Chapter 132: [Goddess of Space!]
“So. What do you know about this place?”
And looking at her half serious, half curious expression, I sighed as I began speaking everything I knew. I can’t lie here anyway.
The gist of it was about what she told me last time when I entered here. Like how one can’t lie and how all the curses will begin their effect right after we step out of here.
Yemir kept listening to me with a neutral expression while Quiana showed a rather curious expression.
“You really know a lot. It’s as if you were the one who made this place,” she looked at me with an analytical gaze and I just smiled,
“I will fulfill your curiosity after I get what I want from this space. That shouldn’t pose a problem, would it?”
She smiled back before she nodded and then turned to Yemir,” well. Did you catch what he said?”
Yemir nodded silently. He seemed to be having some questions of his own.
“Well. Everything he said is correct. So much so that I don’t need to tell anything more. If you have anymore questions though, I can still answer. But nothing that breaks the Laws of the universe, you know?”
She had that playful smile with a slight wink as she added,
“My 3 sizes aren’t off the table, though.”
‘This pervert,’ I sighed as I shook my head before looking at Yemir and speaking,
“You must be wondering why I brought you here. Especially with the fact that you will end up dying as soon as you get out of here-”
“It’s saving my daughters, isn’t it? I know for a fact that they are with you currently.” He reached his own conclusion pretty fast, and I shook my head, much to his disappointment.
“Not just your daughter, but your wife and you, too. And also to get rid of that cursed Array and that curse on Leena and Anna,” I added, making him both surprised and confused at the same time.
“But that’s-” he spoke, and I finished,” Impossible? Not really. At least not if you are in my shoes.”
“Sorry to interrupt, but you don’t have the capability to change that array. Maybe if you do hit and trial and end up breaking all the knots of that array in the proper order, then yeah. But fat chance that you are capable of that,” she spoke as she looked at me with a serious expression.
“Yeah. But I have infinite chances here to do over,” I spoke, making her look at me a bit stumped. I then observed Yemir and spoke,
“I have the ability to return by time and do things over. As many times as I want.”
“…”
“…”
Silence covered the entire space as they both looked at me for a couple of moments.
“You are lying!” Quiana shouted as she looked at me with a flabbergasted expression.
“Doesn’t that space forbids from doing that,” I scoffed before turning to Yemir, as I added,” it’s the first time in the space with you so I don’t know much what to do. You have to guide me through. I will take as many times as it needs, but will help you break this curse. Will that be fine?”
Yemir looked at me stumped as he stood there, still dazed. His eyes seemed to be still questioning the authenticity of my words.
“But how…” and Quiana was still having a hard time believing in me.
“You asked me to say this to you. May the Rose Flowers be brighter than the Blue Roses,” I added, making him look at me a bit more surprised than before.
Slowly his expression changed as he observed me with hope, as he finally asked,
“Will I really be fine? Will the curse finally be over? I can… meet my family?”
Looking at him, I nodded with a smile as I spoke.” I will try my best to make sure it happens.”
After all, it was one of the objectives of the quest. I hope the rewards are worth the trouble that I am going to go through.
“This is… ridiculous…” Quiana spoke as she looked at me with a rather surprised expression. Her eyes were thinking about something.
“I know what you are going to ask and no… I haven’t found him yet. But I will do that too, as long as you give me a partial authority of space. That was our promise that will be all there to it,” I made my point, making her shut her mouth.
“But that’s-” she was about to shout at how it would be difficult even for her, but I glared at her, making her shut up.
“Look. I have had this conversation with you many times, and that’s where we settled. For now, I am going to focus on him. Help me out and maybe I will talk with you about it,” I spoke with a serious expression.
This was the reason I didn’t want to use this item. This pervert crybaby goddess was a pain in the ass to deal with. Especially because of her childish nature half the times.
Timidly she then bowed her head down before slowly murmuring,” but I am the Goddess of Space.”
“Just a fragment,” I added with a smirk, making her look at me again.
Ignoring her, I then turned to Yemir and spoke,
“Turn around. Let’s start with the experiment. This is going to take sometime.”
He nodded without asking any question and I looked at that Array before taking a peek at Quiana who was observing us.
“Care to help us? Miss Goddess of Space?” I asked as I looked at her and she glared at me before muttering,” meanie.”
And then she walked up to me and then looked at that array and spoke,
“This Array is living and is deriving its power from Yemir. So, other than normally unwinding it, we first need to weaken it, create its own network so that it doesn’t blast out and separate it from Yemir. And finally, erase it slowly.”
That much I already knew, but the question was to where to start from. Starting it randomly will take forever… and even if the first step works, doesn’t mean it’s correct.
But… we gotta start from somewhere….
