[Are you kidding ? You expect to see the status screen when I had to nerf it by 99.99% just to make it compatible with you?]
’Wait, what?’
’What do you an by nerf it? You are saying you had to weaken yourself to be compatible with ?’ I said, a hint of disbelief in my voice.
’So, I am not even compatible with a full power system?’ I murmured under my breath.
’Well, there is no point crying over spilled milk.’
I let out a sigh and took my phone out of my pocket and started typing in.
Jake you and your whole family are invited to my house for dinner. Be there before 8,
I pressed the send button.
Ding!
Not sent!
Oh great, the system said I was brought back so hours before my death, and as much as I rember at that ti I didn’t have balance, so now my ssage couldn’t be sent.
’Well, whatever. I will just load my sim and send it again.’ I thought as the system spoke up,
[Why do you want to invite him over?]
’Oh, about that. When I found myself in the classroom after my death which you said was real. I didn’t want to believe that my father had died and also that I just let the goblin kill without even trying anything.’
[It is understandable. I have seen many people who didn’t believe their own death. So even went as far as to kill themselves to test the reality of their death.]
’That’s crazy.’
[That’s right. It is crazy.]
’Anyway, from what I have seen before my death. The goblin with his weapon coming in from the door and those spider-like legs which destroyed the roof. I don’t think it was only our house that was attacked. There must be a lot of casualties.’
[So that is why?]
’Yeah, I can’t save everyone but I can still protect those who are important to .’ I said as I walked to a mobile shop located near the school.
"Hi, how are you?" I greeted the shopkeeper.
"Fine, young man. What are you looking for?"
"Can I load 500 bucks in my SIM card?"
"Sure, young man."
After I got my balance, I called Jake’s mother.
"Hello, is this Mrs. Jake’s mother? My na is Rael."
"Oh, yes dear. What’s the matter?"
"Ma’am, my mother has invited your family over for dinner. We have prepared so food, and we will be waiting for you."
"Is it fine? I would not want to trouble you."
"It’s no trouble at all, ma’am. Please don’t mind. It would be our pleasure to have you over."
"Then we will be there, dear."
"That’s great, ma’am. Thank you."
"Ok, bye."
I cut the call.
’Jake’s mother is a bit weird. She is always worried about troubling others even when soone is inviting her over. She is so kind.’
I opened the ssage window and started typing,
Jake, you and your whole family are invited to my house for dinner. Be there before 8,
I pressed the send button and the ssage went through successfully.
As the ssage was sent, the system spoke up,
[I understand everything but I still don’t get how you believe now when I have said the sa thing earlier too, and even gave you a proof.]
’Huh, are you talking about that "not a dream" thing?’
’As I said before it was my first ti witnessing soone’s head being blown off like that. I couldn’t take it. So, I didn’t want to believe the reality, but after a while, I couldn’t ignore the fact that my dad was killed and the monster was still in the house.’
’So, when you showed the proof, I finally realized that what had happened was not a dream.’
’But, now that I know that this is a reality, I need a way to defend myself and protect my family and friends.’
’And, I am sure that you will help , right?’
’You are a system after all.’
[Of course, I will help you. But, you should know that there are two kinds of systems. One who is bound by rules and the other who is free and does anything.]
’And, you are the latter, right?’
[You have great intuition. Yeah, you are correct.]
’Great, we will talk more later first I have to et soone.’ I inford the system as I stopped in front of a hotel.
[Soone?]
’Yeah, Soone special.’
