Versatile System Online



"Ray, I have found something," Sirius came out from the nearest shadow, his eyes were completely black while a thick stench of death followed him.

"What is it? What happened to you?" Ray asked, a bit surprised by not only the extent of Sirius's powers but also by the strange behavior displayed by his friend. It was not unusual for him to be void of any expressions but death. Ray had seen enough death and had enough blood on his own hands that he knew that right now, Sirius had likely caused a small massacre and Ray hoped that they weren't humans by any chance or else he would have to deal with even more problems.

"Just come with me, everything will be clear," Sirius urged, a hint of expression on his face; Ray nodded and then followed Sirius into his shadow while Nia just looked at them both with a troubled expression on her face.

She wanted to follow them both and help in solving the issues but she was here, on a bed; helpless and devoid of any strength to even move.

"Get better dammit," she screamed to herself as she tried to activate her ability alas like every single time ever since she had woken up, the system basically showed her an error prompt saying that she wasn't strong enough to handle her own powers.

It was the same situation that had happened with Ray when he had used his bloodline for the first time. His system was turned off and all his abilities were out of his reach but Ray had help and a peaceful environment that Nia did not.

Ray and Sirius travelled from one shadow to another as they finally reached the outskirts of the camp. Over there, they found a young student who had been badly injured and was sprawled on the ground with a letter tightly clenched in her hand.

"What happened here?" Ray asked as he looked around and only saw destruction everywhere he looked.

"A horde attacked her,"

"And?" Ray asked, still not getting the whole thing.

"And she fought against the horde but it proved to be too much for her. After all, it was not a small horde but fifty beasts in the Advanced Tier," Sirius replied.

"Let's take her back, her presence and the timing of everything seems a bit suspicious. I reckon she has some answers," Ray answered and was about to turn back but was stopped by Sirius, "What happened?"

"Lemme show you something," Sirius guided Ray to a couple of corpses. The beasts were scattered on the ground. Their bodies lacerated and torn apart by claws while their beast cores seemed to be harvested already.

"The hell!" Ray screamed as he dashed towards the corpses and looked closely, "Where did they come from?" He asked.

"From the forest, probably the east," Sirius answered.

"Okay, lets go back," Ray said, suddenly very calm. His sudden changes in moods startled Sirius a bit but Sirius knew what Ray was going through and simply nodded. Lifting the girl in a princess carry, Sirius opened a shadow below him. The shadow congregated and bubbled as it expanded enough so Sirius could pass through it along with the girl. Ray was just behind Sirius but before entering the shadow, he used his spatial storage and touched a couple of corpses and stored them in there.

Appearing outside the makeshift camp, Ray sent a signal to everyone and called them inside the camp.

With that, he and Sirius took the girl inside and laid her down on a stretcher while Aliya came running seeing the condition in which the girl was, "First Nia, then Kashish and now this girl. Ray I want to ask if the situation is this bad or wherever you go, trouble and wounded women seemed to follow," Aliya reprimanded in anger as she whipped her staff out and started chanting her spells nonstop.

One rune weaved after another as the spell took form. A white light covered the whole tent as a halo appeared above Aliya's head while the gemstone on her staff shined with resplendent glow. Seeing her actions, Ray took the cue and took a few steps back; only to hear Aliya shouting at him, "You a*shole, take out your potions and put them in her mouth,"

Fazed by the sudden order, Ray got a hang on himself and complied. Taking out a couple of potions from his dimensional storage, he poured them inside the girl's mouth and helped her swallow them down.

As he did, the light covered the girl fully as he body started to heal at a rapid pace. The same happened with Kashish and Nia as Aliya had used an area of effect spell that targeted the injured around her. While Kashish and Nia were already being treated by Aliya, they didn't need the potions and extra nutrients they provided to heal the body but the new girl did or else her own body would start cannibalizing itself to heal. Hence, leading to self induced death.

Done with the potions, Ray stepped back and Aliya got to her work. She cast one spell after the other, using all her mana on the three people around her. Her reserved dipped down rapidly while the injuries on the injured were healed constantly. Only when she a quarter of her reserves left did Aliya stop. Anymore healing and she would have fallen to the ground. Staggering backwards, Sirius gave her support and guided her to the nearest bench.

As Aliya sat down to rest, the stretchers showed movement as the two girls laying upon them stirred awake.

Kashish opened her eyes as she looked around herself. A grayish ceiling and the smell of medicine through her nose. Looking around, it took a few seconds for her to get a hang of herself.

"The forest, weren't we attacked?" She thought to herself as realization hit her, "Shit!" She screamed and stood up. Only to see her vision darken before she fell to the ground.

"Thud," the voice of her falling reached everyone's ears as they looked back and saw her on the ground. Running to her, Ray lifted her from the ground and laid her back down.

A moment later, her eyes stirred open as she looked up and saw Ray's face looking at her with worry. Seeing him, a warm feeling came over in her chest as she smiled lightly but then once again, a sense of dread and urgency came over as she remembered why she had rushed back. Abruptly sitting up, she looked at Ray with her eyes wide open. Her body trembled as swears poured down from her back.

"What happened Kashish," Ray calmly asked, "Why are you so afraid. Calm down, I'm here. Nothing will happen to you, you are safe here," Ray said as he rubbed her back and hugged her tightly, calming her down in the process.

"What happened, tell me now," Ray asked, procuring a steaming cup of tea that had some calming herbs to soothe Kashish and let her open up more.

"Ray, we need to hurry. The head nurse and them all, they are in danger," Kashish finally formed her words but not without sobbing first. She was truly devastated and especially after she had seen Aella get taken away right in front of her eyes after she had tried her best to stop her from being taken away.

"And Aella? Is she safe?" Ray asked. While he asked the question, he himself felt his chest tighten but he controlled himself. It wasn't the time to lose himself in his feeling but the time to take control and lead from the front.

"Ray, she was captured," Those words hit Ray like a train as he felt the ground beneath him slip. His eyes seemed to be red but Ray knew something wet was dropping down from them. He knew he was crying. After all, the shock was too great for him to bear.

On the other stretcher where the other girl, she also stood up but she did so with more care of her own condition. Also, the fact that she wasn't hurt too badly let her heal much better and be in a better condition than the others.

Almost at the same time, the rest of the team members also arrived. Seeing the environment inside the camp, they realized that the situation wasn't good and just stood there and waited for everything to unfold.

The girl had just stood up when Sirius came to her and contacted with her telepathically, not wanting to cause any disturbance to Ray. Only the sound of sobs echoed in the camp and it wasn't Kashish's sobs but Ray's. The sobs were low voiced squeals of rage and anger as right outside the camp, a torrent of lightning and thunder was forming in the air.

The girl handed a letter to Sirius and told him about what head nurse had asked her to relay. Sirius nodded and opened the letter which had the head nurse's warning and her suspicions about the danger in the forest.

Just then, Ray turned around and looked at everyone. He knew what his priorities were. He wasn't a small kid anymore and neither was he weak, "I will kill everyone and everything that stands in the way of my friends and family," driven by this conviction and rage, a chain seemed to have broken inside of him. His mana core swirled in his body as his eyes shone with a dangerous glint.

"Gather everyone, we are moving in. I have had enough of it," With this order, Ray disappeared from sight.
