Arc 4 Chapter 3.9 ( The abandoned ) part 2

A splash of blood resonated as a dull looking man nonchalantly trampled unto the holy corpse of the world consciousness .

" No one can stop me if i want to stay in this world . Not even a god does . " He muttered and flattened the face of the deity .

Playing with the divine core of the deity , the young man gave the two men standing at the side a cold glance . He immediately conjured a portal and went back to the empire .

However his body was invisible to their mortal eyes as he watched them develop year by year . Time was supposed to be fast in the eyes of an immortal being like him , but in a situation where he was abandoned by a certain someone , he felt like the time passed so slow , slower than snails do .

The former third palace became a holy residence of a deity and everyone was forbidden to enter the palace aside from the three maiden ghat served before and the palace maidens left behind by his mother .

Zone entered the palace in silence and layed his body on his bed . His eyes landed on a certain chair located at the side where Eunuch Mo usually sits on to guard him every night .

Zone weakly sighed and covered his red eyes with his forearm .

" I miss you ... Mo gege . You told me ... That if i am sad , you will be by my aide to share my sadness with you . "

" Yet where are you? "

" Why did you become the reason of my sadness instead? "

Zone slowly sat up and climb down fr his bed to crouch down and reach under for the paper he had once drawn as a child . Together with the paper , there's a dried up purple flower that was now flat .

" If this flower symbolizes my admiration for you . "

He stared nostalgically at the follower before it suddenly turned dark . The dark flower then suddenly integrated into his skin as a tattoo mark .

" Then black symbolizes my obsession towards you . "

Zone clenched his fist them weakly lied down again . " In a place full of your traces , I can't seem to want to abandon this room . "

" This room where we had once made love on and indulged in night pleasures . "

Zone rubbed the surface of the bed and sniffed on it.  " I can't measure how much i misses you , Jiro . "

A black portal suddenly appeared through thin air inside the third prince room ..A slender body then slowly walked out of it .

" Long time no see , Zone . " a gentle voice resonated .

Zone who was rubbing the surface of his bed with his cheeks like an obsessive psycho turn his crimson eyes to the direction of the slender man .

" Shade " he answered and sat up properly .

" Been along time too "

Shade was about to pull the chair at the side to sit down when he was suddenly stopped by an invisible force. 

" Don't dare use the chair that my husband once used.  "

" ... " Shade

Shade sighed helplessly then conjured himself a shadow chair and sat on it as if it was a throne.  " I just visit to give you a comfort but it seems that i am not welcomed.  "

Zone chuckled sarcastically . " No wonder , you are really fated to thread the path of a second male lead--

" Hey ! I'm not! What do you think i am? I don't like you for hell i would . " Shade rolled his eyes and comb his hair through his fingers .

" Well , i admit that i once want to own your beautiful body but it's only that and nothing else , there's no feelings involved . "

Zone gave the man a normal smile then teleported to his side to pat his back .

" You were supposed to be my male lead ... Unfortunately , the second male lead snatched that role . Hehe . "

Shade scratched his head then suddenly smiled.  " By the way ... In the Sealed Campus World , we and Shin Yuanjun ended up together . "

Zone went back to sit on the edge of the bed and stared at Shade . " That's a rather cliche pairing , Male lead and Second Female Lead . While the Second Male Lead has a tragic unrequited love with the Main Protagonist . "

Shade's handsome face then suddenly turned serious . " Then what happened to Jiro . "

Zone's face remained stoic , but when Jiro's name entered his ears . A hint of sadness flashed within his eyes then quickly disappeared .

" We had a tragic ending again ... " Answered Zone then twirled the ends of his hair .

Shade turned silent before sighing again . " He left you ... "

Zone nodded and massaged his throbbing temple . " No matter how my pride doesn't want to get that jerk husband of mine . I still have lingering yearning that he would come back and stay by my side without the restriction that i put on him . "

" Say ... Realm Agent Shade . Can you detect your fellow agent? "

Shade shook his head . " We unfortunately weren't like any animals who have bloodline connection . Agents tend to blend with people and especially has good concealment abilities . So finding your husband would be like finding a pin in a haystack . "

When he heard what Shade said , Zone almost want to give up .

" Fate really wants us to be separated hah . "

" I have been too soft hearted , if only i had not freed him . This would not have happened . "

Shade shook his head in disagreement . " You are wrong , even if you did not removed the restriction . Fate would create opportunities for him to let him run away from your grasp. "

Zone laughed in sarcasm . " Before , he chases me like a crazy agrrieved husband . But knowing what i have done to him ... He now wants to be away from me . It really makes one to burst out of anger . "

_Just who told you to seal his ability? Look at the consequences of your actions . _

But of course there's no way Shade would voice that out to Zone . He just conjured a table them poured himself a cup of wine .

