Chaptet 82: Arthur And Caspian (1)

The garden went pregnant with silence.You can't even hear the water clashing with the rocks nor the leaves from the tree.

All they could see is each other, to the point they can feel each other breath. Caspian leaned backward, his innocent smile making the atmosphere even more creepier.

"Why aren't you saying anything? I'm going to really think that you are indeed Daeril.The boy who came back to the pas—"

"If I did confirmed that it was me, that I am indeed Daeril. What are you gonna do about it?" Ariuk finally had the courage to speak, his voice wavering. Trying to not break down and remembered all the hurtful memories.

"Then, I need your help."

That catched the man off guard.Help him?

That word seem very foreign to Ariuk but he still know that meaning.

"Help?"

"I don't know if Help is the correct word but I need some information that you know."

Caspian bit his lips, his lip bled after waiting for man to accept it his deal.All he did was said that Ariuk is Daeril but he doesn't have any evidence about that but seeing the queit man, he knew something about this Time Warp.

Finally, the wind calm down as the waterfall also continued to flow normal. Ariuk sighed, deep and low as he wanted to smack his head on the rock but he can't.

"Information you say? Fine, I'll accept it but I don't want to hear that name again, got it?"

Caspian smiled, nodding.

"But," Ariuk held his hand up.

"it's getting late and we been here for a very long time. The time here at the garden is very fast unlike inside. Cause, we are in another dimension that I created. Let's meet tomorrow at your house, 9 am sharp and no excuses."

Caspian nodded again, don't want the man to change his mind, but he is also too shocked that knowing that they are in another dimension.

That explained the whole waterfall that is also the same size of an Imperial Palace!

"That's good, let's go back." Ariuk turned his back, grabbing Caspian again and going through the door that seems very normal and then suddenly, they appeared at the entrance.

"It's better to leave early, don't want the species stomping like elephants and might turn you into a...forget it."

Caspian again, only stared at the man.

Before entering the carriage who was already prepared for him.

"Then, what ab—"

"Don't worry about that, I'll informed them that you need to leave immediately."

Again, all Caspian can do is stared at him without uttering any words. The carriage finally move, leaving the event with the moon guiding them back to the road.

Ariuk stared at the carriage, he only turned back once he find that the carriage left the gate as he went to the entrance. patting the big furry before entering, without a doubt. The people didn't notice him as they are busy having fun.

He smiled weakly, making himself invisible while going through the pact of the species dancing.

He went back to the throne, startling Zandor who stood like a statue beside the empty throne and now that Ariuk is back.

Zandor can't help but noticed again the happy vibe of the man.

"Did something good happen?"

"You could say that and oh, please informed the Throndsen that Caspian already left since he can't bid them farewell, he wants to go home and sleep."

Zandor nodded, following his Majesty command.Making his way to the Throndsen table, Ariuk sighed.

He didn't expect the boy to suddenly change his attitude, but it only excites him more. He waited decades to meet him again, and now that he is alive.He will do anything to make Caspian remembered all of it.

"Why do I was drag into this?" Alex plop down his body to one of the couch, clearly exhausted from cleaning the house without maids helping them.

Cleaning is very different from training swords! Doing household chores is even more worse than doing laps around the field 50 times!

"Big brother the one who said that Alex, since he said that there's a very important person coming here." Rośe said, changing the pillow sheet into a flowerly one.

"Can you pick a different sheet? The flowers is blinding my pride!"

"Can you stop Alex? You only sweep this size of the floor and saying that you are tired?What will your future wife react seeing that you are very lazy!"Rośe throw one pillow at him, cursing him as if he was not his brother at all.

"That's fine! Im not going to marry anyon—"

"You think I didn't knoe that you keep flirting with the our neighbor son?What his name again?Ah! It's Hamdo!"

"W-what are you talking about? Father!Rośe is accusing me of flirting with our nei—"

Oliver came to the living room with Nohae trialing behind with a tray of snacks for them to eat.

"Don't try to hide it Alex, I saw you also at the backyard flirting with him and even giggling like a girl."

Rośe laughed at Alex expression, his ears turning red from the sudden words his Father said.

Then that means everyone saw him literally flirting! Well, he can't help it seeing a really beautiful human being.

"I'm going through puberty right now!" Alex defended himself, not knowing that it only makes it worse.

