My Slayer System: Rise to Supremacy

After getting the request from Gray, Jay didn't waste time in getting to work as he hopped onto the capsule known as Reality X and began playing it for a while to see how the system worked.

He did this for a week as after every gaming session, he always recorded down what he noticed from the game, how the system screen works, the level up process and so many other things.

When he felt like he had gathered enough information, he got to work as he began making the system. Anytime he was working, Gray always dropped by asking about the progress therefore ruining his concentration.

So he had to put a small laser on his door handle. Anytime Gray was about to open the door, it electrocuted him and so he always went away letting Jay work in peace.

Throughout his time working on the system, he hadn't seen the outside as the pure excitement to create something extraordinary always kept him locked in for two whole weeks.

And during these two weeks, he had so many failed experiments that he was starting to lose hope and today was just like another day as he was seen tossing a chip aside and it landed in a small mound of several chips.

"Day 15 of another failure." He spoke into a small tape recorder. "Reason for day 15 failure, chip was unable to handle the amount of information being processed into it." Immediately after he was done, he dropped the tape recorder and swiveled on his chair in deep thought as he picked a cup of coffee and began sipping on it.

"What is going on? 15 freaking days and I'm not even getting closer to success! Darn it!" He shouted as he almost chucked the coffee cup away but he held back and continued to take a sip.

"Should I just give up? I mean the project is not heading anywhere, no actual results except a small mound of failed chips." He said glancing at the chips when he heard a soft knock on his door.

"Jay! You busy?" Gray called out from outside.

"Please go away. I don't feel like talking." Jay replied.

"C'mon man. For the past two weeks, you haven't come out of there. I'm sure your room is starting to stink now." Gray said and Jay turned around looking at the room and at a small mirror off to the side with his reflection in it.

In his reflection, he could see a heavy dark bag under his eyes as he hadn't slept a wink for two weeks. Only occasionally resting his head and eyes and then waking back up in thirty minutes to begin working.

"I think I need a breath of fresh air." Jay mumbled.

"Are you coming? Or should I break the door open and drag you out." Gray asked as he hit the door a little harder.

"Chill, I'm coming." Jay said standing up when he felt his feet being wobbly as he almost fell down but he held his desk and stood up straight as he took a gentle step one at a time towards the door.

Opening it up, he could see Gray dressed causally but he still had a small robe on his body that was fluttering in the wind.

"Why do you like this robe of a thing?" Jay asked.

"I don't know. It feels just nice." Gray replied with a small smile.

"So where are we headed?" Jay asked.

"Just going to take a small stroll so let's go." Gray said and Jay shut the door behind him as they left the guild base and were walking out on the streets looking at the people walking in harmony.

Some of the guild members were seen with the phoenix symbol on different parts of their bodies with different weapons in hand.

"Have you even went on a hunt in these past two weeks of anticipating the system?" Jay asked.

"Not really. I didn't feel like. It would have been a problem if I hadn't created this group known as the core members and man, they are awesome." Gray said.

"Yeah, I bet. I'm still confused about something though." Jay said.

"What is it?" Gray asked.

"Why did you take me in? Weren't you afraid of what a big three would do to you? I mean, you took in an escapee who was apart of them." Jay said.

"Do you think I'm afraid of those old geezers? They are nothing to be afraid of and for your question about me taking you in, I don't know. Something just attracted me to you and your personality was quite likeable.

Besides, I never did really get a best friend so I think I pictured you in that light." Gray smiled.

Seeing the smile on Gray's face, Jay's face also lit up with tears streaming down his face.

"Thank you. I have also been busy with work back at the Josh's and I never did really make friends. So thank you for letting me experience this new relationship." Jay said and Gray walked over and hugged him before disengaging and giving a small pat on Jay's head.

"Dry up those tears dude. You are behaving like a kid." Gray chuckled and so did Jay who wiped his tears. "Besides, if it weren't for you, I wouldn't have been able to achieve this height of success.

I'm just a little under the new faction formed under the big three known as the big independent guilds. In just a year of you joining us, our strengths have been boosted a lot.

Without you, there's no phoenix guild. You are the link that makes us do well as your technology is very helpful."

"Awwn!" Jay smiled and completely wiped his tears as they were about to continue their stroll when he halted his steps as his eyes widened which made Gray turn around since he didn't hear any footsteps.

"What's wrong? Is it something I said?" Gray asked.

"Link!" Jay shouted.

"Link? What do you mean?" Gray asked.

"I finally found my answers." Jay said and he ran towards Gray giving him a big hug with a wide smile on his face. "Thank you. The small stroll has given me an idea. I can't believe I never thought about this. I need a link!" He said and then ran away from the streets heading back to his workshop.

"What's wrong with him?" Gray asked himself. "He has gone nuts."
