Versatile System Online

"Okay, that's it then," the dean said. Placing his hand on the table, he had found a use for the Nest Crystal.

"What did you finalize?" Old Man Abraham looked and asked. Curious to know what the den had chosen while the dean himself happily pushed his hand forward, saying; "Here you go,"

Old Man Abraham looked in his hand and found a small piece of paper saying, "Armor,"

"Are we going to follow it?" Old Man Abraham turned to the others and asked as never did he expect dean to draw such a wild use for the Nest Crystals.

"Well, using them for armors isn't bad. But we have five Nest Crystals and aren't going to use them all for making armor. Therefore, I suggest that we choose the work for one Nest Crystal each. Such as, with armor being chosen once, we can exclude it in the next draw and draw once more to see what comes up," Amanda spoke as she gave her idea.

Both the dean and Old Man Abraham found her idea to be feasible as both of them nodded to her in agreement.

With that, the draw was held once more as this time, Amanda drew the chit and opened it to look at what was inside.

"Using it to power and support Academy's defensive formations isn't a bad idea," Amanda muttered. The dean nodded in agreement, followed by Old Man Abraham as anything in support of the Academy was taken with good enthusiasm.

"Now Abraham's turn," The dean said as he passed the mantle to Old Man Abraham and pick up one.

Old Man Abraham picked up a chit and opened it. Only to see that inside, it was written; "Help a student by either making an armor for him by using the Nest Crystal or by another way,"

"Hmm...Now that's a good draw," The dean muttered, scratching his chin; the dean went into deep contemplation over what he should do.

"Why are you thinking so much about it? Isn't it clear? Give it to that kid named Ray as a reward. I heard that he did exceptionally in the dungeon clearance mission and also supported you back there without caring for his life. Therefore, my choice would be that kid," Amanda said and presented her support for Ray.

"But wouldn't it bring him too much power?" The dean asked in worry. The dean was worried that if he gave the Nest Crystal to Ray or to any other student then it would overpower them and hinder their natural development.

"Let's do one thing. Instead of giving him the armor, let's call him here tomorrow and discuss it with him. Let's see if he can fuse the Nest Crystal with his system and somehow increase his strength. This way, it wouldn't overpower him and allow him to unlock more of his strength over time," Old Man Abraham suggested.

"That's a good suggestion but what if it doesn't work? Then what do we do?" Amanda asked.

"Don't worry. It would work, he doesn't have an ordinary Austen. There is a reason why he is so powerful at such a young age," The dean shook his head and stopped Amanda as he had complete faith in Ray.

"Okay, what of the Nest crystals that are left," Old Man Abraham changed the topic and asked.

"We use the remaining ones to summon the dungeon monsters and then use their power to defend the Academy," The dean replied. His firm answer not leaving any room for discussion as the meeting was finally concluded.

Meanwhile,

Elite Class Dormitory,

Ray's room,

Ray lay on his bed, talking to Aurora in his consciousness he asked her the question he had asked previously.

"Where were you?" He asked.

"I told you, I was busy," Aurora answered.

"I don't believe. What could it be so important that you ditched me when I needed your help the most? You know I almost died because of that," Ray countered back.

"How should I tell you? You wouldn't understand," Aurora spoke weakly.

"Why wouldn't I understand? You should at least try to come clear. I am your host after all, not some beast that would devour you," Ray spoke. Utterly confused about why his system didn't trust him with such things.

"Now, please. At least tell me where we're you. I wouldn't judge you," Ray spoke again as he asked for her to come clear.

Right now, more than anything; Ray felt worried about Aurora. That's why he insisted on asking what happened so he could at least help her out in one way or the other.

"Okay then listen. Since you are close to evolving into the next realm. I need to support your evolution and as you would evolve, the system would also get an upgrade but for all that to happen, a great amount of energy would be expanded to facilitate your evolution and also to upgrade the system," Aurora told Ray, "Therefore, to complete the energy requirements, I had to shut down occasionally so I could store as much energy as possible,"

As Ray listened to her words, he realized that while he had been fighting monsters and trying his best to get stronger, Aurora was doing the same. Instead, she was sacrificing more than he did. After all, for her to shut down occasionally; was the same as being pulled into a darkness where she would be facing her demons all alone.

Therefore, Ray calmed his heart as his anger subsided. Then, looking at the ceiling, he remembered something that his mother had instilled into his heart,

She had told him, "Son, you will meet various people in life but the best of them are the ones who are ready to sacrifice anything for you," while remembering those words, a tear slid down his cheek as he felt touched by Aurora's actions.

"Ray, if possible. I have a request to ask of you," Aurora asked.

"Tell. What do you need to ask," Ray said.

"If possible. Could you search for beast crystals in the market and buy some so that I could absorb them and use the energy gained to facilitate the energy required? I don't want to be forced into shutdown again," She spoke. Her voice broke slightly as the emotions of fear and depression arose in her heart.

"Don't worry. I will do everything in my power and get you as many beast crystals as possible. In fact, when I will meet the dean tomorrow. I will ask him to find the crystals for me," Ray said as he agreed to help her. Then, he continued, "Also, don't go into stasis again. I can afford to delay my evolution for some time but I can't have you feeling uncontrolled emotions that might affect your mental state,"

"Thank you, Ray," Listening to Ray's words, Aurora thanked him as she felt a warmth spread through her.
