Chapter 10 - The System’s Secret

"System: I am… not a spiritual being that is for sure." The system said.

"Then tell me what exactly you are?" Sai wants the truth now. The system has a lot of secrets that he doesn't know. 

"System: You can say I am some kind of a god? Since I can access other timelines and can switch people's souls."

"Just like what you did to me and to this body. Now that you mention switching souls. Where is the original soul of this body?" Sai was curious. If Sai was in this body, then where is the original? "Do not tell me the soul of this body is in my original body?!" 

"System: Relax, it is not what you think it is." 

"Then what?" Sai was so eager to know everything.

"System: The original owner of that body is long gone."

"Long gone? What do you mean by that? Does that mean no one is controlling my original body? Am I dead in my original world?" Sai was confused.

"System: Yes, long gone. And yes, your original body is just a lifeless body right now."

Sai was shocked and confused. If his body is lifeless like the system said, then does that mean he cannot go back to his original body? "But you said I can go back to my original world! If my body is lifeless then how can I go back?!"

"System: Like I have told you once you finish your job here you can go back. Just because your body in your original world is lifeless doesn't mean you cannot go back." 

"Right… Wait, we are getting off topic. I was asking about your identity and do not change the topic." Sai realizes that they are going far from the original topic.

"System: Hehe, I thought I can get away." 

"You thought huh? Well, no you can't until you answer me properly, I won't stop bothering you." Sai was determined to know the truth.

"System: Come on do not blame me for changing the topic! You are the one who changed it first!"

"Now you are blaming me?! I did not do such a thing! You damn system" Sai was getting annoyed by the system"

"System: Yes, you did idiot! I can show you a proof! I video record everything, remember?!"

"Oh yeah? Sure, show it! It won't prove anything!" Sai crossed his arms as he glared at the system's screen.

"System: Here. 'Just like what you did to me and to this body. Now that you mention switching souls. Where is the original soul of this body?' See?! You are the one who asked me about souls!"

Sai was quiet because he was proven wrong. He was flustered that he didn't even know what to say. "Okay fine… you are right I am sorry… I guess being back in a child's body makes me childish." 

"System: It's fine. It is understandable considering you may be getting influenced by that child's body.

"Mhm… Anyway, let's move on. Now tell me your real identity Moon." Sai composed himself again trying to forget that embarrassing moment.

"System: Fine I guess there is no escape now. I'll tell you."
