Chapter 79 What Do You Mean, Meet Helix?

"Successor,"

"Successor…"

"Come now, how long do you plan to be asleep?"

Baam!

Sato immediately opened his eyes and found himself lying on the white and soft cloudy ground.

"Did I die?" Sato raised a question.

"That is correct, you most definitely did."

"I see."

"See what?"

Sato's eyebrow twitched in annoyance as he closed his eyes, "Must you stay so close to me?" He asked.

"Heh, whatever do you mean?" The lady dressed in a white alluring dress and having black long hair that fell flat on her back responded.

She had red pearly eyes, a flower crown on her head, and two giant knockers paying homage to her chest. She was sitting right on top of Sato with her face positioned so close that her nose was nearly touching Sato's.

"Get off me, Hikari." Sato voiced out.

With a giggle, Hikari stood up and began walking away, heading toward the single throne that was sitting alone in the middle of the vast empty space.

Sato sat upright and looked around, to see the empty space he was sitting in, where the ground was covered in clouds and nothing else could be seen from miles away.

The only thing Sato's eyes touched was the mysterious woman and the gray throne that she was seated on.

With her legs crossed and elbow rested on the armrest of the throne while her jaw rested on her fist, Hikari voiced out.

"So? Have you grasped the situation already?" She asked.

Sato looked at her, before standing to his feet with a sigh following right after.

"Give me one reason why I should trust you?" Sato asked.

"Well, why wouldn't you?"

"Don't play dumb, this isn't the first time we've met, this is the third time to be exact, and every time, I always seem to forget our encounter, it is your doing, is it not?" Sato questioned with a serious expression on his face.

She first appeared to Sato back when he was in his former world and caused the explosion in his apartment which led to him getting reincarnated.

Although she didn't attend to him during that time, she made her presence known again after she dragged Sato into her world when he was being held prisoner by the Valkyries.

And the third time would be now, and during those two encounters, Sato had always forgotten about her after the meeting ended.

Although he still gets the sense of having a conversation with someone, he still wasn't sure why he knew such conversations or knowledge, and it ended up leaving him frustrated.

A smirk showed up on Hikari's lips before she responded, "To be fair, my identity is to be kept a secret, I can't have you yapping about me to people".

Sato trembled as he pointed at Hikari, "You are one evil woman, you know that? You told me it was to protect whoever I told from being trapped in here with you." He voiced out.

"I did?" Hikari said with her finger on her cheeks as she looked to the side, "Doesn't sound like something, I'd do…".

"Oh cut the crap! Just tell me why I'm here already!" Sato shouted with his finger still pointed.

With a thug of breeze, Hikari appeared right in front of Sato and held his hand, "You died, I thought it was going to be obvious".

"Let me rephrase that question, how did I die?" Sato inquired of Hikari.

"You were killed by the eye of destruction, head scattered on the floor, I'd say, you should be lucky I pulled your soul away when I did, you could have been heading straight to the overseer by now." Hikari revealed, walking around as she spoke.

"Good then, so you can get my soul out of my body if I die again, right?"

"It's not that easy, yes I did get your soul out before it wandered elsewhere, but it is not guaranteed I will be able to do it again without trapping your soul here with me." Hikari replied.

Sato looked to the side and sighed, "So if I die again, that's it… and here I thought I was overpowered".

He sat back down on the ground, his hands digging through his hair as he began to rack his brain to come up with ideas.

Hikari watched him for a while before she walked over to his front and bent down.

"I gave you all the information you needed, why didn't you get the eye even after I told you of its power." Hikari asked.

Sato immediately yelled back his response, "Oh shut up! You were the one that made me forget you, or did you forget? You idiot!" He yelled before calming down, "All I was left with was a lingering feeling that I had to do it… I had no sure way to tell if I was making the right call, because of me, all the people who trusted me might just die as well".

"Ouch, my poor heart." Hikari muttered, "Alright fine, I'll help you." She said before standing to her feet.

Sato looked at her with a bit of concern on his face, "Help with what exactly?" He asked.

"Getting rid of the eye of course, what else." Hikari laughed as she sat back down on her throne.

He was quiet for a while, but later asked the question, "Hikari? I haven't heard Helix's voice in a while." He uttered, "I was wondering if you knew what might have happ…"

"Oh my, are you having a romantic affair with your System?" Hikari poked fun at.

"Come on!" Sato stood up from the ground and stomped over to Hikari, "I'm serious here! For some reason, I can't use my full abilities when I'm in front of Vlad and to make it worse, I can't hear Helix's voice, I'm at a serious loss here!".

Hikari tried to keep a straight face and not laugh but it was painfully obvious to Sato.

Even though he was feeling angered, Sato looked to the ground with a saddened expression on his face as he voiced…..

"Please Hikari, I beg of you, help me, I can't do this on my own".

"How can I refuse when you make such a face, okay sure, I'll take you to see where she is." Hikari replied with a smile on her face.

Slowly raising his head, Sato looked to Hikari and asked, "Where who is?".

"Helix, you wanted to meet her, didn't you? Well, here's your chance." Hikari responded.