"Why did they even bother trying to create the exact size of the old household?" Caspian came down with his hair nestly tied and a cloth covering his nose to avoid sniffing dust.

"Brother!Did you know Ale—"

"Stop it Rośe!"

"What the hell is happening?"

Nohae gave his young master a water to drink, he gulp it down as he gave it back to Nohae.He took a seat and remove the piece of sheet covering his nose and finally get to breath in more.

"Don't fight kids, and we don't mind inviting Hambo."

"Hambo?" It was Caspian turned to asked, taking a bread with strawberry jam and ate it.

"Brother!Hambo is our neighbor and Alex is fli—" Suddenly, Alex stood up and shove a piece of bread into Rośe mouth, stopping her fron saying it more.

"Father!Rośe keep bullying me!"

"Aish, if you guys don't stop.I'll let Nohae make you sleep outside with the dogs."

Finally, the two shut their mouth.They begin eating after the useless fight, and wow Alex flirting already at such a young age.

The snacks his Father prepared is really delicious, he didn't know that Oliver have a good cooking hand.

Maybe Angeline, Caspian mom don't know how to cook and Oliver have to learned how to do it.

"Now that I remember it, Young Master birthday is also coming up." Nohae suddenly mentioned from behind the couch, still maintaining his charming smile.

"Eh?I forgot about that."

He did really forgot that Caspian birthday is coming up, like the thought of birthday never really cross his mind as he is too busy trying to stop Samael.

And speaking of Samael, how many days have passed since he last saw him? He never saw Samael again after that nightmare saying that he is reincarnated, He didn't know that Samael is a comedian.

October 15 is Caspian birthday, it's such a coincidence that he and Caspian have the same birthday and even at the same age, isn't that amazing?

"Brother, you're getting older now and you need to find a wif— wait no you already have Gwen!" Rośe beamed, just thinking about Gwen really put her into a high spirit?

"Shut up Rośe, Brother is going to end up with Arthur! Not Gwen, although she is beautiful but you might never that she already have a boyfriend."

"No! I want Gwen for brother!"

"No!Arthur!"

"Gwen!"

"Arthur!"

Suddenly Nohae picked up the two by their collars and without mercy carried them outside the house.

Caspian look at his Father amused, Oliver only shrug with a smile and clap his hand.

"They deserved that."

"Oh, Nohae is right.You're birthday is coming up and do you want anything?"

Anything?

He didn't need anything in particular, seeing that he was never interest in anything at all.

He did have a wish but it was impossible to make it true, he shake his head.

"I don't need anything Father, I am already satisfied with what I have.I'll talk to the Headmaster about the day off for my birthday since I decided to spend my birthday here."

"That's good then " Oliver hid his proud smile, Elysian did really change his son.

"Father aren't you curious who is my guest?"

"Well, I am really curious. Are you telling me who is it?"

Caspian smirked, breaking the cookie in half with his two fingers only. "Yes, and everyone know him Father."

Adelaide stared from the top, watching the performance of each students doing their best to be qualified at the next tournament.

Her eyes scanning every students, noting who keeps going in and out of their seats.

"Are you okay Adel?" Nesrin asked, floating around with her hands behind her head, supporting it's weigh.

"Do you have any thoughts who is the real Red?" Nesrin frowned

What did Adelaide means about the real Red? Is that suppose a idiom or something?No, it's too far to be one.

"No?What are you talking ab—"

"Haish, the Red person we caught at the party wasn't the real Red.Now, Adelaide is thinking who is among these students is the real Red." Luther almost rolls his eyes towards Nesrin, who doesn't even have any clues.

"Wait, you mean one of the mole here is the real Red?Who were disguise as a student?"

Professor Xysto asked, his eyes flickering between the book he was reading and the female standing behind the glass.

Xysto didn't know why he had the Koschei Manuscript that Ms.Claire have. Let say the book caught his eyes and he can't stop reading it.

It's even weird how some of the names are familiar, or maybe the Author was only inspired by the names that she got from th—

"Hmm," The four people stood there, staring weirdly at Anastasia who keep putting marshmallow inside her mouth, trying to see how many she can fit inside her mouth.

Which is not a really great view.

Suddenly, the door opened and there stood Kevin. Khairro standing behind him with a warm smile, but his eyes are not warm at all.

"He is here Headmaster." Kevin said, stepping from the side, revealing Khairro.

"Good, thank you Kevin."