" Let's just drown our sorrows with wine . Numb your brain for a while and forget about him . "

Zone stared at the wine them slowly nodded .

He also want to forget Jiro for a while . He can't just live suffocating from the sorrows of the pain and abandonment of his husband .

" I feel like shit ... So shitty that this situation resembles a woman being divorced by her husband who lost his burning love for her . "

Zone drank the wine then rudely put it down . Shade inwardly chuckled .

" Since he left you ... Put your attention for him to other interesting things instead . "

Zone then lifted his left brows then smiled . " What interesting things . "

" Let's hop worlds for fun ... Learn some things like hacking , car racing , immortal cultivation , become a celebrity or become a cops . "

" Role playing could be quite fun you know . "

" Weren't the things we're doing could already be considered role playing ?. I'm already role playing as a prince already.  "

" ... I mean ... Yeah , you have a point . Won't you just keep on reincarnating and reincarnating until you forget him? I'm sure you'll meet another man again in your life . Move on , there's a lot of man in the universe more handsome than Jiro . "

Zone drank another glass of wine and listened to Shade's way of reverting his attention from his husband to something interesting that Shade narrated .

From jokes to dramas , gossips and talking about certain topics . Shade's plan on comforting the wounded heart of his friend gradually turned successful as Zone fell asleep peacefully this time .

Shade went to the edge of the bed and stared closely at Zone's sleeping face . A sad smile surfaced upon his face as he slowly raised his hand to touch Zone's cheeks .

_ Heh Zone ... I am actually just joking . I like you actually . _

_ but who would have thought that i am actually more in denial than your husband . _

_ don't we look like a triangle of clowns? Denying our feelings because of a mere pride . _

Shade smiled then touched Zone's hands before kissing the back of it gently .

_ i know I can't make you my own , but let me indulge my fate of being a second male lead for a while ok? _

_ taking the role of a tragic perfect second male lead sounds interesting . _

_ if we're inside a novel , readers might like me hehe . _

_ I've been obsessed with reading fictional novels lately and wanted to try taking the role of a cupid and second male lead at the same time . _

_ who wouldn't fall inlove with a face so beautiful like this? _

_ but you're already someone else's man . _

Warm kiss dropped unto the man's forehead as the figure of Shade disappeared through the black portal. 

The sleeping man turned over and slowly opened his crimson eyes.  He touched his forehead that was kissed and slowly shook his head. 

" I thought you are my disguised husband ... But i could still not feel his presence from you . ",

" I hope you'll not take your plan on playing the role of a second male lead seriously, Shade . Or you might really fall for me and fall into the tragic ending of stereotypes . "

Zone muttered and massaged his temple .

" I might as well consider his suggestions . "

--

Early in the morning Doze , Uno and Zone departed from the ancient world and reincarnated to pass time and forget tragic pasts .

--

A purple haired man watched Zone's actions through the ball then slowly closed the crystal ball in exhaustion .

The purple haired man thoughtfully touched his chin .

" As usual ... Beauty can forget the past easily as if it were junks . "

A hateful and agrrieved express then surfaced upon his face. 

" Just like how he forgot about me ... His ex . "

" Although our relationship wasn't as deep as how other already rolled in the sheets . I could still be considered as his first love .. Right? Hehe , this will be fun . "

" I want to play the role of the ... RETURN OF THE PROTAGONIST'S EX "

" Hahahahaha ...-- "

The purple man suddenly choked and coughed .

" Fcc ... Can't fate just let me indulge in my stupidity!!! ""

--

Two figures sat between a circular table and were also drinking wine to pass time . Doze leaned back weakly and rudely put down the small cup of wine he had just drank .

" How long have you been staying at Master's side before , Uno? "

The blonde man across him put his cheeks om his cheeks and twirled the cup of wine in his hands. " I have been accompanying master even before he even became a transcendant .... "

There's a nostalgic expression upon Uno's eyes as he gazes at Doze . " Even before he created you . "

Uno seems to be unwilling on telling Doze about their past life and closed his eyes .

" I made a terrible sin , and caused master a big harm . "Uno weakly sighed and buried his face within his knees. His hoarse voice weakly resounded as he speaks out his thoughts .

" Everyone dislikes my master , and just like what Zeke said to master before . He was indeed cruel and evil in his past life . "

Uno then chuckled in disdain . " But they don't even know how pure and kind my master was before he transcended and got cursed by malicious people . "

Doze doesn't really know a lot about his real master. All information about him was sealed but he subconsciously want to protect him as his child .

" Aside from us , does master have other subordinates? "

Uno nodded . " Dos , Tres , Quattro , Sinco , Siez , Siete , Ottso Niebe all the way to you , Doze , the last one. "

" But they were scattered and hidden somewhere . " .

" Replenishing their strength to counter-attack the enemies . "

Uno clenched his fist as his eyes turned cold. " Especially to the one who cursed my master. "
