"I am a golden blood, on your knees, Lyon Hessel Signe."
With that order coming upon him, Lyon felt the air around the garden started getting heavy. Slowly, Lyon had his energy drained out of his body, the more he looked at those golden eyes, the more he felt weaker and submissive. Lyon took a deep breath because he started suffocating.
Lyon's leg trembled and he fell on his knees. He looked up to Uncle Aster in both fear and confusion. Uncle Aster smiled and explained about the phenomenon to pacify Lyon, "This is the trait of golden blood, hypnotizing eyes. People with golden blood have a certain amount of charisma to make people obey. Of course, a golden blood cannot influence another golden blood unless there was a clear difference in strength and charisma. I think, when Javier's golden circle contracted for the first time, he also did this to you, right?"
Uncle Aster patted Lyon's head affectionately, "Don't worry, okay? It's just a small test, it will be over soon."
Uncle Aster walked towards his husband, Uncle Rama, and then whispered something. He glanced at Lyon who was mostly powerless, and then whispered another thing. Uncle Rama listened attentively, he seemed to be a bit doubtful with this plan.
"Will it be alright? I can't guarantee this kid will live or not," he said.
Lyon's face paled when he heard Uncle Rama talking about his life with Uncle Aster. Uncle Aster nodded and replied, "If Lyon is Javier's golden circle, then it will be okay. It should be alright, as long as u don't kill him, or hurt him too much."
[Oh god, I have a bad feeling about this.]
[Pupa: Be prepared for restart.]
Uncle Rama walked towards Lyon and he cracked his knuckles. He looked down on this young man, he was Javier's childhood friend, Tuskan's son. Of course, Rama felt a bit of pity in his heart, he was also nervous, because he was not sure if he could control his power at this age. He was not young anymore.
But Aster said that it was all okay, and Rama would always trust him.
Uncle Rama sighed and said, "Stay still, kid, I don't want to hurt you too much."
The aura around Uncle Rama's body began to emit faint orange glow, he took a deep breath and clenched his fist. His fist emitted a stronger orange glow, which made Yunyu sure that it would kill him.
[Pupa, I hate to say this, but I think Aster and Rama have been blackened. We have to restart now, I don't want to die by his punch!]
[Pupa: Alright, I will prepare the restart, might need an hour.]
[Can you be more useful by accelerating the preparation?! I will die with that punch!]
Uncle Rama aimed his deadly blow at Lyon. Lyon closed his eyes, preparing for his death.
One second… two seconds… three seconds…
He felt no deadly blow on his head, nor he heard the system restart notification. He opened his eyes, and was stricken by the sight of Javier who was in deep sleep seconds ago, suddenly appeared in front of him, he shielded him and caught Uncle Rama's fist.
The same aura glowed around his body, but unlike his father, Javier's aura was golden instead of orange. He glared fiercely at his Father Rama, and his eyes were the same golden eyes as his Father Aster.
"NOBODY HURTS BIG BROTHER LYON!" Javier pushed his Father Rama with his palm and Uncle Rama was pushed far until his body hit a tree.
"Ramuja!" Uncle Aster rushed towards his husband. Uncle Rama coughed a few times, he was writhing in pain. He held the bruise on his stomach, the place where Javier put his hands on. Aster was completely astounded by the strength. He knew how powerful his husband was, even though he was already in his late fifties.
Uncle Aster turned his eyes towards his son and said, "Javier, you can stop now. It was just a test to know whether you will react or not when he is threatened."
Uncle Aster propped Uncle Rama, his golden eyes had turned normal again and he approached Javier who was standing in front of Lyon, still shielding him, "It seems Lyon is indeed your golden circle. Javier, step aside, I will remove my golden eyes suppression from Lyon."
Javier didn't move from his position, he stood still, and when his Father Aster wanted to approach Lyon who was still kneeling, Javier turned hostile and yelled at his father, "DON'T TAKE HIM! NO ONE CAN TAKE HIM, HE IS MINE!"
