My King System Chapter 189
Advertisement
Now having heard why Yuki committed the actions he did, Marcell and Elpis stood dumbfounded in the attic as they simply stared at the child which they had taken in as their own for a whole year.
There were 2 ways which they could have handled the situation. The first one being that they would accept him once more as all his actions were either accidental or as a form of self defence. On the other hand, they could hand him over to the authorities since he was still a criminal no matter what since murder should never be justified wether it was accidental or even as a form of self defence. They had to choose which type of judgment to invoke upon Yuki.
"Look, I know how you must feel. I'll just make my way out. Sorry for bothering you," said Yuki as he began to walk away towards the ladder which would lead him down to the second floor of the house which he would take the stairs from and leave the house before teleporting away.
"Wait!" Marcell yelled before letting out a loud sigh.
"What you did was wrong. Killing even one person is a huge sin let alone over 3000 people. You couldn't even remember their names if you tried. However it wouldn't be possible for us to cast you out of our family. We just can't. Since the day we found out about who you really are, we've been worried sick about you. Basically, what I'm trying to say is that we would be willing to forget about all your previous sins but that's under one condition. That one conduction being that you can no longer kill a single person from now on. No matter the circumstances, you are forbidden to kill another person," Marcell started with a serious face.
"Of course I'll agree to those conditions," said Yuki as he got to his knees in happiness.
As he turned around he saw the face of Elpis who was crying behind him. At first Yuki assumed that her tears were that of joy, however as the seconds passed, they became more clear as they were tears of sadness.
"No... you didn't... did you?" Marcell asked as his fingers began to shake in fear.
"I'm sorry... I really am sorry," said Elpis to Yuki as she continued to cry.

"Why would you be sorry?" Yuki asked in a confused tone as he continued to smile, trying to make himself believe that everything was alright.
Just then the attic window shattered as the entire room began to get swarmed by a couple of people who looked to be dressed in full armour. That was when Yuki realized that Elpis was saying sorry for calling the people who were sent to capture him.
"I understand... sorry Marcell but I don't think I'll be able to keep that promise I just made to you," said Yuki as he got up from the floor with his fist balled up. Yuki quickly changed his ability to the one which he has before he changed it to be that which allowed him to clone himself.
...
"Activate ability: Fire control"
Yuku covered his fist in flames as he punched the ground which let loose a fury of flames which spread out in all directions as they burned both Marcell along with Elpis and the other people who were called in to recapture Yuki.
Yuki walked out the house a moment later as it continued to burn while others gathered around it in confusion as they wondered what had caused the flames since they couldn't see Yuki clearly in the dark.
"Hey Zero, turn back time to the point where I had begun to walk away from the house and Elpis was about to open it," said Yuki.
"Your wish is my command," Zero replied as he did what he was told. Once realizing that Zero had turned time to the exact moment, Yuki prepared to give out his next command.
...
"Hey Zero, teleport me back to where Scar is waiting for me," Yuki said and Zero did exactly that.
Right before Yuki teleported, Elpis opened the door as she looked out to see a figure quickly disappear from her sight which made her wonder if she was seeing things.
...
"I seriously need to sleep more. I've started to hear and see things," said Elpis as she once again closed the door of her house to return to her husband and daughter.
...
Once he had been teleported back, Yuki looked at Scar with a face which seemed to be saddened yet also disappointed.
"What happened? Why do you look so sad?... unless, did you magically get teleported to the house at which your host family lived and when you went there, they treated you with love and affection until the final moment where you realized that they had set you up to get captured once again however before you could get captured, you managed to kill everyone then turned time once again to the point right before you greeted them just in case the people who went sent to capture you had already informed the higher ups about your existence and by simply turning back time, you managed to stop getting yourself captured? " said Scar at a very fast speaking rate which causes him to gasp for air when he finished his sentence.

Hearing Scar's words just completely confused Yuki. There was no possible way for Scar to know all which had taken place on a whole other side of the world. Even if he had placed a listing device on Yuki, due to time being turned back, Scar wouldn't still have known about what had happened.
For a second Yuki thought that it was a comedic act done by some random author who had been writing the life of
Yuki Kaito. Just the thought of it alone scared him as that would mean that Yuki didn't actually have the choice to do anything. That would mean that he had no freedom.
Yuki quickly punched himself in the face with his right hand then his left. Even after that, he punched his stomach and chest just to make sure that he had control over his body. Seeing that he was able to do all of that on his own, he confirmed that he wasn't in some random story where nothing he experienced or did mattered as to the higher being reading it, it was just a piece of paper.
"Of course I'm real, what was I thinking? There could never be a being which surpassed Zero in power as what kind of monster would be more powerful than someone which transcends all logic," Yuki told himself as he finally calmed down.
"Are you okay? Why did you suddenly start beating yourself up, unless... my first guess was completely right and you thought that it was some sick joke that was made of by a random author which was writing a story to tell the tale of you and you were currently in that story which was why I was able to accurately guess that so you came to the conclusion that if that were true, you wouldn't have control over your body and everything you did was just what you were told to do which was the reason which you began to beat yourself up to see if you were a real person. Once you managed to make yourself believe that you were a real person, you finally calmed down," Scar explained to Yuki who just continued to grow worried that maybe he was just in a story. Seeing as his face began to get covered in fear as he was about to have an existential crisis, Scar began to laugh at Yuki.
"No way, don't tell me I actually managed to get this to work! This is the first time it's even worked let alone work twice in a row. I wish more people were around to see this," said Scar as he continued to laugh hysterically at Yuki.
...
Seeing as Yuki wasn't even smiling let alone laughing along with Scar, he calmed himself before telling something to Yuki.
"Come on now Yuki, I was just joking. I didn't actually mean to make you think that your life was meaningless and that every action you will ever do was planned for you before you even thought to do it let alone start on it. I would never mean to make you think that your past life and new life were all meaningless and all your suffering was part of just some silly plot which some came up with on a random day.
You who had believed that you were at the peak of everything and that not a single creature could challenge you to realize that your life is just a meaningless joke," said Scar as he kept a serious face.
"Stop that! I'm actually wondering if you can read my mind now... wait a minute, you wouldn't have..." Yuki said as his face grew to be more angry while Scar began to laugh.
"3 times in a row of mind reading?" Scar asked as he continued to laugh at Yuki who had finally figured out what had allowed Scar to make such accurate statements.
