My Free Will System: Transmigrating Into My Favorite Immersion Game

Lady Selene began walking, and Elias followed beside her, "You won't offer me your hand?" She asked

"My hand? No thanks, I like having my hand," Elias said flatly

Lady Selene paused then burst out laughing, she giggled like a teenage girl, "You're silly, I didn't mean it literally. Have you never walked with a Lady before?" She asked

"It seems the matter you wish to discuss with me is not as pressing as you suggested if you have the time to make jest of me," He deadpanned

She stifled her laughter and cleared her throat with the grace of a seasoned lady of high society that she was, "Here," she took a hold of his hand and then inserted her hand between his arm and body, "That's how it's done. When walking with a lady, you offer her your hand, walk on her left, and match her pace."

"Thank you…" Elias said, "Now to the matter you wish to discuss with me,"

"You're an impatient man, Elias Ashdown," she said

"I'm only impatient to certain people, and to others I have all the patience in the world," He said

"Is that so?" She said, "Well, the issue at hand isn't something we can say here, there may be ears in walls. Let us go somewhere else"

Elias raised a curious brow, "Here is fine," he said, "Barrier, Ward of Silence. Now no one will hear us,"

Lady Selene looked around in surprise, "How are you able to instantly raise wards and weave spells without any preparation, it's unheard of."

"Carry on, Lady Selene," Elias urged her

"Very well," she began, "Most people don't know this, but when it comes to magic and Magecraft, I am not very prominent, especially with offensive battle spells.

But there is one thing I'm undisputed at, and that is Divination magic. Magic that allows me to foresee and foretell future events.

I can peer into the future, and when I do so, sometimes I can see as far as a whole day, and other times I just get glimpses of the farther future.

It may not seem like much, but it's very useful, people come from far and wide to get a glimpse of their future, but I turn them down mostly, because most of the time, knowing your future can be detrimental to your present" she explained

"And this concerns me how?" Elias asked

"Days before your challenge, I tried to divine the outcome of the challenge, but all I could see was nothing. Not darkness, not black, white nor grey, I saw Nothing, it was as if the future didn't exist for that day.

I was shocked and worried by this, I thought it was a mental block causing me to see nothing, so I tried to divine the future of another, Lord Varric's daughter to be specific and I could only see her future after the challenge, any attempt to see her future on that specific day yielded the same result of nothing.

I tried it with several other people and I got the expected result, the result only changed when you were involved or when I directly tried to peek into your future. I tried so hard to divine you that I was almost driven insane for trying once.

Lady Selene had caught Elias' attention, he was listening attentively to her words, "What are you saying then?"

Lady Selene smiled, "I'm saying, you, Elias Ashdown have no future, you only have 'now'; the present. You are an anomaly that renders the future to nothing, a null variable and I have a strong feeling that it has nothing to do with you being the child of light. It's something else, something much, much, much more powerful." She said

Elias soaked in what he had just heard, 'I have no future, I live only in the now? That's not possible…wait, or could it be because of the system and Moera?'

Elias tried to make sense of this new information and then one of the initial messages of the Free will system popped up in his mind,

"You who was bound by Fate will now be steered away from it," He muttered

"What did you say?" Lady Selene asked

"It's nothing," Elias replied, "Thank you for letting me know, I appreciate it," He said before turning around to leave

"W-Wait, that's not all,"Lady Selene said

Elias turned around, " That's not all?" He asked

"Yes"

"Go on then," He urged her

"Not here, I've grown tired of standing. Perhaps we should continue this in your quarters?"She asked smiling

Elias raised a suspicious brow, "Sure," He said. He had a feeling she had an ulterior motive, but he still indulged her because of the promise of information she had

Bam!

Elias slammed his door shut and turned the key, "Done, just as you requested. Now start talking," He said

Lady Selene smiled, "Remember when I said I tried to divine multiple people?" She began
Find your adventure at m-vl-em,py-r

"Yes I do,"

"One of those people, was the King and when I saw into his future, I saw King Alaric pointing his sword clearly with the intent to kill you," She said

Elias raised a suspicious eyebrow, "You said he was pointing his sword at me, but earlier you said any future that involved be that you tried to see yielded nothing, so how is it possible you saw me? Are you lying to me?" He asked

A knowing smile curved into place on Lady Selene's face, "Nice catch, you're sharp, just as expected. But I am not lying to you, I was able to deduce that you were the one on the other end of the sword because after I saw him pointing his sword, and it was time to see who was on the other end, the future returned nothing to me," She explained

Elias stroked his nonexistent beard as he pondered, it was too much information to digest at once.

Lady Selene stood up from the chair she sat in and walked up to Elias, swaying her hips exaggeratedly as she did. She placed both her hands on his face and whispered into his ear:

"I've seen how strong you are, and that is even without the Goddess' blessings. I'm just letting you know right now; If you want to take away the throne from that lazy slob Alaric, I am with you…Chosen child of light; Elias Ashdown,"