Javier's golden circle shone bright and the air around the garden turned heavy, but this one, it was ten times heavier than what Aster emitted. Everyone around, including General Swordheart and Uncle Rama, fell to the ground.
Their face planted on the ground, unable to move their body no matter how much they struggled.
Only Uncle Aster was immune to this. He looked at his son warily, "Javier! You are doing too much! Release them!"
"No! I will not let everyone go! Someone… SOMEONE WILL STEAL FROM ME!"
Javier's golden eyes shone even brighter, he gazed at everyone cautiously and then he pulled weakened Lyon and carried him, "Don't steal him! Don't steal my Big brother Lyon!"
Uncle Aster started to get difficulty breathing, Javier's bright golden eyes also affected him. Soon, the heavy air engulfed the whole Lantern Palace and everyone inside the palace fell with their face planted on the ground. They suffocated because it seemed that they were too weak to even take a breath.
"J—Javi… don't…" Uncle Aster said weakly. But Javier ignored his father's plea. Instead, he tightened his arm around Lyon who was lying weakly in his embrace.
[System, is this the BOOM time?]
[Pupa: Well, depends on your next answer. But knowing you, it might be the BOOM time.]
Lyon exerted so much strength just to move his lips, he said in a low, almost inaudible voice, "Javi… I… never… leave…"
Javier paused, he stared at the man on his arm right now. Lyon was very weak and powerless compared to him, although it was difficult for him to even move his face muscle, Lyon tried hard to smile at him.
Javier was hesitating. He woke up when he felt a sharp pain in his heart, and the voice in his head said that he would lose his true love if he kept being useless and let everyone stomped his pride.
Thus, he woke up immediately and rushed to protect his true love, Lyon Hessel Signe.
His true love, his golden circle, was Lyon Hessel Signe. The childhood friend that he admired when he was young, and he detested when he got older. He was stupid enough not to realize this feeling sooner.
He was in deep sleep, but in his dream, Big brother Lyon always stayed with him, he took care of him when he was unconscious, and he said that he would never leave him.
Big brother Lyon would never leave him.
Since he was young, all his mood swings, all his thoughts, had always been filled with Big brother Lyon. He was just too stupid to differentiate the feeling of adore and love.
He loved Lyon.
The moment he realized that he had found his true love, it was the same moment when he fully recovered his memory about Layla cheating with a man, even went as far as getting pregnant. For Javier, it was the proof that he was too stupid, too lenient.
Anyone would also covet Big brother Lyon in the end…
[Pupa: Ding! Fatemeter increases to 100%.]
[Pupa: Alert! Breakmeter decreases to 5%.]
Javier's golden aura thickened again, his chest started undulating up and down. Anger surged in his heart, this anger, this pain that Layla had inflicted. It was the betrayal that ruined the image of pure love that he had created since he was a kid.
Javier was convinced that his true love would also cheat on him. If Layla could cheat on him, then Lyon would too. They were twins after all.
He started imagining Lyon kissing another man behind his back, giving the man the love that he had been wishing for years. Javier knew that it was bound to happen. Because he was stupid, he was too dense to realize that nobody wanted his boring and ugly love.
The golden aura around Javier expanded even further and it engulfed the city with a heavy atmosphere. An incredible, yet scary thing happened when half of the city had been covered with heavy air and people fell unconscious due to lack of air. Their bodies were too weak to even take a breath.
Javier couldn't recognize anyone anymore, not his Father Rama, not his Father Aster. But there was only one person in his eyes, that was Big brother Lyon.
"You will also leave me, right?" Javier asked. There was a hint of sadness and desperation in his voice, "Big brother Lyon can't leave me, I will not allow it."
At this point, Lyon couldn't open his mouth at all, there was only a small breathing interval for him to stay alive. He stared at Javier with a desperate plea in his eyes, but that was all he could do.
"Everyone will try to take you away from me, just like what your twin sister did…"
Javier smiled when he got an idea. He kissed Lyon softly, a blinding golden light came out of his body. Everyone closed their eyes in response.
And in an instant, Javier and Lyon disappeared from the garden.
