Chapter 99: [Reverse Arrays!]
Reverse Arrays.
If I am going to explain this, then it would be better if I give a brief of Arrays first.
You probably already know that arrays are a combination of signs and symbols drawn on a paper. When mana flows through them, they activate and do their function before getting erased on their own.
The erasure is by destruction of the material or the surface on which they are built on.
Arrays, in essence, can be classified into two types again. Open Array and closed one.
Simply said, closed Arrays function like a mana circle that takes in mana and does it function.
As for open arrays, they take in mana as well, but they also pass out mana from certain open ends. Think of an open arc in a mana circle that doesn’t connect with anything.
With that much basic knowledge in mind, we come back to Reverse Arrays.
Reverse Arrays are a type of open array that takes in mana from the open ends and keeps storing inside the circle.
The best thing about this type of Arrays is that it keeps storing mana and concentrating them somewhere within the circle. The longer it operates, the better the impact or effect.
So, how is all this connected to the current problems?
To be honest, I believe this array had been here for quite a while and had stored a vast amount of mana. Not only that, it also has very few open ends, meaning it can be closed pretty easily.
Reverse Arrays perform their function by simply closing the open ends. It can be done by blocking the open end with a powerful artifact or by connecting it somewhere within the circle.
‘The curse object must have been used to block it… but then what happened to Tiara?’ I questioned as I looked back at her.
“Sure, but… what do I get in return?”
She looked at me with a pleading look before she let me go and began thinking.
“Ummm… I am not good at things like these… Actually, if it is okay with you, can someone else take that decision instead of me?” She asked.
“Someone?” I was taken aback for a moment before she nodded and then spoke.
“Ilend moou anue? Lna ue,” she spoke in the same language before as she looked behind at the tree bark.
[Evian Language +1]
And as we stood there, a woman appeared out of the woods. It was the same woman who killed me in my last turn, the dryad, Nvida.
“Trisha, you called?” Asked Nvida as she looked at us before ignoring completely. Her eyes were strangely exhausted, even though they were usually bright.
“Remember the problem with the strange big array?” She asked Nvida, and she nodded with a sudden interested look. The previous tiredness seemed to be recovered with slight expectations now.
“He figured out in a single look,” Tiara pointed at me with a smile on her face. Hearing these words, Nvida turned at me instantly, as her eyes turned dubious.
“He did?” Nvida asked as she moved closer to me, before she reached closer to me and asked again,” you did?”
“Kind of… may I know who you are?” I asked respectfully, as this was the first time I was meeting as ‘Wesker.’
“Oh darling, we can know each other forever. But first,” she then moved closer to me, almost reaching to kiss me.
[One Way Out!]
[Charm Boosted!]
And with the French Kiss that was as sexy as Nvida herself was, she then took a few steps back with a fresh smile.
“Now. Tell me, how can I save this forest and get rid of that damn array?” she asked with an expected look.
“But sweetheart, it won’t be fair to tell you everything, getting nothing in return, right?” I asked with a smirk as I looked down at her.
Her smile crumbled as she looked at me with her eyes getting confused. But before she could understand, I held her hand and brought her closer to me and kissed her again.
Took my time kissing her, before letting her go as she wiped her lips before glaring at me.
“How?” she asked.
“That’s a surprise,” Tiara was surprised as well. From her looks, it didn’t seem like Tiara was on guard against me. Just simple curiosity.
“Since you guys would eat me out. Me and my brothers are blessed by a certain being that we cannot speak of,” I spoke as I looked at Nvida as her eyes almost popped out of her sockets.
Keeping my index finger on my lips, I smiled and winked at her, making her gulp in confusion.
‘I remember when I did the same thing when I was ‘Morpheus’ with her.’ I recalled our first meeting at that time, too.
The encounter was exactly the same, and so was the response. Though she must be surprised to know that ‘I and Morpheus are brothers’.
“Must be quite a special being.” Trisha seemed interested in that, but I shook my head as I changed the topic,
“Back to the main thing. What do I get in return for saving the forest?”
“You can have me,” Nvida, who had accepted the ‘truth’ stared at me with a sexy expression. But I smiled awkwardly as I spoke,
“I am free from charm, but that doesn’t mean that I won’t die if my life energy is sucked out of me.”
“You really are his brother,” Nvida sighed as she asked again,” then? What else do you want from us?”
Anna, Leena and Trisha observed everything with an interest as they sat on the leaf floor. They seemed to eat some berries provided by Trisha to them.
“If not Nvida, then what if you get me? I mean, if it’s just sexually for a single time. I don’t mind,” Trisha spoke as she ate a bunch of berries.
“…”
“…”
“…”
And I just stood there with a blank expression, without being able to answer her at all.
