Everyone Else Has a System-Chapter 249 Black Water Lake#2

"Reverse Charm: Break!" I spoke, breaking everyone from the charm that enchanted everyone here under Themis' aura.

Then she erased her aura completely and now looked like a normal person. Now… that is, if we remove those wings.

"Can you make them go away while you are with me?" I spoke, and she nodded before shrinking them to an extremely small size. They were still there but were too small to be seen.

I looked at everyone observing Themis with a really cautious look and I turned towards the Black Water Lake at a distance.

"We will be walking to that place from here onwards," I said before beginning to move in that direction.

While I could have cleared the confusion between them and explained things in more detail, I decided not to do that since I will need to repeat it, anyway.

"Lucas, while we are walking, tell Rheo and Themis about what we are going to do there, also explain your role in this whole expedition so that she can have an idea of what she will be doing there," I spoke as I kept walking and the others who were looking at Themis, slowly turned at me and then began walking behind me.

Lucas moved over to Themis without much thought and began explaining about everything that we were supposed to do in the Netherrealm.

Rheo too joined them and began asking questions about what exactly he was doing here. Though, even Lucas did not know why I called Rheo here, except that I will be helping him get stronger.

Soon we reached about 5 kilometres away and the death aura began spreading more and more, but because we had Themis, Lucas and William with us, who had their life aura shining brilliantly against the death aura, we didn't have much problem moving forward.

The distance decreased and the death energy increased even more. We were about 2 kilometres away from there and, accordingly, the death energy started taking over William and Lucas' Life Aura.

"Rheo. Reeve. Come here," I spoke as I stopped and then waited for them to arrive closer to me.

Positioning them in front of me, I put my hands on their back each before I mutter,

"Try absorbing all that death energy coming towards you."

As soon as I said that, even though both of them didn't exactly understand what they had to do, they tried to absorb the energy however they thought they should.

"Blood Assimilation: Mana Blood Manipulation," I spoke as I let my own death energy into their body along with my arms shattering a bit.

Though it wasn't nothing I couldn't bear. I just kept my face straight as I helped them absorb all that death energy coming towards them.

Obviously there was going to be a limit to how much they can absorb but with this..hmm they can at the very least move to the next step… and that's learning how to repel death energy using their Systems.

And soon enough, I saw them using their Systems to absorb more and more energy. Looks like they got a new skill related to Dark Energy absorptions. Now onto the next task… f𝓇𝘦𝒆𝘄𝑒𝗯𝑛𝗼ѵ𝙚l.𝒄𝘰𝓶

"Try to fill up as much as you can and, once done, use the same energy to repel it. It's like blowing air with air," I guided them as I calmed their mind using some of the Life Mana to make it easier for them to use it. Perhaps it came naturally for them, or perhaps me guiding them was really beneficial… I saw them repelling the energy easily as soon as I told them to.

Soon enough, the amount of death energy coming towards us decreased by a large margin.

Almost half of them were repelled by the Light Aura and Magic of William, Lucas, and Themis. While the other half was continuously being absorbed by Reeve and Rheo, whatever was left, were repelled by them as well.

We then moved forward again before reaching extremely close to the Lake.

There was a big black cloud covering the entire area and the death energy, which normally should have been barely visible, was as clear as day with its centre being around the centre of the lake. Though, despite such dense death energy, we didn't have a problem standing there.

For the first few minutes, it was difficult for Reeve and Rheo to simultaneously absorb and deflect all that energy, but with my help, and some amount of time, they adjusted to it pretty fast. In fact now, they didn't even need me to guide them how to do it as they can manage it on their own.

'I guess it was the right choice to bring Rheo along with us,' I smiled before moving closer to the lake as I took out the artefact which I got from Linda before when we stayed in Iredale. I turned to look at Linda once more, before I spoke.

"I would like to hear more about how you got that artefact. Though only speak of it when we are in that realm and not here on this planet."

She looked at me and nodded with a serious expression before turning at the huge mass of death energy in front of her. Honestly, that energy kind of sends chills down my spine as well and if even I am affected by it, then I could only imagine what she would be feeling right now.

As for Cristine, she was the same as Linda here… all this death energy was affecting her too. ƒ𝘳𝗲𝑒𝒘𝐞𝚋𝚗𝐨v𝘦l.𝒄o𝐦

I then looked at that artifact carefully. It was like a pendant piece without the chains, and there was a red-coloured gem embedded in a silver coloured webbed covering.

Behind it I saw the ancient language, spoken only in the Netherrealm. I then began murmuring as I looked at that pendant as,

"(Long Live the King of Darkness, for once shall you rise the world may crumble and we will take back the glory that we lost once upon a time)"

As soon as I said that, the pendant started shining and immediately after; I threw the pendant in the lake in front of me.

"Linda," I spoke again as I saw the dark energy beginning to swirl around the place where I threw the pendant and I continued,"Do you want to know… what Life and Death is?"
