Everyone Else Has a System

Chapter 134 Parasite#4



"What is going on… here?!!" I thought as I stood back up with a surprised expression on my face, healing my body back to normal.

I glanced at Elle and Amon but the screen was still blank, and I then sighed, wondering,'did something happen in Avalon?' That is the only thing I can think of right now.

I then turned towards the people present here and wondered if I could solve their problem here only. I tried checking each and everyone out, but even after trying for a few moments, I still couldn't find anyone I could immediately help, so I just moved to Elle as I spoke.

"In that one month, did you make any progress in that technique of yours?"

She looked at me before shaking her head as she spoke,"I am still trying, but there's not much I could do. I did get about a thousand ways you can fail, though? Wanna hear about them?"

I looked at her with a confused expression for a few moments before asking,"what happened to you? How come you are in such a good mood all of a sudden?"

Though all I got was,"no… it's nothing," before she moved away from here, humming as she moved away. I, still a bit confused, looked at Amon, who was still using the screen to communicate, and asked,

"Why are you using the screen again? Not prying, just curious."

[People here won't be able to handle my presence… that is all. You have your rejection fragment so you are fine]

I saw the message and nodded before wondering if I should do anything else and I finally remembered something and took off my shirt, revealing my green vine tattoo that spread from my heart to all over my left arm.

On the back of my left hand, there was still the white symbol that Lucifer gave me, while on my right arm there was the red coloured magic circle I got after forming the contract with Aelia.

Elle was looking at me from a distance with a blank look. Her face was… flushed red right now…

I chuckled before concentrating on the red circle summoning Aelia. Not even a moment later, I saw Aelia in front of me, stretching her hands as if she was finally waking up from a long nap. Her long yawn kinda looked cute, to be honest.

Aelia then looked at me before speaking,"what is it that you want, right now?" and I chuckled at her nonchalant behaviour. Every time I call her, she becomes even more frank than before with me… not that I mind much.

I then told her about the situation about the minotaur girl and wondered if there was anything she could do about it, at which she made a pondering expression before speaking.

"Rosalyn was the one who was an expert in these kinds of things. If you could get to her castle… which is once again,.. you know where it is, you may be able to find the answer to it."

I looked at her for a few moments before thinking about it and then speaking,"can we really not do anything about it?"

"Hmmm…" she narrowed her eyes at me, as she looked deeply into mine, before asking,"are you really Zero, the Reaper? The one who made me his slave?"

From her eyes, it didn't look like she was joking at all. I looked at her for a few moments before speaking,"I am… is there anything different about me?"

She looked at me thinking something before speaking,"you are getting more compassionate? No… Darling, it's more like you have become more emotional now… or maybe you are letting your emotions control yourself to some extent…"

After that she pondered again before making a bit of an odd expression and I asked again,"what is it?"

"Ah! No, Darling I was just thinking about if it is a good thing or a bad thing… but honestly I don't know. While emotions are a good thing to drive you to do stuff, having them can also lead you to your doom sometimes…so.. Well… that summarizes all that I was thinking," she explains herself while also sharing her opinion.

Hearing her words, I too pondered over what she said. I would be a fool not to notice this after clearly being pointed. Though… I think it would be better to be somewhat emotional rather than not being emotional at all. After all, the only times I had ever been emotional was all related to Lucia… being emotional about something else… is honestly, kind of refreshing.

"Well.. back to the topic on hand, I don't know if I could do something to reverse the whole process, all the more difficult with the lack of power you or I will have in that place… but it won't be exactly impossible to transfer her soul into something else, maybe?" Aelia spoke, and I understood where she was going and I stopped her at once,

"No, I don't want to commit a taboo for just a stranger that I won't even know…."

Listening to my words, she smiled again before speaking,"well… that is all that I can do then."

I heard her and then sighed before speaking,"I guess I will be leaving from here then. Not much more I can do about it… Maybe I will see in the outside world…" My eyes were a bit sad, a bit reluctant, but there is only so much I can do.

I then moved towards that kid and spoke to him about sending me back to the outside world and he nodded before the scenery began changing and I waved at the people watching me there.

When I was gone, Aelia was gone too, with Elle once again left with the rest of the people there as she looked at that kid who seemed like he wanted to say something.

"What is it?" She asked and the boy only replied,"you should speak your mind."

"But I am not even real, am I? I shouldn't interfere with his life too much, no matter how much I feel. I believe he understands that too… hopefully," Elle spoke as she lightly slapped her cheeks and then concentrated back on the spell on which she was working.
