The King's Mandate: Anomalous System

Chapter 237: Chapter 202.1

{Note- This is of when Das was staying at the palace}

It's been like forever since I came here.

[This library is big]

"This is just the personal collection of my grandfather"

[You mean there are more books?]

"A lot more in the archive"

Have you read all of them?]

"Yes"

[So cool]

"It's nothing"

[But reading all the books is just awesome]

"I have lived here more than half of my life. This library was like my second room. Whenever I used to get a chance, I sneaked in"

[So you were like this from back then] 

"What do you mean by 'Like this', huh?"

[Reading books and spending time]

"Well, I had nothing to do at that time, aside from my training. Lier was around, but…I was an asshole. I never paid attention to her"

[That wasn't your fault]

"But if I had noticed her feelings, things would have turned out differently"

[Are you not afraid if things would have turned out differently?]

"I don't know"

[You may have never met Elena]

"That is a possibility"

[And even if you had met her somehow, like some miracle. You wouldn't have started dating her] 

"I am not sure about that. Elena's grandfather said it was all his plan. He made Elena and I meet with each other"

[Is that so?]

"Yes. So I would have gone to that university to get my degree, and her grandfather would have asked for the same condition"

[That you have to go in high school?]

"Yes. And even after that, it didn't go according to his plan. So he had me tutor Elena"

[So you would have met eventually]

"Yes. And she would have confessed to me"

[But you already have had Lier]

"I know. But Elena said that if by chance I already had a girlfriend, she was ready to become my backup girlfriend or mistress"

[She loves you so much]

"So, I think things would have turned out the same"

[So if you get to travel back in time, would you accept Lier before Elena?]

"Going back in time...something like that is impossible"

[There is much research going on in that field. Someone nearly built a time machine once]

"Don't believe the internet. Not everything there is true"

[But what if you get to travel back in time?]

"If I do, then I will first go find myself. And then beat the shit out of him"

[Wait why?!]

"Because I was pathetic and idiot"

[Why would you beat yourself? And wouldn't you be a kid at that time? You will beat the kid? Bad Das] 

"Hey!"

[Do you hate yourself?]

"I do. I hate myself. I hated myself until I met Elena. I hate all my memories. I just want to forget--"

[Say no more words]

"What?"

[Your system deleted your painful memories every time you say that. Maybe that's the reason you don't remember many things about your childhood]

"That's not true. I got this system after I played LWO"

[That may not be a possibility]

"What do you mean?"

[Maybe you had a system a long before that?]

"There is no way that's possible"

[How can you be so sure?]

"My injuries never healed"

[Hmm]

"I am sure I got the system after playing LWO. And it is somehow related to it"

[We need to find the reason why you have a system]

"Yeah"

[So going back to where we left. What will you do if you somehow get a chance to go back in time?]

"As I said, I will find my kid-self and--"

[Aside from that?]

"I will go and see the small Elena"

[Creepy]

"Hey!"

[But it was creepy]

"Can't I go and meet my girlfriend?"

[She wasn't your girlfriend at that time]

"So what? She is my girlfriend now"

[Still creepy]

"Talking about small Elena reminds me of...just who the hell was that boy?!"

[What are you talking about?]

"Selena told me that Elena kissed a boy when they were kids"

[Oh!]

"What do you think? She was telling the truth?"

[I don't know. I have only met her once when she logged in as Elena in the game]

"I don't know if I should believe her or not"

[But why would she lie?]

"I don't know. She even wanted Elena and I to have a divorce"

[Maybe she is jealous?]

"Jealous of?"

[I mean...you know, maybe she is in love with you?"

'We have similar tastes'

Dammit!

Why did I remember that?

"I don't know"

[What would you do if she really is in love with you?]

"I don't know. She is Elena's twin. And there are too many mixed feelings"

But I hate her for sure.

[I hope Elena will be okay with this]

"Hey...you know. I once had this dream where I was at the beach of LWO. And Elena and I talked about this matter. And the dream ended when Elena said, 'It's a dream' and I woke up"

[Your system must have shown it to you]

"Why?"

[You must be worried about that. So your system showed you the possibilities]

"What do you mean by...I wasn't worried about that!" 

[Your heart rate is getting faster]

Dammit!

"Enough talking. Let's do what we came here for"

[Why did we come here for?]

"To search for more information about the Oyuoral"

[Didn't you already decide to make a mask from it?]

"I did. But I want to know what it was used for. Why did my ancestors protect it with their lives? Why it was the Edens' heirloom?"

I almost read all the books again, but didn't find anything about the Oyuoral.

"This is impossible"

[There is no information about it whatsoever]

"This doesn't make any sense"

"Found you"

I glanced at the door to see Daulla standing there, folding her hands.

"Hey, good morning" I said, nervously.

"It's not morning"

"What are you doing here?"

"What does it look like?"

"Morning patrol?"

"I just said it's not morning. I was looking for you. You weren't in your room, so without wasting a single second, I hurried over here. And my guess was right" 

"I was just refreshing up some old memories"

"If you are done, then let's go eat"

"Let's go"

I couldn't find any information on Oyuoral at all.

Just what purpose did it serve? And why was it called "The Cursed Ball'?
