His Devious Harbinger: How To Tame A Wicked God?

Chapter 118: When she wrongs a god?



Chapter 118: When she wrongs a god?

A heavy silence descends in the hall. All the gods stare at the girl, surprised by her words. Judging the gods? No one ever had said something like this before. 

Can a mortal ever judge a god? 

"Can you repeat your words, Mortal?" Noras asks the girl with a calm voice. He glances at Adira who is watching the girl quietly. This girl is the last renasir. She is Adira's bride. Then, why is she doing here? He will let this go if she changes her words. 

Ari speaks louder, "I said that I am here to judge the gods for their sins."

The silence among the people is broken by the whispers. Aren leans back in his seat and crosses his arms. He's been wondering where Ari had gone after he left that place with God Naughty. To think that she would come here and challenge the gods for his younger brother, a girl like her is truly rare.

"Renasir, we know that you sacrificed your life to save our world once." Mahuna tilts her head slightly. "However, you do not become above the gods. Just what makes you qualified to judge us?"

"Qualification?" Ari lets out a laugh. "What makes you qualified to judge us?"

"What did you?" Mahuna glowers at her. "Do you know who are you talking to?"

"Of course, I know who you are." Ari smiles at her. "You are a goddess. I don't need to know more. Now, I am going to start questioning. Please cooperate with me, Lady."

"You!" Mahuna stands up and slams the table. Her eyes become burning orange. The fire emits from her body. Niela frowns and shifts away from her, preparing herself to use her powers in case the goddess of fire goes on a rampage. 

"Don't." Ea grabs Mahuna's hand. "We can't lose our temper because of a mortal. Otherwise, there would be no difference between them and us."

"Ah no difference." Ari clicks her tongue. "Are you that different from us? As much as I know, God of light made a wrong judgment. Did he ever apologize to that person or that person's family? Why would God Noras do that? He's a god, right?"

Adira's eyes don't leave Ari. It seems that she had made a decision. His heart is restless. What is she going to do?

"We are not gathered here to talk about something that happened more than ten thousand years ago. In reality, you are not even related to this." Noras furrows his brows. He looks at the guards. "Bring her inside."

The door is opened by the gatekeeper. Two guards bring a young girl inside. She stops only two metres away from Ari. The girl with golden eyes raises her head and looks at Adira. Though she has Amara's memories, she is still not that woman. However, she's not Kresi either. That life seems too foreign to her. She hasn't been able to digest everything. 

"She is the real Kresi Mirin, the harbinger of the Dark God." Noras says to Ari, "After you replaced her soul in her body, her sins were transferred to you. She will take back those sins. After that, you won't be related to this case."

"Is that so?" Ari turns her head toward Kresi and beams at her. "You really look like a Mirin. Are you really Kresi? The one who killed Aeline Starfire and bound this child to Belan?"

So, it's that girl. Cina clenches his teeth. Whether she gets punished in this trial or not, he's going to torment her for eternity. 

Kresi looks at Ari, the person who replaced her and saved the world. Though she has known that she would have met Ari here, she didn't expect Ari to talk to her with a casual tone. Honestly, she doesn't want to see the renasir. She just wants this trial to be over. It would be one more punishment. Her voice is low and calm. "I am Kresi Mirin, the reincarnation of Amara who the first wife of the Dark God. I was the one who started the war around ten thousand years ago. Today, I take back all the sins that were transferred to Ari's soul when she was in my body."

The Dark God takes a breath of relief. He was worried that Kresi might not take back those sins. Thankfully, she did take those sins back. The debts are Kresi's burdens now. He will do his best to protect Kresi since she was his harbinger once. Amara's dues have already been paid. 

"Did you hear that?" Noras questions Ari. "It's time for you to step aside."

Ari looks down at Ai's face. The boy is peering at Kresi curiously. If she lets go of this boy's hand, he will not open his eyes tomorrow. "I refuse."

"Ari!" Adira shouts at her. "Step aside."

"I refuse." Ari eyes him darkly. "To return those sins back to her. In reality, Kresi is the one who is unrelated to this case. Get her out of here."

Baffled, Kresi gapes at the girl. What is this girl even saying? Does she understand the meaning of keeping those sins? She scowls at Ari. "Are you pitying me? I don't need your help. This is not the worst that has happened to me. Stop acting like a saint and leave. This is not your battle."

"It's funny that you would say that now." Ari shakes her head and laughs. "I became the harbinger after you were gone. I accepted your body, your fate, your name, and everything else that you left behind. I freed the Dark God and returned his heart to him. After everything that happened so far, I am being told that this is unrelated to me. How I am not a part? Fine then, I am going to make myself a part of this. You heard me. I refuse to return those sins to you. Even if you are willing, you can't take it back."

She's crazy. Kresi widens her eyes and mutters, "Why are you doing this?"

"I am tired of this shitty world, just like you were." Ari faces the gods. "I am tired of these shitty gods who made this world into a messy place. I regret saving the world where kids like Kresi, Ai, and others have to die. If I still had the heart of the dark god, I would have destroyed this world where the gods can never be questioned after they make mistakes."

"Why do you always choose women who want to destroy the world?" Aeis murmurs. "I actually liked this girl."

Adira closes his eyes. Did she have to speak like that? She could be thrown in the prison for threatening the world right now. "Ari, just let this go and give her sins back to her. You shouldn't take someone's chance at redemption."

"Thirteenth God, don't speak informally to me." Ari gives him an artificial smile. "I don't think that we are close enough."

That hurts. He narrows his eyes on her. "You are my wife."

"I was," Ari utters the words slowly. "I died and was reborn as someone else. Even if I have my past life memories, we are not husband and wife. If you still say that we are, then Kresi is also your wife. Is that the case, Dark God?"

Adira is speechless after hearing that. Is she truly going to be like this? Seeing her indifferent attitude toward him, he gnashes his teeth and flares his nostrils. "Then, are we strangers after everything we went through?"

She puckers her lips and looks up at the ceiling, creasing her forehead as if she's thinking something hard. "It's a difficult question. We can't be called strangers Then, what is the word? Ah! We are exes. I broke up with you that day. There's nothing between us now. So, God of darkness, thirteenth god, or whatever you are called, please act professionally. We are having a trial right now. You are a fucking judge and I am the defendant."

"So, Adira is single again." Mirinae has been enjoying the trial so far. This kind of trial has never happened before. "Niela, you still have a chance."

"Shut up!" Niela snaps at her. Who knew that Adira was married twice?  "Who wants a man who had lost two wives?"

Noras exhales, feeling tired. It's only been ten minutes since the trial started, but he feels like it's been more than ten thousand years. Why is nothing going his way? 

"We aren't exes." The word 'exes' feels strange to speak. Adira puts his elbows on the table and says to Ari with a chilling tone, "I refuse to end things between us."

Wasn't this trial supposed to be about the sins that she committed before she died? Kresi gawks at Adira. In the memories of Amara, Adira had never acted like this. He was a loving and gentle-hearted man. It's true that Amara had never loved Adira. It also seems like someone else has taken Amara's place in Adira's heart. 

"It has already ended." Ari replies coldly, "That day it ended between us."

"If you can deny returning the sins to the original owner when the other person is willing to take it back, I can't deny that things haven't ended between us?" Adira raises his brow. "Who is going to question the renasir when she wrongs a god?"
