Reincarnated as an Energy with a System

"You never told me you were a Duke's daughter," Ning told Camie. 

"Oh, you never asked, master," the girl said. Now that she didn't have the same frowning face as back when she had visited the City of Beginnings, she looked a little more beautiful.

"Okay, if anyone asks who I am, just tell them I am with you," Ning said.

"Okay master, but why are you here?" the girl asked.

"Oh right, I'm here to find someone. Help me get there," Ning said as he gave her the information he knew.

"Oh, that room? Thats… not a area of the house I usually visit," Camie said.

"Oh, what is this place?" Ning asked.

"It's a spare room of sorts for the servants. Usually if they have people over, or we take in a few too many servants, they are given those rooms," Camie said.

"Hmm, take me there."

Camie nodded and walked in front while Ning followed her. After a minute or so, they came across the room. 

"This is it," Camie said, resisting her urge to call him master in the presence of the maids that walked by.

Ning knocked on the door and waited. "You can go now," he told Camie, and watched her leave.

The door opened to an unfamiliar face. This wasn't the person he was looking for. 'There are more than one terrorists? Why is the duke letting them stay here? Or is it one of the servants?' Ning thought. 

"Can I help you?" the person asked. They had been told that the servants wouldn't bother them, but somehow there was a guy on the door.

"Can I come in?" Ning asked with a smile. Before he even got an answer, however, he pushed the door to walk in on 5 people playing cards in the room.

They were all between the age of 20 and 40, and wore the same drab looking clothes, possibly to hide their presence from places.

"Who are you?" the people asked. However, one of them didn't speak. Instead, he held an incredulous look of shock and surprise on his face.

Ning looked at all of them. "Are you all from the Great Raiders group?" he asked.

The group were a little surprised that he realized their affiliation. When they were about ask how he knew, the one that was shocked immediately pulled out a gun and pointed at Ning.

"Wake up you idiots! That's him, the person I shot today," the man cried out. 

When the group realized who he was, they all brought out guns as well as started using Aether to control his body.

Ning simply shook his head. "Who sent you to kill the princess?" he asked. 

"The princess? HAH! We came here to kill you," the group said.

"Huh?" the moment Ning showed the slightest sense of hesitation, the group all shot at him. 

Numerous sound of gunshot rang across the servant's quarters. The nearby servants immediately ran away in terror when they heard the noise. 

Camie looked back in worry towards the room, but she didn't know if she should go help her master. After all, she wasn't the strongest at using Aether.

<br/>Dozens upon dozens of holes appeared on Ning's clothes. However, not a single drop of blood dripped from his body. In fact, there was not a single wound, not even a scratch on his body.

Just when he noticed the guns, Ning had already started strengthening his body with Aether. By the time he was shot at, the bullets couldn't even penetrate his skin.

Ning was himself surprised a bit when he didn't even feel the bullets hit him. It sort of let him understand for one how strong his body could get, and for another just how strong that dagger attack of Sam was that cut his arm to the bone.

'That vibrating dagger skill was really amazing,' he thought. 

The terrorists watched in awe as they saw the numerous bullets on the floor. "How are you—"

Ning shot the bullets that were on the ground back towards the terrorists. He shot them so fast that the bullets ended up entering the bodies of the terrorists that weren't ready to protect themselves.

  The only one that was still alive was the one that shot him in the slums today.

Ning walked up to the trembling man and grabbed him by the shirt. He pulled him up and asked him, "You were here to kill me?" 

The man was too scared to answer, so Ning created a ball of flame next to the man's face and kept it floating there to threaten him.

"Who ordered you to kill me?" he asked with a serious tone. 

The trembling terrorist was so scared that he practically started singing the answer.

"It was our boss. It was the boss. We have nothing to do with this. Our boss ordered us to come here and attack you. I swear," the terrorist shouted.

"Are you sure?" Ning asked.

"Yes! Yes!" the man cried. 

"Very well," Ning moved the flame away from the terrorist's face. The terrorist sighed in relief when he saw the flame dim… just a second before it came back blazing in a pure white color. 

The temperature in the room immediately skyrocketed as the terrorist started fearing once more what was coming.

Ning dropped the flame on him, burning him at such a high temperature, that in just a few seconds of touching the man, he had 3rd degree burns all over his body.

The man cried a terrible scream. In the next 2 seconds, his body charred, and in the next 5 seconds, it fully turned to ashes. 

Ning then spread the fire to the rest of the dead bodies, making sure to isolate the fire only there and nowhere else. In less than a minute, the men that were originally in the room were there no more.

Ning looked at the room solemnly before decided to go look for this boss of theirs.

Once he got the information about his location, Ning vanished.
