Chapter 83: Arthur And Caspian (2)

"Do you need something from me Grandma?"

Adelaide spun around to face the male, her eyes boring holes into him as if she is observing the male with her glistening eyes.

Nesrin drop to the ground, taking a seat next to Xysto who is feeling uncomfortable with the sudden turn of an atmosphere.

Should she risk the thought of asking Khairro, or revealing him to everyone?

David came inside, his hand behind his back

and close the door tightly.

His usual cold face is slightly frowning, Khairro didn't know what the hell is happening and why is everyone so quiet the minute he walk in? Did the plan fai— No it worked with Claire so doing it at the other will also work.

"Woah, is there something wrong Grandma?Did the other mole move?"

Khairro tried to laughed but it only came awkwardly.

"It is not that, but..." Adelaide gulped down, her hand clenching behind her back.

She need to have the courage to talk to him.

The memories flashing through her eyes as she silently muttered, her pupil shaking.

Khairro frowned, not hearing what Adelaide is trying to say.Come on, he is starting to get really annoyed plus the whole tense atmosphere makes him uncomfortable.

"Come on and say it Grandm—"

"Khairro, please stop this game. We all know that you are the real Red."

"I think I need to check my eyesight." Oliver said, closing his eyes and opening it again just to see if the real deal is infront of him.

Seeing that it is indeed him, he bowed. Nudging the both to do the same which they did in confused.

Caspian sweatdropped, looking back and forth between his family and Ariuk.He didn't exactly tell his Father who is their guest and he regret not telling it.

He forgot that Ariuk might recognize Nohae!

But the two never say anything word and just casually gave each other a warm smile.

"It's our pleasu—"

"No it's okay and just drop the formal greeting. You can call me by my name,"

Ariuk said, his voice gently telling them and they did stop from the sudden melody entering their ears.

"Father, I want to marry him."

Rośe subconciously pointed at him, tugging Oliver's sleeve with a blush on her face.Her eyes observing the male up and down, even if his face is blur. The sound of his voice can make everyone swoon.

Oliver sweatdropped, with the three following it as Rośe is busy checking out the guest with her predator eyes.

'When did she learn to do that?'

Caspian thought, scratching his cheeks.

But, she still accomplished the household chores and it is indeed sparkling clean to the point you can see your own reflection on the floor.

"We prepared a spot for Ariuk to relaxed.I'll bring the food to them Nohae." Oliver said, Nohae only nodded in agreement before fleeing from the scene.

Nohae can't let Ariuk take him ba— no actually he is back but still hiding in the shadow. He just need to wait for the perfect time to make his appearance again.

Hoping that his parents is still alive and breathing, it's been decades since he last saw them.

"Thank you very much Sir Oliver.I want to have a talk with your son if you don't mind?"

"No, it's okay.Did my son did something to you Sir Ariuk?"

Ariuk shake his head, "No sir, he is actually very friendly and kind."

"That's good then, oh Rośe and Alex will accompany you to the balcony."

The Four left, the two at the front while Ariuk and Caspian behind them in a slow pace, enjoying the friendly atmosphere.

They arrive at the huge balcony with a table for two, the two left after they settle in.

People do really love sweets, seeing that there is alot of it at the table. Ariuk don't mind but he don't want to have diabetes after this.

"Before we start, there is also questions that I can't answer at all, they will punished me if I did that."

Without waiting, Caspian quickly went to their business which what Ariuk promise hin yesterday that he will tell any information.

"You already know that I am not Caspian right?" Caspian said, leaning back as he crossed his arms on his chest.

"Yep, but do you remember your nightmare with Samael?" Ariuk asked, picking up the tea cup and placing it gently on his lips.

"Definitely, I will never ever will forget that moment where my heart literally stop.Why do you even brought that up anyway?"

"Well, he did mentioned about you being reincarnated right?"

Reincarnated? Now he remembered it.

Samael did mentioned him about reincarnated and waiting for him, maybe Samael mistook him for someone else, but it worries him that something may happen if he keep rejecting it, but he's only telling the truth!

Even the Headmaster, told him about this world Azazel, saying before he died. He said his 'real' name which is Caspian Smythe, his name right now!

"Yes, and I think Samael mistook me for some—"

The tea cup clang when Ariuk place it down suddenly, it's awkward without seeing Ariuk's eyes but it's best to avoid his piercing stare.

"No, let me answer that. He didn't mistook you for someone else,"

"Huh? I thought he was joking..."

"Did you even think that as a joke?Why would he appeared or waste his mana just to joke?Aish, you really don't remember huh?" Ariuk sighed, faceplanting on the table which shook the table.

Caspian gulped, he never really thought that it was real. Maybe, Samael is indeed joking but Ariuk knows everything.

Gosh, why did he even went here in the first pla— No, why did someone transport him here when he wants to die peacefully!

"Tell me, how did I end up here?"

The tension makes him shiver, his pale skin getting sticky as the sun shine at him, and only him!

Is that why he was sweating?!

"Sorry but I can't answer that."

"Eh?Then, do you know that you guys are not real at all? You guys are just characters in the—"

"Characters huh? The Hero Reincarnated, we exist in that book right?"

Caspian slowly nodded his head, he didn't dare to see what Ariuk reaction is, but he doesn't have one at all anyway.

He put his hand together, his shaking hand continued. He wish that no one will come here and wondered what the hell is happening and wh—

"Let me tell you something, I don't have much time to spend here since I need to do some business." Ariuk gentle voice suddenly changed.

"There some question that I can't really answer but I'll do my best to tell you something. You are close with the Imperial Prince right? Which is Arthur Throndsen, or should I say Noah Willsby."

Ariuk grab a napkin and damp it to his lips,

he saw the male's head down as trying to calm himself down.

He smiled, "You know Anastasia, the race who can predict the future. I remember that there are two soul 100 years ago, met each other again by fate. The one soul who died at the war of the Demon King and Ophelia.

Sadly, one of the soul memories were still intact the day he was reincarnated. While, the other were totally erased."

Ariuk stop, wanting ti get any reaction from the boy who's head down. He wanted the truth, so he'll give him the halfway truth.

"You see, I know what really happened back there at the war.Indeed there are two soul, but the other soul vanished as if they never exist in the first place.The other soul, did his all just to see where he went, did he die or did someone took him away, the soul did their best but sadly die trying to find the other soul."

Caspian close his eyes, first of all.He didn't expect the conversation to go down to this point. He should never do th— no, he need to find the truth but all did Ariuk said is the halfway to the truth?

Does that mean this is the half? The others didn't know what really happened and thought that the person died, but who the hell is those two soul?

"To answer your question, the two soul is Noah Willsby and Azazel Jones."

Thump.

"I talked to the Headmaster about you going at the party instead of her, I want to meet you for a very long time."

What did he just said?Caspian slowly lift his head.Wanting to see the man infront of him but his forehead forned creases.

Ariuk face, the blur is getting thinner.As Caspian can finally see some part of Ariuk's face.Shapr jawline, a perfect long straight nose, green emerald eyes with a beauty mark under his right eye.

His long brown hair tied and hang loosely on his shoulder, Caspian felt his heart stop as the moment he stared at the man's face.

"It's nice to see you again, Azazel."
