BXBX NOVEL Chapter 40 Khela203
Chapter 40 Khela203
Kan\'s father caught sight of him and grinned, his words slightly slurred as he attempted to speak over the blaring music. "Kan, how was your day at school? I hope you had a great time!!"
Kan raised an eyebrow, his tone dripping with sarcasm as he muttered to himself, "Sure, but not as great as you seem to be having now."
Deciding it was best to avoid the chaotic scene, Kan retreated to his room. He let his bag fall to the floor and changed into fresh clothes, feeling the need to wash away the odd mixture of irritation and amusement that had settled within him.
With a sigh, he made his way to the kitchen, passing by his father and the woman who had sprawled out on the couch in a tangle of limbs. The sight was enough to make Kan cringe inwardly, but he quickly shook off the discomfort.
Finding solace in the kitchen, Kan reheated some of the leftover food that Aunt Layla had prepared during her last visit. As he ate, he couldn\'t help but let his mind wander to the strange events of the day. It had been a whirlwind, from his newfound magical abilities to making friends and encountering Ellie again.
Just as he was lost in his thoughts, a familiar voice chimed in his mind, breaking through his reverie. [Hey baby!!] Hela\'s voice resounded, her playful tone causing a bemused smile to tug at Kan\'s lips.
"Hey there," Kan replied mentally, a hint of amusement in his thoughts.
Hela didn\'t waste any time getting to her point. [You know, I still have Ellie\'s contact information. You should message her!!]
Kan chuckled, appreciating the system\'s eagerness to play matchmaker. "Yeah, I guess I should. But, um, I don\'t have my com device with me, and I can\'t really go out to the living room right now..."
Hela\'s response was swift and direct, a mixture of exasperation and amusement lacing her words. [I feel deeply insulted by the things you worry about.]
Kan couldn\'t help but chuckle at the dramatic response. "Alright, alright, my bad. Can you contact her for me then?"
[Of course. I mean, she gave her ID name, so I should be able to find her on her page. You want that, right?] Hela\'s teasing tone was unmistakable.
Kan rolled his eyes playfully. "Yes, Hela. That would be great."
As Hela worked her digital magic, Kan leaned back against his bed, his thoughts drifting back to the events of the day. Despite the chaos in his living room and the bizarre antics of his father, he couldn\'t help but feel a sense of contentment. The twists and turns of this new world had brought him unexpected encounters and opportunities, and he was ready to embrace whatever came next.
Before long, Hela\'s voice echoed in his mind once again. [Alright, message sent. Now let\'s hope for a swift response, shall we?]
Kan chuckled and nodded mentally. "Sure thing, Hela. Thanks."
With that, he settled back, his mind a mix of anticipation and curiosity. As he awaited Ellie\'s response, he couldn\'t help but marvel at how his life had taken such an intriguing turn with the aid of the system.

Kan sat on his bed, staring at the blinking three dots on the private message prompt. He watched as the dots danced in anticipation, a visual representation of Ellie\'s impending response. His heart raced a little, a mix of excitement and nervousness bubbling within him.
Suddenly, the dots disappeared, and a small image materialized in front of Kan\'s vision. It was Ellie\'s display picture, a snapshot capturing her in a moment of candid laughter. Kan couldn\'t help but smile at the sight, finding himself drawn to her infectious joy.
His thoughts momentarily slipped into a musing state. "This is similar to those social media platforms," Kan remarked, his mind processing the familiarity of the layout. He was reminded once again that his experiences in this new world often had echoes of his previous one, albeit with a fantastical twist.
[What?] Hela\'s voice broke through his reverie, a hint of curiosity in her tone.
Kan chuckled inwardly. "Oh, just thinking out loud. Nothing important."
*Ping!!*
A notification flashed before his eyes, indicating a new message from Elliizarh. Kan\'s heart skipped a beat, his gaze fixed on the words that appeared.
**New message from Elliizarh**
**Eliizarh:** Hello, who\'s this?
Kan felt a mix of excitement and uncertainty as he contemplated his response. He imagined Hela was present and glanced at her as it seemed to be equally invested in the exchange.
"Oh shit...fuck!! what do I say now?!" Kan panicked.
[What do you mean, what do you say? She just asked for a freaking name!! Tell her who you are, genius!!] Hela chimed in, her exasperation evident.
Kan grinned sheepishly. "Right, right. I\'m getting there. Just a little rusty, here and there,"
[No, you were never good to begin with. How can you be rusty with something you haven\'t even done before?!] Hela was quick to point out. Kan only smiled at this remark as only he knew what he was talking about. For some reason, Hela didn\'t know his full details.
*Ping!!*
Kan typed and erased several potential replies, a mixture of nervousness and indecision causing him to hesitate. He marveled at the fact that with the help of the system, he could communicate through thought, bypassing the need for physical typing.
[At some point, you are gonna have to come up with a reply, you know?] Hela\'s voice held a hint of impatience.
Kan took a deep breath and finally settled on a response.
**Khela203:** Hey Ellie, it\'s me, Kan, from school, remember?
Ellie\'s reply came swiftly.
**Eliizarh:** Oh, sorry, what\'s up Kan? I mean, I would have noticed it was you if you actually used a name close to your actual name. What\'s Khela203?
Kan raised an eyebrow, bemused by Ellie\'s response. He leaned back on his bed, the mental exchange making him feel as if he was having an actual conversation.
"Yes Hela, tell me what Khela203 means? By my balls, that\'s the lamest name ever!!" Kan paused his chatting with Ellie and focused on Hela.
[Says the guy whose name is "Kanakan". Don\'t act like you don\'t like it. I mean, would you have come up with anything better?!] Hela\'s voice rang out, a playful challenge in her words.
Kan couldn\'t help but chuckle. "Fair point, Hela."
The conversation continued, alternating between Ellie\'s messages and Hela\'s commentary. The chat inbox had a neat layout, displaying each message in a clean, organized manner. Kan found himself immersed in the back-and-forth, his fingers twitching with the urge to type even though he didn\'t need to.
As he navigated the exchange, he marveled at the way his life had transformed. From struggling to fit into this new world to making friends and connecting with someone he had met only once, everything felt both surreal and exhilarating.
His thoughts shifted back to the conversation at hand. Ellie\'s words appeared before him.
**Eliizarh:** Typing....
The conversation continued, flowing effortlessly between the digital realm and Kan\'s thoughts. As the words flowed, Kan felt a sense of connection that went beyond the screen. It was a reminder that even in this fantastical world, human interactions remained at the core of his experiences.
Hours passed, and as the conversation with Ellie eventually wound down, Kan found himself smiling. The screen blinked with the final message.
**Eliizarh:** It was nice catching up, Kan. Maybe we can chat more later?
Kan\'s heart fluttered, and he typed his response with a sense of eagerness.
**Khela203:** Definitely, Ellie. Looking forward to it.
With a satisfied sigh, Kan leaned back on his bed, his mind still buzzing with the pleasant exchange.
"Let\'s check out that quest again, I feel like I might be onto something," Kan thought with a dubious grin on his face.
