Everyone Else Has a System

[Adara's POV] 𝐟𝘳𝑒𝗲𝘸e𝒃𝘯𝒐𝐯e𝚕.c𝒐𝒎

"Sigh… how did he even find you two?" I spoke as I looked at those two monsters with such high hidden potential. It's as if they were born to be swordmana enhancers… the class that were the rarest of the rarest to find.

I looked at Bernette Leeway, who was supposed to be sick, all healthy and strong as hell in front of me and then there was this girl… Cook Flynn… just what is she? How can someone be misguided so much… but even still…

"I just met him today… but if he can fulfil the promise he said he will, I won't mind dying for him," spoke Cook Flynn as she looked at me with determination in her eyes and I sighed as I spoke,"I guess this is why… you are too easy to manipulate. Huh?"

The 'him' we were talking about was Zero, the guy who stole my first kiss and, for some reason, not getting angry… I felt it would be fine if it was him. Just what is this sudden trust that I have for him, even though I know literally nothing about him?

"What do you mean by that, Miss Adara?" asked Cook, and Bernette, too, made a curious expression as she looked at me.

"With the way you are behaving, it's too obvious that you have been used by a lot of people before and probably have a lack of true or real friends?" I asked, and she nodded with a wide-eyed expression as she asked,"wow! Am I that obvious?"

I sighed before speaking,"it's not just that, but your mana and the way it binds around the edges of your weapon. Under normal conditions, you should have been a beast that is known around the world, but still nobody knows about it? Did someone steal your power for a very long time?"

Hearing my words, Cook observed me with a wide-eyed expression as her eyes turned a little teary before a bitter look fell all over her expression as she spoke,"I have forgiven him…" Her words made me sigh again as I spoke,"so you are naive as well, huh? Looks like this is going to be harder than it looks."

"Bernette, is there anything you want to ask? If not, we can just go directly into the training before I tell you guys about how the Student Council works," I spoke as I looked at her and then Cook.

Bernette ponders a little before asking,"what is your relation with Zero? If it is a secret, we won't interfere, but... Still, I want to know."

"Hmmm… my relationship with him, huh? I don't know. At this point, I have no idea how to define what is between us or what is not. I trust him for the work he has done and for the work he is trying to do… apart from that, I don't know anything about him," I said as I looked at Bernette.

It was my honest opinion about Zero. That guy is special, and probably he loves me… but he is too complicated. His actions, his reasons, his ways of doing things, almost everything is shrouded in mystery about him.

'If I were to fall in love with him… I don't think it's possible unless I become capable of understanding him,' I thought before looking at Bernette, who was pondering about something as she spoke,

"Then can I have him?"

Her eyes were looking deep into mine and I, even though a bit shaken by her question, spoke out as,"Sure, I guess."

'Though that is going to be hard, I suppose,' I thought as I pondered about Zero again before taking Bernette and Cook to the training ground behind the student council building.

"Okay, first I would like both of you to fight without using any mana," I spoke, and they both nodded and moved onto the field.

Bernette positioned herself properly as she took out her sword and then faced Cook, who also took out her sword, but… seems like Cook never had much practice with the sword as much as Bernette did.

"3… 2… 1… Go!" I spoke and both of them moved towards each other.

Bernette was much faster than Cook, who was trying her best to run towards Bernette and soon…

-Swish! ƒ𝗿e𝘦𝚠𝗲𝚋n𝚘ν𝙚𝗹.𝑐o𝙢

-Clank!

Cook's sword fell off in an instant as Bernette pointed her sword below Cook's chin, making her gulp a little.

"Okay, that's enough," I spoke as I moved towards the girls with their future training plan in my mind. I already have the plans which Zero gave me, but I would like to add my own things in this since this seems kind of fun, honestly.

"Bernette, you are going to fight Cook daily, helping her reach the next level faster. As for Cook, other than fighting with Bernette, you are going to do a lot of physical training. I won't give you any council work unless I think you are ready to reduce your physical training. Also, wear these uniforms, they are especially made for physical training," I said as I took out those 10 kg uniforms and gave it to them to wear.

Bernette narrowed her eyes at those uniforms and Cook, as soon as she tried holding them, fell down as she looked like she would pass out at any moment.

"Welcome to hell, I suppose," Bernette spoke as she held those uniforms in her hands. Even though she looked fine, she wasn't making a delighted face, and she sighed before asking me,

"Is that how you got strong?"

"You can say that." I spoke with a smile on my face as I looked at Bernette. Though I didn't tell them that I was wearing 500 Kgs myself right now. Well, I guess they too should be wearing this by the end of the year… especially given how Zero planned it for them.

'I should get some training as well,' I thought as I recalled he gave one training schedule to me as well.

"Are you sure I can handle this?" Cook asked as she looked as self doubt marred her eyes and I pondered a little before speaking,"If my eyes haven't gotten rusty, then yeah… you can easily handle this. It might be really hard at first, but yeah… you can." She looked at me with doubtful eyes and stood up slowly, pulling up the uniform with all her might, and then all three of us began walking into the building.
