Rebirth: The Villainous Young Master Doesn't Want to Follow the Script

************

LOCATION: MAIN HOUSE SYSTEM – UNIVERSAL REALM

*****UPPER FLOOR – LUMEVOID ABODE****

Jules explained to Cyrus about the dangers of what followed if ever he activated his authority to reconnect with Arico and Eclipse on the worldline where the two got stranded for more than three thousand years.

Well, to be more precise, in that worldline, those two got stranded there for three years in that worldline already without the help of their system interfaces.

'Since Eclipse was originated from that worldline, I know that he could handle himself pretty well and besides, he had someone with his side and I know both of them are in good hands, for now.'

Jules thought as he remembered about the other agent named Arico from the Slayer Department. If he was with Eclipse then, that would put them at ease, for now.

The reason for Eclipse to be reincarnated back to his original world is because of his soul energy that seems to have some problems.

Cyrus mentioned before that there is something wrong with Eclipse's soul energy, but he didn't dwell that much on it because it could be dangerous for the both of them if he tried to pierce through his soul energy that much.

The Lord God knew that Cyrus wasn't interested about the Leader position because Cyrus mentioned about it before for a long time, but he also stated his reason for not giving up the successor position yet.

Not until Eclipse showed up and became one of the successor candidates, alongside him.

« .... "It will be better for me just to put on a show that I'm still one of the successor candidates, even though I already given up that position for a long time ago but in order to protect Eclipse, I need to be once again in this position for now." ... »

Sometimes, Jules didn't know how to react in this kind of situation, and it seems that most of the events are always centered at Eclipse that it makes him chuckle for a moment.

'It feels like he became some sort of protagonist, just like in those other worldlines out there and he just happened to be a former minor villain in his original worldline though.'

Now that he thought about it, Jules haven't found the answers on how Eclipse got the minor villain role in [Mystique Enchantress] worldline since his originally designated role is nothing but a background character.

It's as if someone tampered with his….

Jules paused for a moment when a sudden thought came right into him…

Now, that he almost thought about it….

Right now, he looked at Cyrus who still kneeled in front of him after he said those words from earlier and this young man who haven't move even for an inch and his stoic expression stays the same.

For someone like Cyrus, as a person who is stubborn as a rock, to kneel in front of him for Eclipse's sake, sometimes he finds it a little bit conflicting with this situation.

It wasn't that he didn't want to help but rather, if Jules activated his authority just to reconnect with those two who got stranded in that worldline, if he makes his move that hastily and made a mistake with it then, things would turn out worse.

"Lord God Jules, you're not the only divine being that has that kind of authority, am I right?"

Both gentlemen snapped when they heard what Cyrus stated and Jules frowned as he looked at Cyrus who just spoken out of nowhere.

"You brat! Watch your tone! What kind of question is that?!"

Red shouted at the young man but didn't fully scold him because they were still in front of their master, and he didn't want to become some unreasonable adult here.

'Just what in the f*cking hell is this stubborn brat was talking about?!'

Red thought as he glared at the young man but couldn't say anything more than what he said earlier.

"Are you pertaining to something else here, Cyrus?"

Both Cyrus and Red noticed the changes of their master's tone, and this wasn't the first time that their master had a serious tone when speaking.

Cyrus, without an ounce of fear, looking straight into their Lord God's unrelenting gaze and said; "It doesn't matter how you interpret my words, Lord God Jules. All I have to say is that… I have a solution on the problem but… there is a risk though."

After he said that, he smiled bitterly as he looked at his master and Jules, upon looking those eyes, sighed and shook off his head because he could tell already.

"No. That's ridiculous, Cyrus! I forbid you from doing that!"

Jules yelled and Red almost jumped in surprise because it's rare for their master to raise his voice to someone else and he didn't know what they were talking about to begin with.

'Just what in the world they were talking about?'

Cyrus, stubborn as ever, pushed it through as he speak once more; "Lord God, please, I'm begging you. This is the only way. Also, it's my duty as well. I need to fulfill this before I regret everything."

Red gasped as he looked at the young man's vulnerable appearance in front of them and he didn't expect him to say those words in front of their master.

'No way! This kid—! As someone who is stubborn and prideful, he lowered himself and begged to our master…. Just what in the world….'

Also, he remembered what Cyrus stated earlier about [it's his duty] and [need to fulfill before he regrets it].

For some reason, instead of being wary of Cyrus like he usually does but he couldn't help but feel a sense of camaraderie within him.

He didn't know what to think as of right now.

He snapped from those thoughts and looked at the Lord God's reaction first because right now, this young man just begged in front of him for Eclipse's sake and for that moment, even him, he didn't know what to feel for now.

"You know to yourself, Lord God. There is another way in order to reconnect with them but in my opinion, we should prioritize Eclipse first and I know that Slayer Agent Arico would definitely understand the situation though."

Red didn't try to integrate himself into the conversation and just watched on the sidelines silently and observed them for now.

'Prioritizing to reconnect with Eclipse first? I don't know if that would be a good idea but since the system interfaces aren't that fully fixed up until now, it would be better if one of them could reconnect with the system interface for now.'

Red thought as he looked at the Lord God and noticed how he felt conflicted for a moment.

He didn't know the full extent of the Lord God's authority and only knew about the key parts on it but everything about it, he doesn't know the full capacity on how this could truly affect the caster and its surroundings.

There is a way to reconnect with both Arico and Eclipse however; by doing that, it will put the Lord God into a tight spot.

"I suggest that you should speak about this matter to the other divine being who held the almost similar authority to you, Lord God Jules. I bet he wouldn't refuse my offer if you manage to address it properly."

Red looked at the young man with rage because of his statement; "H-hey, you—!"

However, Red was stopped mid-sentence for scolding Cyrus because of his sudden insolent remarks when he saw the Lord God raised his hand to stop him and the Lord God's cold azure-colored eyes looked straight into Cyrus' amber-colored eyes.

"You brat. You really know how to get someone else's nerves because of that sharp tongue of yours, don't you? I don't know if you're sincerely kneeling in front of me or you just wanted to negotiate some things with me?"

Jules said in a calm and serious matter, and it makes Red became anxious all of the sudden because he could tell within those cold azure-colored eyes of his master that, as of this moment, he is totally pissed off.

And the culprit? Of course, it's that brat's fault!

'Just what in the f*cking hell?! Does he really need to anger the Lord God for his stubborn request to be fulfilled?!'

However, if it where for Red, he would also try to negotiate with his master in order to help them about Eclipse, but he also prioritize the Lord God's tight spot if he ever activated his authority that recklessly.

Minutes had passed since then and after that, a loud crisp of laughter resonates within the whole floor that makes Red snapped from his thoughts and then, looked at their master anxiously who just laughed out loud.

"D-did you hear what this son of b*stard was talking about, Red? Hahaha! My stomach hurts from laughing this much! Hahaha!"

'O-okay, now what?'

Red thought as he sighed; "Pardon, master?"

The Lord God shook off his head as he tried to calm himself from laughing and after that, he had composed himself and then chuckled as he speaks.

"You got me there, Cyrus. Okay, you win. However, for now, let me think about this matter first. After that, I'll summon you, together with Red here if I manage to organize my thoughts about this matter. Both of you may go for now."
