Everyone Else Has a System

"Still… that is really something. You are a kindred soul, aren't you?" asked Pride as she observed me and I turned at her with a questioning gaze. She smiled before speaking.

"You are trying to save even monsters like us. You could have left us for all the world's care, but you did not."

She then smiled as she focussed at me as she slightly bent forward and I looked at her and sighed before speaking,"just trying to get all the help I could."

Though she smiled with a mischievous smile as she muttered,"is that so? Guess that is what we are going to go with then."

I sighed before we continued walking towards her castle. She was curious about a lot of things, and I satiated all her curiosity, which made her giggle a lot before both of us reached her castle's throne room and then she moved a bit forward and turned to me.

"So… I guess welcome to my wonderland. What are we going to do next?"

"Your powers are related to people's emotions and desires and honestly, below Count Parasites, most of the Parasites have a common emotion. That is, to make sure their race survives.

Some Count Parasites, almost 20 to 30%, end up having some desires of their own. Or more like in order to evolve to Viscount Parasites, they need to have at least a desire of their own. Well, that means that above Count Parasites, all the Parasites will surely have a desire which in turn means they can be manipulated.

That includes Viscount, Duke and Royal Parasites. So… you can only fight against Viscount Parasites," I explained her the enemy which she should be concentrating at, using the best of her ability and she nodded before questioning,

"What about the Duke Parasites? Why not them too?"

I chuckled a little before patting her head slowly and speaking.

"A Viscount Parasite has the same power level as a King of Netherrealm. Normally you won't even be able to touch them, but with my help, I can decrease their power level by a grade or so. This way you will have a chance… but with Duke Parasite… I doubt you can even survive even a second on your own. Let me handle that one, will you?"

At my words, a visible fear appeared on her face as she gulped as she asked,"you are not joking are you? Is that level even possible?"

I looked at her and made a sad smile as I spoke,"yeah… And there is someone above them as well… and possibly someone stronger than them too… We are lucky.. Or maybe I don't know. Though, with a conflict of this level, I doubt they would send even a Duke Parasite, forget about those above them. But I am preparing for a Duke Parasite, just in case." She nodded at me, but there was a lingering fear in her eyes as she observed me and spoke,"what if we get a Royal Parasite or something?"

"Then consider that we are dead even before the fight begins. I will run to Planet Vermillion without any hesitation… and if he follows me there too, I will use all my moves and sacrifice myself in exchange for providing the surviving races a chance to improve," I spoke with a decisive tone… though…

"Stop overthinking about it, okay?" I spoke, and she looked at me with a slightly fearful look but still nodded as she gulped before asking,"what is it that I have to do?"

I saw her attitude changing when she heard the power level of our enemy and I smiled before speaking.

"First, we will need a rune that is placed not only on this castle but also in each and every building of this island. Then we will place successive runes on them, also below and above the floating island. Also, I will need you to go on an expedition for me. As the Queen of Envy, you have the perfect ability to do so…. What I want you to do."

She made a bit of a curious face as she spoke,"what expedition?" and I looked at her before explaining what I had planned for her.

Hearing my words, a fear filled expression appears on her face as she shouts,"Are you crazy?!!!"

Her eyes were wide open as she takes a couple of steps back and I try to explain,"listen to me-"

"NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! That is clearly suicide! There is no way I am going to THAT place. That is clearly asking me to go and kill myself… no, it is worse than that! No way I am doing th-" Rejecting me frantically she was continuously glaring at me with fear and horror mixed in her gaze, though I threw a bait,

"I will help you find a way to return to your previous form."

"What?!" She looked at me as words failed to come out of her mouth and I smiled as I repeated my sentence again,"I will help you… find a way… to return to your previous form."

By previous form, I meant the human form she was before she became a monster after coming to Netherrealm. I smiled at her as she made an expression of disbelief.

"You are lying!!!" she shouted as her brain processed the information I just gave her and I smiled before speaking,"I can't exactly return you to your previous form-"

"See! I knew it! You are-" she cut me off as I was speaking, and I continued without caring,

"BUT!! There was a way to create an artificial intelligence and transfer the monster's intelligence and feelings into that artificial intelligence. Surprisingly, I knew the person who accomplished it… he used to work directly under me before." She looked at me with a dumbfounded face as her brain was confused at what to do now… she just looked at me as her expression changed from hopelessness to defeated one and I chuckled out loud…

"So, I take it as we will go with the initial plan?" I spoke with a smile on my face and she glared at me as she warned,"but if you are lying to me… you know that I will haunt you, don't you?"

I could only chuckle as I spoke,"Trust me, will ya? Aren't I a kindred soul?" making her glare at me before she sighed as her body fell on the floor

-Thud

as she muttered,"Just what did I get myself into?"
