Re: Player-Chapter 163: [It’s a rather sad story!]

One leisurely afternoon, while taking a stroll with his wife, when Yemir was buying some vegetables for dinner, the Living Array activated for once.

Confused, Yemir tried to contain it, but it ended up being a bigger fail as it began destroying everything in its vicinity. His eyes worried, he got more anxious as the seconds passed.

"Run!!" He shouted frantically at his wife, who was trying to help him and seeing the terror in his eyes, she nodded as she spoke,

"I will bring back help."

Though having successfully escaped from there, his wife also got hurt, cursed by the effect a little. This came into his knowledge a little later during his travels.

Journeying towards a certain temple that was built for worshiping the God of Arrays.

It was a blood massacre, the journey, where that living array killed everyone who came across Yemir. Though still, he could barely keep some of his sanity even after all hell went loose.

And within the broken empty temple of that Ancient God, he prayed again.

The being that he detested the most in his entire life, Yemir prayed with all his heart, just so that he could call him.

And while seemingly insane, this 'prayer' worked after begging for 3 months and 10 days.

"It's you. Why is a slave daring enough to call me?" spoke that God of Arrays in a rather annoyed tone.

"I gave you a hundred God Arrays… then why is this thing still activated?" Yemir asked in return as he observed the God in front of him.

The hatred in the eyes of Yemir was obvious. And seeing it, the God of Array was amused. He had a mocking smile on his face as he spoke.

"It was going to activate, anyway. Those 100 arrays were just for fun so that you would struggle a little more. Oh, you poor soul… since you completed that meaningless task that I could do within seconds, let me tell you the truth, at least for your efforts."

"Everything that you love will be destroyed. Everything you care about will shatter into pieces."

"You were just a time bomb that I left in Zarraf so that you can blaze a couple of kingdoms and destroy everything around you. It was to get back at those other Gods who call themselves as 'True Gods' There was no such thing as your salvation… now go… and be a good pawn…"

The God of Array laughed, mocking the ashen face of Yemir, before he vanished from there.

And on his knees was Yemir, as his sanity began to wane. He was truly enraged.

Destroying the temple and everything around, he was like a walking tornado, killing everything in its sight. At this moment, he hated everything… he was rampaging.

And days after he had used up all his mana, he lost consciousness and fell asleep because of overexertion.

"After that, it took at least a few months for me to learn a couple of things. One was that the array would only activate if I were to have some positive feelings towards anyone. As long as I am neutral or negative, there would be no problem," Yemir reached the conclusion of his story.

He joined that dark society because the leader was strong enough to contain the Array a couple of times and add a few more restrictions. And until he could find out a proper way out, he decided to let the leader find a way to break his curse.

'One of the reasons he wanted to make Laplace more powerful, huh? So that Laplace could break him free,' I thought as I kind of got the complete picture right now.

Though it differs from the story that Leena told me at first… were there any things he manipulated… I don't think so.

'Then perhaps Leena's source wasn't that reliable? Hmmm… ' I turned to Leena, who had a silent expression. Anna sat behind her, with her eyes way more enraged than I have seen until now.

"Sir Wesker. Can you kill this God?" Anna asked directly as she looked at me, while I pondered about it.

An unkillable cockroach who somehow always manages to escape… that's the best way to define God of Arrays.

"It's not hard to kill him, just very hard to find him," I spoke to Anna, and she glared at me for a moment before turning to Yemir.

"Father. Where is that temple?! I will pray and call that son of a b*tch and Master will kill him." Anna was really fuming right now as she looked at Yemir.

I patted Anna's head and…

And let her sleep for the time being.

"Anna gave her answer. What about you?" Wesker asked as Leena kept staring at Yemir for quite some time. Her expression was hard to read at this moment. MVLeMpYr-hosted

"What if all this is a lie?" She mumbled as she stared at Yemir. And Wesker smiled as he answered,

"We can sign a contract if you want? That way, everything would be clear."

Yemir didn't seem to mind, but Leena was still conflicted as she kept staring. Though a few moments later, she finally spoke,

"I… will need some time to process this information."

Yemir nodded as he himself needed to sort his own feelings right now. While he was moved looking at his daughters… After not being able to for over years, it wasn't too hard to smile for real.

Trust, care and affections would be a miracle to show immediately. That too, only if gets over his regrets he had for so many years.

Leena then moved out of the room with the same conflicted expression, leaving only Wesker and Yemir and me in the room.

A strange silence was present in the area as we stayed there without muttering a single word.

"Thank you for saving me once again. You must be really capable, to remove that array in a single attempt. It was really a miracle to find you… I don't know if I will be of any use to you, but please don't hesitate if you need anything from me," Yemir spoke to Wesker with a firm expression.

"Sure," Wesker smiled at his response.

'Let's use him to get rid of the God of Array early,' I thought as I already had a couple of plans for him in the far future.
