Everyone Else Has a System
Chapter 47 One Long Night#11 Dungeons

Dungeons, huh? From what I remember, well before the first Cataclysm people called the central den of the monster zones as Dungeons. A total of 24 dungeons are present on planet Vermillion, corresponding to the 24 danger zones.

What were the Danger Zones? They were the places where an S grade monster or higher ruled over the other monsters. The more you move to the centre the more dangers you will come across. At the very centre of the danger zone, there exists a central building where the ruler monster sits. The reason they called it a dungeon was because until that time they could only reach the central area of a couple of danger zones, each of which coincidentally had a dungeon each.

Now, about the Dungeon of Niflheim, it was ruled by Borda, the Nightmare of Black Fabrications. Borda was one of the most beautiful and deadly monsters out there, specializing in fabrications and entrapment. Her fascination of creating a masterpiece out of living beings was something that made her one of the most feared beings in this world.

Even after the arrival of the parasites, her fear didn't even decrease by one bit. In fact, even the parasites couldn't kill her, making her danger increase by a notch.

Although the one who killed her was… Annabeth herself.

...….

"I will help you master the Moon Style, but there is something I need you to do for me in return… Tell me Reaper, have you heard about the Dungeon of Niflheim?" Elle asked me with a serious face and I look at her wondering why and how she knows about that dungeon.

-Dash

-Swish

She attacked me and I dodge her attack with ease again and then not holding back she once again attacks even faster than before

-Swish

-Swish

-Swish

"There are 7 Phases of the Moon Style," She speaks and I look at her sighing as I answer her,"there are 27 Phases of the Moon Style that I know of."

At my words, her eyes widen a bit before a smile appears and then she speaks again,"I have always thought of…"

-Swish

"... increasing the ways of using the Moon Style and based on my calculations, about 35 styles can be created."

-Swish

-Swish

Dodging her attack using the same moon style which she was using, I analysed her move. She was improving at a rapid move and I wondered if she improved enough in real life. Will I need to protect her in the outside world?

"I have infinite mana here and the skills doesn't tire me out one bit. Also, the fact that I can't die gives me an up to use even the most dangerous moves without holding back…" she speaks reading my mind once again and I look at the system… I am not really surprised at this point cause no matter how much of a genius you are, you can't cheat the mana and stamina usage.

If she was really as strong as she is right now, then those demons would have been butchered by her a long time ago. But still… I am genuinely surprised.

"I need you to save me from that dungeon," she speaks and her intensity of attacks increases again. My eyes widen at her words wondering what she was trying to speak…

"What do you…"

-Swish

-Swish

-Swish

"...mean by that?!" I was really confused by her words. Just what did she mean by saving her? Isn't she like… outside there with Anna and the others?

"I am but at the same time I am not. Listen to me Reaper, my body which is present in the outside world is only half while the other half is trapped in the Nightmare of Niflheim. Since both you and I need to solve each other's problems, I need you to save me from that dungeon," She spoke angrily, and hatred filling her eyes.

My eyes widen as I realise something very crucial… The fact that Borda was so strong… what are the odds that she consumed the potential of Elle after her death?! But is that even possible?

[Yeah. There are many ways by which ones potential can be transferred. Maybe that monster has a system based on that? ]

'This makes things a bit more complicated,' I thought as I begin moving faster too.

-Swish

-Swish

"Is that your desire?" I ask with a serious face and she shakes her head as she clearly denies it making me even more confused. If that isn't what she wants then, exactly what…

"What I want is simple actually. You said that everyone who you will save will come here, right?" She asks as her serious expression changes to a happy-nostalgic one.

"Yeah… but would you be able to meet her? I don't even know about that," I answer hearing her words. I kind of knew that her lingering desire might be to see Annabeth who is going to die in the future but isn't that like far ahead into the future?

"It's fine, I can wait. Sis waited for me for a long time. I can do that for her too," she speaks with a smile as the mana surge calms down. I observe her pure innocent smile and I cound't help but gulp a bit as I think,' beautiful!'

Hearing my thoughts she smiles a bit as she speaks,"I know I am beautiful."

"Tch! Narcissist both you and Anna. Birds of the same feather, I guess," I speak with slight annoyance at her behaviour.

"Hahahaha… say what you want, it won't affect me, now that I know your true thoughts," She speaks as she giggles at me and I couldn't help but shake my head before speaking,

"So, what now? Am I allowed to go out or there is anything else you want me tell or do? I still haven't completely helped you out of your problems, you know?"

"Hmmm… Teach me whatever you know about the Moon Style actually. It would be better if I have a head start so that next time you come, I can teach you Moon Style better," she speaks and I wonder about why is she so fixated on teaching me that.

"Well isn't that obvious? I want you to increase your chances of saving me and protecting me until the time comes and I can meet my sister," she answers with a blissful expression on her face as she fantasizes about meeting her sister.

'Guess so…' I then looked at the system before speaking,"How much control do you have on this white dimension?"

