Bab 11: The darkness within you runs deep. You must master it, or become its slave…
As The World System was about ten meters away from Samiel's grasp, something unexpected happened one more time.
"Argh…"
A painful voice sounded.
Samiel was groaning in pain, biting his lips.
Albeit his voice was low.
[Mm… Argh!!!!]
Suddenly The World System screamed out loud.
[What is this pain?]
The World System thought. It was directly attacking and affecting its mind and soul.
It was sure even the Legendary SSS ranks would find it more painful than itself and even die if this continued without stopping.
"You… can live… for a little longer," Samiel muttered with pauses between.
Then he closed his eyes.
The chains that were entangling the World System loosened and disappeared from its view.
[Am I fr-]
However, the suction still continued.
As its body was about 3 meters away from Samiel, all of a sudden Samiel collapsed to his back, while rattling sounds accompanied him.
His right hand also fell upon his chest in the process.
Boom!
The World System's body crashed into Samiel's body.
Thankfully, it wasn't devoured. At the last moment, the suction force disappeared.
[Ergh…]
The World System 'blinked' a couple of times and lifted its head slowly.
Then its eyes fell upon the chains, the chains that were entangling it just a moment ago.
It immediately understood the situation.
They didn't disappear at all. They were always entangling Samiel's body.
[How is he enduring such pain?] A thought came into the World System's mind.
But the person who could answer its question was now unconscious.
Twitch! Twitch!
Maybe the system jinxed it, Samiel's eyelids twitched a couple of times.
Seeing it, The World System froze on the spot, literally.
Finally, Samiel's eyes opened up at the next moment.
He blinked a couple of times, as he tried to regain his vision.
Then his eyes landed on the World System and they opened wide.
"Beautiful."
A single word escaped from his mouth.

"Beautiful."
Samiel was mesmerized seeing the face not so far from his.
He saw a female figure looking at him.
She was…
No, he couldn't describe her with any word.
No words were enough to describe her.
As he stared at her, he felt his soul leaving his body. (Which wasn't possible since it was his soul.)
She emanated an aura of grace and elegance, captivating all who lay eyes upon her. Her physical appearance was striking, with a slender yet curvaceous figure that exuded both strength and femininity.
Her radiant, almond-shaped eyes are a mesmerizing shade of deep, ethereal blue, reflecting wisdom and a hint of mystery. They seemed to hold the secrets of the universe, drawing you in and leaving you longing for more. Her long, flowing hair cascaded down her back in lustrous waves, shimmering with a silvery hue that hints at her otherworldly nature.
Her complexion was flawless, with porcelain-like skin that glows with a subtle luminescence. Her features were delicately sculpted, with high cheekbones, a perfectly proportioned nose, and full, inviting lips that seem to hold the promise of both knowledge and passion.
Dressed in a flowing gown that seems to be made of stardust and moonlight, she exuded an air of ethereal beauty. The fabric clung to her form, accentuating her every curve, while also billowing and swirling with otherworldly grace. The gown was adorned with intricate patterns and shimmering celestial symbols, hinting at her connection to the cosmic forces that govern the world.
"Who ar-"
Smack-!!!
As Samiel was about to speak, the figure landed a punch on his head.
In an instant, Samiel lost his 'soul consciousness' and his head collapsed to the space once more.

[What have I done?]
The World System spoke in a panicked voice. But it still sounded monotonous.
[He has seen my true form!] It spoke once more with panic.
So, this was the reason why she was panicking...
[...] Then 'her' eyes landed on Samiel one more time.
[I hope this time it works. If not, I will really kill him even if I have to die in the process.]
[***** Authority: Memory Manipulation!]
'She' pressed Samiel's forehead for about three seconds. Then let go.
[Hu...]
[It worked...] It sighed in relief.
Suddenly a hand appeared and pressed 'her' forehead as 'she' was frozen. 'She' didn't notice anything at all.
Ten seconds later.
The World System was shrouded in white light once again.
Then it started moving.
Its first words were: [What was I doing?]
[...]
...
[Oh, I remember.]
[First, let's get out of his Mind Space. Then I shall do as I planned.]
Then the World System disappeared from Samiel's Mind Space.
___ __ _
Samiel's Room.
The World System finally was done.
[Now, all of the problems have been dealt with.] It spoke.
[How careless of me to try to erase an innocent without checking everything first.] Its voice was still monotonous.
[To think he possessed that bloodline.]
[I was about to kill the Guardian of the Prophecy...]
[The world would be doomed because of my stupid mistake.]
Looking at Samiel one last time, it muttered.
[Then I shall leave before he wakes up.]
[***** Authority: ***** Teleport]
Suddenly space cracked and a portal that seemed to connect to a mysterious place appeared.
The World System entered the portal and soon it disappeared.
Everything returned to normal as if nothing happened there.
....
....
Slowly, a white phantom materialized beside Samiel, just like on the day he was born.
He gazed at Samiel with a solemn expression.
"This was the last of my power, and the final time I could aid you."
"…"
"The ***** darkness within you runs deep, and it will consume you if you let it. You must master it, or become its slave…"
"I hope you find your way, and that your journey will be less painful than before…"
He paused and then continued with a faint smile.
"My time has come to an end…"
"Farewell…"
"I will wait for you in the other world…"
"Until… we meet again…"
Slowly, the phantom figure dissolved into particles of light and vanished into thin air.
He was gone, perhaps forever.
The silence descended on the room once again.

Samiel's eyelids twitched a few times before revealing his deep light blue eyes.
As he opened his eyes, a strange glint passed through them.
{What is this?}
He blinked a couple of times as if to confirm if what he was seeing was true.
{What in the world happened?} He thought confusedly.
The reason for his confusion was…
{How and when did I get a Status?}
A transparent dark blue window-like thing - a Status Window which you would only get after getting awakened at the age of 7 was now floating above him.
