Chapter 19 - Sorry, Cinnamon Roll
Ninety-nine percent of the people present might not know that it was the fur of the Ten-Coloured Cockatrice, but Aryan belonged to the other one percent.
He looked at the two people who came in. Although they were disguised under magic, their real appearance could not be concealed from him.
The first one who entered was an elf with silver hair and silver eyes. Turns out that he was a Pureblood elf, Aryan laughed and glanced slightly at the person beside him.
The figure behind the elf was taller. Although he looked like a teenager, he already had the body of an adult.
Aryan’s jade-like eyes lit up with just a glance. Those black hair and purple eyes. He’s a demon? And a primeval demon at that?
He didn’t see the Demons’ unique bone wings, but the young man before him could even disguise his appearance. It was very likely that he hid his bone wings.
Moreover, the fur was from a Ten-Coloured Cockatrice which was a ninth-grade ferocious beast. How could an average person kill it?
Therefore, the demon in front of him certainly must be a primeval demon. He could already kill a ninth-grade ferocious beast at such a young age. How terrifying would his strength be once he grew up?
Aryan already loved to laugh to begin with. Now, he laughed even more, which made him look all the more adorable.
He immediately got up to approach the demon. Slightly looking up, he asked Samael in a clear and melodious voice, “Was the beautiful fur yours?”
The moment he saw Manzy Argoux, Suo Fei became absent-minded. His brain revved up a gear, as it simulated countless scenarios of how he would die a bizarre death. In the end, there was a freeze-frame with four, big words that were the colour of blood: ‘How could I survive?’.
Suo Fei was completely taken by surprise to meet Manzy in such an unexpected place. Both of them looked at each other. He didn’t want to say anything, he only wished to turn around and run.
Of course, he wasn’t sure whether he would be able to escape.
He thought that Manzy would arrest and question him, even kill him, but in reality, Manzy turned his gaze away after motionlessly staring at each other for a long time.
He didn’t say anything, neither did he do anything. His expression changed from a profound look to a look of indifference, as if he didn’t know the person before him.
Suo Fei was momentarily at a loss, his expression suddenly confused. Manzy had such an irritable temper so how could he not stab him to death?
What in the world is happening?
As he was feeling doubtful, Suo Fei woke up from his daze by a clear and melodious voice.
He shifted his gaze away from Manzy and looked to his side.
Aryan was standing next to Samael, his short golden hair was dazzling. His green eyes were full of admiration. He had a clean and delicate appearance. Because of the small dimples at the corner of his mouth, he looked more likable.
Suo Fei who was a shou-con at heart felt restless, itching for some ‘action’. This cinnamon roll is such a cute little shou! He is just like in the game, truly beautiful…
However, Aryan’s next sentence struck Suo Fei silly.
“Would you like to stay with me tonight?”
These words were all addressed to Samael. Suo Fei was only a listener.
Although he was only a listener, his heart still stirred into a tempestuous storm. I knew it. Plot-kun, you’re irreversible huh? These two talents had just met. He had only said a few words but he was already openly hooking up with him?
Even if this was a highly erotic danmei masterpiece, was it really okay to be that blatant?
But cinnamon roll, you’re so liberal, this Gege gives you a ‘like’.
Suo Fei was happily fantasizing but then he caught a glimpse of Manzy out of the corner of his eye. He sharply came to his senses. Give like, my ass! You two can’t hook up together yet!
He counted on the PK between Manzy and Samael for him to escape this hell-hole, okay?
I cannot afford to be dragged down by your cinnamon roll, ultimate gong daren.
When Suo Fei realised this, he abruptly grabbed Samael’s hands and flatly refused, “No.” Sorry, cinnamon roll. I will surely let you two who are so in love become friends with benefits afterward!
His voice was too haughty. He even rejected on behalf of others. If Aryan had a hot temper, he would have already lost it. However, Aryan was only slightly startled. Then he looked at Suo Fei and smilingly asked, “Why?”
Suo Fei didn’t know how to answer. He definitely couldn’t explain to Aryan his enmity with Manzy, right?
Since he couldn’t say it, he just clammed up. He pouted his lips and held Samael’s hand tightly, as if he wouldn’t let go even if he was killed.
Samael who was one of the people involved kept silent. However, instead of Suo Fei holding his hand, he changed it to him holding Suo Fei’s hand.
Suo Fei didn’t notice this small detail, but Aryan did. He squinted his eyes but didn’t say anything.
Manzy who had been sitting on the sidelines finally spoke.
He walked towards Suo Fei. He deliberately softened his gaze as he whispered, “Fey, stay.”
Must I stay if you asked me to? Then, if you wanted to behead me, must I give my head to you? Huh?
These roasts that were building up in his stomach reached his lips, but instead came out as a sharp reply, “No.”
Manzy didn’t get angry. He stared at Suo Fei and enticed in a low voice, “Don’t you want to know what happened in Valinor?”
The dauntless Suo Fei was shot.
The marksman Manzy shot another fatal arrow, “Vixanne… Don’t you care about her?”
