Everyone Else Has a System

"You are making a really scary face right now, you know that?" Lucas was still smiling as he looked at me before he asked again,"so, care to explain what is going on here?"

I really want to be selfish here and not tell him anything, but the situation requires otherwise. Though, because I would like to get in touch with Elle first to confirm that Amon is gone and we are on our own, I think it would be better not to tell everything to Lucas.

"You might have already known about the Parasites and stuff, don't you?" I asked, and he nodded as he replied,

"I don't know the exact details, but someone defeated an alien, and he talked about a danger coming in the future. What about it?"

"I was the one who defeated that Alien, and the Parasites are coming towards us… Just that time frame of when they would be coming has been blurred," I spoke and he became dumbfounded as he observed me with a blank expression as he spoke,"Wait! Wait! Wait! Let me digest the information first. So you're telling me that you are the one the entire world is frantically searching for? The person who holds the key to the future of the world is you?"

I nodded as I observed him with a confused expression,"this should have been apparent with how Lucifer was behaving and all, no?"

He shook his head and said,"I thought it was about something else totally. I didn't think this and that would be connected… So you are that guy, Zero… as well as the Reaper… as well as a candidate for the Guardian… damn… you are really something…"

Hearing his words, I turned at him with a narrowed gaze as I recalled the previous Lucas. That f*cking monster… I have to recreate that guy, but with this? This kid? Hmmmm… if I had time, I would have helped him get more mature and strong but… me and my shitty luck…

"Just what did I get myself into?" I muttered in a low voice with a slight sigh before speaking,"well, about all that. It doesn't really matter honestly. You can praise me after I finish everything that I want to do… though it would be better if you know about what is going on here."

I then told him about Primordials and their history, along with the Guardians and their history. I did not tell him about my regression or anything related to me, just that he needed to know about what we would be facing in the future.

Hearing my whole story, he turned silent, and I said,"If you go against us and join the Parasites. Just know that I will be the first one to kill you without any hesitation."

I wasn't joking about this, as I know anyone could betray anyone for any reason whatsoever. The previous Lucas was different, he had lost his friends in the Cataclysm against the Parasites, his sister was kidnapped by the Parasites so his hatred for them was genuine but this Lucas… There is nothing that Parasites have done to harm him.

"Why would I do that now? I am a Guardian, remember? Lucifer had already warned me about a Guardian siding with a Primordial and the consequences related to them," Lucas spoke with a confused expression as he observed me.

I just looked at him and then nodded slightly. I don't know what Lucifer said to him. I pray that it works well and Lucas won't do anything stupid. In any case, next is to move my future plans ahead of their time.

"Let's go meet Adrara. We need to talk about something," I said as I headed back to the student council building. With Lucas beside me, I moved along with him into the cabin where I found Adara and Bernette talking with each other casually. Though looking at me arriving there once again, they turned confused.

The previous 4 people were also there as they were talking among themselves this time, but looking at me entering the cabin once again, they narrowed their gaze at me. I observed them for a few moments before speaking,

"Get out of here!"

My eyes were red and like dolls, they simply stood up and left from there without making any noise at all. Adara saw all that, and she looked at me with a slightly serious expression as she asked,"what happened?"

"Many things," I said as I moved towards the nearest sofa and sat there. In the room currently, there were four people not including me. Hera, Lucas, Bernette and Adara.

'Now, where do I even begin?' I thought as I sighed before looking at Bernette and speaking,"call Mark. There is a change of plans."

Bernette looked at me and Adara made a dumbfounded expression as she observed me, casually calling out the name 'Mark', as if I were his best buddy or something. Though before she can speak anything,

"Adara call Amelia and Hera. Can you do me a favour and find out the exact location of Armis, Adam, Christian, and Lilith? You can use this card," I said as I threw the black card which I got from Amelia before.

Hera looked really surprised as she analysed the card and began using it with an excited expression on her face. I nodded before turning to Lucas and spoke.

"Call Lucy here as well… If I remember correctly, Elizabeth should be in her class. Just tell Lucy that Reaper is calling and bring Elizabeth and Annabeth with them."

Then I began calling Eliza and Cristine as well as I turned to Bernette and spoke,"after setting up the call with Mark. Call Irene and Linda as well."

Because I appeared to be in so much hurry, as I began calling everyone left and right, the atmosphere turned really grim as everyone, except Lucas, began wondering what was going on here.

Though before anyone can do anything…

I returned to the White Dimension with Elle standing in front of me with a serious expression. All the other people who were in there were standing behind her, looking extremely serious as well.
