Everyone Else Has a System

Chapter 183 Arcadia Academy#10 Deal

"It's about… Well, Lucas and the other teachers said that you could be helpful and after hearing about your ability… I wonder if you were interested in striking a deal?"

'A deal? Now, isn't that interesting?' I smiled as I looked at Dalton before grabbing a bite of my food. As I was eating, I said,"let's hear it then," before focusing on my food again.

"There was a dead monster we caught about 7 months ago. Its skin was white and harder than anything we have seen before and no matter what we did, it did not break. We have been trying everything we can, but we are really at a loss."

I looked at him as I gulped down another bite and spoke,"so let me guess. You want me to figure out a way to break that shell or maybe find its weakness? So what do I get in return?"

Dalton nodded in return before speaking,"we can provide you 4 Star Access in the Arcadia Library along with 100,000 Arcadia Coins to spend on anything you want. How does that sound?"

Hearing that offer, a stupefied expression came on Rita and Weber's faces, as they couldn't believe what they were hearing, but I smiled before speaking,"I am not that cheap. I am sorry."

The Library of Arcadia has 100 floors and with a 4 star access, you can enter up to the 49th floor. Without any card, you can make it upto 9th floor and the more stars you have, the higher you can go with each star getting you access to another 10 floors.

The last, the tenth star, allows you to enter into the 100th floor, where only the most prestigious and most meritorious ones can enter.

As for the coins, one needs about 100 Arcadia Coins for its daily expenses, with no additional entertainment or requirement. So, with 100,000 Arcadia Coins, you can easily live lavishly within Arcadia for a year or two. Or maybe you can just spend it all to gain some training from the teachers and get to learn about their legacy or something to get a head start over the others… none of my business, honestly.

'If I start doing business, I can earn that much in less than a month, and about that 4-Star Access, I can easily get an 8-Star Access to the library with Amelia's help,' I thought as I continued chomping on my food before Dalton asks,

"What is it that you want, then?"

I smile with a slight grin before I put my spoon and fork down, finishing my meal and then, after cleaning my hands with a tissue, I slowly point my finger at him.

For a few moments he was confused, but when it became apparent what I was trying here, he looked at me with a narrowed gaze as he asked,"May I know what you want from me?"

I chuckled a little before speaking,"I need your help with something, but I guess we can discuss it later when we reach the point where the monster is. I need to see how much the monster's worth is, before actually bargaining, don't you think?"

He looked at me before pondering a little before nodding and speaking,"sure, I guess. Honestly, it has really piqued my interest in what you need me for, but still, we can wait till then." After that Lucas began explaining about what is going on around the Academy, its rules and other stuff, but since I wasn't interested in it, I just stood up before speaking,

"I will be back before evening tomorrow."

They looked at me standing up and walking away from there, but nobody stopped me. Lucy looked like she wanted to come with me, but Lucas stopped her and soon I vanished from there.

As soon as I moved out, I vanished from there to a higher ground on one of the buildings, and saw Dalton almost coming out hurriedly as he looked around with a slight shock on his face.

Lucas also comes out and they both start talking about something before Lucas asks Dalton to go in which he unwillingly does.

"What is it that you want from Lucy, exactly?" I hear Lucas' voice from behind me and a smile forms on my face as I turn towards him and find him already there before I could even notice.

"To save her from dying," I answered honestly, without hiding anything. The smile on my face was still there, and I just looked at his narrowed and half furious gaze before he asked,"who is going to kill her?"

"That being is much stronger than you and I can imagine. If you want to talk about saving her, get more strong, much much more stronger than you are planning to be. Maybe someday when you are strong enough to take me on, making me use at least 20 percent of my power, I will show a glimpse of what we are about to face in the future."

I spoke before reaching behind him and

-BOOOM!!!

Kicking him back down as he hits the ground, making everyone look at the place where he crashed and I vanished from there.

"And don't get too comfortable with me, will you?"

I muttered using a small magic that made only him hear my voice. After that, I vanished from there before anyone would notice me. Honestly, after all that travelling, using my powers for the right reasons, felt beautifully amazing.

My next destination was the Core Area of the Arcadia Academy, where she would be. It has been a while since I had seen her and I was really excited to meet her. One of my masters, who taught me about all the weapon skills, was here in this place.

It was a sad ending last time that she died in the war among the races during the first Cataclysm, but this time I am going to protect her to the best of my ability.

Adara Harriet… This time I will be protecting you to the best of my ability.