Blackmail! This is definitely blackmail!
Unfortunately, he couldn’t do anything even if he knew that it was blackmail. Manzy surely knew what happened after he escaped. Right now, it is necessary for him to know what is Vixanne’s actual condition.
He was also curious. What kind of medicine did Manzy take? Manzy Argoux abhorred those who betrayed the Elves so why is it that he always felt that Manzy is very tolerant of him?
Although he was in fact innocent, it was a fact that Sofey’s father did such a thing. If he said that he was innocent, who would believe him?
He weighed the options and found that he could only compromise for now. Hence, he chose to stay.
Suo Fei arrived at the city lord’s residence. Although it was his first time coming, it was not his first time seeing it.
As a matter of fact, he was very impressed by Mauer City. Aryan was his first capture target when he played the game, therefore he had high interests and was very eager to start.
In order to pique the interests of the players, the game developers set Aryan’s character as a soft and tender sweetheart. Although he had an important position as the city lord, he was easy to please. Capturing him was simply too easy compared to the other lil’ shous.
He was also very efficient. When they first met, Aryan pretended to be reluctant to his kisses but soon gave in and reached the first base in one night. Then, he hit a home run in just three days. This made Suo Fei who had just started playing 《Yalance》 yell out ‘GOOD!’
But now, all these benefits belonged to Samael. Sigh… what a pity.
Suo Fei frequently sneaked glances at Samael when he thought of this, his heart filled with envy.
Aryan acted his part as the host to everybody. He prepared a sumptuous dinner, however, Suo Fei lost his appetite when he saw Manzy.
Instead, the cub, who had been nestling in his clothes, caught a whiff of the aroma, howled and then jumped out with a pair of sparkling eyes.
As soon as it came out, Aryan’s eyes sparkled with interest. He who was initially eating gracefully, disregarded etiquette and trotted over. A look of longing could be seen in his eyes as he ogled at the little cub.
Aryan looked at Samael, and asked in a whisper, “Can you sell it to me?” He felt that he was being rude again after asking so he quickly added, “I- I just really like it. I’ll give you anything you want within my power.”
His pair of bright eyes were full of expectation as he stared at Samael.
This conversation and this scene were very very very familiar to him. It was clearly what Aryan said to Samael in the game. At that time, the ultimate gong character that he played smiled evilly. He raised Aryan’s fair chin and said in his deep, sexy voice, “I want you. Is that okay?”
Suo Fei was excited. He was no longer the ultimate gong and he was not Samael, but he was still able to see the plot unfold before his eyes. This feeling of being a spectator of a gay AV. Aiyo, it’s so amazing!
He locked his gaze at Samael and waited for him to say his very important lines. As he wished, Samael looked at Aryan and smiled gently. Although Suo Fei could not tell whether it was the legendary evil smile, it was definitely the smile of a gong. So handsome!
It’s coming. Get ready everybody, he’s about to say one of the classic hook-up lines…
“It’s not mine. You asked the wrong person.”
Ara…
Your lines are wrong, boy.
Suo Fei was stunned and turned to glance at Aryan. Aryan stood at a loss for words, his big eyes filled with tears. He blushed as he did in the game, but it was not because he was acting coy. He was blushing scarlet because he was slapped in the face, alright…
However, Samael only said the truth, making it impossible to refute.
This little cub was really not his.
Suo Fei wanted to ease the awkward silence, but what could he say? Should he coax Aryan and give the little cub to him? Please.Even though he treats Samael as a brother, the little cub went through life and death with him (during the Nightmare Fiend incident). He would certainly not give away his sworn brother…
Okay, I lied. The truth is that the little cub’s fur is so beautiful that he is reluctant to give it away.
Manzy His Highness, who should not have appeared on the set, was extremely calm. As if he didn’t hear anything, he finished a large piece of pig trotters.
Aryan who was filled with grievances could only return to his seat.
They ate in complete silence.
The little cub who was the cause of the incident thought: This divine beast is so invincibly charming. Everybody scrambles to become my servant. Serve me then, foolish mortals. 。╮(╯▽╰)╭。
Although the dinner was very unpleasant, Aryan was really soft and gentle. After recovering from his embarrassment, he enthusiastically arranged rooms for Samael and Suo Fei and carefully informed them.
When he was leaving, he threw a glance at the little cub then threw more glances at Samael.
Samael and the little cub had no reaction, so Suo Fei who was a spectator felt terribly ashamed. I’m really sorry, cinnamon roll. Rest assured, you willget into the ultimate gong’s bowlsooner or later!
When he entered his room, Suo Fei tucked the sleeping little cub into the bed. Then, he sat in a chair by the bedside and silently waited.
There was a knock on his door after a short while.
The author has something to say:
Years later:
Suo Fei: Lil’ shous, get into this daye’s bowl.
Samael: En?
Suo Fei: …… (smiles fawningly) I-I will get into your bowl.
Samael: (pats head) Good.
Suo Fei: (gets into the bowl): Cheh, I dare you to find a bigger bowl!
