'Alert: Rhy has defeated the gate boss - "Basilisk of the garden" '

My back rested in the ground, everything hurt and blazed. I feel so weak. how?Am I dead? I think I was so what happened? I shifted back, pressing my back into a tree. My entire body felt like it could break from the slightest movement. Sitting next to me under the shade of the oak was Chaaya. She was smiling and staring at me with amazement. What happened in that fight? What did I turn into? It felt strange like anything I wanted was at my fingertips. I had full control of the system, so that's the ultimate skill? It should've killed me so why? Why am I sitting here?

"Rhy what was that?"

"I…. I don't know."

"you probably want to know why I got so freaked out huh?"

"Yeah, what was that?"

"Hey it's not like you can talk, you were talking about gods or something! But anyway,

Well, when I was young I lived in a small village. We weren't very big or prosperous but we were happy. I lived with my older brother and my parents, they were all so kind and we always had smiles on our faces. My parents were farmers but my brother was a genius. He learnt magic in just a few years and wanted to become the greatest mage ever. He learnt offensive magic and we were all so proud of him. He used to teach me magic so I could defend myself when he was gone. He would practise everyday and devoted himself to becoming the greatest. But one horrendous day our bubble broke. And a gate formed in the middle of town. The adventurers guild came immediately to patch up the bubble but when the sun rose the gate didn't disappear. It was an eternal gate, A gate which lasts forever and will never disappear until a year later when it opens. Despite thousands of pleas and prayers no adventurers came, no one helped us. A year passed and we were disparaging. Everyone evacuated except for us. My father said he'd never leave this town or his home. So we all stayed behind. And when the stone doors opened an army of snakes poured out of the gate slithering around and consuming the town. I thought we would all die, I thought we were done for but my brother fought them all off, he burnt every one of the snakes and saved the village until that….. Thing came out. It was a basilisk, the king of snakes. I watched from behind as my brother was eaten trying to protect me… I watched from behind helplessly as my father and mother tried to kill it, I watched as my entire family was slaughtered, their blood splashing over the ground and all I could do was cry, I was so pathetic. I wished and begged to die. I just wanted to be with them. But I was unlucky. An adventurer came to the village as the basilisk was killing my family. I still remember his expression when he saw me, I saw as an army of dragons following behind him destroying the snake. He was so happy, so glad that he found me but again I could only hold my head in my hands and sob, I must have said sorry a thousand times. He took me in, the summoner, he taught me everything I know but everytime I try to use offensive magic I can only see his smiling face. My brother beaming, and then his face stained with blood as he was eaten by that snake. I can only see my family, my village in ruin, covered in blood. In the end all that happened was I got someone else to fight for me. I'm pretty evil huh?"

"Tha… that's horrible. But you're not evil. I could only have struggled, tried so hard because of your bravery. You are the only reason I am here, you are the only reason I am still breathing. So if you're evil then I'll be your demon."

She laughed, her tears falling to the ground and her smile glowing again. Lifting the entire world for me. But there was something sad about her smile now, like it was a mask, like it was a cover.

"So Rhy. What is your power? I've known for a while that you're different. But recently your power is getting more ominous and scary are you still you?"

"Since I came to this world there's been something different. You remember the first question I asked you?"

"Um it was, can you see these windows or something right?"

"Yeah well I wasn't talking about the windows you look through. I meant game windows. In front of me is a game menu."

"Game, like tag?"

"No, something from the world I come from, but It's natural you wouldn't know. Anyway when I kill a monster I get Xp and when I get enough of that I level up. Then I can boost my stats. I can get skills and items. Even magic if I had chosen that. This system is the reason I can rank up so fast, it's the reason I resisted your control. But a few weeks ago I obtained an ability called the ultimate skill. I wasn't able to use it until just now but It let me take full control of the system, letting me use any spell I wanted having unlimited health, speed and strength. But it should've taken my life. In fact it did. I died but for some reason I came back.There was something else in the system, a bug or something else I don't know. It let me use demonic skills without having the correct qualifications. It was transforming me into something evil, monstrous but I kept using it because I had no other choice.but my hatred for humans triggers it evolving it making me more and more powerful but less and less myself"

"Wow that's um wow. There's something I've been meaning to ask you, Why Rhy? Why do you hate humans?"

"Well that's a long story"

"I don't have plans." she smiled and her face looked stubborn like she'd never give up.