[Almost everything except what is related to the souls and I don't have any control on you too except that I can revive your soul indefinitely here]

"Can you create a moon here and make it night time and also create a shallow waterbody on the ground?" I speak and the next thing I see is water rising out of nowhere and the level reaching almost to our ankles while the white dimension turns into a calming night sky with a magnificent full moon present in the sky.

The water reflected the moonlight and mana density increased by a bit before everything came to a halt.

"Move far," I speak and she moves about a 50 metres away and then I look at her again and speak, "More"

This time she moves about 100 metres away and I signal her to move a bit more far before she reaches about 125 metres away.

"Sigh… Amon, do I have to access to unlimited energies too?" I ask with a slightly exhausted face as I have already drained most of my mana.

[Yes]

Then I channel a huge amount of mana into my body all at once… forcing open all the channels at once…

By this method, most of my mana channels will be damaged but it will still be enough to perform the moon style upto the point which I know.

"Moon Style: Night Harvester's Season"

A combination of almost all the Moon Style skills which I know of. It requires insane amount of mana and stamina or else it will fail.

'Though it was Anna's one of the weakest moves back then…' I think before smiling and my eyes turn bluish white and I take a stance with overflowing mana slowly escaping my body.

'First Step,' I think as I begin slashing the air with a mana sword… in a motionless yet seemingly movable. An ordinary slash that you can never see coming…

'Second Step,' Followed by a hundred sword slashes that all cut in the same place where the first cut took place.

'Third Step,' A storm of swords start coming all around me and begins swirling around me.

'Fourth Step,' I make another slash, however this time it was filled with strength more than speed making it visible.

'Fifth Step,' A thousand slashes occur in the reflection within the water. This step makes sure that even if your enemy had moved behind, as long he was there a few moments before, he would be hit by the attacks.

'Sixth Step,' The sword of the storm starts attacking at random places all over the place, except towards me creating a deadly combination of attacks around me.

And finally…

'Seventh Step,' I jump and then start dancing into the storm jumping and taking one sword after the another as I dance and slash everything all around me. Inside that random motion, I could reach and connect with everything I want.

That ground that can kill everything brutally, was my playground right now.

After a few moments, I smile a bit and then click my fingers loudly

-Click

And all the swords scatter and break creating small lights all around us falling down enhancing the beauty of the scene.

Elizabeth looks at me with a dumbfounded face as she observes me like a maiden in love. She jumps towards me hurriedly holding my hand and speaking,"Once more… I want to learn and master that. What the heck was that?! That was so beautiful!! I didn't think that all the first seven phases could be combined like that…. That was… That was… I have no words…. Teach me! Teach me! Teach me! Please! Please!" Like a child she started yelling at me and I took a few steps back as I looked at her childish behaviour.

"You could've just ask that normally, you know?" I speak and then she become obedient and nods as she stands there. Though the smile on her face is making me wonder if she is listening to me or not?

"Sigh… all right. I'll go through everything one by one, okay?" I speak and she nods with full attention.

From that point onwards, I taught her each and every step and the correct way to do them. Prodigy as she was, she not only learnt them very fast but also pointed out a few mistakes in them, not that I mind.

It took some(a long) time but we both increased the efficiency of the attack and flow, and aslo reduced the amount of mana it requires by some margin. By the end of the training, she learn how to perform the attack and then she said she wanted to perform this move once infront of me.

I nodded at her and stood some distance away from her, about the same 125 metres.

She then breathed in and spoke,

"Moon Style: Night Harvester's Season"

"First Step," she slashed not only on her front but on her back.

"Second Step," not only hundred swords slashed front but also on her back and within the reflection.

Then mana began collecting all round her and noticing the difference, I increased my distance from 125meters to 200 metres.

"Third Step," The storm was larger and fiercer.

"Fourth Step," She doesn't makes any slash but a few of the swords from the storm attacked both the place in front of her and in the reflection below it.

"Fifth Step," About thousand slashes occur in this step all around Elle within the filed of the storm.

"Sixth Step," The swords attacking all around without any random movements and the swords moved according to Elle's wishes.

"Seventh Step," Finally Elle and the sword both moved in the storm in the direction Elle wanted, creating a manual sword storm all around the area.

After that she smiled so bright that even my heart started fluttering. She moved towards me in a hurried manner and spoke with her bright wide eyes,

"That was really exciting!!!"

'Even though it requires an insane amount of mana and stamina? Even if I learnt this move, I won't be able to perform it unless there are very special conditions… though I wonder if I could use it in my sacrificial set?' I think and she glares at me before sighing and then speaking,

"I will learn the next steps by myself while trying to replace a way to use the move under normal conditions. You should leave now, I guess it will take quite some time to reach that point.." she then began speaking to herself as she moved away from me.

In an instant, the background started changing again and what came in my vision…

-Clash

…was an attack of Viscardi blocked by Rheo in front of me.
