Versatile System Online

Days passed by and in the blink of an eye, a whole week had gone by,

During this time, the beautiful young princess of the Rysal Empire would come to visit Ray daily and have a chat with him. Although, it could not be called having a chat as the princess spoke while all Ray could do was listen.

After all, due to Ray’s recklessness, he had been sucked dry of all of his energy, causing his body to go into a temporary state of paralysis so that it could recover itself.

——————-

Over the past few days, Ray’s condition had recovered to a good extent. He could now freely move and utilize about 10 percent of his total strength.

Although he could move freely and also use his abilities, mana and beast souls to some extent. His system was offline.

He could not use his system, and when he inquired Aurora about it,

She said,

“The reason for you being unable to use your system is simple. Your earlier stunt caused not only your body to be sucked dry of energy but it also nearly collapsed your system from overusing it”.

Aurora’s words about the system coupled with the warnings that she had given Ray over the previous week about his deadly stunt told Ray that what he did was not something everyone could do and the fact that even his system was overused made Ray realize how dangerous his act was.

He sighed as his recklessness had nearly killed him this time.

Now that Ray could at least do some sort of movement and get out of bed. He used this as a perfect opportunity to gain more information about what happened that day.

Although he had asked Aurora, she did not tell him anything and said that she would give him a complete analysis when Ray logged out and returned to Earth.

With this, all Ray could do was look for other options to gain at least some sort of information about what happened then as he could not log out of the game until he recovered at least 75 percent of his strength.

With all of this in mind, Ray concluded that the perfect person to provide him with information would be the princess who came daily to have a chat with him.

As for the princess, Ray only had a vague idea about her and the strange phenomenon of him being taken care of by the princess and healers of the Rysal Royal Family.

And the idea Ray had was that either the princess had been saved by him in some sort of way and this was her way of paying her debt or he ended up with her due to sheer coincidence.

However, there was one thing that his mind could not interpret and that was the reason for a princess to have a chat with him.

After all, if the news that the princess of the Royal Family was taking time out of her daily routine just to visit a common young man were to be leaked.

It would cause huge flames to ignite all over the Empire. Furthermore, it would become a hot topic in all of the empire as everyone would discuss about it. From the children of the emperor to dukes and other higher nobles of the empire to merchants and commoners.

This in itself could cause the empire an impending crisis as the nobles would never accept the princess visiting a common man daily even though there is no intimacy between them.

Moreover, it would be a disastrous condition for the princess as well, as all sorts of rumors would go around the whole empire while the majority of the rumors would target the princess, causing her psychological condition a good amount of harm.

Due to all of these reasons, Ray decided to finally have a talk with the princess and ask her the questions that had been eating him inside out.

———————

“What did you say!!!”,

Ray exclaimed in surprise the moment he heard the answer to his first question.

As for the question asked, it was very simple as he had asked,

“Could you tell me what happened that day on your side?”,

Moreover, when Ray asked the question, he could see the eyes of the princess glisten and her mood also changed significantly.

As if indicating that the incident that day was one of the worst incidents to happen to her, yet one of the most exciting ones as well.

Furthermore, Ray could feel from her gaze that the part of excitement she felt was related to him or what he did that day.

Then, the princess slowly started to narrate the whole story while all Ray could do was listen to her story from the start.

She told him that the caravans that were going into the capital and hiring guards for protecting the caravans were all a ruse as the real reason behind all of that was her.

She further elaborated that the guards that were hired were for her protection while the carriages and the goods were only a cover-up.

Although she did not tell why she needed to go through so much trouble just to hire some low-level guards, Ray did not ask.

After all, Ray did not like to push his luck, and just getting to know this much information was considered for him.

Furthermore, he did not want to pry into someone else’s life.

With this, the princess continued her story,

“Then, we all left the trade city and started our journey towards the Royal City. For the first few days, the journey went smooth and good but that night in the forest, the whole smoothness of the journey merely felt like a calm before the storm”.

With this said, Ray saw that the princess was losing control of her emotions. Her eyes started to turn watery while red veins condensed within her sclera making her eyes look slightly bloodshot.

However, Ray did not stop the princess as he knew that she might have truly seen a glimpse of the reality of this world as she was away from the castle and the protection it offered.

Thus, resulting in her having such a reaction. Furthermore, Ray believed that if she got through this, it would make her personality strengthen in the near future.

On the other hand,

After taking a pause, the princess continued,

“Those 3 invaders came looking for us. There were two men and one female. The female silently got past the defenses of the camp without anyone noticing her. She reached out for the main tent in a bid to capture me using the night cover. However, the main tent was a treasure that did not let her in”,

“After realizing she couldn’t get in the women and the two men openly attacked the camp. Since those three were at the peak of advanced tier and were heavily equipped with top-of-the-line equipment and had high-grade artifacts, they easily suppressed the guards who were mostly a whole tier below them”,

Due to this, the invaders slowly backed the guards into a corner while also chipping out the number of guards. Then when the leader of the invaders was just about to throw his large fireball to finish everything, he froze”,

“And that’s when you arrived surrounded by gold like a god”.
