calmed her down using magic as I began explaining everything that had happened. The fact that she was dead, and about the timelines, everything else was told to her which she should know.

I told her about the reason she was here, which was her deepest desire and stuff and the fact that she can\'t pass on from here until I help her get what she wants, at which she then looks at me with a wide-eyed expression as I see hope filling in those eyes of hers.
