Versatile System Online

Several hours later,

“Yawn”,

Ray woke up after a long sleep. His body was energetic and he felt extremely light. As if he could use the wind to levitate himself as a feather. Furthermore, all of his previous exhaustion was gone causing Ray extreme relief.

Ray stood up from his bed and took a look in the mirror. After looking in the mirror he realized that his appearance was not what he felt it should be. His hair was disheveled, his clothes had spots left due to excess sweat from training after the breakthrough.

Lastly, he smelled. Even he could not bear it. Moreover, the smell was so bad that it was spread within the whole room. Due to this, the room smelled of rotten eggs and spoiled food.

Ray could not take it any further. He hurriedly used his ability to form a barrier and covered the whole room with a barrier. Then, he focused only on the air within the room and enclosed the barrier while slowly condensing the air within.

Like this, the smell that remained within the air also condensed into the barrier and formed a highly compressed stink bomb made of air. Ray then simply stored the bomb within his inventory.

He thought of using the bomb later on as a distraction against creatures with a high sense of smell to disorient their senses using the bomb. However, after storing the bomb,  a system notification appeared in his consciousness.

[Ding!],

-New skill created,

[Compressed Air Bomb:- Uses 5 mana points to augment a barrier to compress air into an air bomb. Causes an area of effect explosion within a 10-meter radius].

p “Huh”, Ray was left speechless.

He created a skill so easily? And such powerful skill at that? but how?. After all, Ray had never created a skill himself. He had either gotten one from the system by completing missions or from leveling up after killing different sorts of beasts.

So it was a first for him. However, as Ray thought about it, he realized that although it was the first time he created a skill. It was plausible for him to do so. Not only was he stronger now, than before. He had also condensed a mana core while his system had also unlocked completely bringing out its full potential and features.

Furthermore, the skill was too good. Not only was the mana expenditure moderately low, but it was also an AOE skill that could instantly use air to damage opponents. This way Ray could use this skill in various ways.

Due to this, Ray’s lips curved up and a smile came upon his face that extended to his eyes.

However, Ray did not linger on it for too long and took a bath before conducting any more research about his system.

* * * * *

Ray came out of the bathtub feeling extremely relaxed. Now that the horrendous smell is gone from his body after the bath his mind felt refreshed and free. He could finally think now.

After changing his clothes, Ray left his room to look for a restaurant as he felt extremely hungry at the moment. It felt as of he had been suddenly starved for weeks if not months.

He found it extremely strange and asked Aurora for a reason about the occurrence of such a strange phenomenon, to this she replied,

“Oh yeah, That’s completely normal for you to feel starved all of a sudden. The reason for you to feel starved is due to the expulsion of impurities from your body. After all, your body forcefully expels impurities causing your cells to consume more nutrients than usual to achieve a hyperactive state”.

Listening to Aurora’s explanation, Ray realized that even augmentation of mana and usage of the system could not change human biology, and even now, different sciences and their laws ruled supreme.

After all, every spell, ability, or any other supernatural action done by humans had some sort of explanation or theory behind it.

Such as, many people could use spells to fly,

However, that was also the product of using either flow of air to counter gravity or manipulation of mass or gravity to levitate and fly in the air.

–         – – – –

Ray sat down at a fancy restaurant and ordered a full course meal that had bread and soup as starters. While the main course contained a nicely seared medium-rare piece of stake along with a serving of mashed potatoes. While the dessert had a moderate serving of rice pudding.

Furthermore, the meat was obtained from the beef of a magical cow that had an extremely soft physique, making the texture of meat melt in one’s mouth.

Hence, as Ray took the first bite, his mouth experienced a heavenly bombardment of flavors right after the extremely succulent meat melted after entering his mouth. Such a heavenly experience made Ray savor and enjoy his meal.

However, that wasn’t the greatest outcome. The greatest outcome was the reward Ray received after he devoured the piece of steak.

It came in form of stat points as a system notification appeared in his consciousness,

[Consumed meat of Mutated Sky Cow],

[Gained Dexterity: 1 point],

Ray was delighted when he saw the notification. After all, if he could gain stat points by consuming the meat of different beasts, he could simply act like a glutton and get stronger. However, he had some suspicions that it was only related to his system and not everyone had this cheat like the ability to gain stat points in such a way. Therefore, he asked Aurora for confirmation if this stat point he had gained was only special to him due to the system or if everyone gained it.

To this, Aurora replied in a slightly lazy voice,

“Yeah sorry for not telling you, you gained the ability to gain stat points after consuming the meat of other beasts and creatures after the system fully unlocked”.

Ray was left speechless, although not by the capability of his system but by Aurora’s attitude.

He asked Aurora with a tinge of sarcasm,

“You could have told me all of this information when you were telling me about the changes brought to the system after fully unlocking it”.

He then continued,

“You worry me Aurora. What if you skimp on some important information someday that could save my life but not knowing it would lead to my death”.

To this, Aurora seemed as if she could not be bothered and she replied in an upbeat voice,

“Don’t worry about that, I will personally accompany you to hell. After all, you are not worthy of heaven”,

“Haha”,

“This-….”,

Ray was stunned and speechless by Aurora’s attitude, she made fun of him while her attitude seemed to be completely unrestrained. Ray found her attitude have a 180-degree shift lately. Making him wonder,

“What happened for her to change like that and come out of her completely introverted shell in such a short period”.

However, Ray could only sigh and wish for Aurora to not skimp on important info. Furthermore, he was also very happy by the fact that Aurora had come out of her shell imposed on her when she slept in a confined space for millennia.

– – – – – – – – – – – –

Little did Ray know that the reason for Aurora coming out of her shell was no one but him. After all, Aurora’s consciousness was connected to his. Allowing her to feel his emotions and thoughts.𝓃𝑂𝒱𝓮𝓵𝞰𝑬xt.𝔠𝔬𝐌

Furthermore, as he had recently broken through and become stronger, the connection between him and Aurora also strengthened. Therefore, allowing her to feel Ray’s emotions which at the moment we’re very upbeat as well.

Therefore, as the system link between Ray and Aurora strengthened, the insecurities and fear of isolation within Aurora also lessened, causing her to gain back her previous unrestrained personality.
