As the error messages kept popping up one after another, my vision was full of crimson red light. I felt like my consciousness was being slowly dragged into darkness, as I saw a white figure scream.
It was a tall man made of pure white light, with no definable features, but I noticed a pair of white wings, this was without a doubt the System, or how he used to look.
I've seen him like this before... But the wings are new.
["AAAARRGGHH!"]
"W-What?" I muttered. "And those wings..."
Suddenly, I noticed the wings were beginning to be restored slightly. The swarm of error notifications began to cease as a bright light surged from his chest. My soul's darkness consuming everything, while his light pierced it, creating an eclipsing light.
Michael... That name, and then he said Gabriel. Are they... Archangels? No, there's no way for that to be true, right?! But angelic beings are in Heaven- Wait, is Heaven even another world here? Maybe Michael and...
"I am not sure... myself either..." He sighed, looking into my eyes. His handsome face glistening below the eclipsing light. He clearly read my mind. "But I... Thanks to you, I've remembered. Thank you... I've misjudged you, Maria. You're not... a foolish girl as I imagined. You're... you truly care... for me."
"Of course I do, idiot. I've been stuck with you all this time!" I sighed, imbuing Mana into him. "Now, can you recover? The system windows kept popping but- I can do something about it..."
I opened another black hole in my chest. The error windows were instantly absorbed inside destroyed. I felt pain each time one was destroyed. And it felt strange, as if I knew I was doing something wrong, but I couldn't stop now.
I kept doing that until it gave up, the crimson messages stopped appearing, the pain receded, and Michael was looking much better, although still exhausted, on my arms.
"Where are we right now? I remember... I think I've seen this place in my dreams. A completely empty darkness, unlike my Shadow Realm, where you reside." I wondered, looking around.
"This is the... System's Core. A pocket dimension of its own, where I am sealed." Michael muttered. "I am... shocked you could enter. But I do remember I once dragged you here, through dreams."
"Dreams..." I realized that the hat I made did amplify the power of Dreams. "Wait, did that helped me get here?"
"The hat?" He wondered. "Hahah... Maybe, you always create such strange and weird things. I wouldn't doubt it must have been one of your shenanigans... You're one crazy girl."
"And you're an annoying yet handsome guy!" I slammed his forehead. "Can you stand now?"
"I think so, but I don't mind being carried some more." He smiled teasingly.
"Get down." I glared at him, as he swiftly dropped into the floor.
And then, he stood up again, his wings spreading out, shining with shiny brilliance.
"How much do you remember now?"
"A couple of things... Very few, but also very important ones."
"Tell me everything."
"Maria, you... don't know what you're getting into."
"I'm already deep into this anyways, so go on. Tell me."
