The Idle System (A LitRPG series Book 7): Family Pegaz (classic books for 12 year olds .txt) 📖

he put his thumb and middle finger together and turned his head towards Kelly. “This is an old attack of mine that became useless on stronger people since its requirements are unique.

“This might get a bit gruesome for you since it’ll be your first time, but try and watch to the end.”

The explosion attack needs to get inside the enemy’s body to be effective, but those at Rank 5 and above are more sensitive to Life Power and can stop it.

At Rank 6, their strengthened branches can stop the explosion attack from travelling inside their body even if it manages to get inside. It also can’t work on Rank 7’s and above who have strengthened their cells.

I miss seeing the expressions on people’s faces when using this attack.

John then flicked his fingers, causing the prince’s head to explode.

Any knight or other people who tried to help were stopped by John’s threads. In his Scan, John saw the people’s faces change to shock, disgust, and horror.

After a few seconds, John removed the threads around the knights, put his hand on Kelly’s shoulder, and teleported them away. As soon as John had disappeared, the weather in the capital cleared up.

John and Kelly appeared just outside of the town where Sarah was at.

Kelly looked around. Upon recognising the place, her mouth fell agape. It took her four months to arrive in the capital in the carriage, but only a few seconds to come back.

It didn’t take them long to walk to their house where they found Sarah sitting at the kitchen table waiting for them to arrive. She had seen Kelly in the Scan as soon as she arrived and knew John had teleported her there.

“Right.” John sat down at the kitchen table with Kelly as he spoke. “I suppose it’s time to tell the whole truth.”

Sarah smiled at Kelly. “You might not believe us at first, but we know you’re from Earth because we’re from there, too.”

Kelly’s mouth was wide open—just like every other time she was shocked or surprised and couldn’t keep it in—but after a few seconds, she had tears going down her cheeks while laughing.

They waited for her to calm down. They had felt the same when meeting someone from Earth in a different universe, too. Before that, the feeling of being a foreigner and all alone wouldn’t go away.

Both John and Sarah didn’t want Kelly feeling that kind of loneliness, but they also had to let Kelly feel those strong negative emotions so she had a better chance of surviving as an immortal in the future.

“People like us, who are from Earth, are called Siders in this universe. Only we know that we’ve got some kind of system, like a game interface, inside of us. Mine’s called The Idle System and your mother’s is The Toxic System.”

John then proceeded to tell her what their systems did, the fact that they were immortals, and the truth about the story they told her all those years ago.

They also made their nano armour change into earrings to show their real, young faces. John showed his black star around his right eye and his black nails, while Sarah showed her faint yellow ring around her left eye and her yellow nails, too.

Kelly had plenty of questions to which they answered truthfully.

They then asked Kelly for the truth about her.

“Back on Earth,” Kelly began, “I was born into a circus family and grew up doing all kinds of different things to help the circus. Eventually, I was doing some of the acts as an extra, but it didn’t last long because when we went to Las Vegas, a magician asked if I would become his assistant.

“While I did help him with the show for years, my main job was helping to come up with new illusions. We call them illusions between those in the trade because that’s what they are. We come up with different ways to avert the crowd’s eyes while doing something else, making it look like magic.

“It went pretty well and we were the best magic show in Las Vegas for years, but when I was trying a new illusion, something went wrong and I got into an accident. When I woke up, I was in my mother’s arms with her looking down at me.

“I couldn’t believe it, I thought it was the magician screwing around somehow, but after looking at the house and how it didn’t come to an end, it struck me that it was real.

“I do have a system like you said, but I wasn’t born with it.”

John and Sarah looked at each other and could see different signs of them being shocked.

“When I first killed that bear,” Kelly continued, “that’s when the system showed up. I was surprised since it just appeared out of nowhere.

“It’s called The Illusion System and it can create a complete illusion of anything I’ve killed. I could create an entire army of creatures already, but they can’t do anything other than scare people so I chose not to use it unless there’s an emergency.”

“That explains why I never figured out what your system was,” John stated after Kelly fell silent.

“Is there anything like a counter on the things you’ve killed? Maybe after a tipping point, they could become real?” Sarah asked, but Kelly only shook her head.

“Well,” John started, “I think we’ve revealed pretty much everything, right? Next, I’ll share my skills with Kelly.”

Kelly looked at John, wondering what he was on about.

John smiled. “My system has a skill to let me and you share skills with each other. You’ll have all of mine—that a mortal can have—while you share yours, but it will be painful so you’re going to have to be asleep when it happens.”

All of them went to Kelly’s bedroom and Kelly laid down on her bed. John then used the Share Skill with Kelly, which she accepted and then gave John her skills first.
