Supreme Husband System! & Supreme Wife System!

Chapter 106: A conversation with Geminia

”How is your master?” Geminia asked, addressing the couple.

”The master is fine. But sheʼs stuck in the city, unable to leave,” Arabel replied, looking away from Idan.

”Well, itʼs her own fault for sticking her nose where she shouldnʼt have,” Geminia said with some regret, making it clear that she knew the reason why their master couldnʼt leave the city.

”Miss Geminia...” Arabel wanted to ask a question, but before she could say it, Geminia interrupted her.

”Just Geminia,” she said.

”Geminia, you said you wanted to meet with us. Can you explain why and what this place is?” asked Arabel.

”Would you like to introduce yourself first?” asked Geminia, still having fun with the fox cub.

”Ah, Iʼm sorry. I thought you already knew about us,” Arabel said, feeling awkward.

”Of course, Iʼve heard about you and watched you, but this is the first time Iʼve seen you in person. Isnʼt it customary to introduce yourself to a stranger?” Geminia replied.

”My name is Arabelle Morgan,” Arabelle introduced herself first.

”Idan, Idan Fein,” Idan immediately followed her.

”And this is our eldest, Nemo, heʼs also Milicaʼs disciple,” Idan introduced Nemo. In response, Nemo just nodded his head, greeting Geminia. At that moment, the fox cub turned his attention back to Nemo.

”Nice to meet you!” Geminia said with a smile.

”Answering your question, I am happy to say that I really wanted to meet and talk with you. If it wasnʼt for the intervention of this fool who blindly follows the rules, we would have been able to meet much earlier.”

”Fool?” asked Arabel in disbelief.

”Well, the one you call Limbo consciousness,” Geminia said with a slight note of displeasure, surprising all three of them. They were especially struck by the way she addressed this powerful being, who, without exaggeration, was the master of this small world.

”Geminia, arenʼt you afraid that...”

”That he will hear our conversation?” Geminia interrupted, and Arabel nodded in response.

”He canʼt see or hear us in this building, and even if he could, I donʼt care. He canʼt do anything against me,” Geminia said confidently.

”He is not my master, not a god, not a decree. Heʼs just an associate, so to speak.”

The trio realized that they were probably mistaken about Geminiaʼs identity.

”Let me explain a little bit. Imagine this world we are in as a huge ”playground”. And Limboʼs consciousness, mind, or will, as you would prefer to call it, acts as the judge and supervisor of this game scene.” Geminia took on the role of narrator and began to explain the structure of this small world.

”This supervisor is too strict in following the rules and doesnʼt tolerate anyone breaking them,” she said, looking at the couple.

”Are we?” Arabel asked, pointing at herself, noticing her gaze directed at them.

”Itʼs not just you. For example, your master. She broke the rules of the game and stuck her nose where it shouldnʼt have been. Because of this, the supervisor tried to get rid of her, and you know how it ended.”

With these words, she picked up the creature that had been lying on her lap and placed it on the table. By that time, it had already taken on a shape somewhat resembling a small black panda.

”As I said before, this supervisor does not tolerate when someone violates the rules he is following. His goal is to ensure full compliance with the rules during the game. As you may have guessed, the players here are outsiders who come to this playground from time to time.”

Idan and Arabel immediately noticed that Geminia, like Milica, could not speak directly. To explain to them the structure of this small world, she used comparisons with a ”playground.”

They couldnʼt understand: if she wasnʼt afraid of Limbo consciousness, then why didnʼt she say so directly?

Perhaps there is some powerful being behind Limboʼs consciousness that created these rules. And it is these rules that force her to look for workarounds, using hints and comparisons.

They understood from her words that by ”playground” she probably meant this whole small world, which is a trial. Outsiders are the trial subjects.

And that Limboʼs mind makes sure that none of them breaks the established rules.

”You know, he didnʼt even notice you at first,” Geminia said, looking at Idan and Arabel. ”It was only when you did something that caught his attention that he found your presence.”

”The system!” — Idan and Arabel exclaimed in their thoughts.

[...]

The system did not say anything in its defense. She only sent them both three dots.

”You were an unknown element to him, a mistake. Since you are not a resident of Junonia, he did not perceive you as players. But before he could finally decide what to do with you, he missed his chance and made a miscalculation. He didnʼt expect that the elf would reach out and protect you so quickly, restricting him with his own rules.”

The couple was once again very happy to have met Milica and the others after hearing such an explanation from Geminia.

”Itʼs the first time in a long time that Iʼve seen him suffer,” Geminia said with a slight smile, as if enjoying it. ”He canʼt break the deal he made with the elf, but he canʼt turn you down either. Your presence in itself violates the rules, and it constantly annoys him. At the same time, he fears that by your actions you may violate even more rules of the game, and this makes him fuss and look for ways to solve this problem.”

Geminiaʼs words didnʼt differ much from their Masterʼs opinion. However, they learned a lot of new information and received some confirmation of their old assumptions.

”Understand that the Limbo consciousness itself does not hate you as individuals. He doesnʼt tolerate you just because you break the rules heʼs trying to protect. He focuses solely on the rules. If you hadnʼt violated them, he wouldnʼt even have paid attention to you.”

With these words, Geminia was trying to convey to the couple that Limboʼs consciousness has nothing against them as people.

”What about you?” asked Idan, after listening carefully to Geminiaʼs account of Limboʼs consciousness. ”Why are you telling us about this? What do you want from us?”

At the very beginning of the conversation, Geminia said that she wanted to meet with them and talk, but still has not explained why.

She just moved on to talk about Limboʼs mind and how it focuses on following the rule.

Most of which they already knew.

”Oh, how impatient. I needed to first explain to you why Limboʼs mind is behaving this way towards the two of you before moving on to myself,” Gemini replied, looking first at Idan and then at Arabel with a smile.

Then she said, ”It would be great if you used this quality in relation to your partner, young man. It would be much more useful than rushing me.”

”Huh?”

”Huh?”

Idan and Arabel were puzzled, unable to understand what Geminia meant by saying those words.
