Hearing Adel’s words and seeing how much she was worried, I stored my stone away and walked over to her, took her hand, and walked away from everyone else. Adel was my first true friend in this world, and I did not want to hide anything from her any longer. I sat her down and set up a barrier around us to isolate us from everyone else. “As you have seen…. I am not a normal demi human.”
“I kind of figured that out a long ago.” Adel said with a teasing smile. I just rolled my eyes as I continued.
“Adel, what I am about to tell you is sothing that is one of my greatest secrets. I am telling you first out of everyone else because you were my first friend and are also my best friend. I do plan to tell Sophie soon, and I will be forcing the others to sign a magic contract to seal their mouths about my transformation. But….” I went to tell Adel everything, but she reached out and placed a finger on my mouth.
Adel smiled at as she pulled her finger back. “First off, you do not need to worry so much. I will protect you with everything I have. While magic contracts are good, with the right skills, they can also be broken. You will need to set up a blood seal contract with those who you do not trust. I will show you how it is done later. But this is a secret. Not many know that magic contracts are breakable if you find soone powerful enough to nullify it.”-.
I smiled and nodded. “Then I will leave it to you to help with that. But to let you know, I am what is called a Dragonic. I am half dragon, half demon. Although I was never originally like this. I once had the blood of my family running through . But now, I am of a different bloodline that has not been seen since ancient tis.
“What you saw earlier was only a partial transformation. I can actually transform into a full pledged dragon. And I will probably have to on the next two bosses, which was why I decided to have everyone else sign a contract. I do not wish word of being dragon to get out as it will cause many people to chase after .” I did not wish to cause the people around to co under attack because people were trying to get to .
“I see… Well, you can be sure that I will do whatever I can to make sure that no one finds out. To prove it, I will also sign a blood seal contract with you as well.” Adel replied with a smile. I couldn’t help but let out a sigh. Adel was always willing to go to such great lengths for .
I lowered my head and fell into deep thought. I do not know if I should do this or not, as I don’t know what it will do to her, but if the system stone works and Adel could begin leveling up and raise her mana, she may be able to live a long, long life as long as she increases her mana pool. I also know I can not keep this system stone a secret as others will also probably find them or already have found them. After all, dungeons are popping up everywhere now.
“Adel…..” I reached into my inventory and pulled out the system stone, and handed it to her. “This is what is called a system stone. It is able to give one a system that allows them to grow stronger by killing monsters. As you level up, you will gain status points that you can then allocate as you wish. This ans you can even raise your mana pool…. Umm… I am not sure of the risks. I am not sure if you will be hard if you use it. But I do know that if people find these and begin raiding dungeons to gain more power, then the world as we know it will begin to change and change quickly. I…. I was born with a system, so I know how they work….”
I was not going to tell her about my infinity mana or anything like that or how I ca from another world since even if that is the case, I was still born on this world, making a legitimate resident of this world. But letting her know that I do have a system will at least allow her to understand that I am not lying to her about this. However, it is hard to prove it.
“A system stone, huh?” Adel reached out and took the stone from my hand. As soon as she did, a blue screen suddenly popped out of the stone. “Ah!?”
I quickly moved to sit in front of it so no one else could see it. The screen had a simple sentence with yes or no buttons. It read: “Use Item?”
“This didn’t happen when you touched it?” Adel asked as she looked up at .
“I think it is because I have a system of my own. So I guess I wouldn’t be able to use it.” This was the only solution I could think of as to why it did not ask if I wanted to use it.
“I see… well… Since others will probably find such things themselves, I do not wish to be left behind if the world as we know it will change so….”
“Wait!” I yelled out as I went to try to stop this stupid, impulsive princess, but I was too late. Her finger had already hit the Yes button, and the stone glowed before turning into a stream of blue light and entering Adel’s body. Her body glowed blue for a brief second before returning to normal. “Adle! Adel!”
“I…. I see many numbers in front of …. A thing called HP and MP….. Words such as strength and vitality and a bunch more things…. Is this the system thing!?” Adel asked in a sowhat excited voice. But as for , I felt like my heart was about to jump out of my chest! I an, yes, I gave her the stone in case she wanted to use it, but I figure she would test the thing out first on soone else before actually using it! I do not know if Adel is crazy or what, but really….
“Faith, are you okay?” Adel asked in a concerned voice. I looked up at her and shook my head as I yelled! “Not with you giving a heart attack!”
