The World Of Game Systems
Chapter 31 - No, I'm Really Curse-Being Right Now

Ali Syafiqi's

"Save me, and my world!"

Straight but firm, the words of the request were said directly to me. Alongside the body without a definite focus, Mashiro begged to humble herself right before my feet.

Regardless of where it was, I had no hope against the head of the justice sect before. Fate has answered correctly all my struggles, I don't know what she wants now.

"Ma - Mashiro?"

While lowering my fragile body to parallel to its current position, I could see the entire look of that regretful face. Although not a psychologist or a mentor, I know for sure how serious he is when he says a word that can be considered "trivial.

I held both shoulders limp, actually this feeling of wanting to express my request first, But when I saw him stunned, I undo it.

"Yes, I want to help you. But I actually lost against Zylx, the head of the justice sect." Reveal a fact from my previous memory.

"No!"

Reject Mashiro shook her head, the black hair that adorned her face instantly turned around. It was as if the grass was swaying to cover the loose soil on the footing.

"I know, it's my fault. I was so careless that I dueled without your knowledge."

"No!"

There was no change in his behavior, but it was getting worse. The sound of his crying was truly giving off an atmosphere dissolved in regret.

"I'm sorry, I'm reneging on a promise we made."

No one wants to show pride in every mistake. Begiitu also with me, also inundated in his regret for not being able to fulfill the promise.

"No! Nah! No!"

Mashiro's cries gradually hardened until every corner of this empty apartment room could hear her, accompanied by cries after the word rejection.

"Aoi, you're not wrong at all. Your actions are a hero to me, not that all your hard work is in vain. Wherever I may accept your apology, I should have the right to say that."

Mashiro explained, her sobs were held full by every word uttered.

"..."

I was silent, unable to say more. What he meant I don't understand. To break a promise is a hero? If true, the world must reject its existence.

"Yes, I'm really sorry from the bottom of my heart. I'm the one who made you like this, then reneged on what I said before."

"But-"

"No Aoi, the reason I didn't show up as proof of our contract was because of Zylx's arrest of me. Since then the sect of justice began to carry out its actions."

Mashiro explained briefly because there had been no appearance for the past 1 month, just when I was in the training camp.

"Caught?"

"Yes...."

After that Mashiro explained all the details, where when she was caught until she was able to reconnect *Skill contract* with me.

"So you're saying "me" is still alive?"

I asked automatically when Mashiro finished the fairy tale.

"Right, both of our bodies are now in brackets in magic confinement specially made by Zylx."

He said, the leaning sitting position illustrates how serious his words are.

"Magic cage? Is it the same as Taka and the others?"

I was tucked into a memory where my other friends were framed and locked up.

"Wait, your friend too?"

"Yes, because of that time..."

Now it's my turn to tell the story that led to our meeting, every second that Zylx's subordinates trap Party Star participants. And only one man I fought him until a one-on-one duel with Zylx.

"Tsukasa - dono murdered?!' Sahut Mashiro, her rounded eyes aligned at the sight of surprise to me.

"Yes, I saw it with my own eyes. In front of the spectators, as well as his guards who had instantly turned into soldiers of the justice sect. Oh yeah they put up barriers too." Obviously I came back, maybe I forgot to tell him that part.

"The barrier is also yes, although Taka and the others can be free from that magic confinement. But it was impossible for them to cross the barrier except for the members of the justice sect themselves."

"Why?"

Mashiro slowly sighed big, it seemed like the explanation would be long.

"Different as the confinement that Zylx created in the place of the two of us, the special confinement for them was inversely proportional. The one inside was unable to use magic, even Ergon's indicator was gone."

"Then how do I escape or destroy that magic cage?" I asked, maybe the answer to this question can make the next plan.

"There are two ways, asking the confinement summoner to release it. But that way 100% won't work."

"Then?"

He took a heavy look at me, saying, "The cage can be devoured by other stronger confinements."

The Hoshizora Taka

"That's the only way to get out of here."

I finished the explanation of how to escape, before this question was thrown by Yogairu because I was upset.

"Calculated, where maybe a big race participant like this is in a silly waiting room like this."

Although I have answered his anger, there is not the slightest decrease. Even he's still sorry and blames us for being stuck here.

Mafal who was in the cage next door also heard my explanation, was busy holding his chin, either thinking hard about digesting my previous explanation or he was planning something.

"So, you said you could be defeated by another, stronger cage? what kind of nonsense is that, even here we can't use Ergon." Sangkal Mafal shook his eyes at me.

"That's Taka - niisan."

Azzi's voice agreed to the fact that the man as my enemy said in the competition after this. But now is not the time to consider him an enemy if fate is the same as twins.

I paused to continue my further explanation, if only one of them knew how effective it was to use a Skill without Ergon, this would be more easily accepted by my words. But unfortunately, most practice makes their brains very blunt.

"Even if Ergon isn't around, aren't we still able to use the innate Skill Skill? Like a Default Skill or not passive?"

I said briefly, they should have understood with a little bit of that word.

The person in front of me, Yogairu. It's a real idiot, then say "Huh?! Now you reasoned to be able to use a Skill without Ergon in the slightest?! That's right!"

His shout strongly reflects the contents of an empty brain, the saying "A blank song sounds loud." Perhaps one of the creators of the phrase was inspired by it.

Do I really need to explain it in detail? It's very troublesome.

"Maybe Ta-kyun's words were true, even though there was no Ergon bar but there was still a Skill." Chirps Asteria, it's a good thing that girl is always my sister who receives my words a little.

"Right but we don't know how it impacts the body." Mafal started following Asteria, thank goodness.

'Alright... '

"Hap - Hap."

I threw out a pair of Hien punches, although slow but it was enough as a real proof of the use of the Skill without Ergon.

"See-saw."

Degs...

'A - argh!'

Right after I set an example for them, a huge spike floated right in my heart. As if the organ was receiving a huge surge of blood supply, there was no wound but it was very sick.

In the next instant, I heard a rhythmic clap of hands, faintly then gradually strengthening.

*Prok - Prok - Prok

"I don't think you have that legendary technique."

A girl's voice, accompanied by the clap. Unlike the gentle intonation of Asteria and Azzi, the effect seemed to underestimate me.

I forced myself to know the source of that voice, sure enough that he was a subordinate figure of the justice sect.

'Voice..girl?'

"It seems you understand the concept of this confinement."

Seriate...
