"Still, I don't understand", Aliya objected as she scratched her head.
"Do you want to explain it again? Or should I tell you in another way?", Ray asked in concern as he tried his best to be as cooperative as he could be.
"Could you please explain it all in a bit more simplified way?", Aliya asked.
"And what about you all? Do guys need help as well?", Ray asked the others as he knew that they didn't understand much either.
Hearing Ray, they also nodded in agreent.
"Okay, no worries. I will simplify it and make it easier to understand", Ray said with a smile and started to explain from the start.
"So first of all, when our world linked people's consciousness to the virtual world. A new world opened up in the form of System Online as only this world was capable of handling our consciousness without harming us", Ray explained as he continued,
"A hundred years have passed since then. We don't know why only System Online was capable of handling our consciousness but as humans, we have benefitted from it the most. We have strengthened ourselves, changed our customs, and advanced beyond our reach. Just thanks to the Systems gained in System Online and the resources obtained from them",
"However, all of this cos with a price. The resources and power obtained from System Online are used, and the closer both worlds beco to each other. Causing the balance between the planes in which they exist to beco disturbed. It is now disturbed to an extent that there are only two ways to fix it",
"First, one world ends or consus the other world. Secondly, both worlds rge into a singular world",
Ray said as he stopped and let everyone take in and process what he said.
After a few seconds, Tim raised his hand as he asked,
"When you were explaining before, you said that the similarities between the world's increase and all of that, but now you said that the worlds co closer to each other. I don't get that",
"Yeah, let clarify it. It's hard for as well while what I am telling you is sothing told to by soone else", Ray said as he apologized and cleared his statents as he continued,
"So first of all, from the similarities, what I an is the use of mana and abilities along with spirit energy in our world. As for the part, getting closer and causing disturbances to the planes. It is all because of the similarities", Ray answered as he looked at Tim and waited for him to digest the information.
After a whole minute, Tim's facial expression eased a bit as he nodded in understanding.
"Now that is done. Let explain the final part. So as before, we had two options and we chose the second one. That is to rge, but we had so ti before that. However, now we don't. As for why? It's because of the incident today", Ray said as he cleared everything with a smile.
Not showing a hint of hesitation or panic. All that, just to keep everyone calm.
On the other hand, everyone understood what Ray had to say and was quite shocked by it.
"Okay, let's get to the infirmary and get Tim fixed while we also held our injuries", Ray said as he left and let everyone interpret things and co over the shock.
While all of this happened, within Ray's consciousness. Aurora was laughing like anything,
"What is wrong Aurora? Ever since I explained them, you have been laughing like a donkey", Ray asked as he teased Aurora,
"Hey! You are a donkey, a big fat donkey. Also, what is there not to laugh about? You practically made a fool out of your teammates. You could have at least told them so truth", Aurora responded in anger as she explained why she laughed so much.
"I had to Aurora, there is no way they will be able to face the truth. You know what happened to . That thought stayed on my mind for a whole week. Thankfully you helped out of it, but what of them? They don't have you", Ray said as he sighed in pain.
"To think that within so ti, all of this would change. Destroyed beyond limits with blood reigning all over",
"Ray, don't fret over it. You know it's destiny. Every world in the universe had to face it. Who would have known that Earth would face it last?", Aurora said as she comforted Ray.
"Still, to think that the worlds who had left System Online and advanced so much still eye on that place. I fear when the rge is complete, I fear how all of those worlds would be upon us. Just so they could have a piece of System Online", Ray said as shook his head to get rid of negative thoughts.
Looking at Ray falling into another never-ending argunt with himself, Aurora intercepted as she spoke,
"Ray, I have told you countless tis that those worlds would try to either take control of Earth or destroy it but they won't be able to because you would be there to stop them",
"But Aurora, I still don't understand. Those worlds also entered System Online and got power transferred to their world. Now, they have all of it. Strength, magical treasures, and whatnot. So why aim for our world when you have all", Ray asked in anger.
"Because they want more. Let tell you Ray when the rge is complete. Our world would gain everything within System Online, new treasures would be born. New magical creatures would settle in this world while all of the legacies and magical treasures from System Online would be brought to our world",
"Not only that, Earth would have the advantage of having cooperation from the people of System Online. Earth's total size would increase while mana would seep into the world. All of this would let Earth have the best foundation among all the other worlds. Therefore, the other worlds are afraid, that if given ti. We would grow strong enough to capture and conquer other worlds", Aurora explained as she tried to calm Ray down and explain to him the benefits of rging with System Online.
"I get you Aurora, but it still pisses off when I think about it. To think that the purpose of System Online is to transfer strength to Earth. To make us capable of resisting those worlds that eye our resources while we are infighting amongst ourselves. Not to ntion so people defecting to those advanced races in a bid to get so ager strength",
Ray said as he clenched his fist in anger.
With that, Ray walked to the infirmary to get so wounds treated and to submit his mission report to the head nurse.
While within Ray's consciousness, Aurora sighed as she said softly,
"I know it's frustrating, but be thankful that you don't know everything. Of the carnage that would happen if not for System Online".
anwhile,
Within the eting hall, the dean sat in silence as he waited for everyone to arrive.
He kept massaging his head as he thought of how to deal with what was to co after. He kept thinking of how to make the students capable enough, of how to train them so they could adapt to the sudden changes that were to co.
While the dean sat in thought, the eting hall slowly filled up as everyone arrived one after another.
...
