Versatile System Online

Chapter 293 Back Home (Part 2)

"Swooosshhh," Tim walked through the portal as the jiggly and strange feeling came over him. His body was twisted and turned as he felty his head spin as if moving on such high speeds that his brain couldn't handle it and a great headache struck him.

Since the distance was through another portal while the whole world laws were rebuilding themselves. Nope to mention the recent inclusion of mana into the world, the teleportation wasn't as smooth as it was to be.

"Ughhh!" Tim groaned in pain as he walked out of the portal. Right as he walked out, he was greeted with a high intensity light striking upon him while a loud sound reverberated in the surroundings,

"Who are you? Hands in the air before you try anything!" The feminine voice demanded. Hearing the voice, Tim felt his brain hurt even more while also feeling inclined to believe anything the voice demanded of.

"It's me TIm," Tim said out in fear and raised his hands again while he thought to himself, "Where did Ray send me?"

While he was thinking to himself, another soft feminine voice sounded as he heard someone coming near him, "Tim! Is it really you?" Tim's mother asked as she walked forward and came closer to him. She was still a bit wary but looking at her son's face, she lost all her wariness and ran forward and pulled him into her arms and hugged him tight as she started weeping, "I missed you so much," she wept.

"Heyy mum. Don't worry, i am back and everyone is also coming," Tim smiled. His eyes were filled with tears as he was finally united with his mother after months. At one time, Tim had even thought that it would be years before he would reunite with his mother but it was all thanks to Ray that he was able to meet her. Tim thanked Ray from the depths of his heart and then looked up at his mother's face and spoke, "Mom, Ray has sent a message,"

As he said that, Tim's mum nodded as she wiped the tears from her face. She turned around and looked at Ray's mother as she smiled and said, "Your son has sent a message, so its best that you hear it,"

"Yes, i will be the one to hear it," Ray's mother smiled back as she stepped forward and then appeared right in front of Tim, "So what did he tell you," she asked with a kind smile. Not knowing that her small act had just bewildered Tim as he thought, "The whole family is of monsters. Just what is that speed? That's at least a calamity ranked speed stat," he thought to himself.

"Heyyy kidddo, you there?" Asked Ray's mother as Tim was spaced out in his thoughts.

"Ohhh.." Tim snapped out of his thoughts and then looked at Ray's mother and answered, "Ray sent me to tell you the whole situation," Tim spoke and then added, "He asked me to inform you that he is coming home and bringing the survivors from the academy," As Tim told this information to Ray's mother, he waited to see some sort of reaction on her face. Surprisingly, she remained silent while the smile on her face never wavered as she spoke, "No worries. You just answer my questions," she spoke with the same smile and it scared Tim very much.

"Just what kind of woman is she. There are no reactions on her face," he thought to himself in fear and then decided to leave this topic and answer her questions. He didn't want to piss of his friend's mother.

"So then, what's the state of the academy?" She asked.

"Not good. The academy is destroyed. Trolls roam everywhere and they are out for blood and from what Ray has said, the portals might open up once again and even more trolls would flood the academy," said Tim.

"Hmm… okay. That's enough," Said Ray's mother calmly as she turned around and walked to the central console to control the teleportation bridge.

"TIm, I have a favor to ask you," Spoke Ray's mother, "Protect your mother and get as far away from the portal as possible,"

Tim nodded and walked to his mother. He held her tight and then hurried to a corner and activated his system. The golden bronze sheen covered his body as he pulled out the huge shield from his storage pouch and hit it hard on the ground. As he hit the shield on the ground, the ground cracked open and the shield was embedded in it. Tim injected his Ability Energy into it as the shield started glowing. After a few seconds, the shield opened up and extended as it turned into a whole barricade. Tim stood to his spot firmly and stuck to the advice of Ray's mother.

A few minutes later, the spatial bridge glowed as rows of students walked outside. Leading the students was Elina as she used her strings to float in the air and then search the whole place. Just as she started, she noticed her brother and mother standing in a corner while Ray's mother stood besides the module. She nodded at Ray's mother and then directed everyone to the corner where Tim had set up the barricade. The students listened to her as she had been leading them all this time and followed her without an issue.

After that, rows after rows followed until all the students had evacuated. Silence was regained in the whole place as everyone sighed in peace.

However, Ray's mother didn't, she was still standing besides the module and looked more serious than ever. As she was observing her posture and body language, Elina heard her speak in her mind, "Elina get ready. The real thing comes now," She said and cut the connection.

Although confused and bewildered, she didn't dare ignore Ray's mother because she knew her real strength and that it was somewhere in the middle of Calamity Realm while her system remained a mystery. She used her strings and created an additional layer of protection around the barricade that Tim had erected. It was less of something she would do but she still did it. She used the method of a mutant spider and wrapped her strings around the whole place as if creating a spider web and then closed the whole place.

After that, she floated besides Ray's mother. Looking at her, she saw Ray's mother holding a staff with a gem embedded in its middle.

"Nice staff," she commented to ease the mood.

"It's not just nice. It's enough to kill all of those idiots that you all saved," Ray's mother replied in a cold manner.

In reply, Elina nervously chuckled and looked away as she concentrated on the spatial bridge. She also had an idea of what was to come and thus was ready to face it.

"Rumbbbllleeee!!!" The whole place shook as the spatial bridge went unstable. Looking at the spatial bridge, Elina saw something huge trying o cross it but it seemed to be facing some difficulty while trying to.

"Use your strings and wind up the portal. Also, stay on alert and keep the module safe," Ray's mother said in a cold and aloof voice.

"Dinggg," she tapped her staff on the ground as a low pitched ding was produced from it. Kicking the ground, she jumped in the air and like the wind itself she floated in the air and moved forward with such elegance that it left Elina dumbfounded as she questioned herself, "Is it really Ray's mother," as she thought, her eyes went wide open as Ray's mother finally revealed her ability.

Ray's mother stood in the air and opened her arms wide as a purplish light glowed over her body. The staff floated in front of her as it kept on vibrating and whizzing,

[Dimensional Summon:- Light Elemental],

Just as she spoke, the light around her condensed above her as another portal was opened. Though, this portal was different form any other portals that Elina had seen. The portal had an archaic feeling as if some sort of gateway to another dimension. A dimension that had been closed for eons and was finally opened. Slowly, a door appeared out of the portal. The door opened up as a strange light shone out of it. The light was so bright that Elina found it hard to concentrate. The light spread to every inch of the room while the portal and the door disappeared. Elina looked up again and saw the light taking a humanoid form.

After taking the humanoid form, the elemental stood in front of Ray's mother and then bowed to her in respect.

In response, Ray's mother nodded and then said, "Fuse with me,"

As she spoke, the elemental nodded. It walked forward and then directly turned into multiple light rays that were directly fused into Ray's mother. An armor appeared over her body while her staff also changed. Elemental runes covered the whole staff as its tip had a small ball of energy dancing over it.

Ray's mother smiled and then muttered, "Just how good it feels to be finally back," as she said, she raised the staff and fired a beam of light right into the portal.

"That's freaking awesome," Elina excitedly said as she was just amazed by everything, not to mention her attacking the enemy through a huge spatial bridge.
