The Secret.
"I have got only one thing to say, Ryan, you are crazy mad," Gwen told me. We were in the infirmary. Pete was on the bed. Doc was not there in the infirmary. We were waiting for her to come and heal everybody but she was absent.
"Right, that's right, Ryan, you are fucking insane, idiot"
"I think you are a crazy psycho. So this is what your power is, I see"
"Guys stop insulting me,"
"I mean, who would beat someone that badly? You almost killed him, if we had not stopped you, you might have even killed him, that's really crazy"
"Did you saw what he did to Pete, Gwen? Huh, look at Devon. His nose is broken, how can I stay calm in such a position? Yeah we don't know each other at all, we all sitting here are strangers but now we are a team, we gotta have each other's back,"
"You were going to fucking kill him. What will you do if you are sent to jail? What if you are fucking expelled?" Naomi was right.
"That's not the point right now, we need to find Doc and I need blood," I turned around to move towards the blood bank.
"Ryan. If you do think of your team so much then I don't think there is any reason for you to keep your secret, tell them about it too,"
I paused. I was not sure if I should tell them about it.
"Secret? What secret? The secret behind your insane power?" Devon asked.
"Hm. That's true. The secret behind my immense power," I turned my back.
We all heard loud footsteps of someone approaching the infirmary. We all moved our eyes to the infirmary's door.
"Ryan!" Doc came into view. She was panting hard. Gwen was startled. Doc raised her head, both of her hands were on the door's jamb.
"Doc?" She ran inside the infirmary. Now I was startled, I took a step back but Doc didn't stop. Before I knew it, her hands were around me, her neck was beside my cheek. Her hair was all over my face.
"Woah,"
"What in the?"
"What kind of relationship does those two fucking have?"
"Ryan! Ryan! Ryan!" She kept squeezing my body tighter and tiger, "Ahh, I know what you did! Ryan~"
"D- doc, time, time please,"
"Oh sorry," she loosed her arms around my neck, she pulled my away holding me by my shoulder.
< HP: 2/15 >
< Blood level: 1/15 >
'Don't tell me, her hug reduced my HP?'
I looked into her eyes. They were sparkling.
"Dude! You are so cool, Ryan! I am again sorry for losing my composure as a teacher, but I just can't help it! I am so happy that you did what I told you to,"
"T- thank you. But what?"
"I did tell you to beat the opponent badly than getting beaten up badly and you did it perfectly, oh god I am so happy and proud as a teacher!" she hugged me again.
"T- thank you, doc" I hugged her back. I mean how can I miss such a chance to get all clingy with a hot woman?
"Is she really a fucking teacher?"
"Hm. She is,"
"God. I can't believe she's a teacher,"
"Dr. Mary, we need to heal uh Pete, he's still unconscious," seriously Gwen? Seriously? Let me enjoy this.
"Oh yeah, right, Ryan you lost your cool by my hug this time didn't you?" She pulled me away again. I let my hands loose.
"This time? How many more fucking times were there when you two did this?"
"Eh… are you jealous?" Doc smirked.
"I am not fucking jealous," she shouted.
"Hehe, where's Pete?" She went ahead healing Pete. I looked away. Devon was staring at me. I bobbed my head. Then gave him a shrug.
"Ryan. Is Dr. Mary your-"
"No, she's not my sister, she's not my lover either. I would appreciate it if none of you raise bring this topic again, thank you very much,"
"Oh, sure" I sighed.
"Doc. I need blood,"
"It's in the cupboard shelf up there,"
"Thanks," I walked towards the shelf Doc pointed at, "About my power Devon, Naomi. It is this Ring," I lifted my Ring.
"What do you mean?"
"This is an RPG System Ring. It's a Ring System. I have to offer it my blood to use its power, it can heal my wounds, my fatigue but asks for blood in return. I level up by completing its Quest-"
"Fuck. fuck, wait a fucking second,"
"Yeah, Naomi?"
"You mean this is a System? The one shown in Anime, Manga, Web Novels, and Light Novels?"
"Exactly,"
"That seems so fictitious,"
"I told you guys my secret it's up to you if you want to believe me or not, but I guess trust is the basic need for teamwork,"
< One ml of blood = one HP point or one Blood level point >
'Thanks for the information, System. Which means I need 27 ml of blood.'
"Doc, I can't seem to understand how much ml of blood does each tube contains so please help me,"
"Wait a minute then,"
"Are you telling the truth, Ryan?" Devon asked.
"Yeah, he is, you are welcome,"
"Yeah, I am. Thanks, Gwen,"
"See Ryan, look here," Doc got up and came near me, she pointed her finger at the tubes, "We have a total of nine different tubes with different cap colors, right?"
"Yeah," she was standing behind me, she leaned forward.
"The colors are, White, Grey, Black, Yellow, Orange, Blue, Red, Green, Purple,"
"There sure is," okay now she's getting closer to me. What's with Doc?
"Now you see, Ryan, they are arranged in an order. If the order is changed there's a way to remember how much ml of blood does a tube has in it by looking at its cap..." She took a pause, "Did you understood?"
"Eeek"
"Ryan! What happened?" Devon got up. Everybody panicked.
"C- calm down," I was panting for air, "It- it is nothing, Doc just whispered something in my ear I lost my control. My ears are sensitive so,"
"Uh… fuck,"
"Doc. Please?"
"Hahaha! Sure, sure," I sighed.
"So, Ryan the order is like this, colorwise okay, they are in increasing value so listen, First, White, Grey, Black, Yellow, Orange, Blue, Red, Green, Purple. That's the order. White has the lowest amount of blood" She leaned over my back again. Her soft boobs were pressing against my back again.
