Everyone Else Has a System

Chapter 11 Escaping The Facility#3

While charm magic in itself is a rarity, it doesn't mean that it can be used only by a few specific people. It just means that only a few people strong enough to unlock it with their will power can use it.

Anyone can use charm magic if they have enough expertise in controlling one's behaviour. Depending upon the situation and expertise, one can make people forget small things at a minimum and control their whole life at max.

It doesn't apply just to charm magic, but to all other magic as well. While it is true that anyone can unlock all forms of magic but unlocking it and using it is a totally different thing. The existence of the system is actually a boon to people because it allows them to bypass the whole process of unlocking and practising the skill or magic. The only downfall is that a system can unlock only a specific path for you and nothing more than that.

...….

"I will unlock your mana channels and system. Can you help with the healing? As you can see, I am not really in a good condition right now."

At Zero's words, her eyes looked at Zero with an expression that was turning more jovial at the moment. Placing the mana potion in her hand, Zero then proceeds to touch her forehead and then his eyes look deeply into hers.

"Charm Reflection," he mutters slowly as he proceeds to free her from the other charm magic.

While it may look like her mana channels were blocked and she was not able to see her mana and system but it was not true at all. The thing that was blocking her from using her system and mana was her own subconscious. As for why her subconscious did not allow her to use these, the result was…

'A B ranked Charm magic, huh? Michael has the same charm magic applied to him. Same with the others,' Zero thinks as he sets her free from the charm magic and signals her to drink the mana potion.

Shocked with the situation, the others couldn't help but gulp at the phenomenon that was taking place in front of their eyes. Some even had tears in their eyes as they looked at Zero as if he was their saviour.

The healer then started crying as she gulped down the mana potion. There was an extremely grateful expression present on her face. After drinking down the whole potion, she couldn't help but stare at Zero as if he was her Prophet.

She couldn't help but look at her System again and again

[Name: Sera Rose

Level: 87

Class: Saintess of Water Magic

Mana: 230/15340

Stamina: 150/190]

Smiling, she looked at her saviour before muttering with a delighted voice,

"[Calling of Nature: Blessing of the Water Serpent]"

A bright light shone, and a water serpent surrounded Zero all around him. Slowly and slowly, Zero began healing. His eyesight, which was almost gone, began healing and in a few minutes they returned to normal. It was his hands next to be healed before the effect of the spell finished.

Zero looked at the condition of his body before sighing as he thought,' looks like there is only so much that can be done with a small mana potion. Well, at least I can keep up the plan with this much… sigh… me and my bad luck, well whatever.'

Even though he was looking perfectly normal from the outside, his inner damage that was done before he came into the facility was still not fully healed.

He then proceeded to move to the next person and then began removing the charm magic. It took some time, but he freed all of them one by one from the charm magic before putting them under his own charm as he freed them. He couldn't fully control them but at least he could keep their opinion favourable to himself and before the charm magic wears out later, the idea of saviour will be etched inside each of their minds, making them feel forever indebted to him.

Once he had done that, he then proceeded to move towards the gate and sighed before speaking,"I think it would be better if we replenish our mana before moving to the battle outside. Is that fine with the rest of you?"

Zero looked at the others and they had a determined yet angered look on their faces. Synonymously, they nodded as they looked at Zero. Zero, on the other hand, was thinking about ways to rope some… or perhaps all the people inside this room.

He may not get time to 'bond' with them later on, as he will be busy from this point onwards.

'Just making them feel indebted would not be enough. Hmmm… but if I approach them suddenly without any reasoning just for the sake of talking, it might make them suspicious… what shall we do?"

Before Zero could reach the point of making a decision, a few of the people came forward towards him.

'Hmmm? Who are they again?

Inspector General Of Security, Claus Roan.

System: Defender of Peace and Light System

A-Rank Adventurer, Klea Mert

System: My Parkour System

And the Saintess from before, Miss Sera Rose'

Zero looked at them with a slightly confused gaze. He knew that they were thankful for saving them or at least finding a way to give them their system back, but this was not the time to chitchat. They should prioritise getting back their mana and stamina so that they can fight in their best condition.

"We want to thank you for getting our system back. You have no idea-" Klea began speaking, but before he could continue, Zero stopped him as he looked at Klea with an annoyed expression and said,"If you have anything important, get directly to the point. Else go back and replenish your mana. We don't have all day, even if we stay here and do nothing, it does not mean they would be waiting doing nothing. They too might be trying their best to break free from the otherside."

Stumped by his response, Klea couldn't help but feel a bit embarrassed. While Inspector Claus couldn't help but look at him in a new light. He smiled a bit before speaking,"I will return the favour someday. That is all I have to say. Now, excuse me." He then left from that place.

Klea and Adelea simply nodded and left from there. It looked like they wanted to speak something, but after looking at Zero's annoyed expression, they couldn't help but keep their mouth shut.

'Now then, how to approach them in the most logical way, without making them feel that I am desperate to talk to them,' thought Zero as he saw them leaving.
