Chereads / Infinite loop / Chapter 21 - Chapter 20

Chapter 21 - Chapter 20

Akatsuki went to the library with Zeus. The library is a place where the records of each world is recorded.

It has no regards for time. It has both the past and the future records. So it should have that world's records too.

What Akatsuki did and his previous consciousness is also stored there.

They arrived at the library. It's a huge cross dimensional space.

It exists in all space and time. It travels through the space and always changes it's location.

"We are here." Zeus said pointing at a flying castle. It's floating and it's huge.

Akatsuki saw a scene that couldn't be described. It was unimaginable.

But he kept his calm face on.

"Yeah. Now tell me about the mess I made." He said to Zeus.

"Yeah. Let's get in and start our research." Zeus said and they entered the library.

They immersed themselves in research. Time doesn't exist in the library. So they don't have to worry about time passing.

Meanwhile, both Mizuki and Momoko are at Akatsuki's apartment. It's almost evening. But they have to discuss everything they heard and fix things between them.

"So our problem is the guy named Zeus? Who is that dude?" Momoko asked Mizuki.

"I don't know. But when I started listening, they were both talking and Zeus called himself a god." (Mi)

"Oh. But is that possible?" (Mo)

"I don't know. But what the hell is going on? Suddenly I feel like we don't even know who that is? The guy named Akatsuki. Who is he?" (Mi)

"Isn't he your brother? You two grew up together right?" (Mo)

"Yeah. But I have never seen him talk much to our parents and nor have seen his photos. The most photos I saw him in were with me." (Mi)

"So there are many things that we don't know. But we always thought that we know." (Mo)

"Maybe. But I still want to believe that he is my beloved brother." (Mi)

"Huuuh. Beloved? I thought you totally hated him." (Mo)

"Why would I? Oh and I remembered something. What did my brother actually do? I heard that he took the blame on him." Mizuki asked her.

Momoko was in a bind.

"Whatever do you mean by that?" She tried ignoring it.

"I knew it. What did you do?" Mizuki caught her and asked her.

"Your brother did nothing. He saved me but ended up taking the blame. That's all I'll say for now." Momoko gave her an answer.

"Okay. I understand." Mizuki nodded.

They both were silent when they heard a noise.

Someone came back and they hurriedly hid themselves.

They went to the kitchen and peeked from there.

Akatsuki and Zeus came back.

"Hah. So much work." Akatsuki said.

"Most of it is your fault." Zeus retorted.

"You don't have any say in it. When I died you should've sent me to Hades. But you put my soul in line for reincarnation. And that's how it began. So more like it's your fault." Akatsuki stated that.

Zeus didn't get back at him because he was correct.

"Well anyway. You now know what to do. And you will be given the power beforehand. So you'll have a easy time getting by." Zeus said.

"But what was I doing with all those girls and why Both Mizuki and Momoko are involved." Akatsuki asked.

"You are the hero. So they are your companions. A goddess and powerful comrades who can be your wives as well." (Z)

"Don't joke with me. I am your average joe. I don't need such exalted title. I'll do the job. Just don't get me into trouble." He begged him.

"There you go again. Your dream from middle school was this right. You wanted to have a harem which had both Mizuki and Momoko and strong women. I am fulfilling your wish." (Z)

"I gave up that because it's not possible. Both of them are out of my reach. They should find good looking men for themselves. Also Mizuki is my sister." He said.

"Now don't say that. I clearly know who she is." Zeus snickered.

"Don't say that." Akatsuki had a really scary look.

"But it's true right. You are not related to her in any way." Zeus said.

"You said it." Akatsuki punched Zeus in the face.

Though it shouldn't work. But Zeus was bleeding. His lips were red with blood.

"Don't ever say that again. You probably know why I can't say that." Akatsuki said.

"Yeah. Sucks to be you." Zeus wiped his lips and said.

"But when did you find out?" He asked.

"On my elementary school graduation day. It was quite a scene." He said.

"Don't worry. Only three people know about it. Let me be the fourth one." Zeus said.

"Remember if you mess up, I will kill you. Besides I hate guys like you." Akatsuki expressed his disgust.

"Why?" Zeus comically asked.

"You make women cry. You make love with women willy nilly. How many kids do you have?" He asked.

"Hey. That's not a nice thing to say. I love women. But I can't choose one. So I take all of them. You aren't better than me are you?" He asked him back.

"Well no. But at least I stay away from them. I haven't done anything to them. So I am better than you at least." He said.

"Now don't forget the plan. You die next month. Be ready." Zeus said.

"Ok. I won't mess up this time but don't involve the girls. I don't want them to dirty their hands." Akatsuki said.

"Ok. Let's grab dinner. It's late right?" (Z)

"Your treat." Akatsuki said.

"Ok. I can do that much." Zeus said and they left.

Mizuki and Momoko came out of the kitchen. They were listening to it very carefully.

"That was even more outrageous." Momoko said.

But Mizuki was distraught. She somehow came to know that Akatsuki isn't her real brother.

"Don't let it bother you. He still loves you as his sister." Momoko tried cheering her up.

But Mizuki started laughing.

"Now I can finally marry him." Like she had found a new hope.

"What?" Momoko screamed.

Momoko is kinda creeped out by it. She never imagined that Mizuki would say something like that.

"Marry him? What do you mean? You can't marry him?" Momoko forbade her.

"No. I can. He is not related to me. So I can marry him. Or do you want to marry him?" Mizuki asked.

"Of course. I have been in love with him since fifth grade. I won't let you get married to him." Momoko admitted it.

She even had a bold face that goes with it.

"Uwah. So bold. You openly said it. I am amazed at how bold you are. But our discussion has to wait. We have a lot of questions." Mizuki said.

"Yeah. We can decide it later. They are out for dinner. So how about you come to my house?" Momoko said.

"No. I have a better idea. Since my brother did nothing wrong. How about you come to my home? You can stay and eat. My mom loves cooking. So I'll tell her to cook some extra." Mizuki said.

"Would that really be good? I feel a bit guilty about it." Momoko was sad. She could've saved them from the social problem. But yo teach Akatsuki a lesson, she had stayed quiet.

"Don't worry. My parents are already over that. It won't affect us." Mizuki encouraged her.

"Ok." Momoko agreed.

They left his apartment as it is. But the door wasn't locked.

"Hey he didn't lock the door." Momoko said.

"What? But he isn't so careless. Who left last?" Mizuki asked.

"Maybe it was that Zeus guy. Did he leave it open on purpose?" Momoko wondered.

"Could he have known that we were here?" Mizuki was astonished.

"If he really is a god, then maybe. So we can find answers through him. Akatsuki won't answer us but he will." Momoko said.

"Then tomorrow, we are searching for him. Are you free?" Mizuki asked her.

"Yeah. I am free. So how about going to my house in the morning and then searching for him?" Momoko proposed.

"Sounds good." Mizuki agreed and they went to her house.
