Chapter 163

Han was a bit surprised by the request.

“I thought only the creator could do that. Was he not the one that made you lose your divinity before turning your people into a power system? Go and plead with him instead”

Yuuma took a sip and a devilish glint flashed through her eyes.

“I am pleading with him. Or rather, let’s say, I’m making a bet for the future”

It took a moment for Han to figure out what she meant, but once he did, Han couldn’t help it, he laughed out loud!! This woman was really the best! She wasn’t like anyone else he had ever spoken to before! The way her mind worked was really making him think it was good that their people were destroyed. If there was an entire race of people like her then it would not be good!

“You want me to become the creator, don’t you!?”

Han let out a few more chuckles while Yuuma could only smile slightly. She gladly accepted the new glass that Han gave her as he folded his hands on the counter. She looked into his eyes.

“And? You are already on the path of destroying him. Why not go one step further and claim it for yourself. With you up there, I know my people would be safe”

Han rose a brow. Hmm? And why do you think I would stick my neck out to help your people? I didn’t even know you existed until a few months ago. If you are really in need of such a thing then you have to give me something in return first. Your king had the right idea when he gave me the extra boost to my system. What can you do?

“And what’s in it for me?”

Yuuma cleared her throat as she finished her drink and asked for another one. Han was a bit worried about her now. Was she some kind of alcoholic? That... Can’t be good for her mind? Maybe Celestials have a higher fortitude than mortals? That would explain a lot about why she hasn’t gotten alcohol poisoning yet.

But the next words that Yuuma spoke were what made him glad that he met this alcoholic Binary.

“I can help your two companions with their system”

Han looked down at her with red eyes and his [God Eyes] dared her to lie to him. He checked every single internal action her body took, and even though she was more robot than human internally. He couldn’t see any of her human parts reacting out of sync.

“Han, what is Yuuma still doing here? And what is she doing in the records room?”

Han poked his head out from where he was handling some of the new meat that Lily hunted yesterday and smiled at Rin.

“Ah, Rin. You look beautiful as ever. Did you come here straight from bed? Look at your bed hair!”

Rin blushed and quickly ran her hand through her hair multiple times! Bed hair! She never used to have bed hair!! She just woke up and she didn’t even bother to look in the mirror – Wait! This man is distracting me!!

“Han!”

Han chuckled and came out of the room fully while cleaning his hand with a towel. He kissed Rin deeply and her blush deepened even though her scowl was still on her face! Don’t try to distract me again!

“Okay, okay. Yuuma is our very first employee. She actually doesn’t have anywhere to go and she looks like she needs the money, so I decided it would be good to put her to work in our restaurant”

Rin hummed. She could see from how Yuuma looked yesterday that the woman probably doesn’t even have any proper clothing. She was also an alcoholic that drank close to two bottles yesterday! Yes, yes. They needed to make her pay them back for those bottles first.

Han smiled as he saw how Rin was accepting his excuse like it was the truth, but really, Han was lying! Han actually didn’t care about whether or not Yuuma had a place to stay, the woman already lived for long enough on her own and he was sure that she would survive even if he threw her out on the road right now. But Han needed her around for two reasons.

The first one was because of what she would be doing to Lily and Yue soon. Han didn’t want any chances of her messing up their system and then running away like some kind of parasite. He would hunt her down and kill her, yeah. But that would just be a hassle.

“Boss, I’m done with the records. Anything else?”

Rin Woo’s eyes widened as Yuuma walked out of the record room while yawning. She was done already!? Those records usually took the better part of two hours for Rin to completely look through! How is this woman already finished!?

Han nodded to Yuuma. This was the second reason he decided to keep this alcoholic around. When it came down to analytical reasoning and calculations, who could beat a Binary?

“Great work. You can take the next hour off, but you have to come around and help us open shop once your breaks is over”

Yuuma huffed while looking away pridefully before she walked up to rest. Something like this was nothing for someone of her status!

Han chuckled at her before he looked down at Rin and he saw her looking up at him in shock. Hey, don’t be so surprised. You can see her robot parts, you know. How is it possible that she wouldn’t be one of the best at calculations?

Han gave Rin another kiss before waving goodbye as he entered back into the meat room to continue his work.. Once he was gone, Rin looked around dejectedly. What was she supposed to be doing now?
