The King's Mandate: Anomalous System

Chapter 64: Unsealing Secrets

The light orb waked me up. The orb comes every night and flies around me, or preferably my face.

I couldn't sleep after that, so I researched programming. It can be easy if you understand the basics, but it gets complicated as you learn more.

It was morning before I realised it. I went to school, nothing interesting happened in school. I logged into LWO and levelled up with Elena, and Elena also levelled up. The same thing happened today, I went to school, and now I logged into LWO.

[Welcome To Len World Online]

"Das"

[Hello Adas]

They both greeted me with the same face.

"Are we going to level up again today?"

"Which level are you at right now?"

There is no level for me. They are just a number for me; I changed my level to 32.

"You are already 32. I am also level 48."

"There are still some days left before the world 0 events."

"It's this Sunday"

World 0 even will start on Sunday, as soon as the server opens. It's Wednesday today. There is also a boss raid today, but Elena doesn't seem interested in participating.

What happened to my greedy girlfriend?!

"So what are we going to do today? Want to go caf."

"No"

"...."

Where is my usual girlfriend?!

"Let's go to the beach."

"You have taken a liking to the beach now, huh?"

"It's beautiful, and I have one more ticket left."

We went to the beach. Elena rented the beach. Of course, Lily is here too.

"So what's wrong?" I asked.

"Huh?"

"You brought me here because you want to tell me something, right?"

"How do you know that?!"

"You are easy to understand."

"Stupid Das. You should have said something cool like 'It's the power of love,' I would be happy if you said that"

"So, why did you bring me here?"

"I want to see your naked body."

"Looks like there is some kind of error with my hearing system. Can you repeat it?"

"I want to see your naked body."

"I can hear it fine. Maybe there is something wrong with your voice system."

"Das!"

"Yes?"

"That's annoying."

"Why are you talking about getting naked!"

"I mean in your briefs. We are on the beach, so we have to wear swimsuits."

"Then say that from the start!"

We changed clothes. Elena is wearing the same thing she was wearing that day.

"Your body looks very handsome."

"Only my body?"

"Your body in the game is so hot."

"So you are saying I don't look handsome in the real world?"

"I haven't seen your body in the real world."

"My real body is more fit than my game body."

"You mean these abs too?"

"Yes?"

"How come you never told me about it?!"

"You never asked!"

"Let me touch you next time."

"No, thanks."

"Why?"

"It's embarrassing!"

"You touch my breast every day; even today, you squeezed them."

"You are the one who asked me to do that!"

"I am touching you next time we meet."

"...."

I shouldn't have said that.

"I told Selena about us."

"....."

"She said she wants to meet you."

"Am I going to die?"

"She won't kill you...I think"

"What else did she say?"

"She said, 'Our parents are lawyers, so they will clear everything up later' or something like that."

"She wants to kill me!"

"She won't. I will save you."

Don't act cool, dammit!

"When are we going to meet her?"

"Once her exams are over."

"Around a month?"

"Yeah"

"What else did you tell her?"

"She asked me many things about you."

"Like?"

"Your age, address, contact information, your scores, and your family background."

"I don't want to meet her."

"I didn't tell her about you being the heir to the royal family."

"Well, thanks for that!"

"Don't worry; she is a good sister."

"I can tell."

"Shedo crazy people surround me.

Why do crazy people surround me!

"Why is that?"

"I don't know, but it's because of me, I think."

"Huh?"

"She doesn't hate males in general; she only hates those who come near me."

"Something happened when you were a kid?"

"I don't know."

We were having a serious conversation, but there was someone who couldn't read the mood.

Why the hell is she sitting on her head!

"What's wrong?"

"Nothing is wrong."

"You are staring at my head. Is there something on my head?"

"Yes, there is. I will take it off."

I grabbed Lily, or I wanted to, but...once again, it reminded me of that day.

"What's wrong?"

"There is nothing on your head."

I took my hand back, but Lily grabbed my finger and put my hand on Elena's head.

"Why are you patting me?"

"No reason."

"What should we do now?"

"The world boss raid will start in an hour."

"We are not participating, anyway."

"Is there something you want me to say?"

"There is something I want to ask."

"What is it?"

"First, lie down."

"What?"

"I will give you a lap pillow."

She sat down on the sand...am I going to put my head on her bare thighs?

"What's wrong?"

She hasn't realised how bold she is acting.

I did what she told me and...Lily sat on my chest.

"Feeling comfortable?"

"Yeah"

Lap pillows are the best thing in the world. Her skin is so soft and cold.

"It's beautiful."

"Yeah"

The sun is about to set. I want to do this with her in the real world too.

"Is it safe to sit...sleep here?"

"As long as we are not in the water, the monsters won't attack."

"I see. So what you want--"

"Hey Das, did you know that someone cleared all the floors in the raid this Monday."

"Is that so?"

"Yeah. There is a total of 666 floors, and the player who cleared was wearing a mask."

"..."

"I wonder who it was"

"I wonder as well."

My identity is safe, right?

"I want to ask you something."

"Ask"

"When did you fall in love with me?"

"That's embarrassing to answer."

"Tell me, I will tell you too."

"Huh?"

"If you tell me when you fell in love with me, I will also tell you when I fell in love with you."

I want to know!

"Now tell me."

"Even if you ask me, I don't know when I fell in love with you."

"What's with that answer!"

"I think I fell in love with you on the first day we met"

"Love at first sight?!"

"Not sure."

"I am a plain girl. I am not beautiful. There is no way you fell in love with me at first sight."

"You are saying that again. Listen, Elena, you are beautiful, really, really beautiful. I love you because it's you because of the way you act. I love everything about you, so don't call the girl I love so much, plain. Okay?"

"Stop saying embarrassing things!"

She covered my face with her hands.

"You are the one who asked me. Now it's your turn."

"I am not telling."

"You promised!"

"I am embarrassed right now."

"I was embarrassed too!"

"I am not cool as you to say stuff like that with a straight face."

"...."

"I will tell you some other time."

"Fine"

I glanced at Lily; she was making a cute face.

[I agree with Elena. You don't realise when you say cool stuff]

Am I really that clueless?

"What's wrong? Why are you smiling?"

"It's nothing."

"No. It was like you were looking at someone and laughing."

"...."

Elena will know one day. I have to tell her about Lily one day. Should I tell her now? I want to say to her about world 0 too.

"Lily, can you show yourself?"

"Who are you talking to?"

[As you wish]

"There is something on your chest!"

"Elena. This is Lily, my pixie."
