Chapter 256 - Ch 254 : Ressurection Item
" Ha.. Hahahahahahahahahah"
Ray, who was sitting silently under the scarlet sky, suddenly burst into laughter. However, there was no trace of joy inside this laughter. It was full of self-mocking, and the spirit beasts who listened to this laugh of Ray couldn't help but feel sad for him.
Our beloved side character just lost his two parents. His feeling was very mixed right now. From self-blame, anger, sadness, and even regret. He regretted that he didn't put more care to his parents. Regret that he didn't spend more time with them.
Still, the reality was cruel. His parents have died from the explosion before, and there's no way he could resurrect them back.
If Ray could reverse the time, he would actually choose not to go to KPYDC. Fuck the plot; if he could not even protect his parents, what else could he do here.
Time passed, and slowly the moon rose into the sky. Nevertheless, it seems Ray has no intention to go back.
The girls and spirit beasts were very worried about him, but they knew what Ray really needed right now was some personal space.
Even though they are lovers and friends, sometimes there is something that you need to solve by yourself.
Ray was a bit drunk under the moonlight, his tears had dried up, and his throat was sore from all the crying, but somehow, he really didn't want to leave right now.
But just when everyone didn't know what to do, Aina came to the rescue once again.
[ DING!!! The reward from the completion of the second game scenario will be-
' Shut the fuck up!'
Ray was really sad this time that he didn't even care about the reward notification on his mind.
[ How long are you gonna be like this host? You know, just by being sad like this, it won't change anything.]
[ DING!!! The reward has been distributed.]
[ 1x Ressurection item (Need energy to fully utilize it.)]
[ 1x Time travel permit.]
[ 1x Identity maker.]
.
Seeing Aina didn't care about his feeling and proceeded to distribute the reward, Ray was slightly annoyed.
He was about to close the system tab for good when he realized the word "Ressurection item" on it.
' Aina, don't tell me this is the same as what I think.'
Ray was really lost. Just now, he really didn't know what to do, but now he suddenly got a ray of hope from Aina. He wanted to check whether he was dreaming or not.
[ *Sigh* This is why Aina said that being sad won't change anything, host. You have Aina by your side, so cheer up, host. The Ressurection item was real, but for you to get the energy, it might need some extra effort.]
Hearing Aina's words, Ray's lifeless eyes instantly regained their light again. He pinched his cheek a few times to make sure that he was not dreaming, and after feeling the pain, a relief instantly filled his mind.
Ray felt like a huge burden had been left from his heart. No matter how hard it would be, It doesn't matter anymore. As long as there is hope, Ray definitely wouldn't give up.
He quickly stood up, and after apologizing to his girls and the spirit beasts for making them worried, Ray and the other decided to go back to Maple-leaf city.
There was nothing left to do in the capital city, and staying here any longer would only make Ray remember his failure to protect his parents.
. . . . . .
- Maple leaf city, Ray's room -
After Ray and the other arrived at Maple-leaf city, Ray said goodbye to the girls as he wanted to discuss things with Aina.
The girl felt a little aggrieved hearing this, but looking at Ray, they knew whatever they said would definitely not change his mind.
Now that Ray was alone with Aina in his room, he started to question Aina about what he needed to get the energy for the resurrection item.
" Okay, now tell me what I need to get the energy for those resurrection items."
In fact, Ray didn't really want to keep secrets from his girls. But a thing like the Ressurection item was too much, and he didn't know whether it would be good to tell his girl about this or not.
In the end, Ray decided to keep this thing a secret as he still want to make sure that there was no danger hidden behind this thing.
[ Sure, but first, let Aina explain about something first host.]
[ That guy, Furong. He is not from this timeline. And if Aina was not wrong, he should be from 100 years in the future, where the plot of the third game would begin.]
Listening to this, Ray was a bit shocked. From the start, he had noticed that there was something wrong with Furong. A person who could easily break his barrier and kidnap his parents must not be a normal person and seeing this Furong came out of nowhere, Ray already knew he must have some secret hidden behind him.
Still, Ray never expected that he would be from the third game and from 100 years in the future on top of that.
" Then, if he is from the future, it pretty much makes sense why he could escape from us and take the true villain without getting caught back."
Ray took a deep breath to calm himself. It seems the thing that he was gonna face after this would be something entirely different from what he had ever faced before.
[ Yeah, and if Aina was not wrong, his aim was to take the true villain to the future and spread chaos everywhere. But for that, you don't need to be so worried, host. Xiansheng was no soft persimmon, and he had left some assurance for it.]
[ Now, back to the topic. The energy that Aina said before was currently unavailable in this present timeline, and if you have guessed it before, you are right host.. For that, you need to travel to the 100 years in the future and come to the timeline of the third game.]
